PRESIDENT Re, TcoA7 Is VERSION
Discusses Hartman Controversy With
Callers at White House.

WashIngtoc, April president
Roosevelt discussed with a number OF
his callers various features of the con.
troversy between Mr.. Hartman and
himself, growing out of the publica.
ton OF the letters between them.
To his friends, the president made
1t plain that his version of Mr.. Harri.
mans visit preceding the election of
1874 was that Mr.. Hartman wanted
assistance from the national Repub,
lican committee to help Chairman
Odell in the New York state cam.
paign, towards whose expenses he
(Harriman) had raised 100000. The
president promised to communicate
with Messrs. Cortelyou and Bliss TO
case, he declared just what he had
done in other instances where he had
been appealed to to help in state cam.
paigns.
To some of his visitors the presi.
dent referred to the statement made
Albany, in which he said that it has
never been denied that $4,000 was
turned over by the Equitable, Mutual
and New York Life Insurance com.
panies to Mr.. Cortelyous committee
and that congress has refused to make
contributions of 1904 or to pass a
law prohibiting such contributions In
the future.
The president said, to his own
knowledge. about a dozen contribu.
/. tions offered by corporations had been
declined by Chairman Cortelyou, but
that others had been accepted. A con.
tribution by the American Tobacco
company, he said, had been returned.
A prominent man had made a contri-
button Of $4,000 to the Republican
campaign fund. Subsequently, this
man had made known his desire for
an appointment in the diplomatic ser
vice in the event that the president
was elected. AS soon as his motives
were understood the national commit
tee returned his contribution. The
president asserted to his callers that
none OF the corporations contributing
to the campaign fund in 1904 had
come to him for favors, either direct
ly or indirectly. In this connection
the president referred to the legisla
ton enacted regarding corporations
during the last two years as disprov
ing any imputations that immunity
would be shown them for their con
tributiOns.

BOSTON TRANSFERS GO OUT
Men Warned by Union Officials to

Boston, April -four hundred

TO enforce a demand for an increase

that the trouble would spread to some
Of the smaller concerns who have thus
far refused to sign the union agree

to the Boston union by Cornelius p,
Shea, international president.
In order to avoid the troubles wit

and to engage in no disturbances.
