Chicago Sept 25.-Goyernor Charles !.
Of Oklahoma at midnight tonight resigned
as treasurer Of the democratic national
committee. His resignation was announced
by himself three hours after his arrival in
Chicago from Guthrie, Okla, and after he
had conferred with officials Of the demo-
cratic national headquarters here.
In giving out his decision, Mr.. Haskell,
in response to a question. declared he did
not desire to be responsible for any embar-
rassment which might result to the demo-
cratic party by his retaining the Office of
treasurer.
That his resignation is the direct result
of the charges made against him by W.
r. Hearst and President Roosevelt is also
admitted. At the same time he did not
by his resignation intend to admit that
any Of the charges were true.
The resignation of Governor Haskell as
forwarded to Chairman Mack tonight
reads:

Democratic National Committee, New

the president, In his answer to Mr.. Bryan

merit

naming in any way connected with the
