New York, Oct. 3.-That President
Roosevelt sent Secretary of State Root
to this city to look into the manage
ment of the national Republican cam
paign and that Mr.. Root reported that

ton of campaign funds by Treasurer

high authority" 1t was also stated
that the president and Mr.. Taft had
objected to the collection Of cam
paign funds from some of the corpora
tif,ns with which Mr.. Sheldon is inti-
mately associated. From others 1t is
said Mr. Sheldon experienced difficulty
In securing contributions.
Mr.. Root is said to have reported
that Chairman Hitchcock was not re-
spopsible for any Of the conditions

OFFICIALS IN CONFLICT.
Russians in Dispute Over Care Of
Cholera Patients.

st. Petersburg, Oct. "A conflict
has arisen between General Dracheff-
ski, prefect of st. Petersburg, and the
municipal sanitary commission over
the premature discharge of cholera
patients from the city hospitals. AS
soon as the attention OF the prefect
was allied to the danger of infection
from, this source he issued an order
that all patients be detained until the
cholera germs had completely disap-
peared. The members of the commits
sion declare this course to be imprac.
ticable so long as the epidemic con-
tinues.
Experiments are being conducted at
several Of the hospitals with a new
anti-cholera serum discovered by an
Italian named Serimberi, but the re-
suit so far has not been conclusive.
The rabbis of st. Petersburg have
recommended thae the Jewish popula.
ton disregard the customary fast of
Yom Kippur on Oct. because alb
stinence is favorable to cholera. This
recommendation is said to be without
precedent.
The death from the cholera of Mich
olaf Pavloff- -Silvansky, professor OF
meteorology at the Institution fol
Higher Learning for Women, removes
one of the most brilliant of the young
er Russian historians.

New York, Oct. 3.-An investiga-
ticn which followed the discovery that
a diamond sunburst was missing from
the warerooms of Oliver M. Ferrand, a
Maiden lane diamond importer, has

Jewels valued at $50,OO0 are known to

years and it seems possible that when

CHINESE SMUGGLING
RING on THE BORDER
Government Inspectors Alleged
TO Be Involved.

San Francisco, Oct 3.--The Chron.
icle publishes a statement to the ef-
feet that the recent changes in the
immigration department in this state
were the result of an Investigation
disclosing widespread corruption in
the service along the Mexican border
by which hundreds of Chinese have
gained illegal entrance to the United
States during the past two years. The
details of the plot, which is alleged
to involve Chinese and Mexican resi-
dents of Mexico and Southern Califor-
MIA as well as Americans holding Off
cial positions. are said to have been
communicated by one of the govern
ment agents who discovered the exist.
ence of the smuggling ring. 1t is said
that the prices paid were S275 for
delivering a Chinaman at Los An
geles, or $500 for landing him unmo-
Tested In New York
During these two years. 1t Is af-
firmed, small bands of Chinese, in box
cars and on county roads, were being
arrested and deported. 1t is now as
serted that many of these were labor
ers from Mexico, who were desirous q
being returned to China without eX.
pense to themselves.
The Chronicles informant has dis
closed the names of Chinese, Mex
leans and Americans alleged to have
composed the ring. IT is said that the
government, after securing sufficient
evidence to warrant summary action
chose to dismiss for incompetency a
number of the immigration officers on
the border rather than bring criminal
prosecutions.

Chairman Mack Arraigns Re-
publican Treasurer.
STATEMENT IS ISSUED
Charges That Fund Collector Is Con.
nected With No Less Than Seven.
teen Corporations and Declares That
for This Reason Governor OdeII in
1902 Refused to Permit Sheldon to
Be Named for Lieutenant Governor.

New York, Oct 3.-Chairman Mack
of the Democratic national committee
made an attack on the corporation
affiliations of George r. Sheldon,
treasurer of the Republican national
committee, charging that Mr. Sheldon
was at this time connected with no
less than seventeen financial CON-
panies. Mr.. Mack made the following
statement:
"The trust and corporation affilia.
tions of George r. Sheldon, treasurer
of the Republican national committee,
for the past ten years make interest
ing reading in view of the recent de-
velopments in the campaign.
II wish to recall in this connection
that because of these very associa-
tions Of his Governor Odell in 1902 re-
fused to permit the party leaders to
put Mr.. Sheldon in nomination for
lieutenant governor.
Governor Odell at that time de-
clared that he would not accept the
ticket If Sheldon were named as his
running mate. But while the Repub-
lican party has refused to put up Mr..
Sheldons name for a public office 1t
has for the identical reasons for this
refusal selected him for its campaign
fund collector.
This cannot be denied. Most Of
the corporations with which Mr.. Shell
don is identified are capitalized for
millions. How much of their stocks
are of the liquid variety can be easily
ascertained. Yet Mr. Roosevelt has
defended him and his
Resignation Was Not Demanded
when Mr.. Du Pont was invited to step
down and out. Mr.. Du Pont was only
identified with one trust, while Mr..
Sheldon is at the present time inti-
mately identified with no less than
seventeen prominent financial con-
Germs.
.iOne of these, the Bethlehem Steel
company, does not employ union labor
and has opposed the organization OF
its employees for the past sixteen
years.
'Mr Sheldon is director of that
company. He is also treasurer and
director of the North American COM
papy, capitalized for $30,000.000, a
concern known as the mystery Of
Wall street 1t is but few years
back since he was prominently identi-
fed with the whisky trust A glance
at his connections with various COM
panies for the past ten years will ex-
plain tersely the reason of his present
POSITION. No further comment OF
mine Is necessary"
The corporations named by Mr..
Mack include railway, industrial and
financial concerns here and elsewhere.
Chairman Hitchcock of the Repub-
lican national committee was shown
Chairman Mack's attack on Treasurer
Sheldon. but declined to make any
statement.
Mr. Sheldon said the statement did
not contain anything to which he de
sired to make reply.
