 gressive leaders of those states The

 paign cost less than $160,000," he said
 "Of this total of less than $160, ,000 that We spent from our Washington headQuarters over the entire nation, more than $5O,O00 was expended in printing. and distributing literature and for the running expenses of the Washington bureau, I put just S100 into the South Dakota campaign. The total sum expended in the Nebraska primary was $7000 This does not in clude the expenses of special trains for Colonel Roosevelt which were paid for from another fund
 | Merely to show how ridiculous ! were the claims in this connection, wish to relate this incident: At one | time I went to the capitol one Satur- | day and drew on my personal salary iaccount as senator to get sufficient money to pay the salaries of the stenographers of the Washington | bureau for that week. An uncle o1 Clifford Pinchot, who was in Europe made the largest individual contribu. tion to the preconvention in Roose- welt campaign fund. We did not ge q single dollar for this fund from any l corpOration. All the contribution. were from individuals. Less thar

he continued, lis bound, if ne is an honest man to state that I acted in absolute good faith, and that if any contribution was made by the Stand ard Oil it was without by knowledge, in spite of my absolute prohibition. The proof of the pudding is in eating. Every trust-controlled newspaper in the land is doing everything in it's pow CT to beat me Do you think those trust papers would be trying to beat me if I had been satisfactory to the Standard Oil and that crowd?"
 They are against me because not one trust not one individual, was able to use to influence me while I was presi- dent. That's why they hate me. Sc much for the ink Now for the cuttle- fish.

NATURAL HISTORY.
Col. RooseveIt's Dsquisition on the
 CuttIefish.

WILKESBARRE, Aug. PA severe attask upon Senator PenrOse of Penn sylvania was made tonight by Roose- welt. The senator, he said, was like a cuttlefish, which lacking courage to fight it's enemy. "squirts ink" in the hope that it may escape In denounc- ing the senator, Roosevelt repeated his denial that he had known of any Standard oil contributions to the pres idential campaign fund of 1904.
 Roosevelt's speech was made in the armorv at a meeting held in connection with the jubilee of Rev. Father Curran. After Roosevelt had paid tribute to Father Curran, he said: And now a word about honesty. We can't have any reform unless we have honestly in both business and politics. By a natural sequence of thought l now come to Senator Penrose, of Pennsyl- Vania
 Recently certain definite and specific charges were made against Senator Penrose. I personally know nothing o1 them and had not even looked into the charges until Penrose succeeded IT riveting my attention upon him. Yes terdav he got up in the senate to deny those charges and brought to beaI charges against me. I call your atten' tion to the analogy of Senator Penrose among the inferior forms of anima life-the cuttlefish When the cutie fish is attacked by an enemy which i lacks the courage to attack 1t squlrts ink. and tries to escape trusting tha the enemy will attack the ink inSteaV of the cutlefish I now propose to cleal awav the ink and the attack on thu l cuttlefish.
 'The statement of Penrose is tha he heard that by my direction $1OO,OO

Consent of Congress Will Not Be Asked for Pro lection of American Lives and Property in Jeopardy in Nicaragua
STATE DEPARTMENT
 HAS PRECEDENTS
If Naval Forces Now There and on Way Are Not Sufficient More Will Be Rushed to Troubled Re public
ASSOCIATED PRESS D1sPArcH1

WASHINGTON, Aug 22.-The state department is determined to extend the fullest possible measure of protection to American life and property in Nica- ragua It was announced today that if the naval forces in that country. re- inforced by the large marine contin- gent now being assembled at League Island and the several hundred blue jackets enroute to Corinto on the Cali fornia and Denver are not sufficient to assure protection, more forces will be rushed forward. The state department is unmoved by the utterances in con gress, relying implicitly and confident ly upon the long line of precedents, where the American military and naval forces have been employed without congressional direction in cases where American life and property were in jeopardy.
 Officials say that is the sole purpose of the landing of the marines and bluejackets in Nicaragua. It would not have been found necessary to send any especial instructions to the American Minister Weitzel or Captain Terhune, of the Annapolis.
 The reported killing of two Ameri- cans, Dodd and Phillips, in Nicaragua, is being investigated by the depart ment Dodd, the Mississippian who was slain, was well known to Repre- sentative Sisson of Mississippi, who said that Dodd and his father were lawyers in his congressional district.
