Observation-Disclosures Roosevelt
occupied the witness chair three and
a half hours before the senate investi-
eating committee, defending his ad-
ministration, himself and his cabinets
against what he termed Infamous
charges" and "hearsay evidence"
He appeared before the committee
to answer statements made in August
by John D. Archbold that the Standard
Oil company had given 100000 to the
Republican campaign fund in 1904 un-
der the impression that President
Roosevelt knew of and approved &C.
ceptance of the contribution. Not
only did Colonel Roosevelt DENY this.
but he put into the records a sweep
ing denial that he had ever solicited
funds from anyone while president:
that any money had been received
by the 1904 campaign committee with
an express or implied promise of fav-
ors from the administration: that ex-
cesslve funds had been used in his
I9o4 campaign or in the 1908 cam
palgn' or that money ever had been
improperly used in his behalf, so far
as he knew.
). r. Morgan testified that he had
contributed $4,000 to the last two
presidential campaigns. Testimony
was also brought out that in the cam
pa1gn OF 1904 John P. Archbold, H. c.

given 100000.
