T.. R. REPLIES
TO TESTIMONY
Never Asked Cent of Harri-
man" He Declares.

Oyster Bay, N. Y, Aug. 15.-Refer
ring to the testimony given by Benja.
min B. Odell before the senate commit,
tee investigating campaign contribu.
tons, Colonel Roosevelt dictated the
following statement:
1 have not a thing to add to what was
letters published at that time. These let
ters speak for themselves. Mr.. Sheldon's
testimony bear them out absolutely. i
never directly or indirectl. asked Mr..
Hartman for a dollar, and he never
spoke to me about giving a dollar to the
national campaign fund. On the contrary,
he asked me to help him get for Odell
and the state campaign fund some large
sums Of none from the national campaign
committee on the ground that my election
was safe anyhow, that 1t was essential to
help Odell carry the state ticket.
Let me repeat that every fact was set
forth in full and In detail by me six years
ago while Mr.. Hartman was alive. This
statement contained my letter, written at
the time to Mr.. Hartman, and neither
Mr.. Hartman nor Mr.. Odell ever attempt
ed to answer this communication of mine
and no human being can so much as at
tempt to refute any statement l therein
made without branding himself as dishon-
est and untruthful. Mr.. Sheldon's state
ment. which he of his own accord volun-
teered to make, corroborated everything
that l said. 1 was glad to have it pub
lished, but tho letters / ave needed no
corroboration.

WILSON PLANS
JERSEY TALKS
In Gloucester Today--Not
Going to Indiana.

Sea Girt, N. j., Aug. 15.-After re-
fusing regretfully the pressing invita-
ton to go to II Annapolis to pnrtici-
pate in the notification ceremonies OF
his running mate, Governor Marshall,
Governor Wilson indicated that for the
next month and a half at least he will
confne his speeches and public appear
ances to New Jersey rallies and to non
partisan gatherings In other states.
The engagements on the diary do not
yet take up so much time. but there
will be no trouble to fill out the dates.
Although invitations are coming in
daily to fill in about every day and
most Of the nights the Democratic
nominee and his managers are agreed
that 1t will not be well for him to I'M
dertake any formal campaign efforts
until after the middle of September.
In the meantime he will accept such
invitations as will not interfere with
his manifold tasks Of being 8 governor
and a nominee at the same time.
This does not mean that he will not
touch upon political subjects In his
talks. The contrary is the case. When
he talked to the farmers ut Gloucester
today be discussed the pending ques-
tons as they affect the farmer. He will
do the same in Williams Grove, and
Of course he will adhere to the subject
when he talks from the veranda Of the
little white house and at Wilson and
Marshall rallies.

Naming Of Newly Born.
Newport, r. l., Aug. 15.-News that
a son has been born to Mrs. John ].
Astor was received here early, having
come over the ticker at a brokerage
office. The news spread quickly, and
when people began to assemble at the
Casino 1t was the general topic of con
versation. If Mrs. Aston could have
but heard the expressions of pleasure
and good will at the event 1t would
have done her good. There was also
something significant, as the child was
born on the day of the Astor cup race,
and by common consent it was taken
for granted that he would be called
after his father.
Mrs. Aston has not been Identified
with Newport to any great extent. She
was here last summer with her par

a visit just after her engagement was
announced, and it was there that the

|HANDCUFF KING
ARRIVES TODAY
At Proctor's Theatre Tonight
Feat at Beach.

A big crowd Of Perth Amboy
people will be at Bayard's Beach
this afternoon to see Leroy, the
'handcuff king" astonish the natives
of this section Of Middlesex county
by escaping from a watery grave in
a most wonderful manner. The
great stunt will be pulled off at 4
o'clock sharp, and will be all over
but the shouting within a few min
utes after that hour. The demon
stration by this wonder worker, Lee
Roy, will be given free to as many
there are indications that there will
be q large number. The committee
at the beach will consist Of Acting
Mayor Ferd. Garretson, 8. r. Far
rington, Chief Of Police Patrick ].
Burke, Morris Miller, of the
Chronicle, and R. s.. Hall, of the
EVENING NEWS.
First of all Leroy is to be hand
cuffed and shackled. Then his arms
and legs are to be secured with forty
yards of heavy galvanized iron chain.
Then when this is all done, he is to
be placed In a mail sack, the mouth
of which is to be tightly sealed, and
then the sack containing the bound
and shackled mar will be thrown in
to the deep water of Raritan bay.
Leroy promises hat he will es-
cape from the sack, and break his
bonds of iron and steel while in the
water and that he will swim to the
shore not only safe and sound but
unscathed by his experience.
The open air demonstration of
this mans prowress this afternoon
will not end his wonderful work In
Perth Amboy. Manager Bullwinkle,
of Proctor's theatre, has arranged to
show the people in this city all of
the marvellous tricks which Leroy
is able to perform.
At the theatre tonight Leroy will
work another of his wonders.
Eugene Mullen, of 100 New Bruins
wick avenue, will go up on the stage
from the audience, and In full view
of the audience will securely bind
the man with cords and ropes. He
will place him in a strong wooden
case, the lid of which they will fast
en- down with screws and nails. AZ
ter all of this Leroy says he will be
able to get out Of the box and es-
cape from his bonds in a remarka-
bly, short space of time. The thing
sounds like an impossible feat, but
Leroy, it is said, Is daily doing seem-
ingly impossible things, and he
promises not to fail in this.
Tomorrow night two local police
men will figure In the Proctor per-
Torrance. Just who they will be Is
not known now. but Mayor Garrett
son and Chief Burke have granted
the request of Manager Bullwinkle
to furnish two officers to place Leroy
in handouts and a straight Jacket.
That they will do their work we'll in
their efforts to Illustrate LeRoy's
plans to escape can not be doubted.
but Leroy gives absolute assurance
that no matter how securely he is
'ironed" he will work his way out
of the handouts and straight Jacket
in less time than II required for the
policemen to fasten them on him.
Then for Saturday night Manager
Brunette and Leroy promise another
treat, the exact nature OF which they
have declined to make known. They
plan to surprise local t~heatregoers
with the brilliant daring and SEEM
ingly impossibility OF accomplish
ment of this nights feat by Leroy.
