tional consequence and magnitude
Not Back of 1904.

Contending that his resolution did
not go back of 1904, Mr.. Culberson said
this was due to the necessity of fixing
a limit, and was not because of the
fact that money had not been corrupt
ly used prioreto that time. In this
connection he said:J, " -,
Men high in party councils, one of
them afterwards attaining the vice
presidency and then the presidency,
laughed and rejoiced in 1880 around

bered how James B. Foster, president
Of the republican league in 1888,
would have fried The fat out of spec
ial and protected interests to force
campaign contributions. Honest and
patriotic men will never cease to re-
call the shame and modification that
with the two dollar notes, Dudley
f1oaters were organized into blocks Of

year. Nor have foreign ambassador

In response TO questions from Sena-
tor Gallinger. Mr.: Culberson said that
the figures regarding campaign contri.
buttons had been taken entirely from
newspaper reports. He added his con-
vinction that they were fairly well
authenticated, but expressed the opin.
ion that they should be officially in

SENATOR CULBERSON WOULD IN
VESTIGATE CAMPAIGN ExPEN-
DiTUREs OF 1904 AND 1908.
SEES CORRUPTION
Texan Implies That American Ambas.
Scholarships Were as Good as Sold
for Contributions to the Presi.
- dental Campaigns.

:. Washington, D. c., Jan. 24.-De.
manding an investigation into cam
paign expenditures in 1904 and 1908,
Senator Culberson of Texas, in the
senate made sweeping charges of cor
truption against the republican COM
mittees for those and other years. In
directly he charged that former Am
erican ambassadorships were bestow-
ed as a reward for campaign contr:-
buttons, and inferentially he charged
that former President Roosevelt had
condoned the use Of money In politics.
Mr.. Culberson's address was made
in anticipation of an unfavorable re-
port by the committee on contingent
expenses on his resolution providing
for an investigation. He said that the
limitations of the proposed inquiry to
1904 should not be construed as q
confession that there had not been
improper practices before that period
C.. p. Taft's Contribution.
Referring especially to the campaign
of 1908, Mr.. Culberson said that the
contributions to the democratic find
had been made by $4,000 persons, with
$4,000 as the largest, while those CT
the republican fund were made by
1880 persons, with Charles P. Taft,
brother of the republican presidential
candidate at their head, with dona-
ton of $4,000. Among the contribu.
tors. mentioned were Ambassadors
Reid and Kerens and Minister LarZ
Anderson. ~. ..r-'...., 1. -
In his speech Mr.. Culberson referred
to the fact that George B. Cortelyou
in the 1904 campaign had held the
position of chairman of the repuEli
can national committee while he was
secretary of commerce and labor, and
minated that Mr.. Cortelyou had
taken advantage of the secrets Of cor
porations, whose affairs might be IN
vestigated under the federal law, to
procure money for the campaign.
ct has been estimated" he said,
that the enormous and unconscious
able sum Of $11 100000 was raised AMI
probably expended that year by. tho
committee, of which he was chairman.
The very size and audacity of this
fund, II approximately correct, smactzs
of extortion, prof1igacy and corrup-
ton. Who contributed and where did
it come from?"
Mr.. Culberson declared there should
be an inquiry as to these questions.
Charges Against Hartman.
He went into some detail regarding
the newspaper charges that the late r.
H. Hartman had raised the fund Of
$26U,O0O to which he himself had con.
tributed $4,000 in support of the re-
publican ticket in 1904. he declared
that within the last few weeks an eff
fort had been made to clear up this
charge, and added this attempt to un.
load upon the dead the oblequy of this
