Times What Was Expected.

Washington. The sum of S265,000,
collected and spent in the campaign for

his Washington headquarters, was partly
accounted for by Representative William
b. Mckinley of Illinois, the presidents
campaign manager, in testimony before
thc senate investigating committee.
Mr., Mckinley said the Taft Family
comprising Charles F.. Taft, Henry W.
Taft and Horace Taft, brothers OF the
president, gave $150,0oO. The campaign,
he declared, had cost five times what
was anticipated.

as given by Mr.. Mckinley, We're:

ROOSEVELT
SOLICITED FUNDS
HARTMAN ALLEGED TO HAVE
TOLD MORGAN THIS.
MACvEAGH IS AUTHORITY
c. R. Crane Says He Gave 26,6s4.40 to
LaFollette and / $1,000 to Bid Will
son-Other Contributions.

Washington.-The newest, most III
tcresting and important testimony be-
fore the Clapp campaign fund investi-
eating committe was brought out by the
aid of the practical proof that Col.
Roosevelt had not called j.. Pierpont
Morgan from the White House in 1904
and asked for a campaign contribution,
but it was e. II. Hartman who asked
for the contribution after Hartman had
returned to New York from Il dinner
given him by Col. Roosevelt at the
White House.
On this point the testimony is as iol-
lows, the story being told by J. g. Vel
liver on the authority of Wayne Mac
Veagh, who was present in Morgan's
office when Morgan was called to the
telephone:
MY conversation with Mr.. MacVeagh
occurred over two years ago and has
not been in my mind at all until the
incident of Mr.. Russell's speech. There
fore ! make no pretense Of being able
to recount it accurately.
"Mr. MacVeagh said, as I recall, that
I, s-lLar- mast of Octo-
Der, 1904 he was in Mr.. Morgah-s0 pr.
vate office in New York. A secretary
entered the room and asked Mr.. Morgan
i he could step to- the telephone. Mr..
Morgan was disposed to demur. The
secretary explained that it was II call
from Mr.. Hartman, who was insisting
on having conversation directly With Mr..
Morgan.
Mr.. Morgan finally went to tie tcle-
phone, and a few moments returned.
MIR. MacVeagh said that Mr.. Morgan
apparently more or less ~displeased, said:
",What do you suppose that man in
the Whits House wants?'
1t SEEMS that Mr.. Hartman has
gone of down there to Washington at
the PRESIDENTS invitation to dine with
nm, and now he comes back here and
the president wants him to raise NOR,
campaign funds. He telephones oy,r
here tha he wants $50, 900 from me;
That he is going to give $50, 1000 AMI
that ne wants me to give $50, O0O.'
lilo said that Morgan proceeded to
the expression of the opinion that it
was nonsense; that there was nc need
OF raising any more campaign funds;
that everything was all right.
Mr. MacVeagh facetiously observed
that he assumed the payment OF an ad.
ditional $4,000 to the expenses of the
campaign would not harrass Mr.. Mo.
gan financially, and Mr.. Morgan adj.
united that he suspected his solvency
would stand the strain. But he seemed
aggrieved to be compelled to pay any
more money"

MORGAN REFUSED WAR LOAN
Remarkable Strength Shown in Stock
Market.

New York.-In the course of an inves.
t~igation for the reason for the remarka-
bic strength displayed in the stock mar
ket in the declaration of war against
Turkey by the Balkans, it was discov-
cred that the Turkish government had
made an appeal to American bankers
for a ioaTf Sf>TSn,aa~.f--a r
and had been refused.
1t is understood that the appeal was
made directly to Morgan & Co.
The bankers offered to furnish the
money on condition that peace be made
with Italy and that the Balkan uprising
be quoted at once. The inter is still
under negotiation, and several banking
houses in New York are willing to make
the loan if Turkey will agree to do all ir
its power to bring about peace.
