Secrecy Maintained
About Departure Plans.

Secrecy guarded the plans of the
Roosevelts until the moment Of depar-
ture for the station. At first 1t had
been announced that they would go 10
the union station where their special
car was said to have been waiting.
Later it was announced that the police
and the former presidents confidential
advisers considered making the start
from the Englewood station at Sixty
third street. Later another shift was
made, and 1t was announced that the car
was waiting at the Twelfth street sta
ton, at what is known as the commits
sary station of the Pennsylvania, con
nected by a roundabout spur track with
its yards near Englewood.
Colonel Cecil Lyon was in personal
charge OF these arrangements. He con
suited with Philip Roosevelt and The
odore Roosevelt. Jr.
At 7:22 Colonel Roosevelt left his
room. He was seated in a wheeled
chair and carried down the stairs. He
left the hospital by the Twenty sixth

dressing gown and looked cheerful and
strong
Good morning, boys" he said. as he
was wheeled through the hall where
the newspaper men were waiting.
How're you feeling. colonel?" they
asked

swered
Plain clothes men fell in behind the
colonel as he was helped to the waiting
Limousine Two lines of officers formed
a path through which the short dis
lance from the doorway to the waiting
machine was made.

Gave After Certain
Of Parker s Defeat.

Il concluded that Judge Parker could
not be elected before he was nomi-
mated. Therefore, all l gave was sub
sequently to that conclusion 1t was
given for the good of the Democratic
party"
Put me down as a retired working
man." said George w. Perkins, to the
official stenographer on taking the
stand. at present l am spending about
eighteen hours day to put through an
eight-hou law"
What do you know of the 1904 cam
paign?" asked Chairman Clapp.
Il feel so insignificant where con-
tributions are concerned after listen
ing to Mr.. Ryan's testimony that /
don't know whether | am going to be
interesting" replied MIR. Perkins.
He told the committee that in 1904 he
was member of the firm of J. P. Nor
gan G. Co, and also was connected with
the New York Life Insurance Company
and that he served under Treasurer
Bliss, of the Republican national com
mittee
There has been evidence with refer
ence to meeting in New York in 1904
with certain business men to deter
mine what candidate they would sup
port" said Senator Clapp. What dc
YOU know about that?",
Il have no recollection of any such
meetings. and the first l heard of it was
when Judge Parker made the charge
Witness said ne contributed some
where between $4,000 and $4,000 in
1904, and he believed j. P Morgan con-
tributed $15O.OO0.
When asked about Il contribution
made in 1904 by the New York Life
Mr. Perkins said
Nov, senator, there has been sc
much discussion about that contribu-
ton and have been criticised so much
about it in the shape of indestructibe
lies | would like to file statement"
Perkins statement, which purported
to contain facts in connection with the
New York Life Insurance Company tc
the national committee was in the form,
of questions and answers before the
Armstrong investigating committee OF
1905, at which time John c. Mccall
president of the New York Life, testi-
fed.
The remainder of this portion Of the
Perkins statement was taken up with
his own personal views relative to the
publicity of campaign contributions
concluding the statement that he had
sent Cornelius n. Bliss $74,01919 rather
than allow the contribution to be cred
tied directly to the New York Life, OF
which he was at that time trustee.
Perkins testified that he recalled
nothing specifically of the so-called
Hartman fund, but IF such a fund was
raised l may have made a contribution
to it, or l may not have"
He said that he made contribution
to the state campaigns in Maryland
and West Virginia, but did not recall
the amounts. He offered to the COM
mittee several letters and said that
while all of them did not bear on cam
paign contributions, Il rather gathered
that my motives and activities are quite
as much in question as any contribu-
tons | have made"
