ing either his whereabouts. the con-
dition of his health or his intention
in respect of ncceptjngs9service.
Friends of the Standard OIL mag.
nate gave contradictory reports con-
corning both his Whereabouts and his
afsaith. Some OF them asserted pus4
isivefy that he was at Turrytowri.
while other declared that recent at
tempts by them TO locate him had
failed. 1t Is known thai when hast

probably incurable nature Today

was in no danger from this trouble,
while others asserted that they had
reason to believe that his naIads was
cancer OF the stomach.

Judge Parker Not informal.

NEW YORK, oct 2i.--When seen
by an International News Service re-
porter today. Judge Parker had not
read the reports in the evening pa
pers of Thomas r. Ryan's testimony
before the senate committee at Wash
ington. He was told that Mr.. Ryan
had testified that he had given all told
s45o.aee TO the Democratic national
committee in 1904. $3.50 900 OF ehloh
was contributed toward the close Of
the campaign, although Mr.. RYAN
realized that Judge Parker was ao,'u-
ed TO defeat. The defeated candidate
was also told that Mr.. Ryan had saTd
that he had been opposed to Judge
Parker's nomination. and had eontri-
buted nothing toward that result.
Il had always known that Mr. RYAN
would be opposed to my nomination,
said Judge Parker, so that part Of
his testimony does not surprise me.
But his statement that he gave sAhe.-
000 toward the close of my campaign.
although he realized that l could not
be elected, is astonishing TO me. /
never before heard of IT, I'll read his
testimony carefully. and then I may
have some formal statement 70 make
about il tonight
DoTs His Hat.
Judge Alton t. Parker ISSUED the
following statement tonight.
Il have read the testimony Of Mr.
Ryan. and | am astounded. | was
always under the impression that Mr.,
Ryan and Mr.. Belmont We're lead
ing contributors to the Democratic
campaign, because the press said so,
but that they were colossal contribu-
tors. as now appears, l never knew.
Mi Belmont favored my nomina-
ton and Mr.. Ryan had vigorously OPP
posed it.
1T now appears from Mr.. Ryan's
testimony. that late in the campaign,
when my election was not even hop
ed for by him. he paid a vast sum or
money to meet debts of the nattona:
committee that the hsnef Of the De-
mocratic party might not be impugn.
ed. August Belmont is said to have
joined in that undertaking.
Neither they nor their friends
ever gave to me hint OF this per-
sonal sacrifice--not for the candidate,
but for the party to which they were
attached For eight years they have
suffered reproach, but / for one don
my hat to them.
For the honor of the Democratic
party---not In the hope OF electing 1t
candidate. for its defeat was amply
assured In the closing weeks OF tn
camraign--they made good the oh
legations OF the organization not OF
OF the funds OF corporations, but out
of their own pockets,'
