SHAPING The
HOME COMING
JUBILEE PLANS
Plenty Of ParadeS and Music
During Old Home Week
Celebration
COUNCIL TALKS SUBJECT
WITH THE COMMITTEES

Following the weekly meeting Of
City Council last night. the special
committee on the "Home Coming
Week" celebration met In Mayor
Howells Office. and discussed plans
for the affair Much of the time last
night was devoted to discussion Of
the parade of the fraternal, social
and labor organizations which will be
held on Wednesday evening, October
9. It is expected that 10000 men
will participate in this parade.
There has been some hesitancy on
the part of the organizations relative
to the extent to which City Council
would be willing to help them in a
financial way, such as defraying ex-
penses of a band This subject was
taken up at the meeting last night,
and Il was decided to send TO each
oganization a letter outlining just
what the city proposes TO do.
Council has decided 20 divide the
parade of the organizations on Wed
nesday evening into four divisions.
Each division will be headed by a
good band of a sufficient number of
pieces. Each of these bands will be
engaged by the city and will be paid
by Council. Council found it impos-
sible to pay for a band for each indi-
vidual society and by grouping them
In four divisions with a band FOR
each the members thought would give
entire satisfaction.
This arrangement, however, does
not prevent any organization or so
ciety having its own band.
The committee on decorations will
have a grandstand erected, probably
I'm front Of the City Hall, and from
this the reviewing officers will watch
the various parades. The committee
viii also have the City Hall and otner
city buildings decorated. Market
street will be decorated and It is pos
sible that a court of honor will be
erected.
Many responses have been received
from the merchants and manufT ctur-
ers relative to their having wagons
decorated and floats in the industrial
parade on Wednesday afternoon, Oc-
tober Q. One big concern alone has
Informed Council that they viii have
twelve wagons handsomely decorated
i'm the parade. They may also have
float representing some historical
subject. Other concerns have signi-
fed their willingness to have from
one 10 six and eight wagons in the
parade, and all Of them will be pret-
tily decorated. Automobile trucks
will be admitted to this parade as
well as the automobile parade on the
Friday following.
The suggestion has been made that

WASHINGTON, Aug. 23.--John D..
Archbold, political strategist and di-
recting genius of the Standard Oil
Company and reputed author Of the
Archbold letters to various legisla-
tors, today took the stand before the
Clapp committe Of the Senate to bare
the secrets of how Standard Oil funds
helped fill the Golfers of the National
Republican Committee in 1904.
Specifically Archbold appeared at
Senator Clapp's request to tell the
committee which is empowered to
probe the campaign finances of both
parties in 1904 and 1908, exactly how
it was that he gave the Republicans in
1904 contributions aggregating $l25,-
0O0 and to cOrrOborate or repudi-
ate Senator Boies Penrose's state
ments of the circumstances attending
that gift, made on the floor of the
Senate, on Wednesday. 1t was known,
however, that in addition the Senator
ial inquisitors expected to grill the
trust magnate on his other alleged
political activities.
Archbold and Penrose we're among
the early arrivals. Archbold came
in unostentatiously and took a seat,
waiting his call to the stand.
At 9.45 o'clock Archbold was called.
He was sworn with upraised hand,
and gave his name and residence.
Senator Clapp conducted the di-
rect examination.
I'm the year 1904, I was the vice
president of the Standard Oil Com
pany." said Archbold in prefacing his
testimony.

Archbold.
After the payment of the S25. 600.
did you have any conference with any

Clapp.
"I did," said Archbold. with Mr..
Bliss early In October-the first or
second-perhaps two or three con-
ferences. Mr.. Rogers may have been
present.
THE result was that we declined
to make further contributions as re-
quested."
Did you have any conferences with
Mr.. Cortelyou?"
mo, none at all"
Il did not have any conferences
with reference with any contributions,
but only regarding the progress of

oil magnate added.
Il had no confereces regarding

Says Bliss Represented Roosevelt.
Il had no conference with anyone
representing Colonel Roosevelt ex-

I'VE told Mr. Bliss we were on the
Republican side and wanted to help
but we did not want to make a con-
tribution unless it was thoroughly
understood and thoroughly apprec-
lated by Mr.. Roosevelt Mr.. Bliss
smilingly said there need be no ap-

Archbold asserted he might also
have made a small personal contri

the action of the Progressive party's
State Committee in Dover yesterday
in deciding to put in the field State

other political party. Il is known
there was opposition in the State
Committee to the independent ticket
plan, but the old Addicks leaders
down the State along with Senator
Drexler and Robert G. Houston got
through their resolution providing for
a separate State ticket.
u became known today that the
vote on putting an Independent ticket
in the field in the Progressive State
Committee was Z for and 3 against it.
