Peabody's Evidence.

Charles A. Peabody, president of the
Mutual Life Insurance company and
legal adviser Of Mrs. Hartman, tes-
titled that he talked with Mr.. Harri-
man, in November, 1904, about the CAM
paign fund.
"He said he had been to Washington
and that the president wanted him
to raise some money for the campaign.
He said he was giving $4,000 and hoped
to get the rest-I think he said the
whole fund was to be $240,000. While
I was there he talked over the teIe-
phone with another man who was to
contribute.
HWho was thatf" asked Senator
Clapp.
Mr.. Peabody finally said Mr.. Harri-
man talked with Hamilton Nick
Tombley of New York. He added that
he knew of no other contributor to the
fund.

duce any letters written In that connec-

This concluded Mr., Libby's testimony.

mony had been postponed until Tuesday.

Republican National Com
Z mittee First Witness Be-
fore Senate Probers.
SOME LETTERS ARE
PUT IN EVIDENCE
Names of Campaign Contrib
utors Lacking; Details of
Roosevelt's Invitation to
Late E. H. Hartman.

TA7 ASHINGTON, Sept. 3o.-All
NM the correspondence between
wv President Roosevelt and the
late Edward H. Hartman,
covering a period from Mr.. Roosevelt g
succession to the office in 1901 until Mr..
Hartman differences with him in
1906, was placed in evidence today be-
fore the senate COMMITTEES investigat-
ing campaign expenditures.
Out of the scores of letters cover
ing every subject from exhibits of
Indian pictures to the appointment of
federal judges, and territorial govern
ors in Arizona, the senate committee
was able to secure little new light
bearing on the subject of campaign
contributions or the disputed question
of whether President Roosevelt had
specifically asked Mr., Hartman in 1904
10 raise $4,000 for his campaign.
C. c. Tegethoff, now agent for the
Hartman estate and former private
secretary to Mr.. Hartman, and Charles
A. Peabody, president of the Mutual
Life Insurance company and personal
attorney for Mrs. Hartman in the ad-
ministration OF the estate, both testI-
fed that Mr.. Hartman had told them
the raising of the big campaign fund
had been undertaken at MI. Roose'
velt' request, statement which MI"
Hartman made before his death, but
which was denied by Roosevelt.
yxy.Lst,- r ,8&ax
Aside from the file of letters given
the committee, no documentary evil
dence was offered, and out of the many
letters none was produced except Chat
written by Mr.. Hartman to Sidney
Webster, January 2, 1905, that In any
way bore upon the charge that Presl-
dent Roosevelt had asked the rallroao
man to raise funds.
The Webster letter made public by
Mr. Hartman himself during the con-
troversv with President Roosevelt over
fbe fund. intimatei that Mr.. Hartman
had been asked by the president to
raise the funds; and that 1t had been
the understanding among financial men
to whom he appealed, that Senator
Depew was to be given the embassa-
dorship to France.
A letter from Mr. Hartman, June
% 1904, after the Republican conven-
ton that nominated President Roose-
Welt. said, in part:
~ want to assure you that I was
only too glad to have been able to take
part in that convention which recog-
nized what was your due, and l be-
lieved everyone very heartily accorded
it and will as heartily work for it,

He added that he was going to
Europe, but "shall be in close enough
communication to exercise my influence,
should it be necessary before my re-
turn
After his return he again wrote the
president, who replied September 90,
1904:
"At present there is nothing for me
