Washington, Aug. %. - Within one
hour after President Taft had for the

lsh the commerce court, the house re-
passed it over his veto on Wednesday.
The bill was passed over the veto
by vote OF 1913 to "a; 81 Republicans

After the senate had refused to pass
the measure by two-thirds vote the
conferees agreed to provide for the
commerce court until, as Chairman

cratic president"
BY vote of 81 to 81 the senate re-
fused the executive bill which sought

Penrose Admits Receiving Money for
1904 Campajon

1904 Campaign.
Washington, Aug 23.-In careful,
deliberate speech in the senate, Sen
ator Penrose of Pennsylvania replied
to the charges made regarding a GER
tificate of deposit for $4,000 sent tc
him by John D. Archbold of the Stan
dard Oil company in 1904. Senator
Penrose admitted receiving that sum
from Mr.. Archbold, but asserted that
it was part of contribution of 1925,
900 made by Archbold to the Republic
can national campaign fund.
Senator Penrose said $4,000 was
sent him as chairman OF the Pennsyl-
vania state committee and the other
100000 was paid to Cornelius N.
Bliss, treasurer of the Republican ma
tional committee.
"The statement that there is any
connection between the industrial
commission and certain check from
John D. Archbold Is false, malicious
and without justification, said Sena-
tor Penrose.

phatically denied Senator Penrose's
accusation before the senate that
Roosevelt countenanced taking the
800 900 contribution Of the Standard

paign fund. The colonel, producing
volume of his executive documents,
read kilograms and letters that passed
between him and George B. Cortelyou,
chairman of the Republican national
committee In the campaign of 1904,
showing that Roosevelt explicitly for
babe taking Standard Oil money. The
ex-president dictated his statement
after having heard of Penrose's. attack
upon him.
