tiers of His Appearing in
Magazine and Offers Some
Explanations.
OHIO MANAGER OF
TAFT is WITNESS
Admits Nearly $4,000 Was
Spent in Pre-convention
Campaign Last Spring in
Buckeye State.
National News Association

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1O.-John D.
Oil company of New Jersey, was re-
called today by the senate committee
investigating campaign contributions
Before Archbold was called L. c.
Leylin, manager of President Taft's
pre-convention campaign in Ohio, tes-
titled that his filed statement showed
between $65,00 and $1,000 as contrib
utions to the Taft fund in that state.
In addition to contributions from
Charles P. Taft he said that money
was received from c. d. Hilles, HUI
bert Taft, and one or two others who
gave small amounts.
Mr.. Leylin denied any knowledge of
any money having been sent into
Ohio.
A. H. Plant, president of the South.
ern railway, declared he knew of no
contributions and had no connection
with the pre- convention campaign OF
Rep. Underwood in 1912.
Mr.. Archbold had been sworn on his
previous appearance and no oath was
administered today.
Mr.. Archbold testified that letters
containing checks for large amounts
sent to Senator Foraker, copies oi
which were published in Hearst's mag
azine, were payments for legal ser
vices in Ohio. Other letters published
in the same magazine Archbold had
no recollection of, but declared he had
no doubt they were written by him.
Among these were the letters tc
Senator Hanna regarding opposition
to certain measures before the Ohio
legislature. Archbold explained tha'
they were written during an era of 81
called strike legislation" and desire
for defeat of malicious legislation wa:
his reason for writing them. Mr.. Arch
bold declared that he could not fine
copies of these letters and several 9th
ers and supposed that they had beer
stolen.

SERvIAN ULTIMATUM.

BELGRADE, Servia, Oct. 1O.-An ul-
timatum was prepared by the Servian
government today for presentation to
Turkey tomorrow giving the Ottoman
government "a hours in which to guar
antee reforms that will pacify Balkan
states.
If the reply is unsatisfactory or if
no reply is made at all war shall prob
ably be declared on Sunday and hos
tilities will begin at once.
Gen. Putnfk who was today appoint
ed chief of staff of the Servian army
will Immediately begin an advance up
on Turkish territory with an army of
about 100000.
Premier Pasch of Servia declares
that an army of 100000 has been mob
ilized, part of which will be used to
defend the southern and southwestern
frontiers.
In preparing an ultimatum which
will probably mean war Servia acted
in the face of renewed protests from
the European powers. The French
minister here, L. Coullard-Descoss,
has handed the Servian cabinet a
memorandum declaring that Austro-
Hungard, France and Russia would re-
gard it as an unwise and unwarranted
act for Servia to go to war without
waiting for Europe to bring further
pressure upon Turkey to compel that
nation to live up to the Berlin conven-
ton governing Balkan conditions
Deep resentment is felt here against
Austria for refusing to allow nearly
10000 Servians to cross the Hungar-
ian border to join the Servian army.

The action taken yesterday by the
county commissioners in appointing
Republican workers as election inspec-
tors was illegal and contrary to the
law. The law provides that county
commissioners at their September
meeting shall appoint the election In
spectors and then at their regular
meeting the week prior to the election
shall fill all vacancies existing in the
list OF inspectors. AS the commission
ers failed TO make any appointments at
their September meeting all the Off
ces of inspectors are vacant, except
in precincts where township trustees
reside, who, by their office, become
the election inspectors in their pre-
cincts
The Wayne County commissioners
action has aroused general indignation
among Progressives, for their illegal
action in attempting to shut out the
Prograssives from any representation
on the election boards, is regarded
most unfair. County Chairman VIII
Robbins said yesterday that he felt
that the action of the commissioners
was so manifestly unfair that hundreds
of voters would vigorously resent IT,
1t is regarded as a desperate move by
the old Wayne County Republican
machine. he said.
by the Progressives was fair and the
commissioners know they should have
honored it." he concluded.
Reverse Opinions.
On September 4th the Commission
ers asked Wilfred Jessup what he
thought about the request that the Pro-
gressives had made. He replied that
the board should grant it. because 9TH
erwise the Progressives would have
no representatives at the polls.
He also said that the law was plain
and that the commissioners would
have a perfect right to grant the re-
quest.
The commissioners the same day
announced that they would grant the
request. Yesterday the request was
refused and the reasons assigned for
this reversal of opinion, as shown
above. are not regarded satisfactory
by the rank and file of the Progress
sive party.

Appended is the list of inspectors
appointed yesterday by the county
commissioners, at the request of the

-"Rube" Marquard, star southpaw of
the Giants, regained his midseason
form in the third game of the worlds
series, played here this afternoon, and
held the hard-hitting Red Sox to one
run He was in complete control of
the situation from start to finish and
the few hits he permitted were kept
we'll scattered. He was also given
great support. O'Brien for Boston
pitched a splendid game until the
eighth inning, when he was taken out
to allow Ball to bat for him. The
Giants scored their first run in the
second when Murray doubled and
counted on Herzog's sacrifice fly
Herzog also played the leading role in
bringing over the Giants second run,
in the fifth inning, when he doubled
and scored on Fletcher's single.
In the ninth Boston made great
rally which netted one run. Lewis
by great sprinting beat out an infield
hit and scored on Gardners double,
but Gardner was out on the next play.
