Garfield Answers Archbold

Cleveland, O., August 23.-All plans for the prosecution of the Standard Oil cons rany had been outlined by James R. Gar. field, as head of the bureau of corpo I tions lefore the fall of 1904 when. Johr t0 Archbold stated today the company m s contribution of S10000o to the ts .osev campaign fund.
 This statement was made toni. Mir Garfield, who has letter ot cember 4 1904, In which MT. RoosevI denied that such gifts had been sought
 A deliberate and unqualified falsehood' was the way Garfield characterized the evidence given by MT. Archbol1 in so far as 1t dealt with the prosecution.
 Instead of the opening of the books of the Standard oil company to the bureau. Archbofd and the late H. II. Rogers of- fered the bureau statements That proved untrue" said Mir, Garfield sThe facts de- yelopod by the bureau were proved in court Instead of acting hastily on my report the President referred il to Att torney General Moody and Special Coun- sel Kellogg, who spent weeks examining the facts before action was taken
 ''Archholds anger against Roosevelt is easily understood and his allian6e with Fenrose is natural. They both will say ard do anything in their efforts to injure Roosevelt
 accusations these men now make were they not made while Mir. Bliss the only man they mention. was alive? It is easy to name dead man, but Bliss was alive duping the prosecution of the Standard Oil cases"
 As to Roosevelt's having inspired the prosecution Garfield said he himself had Initiated it
 '1he campaign had been planned be- fore inc fall of the 1904 and had been gen. efally discussed Garfield said. "Ths field work did not begin until the fol- lowing spring."

Smith Explains

Hartford, Conn, August 23.-Herbert Knox Smith. former commissioner of cor. poratons. in an interview bearing upon the testimony of Mir. Archbold in Wash- ington today said
 ''The first report of the bureau was published in 1906 on the railway rebate system showing the tremendous privi- leges the Standard Oil company enjoyed on the railroads. The direct result of this report was the bringing of the Stand- ard oil company into court on criminal indictments, based upon the rebates and it has been in court ever since. The holding up of reports which revealed the rascaity of the company would have had the effect of postponing action by the courts. Our special reports were made from time to time without regard to any investigations that may have been under wayr

 The principal witness appeared at the hearing room half an hour before the appointed time and conversed with Senator Clapp and Senator Jones.
 Senator Penrose appeared 10 minutes after MT. Archbold arrived Messengers were hurried out to get Senators Oli- yer and Pomerene. who were to sit as members of the committee.
 The committee finally assembled. Mir Archbold was sworn and Senator Clapp asked him what contribution the Stan dard oil company had made to the cam paign of 1904. eN
 We made two contributions to the republican campaign in 1904, one to Cornelius N Bliss of s10o.000, and the other to Senator Penrose of s25.000," MT Archbold replied.
 Do you know when the contribution of S100,000 to the republican campaign fund was made?" asked Senator Clapp.
 q have not the date in mind." Mir. Arohbold said nor have I had time to thoroughly search with reference to 1t. My best recollection is that 1t was some time in September. 1904 I thirk about the middle of September"

 My recollection is that it was given to Mir Bliss in currency" Mir. Arch bold replied.
 Who was present?'
 ITO the best of my recollection was alone in the office Mir. Archbold said.

 Tells of Visit to President
 Mir Archbold told of visiting President Roosevelt at the White House some time later in company with the late H. Fl. Rogers. The campaign was only casual ly mentioned" he said The President said there had been some criticism of campaign contributions. but that that could rot be avoided"
 Senator Penrose, who followed the testi- mony carefully, interrupted to ask, 'can you say whether this s100O00 contribution was ever returned?'
 No Mir Archbold replied. "No sug- gestion of it.
 Mr. Penrose requested the committee to ask Mir Archbold to search for docu- Inentary evidence bearing on tine same particularly for the receipt which he had said he had received from MT. Bliss for the S100,000 contribution. He also asked thao Archbold request his associates at the board meetings which considered the contribution question in 1904 to hold them selfes at the disposal of the commit tee
 William Rockefeller, who is in i'll health is about the only member of the board besides myself who was present. MT Archbold replied. Three members of he board, Mir. Rogers, Mr.. yilford and MI. Barstow were close friends in 1904
 The Standard oil ragnate then said; All were worried to death. MT Archbold agreed to make the search for the papers and to produce them before the committee if available upon his return from Europe in three weeks. He leaves United States tomorrow. Senator Ciapp produced magazine article containing d series of lett}rs purporting to have been written Archbold to Senator Penrose. Mr. Arch bold declared that the letter which men toned $25, GOO sent to Penrose seemed to be forgery The signature is very unlike my own he said. Mr Archbold admitted that he might have written sev, erai of the letters, but that he had no lations with Senator Penrose," he said. "f might easily have written them. I always did what could for the republi- can party because I believe in it."

 Mir Archbold said on the latter occa- sion MT. Bliss mentioned s150.oV0 as q further sum.
