London, Aug. 22,--Kid Mccoy
Norman Selby), the American
boxer, was discharged from custody
by the Magistrate of the extradition
court at Bow street today.
He was arrested July 26 on pro-
yisional extradition warrant charg-
ing him with larceny, alleged to
have been committed at Ostend The
proceedings were taken at the insti-
CATION of the Belgian Legation
McCoy had appeared before the
Magistrate on several previous oc-
caslons on the same charge, aud on
Aug. 2 was released on bail while
awaiting the arrival of the docu-
ments connected with the case from
Belgium.
McCoy's attorney, in addressing
the court said the depositions had
arrived from Belgium, and after
caefully studying them, he consid-
cred there was absolutely no case
against Mccoy.
It was most extraordinary that
Mccoy had been arrested on the un'
sworn statement of an intoxicated
woman who, when she became sober,
denied her own statement, said thc
attorney. The reason Mccoy found
! himself in that position was that he
happened to travel to Cstend and
stay in the hotel whore the theft
was committed.
I The magistrate said he had read
/ all the papers and concladed that
there was not sufficient evidence to
Justify extradition, and he there
| fore dismissed the case.

Associated FFesS Dispatch.
Washington, Aug. 22-John T..
Archbold Of the Standard Oil Co J,
tomorrow will appear before the
Senate investigating committee
sub-com.mittee, Investigating cam
paign contributions.
The announcement that he would
appear followed a day of bitter po
litical recrimination on the floor OF
the Senate, devoted to an effort 70
show that former President Roose-
velt knew that funds contributed by
big corporations We're used to help
elect him in 1904.
The attack on former President
Roosevelt originated in 4 colloquoy
between Senator Reed of Missouri, a
Democrat, and Penrose of Pennsyl-
vania, who presented a resolution
demanding an investigation of the
circumstances set forth in his state
ment to the Senate in which he
charged that 100000 of Standard
Oil money went into the 1904 Roose-
welt campaign fund, with Rooseyelt's
knowledge.
Attack Roosevelt.
Senators Penrose, Reed and Will
liams each attacked Roosevelt and
Senator Poindexter of Washington,
supporter of the new Progressive
party, came to his defense, PoindeX-
ter charged that combination Of
Republican" and Democrats was
at work to defame Col Roosevelt.
The decision to summon Archbold
at once was made by Senator Clapp,
early in the day, before the interro-
cation of Penrose began,
The debate between Senators Reed
and Penrose was marked by the
readiness In which the latter replied
| TO the formers questions.
Penrose in answer to question
from Reed declared that according
to his information" Roosevelt knew
that 100000 OF Standard Oil
money had been received in 1904
before he wrote a letter diraCt ting
than any Standard Oil contribution
be returned.
A new element was injected into
the political imbroglio when Sena-
tor Penrose suggested to Reed;
Perkins Name Mentioned.
"Tbere has come to my notice
quite a, lot of information leading
to the thought that some $4,000, 900
was under-written by George w.
Perkins and his associates to nomi-
nate Mr. Roosevelt for the presi-
dency of the regular Republican
party in the present campaign, for
her own political uses. Evidence
regarding this matter viii be sub
mitted to the proper Senate commit,
tee for consideration.
"The ultimate object of this
enormous fund was the control Of
the Republican party in the interest
of the element represented by Nj.
Perkins. The largest campaign fund
in the history of the United States
for nomination was raised fof

The Star has never been afraid of
the third term DOGGY. 1t hasn't been
able to see why a good man shouldn't
succeed himself twice if majority of
the people desired him to do so. Mr..
Roosevelt has been elected president
only once, so in simple justice, il there
was such a thing as the anti-third
term rule, it couldn't be made to apply
to him-if he hadn't applied it himself.
