CLIFFORD MAKES
ATTACK ON RIVAL
G. O. P. Candidate Puts Alder
man Whitfield, Moose Nom
inee, Into Ananias Club.

At a very well attended and en-
thusiastic Republican meeting in
Weiland's Hall, Summer avenue, last
night, e. Garfield Clifford, the Re
publican candidate for alderman in
the Eighth ward. attacked the We
racity and good faith Of Alderman
Whitfield in the present campaign.
Mr.. Clifford read a letter written
by Mr.. Whitfield to Wallace Ieliif, a
member of the Republican executive
committee of the Eighth ward. rms
letter was written last August to ME-
Zeliff in answer to n which he had
addressed to MI. Whitfield, Ond in
which he asked Mr.. Whitfield II he
would again be a candidate for alder
mar on the Republican ticket. In
his reply Mr.. Whitfield stated that
not only would he not be a candidate,
but that IL in any case he should
decide to run, he didn't care for the
Endorsement of the Republican eX-
eoutive committee or the support of
the Republican party.
Mr.. Clifford went on to state that
Alderman Nhit'eia has iOP
denied lately that he wrote such a
letter, when. as a matter of fact, ae-
coring to Mr.. Clifford. there are two
other letters from Mr.. Whitfield OF
similar import in the hands of the
secretary of the Republican eXecu-
tive committee of the Eighth ward.
one of these letters was written as
late as October s.

TO SPEAK
HERE ON TUESDAY
All Other Democratic Meetings
in Newark Called OFF
That Night.

Governor Woodrow Wilson will
speak at the First Regiment Armory
on Tuesday night.
1t will be the first time since his
nomination. As soon as the Demo-
cratic county committee received
word hat the Democratic presiden-
tial nominee would come to this city
they Immediately set out TO engage
the big drill hall at Sussex avenue
and Jay street, which will accommo-
date almost as great a crowd as any
building in the State. 1t is said to
be the second largest.
With the appearance of Governor
Wilson all other ward meetings have
been called off for that night. It will
be the greatest event of the campaign
and will have IA tendency to keep
many of the independent voters who
were swinging to Colonel Roosevelt
in line.
Congressman Edward NJ. Townsend
and Walter I. Mccoy and Mayor
Jacob Haussling will speak at he
same meeting with other candidates.
1t is believed Governor Wilson will
arrive in the city about 8 o'clock
and remain here all night or else re-
turn to Princeton after the meeting.
Secretary Washington M. Cross of
the county committee will confer
with the national committee today
and further plans for the big meet
ing will be made. 1t is not known
who will preside at the meeting.
1t will be the first speech of the
Governor in his own State since he
became a candidate, aside from his
addresses at Sea Grit.
There will be no parade, but every
effort will be made to pack the big
armory to its full capacity.
The meeting for Thursday night at
symphony Auditorium has been can
ceIed, and instead Congressman
william C. Redield, a Brooklyn man
nf~actarer, who is a recognized au-
thority on tariff, will be the prin-
cipal speaker at a mass-meeting in
Orange.

gagement emanated a year ago from
the Cleveland summer home at TAM

Since that time whether the engage

REJECT FUNDS OF
"FAVOR-SEEKERS
Democratic Contributions Now

NEW YORK, Oct. 26.-Great sur
prise was manifested in Democratic
circles today when 1t was learned
that neither Thomas +. Ryan nor
August Belmont have been APP
preached for a contribution or have
offered to make one.
I'VE were instructed by Governor
Wilson to reject all contributions from
persons with axes to grind and have
obeyed instructions" said Chairman
Henry Morgenthau of the Democrat
lie national finance committee.
mot a cent has been given by a
corporation or the agent of any cor
poration. Our entire fund, a%ggregat-
ing to date $6Ts, 364.7 70. came from the
people direct in both small and large
sums" further declared the chair
man..
This statement a made by
Chairman M~orgenthau. who is
sued, in compliance with the
Federal statutes. his report of ex-
penditures for the Wilson campaign
fund, along with the details of re-
ceipts and expenditures for which
Treasurer Rolla Wells Is responsible.
The total number of contributors is
80. 1903. OF these 81. 246 gave less than
800 each, a total of 1896. ASS. One
thousand and fifty handed in more
than 500 each. James w. Gerard,
Supreme Court justice, being the
largest subscriber with $13, 600, max
ing an aggregate of SAL. sos.
The total contributions to date
$67S, 364-are only II third more than
the sum-$45O, OO0-which Thomas F.
Ryan swore he individually gave to
the Parker campaign fund in 1904.
Expenditures have been S677. $50.
Debts of about 500. 900 will be liqui-
dated with a part of the $500, 900
promised for the closing hour of the
canvass. Governor Wilson is ac-
credited with $500. As a matter of
fact he has not contributed a cent.
When asked what particular class
of citizens had been most generous.
Chairman Morgenthau replied: THE
New York lawyers. OF the 5000, 900
given by New Workers the lawyers
contributed about $50, 900.
Though we still need money. we
have pledges of about $500, 900 more
which will see us nicely through.
Should our total be as we expect,
about 81, 000, 900, it will be small by
$500, 900 than any l recall in a national
campaign. The people themselves
have given OF their means and we
have turned back offers from sources
which we might have to explain or

NEW YORK, Oct. 26.-The Brook

ough were made public. The figures
in the. fourteen playhouses are as
follows: Roosevelt. 1851; Wilson,
1859; Taft, 766. Total ballots marked
for President, 1886.
The greatest establishment was the
poll of the fashionable audience IN
the MontaulS Theatre. Roosevelt car
ried this poll by a substantial piu-
rality, with Wilson second and Tart
a poor third. Yet in 1908, according
Ia the straw votes, a tremendous
majority of the same voters support
ed Taft against Bryan.
This was the trend of the vote in
almost every one of the theatres.
Heavy Taft majorities of four years
ago were turned into pluralities for
either Roosevelt or Wilson, with Tai
third.
Those who participated in the vot-
. ing represented every class of voters
in the borough and every section OF
the borough.

CHARGE IN SPEECH IN

Alton B. Parker, OF New York, who
was Democratic nominee for pres'-
dent In 1904, gave out the following
statement today in regard TO the Per-
Tose- Roosevelt matter.
The story that the Standard Oil
company contributed in the campaign
of 1904 through Archibald, charged
in the speech OF Senator Penrose, -
not new. 1t has been told before by
others Indeed, l repeated the story
Of the 100000 contribution To Treas

Nor is Colonel Roosevsit's self
serving declaration to Cortelyou new.
In that same speech | said in effect
that it was reported that President
Roosevelt told Chairman Cortelyou TO

spending IT..

making him postmaster general and
afterwards promoting him TO De the
secretary of the treasury.
- These facts ought to satisfy any
mind that the letter was not written
to be obeyed. but written for produc-
tlon for public consumption IN case
the contribution should be some time
exposed.
Self serving declaration are not ad-
missible In evidence in courts of jus

ence teaches him nevertheless that he
can make effective use of letters writ

of public opinion. The two letters
written by him to the chairman Of the
