CAMPAIGN FUNDS NEEDED
Demand for Republican Litera.
ture Unusually Heavy.

Never before have the demands for
campaign literature from the Republican
State Committee been so heavy. 1t is evil
dent that, while there have been no pyro-
technics In the campaign in this state 80
far, the voters are thinking and are de-
manding facts 20 enable them to make UP
their minds.
Hundreds of thousands of documents
have been sent out SO far and the de-
mand keeps up. One county chairman
alone asked for from 1000 to 1900 each
OF Ave or six different documents. The
state committee needs money in order to
print more documents. and to distribute
them. Many small contributions are
coming In, but there Is a dearth of large
amounts.
An interesting letter was received yes
terday from a veteran Of the Civil War.
former member Of Company A. 62d
Regiment, New York Volunteers:
Enclosed please find 10 cents It is ali l
can give, as L am veteran ana nVins on
my pension Of SIS month, and no work.
l am seventy-two years OF age. Ny nrss
vote was for Lincoln, and l have voted
for the grand old party every time.
An evidence of the way the Roosevelt
strength is dissipating is the action taken
by the Republican Club OF the 18th As
sembly District. This organization, OF
which Peter r. Gatens is the head, was
formed to fight Joseph Z. Nejedly, the
regular leader in the district. 1t has lS5
members and headquarters at No. So3 East
SD street. In August the club passed
resolutions supporting Colonel Roosevelt.
II has now rescinded that action ana
pledged It's loyal support TO President
Taft and the state ticket
I'VE decided that Roosevelt had no
chance OF election" said L. M. Kommell'
secretary of the organization. Wa do
not want to help Wilson by supporting
Roosevelt" This view of the situation is
spreading. and reports are coming In
daily to county and state headquarters OF
Roosevelt sympathizers who have de-
clded to vote for Taft.

Keystone Stenographer Re-
yeals Watch Case Methods.

Philadelphia, Oct 1o.-Evidence tend
ing 10 show how the keystone Watch
Case Company controlled It's trade was
given when the hearings before the spe-
cial examiner in the case brought by the
federal government were resumed this
afternoon.
Miss Lizzie Kanz who was employed
as a stenographer in the Chicago branch
Of the Keystone company from 1903 to
1911, testified that she had been directed
by the Chicago manager Of the company
to send letters to jobbers instructing them
in the prices to be charged to Iobbers, the
prices the jobbers must charge the retail
ers and the prices the latter must charge
the consumers.
According to her testimony, when infor-
nation reached the company that any
jobber or retailer had failed to maintain
the scheduled price the Jobber or retailer
was taken from the company's approved
list and no further goods were delivered
to him.
NJ. D. Hardy, managing director Of a
Boston firm Of watch jobbers, testified
that his company had been refused goods
by the Keystone company when II de-
clined to agree to terms Of a letter sent
by the Keystone company on January o.
1910, instructing jobbers to handle only
Keystone goods.
Mr.. Hardy told Of an interview with
President Zurbrugs, Of the Keystone COM
pany in New York. at which he was
shown a copy of the letter, and an I'm
mediate reply demanded. Az that time.
according to the testimony, the Boston
company's trade consisted Of 75 per cent
keystone goods, and previous testimony
showed that when those goods were re-
fused Il the dividends Of the Boston house
fell from Is per cent In 1909 to per
cent in 1910
That the Keystone company controlled
rs per cent OF the watch case business In
the United States was shown by census
figures produced by A. G. Stewart, CHIEF
statistician, at hearing before the ex-
aminer tonight
Further testimony will be taken here
IN about two weeks Then the defence
will open It's side.

sage. and at once packed her grip, in
forming her sister law, Mrs. Herman
McEachn, of 81 Lovcjoy street, with
whom she has been stopping, that the

all an hallucination and that she would
soon be "on her way" Without wait

to accompany her, Mrs. Hutcheson hur-
ried away to the depot, where she met
the bridegroom and where an affection
ate and dramatic scene took place.
