ABOUT ALLEGED ExToRTiON
 OF WILSON CAMPAIGN FUND. Statement by Chairman WiIlcox of the Republican National Committee.

New York, Oct. 10.-Regarding the attempt of Vance c. Mccormick, chair man of the democratic national com mittee, to repudiate the scheme, as 1t developed in Texas, for the extortion of huge Wilson campaign fund from postma sters and other federal officeholders, Chairman William R. Wilcox of the republican national com mittee had this to say today:
 '-Mr. Mccormick vents his fury on the head of the unfortunate gentleman from Texas whose letter to the county chairman he oStentatiously repudiates that he maintains complete silence on the numerous evidences of similar activity in other parts of the country. He says that he publishes the Texas letter because he wants the public to understand that neither the president nor he countenances for one instant any such method of raising funds. But several such methods of raising funds have been employed by democratic or ganizations in widely. separated parts Of the country for some time * If Mir. Mccormick is really sincere in lis condemnation of any such method of raising funds, he has plenty of work to do in his varied capacity as chair man putting q stop to the activities of his sUbOrdinates. For the democrat ic bagmen are busy in widely scattered parts of the country and the strong arm method is specially favored by them"

Under Sherman Act of Conspiracy in
 Restraint of Trade.

Boston, Oct 1o.-Five officials of the Aroostook (Maine) Potato Ship pers Association were today found guilty under the Sherman act of sptracy in restraint of trade. Sen- tence was deferred.

Powers of Maple Grove Maine, member of a so-called listing committee; Edward H. Doyle, New York agent; and H. W. Sylvester, Boston agent,

 The defense claimed immunity un- der the Clayton amendment to the Sherman antitrust act, on the ground the organization was an agricultural association and exempt from prosecu- ton.
