IRspubIiean A. p. Leased wIrel


 NEW YORK, Oct. 27.-Portions of a circular letter. said to have been sent to directors of corporations by an of ficial of the Republican national com mittee. were made public tonight by George White, chairman. NIT. White declared the letter tends to prove Gov ernor Cox's charge that Republicans would sell out to the corporations.
 Mir. Whites statement follows:
 "A circular letter sent to corpora tions by Charles B. Warren, chairman of the national committee, has come to my attention. The contents will con vince all who have any remaining doubt that the Republican national committee is preparing to sell out the United States of America to the cor porations if Senator Harding is elected. This is a grave charge, but it is borne out by the contents of Mir. Warren's letter.
 Under date of Oct. 20. 1920. in ad- dressing directors of corporations, he writes:
 "swnl you, therefore, determine promptly what the value of Republican success means to you and your cor poration interests? Make your finan- cial pledge accordingly and mall the enclosed card with remittance to the 0NGOAb tONoJs
 "The signature of MT. Warren is not only printed in this letter but 1t is signed in ink over the printed name. The letter is written on the stationery of the Republican committee.
 "No more sordid document nor one more corroborative of Governor Cox's charge that certain corporations are trying to buy an underhold in the gov enment has come to light in this cam paign. Here is another phase of Mir Warren's letter bearing out the Demo cratic charge of millions to be em- ployed in an endeavor to elect Senator Harding.
 Remember it is dated Oct. 20. 1920 two days after the Republican nationa committee reported an expenditure O over three millions of dollars. NIT Warren writes:
 "sThrough over-confidence or inertii of Republican business men. substan tial portion of the campaign expense | stin unprovided for
 "The letter to which refer is on i'll in my office and am prepared to sub init it to any one who doubts its au thenticity."

 KILLED IN LAST 5 YEARS
TRepubIIcan A. p. Leased Wlrel


 WASHINGTON, Oct 27.-Public in- vestigation of the conduct of American marines in Haiti was begun today by the special naval court of inquiry with the exaination of Brigadier General George Barnett, former commandant of the marine corps. and Maor Edmund \. Mcclellan. of tho corps historical division. The court will meet again tomorrow, but no further witnesses have yet been summoned.
 General Barnett told the court that his charge of "indiscriminate killing of natives in Haiti which prompted the inquiry had been based on the record of the court martial of two marine corps privates. Walter r. Johnson and John ]. McQuillan, Jr. He corrected a previous announcement that a total of 3,25O natives had been killed in ac- ton or otherwise during the five years of American occupation of the repub- lie. explaining that an error in addi- ton made in the historical section of the corps resulted in this announce ment. He had learned since. he said. that the total was 2.250.
 Major Mcclellan, in whose office the casualty list was compiled, submitted a table showing the recorded number of bandits killed. He said that very few had met death otherwise than in action. Native casualties in 1915. the placed at PIP; those in 1916 at 50; in 1917. two: 1918, 35: in 1919, 1861 and in 1920. 90.
 Says Bandits Were Killed
 The witness explained that the large casualty list last year was due to at tack in force by the bandits on Port Au Prince and to the campaigns con- ducted in the hills.
 General Barnett said he wanted il made clear that his letter of last year to Colonel John II. Russell in which the reference was made to 'indiscrim- mate killing" of natives was based only on the record of the trial Ht added however that the statement oi counsel and testimony in those case: so shocked him that he hal directed further investigation. He reiterated that by "indiscriniinate killing" h. had not meant "promiscuous" killing: 1 but rather executions without iudg. ment."
 Tn marking the letter to Colone Russell personal and confidential. Gen. eral Barnett said he had two reasons The first was that he had already writ ten an official letter to Secretary Dan | iels covering the case. The second. h, did not want it to become ''publi property"
 If I were permittel to make a de tailed and chronological statement O events as they occurred during tn whole term of our occupation of Hal ti.' said the general, T could soor clear this whole thing up.'' No Knowledge of Improper Acts
 Replying to questions General Bar nett said he had no personal know Hedge of any improper acts by tn marines and knew nothing of allege unlawful executios of natives until h read the reports of the two cases h referred to in the letter to Colone | Russell.
 "One other case, that of Captai Hamilton, now lieutenant" he saic left bad taste in my mouth althoug the officer had been acquitted by cour | martial"

 DENVER, Oct. 1.-Two hundred odd Colorado rangers are under arms to- night at Golden, awaiting orders from the governor to move into the northern Coloado coal fields, where what state officials term an illegal strike of miners has been called effective at midnight tonight.
 Governor Shoup in a statement to- day, served notice on miners and oper- ators that no disorders growing out of the strike will be tolerated.
 The first men to answer the stike call, accoding to union officials of District IS, United Mine Workers of America, were miners of the Russell mine in Weld county who left work this afternoon. Pump men were post ed to prevent flooding.
 According to union officials, 2,0o0 men in Jefferson. Weld and Boulder counties will respond to the strike call as a result of a vote taken Mon day night. The men demand work ing agreement and adjustment of wages. Four mines employing about 400 men which have unexpired con tracts with the unions. will be exempt from the strike order.
 Tn his statement today, Governor Shoup declared that the strike will de- prive one-third of the state of coal and added life and property will be protected and law and order will be preserved without fear of political consequences or without favor to any persons or interests involved"
 State officials declared the strike Illegal on the grounds that the state industrial commission already had as sumed jurisdiction in the strike con | troversy under state laws and had sei l a hearing for November 4. The mer | contend that the strike order Is 1ega because notice haNbeen served on thu state commission on September II more than thirty days prior to the strike order.
