treasurer of the Republican national
committee, at Republican national
headquarters here. Mr.. Upham said
that this amount had been paid in ac-
tuaf cash, and that there were in addi-
ton about 100000 more in pledges
which had not been collected
Mr.. Upham said he could not mag
inc how Governor Cox obtained the inn
precision that the Republican national
organization was collecting a $15,000,-
900 campaign fund, as Governor Cox
has charged in his speeches, and said
he was very glad that the senate in
vestigating committee was taking the
matter up. ,
would have very much regretted
it if / had not been called by the SEN
ate committee" Mr.. Upham said when
asked if he was to testify at Chicago
next Monday.
chairman Hays's statement that
our budget is only 100000 is cor
rect, said Mr.. Upham. 'tBut since
Senator Harding's nomination only
1914 ,353.S2 has been collected for the
national campaign, as our books win
show. To the best of my knowledge,
no single contribution of more than ST.
600 has been received since the ma
tional convention.
Mr.. Upham said he believed that
Governor Cox, to reach his $15,000,0O0
estimate, must have taken the amount
raised by the Republicans of Ohio and
multiplied it by 4S, the total number
of states.
Regarding Governor Cox's recent as
sertion that 100000 was to be col
leeted by the Republicans in cone
place, presumably Chicago, Mr.. Up
ham explained that this amount was
the quota for Illinois, but that it was
for national, state and county purposes
combined, most of it for the last
named purpose.
Both VIII Fl. Hays, Republican ma
tional chairman, and George White,
Democratic national chairman, received
invitations from the senate committee
yesterday TO testify in Chicago next
Monday, and both replied that they
would be there

w Marsh, treasurer of the Democratic
national committee, since I saw you
Yesterday said Mr.. White to a group
of newspaper reporters. 81 think that

NOT AGAINST IRELAND k
Patrick J. Murray, Ono of the Staunch
 Sons of Old Erin. Secs Merit in League After Listening to Gov. Cox.

One of the most enthusiastic au- ditors at the. democratic meetings. at
 New Haven yesterday. when Governor James M. Cox of Ohio, the party can
 didate for president. spoke twice. was
 Patrick J. Murray of this city. In speaking about the candidate today. Mr. Murray waxed enthusiastic over the governors ability both as an orator and statesman. In discussing the League of Nations bugaboo, Mir. Murray said that Governor Cox had more clearly defined the real merit in the league than has been called to his attention since its inception. MT. Murray feels that the League of Nations as put forth by President Wilson, and expounded by Governor
 Cox, is not the detriment to the Irish
 cause that many of the members of
 the Grand old Paralytic' party
 would have the voters think.
 Another member of the local group
 in attendance at the gathering yes
 terday. said today that there is every
 indication that the fight for the guber-
 material nomination lies between Con- gressman Augustine Lonergan of Hartford, and Mayor David F.. FitZ- Gerald, of New Haven. chairman of the democratic state central commit is the one that will draw forth the tee. From local standpoint, the nomination of Congressman Lonergan is the one that will draw forth the heaviest vote for the party in thls section. The voters in the first con- gressional district are all aware of the wonderful record O. ConSi essma'1 Lonergan during his eirtc III Wash ineton. Even the most rabid and criti- fr1 n iyy1- possible to find a flaw In his record. The work that Mir. Lonercan did for 1 the soldiers and their relatives and [ fa antilles is one that will bring forth considerable strength at the polls in
 November.
