NV Aasociated Press

NEW YORK, Aug. 26.-lt was
stated at the Republican national
headquarters here today that VIII
Hays, national chairman. will give
some startling figures regarding
Democratic campaign funds in Chi
cago next Monday when he testi-
.aes before the committee inyesh-
eating presidential campaign ex-
penditures.
Although none Of the party
leaders would state the exact ma
ture Of the facts to be presented by
Mr. Hays after answering Gov.
Cox's assertions that millions
have been collected from sinister
and corrupt sources in furtherance
Of a Republican conspiracy TO buy
an underhold on the presidency"
the impression was given that they
owuld deal with sums raised BY
the Democrats 1916. more than
the Republicans had raised In the
same period.

Lake Dumping Gains.
Commenting upon the dumpings
at the lakes. The American Coal
Journal states the following:
Dumpings at Lake Erie ports
increased 1888 tons during the
second week Of operation OF Ser
vice Order No. 10. The total for
the week ended August Z was $780,
7Ol net tons. Of which 7s5,S6s
tons were cargo coal and S6,732
tons vessel fuel. This was the larg.
est tonnage handled in any week
this season, but was still far short
Of the maximum performance in
earlier yeais. Dumpiags in the
corresponding week Of 1915, for
example. were 100000 tons.
The cumulative lake movement
since the opening Of navigation
now stands at f.s42.00O tons, as
against 1S,lsO.00O in 1918 and
14.S75,000 In 1919, according to
the Geological Surveys figures.
The year 1920 Is thus about five
and a half million tons behind
1918 and SIX and >three-quirter
million tons behind 1919.
The figures Of dumpings at ports
given above are perhaps less fair
as a ties. OF the effectiveness Of Or
