BEST EVIDENCE

Mass, in which 1t was stated that $50,
900 had been raised there at dinner
OF manufacturers addressed by Senator
Lodge. The witness said the official re.
publicaL bulletin stated that $50 pei
cent. OF Boston's quota had been raised
and he said the typewriter list which
reached Gov. Cox set this quota al
$4O00 900.
In Chicago. he said. Charles Pease
was In charge, of a drive to raise 500, 00O
and he introduced clipping from the
Chicago Tribune of Aug, 10. which gave
this figure and said Hays to Lead
Drive" Mr.. Moore also named num-
Der OF team captains" in the Chicago
drive and suggested the committee call
them SO that they might report prog
ress; The committee then recessed for
luncheon.
Probe Coal Charges.
- one OF the charges made by Gov.
Cox which the committee is expected
to Investigate Is that made in Chicago
Sunday, In which the democratic nom
inee asserted that the republicans had
coal dealers.
Besides Moore. 1t is expected several
otner witnesses who were hurriedly
summoned last Thursday, presumably
as result Of information given the
committee by Moore, will testify 10.
day.: Some OF these are said to be re-
publlcans named by Moore as having
knowledge OF amounts and sources OF
republican campaign funds in several
states.
Whether or not the Illinois coal OPP
orators will be called as witnesses could
not be learned. but II was generally
thought that at least some OF them
would testify during the hearings.
Ask Girl Clerks for $4o7
Another interesting phase of the in
vestigation is expected to come UP at
the present session, with perusal OF
the charges made by Congressman

girl employees In the internal revenue
office OF his state were asked to subj
scribe $40 each to the democratic
campaign fund.
