Theodore Koose velt told on his cross examination, aliinit his dealings with the "bosses," his personal relations with William Karnes, and his ideas about campaign funds of millions of dollars. He men tioned the famous $500, unn which Thomas Fortune Ityan contributed to the presidential cuuse of Alton B. Parker, and swore he had never seen a list of the persons who helped swell the fund of $3,000,000 used In connec Hon with his own campaign for the presidency. In speaking of the Ryan contribu tion, the witness gave It as his opinion that a leader of big business who con trlbuted to help elect a can didate for president of the I'nlted States was prompted by the same spirit which would cause him to do nate a similar sum to a church, and that such a contributor has no more hope of reward In one case than he has In the other.
