WASHINGTON. Dec. 18. Ex-Senator
Foraker. of Ohio, testifying before the
Senate committee Investigating cam
paign contributions today, read a
statement setting forth a story of the
manner In which William R. Hearst ob
tained the famous Archbold letters.
The statement was a resume of a
report made to the ex-Senator by Gil
christ Stewart, purporting: to be based
on a description by W. W. Wlnkfield
of how Wlnkfield and Charles Stump
took the Archbold letters from the
Standard Oil office and sold them to
Mr. Hearst.
Both Wlnkfield and Stump were em
ployes in Mr. Archbold's office at the
time the letters disappeared. Wink
field, a negro, is a son of Mr. Arch
bold's butler.
Flrat Attempt to Sell Fa I In.
Mr. Foraker said that while he, did
not vouch for the accuracy of the
report he suggested that Stewart bo
called to tell the story first hand.
The first part of the ex-Senator's
testimony related the story as reported
by Stewart, of the preliminary nego
tiations tor disposal of the letters
taken from the Archbold files, a visit
by Wlnkfield and Stump to a man
named Eldridge and the first parley
as to the price to be paid.
According to the statement. Wlnlc
field and Stump noticed a newspaper
Item about the sale of letters and tak
ing some from the Archbold files tried
to sell them, but failed. Finally, they
wrote a letter to the New York Ameri
?an. making an offer. They insisted on
talking to Mr. Hearst, but were con
tented to meet a "representative" in
the Little Savoy saloon.
Prler Cat la Two.
As a result of that conference they
went the next day to the private edi
torial office of the New York American,
where a man named Eldridge talked
to thorn. They were told that Mr.
Hearst said that they were performing
a great public duty. Thpy talked as
to the price with Eldridge, wanting
$10,000, but getting a promise of only
$5000.
The principal portion of the state
ment giving the details of the alleged
tmncartinn follow: '
"They f tnally; after about one half
hour's Darley. compromised at 15000.
Wlnkfield and Stump then promised
i brine the letters up the next even-
nr. The next day Stump and Wink-
field took the letters out one by one
from the files. They then wrapped up
two copying books in some newspapers
nut th whole in a large box, such as
tailors deliver suits In and came out
with it when Mr. Archbold had gone
tome. They took it immediately to
the "Little Savoy," left it with the pro
prietor and returned to tne oniee
-ijifor. after the office closed they se
cured it and Stump carried the letters
to Mr. Eldridge.
Visit Seemn to Be Kxpeeled.
On his entrance on this occasion
everybody seemed to be expecting him
and he was ushered Into a largo private
office. Mr. Eldridge took them and
was gone about an hour and brought
from an adjoining room 50 $100 bills
vhirh h to Sturan. He asked him
if he could leave the letters there until
h nm nlht and come at 6 o'clock
with his nartner.
Titv next had their money changed
Into smaller denominations and had a
big time that night. The next night
Stump went to see Mr. Eldridge and
canirMl tho letters and files. Mr.
vidrldee and another man informed
him they were of great value and asked
him If ho could get other correspon
inr. Ha Informed them he could.
They then gave him a list of promi
nent Congressmen, benators, judges.
HAnrnnnt and some other men of
prominence, telling him to go as far
back In the files as possible and look
them up. Anything round concern
ing them was to be brought to Mr. El
dridge. photographed and returned and
paid for according to us vaiue.
Price la Agrree Om.
"This list Included the names of over
100 men. They Insisted on getting
$5000 for every batch of letters and
this was agreed on. For the next
batch they were given only $3000 and
the next only $4000. Finally they be

WASHINGTON. Dec. 18. J. Fierpont
Morgan occupied the center of the
stage today before the so-called money
trust Investigation committee of the
House of Representatives.
The noted financier reached Wash
ington last night In response to a sub
pena from the committee, but It was not
until 2:40 this afternoon that the way
was cleared for his testimony to be
gin. Meantime Mr. Morgan sat for
nearly an hour listening to the mass
of statistics which Mr. Untermyer and
the committee were piling up concern
ing the colossal financial operations of
leading New York, Chicago and Bostqn
institutions, through so-called inter
locking directorates.
Om Name Often Repeated.
Mr. Morgan heard his own name and
that of his firm referred to many times
as tables were presented showing the
affiliations of that concern with marty
banks, trust companies, transportation
and Industrial corporations. He ap
peared unmoved throughout it all.
Mr. Morgan's testimony lasted barely
20 minutes and was largely preliminary
to the testimony to be given tomorrow.
Mr. Untermyer conducted the examina
tion of Mr. Morgan, asking a rapid
series of questions to bring out the
general standing of the firm of J. P.
Morgan & Co., Its branch connections
In this country and abroad, and Its
affiliation with many other financial
Institutions. .
Wltnraa tlulrkly Responsive.
The preliminary examination brought
out no clashes. Mr. Morgan responded
promptly to the various queries or
called for data from some of the repre
sentatives of the firm which would
be responsive to the questions pro
pounded. The chief point made In today a ex
amination of Mr. Morgan was that lie
favored allowing interstate corpora
tions to deposit their funds in the
hands of private bankers without re
stricting them to institutions under
Government supervision. He naid this

CHICAGO. Dec. 18. Dr. Anna Shaw,
president of the National American
Woman Suffrage Association, arrived
here today to discuss with members
of the executive, board plans for an

. NEW YORK, Dec. IS. Robert S.
Ijovett, chairman of the executive com
mittee of the Union and Southern Pa
cific railroads, announced this after
noon that he had arranged with Attorney-General
Wickersham to appeal
at once to the United States Supreme
Court for instructions in working out
the dissolution plan of the railroads. .
Wickersham, the announcement con
tinued, has refused to approve any
plan involving the distribution of
Southern Pacific stock owned by the
Union Pacific.
Lovett Cites Precedents.
In support of his contention that
Southern Pacific stock bo distributed
among Union , Pacific shareholders.
Judge Lovett cites the Northern Securi
ties case and the cases of the Standard
Oil and American Tobacco companies.
These, he asserts, are fundamentally
comparable with the Union Pacitic
Southern Pacific dissolution.
The unusual course adopted by the
Harrima officials is taken In the in
terests of all parties. Judge Lovett
says, and in the hope that the decree
of the Supreme Court may be facili
tated. Judge Lovett's statement fol
lows: v
"Immediately after the decision" of
the Supreme Court In the case Involv
ing the relation of the Union Pacific
and Southern ' Pacific, the board of
directors appointed a special committee
composed of R. S. Loyett, D. M. L.

out and submit a plan for promptly and
fully carrying out and conforming to
the decision of the court, and the mat

Inadequate Police Protection Is
Plaint of Residents of Fashion
able Kast Side Suburb.
Irvington ia in a virtual state of
siege, on account of the exploits of in!
pair or more of prowlers, who have
been tarying for a week, with poor suc
cess, to steal something from the resi
dents of that section. Supplies of artil
lery and ammunition havo been laid in
all along the line, but the prowlers
seem to have a sixth sense which leads
them to the least fortified places. In
sufficient police protection is com
plained of, the householders going into
their pockets to hire special police to
supplement the work of the regular
force.
The prowlers are believed by some of
the Irvington people to operate in a
big gray automobile, which Is . seen
about tlio . district ut all hours of t lie
nipht. This, would help iu:eount for
their unbroken' success In avoiding in
quiry by the policemen on the streets.
It is'also thought that they plan their
work carefully in the daytime, as there
have been a large number of Instances
where seedy looking men have gained
entrance to houses on one pretext or
another, as peddlers, telephone Inspec
tors or agents. .
Nearly a dozen houses have been at
tempted in the past two weeks, and in
all but one Instance the prowlers have
been foiled. The annoyance and ten
sion, however, are the worst feature
of the situation.
Few cases have been reported to the
police, on account of the failure of the
thieves to gain anything. At the resi
dence of S. P. Lockwood, 533 Broadway,
the telephone wires were cut and ma
rauders entered, but were frightened
away." The home of Louis Gerllnger,
676 Tillamook street, was attempted,
but the prowlers did not enter.

There were about 65 votes polled at
the election. Of this number about one
third was by women. The election of
Miss Munson is attributed to the fair
sex by some, but at the polls and prior
to the voting day, many of tho suf
frage workers who opposed women as
office-holders announced openly -that,
on that ground alone, they would not
vote for Mis Munson. There were sev
eral women at the polls today who

quietest from outward appearance that

over the dinner tables, at sewing cir
cle parties and In the merchandise
stores as much by women as by men.
