PRICE TWO CENTS, ; t;j2nnrtZ FT" II BRYAN IMSWSvKCBfi wm mm Made Charges Against Treasurer of Demo cratic National Committee in Line With Those of Hearst. Sensational Message Asking for Explanation (United Press Leased Wire.) Detroit, Sept. 22. William Jennings Bryan sprung the biggest sensation of the campaign today when he sent a telegram to Presi dent Roosevelt demanding that the president prove , the charges that Governor Charles . N. Haskell of Oklahoma, treasurer of the Democratic national committee, was involved in any Standard Oi scandals, and that the Standard Oil trust is back of Bryan in the present-campaign for the presidency. This action by Mr. Bryan was the result of a statement given out by President Roosevelt at Sagamore Hill last night, in- which he referred to the allegations of W. K. Hearst against Haskell and literally made similar charges. The message was brief and sharp m its demand for proof ot the allegations. Mr. Bryan's message to Mr. Roosevelt is taken as proof that the stories circulated last night, that Haskell had been made to with-' draw as national Democratic treasurer, were false and circulated for the purpose of hurting Mr. Bryan's cause. ;V Th text of Bryan's telegram was as follows: ' ' "Jb i statement given out by you, you Indorse the 'charge .aeainet Governor C N:- Haskell that he was once In the em-.

The sheriff and a .posse are today scouring the hills of Placer-county in search of. two masked men who last night held up nnd robbed George C. Hepburn and 15 per sons at a .country store at Appiepate. a small station 18 miles north ot Here. The robbery was committed just after the departure or a local train for Sac ramento. Nearly every mnaniiani or the vlllaee had gathered at the small store And postoffice to get mall when the masked robbers -suddenly -appeared from : behind the building and rom manded all of them to hold up their hands. There were several women 'on l children In the crowd and there was little show of -resistance. one man started to say something in protest and he was hit over the head with a Slug. After the robbers had compelled ev ery one In the crowd to put his money and Jewelry Into a handkerchief and had rifled the cash drawer of the store, they marched their prisoners in a line to the mouth of a partially completed railroad tunnel half a mile away and commanded them to stay there under penally of death. The robbers then walked away into the hills. The whole affair seems to have been carefully planned and the men were cool and collected. There was no chance for any one to give an alarm. When the Sacramento train stopped at Auburn a short time after the rob bery two voung men sent their grips to San Francisco by express. They sre thought to have been the robbers. Their description tallies with that given by the victims. The officers think the robbers sent empty grips to Ssn Francisco to throw the pursuers off the track and that they went the other way.

Arch bold, vice-president - and active head of the Standard Oil company of New Jer sey, today gave out ' a statement . in which he denied that the Standard Oil company Is participating in any way in the presidential campaign. He also re fers bitterly to business - men being held, up by alleged lawmakers. Archbold. usually reticent and tin- willing to talk on any-subject -for . the press, was moved to give out toe state ment by the 'pro-Koosevelt sfatement, made public last night, - in which the Standard was clearly referred, to as' en deavoring to der-eat the policies or tne Roosevelt administration. The Standard Oil chief referred to the Jealousv of the little merchants In their attitude toward their larger rivals. He said the little merchant may violate the law along with tho big rival, and though: the law violated probably Is a dead. let ter, attention will be drawn to the ac tion of the big merchant by the press and the public. The result Is, he says, that "business men are held up by al leged lawmakers, with enough sense to draw up an ordinance, which Is duly submitted to their fellow lawmakers.' He luvs that, though the ordinance is unjust, it Is dropped, after some discus, slon, and mattera go along all right for a time, but only until 'another politician tCnltrd Pra Lenid Wlre.l Seattle, Sept. 22.
