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: '

Auburn. Cal., ' Sept. 22. 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.

that "business men are held up by al
