Chicago and New York, but he
"hoped there were a lot more."
Marie Xo Vlty Quota.
"I never saw a quota for any
city in the United States." said
Mr. Upham. "I assigned only the
jstale quotas, and how then? were
undivided by the state organiza
tions was none of my affair."
"No. but you are responsible for
them la law, fact and conscience
so long as these subdivisions were
made by agents of your committee
and fo long as these agents did
nothing criminal in carrying out
your system." rejoined Senator
Heed.
I ,' Senator Keed then argued that
. there was no war to limit the
amounts that might be collected
in any one state and Mr. Upham
retorted that he would "stop them
before they got to 3,0'0.000.

Mr. Upham agreed with Senator
Pomerene that it was both possi
ble and probable that large sums
would be raised in industrial cen
ters by either party of which the
. national officers of the party
would have no knowledge. The
witness said no one knew what
. amounts would be expended by
county organizations and then re
verting to the list of 51 cities
which Governor-Cox used, he said
be had never heard a statement
that only, four copies of this list
were made. : j

Mr. .Upham turned over a com
plete fi'.e of the treasurer's offi
cial , bulletins to which Governor
' Cox also referred. Senator Reed
pointed out discrepancies between
- some items in the bulletin and the
list of state receipts given the
committee by Mr. Upham. . The
latter opined that the language of
the- bulletin which he said was de
signed to encourage the field
workers, might be taken as a. man-

Under questioning by Chairman

Large Firm Not Honors.
He said there had bwn no con-4
tr:butions from large interests and
when the 1904 situation was re
called by Senator Kenyon he re
membered that Messrs Ryan and
Benjont of New York were sup
posed to have givpn almost $500.-
0o each to the lomocratic cam
paign fund of that year.
"Di you think that, the numer

tributed to this year's fund as lit

ple to whom Governor Co:: re
ferred as intending to employ

asked Senator Kenyon.
Iay Tribute to Fanner.
"I couldn't tell jou v. hat he is
getting at." replied Mr. Upham.
"but I should say these people
are the beat we have in this coun
try." The national treasurer said that
Senator Weeks of Massachusetts,
had .reported more than 7,000 sub
scribers from that state, which
was ten times the number of any
previous campaign. The contribu
tions from the state of Washing
ton were the first ever received
from there by the Republican na
tional committee, he said. Not a
single contribution of more than
$1,000 has come from New York,
but Mr. Upham was not familiar
with the identity of the contribu
tors.
"There mav be a contribution
there from John D. Rockefeller
for all I know," he added.
IMan Some Advertb-inj
Chairman Hays resumed the
stand to furnish Senator Reed
with information as to the com
mittee's budget for advertising in
foreign language newspapers. He
said the party had no appropria
tion for that purpose, but hoied
to use some of its funds ir that
direction, having an item or 1 40.
000 which perhaps might become
available.
Clue To Democratic Plan
Mr. Hays turned over to the
committee a letter from an ad-
vei Using agency which stated that
the Democratic organization was
planning to insert 1000 inches or
advertising in the "best foreign
language papers." He said ad
vertising experts had told- him
there were 241 publications
which might be placed in snch a
category and that it would cost

INmjcrene Score Britten.
Senator Pomerene asked Mr.
Britton if he meant "to dignify
what yon have given this commit
tee as evidence.- Mr. P.iiiWm re
plied that he did and the Ohiv
senator asked:
Don't you regard it as a pretty
serious matter for a member of
congress to make a serious charge
of that kind against the British
government or any other govern
ment without having any proof to
offer to the committee?"
Congressman Britten repl'ed
that he did not make the charge
against the British government
but that U was. merely a sugges
tion baed on his opinion.
DrnwcratM Sent Ont Story.
The committee called Miles II
McMillan. Chicago manager of the
Western Newspaper Union but he
was unable to throw light on the
question of who was financing the
free distribution of the story. Sen
ator Reed brought out that the
probable cost of the venture would
be from $27,000 to $30,000.
George White, chairman of the
Democratic national committee,
was then put on the stand and tes
tified that William cochran. pub
licity director of the Democratic
committee, had proposed to him
that the committee distribute the
story through the newspapers. Mr.
White sa d he favored the pro- j
ject of the cost was not to great
but never approved Mr. ochranV
plan.
Hadn't Considered Cost.
"You don't know'who arranged
for it. who Is paying for it?"
Chairman Kenyon asked.
"Nobody on the committee to
my knowledge has arranged per
sonally, the witness replied.
Senator Edge asked Mr. W hue
if the plan would not violate the
corrupt practices act and Mr.
White replied:
"Well. I would want to take
that up with an attorney, f very
frankly haven't thought of it and
I will take that under considera
tion."
Mr. White, it was announced,
will be summoned to the stand
again tomorrow to give a full ac
count of the Demicratic commit
tee's affairs.
