"I conferred with no ono rcpro Rcnting Colonel Roosevelt," sn!d Arohhold, "except Miss., Wo tolil Wins Hint wo .wore on tho republican tddo and wnnted to help, but tltnl we did no l want to tnnko n contribution unless it wns thoroupldy understood nnd thoroughly appreciated by Roose velt, Hliss smiled nnd said: 'You nred not entertnin nny apprehension on Hint Kcorc.'" Not Hnrrlmnn Contributor Archhold also admitted Hint he did not know whether John I). Rockefeller or llonry II. Rogers inado private contributions, milium Q. Rockefel ler, he Said, knew all about the money (hat was paid to I'cnroso and Hlias. Archbold here hroupht the name nf the late Edward I!. Harriniau into the case. "I heard a lot of gossip," lie said, "hIhmiI tho bijr contributions Harri mnn made. Mr. Hnrm'man, however, did not ask me to contribute, as has been reported." At this stngo in his testimony, Senator Pomercne took up tho cros examination of Archbold. Referring again to his conference with Treasurer Bliss of the natioual republican committee, Archbold said: Money Given by Trust "Bliss, Rogers and I discussed the the campaign, and Roosevelt's atti tude toward the business interests. Bliss told us that Roosevelt would be fair and impartial. We thought that Roosevelt would take a conservative, view on the tariff. "Bliss told us that Roosevelt's policies would conserve the best in terests of the country's business. After this interview we conferred with tho directors of the Standard Oil Company, including William G. Rockefeller, Rogers, Tilford, n couple of others nud myself. John D. Rockefeller wns not there. We decided that our interests' as a busi ness organization lay on tho republi can side and determined to contribute $125,000. It was understood that $100,000 was to go to Bliss nnd .f25,000 to Senator Penrose. Roosevelt Wan Informed "At the first conference Mr. Bliss asked for $100,000, but said nothing about a contribution for the Pennsyl vania campaign. Afterwards Sena tor Penrose usked for $23,000, saying that he had a hard fight ahead of him. Tho money that was contri- uuieu to the campaign tunu was Standard Oil money and not tho con tributions of individuals. 'There was some talk amounting only to a sus picionthat the money might not be acceptable. I said I wanted Colonel Roosevelt to know thut the contri bution came from the Standard Oil Company. Mr, Bliss said to me: 'I will most certainly tell Colonel Roose velt.' " Penrose Again Testifies When the committee resumed its Investigation this afternoon Senator Penrose was questioned by Chairman Clapp and other members. Ho de clared that when ho received the $25,000 from Archbold he supposed Colonel Roosevelt approved of the contribution. "Archbold said," continued Pen rose, "that tho Standard Oil direc tors would not contribute unless as sured of secrecy, and that it would bo received by Roosevelt and Cortol you n tho proper spirit." Roose volt's name was specifically used." "There was goneral assuranco from Treasurer Bliss," continued Pen- FRENZIED M MR Ml August I).

When tho army appropriation bill Is next presented to President Taft to sign, it will not contain tho clauso affect ing tho tcnuro of tho office of Major General Leonard Wood, chief of staff, owing to tho action of the houso and senato conferes in striking out that provision. This action was taken bo cause a virtual notice to tho con feres from Prcsldont Taft that ho would again veto tho bill if tho pro vision wcro not eliminated.
