Sheldon, a New York banker, who has been identified with the national committee since 1896, and was its treasurer in 1906. Mr. Sheldor testified today before the senate sub-committee investigating campaign expenditures. He filed with the investigators today detailed records of the receipts and expenditures of 1908, including a list of 16,000 con tributors, whose gifts totaled $1,655,- 518.27. Mr. Sheldon declared that men con nected with Morgan & Co. and Henry C. Frick had told him of these contributions In the 1908 campaign, the records of which he said he understood had been destroyed. He could recall no amounts. "What do you know' of any contri butions by' E. H. Harriman In 1904?" Senator Paynter asked him. Harriman Helped State Fight. "I think that has all been published.” said Mr. Sheldon. "But about a week before the election. Governor Odell, who was then state chairman In New York and very much Interested in the election of Higgins, came to Mr. Bliss, the national committee treasurer, and told him that whereas it seefhed per fectly clear that Mr. Roosevelt would be elected, the state ticket was in doubt and asked Mr. Bliss for some money. Bliss told him that he had no money, but that he would see w'hat could be done. Bliss went to Mr. Harriman and told him about it and Harriman got together some $230,000, which was giv en directly to the state committee and never went Into the fund of the nation al committee. "Was this contribution made the sub ject of correspondence between Harri man and the then president, Mr. Roose velt?" “No sir," replied Sheldon. “As far as I know, Roosevelt knew nothing of the contribution until long after."
