WASHINGTON. Aug. 14—Of the Roosevflt-Harrlman incident in 1904 anti the < ontribution h\ the railroad magnate of more than 5200.000 to the New York Republican state campaign, still another conflicting version was re corded toda y w hen B. B. < ttlell. former governor of New York, testified before the senate committee investigating campaign expenditures. Odell, who was chairman of the etate committee in 1904 and governor from 1901 to 1905. testified that the contri butions, totaling approximately $250,- 000. were collected by the state com mittee outside of a $500,000 contribution which had been promised by the Re publican national committee. Records were kept of these contributions, but were destroyed at the close of the cam paign. he said. "Was \our attention ever called tn a letter purporting to have been writ ten by E if Harriman to Sidney Web ster in 1906. in which Mr. Harriman is said to have stated that In 1904 Presi dent Roosevelt sent a request asking him to come to Washington’" asked Senator Clapp. "I have seen the letter"" 'Do von know anything about that request outside of the letter?" "I do." "State what you know." Harriman Called on T. R. "Along early in October of 1904 1 was requested by Mr. Harriman to lunch with him. 1 went tn his office and during luncheon he showed me a letter from President Roosevelt asking him to come to Washington. We had some conversation as to what the pres ident desired to s?e Mr. Harriman about, and I said It was my opinion that he wanted to ask about the situa tion in New York and consult about th? financial conditions, "Mr. Harriman said he did not care tn go. but. after talking the matter over, he said he would go. I requested Mr. Harriman to visit Mr. Roosevelt, ami I requested him to bring to the at tention of Ml. Roosevelt the situation in New York regarding the senatorial campaign. I told him rhe organization was in favor of the election of Gov ernor Black to succeed Senator Depew, hut at the same time they felt kindly toward Senator Depew and would like to see him taken care of. I suggested that Mt. Harriman ask Mr. Roosevelt if he could not send Mr. Depew as ambassador to France. Mr. Harriman went to Washington and a few days after I again lunched with him and ascertained what had occurred at the conference with the president. He said I was right. Promised to Appoint Depew. 1 lie president was anxious about the financial conditions in New York and he would like to have Mr. Harriman’s help. Mr. Harriman said the president told him that if necessary he would do as I equested about Depew. Harriman said he was ready to help the national committee. 1 suggested that he wait until the committee had exhausted all other sources. "Subsequently Mr. t’ortelvou came to my office and told me they were unable to.raise the monej <] U e the state com mittee. I told him it was a very e,n barrassing position for me and he asked if I could not help out. I called up Mr. .iairitnan on the telephone, told hint the situation and told him that if he desired to help the national committee the time had come. He told me to send Cortelyou and Bliss to his office. Then Mr. Harriman telephoned me that he had made atrangements and had raised $240,000. Which he had turned ov<y to Bliss. Bliss later gave me a check for $200.0(10 and I gave him a receipt for this.” Odell admitted that representation • tad been made tn Harriman that the finances of the campaign were In a se rious condition whereas the? were not.
