Third Term party, according to Hilles.
"That is what we shall call it. It is

iPUM PROMISED
BY UM
DF HARRIMAN
Willing to Send Depew to Paris
to Gam Magnate's Money
for Campaign.
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.
