MAINE SHAFT RESULT
OF LONG CAMPAIGN BY
HEARST NEWSPAPERS
NEW YORK, June 3.—The fund
with which the National Maine Mon-
• uznent was built was raised by Wil
liam R. Hearst’s newspapers. The
idea of the monument, to be built
through small contributions, nation
’wide in their scope Was Mr: Hearst’s,
arid to carry ft out his personal con
tributions toward the monument fund
Itself will total $21,000. An additional
expense of about $15,000 to cover the
cost Of executive management in the
raiding of the fund and handling of
it during a number of years was also
borne by Mr. Hearst.
The. original sum raised was $104,-
000. Among the prominent contrib
utors were: W. R. Hearst, $1,000;
Cpf. Jacob Ruppert, Jr., $1,000; George
J." Goulci, $500; Oliver H. P. Belmont,
$500-; Richard Croker, $100; General
Howard Carroll, $100; John J. Scan
ned, $100; John H. Gunner, $100; John
R. McLean, $100; Theodore 3. Starr,
$200; Louis Stern, $100; Andrew'
Friedmann, $100; John McQuade,
$100; Washington E. Connor, $100.
Received in Small Sums.
The biggest part of the fund came
in small sums from every part of the
United States. Considerable money
was also raised by giving public en
tertainments.
The fund has always been banked
in the name of The National Maine
Monument Committee, and trust fund
interest has been accumulating until
the original fund has expanded to
$143,000. This amount would have
been sufficient to buitd the monument
as originally planned. When the pres-
•* ent site was decided upon the Muni
cipal Art Commission requested that
the beautiful entrance gates be ad
ded, and this additional burden was
cheerfully assumed.
In addition to this $30,000 there
were a number of other incidental ex
penses that had to be borne, so that
the actual cost of the monument in
cluding the impressive dedication was
about $183,000.
Mr; ’Hearst, who had started the
fund, and used his newspapers to
raise the original, then announced
that he gladly W'Ould give a dollar
for every dollar the Maine Monument
Committee w'ould raise. He also of
fered and gave the use of his news
papers. As a result contributions
have again come from all parts of
the country, the desire being to pre
serve the idea of it being a national
fund.
Cubans Also Contributed.
One of Mr. Hearst’s representa
tives informed the , Cuban Govem-
I, ,,-nt of the shortage and arranged
for thr contribution of $5,000, whiqji
that little republic has Just made to
ward the fund.

‘Peace Envoys’ to Reach Atlanta
Wednesday.
With the return to Atlanta Wed
nesday of members of the Old Guard
battalion, the most memorable event
in the history, of that organization—
itjs second peace /nission--w}ll be
brought to a Close.
Dispatches from Washington, D, C:.
Baltimore, Philadelphia, New York,
-Boston and -other points which were
included in the Old Guard’s tour rang
with the plaudits given them by their
Northern entertainers during the tw r o
weeks of their visit.
Perhaps the most memorable of
their receptions was that accorded the
travelers in Boston at the Memorial
Day celebration in that city. The
gray-coated veterans were prominent
in the ceremonies which were held at
the soLdlers’ and sailors’ monument.
They marched with, the gdward W.
Kingsley Post, G. A. R., and with the
KearSarge naval Veterans. In the aft
ernoon the Gate City Guard.was pres
ent at the annual banquet held at the
American House.
From Boston the Old Guard went to
Philadelphia, where they reviewed
3,000 high school cadets on parade
and were the guests at numerous
other entertainments.
The battalion returned South via
steamship to Savannah. While in that
city they are the guests of the Georgia
Hussars.
