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.
