OVERWORKED CANARD Of Harvester Trust and T. R. Now Exploded.

Louis Ludlow special Washington correspondent for the Indianapolis Star says in a dispatch to that paper this morning: Tbe overworked campaign canard about the Harvester Trust being for Col. Roosevelt for President, which has been the pet fabrication of the enemies of the former President, was exploded in a Eneational way today when tbe feet was brought out before the Clapp committee, which is investigating campaign contributions, that Cyrus H. McCormick, th head and president of the Harvester Trust, not rn!y is a supporter of Woodrow Wilror hut allowed his zeal in behalf of the Democratic candidate to lead him to make a contribution of $12,500 to the Wilson pre-convention campaign fund. This revelation created consternation among the Democratic leaders at the national capital, who fear that the publicity given to.the alliance between the Harvesier Trust's president and Governor Wilson'B candidacy will have a disastrous effect on Democratic prospects. Some of the prominent Dsmocratic politicians here were not at all slow to express the fear that it will defeat Governor Wilson, who has posed as an unbossed candidate, without any corporation strings attached to him. Tries to Dodge Query. McCormick's connection with Wilson's candidacy was developed by chance, as Democratic National Chairman McCombs, who was on the witness stand, made every effort to cover it jip. McCombs submitted an alleged list of the subscribers to the fund used in obtaining the presidential nomination for Wilson. In this list it appeared that "Cleveland H. Dodge and Princeton friends" gave ?85,000. This item appeared to be somewhat otrt of the ordinary and it attracted the attention of Senator Oliver of the investigating committee, who demanded to be informed who the "Princeton friends" were. McCombs dodged and equivocated, but the more he tried to escape from this query, the more insistent Senator Oliver became and finally McCombs admitted that, carefully tucked away in the expression" and Princeton friends," was the subscription of $12,600 by McCormick, head of the Harvester Trust. He also disclosed the fact that the large sum of $208,193 was raised to nominate Wilson at Baltimore. Upward of $400,000 was expended in the efforts of Governor Woodrow Wilson, Governor Judson Harmon and Representative Oscar W. Underwood to win the Democratic presidential nomination this year, according to testimony presented to the committee. Ryan Aided Harmon. Of the $10,4G.45, expended in the interest of Governor Harmon, Hugh L. Nichols, Lieutenant Governor of that state, told the committee that $77,000 was contributed by Thomas Fortune Ryan. Mr. Ryan also supplied $35,000 of a fund of $52,000 collected for the

advancement of Representative Underwood's candidacy. Mr. Ryan will be a witness before the committee this week, probably tomorrow.

COAL PRICES AGAIN SOAR SKYWARD The coal prices still continue to (?0r because cf the lack of cars for shipments from the mines. At Indianapclls the prices yesterday were raised 50 cents per ton on an average of all coal. The only price affected here is that of Jackson which was advanced 5 cents per ton. The reason for the high prices is due to the fact that all the spare cars have been sent to the Northwest for the shipment of grain. DODGES STATEMENT Tells Why McCormick Contributed to the Fund. (National News Association) WASHINGTON. Dct. 15. Cleveland H. Dodge, of New York City, who was accredited by William F. Combs, chairman of the Democratic national committee with having collected a fund of ?S5,000 for tho pre-convention campaign of Governor Wilson testified before the investigation committee today. H attributed to the fraternal spirit of the famous class of '79 at Princeton as the cause for so many members of that class rallying to Governor Wilson's support with large sums of money. Explaining the contribution of $12,500 made by Cyrus W. McCormick to the Wilson pre-convention campaign Mr. Dodge said: "We didn't want Mr. Wilson or even Mr. McCombs to know even who furnished the money." Mr. Dodge said that he gave Mr. McCoombs his personal check for the entir amount and continued: "I realized it was perhaps unwise to take McCormick's money in view of his association with the Harvester company but he was such a warm admirer of Governor Wilson that I permitted his contribution to remain."
