PULLED IN THE WRONG MAN
nUffnUed Heroism Gets Its Reward
In Plain, lrn varnished
Slant;. i
The last regular football team at Co
lumbia university had aa captain one
Tom Thorpe. Thorpe Is high, wids and
Impetuous. -The other day he was stand
ing on ths sands at Long Beach, When he
heard faint cries beyond the outer line of
rollers. Thorpe could Just . see a man
out there. Apparently he needed he!p,
"Come," said Mr. Thorp to tho near
est lifegusrd, and they went They
amashed through the breakers and did
a fancy crawl stroke to the side of ths
endangsred man.
"Put your hand on my shoulder," said
Thorpe.
"Bawgle, woggle ooog," said ths man,
or something Ilk that.
Thorp got him by one arm and the life
guard got blm by the other. Now and
then they caught him by the hair or an
eyebrow or something whn their holds
slipped. But they got him safe to the
sands. There the rescued man proved to
be a big. 1 husky 'individual, who had
evidently been a man of great strength
before his figure slipped.
Whatdj want to do that forf asked
the rescued man, angrily. Then he turned
and, though weak and Shaky, dashed
back Into the sea. '
"He's a nut," said Mr. Thorpe ta the
lifeguard. And so they went for htm
again and dragged him to land, not quite
sv' gently this time. Thorpe had to
thump him In the wind to still his pro
tests, and when the rescued man got his
breath back he tried to hit his heroic
rescuer with a rock.
"What's the matter with you, any
how T" Thorp asked, Indignantly.
"Nothing, you mutt," was the surprls.
Ing reply of the rescued man. "I'm all
right. The guy who Is in trouble is still
out thsr."
Bur enough. Thorps and the life
guard saw, beyond the outer line of
breakers, a man making his slow way to
shore. He wss weak snd frightened, but
he was getting in all right. Thorpe
apologised to the man ha had pulled
out of the nice, cool wet and went away.

board. It was submitted later and the
board decided to contribute."
"Was the J38.0OO contributed to Senator
Penrose In the form of a check?"
"I cannot say. My letter books show
no record of any audi Ittter as has been
published. The signature of that letter
Is very unlike mine."
Mr. Arohhoid said th payment to Sen
ator Penrose was probably In currency.
"You were the man in the Standard Oil
company who had charge of these polit
ical matters?" suggested Senator Clapp.
"Only In Pennsylvania and Ohio, where
I had known the relations of our busi
ness." Subsequently to these contributions Mr.
Archbold said he talked with Mr. Bliss,
not later than October 10,' about further
contributions. He thought Mr. Rogers
might havs been at one of them. He re
membered that no one else waa present
- What -was the result of these con
ferences?" asked Senator Clapp.
"W decided not to make any further
contribution."
Mr. Archbold said that in the 1KM cam
paign he had not been connected with
the United State Steel corporation, the
American Tobacco company, the Amer
ican Sugar Refining company or any rail
road combination, that he had not dis
cussed with any representative of the cor
poration named the question of campaign
contributions.
"Did you have any conferences with
snyone except Mr. Bliss, whom you knew
and . understood to represent Colonel
Roosevelt?" ssksd Senator Clapp.
Promised to Tell Rooaavelt.
"Nj. I talked very frankly with Mr.
Bliss. I told him ws wanted to make this
contribution, but not without the knowl
edge of the powers that he. We wanted
It understood and appreciated by Colonel
Roosevelt. Ar. Bliss smilingly assured
me that that would be the case."
Asked by Senator Clapp if be made any
personal contributions the witness replied
that if he had It was a small amount and
he had no recollection of it. He said ha
had no knowledge of either John D, Rock
efeiler's or William Rockefeller's making
individual contributions to the campaign.
"Do you have any - knowledge or did
you hear such reports as you believed of
Individuals contributing to the republican
campaign fund in 1904?" persisted Sen
ator Clapp.
I have no absolute personal knowl
edge," said Mr. Archbold, '"such as would
justify ms In testifying. Of course I was
awar of th talk about th Harriman
contribution, but I had no personal knowl
edge of it."
Mr. Archbold could not remember the
date at which he first heard cf it.
Were you solicited by Mr. Harriman?"'
I do not recall that I was, hut I havs
seen my name mentioned as being among
the contributors. If money was given by
Mr. Rogers or my other buslnesg associ
ates it wss without my knowledge."
Th witness said he had understood the
Harriman contribution- was $240,000 or
txo.ooo.
That ended Senator Clapp's examination
and the witness was turned over to Sen
ator Pomerene.
The Ohio senator began at or.es an ef
fort to learn more details of the 1125,000
contribution of 1904. Mr. Archbold said
that he. had talked with Mr. Bliss about
It a weVk, prior to when he gav th
money.
Who was present at that interview?"
asked Senator Pomerene.
Mr. Archbold' recollection was that
Mr. Rogers, Mr. Bliss and himself wero
there.
What was said about Mr. Roosevelt?"
asked Senator Pomerene.
Bspected RooaeTelt to Be Fair,
'Mr. Bliss told us of his attitude to
ward business Interests. Mr. Bliss said
he thousht Mr. Roosevelt would be a
fair and conservative man when It came
to 'th test, and urged that th policies
of the republican party were the safest
for th business world."
It was because of his conservative
views and your belief of th attitude of
th republican party toward the business
world thst Induced you to contribute?"
"The party question was first," replied
Mr. Archbold. "Mr. Bliss thought Mr.
Roosevelt would fairly carry out party
politics."
"We decided that our Interests lay on
the republican side" said Mr. Archbold,
"and It wss decided that we should make
this contribution.
"Nothing was decided about how It
was to be distributed. Later, however,"
Mr. Archbold said, "it waa decided after
a conference with Senator Penrose that
the Standard Oil men should make th
additional ,128,000 contribution foe th
campaign of Pennsylvania."
"Was this Standard Oil money or funds
of th officials personally?" asked Sen
ator Pomerene. , .
"It was company money" said Mr.
Archbold.
Senator Pomerene wanted to know th
details of th conversation between Mr.
Archbold and Mr. Bliss with reference
to Colonel Roosevelt's knowledge of th
contributions.
"I said" answered Mr. Archbold, "Mr.
Bliss, we are Inclined to make this con
tribution to you, hut we want it to be
come known to the powers thst be to
th president"
. "You named the president?" broke in
Senator Pomerene? -
"I named President Roosevelt, yes." said
Mr. Archbold, "I said to Mr. Bliss that
we did not want to make the contri
bution unless It would be. gratefully re
ceived." Depended I son Bllaa' Word.
"Did you have any misgivings as to
this, st the time?"
"Thet hsd been so.a talk about ob
jections to contributions from certain
sources," said Mr. Archbold.
"Had you any knowledge that this con
tribution hsd been made known to Presi
dent Roosevelt?"
"Only tbe assurance of Mr. BUss
through my conference with him."
"Just what did he any? urged Senator
Pomerene.
"He said: Ton need have no misgiv
ings in that matter, I will represent you
and I will so that It I properly known.' "
Senator Pomeren wanted to know why
the contribution hsd been' msde in cur
rency. Mr. Archbold' smiled as he replied: "I
don't suppose there waa any desire on
the part of either of us for publicity."
Senator Pomerene then took up the
islt of Mr. Bliss to "IS Broadway" (the
Standard's . New York office), wku
further contributions, according to Mr.
Archbold, were asked from the company.
"At a later time Mr. Bliss came to my
office," said Mr. Archbold. "He said:
'I have to come to you again on tb?
money question.' He pointed out the sit
uation In the campaign and the need for
further funds. I said I thought we had
done pretty liberally. Finally, I told him
that I could not decide the matter, but
that I would lay It before the board."
"Was there anything in that conversa
tion to indicate that Colonel Roosevelt
knew of your contribution?" asked the
senator.
"He gave me to understand that our
contribution had been accepted and that
further contributions would be accepta
ble to Colonel Roosevelt."
Second Contribution Refnaed.
Mr. Archbold said thst on the latter oc
casion Mr. Bliss mentioned 1100,000 as a
further amount. Mr. Archbold told the
board that he had Impressed upon Mr.
Bliss the desire of the Standard Oil of
ficials that the contributions should not
bo received unless they were acceptable
to Mr. Roosevelt The board decided to
"stand upon what it had done," and
make no further contributions.
"Did you regard Mr. Bliss as a man of
veracity and Integrity, and when he
said he had told Colonel Roosevelt of
this matter had you any reason to doubt
him?" asked Senator Penrose.
"None in the world," answered Mr.
Archbold.
"When you told Mr. BUss that the
board would do no more, what did he
say?"
"He said that It was a mistake," an
swered Archbold. "He said: 'I speak to
you personally, I think you had better
make this contribution. If you don't,
somebody els will and I think you will
be making a mistake.' He put it on per
sonal grounds, and mentioned his friend
ship for me, toward the end."
"Did Mr. Bliss ever tell you that Colonel
Roosevelt was grateful to you for not
making this further contribution?" asked
Senator Pomerene.
"No," returned Mr. Archbold.
The witness said he never had heard
of any proposition to return any cam
paign funds until within the last two or
three days. Senator Pemerene asked if
Mr. Archbold ever had talked to Mr. Bliss
later about that. ; ,
"I went to Mr. Bliss after President
Roosevelt and some of his bureau men
began some unjust attacks upon us," said
Mr. Archbold. "Mr. Bliss threw up his
hands and said that he saw the attacks
were unjust, and said that he sympathised
with us, but that he could do nothing."
Mr. Archbold said the attacks he re
ferred to were made upon the Standard
Oil company by James Garfield and Her
bert Knox Smith. Both had been com
missioners of corporations.
"President Roosevelt unfailingly ap
proved these attacks, without investi
gation and without the slightest knowl
edge of the facts," he added.
Sajr Companr Waa Persecuted.
The witness declared there waa "mors
than a coincidence" in th appearance
of adverse governmental reports, "every
time we were concerned in litigation in
the courts or every time legislation ap
peared her In Washington in which we
were interested."
'These reports of Garfield and Smith
were the work of mere puppets, who
Jumped when Roosevelt pulled the
strings," declared Mr. Archbold.
Senator Pomerene asked Mr. Archbold
if he thought the refusal of ths Standard
Oil company to make a second contri
bution had anything to do with the so
called unlust investigations.
"We," Mr. Archbold began, and then
stopped to" bit his Hp,' "t don't know."
"Did ybu ever call the attention of Mr.
Bliss to what he had ' told 'you " before
election In regard to Mr, Roosevelt's at
titude?" asked Mr, Pomerene.'
"I presume I had some talk with' Mr.
Bliss about Mr. Roosevelt," replied
Archbold, "but Mr. Bliss was not the.
kind of man to say 'I told you so.' Mr.
Bliss said that it was with humiliation
that he must say that he had no influ
ence with Mr. Roosevelt. .
Senator Pomerene insisted on knowing
what passed between Mr. Archbold and
Mr. Bliss at the conversation when the
Roosevelt Investigations were discussed, r
"I suppose Mr. Bliss probably expressed
his opinion that it would not havs been
thus If we had done' as he had wished
and I have no doubt watever on that
question myself," answered Mr. Arch
bold. "Do you know whether Mr. Bliss re
ported to Mr. Roosevelt that you had
declined to make a further contribution."
asked Senator Pomerene.
"I assume, of course, that (t was so
reported. I do not know in what shape
the report was made, but it undoubtedly
was made," said Archbold.
More Tcatlnaony by Penroae.
Senator Penrose was a witness this
afternoon. He introduced into the
record the statement regarding th
135,000 contribution to the Pennsylvania
campaign fund of 1904 by John D. Arch
bold and the contribution of $100,000 to
the national campaign fund, which ha
made Wednesday In the senate. He
said he7 had practically nothing' to add
to that, but would answer any questions.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 21 - Senator
Penrose said that he . had been
given to understand at the time that
Colonel Roosevelt knew of th contribu
tion of $100,000 to the national, campaign
fund by the Standard Oil company and of
the demand for further contributions.
"I also knew of the urgency of the re
quest of Mr. Bliss to Mr. Archbold for
th additional $150,000," said Penrose, "and
his saying that th refusal to give It prob
ably would result in other measures, th
theory being that It threw the 'powers
that he," as Mr. Archbold calls them Into
other financial hands and that the Stand
ard Oil company would be the 'goat,' as,
the popular saying is."
Senstor Pomerene took up th examina
tion of Senator Penrose and inquired as

Mr. Archbold told me." said Mr. Pen
rose, "that his board of directors would
decline to aid in the national campaign
If thr was any secrecy about the mat-ter-if
their activity was not known to
President Roosevelt and Mr. Cortelyou,"
"At these interviews was anything said
about Mr. Roosevelt's views 09 the
tariff."
"It was generally understood that he
stood for a protective tariff as outlined i
the republican platform since 1896,"
answered Penrose.
"Was anything said about his attitude
toward so-called 'big business?' " asked
Pomerene.
"There was general assurance on the
part of Mr. Bliss that the powers of the
president's office would not be used In
a harsh way for demagogic effect"
Bllaa Told Archbold.
Senator Penrose said that In an inter
view following the first Standard Oil con
tribution, at which he was present, Mr.
BUss told the Standard Oil officials that
Mr. Roosevelt and Mr. Cortelyou "had
been advised of the first contribution and
were extremely solicitous about their
eom plying with his request for a second
contribution.
Senator Penrose declared he told Mr.
Archbold that he was making a mistake
in not making th second contribution,
and that Mr. Archbold agreed with him.
The senstor explained that he believed If
Mr. Bliss, who wa In close touch with
Mr. Cortelyou "and Mr. Roosevelt, said
the national committee needed money,
that it really was in need.
Senator Penrose said he never had dis
cussed Standard Oil contributions with
Mr rvirtalvmi. hut ha believed the sub
ject of contributions had come up cAusally
In conversations he had bad with Pres
ident Roosevelt, both before and after the
election of 1S04. ,
"While no direct reference was made
to the contributions In 1904, I believed
that the president was cognizant of the
habit of the Standard Oil company to
contribute to every campaign since 1894,"
said Penrose.
He was positive that Mr. Roosevelt
never had suggested to him that the
Standard Oil money be returned. He
again referred to the letter which Presi
dent Roosevelt wrote him, thanking him
for his "extraorxanarjr efforts." Senator
Pomerene obtained a promise that the
letter would be inserted In the record.
Senator Penrose said he had been one
of th eoriginal Rsvelt supporters and
hsd called the state convention In Penn
sylvania, which was the first state con
vention to declare for President Roose
velt' renomination.
"We endorsed Roosevelt," said Penrose,
"and worried Senator Hanna In Ohio,
wlm waa opposed to Roosevelt, to sur
render jenaior r wnivrr kuu a.ujw iqq j
Ohio convention to endorse Roosevelt
"1 may say that I probably was as
earnest a supporter of Colonel Roosevelt
all through his seven years' term as any
except, perhaps. Senators Piatt, Quay and
Foraker."
Senator Penrose's testimony was brief
and corroborative of- Mr. Archbold' s at
the morrring session. At Its conclusion
the committee adjourned and it was an
nounced that George W. Perkins of New
York would appear next Tuesday.
Chairman Clapp was in commutation
with New York City over the long dis
tance telephone today and It was said he
had been discussing with some one there
the probability of Colonel Roosevelt's ap
pearing. The nature, of his conversation
could not be learned.
CONTRADICTION BY COLOXEL,
Sara Penroae Telia Deliberate nnd

NEW YORK, Aug. 23.-Colonel Roose
velt declared that "Senator- Penrose's
statement that George W. Perkins under
wrote my primary expenses for $3,000,000
or any sum even remotely resembling it
Is a deliberate and wilful falsehood, which
he knows to be such when he makes it.
"Mr. Penrose," he added, "would do
well not to attribute to others the In
finite baseness which actuates himself."
Colonel Roosevelt added: "Until Sen
ator Penrose spoke the other day I had
never heard of Mr. Archbold's name In
