BLISS' SON TESTIFIES Son of Former Treasurer Produce Letters From Roosevelt mad Taft Found la His Father's Flies. "WASHINGTON. Sept 80.-The senate subcommittee renewal of the Investiga tion of presidential campaign contribu tions today marked the beginning- oi hearings that are expected to bring many of the leading financiers, politicians and candidates to the witness stand dur ing' the next two months. COlonel Theodore Roosevelt and J. Plerpont Morgan are scheduled to step , Into the spotlight later this week, the financier appearing Thursday and Colonel Roosevelt on Friday. Senators Clapp, Oliver, Paynter and Pomerene were present when the com mittee went Into session. Mr. Bliss was . the first witness. He said he was an executor of his father's estate and had sole custody of his father's papers. ''Have you found any papers bearing on the campaign funds handled by your father?" asked Chairman Clapp. Mr. Bliss placed In evidence a report from the aduitor who examined his father's accounts when he resigned as treasurer or. me repuoucan commiuee. He said the records did not show any contribution by John D. Archbold or the Standard Oil company. Members of the committee examined the records. No name3 of contributors to the 1904 campaign fund appear in the records. Mr. Bliss was asked to read his father's letter of resignation to Harry 8. New, which also had been placed In evidence. The letter set forth the late Mr. Bliss had held as confidential the names of contributors and the amount of their con tributions in the "last four presidential campaigns in which I have aoted as treasurer." "I have persistently refused to make these reports public," the letter read, "because I regard the relations of campaign- contributions to party' committees as confidential. I believe the right to re fuse to make public these contributions is as sacred as the rfcht of a man to cast a secret ballot ln-fhe election." Fend About Three Millions. The letter added that the republican receipts in 1300 had been "a trifle below 13,000,000;" in 1896, $3,500,000, and in 1892, 11,600,000. The witness said he had discovered three other letters of a "personal and more or less intimate nature." These he handed to Chairman Clapp. One was from President Roosevelt, another from Wil liam H. Taft as secretary of war. The committee members read the letters privately. Senator Clapp had them placed in the 3 . t I 1. 1 1 I1 , . .aa4 Hfoua ana meir i;uiiicuia wcis iiui ui- vulged at the time. Mr. Bliss said he bad no other documents and no recollec tion of any conversations with his father which would throw any light on the subjects under investigation. Later, however, the contents of two of the letters became known. That from Secretary Taft, written May 6, 1904, urged the late Mr. Bliss to take the chair manship, Baying President Roosevelt "was most anxious" for it and adding that as chairman Mr. Bliss would "secure the confidence of these from whom contribu tions may be expected." The letter from President Roosevelt, dated the same, also urged him to take the place. Letter From Roosevelt. While the committee at first seemed confused as to the disposition of the three letters to Mr. Bliss put in evidence the substantial portions of them were finally made public. Two were of no par ticular import, but the third, dated March 26, 1906, written by President Roosevelt from the White House to Mr. Bliss In New York made specific denial that he had ever been Influenced for or against eny persons or interests as a result of contributions to the 1904 campaign. President Roosevelt wrote that he be lieved the 1904 campaign fund had been only half as big as the republican fund In 1896 or the democratic fund in 1892. "This, however, , is aside from the point," he continued, "which Is that the money was spent legitimately In legit imate campaign expenses and that no pretense has been made to the contrary, and that It was contributed freely by men who did not ask and who never have received one particle of considera tion in the shape of legislation or ad ministrative act as a reward for. having so contributed; exactly as no man has been In any way discriminated against for "not having contributed.

Ho said that several big fights were destined for the next congressional ses sion snd that the people must combine against a certain clique In the national house end senate which represents the Interests. He and the officials of the administra tion In which he took part he declared had fought against the few in behalf of all the people In brlrming about acts of legislation favoring conservation, but that the fight will have to be repeated since the Interests are coming 'back at them. "The first big fight we will have," said he, "will be against the proposition of states rights in the matter of forest conservation. Representatives of the In terests have already notified us that they intend to take conservation away from the national government and place It with the Individual states. This will give the Interests a greater chance to hold within the hands of the few the resources which rightfully belong ' to everybody. They can better handle the states in dividually than as a nation. "The second big fight we will have is to be to get in control of streams and water power and to make legislation and appropriations for the prevention of floods. Water power will some day be come one of the greatest resource! the American people have. It already has come Into the control of a few privi leged Interestr, and It will be our fight to return suet resources to all the peo ple." .

LOUIS, Sept. 30Many, If not all of the eighteen republican presidential electors in Missouri recently signed an agreement pledging themselves to vote for Tuft for presldei.t If the eighteen votes of Missouri In the electoral college wjuld elect him, but otherwise to com bino with electors from other Btates on a third candidate, according to 'toduy's developments. The signing of the agreement camo to light by the announcement of John X Lahlv, an elector of St, Louis, that he Is going to repudiate the agreement becaust Governor Hadley In his speech Saturday night failed to indorse President Taft Lahlv said he signed the agreement with the understanding that if all the elect ors signed it, Governor Hadley would come out openly for President Taft and advocate his election. Louis" P. Aloe, another elector, admit ted signing the agreement under the same conditions as Lahlv signed. At the' re publican statu headquarters, where the agreement was signed, It was said today mat it was not known how many electors signed the agreement. The v St Loula electors understood that Governor Had ley was to be the compromise candidate for president In event President Taft could not be elected, but that there was nothing In the agreement to that effect. Says Project Was Dropped. Governor Hadley over the telephone said the project to get electors' signatures to an agreement was started two months ago, and dropped because it was con- idered not feasible. "Lster State Chairman Elvlns heard of the plan and thought It might be put through," said Governor Hadley. "I gave him a copy of the original agree ment, but had nothing to do with getting signatures to it. Elvlns, after getting a few signatures, dropped the project He told me that he did not think the plan would work out. He abandoned it a week ago. "I never gave anybody to understand that If the agreement was signed 1 would support President Taft" Hadley Talks of His Speech. Governor Herbert S. Hadley of Mis souri said today over the telephone from Jefferson City that in his attitude toward President Taft he stood exactly where his speech of Saturday night showed him to stand. Regarding the telegram which Otto F. Stifel, a member ot the advisory commit tee of the republican national commit tee, sent to President Taft, stating that Governor Hadley had Indorsed President Taft in his speech, the governor said: "It is silly to undertake to construe my words In the way Mr. Stifel Is said to have done. There can be no misunder standing of my position, if the public will take my Saturday night's speech as a statement of my position and my pur pose." The governor specified particularly in reference to his speech that the para graphs In which he said that President Taft, if he should protnlse to use his influence for the correction of bosslsm In southern states and tor the enactment of presidential primary laws, would de sorve support and that if he did not try tc bring about these changes he would not deserve support.

INDIANAPOLIS, Sept S0.-Whoeve participated with the MeNamar brothers in the series of dynamite and nitro glycerin explosions which preceded and followed the wrecking of the Los Angeles Times building, Ootober 1, 1810, when twenty-one persons were killed, the government hopes to disclose in ths trial whioh begins Tuesday before Judge A, B.

Most of the other defendants are present or former union officials whom the government charges, were linked to gether In a conspiracy by an extensive correspondence from 1905 to 1811. durln which time more than 100 explosions In states scattered from Massachusetts to California occurred In works under con struction by employers of nonunion labor.

Each of the thirty-two indictments returned last February contains charges against all of the defendants, and the charges are embraced In three fiioups. They are: Transporting dynamite and nitro glycerin In passenger trains from one state to another, as Ortle B.
