SON ON WITNESS STAND Has Little Information to Give Regard Infl Contributions to Republican Campaign Fund— Letter Written by Roosevelt in 1906 Introduced. Washington, Oct. 1.—That hts fa ther regarded the names of contribut ors as confidential and had destroyed all records of gifts to the Republican party during his terms as treasurer of campaign funds, was the substance of testimony given by Cornelius N. Bliss, Jr., before the senatorial committee Investigating campaign funds, which resumed its sessions, with -Senator Moses E. Clapp of Minnesota presid ing. William A. Libby of New York, for eign representative of the Standard Oil company, was the only other wit Bess before the opening session of the committee's hearing. He testified that he was the tariff adviser of the oil company and he believed that he had taken up tariff matters in their bear ing on the fortunes of the Standard company with President Taft and of ficials of the state department, al though he was not quite sure on this point without refreshing his memory by consulting his letter file. Three letters written to his father were introduced by Mr. Bliss, one of them from President Roosevelt dated March 26,1906. In this Colonel Roose velt made specific denial that he ever had been influenced for or against any persons or interests as a result of con tributions to the 1904 campaign fund. Donors Given No Preference. "It is not only true that there has coma to me no suggestion that the giv ing of contributions entitled any giver to any consideration beyond his fel lows," wrote President Roosevelt in the letter, "but it is furthermore true that on a number of occasions (as for instance In connection with the tobac co interests and in connection with a wealthy man who wished to be con sidered for the position of minister to Belgium) contributions were imme diately declined when it found either that the donor hoped for Bome favor or even that the government was about to take some action which affected the donor or donors while as soon as It was known that certain big financiers as well as influential politicials like Mr. Odell had urged the appointment of James H. Hyde as ambassador to Prance, Mr. Cortelyou and I believe you also, protested strongly, and the financiers in question at once accepted my explanation of why it would be im possible to put so young and untried a man in such a position and aban doned all efforts to press him." President Roosevelt wrote that he believed the 1904 campaign fund had been only half as big as the Repub lican fund in 18!)6 or the Democratic fund of 1892.
