"JIMMY" CAREY'S PART
Tho startling chargo that former Magis

Itoosevclt delegates In the campaign of
1012, nnd that It foil through only be
causo United Slntes Senator Penrose and
State Senator McNIchol dcrllncd In put
up the money. Is made today In tho
third Instalment of the report by Hums'
detectives. This agency, working under a
fund, obtained by then Director of Pub
lic Safety Goorso D. Porter, now the
Franklin Pnitj candidate for Mayor, con
ducted an investigation of Organization
activities.
According to the report, Burns' men
tialled Caiey, McNIchol and Penrose to
Harrisburg, where n meeting was to be
held, srhiem-lthi-ch!!irsrIrfvrrwf'
vclt delegates were to be "delivcicd', ror
a certain sum of money. The meeting
was abandoned, tho repoit saye, "be
cause Itoosevclt delegates were so ocr

useless to spend money for a dozen dele

Mr. Porter's statement follows:
"At all times throughout this campaign

their Interests were well served when, to
