T. W. Heller, of Washington, ap
pearing for Senator Owen, Democrat,
Oklahoma, was the first witness today
Oklahoma supporters of the senator,
he testified, raised S7S10 for the
campaign, nnd $2000 was given
through the Washington headquarters.
Samuel Fntermyer. of New York, who
gnve S1000, he said, was the only large
contributor, though Charles Owen, of
Oklahoma, a cousin of the candidate,
gnte $500 at the start.
"Cnu you run n pretty good presi
dentinl cnmpalgn ou $10,000?" asked
Chairman Kenyon.
"We could hate used considerably
more." Mr Heller replied. "Our total
could all be expended in n single state

Continued from Pits One
souri, for exnmple, with thirty-six
totes. Mr. Johnson has succeeded iu
showing that Missouri Republican lend
ers succeeded in getting , $3S,000 of
Governor Low den's money. There was
no campaign In Missouri, no prlmnrles,
no reason for the expenditure of money .
The Missouri leaders and Missouri
delegates do not enjoy hating the fierce
white light 'of publicity shed upon that
transaction.
The last thing that eter will happen
will be the shift of Missouri's deJtgatcit
from Low den to Johnson. The
California senator Is that unpopular
figure the "man that crabbed the
gnnie."
There Is no mistaking tthnt has hap
pened. In huudiug the senate iutestl
gating committee over to Senator John
son, the Republicans have created the
most serious situation for the party that
lias existed since 11H2.
If they go on with the investigation
they mat make their leading candidates
foi President uuatailable. If they pus
sy foot they furnish n campaign issue
to tne uetnocrnts and may set .loan
son to sulking In his teut. They arc
playing with the fire of factionalism.
It is impossible to estimate the ef
fect of revelations so far made. It
will be Impossible to estimate effects
until after the full story of ood s use
of money is told. Wood entered into
nuint more contests than Low den nnd
the general belief is thnt his mnnngers
spent money much more freely than
Low ilen did
The expectation of Washington,
nfter hearing the testimont of Low
den's manager yesterday, is that Wood's
availability ns a candidate will be
greatly lessened after his campaign ex
penditures nie made known.
With regard to Low den, Washington
is speculating as to whether or not he
would not "get bv" with his S4I4.000
on the ground that it would seem small
compared to Colonel Procter's outpour
ing of wealth In behalf of Gencrnl Wood
But there seems general agreement
that Low den wns hurt by what his man
ager retealed yesterday People ask
what would the Democrats sny in the
...I..... (.& nt.. htrf Ia.ma tiAHnlinl WlYW
trlbution. The? point to tho Missouri
expenditure ot ?4U,uuu wmen icnus to
confirm tho report In Washington the
Missouri this spring waa open to the
highest bidder.
And there Is the .$0000 given to an
other Johnson, a negro politician In
Georgia, who Is leading a contest ngninst
tho Wood delegates from thnt state.
The Kenyon committee may go on to
scrutinize closely such Items as the
ciiorvn I,, nnnrf-ln finii Mm S-10.000 in
Missouri. That was Senator Borah h
plan, but If It does so there Is likely
to be n retolt among Its members, ac
companied by resignations.
'Hie Investigation seems to be bended
townrd forcing the nomination of some
one who has not participated in the pri
mary contests. Talk of n dark horse
hnd died away in the last few weeks. It
being generully conceded that the con
vention would name either Wood. Low
den, Johnson or possibly Knox, who
slnre Senator Penrose's pronotiiiemeut
in his favor has ceased to be a dark
horse.
Hut with the Kenyon committee's
tlelvings, the dnrk horse come back Into
the rnce. They say today that if the
Chicago contention, on account of the
primary expenditures, Is afraid to nom
inate Wood, It will be equally afraid
to nominate Lotvdeu, nt the same time
it will be too angry at Johnson to nom
inate him.
In such n situation Kuox looms large,
which mny show that Senator Peuioe
knew tthnt he was about when he gnve
his npproval to a Johnson investigation
of Johnson's primary rivals.
