It amounted to this, said Mr. Wh'te : "I said to him. 'You are sure of your ground?' "He replied: 'Yes. "T said. 'Well, you're the boss.' This little conversation tells the whole story of the Democratic cam paign. There is nothing to it but Gov ernor Cox, who conducts it ns he pleases without conference with his partyi man agers. Apparently the mnnngers in New York trembled while the governor made his campaign fund charges for -fear he had not facts to back them up. It looks ns if he hod consulted no law- ' yer upon the value of his evidence. All that Mr. White and his associates can do now is to say that whatever evidence exists is in the governor's possession Senator Uenvon brought to rJIr. White's attention the governor's promise In his telegram to Senntor Reed to place the evidence in the senator's hands. This telegram was dated Aug ust 21.
