dsr-ns "absolutely untrue" and "per.
feclly ridiculous"
Declaring he seconded cordially

al Chulrman Hays to tho democratic
nomlneo to produce evldenco of fx
cesslve republican contributions Mr.

Court Undoi-Mandlng.
"We court the fullest understand
lng' of our funds. In ever respect"
raid the republican nominee In com
mentlng on Governor Cox's speech of
yesterday. "Not only arc statement
of exccwlve expenditures absolutely
untrue but ns a matter of fact we
ure having difficulty In producing
the funds wo legitimately need tn
conduct tho campaign as It should
be conducted. Stories of a J 15000
000 fund are perfectly rldioulous"
Senator Harding added that the
wavexf advancing costs and tho on
francnlscment of women had ralced
the legitimate financial requirements
ot a natlonil campaign but ho do
clared his nartv's money chest con
t allied "nothing like" total named by
v.hls democratic opponent. Asked
tviother anv of tho money raised by
tho national committee beforo the
Chicago convention would be used In
the campaign lie said It all had been
expended by convention time and
that In making Its arrangements at
Chicago the party treasury had been
compelled to borrow "something

The senators att7ntlon alio wan
called to uovernor Cox H cnarges
tKat tho limit fixed by republican
managers had been evaded by "dum-
my" contributions. Thu republican
nominee again declaied he would
welcome any proof of tho as.ertlon
and when ho was aiked whether the
party would return money found to
nave ncen given tnrougn -uummy
contributors ho replied:
"I think that Is rather a far-
fetched hypothesis."
In dUcus'lng tho added expense
of carrying the campaign to the new-
ly enfranchised women. the candi-
date said his party would not change
lis campaign machinery materially
on that account. Personally he said
he expected to mako "no particular
appeal for the votes of tho women"
"1 do not believe' said Senator
Harding "Inmaking a distinction by
appending to either sex or to any
class of such. My campaign will bo
directed to the citizenry of the
1'nlted Btattn and take the view
that women come Info that citizenry
on the same basis as men."
The nominee rielarcd ho did not
expect enfranchisement of women to
"chango the political complexion of
any state" adding that experience in
the suffrage states had shown thu
wisdom of his opinion
Senator Harding did not sav
whether. In any of hij four speeches
during the coming week he would
innke a more formal reply to tho
charges of the democratic nominee.
He suggested however that ho con-
sidered tlje. next move should como
from Governor Cox In reply to the
challenge for proof of Ms assertions.
