President Roosevelt believes that Chilion B. Allen understands how short of money the campaign committees are. Roosevelt believes that William H. Taft and Governor Charles Evans Hughes are doing everything they can for him, but asks for the name of Rev. D. D. of Brooklyn, who Allen says is “accepting Republican money.”
