ROOSEVELT WILL
BACK BEVER1DEE
Promises Speech in Aid of In
surgent Chief, but Feels
Way Cautiously.
MANY VISITORS RECEIVED

discuss the political situation ' In In
diana. "I have no doubt Mr. Roosevelt will
give' out anything lie wishes to be
come public about the interview," aaid
Mr. Beverldge. "I gave my views on
tfe Indiana situation fully, in a formal
(statement several days ago," he added.
"Did you come away pleased with
the results of your visit?"
. The Senator's smile broadened until
be laughed aloud.
""Well." he said,v "I have had many
talks with Mr. Roosevelt in the last
few years, but never in my experience
have I had one more satisfactory than
that of today."
Further than this Mr. Beveridge
would not go.
"I start on my vacation tomorrow,"
he added, "and needless to say, I go
In a very happy frame of mind."
Mr. Beveridsre said he came to Oyster
Bay by appointment and that his visit
had nothing to do with the other visi
tors here today.
" I found Colonel Roosevelt," he said,
jnore alive and more interesting in
things than ever."
Churchill Tells of His Tight.
Winston Churchill was as careful as
Mr. Beveridse to keep back any speci
fic information as to the conversation
between Theodore Roosevelt and him
self. "Colonel Roosevelt has been Inter
ested in the fight since it began In
3908, when I ran for Governor." he said.
This year Robert R. Bass of Peters
boro, is a candidate for Governor. He
may be classed with the insurgents,
but the New Hampshire Republican or
ganization has not opposed his nomina
tion. Mr. Roosevelt wanted to know
about the situation in New Hampshire
and. as I am an old friend of his, I
came down to tell him.
"Did Mr. Roosevelt indicate his atti
tude in regard to the fight In New
Hampshire?"
"Only by his friendly attitude. He
Bald nothing to show his views."
Then Mr. Churchill produced a paper
on which he had written a statement.
Here it is:
"Our whole purpose In Xew Hamp
shire this Summer is to make Mr. Bass
Governor and to elect a Legislature to
support him. We have done nothing
else, we have meddled with nothing
.else. We know Mr. Bass Is uncom
promising. He has been with the pro
gressive movement since It started. He
Is incapable of making political deals.
"The people of the state trust him
and his nomination and election will
be a clear-cut victory, a signal stage
in the fight we began four years ago."
Carter Says Division Overestimated.
ifr. Carter looked gravely at the in
terviewers and Informed them the
people in his part of the country were
.not hearing much about the insurgent
movement Just now. The Senator went
alone and returned to New York alone.
On his return from Sagamore Hill he
said that while his visit was not' a
political one, he had given the Colonel
considerable information about the
situation in the West.
"I assured him," sflid Mr. Carter,
."that the alleged divisions in the West
were greatly exaggerated and that
many of us were trying to obtain the
came ends through different methods."
Mr. Carter said he had assured Col
onel Roosevelt that the strength of the
Insurgent movement in the Northwest
had been overestimated. The Senator
was asked if there was any possibility
of a breach between 'resident Taft and
Colonel Roosevelt, and he replied:
"I can see no danger of it. Mr. Roose
velt will probably have more of a
soothing Influence than any other."
In addition to the political talks,
Colonel Roosevelt also found time to
talk about hunting in Africa. John
Burroughs, the naturalist, who spent
the night at Sagamore Hill, and T. J.
Ader, who dropped in for luncheon,
swapped stories of the jungle with him.
No politicians are expected at Sagamore
Hill tomorrow. .

FARGO, N. D., July 7. Colonel
Roosevelt has promised Congressman
Hanna that he will deliver an address

of holding back anything from the pres
ent generation, but was designed 'for the
utilization of the resources today without

Greet Laden Bont on Its
Arrival at Port.
' LOS ANGELES, Cal., July 7. (Special.)
Today was a gala day at the harbor
when the. new five-day service of the
San Francisco & Portland Steamship
Company was Initiated by the arrival of
the Beaver, with 100 passengers and 600
tons of freight. The run from Astoria
to San Francisco was the fastest on
record. The new steamer clipped off the
distance in 35 hours from Astoria and 43
hours from Portland.
'Had it not been for a heavy fog last
night the Beaver might also have estab
lished a new record between this port
and San Francisco. For two hours oft
Point Conception, the big coaster pro
ceeded under slow bell. Even with this
handicap the Beaver made the run in 25
hours.
As the Beaver entered the harbor this
morning the President, the only liner
on the Coast, except for her sister, the
Governor, was leaving for Seattle. The
two steamers exchanged salutes. On her
last trip up the Coast the President raced
with the Beaver for six hours between
Cape Mendocino and Cape Blanc. After
a neck-and-neck run for nearly the entire
distance, Captain Kidson, of the Beaver,
called on the engine-room for another
knot or two, and the Beaver shot across
the bow of the President and left her
behind.
Captain Kidson Proud of. Record.
"And I am going to blow about this
record -for a whole year," said Captain
Kidson today, -"for our schedules will not
permit another race until then. I got a
nice wirelass message from Captain
Cousins, of the President, over that race."
A crowd of several" hundred people
gathered at the dock today to greet the
Beaver. Among the notables were T. A.
Graham, general passenger and freight
agent of the Southern Pacific: C. H. Leh-.
man, president of the Independent Steam
ship Company; Messrs. Brandt, Duncan
and Flint, agents for the Pacific Coast
