SUBJECT OF TIRADE BY MM Colonel Retires Early as He Expects Little Rest During Next Few Weeks. HE STARTS SOUTH IN WEEK Ex-Preidrnt Plnroa His Ren-lots at Disposal of Republican State Committee In Xew York and Will Make Many Speeches. OYSTER BAY. N. Y.. Sept. Theo dore Roosevelt returned early this evening from Saratoga, with the scalp of the Republican old guard of Xew York added to his big colfection of tro phies. When he reached Troy. N. Y-. early last Monday on his way to Saratoga, he to'd the crowd at the statlm thu; he !: returned from Africa with a ?ot of tmphifs. and that when he cams back from Saratoga he would have, some more. (o.onel Roosevelt went to bei early toairht to get a good nlghfs sleen. for he r.iccts to have little re. until af tr e:Cct'on. He was tired ami hoarse when he reached Sagamore Hi'l. but In fine spirits. " He expressed himself as well pleased with the result of the con vention, but had no other comment to make on anything related to politics. Colonel Makes Speech. The Colonel took a train from Sara toga at 8 o'clock this morning. Reach ing Poughkeepsie at noon, he attended a luncheon, drove two miles to the Imchess County fair grounds, made a speech there and returned to the sta tion In an hour and a half. His Pough keepsie speech contained no reference to politics except a repetition of bis as sertion that corruption must not bo tot em ted. In reaching Xew York late In the af ternoon he started at once for Oyster Bay by automobile. He had no visitors this evening, and said that he hoped to have a quiet time for the next two days, as there will be no let-up when once the campaign Is fairly under way. He has placed his services at the disposal of the Republican State Committee and ropes to make at least one speech In eevry county in the state. Trip South to Begin in Week. In addition to the campaign at Corner Colonel Roosevelt has a great deal to do elsewhere before election time. A week from today he Is to start on his Southern trip, which will extend over a little more than a week. On this trip he will speak at Knoxvllle. Tenn.. he fore the Appalachian Exposition: In At lanta at the I'ncle Remus day celebra tion and In Hot Springs. Ark. Then, turning north, he will speak at Peoria. 111., before the Knights of Columbus, and will make a campaign speech In Indiana for Senator Beverldge. Roosevelt Will Aid Lodge. In the latter part of October the Colo nel Is to go to Massachusetts to help Senator Lodge by a campalim speech. and to New Hampshire to speak for Robert Bass, the Republican candidate for Governor. This trip probably will be made on October 21 and 21. Early In November he Is to start for Iowa to make two speeches just before election, He also has promised to go to Ithaca, X. Y. for a day's tour of abandoned farms. With these journeys to make In ad dltion to the campaign speeches that will carry him all over his own state, Colonel Roosevelt says he expects to have a fairly busy time of It. At his office In New York tomorrow the Coionel will hcJld some conferences to lay the first plans for the campaign, Lord Macaulay's Description of Fiendish Torture of Europeans. Maucaulay's Essay on Lord Clive. Then was committed that great crime, memorable for Its singular at rocity, memorable for the terrible ret ribution by which It was followed. The English captive were left at the mercy of the guards, and the guards determined to secure ' them for the night In the prison of the garrison, a chamber known by the fearful name of the Black Hole. Even for a single European malefactor the dungeon would, in such a climate, have been too close and narrow. The space was only 20 feet square. The air-holes were small and obstructed. It was the Summer solstice, the season when the fierce heat of Bengal can scarcely be rendered tolerable to natives of England by lofty halls and by the con stant waving of fans. The number of the prisoners was 14. When they were ordered to enter the cell, they imagined that the soldiers were joking, and being In high spirits on account of the promise of the nabob to spare their lives, they laughed and Joked at the absurdity of the notion. They soon discovered their mistake. They expos tulated, they entreated, hut In vain. Men to Head Democratic Tick et in New York Not Decid ed on Yet.

The platform Is exceptionally clear and forceful, save only In reference to direct nomination. "In that regard it need explanation of its meaning, and explanations will differ. I preferred the minority plank, which was clear and unequivocal. "The ticket named is most excelent.

They cried for They strove to burst the door. who even in that extremity retained some presence of mind, of- fered large bribes to the gaolers. Hut the answer was that nothing could be done without the nabob's orders; that the nabob was asleep and that he would be angry if anyone awoke him. Then the prisoners went mad with despair. They trampled each other down, fought for the places at the win dows, fought for the pittance of water with which the cruel ..mercy of the murderers mocked their agonies, raved, prayed, blasphemed. implored the guards to fire among them. The gaol ers in the meantime held lights to the bars and shouted with laughter at the frantic struggles of their victims. At length the tumult died away in low gasplngs and moaning. The day broke. The nabob had slept off hia de bauch and permitted the door to be opened. But It was some time before the soldiers could make a Jane for the survivors by piling up on each side the heaps of corpses on which the burn ing climate bad already begun to do its loathsome work.

Major Morrow Will Go to Klamath Falls to View Work and Con sult With Associates. In order to hasten preparation of a report on the Tillamook Bay harbor im provements so that it can be placed in the hands of the Board of Engineers at Washington by the first part of Decem ber, Major Morrow, district engineer, will leave soon for Klamath Falls to confer with Colonel Bid; To and Major Coots, the other members of the original com mittee designated by the War Department to make an inspection of the Tillamook and Bay City harbors. On account of duties holding them on the Klamath irrigation project. Colonel tsiddie and Major t oots were unable to accompany Major Morrow to Tillamook last week when the preliminary inspec tion was made. Under the circumstances, it remained for the one official to visit the harbor and then confer with the other members of the committee. When this conference will be be se be put Into shape, but it is understood that the report-will be completed aa soon i possible. It was inferred from Major Morrow's visit to Tillamook last week that he was i well Impressed with the proposed projoct that he cannot lose. Ilia managers say tonight that he will enter the conven tlon tomorrow with the delegates to elect him safely pledged. Edward M. Shepard said everything he had heard today tended to encourage him. But the situation, in short, comes back to this: What will Murphy do? It was generally believed he would try his best to make good his promise of conciliating up-state sentiment, but that if he found it impossible, he would jam through his own preference. Parker's Address Feature. Except for the address of Alton B. Parker today, the opening session of the convention was purely routine. Mr. Parker read his address from manu script In measured tones. He was greeted with scattered applause. But the real enthusiasm came when he laid aside his set speech and launched with energy into a bitter at tack on executive Interference In legis lative and Judicial affairs and the as cendancy of Theodore Roosevelt in the late convention at Saratoga, whicti, he said, had been achieved by the aid of federal officeholders in the face of in sincere denunciation of machine rule and the bosses. Conunittees Are Named. At the conclusion of the speech, the committees on contested seats, perma nent organization and resolutions were named, and adjournment was taken un til tomorrow. The committee on resolutions went into session late In the afternoon and deputized Its deliberations on the plat- lorm to a sub-committee which lncld ed Seymour Van Sant, Oord of Rensse laer. chairman of the full committee. morgan j. u unen.

The first tarlfT act was In 1789. and the average duties were 84 per cent. Now the average Is 60 per cent. The Republican party is responsible for this Increase and for the thousands of mil lions of dollars that through It have been taken from the people to create the swollen fortunes that President Roosevelt deuounces vigorous. 8trange, is It no;, that he did not suggest that the way to prevent their creation In the future was to reduce the tariff which made them possible? Aa to revision of the tarlfT downward, the Republican National machine would have none of It.
