ITHACA. X. Y., Oct SO. Twice In his speech tonight Professor E. H. Wood ruff, of Cornell University, called Theo dore Roosevelt a liar, once an "unmiti gated liar."

" Judge Alton B. Parker then begged the audience to allow Professor. Woodruff to be heard. The notoy part of the house complied and the rest of the programme went on more quietly. "Unmitigated Liar" Repeated. Profeseor Woodruff began 6y reopening the Bellamy Storer episode, which Colo nel Roosevelt only recently declared was closed. He charged that when the Colo nel denied sending Bellamy Storer to the Vatican, be was "an unmitigated liar." and there were letters In hla pos- Ion. he said, to bear him out. The uproar had barely subsided when the professor took up bis cudgels again. Roosevelt was twice a liar, si t'A when he denied that the late E. H. Harriman had subscribed to a corruption fund to be used for Roosevelt's election to the Presidency. He closed with s quotation from the Italian historian of Rome, Fer rero. transferred from Clodlus, to whom It was originally applied by the writer, to Roosevelt. Tha speaker was careful to specify that he meant to Imply no comparison between the private lives of Clodlus and Roosevelt. The quota tion follows: "The youngest recruit In the ranks of the proletariat, who knew no scruples and combined the violence of the dema gogue with the self assurance of the aristocrat. was prepared to assert his claim to dominate the community not so much by his intellect. which was Indeed no way remarkable, but by the one quality In which he out shone all his rivals by his uncontrollable audacity."

Judge Parker, who came from Owego today by automobile, re ferred to the automobile review of de fied farms, which Colonel Roosevelt will make next Monday with Representa tive John W. Dwlght. aa follows: "Inquiry at the Owego Daily Record office brought the reply that there are no abandoned forma in this county. This seemed to indorse the bulletins imued by the Agricultural Department at Wash ington. However. I pursued my inquiry and looked out for the appearance of the abandoned farms all the way to Ithaca.
