CANTON. O.. May 14. The Bmt day
nf Colonel Rooaevelt's eampalan In
Ohio ended here tonight with hla first
prepared apeech In the atate. It waa
a day of speechea In quick succession,
about 1 la all. aa Colonel Roosevelt
was hurried through tha eastern part
of the state.
There were large crowd wherever
he spoke. Colonel Roosevelt covered
rart of the ground which President
Taft went over and their paths crossed
ottn.
The ei-Presidnt renewed hta attack
upon hla successor. He asserted that
he would not reply to the things
which Mr. Taft amid about htm. so far
aa they were personal, but would con
fine himself to political principles.
A new point which Colonel Roosevelt
develop! was hla denial of the right
of President Taft to criticise acts of
the Roosevelt Administration. He took
the ground that as a member of the
KooMTfll Cabinet Mr. Taft waa a part
f the Administration and as a candi
date for President he made his cam
paign with the record of the Roosevelt
Administration as his platform. He
charged that the President had
"Joined the enemy."
Prevteaw PelMew Ceatlaaje.
"resident Roosevelt went on to say
that the "bosses" who were against
.Mr. Taft four year ago had not
hanged, but that It was Mr. Taft who
had changed.
"I stand by all my Administration
lid." he said, "and If 1 am again elect
ed President I shall try to administer
the Government In the Interest of all
f you. the plain people. Just as I
strove to administer It before."
Colonel Roosevelt referred re peat -edlr
to the tariff, lie advocated the es
tablishment of a bureau to Inquire Into
the effect of the tariff upon workmen,
with a view of seeing, he said, that
the proper share of the returns get
into pay envelope.
The Colonel predicted his victory
confidently. After speaking Colonel
Roosevelt left for Cleveland. He Is to
so to Dayton tomorrow.
Colonel Roosevelt In bla speech here
tonight said It was his desire to open
the campaign In tne home town of the
late President McKlnley.
Uarlaier Called Taft IJeateaaat.
He renewed hla attack on President
Taft and the men directing the Presi
dent's campaign. He referred to Sen
ator Lorlmer. of Illinois, as "Mr. Taft's
lieutenant." He strongly criticised
Representative McKlnley. manager of
the President's campaign, for referring,
as the Colonel said. In a public state
ment to the men who opposed Presi
dent Taft In the Maryland campaign as
-the rabble of the cities." In part he
said'
-We who stand for real nrorreaa
within the Republican party have been
accused) of preaching discontent and
class hatred. I don't believe that even
those who make the accusation be
lieve what they assert. Aa for the al
legation that I stir up class hatred. I
can only answer that there la not a
rla.s in this country against whom I
war except the class of crooks, finan
cial crooks and political crooks, big
crooks and little crooks. Against all
these 1 do preach war.
"I bold that thla ia Infinitely more
than an ordinary party contest. I In
sist that we who stand for the princi
ples of progressive Republicanism and
who therefore stand for making the
principles of Abraham Lincoln living
principles applied to the living issues
of today are fighting the cause, not
only of sound Republicanism, but of
good rltt lens hi p.
- 1 1 vary Lsgle" Cmdesaaed.
-We who endeavor to make the Con
stitution an Instrument through which
the people can themselves obtain Jus
tice and work out their own salvation
are its real defenders, its real uphold
ers. Our opponents are the enemies of
the Constitution. In spite of all their
l.p loyalty to It. when they Invert Its
true meaning by the refinements of at
torney logic.
"P ou think I am preaching revo
lutionary doctrine? Well. I am only
preaching the doctrine which Abraham
Lincoln preached and which everyone
rerosntte now as sane and conserva
tive. 1 stand for the referendum and
Mr. Taft Is against It.
-I ask for a referendum on a cer
tain tpe of state Judicial decisions: I
.tsk that the Vourt. aa well aa the ex
ecutive and legislative, genuinely rep
resent the will of the people. Mr. Taft
sjs he will protect the courts from
the majorltv of the people."

JUSTICE IS ASKED
Taft in Ohio Says He Wants
Only "Square Deal."
APPEAL MADE AT CANTON
President Declare Colonel Han Not
Had Hla Klephant Oan Ont for
Any "Bos-csj" Administra
tions Are Compared.
YOL'NUeTOWS. O.. Mav 14. "I am
here to ask you to do Justice and give a
square deal to an Administration of the
Government of the I'nlted States by an
Ohio man. I do not ask any favors
because 1 am an Ohio man. but I ask
Justice. And I don't know any place In
which I can make that appeal with
more force and more right than In the
home of that great Ohio President, who
was my friend and my benefactor. Wil
liam McKlnley."
That was the appeal that formed the
mainstay of President Taft on the sec
ond lap of his campaign teur of Ohio.
He based tils appeal for support In
next Tuesday's prlmarlea largely on the
achievements of his Administration and
the danger he said lay In the re-nom-Inatlon
and re-election of Colonel
Roosevelt.
The President began the day In East
Uverpool and made his last speech here
tonight.
Ssallee l.lghtea Pregrasssse.
Although Mr. Taft'a arguments were
not greatly different from those of
previous days, there were many Inci
dents that brought a smile to his face
and the faces of others who heard him.
The President himself created amuse
ment for bis hearers at Akron when
he took up his discussion of the bosses
and made his usual reference to Colonel
Roosevelt's relations with them.
"I didn't see Mr. Roosevelt get out
his elephant gun and get after any
bosses." the President said.
"I may be pusxle-wltted." he said at
Canton. That Is a question that you
cannot discuss any more than you can
discuss whether you are good looking
or not. Rut whether I am puixle
wltted or not. I know the difference
between truth and fiction. I know what
a square deal Is and I know that he
doesn't resemble Abraham Lincoln In
anv respect.
"I hope that when you go back home
you will go over the facts that I have
stated, and then examine, so far as you
may. other sources of Information.

SIGNALS ARE NOT HEEDED
Titanic Rockel Misunderstood by
Steamer California.
LONDON. May 14. Captain Stanley
Lord, captain of the liner Californlan.
testified today at the British Board of
Trade Inquiry Into the Titanic disas
ter. He said he had not tnken the ves
sel seen from the deck of the Califor
nlan to be a larse liner, but believed
It to be about the alxe of his own ship.
He added:
"It was reported In the morning that
the steamship which had been seen
during the night fired several rockets,
hut I saw only one. I thought It might
have been a company signal or an ac
knowledgment of the Californlan'a
Morse signals, by which we had been
trying to communicate with the steam
ship. If they had been distress sig
nals, I should have heard the reports
of the rockets, as the vessels were only
five miles apart. I did not hear that
the Titanic had sunk until morning.
At that time I thought, as she was re
ported to be 19 miles away, we might
have seen her sinking."
fart Meaaage Not Dlsrwaaed.
Allen Edwards. representing the
Puckers' Union, asked Captain Lord
whether he and hla officers had not
been offended by a wireless message
received rrom the Titanic telling the
Californlan to "shut up." Captain Lord
replied that they did not discuss It.
Captain Lord said that both the ap
prentice and the second officer, who
were on the bridge at night, told blm
in the morning that he had been called
In the night and a report made to him
that a vessel nearby had been firing
rockets and that he had answered the
culls. He. however, could not remem
ber doing so, and In the morning asked
the second officer why he had not been
called. That officer replied that he
would have called the captain himself
If he had thought the rockets were dis
tress signals.
"While it would be dangerous to go
through Ice, If I had known the Tltanlo
was sinking I should certainly have
done ao. although I do not believe I
could have reached her In time," said
Captain Lord.
List Starboard Noted.
Gibson, an apprentice on the Cali
fornlan. who was on the bridge the
night of the disaster, said he could not
see the outlines of the steamship
which was lying nearby, but only the
glare of her lights. He said that while
watching the steamship, which was
firing rockets, the second officer re
marked that the steamship was not
firing rockets at sea for nothing, and
that she appeared to have a heavy list
to starboard. He did not think the
vessel was in distress exactly, but was
In trouble of some sort. He thought
she was a tramp steamship.
Lord Mersey asked: "Would you ex
pect to see the glare of the light of a
tramp steamship?"
-Yes."
Gibson further testified that at S:40.
long after the Titanic had sunk, he saw
another rocket.

TRUST PAYS REBATE
Exclusive Dealing Condition of
Tin Plate Concession.
PRIVATE BRANDS ASSIGNED
Combine Declared by Witness In
Suit Against Steel Corporation
to Ha-ve Admitted Its De
sire for Control.
NEW YORK, May 14. That the
American Tlnplate Company deliber
ately suppressed competition and paid
rebates to Jobbers upon condition that
they should handle the trust's goods
exclusively was testified today by
James T. MacFarland. a Philadelphia
Jobber, in the Government's suit to dis
solve the United States Steel Corpora
tion. MacFarland said he had handled
many special private brands of tlnplate
which Independent companies manufac
tured for him. These brands he was
forced to assign to the American Tin
plate Company in ll, with a stipula
tion that he would not buy his tin-
plate elsewhere. According to a letter
from the tlnplate company to his firm,
which was Identified, the "trust's" pur
pose was "to protect this company In
the exclusive manufacture of plate."
Later, he said, the American Tlnplate
Company made an arrangement with
Jobbers whereby the company offered
rebates on condition that the Jobbers
purchase their tlnplate entirely from
It. The rebate was from 1 to J per
cent, he said, and was subsequently
based on $0 and then 85 per cent of
the total amount the Jobber bought.
Rraada Eaaeatlal te Business.
Competitors of the tlnplate company
were not willing to make this discount,
testified MacFarland. and he added that
the company was "not willing to manu
facture brands for us in our name
without being protected by this con
tract." "And If-we forfeited our brands," he
continued, "we lost our business repu
tation." Howard M. Davis, of Philadelphia,
