At Exposition Hall a "citixenship rally"
awaited the Colonel's coming. Five thou

as tie ptiests ascended to the platform.

the tvlonel smiled. The crowd broke
out anew. Women helped .out in the
station, too, for in boxes on either aide
were reservations for the leaders of the
promnlent women's civic clubs and civic
organizations.
It was five minutes before Mayor
Majree and President fCngrlish. of the
civic committee were allowed to make
introductory speeches. Over the stage
from which Colonel Roosevelt spoke
hung a huge map of the world, on
which was pulnted black lines show

Kurope and America.
Pittj-burg Typically American.
The Colonel said In part:
"I have always liked Pittsburg. I
think that Pittsburg represents in
many respects an epitome of the Amer
ican people. It has the characteris
tics of our people developed to an
unusual degree, energy, power, force,
keen buslenss Intelligence, rigid in
dustry. Immense versatility of mind,
all of the qualities of a vigorous,
masterful people. I wish I could stop
there, but there are certain American
traits which you all possess that are
less desirable.
"AS a nation we have sometimes
tended to think only of the things of
the body; as a nation we have some
times taken a hard, material, short
sighted pride In being; merely practical
and not dreamers.
"The short-sighted men. the timid
men and tbe men of sordid mind al
ways turn, when such a work as that
which this association has done under
Mr. Kngllsh has been accomplished,
and say: 'You ought not to do that:
you hurt Ilttsburg. The people that
hurt 'Pittsburg are the people that are
corrupt.
"It was my good fortune to have a
connection with the beginning of the
Inquiry In this city that developed the
extraordinary crookedness. At that
time I was ITesldcnt. and after the cor
respondence one or two of your repre
sentative citizens camo to me and said
that they had every reason to believe
tiiat an examination of certain banks
would disclose a scandalous connection
between certain business men and cer

ACTS OI' VIOLENCE DENOUNCED
Colonel Would Be Vnlon .Man, but
Would Not Use Coercion.
COLUMBUS. O.. Sept. 10. Coming to
day to the scene of the street-car riots
which kept Columbus In a state of dis
order for weeks, ex-Presldent Koose
velt. In a speech here, denounced In
the strongest terms the acts of law
lessness snd the men who committed
them. The state capltol Is still being
guarded by the militia and Colonel
Roosevelt was escorted by United
States troops from the Columbus bar
racks. As the strike Is still on. J. C. Met
calf. chairman of the Roosevelt recep
tion committee, asked President Taft
to assign the reuular troops to escort
the ex-Presldent today and the I'resi-'
dent consented.
The Colonel raised his voice to the
highest pitch and. with fists clenched
and his face set sternly he told them
that It was their first duty to repress
lawlessness.
Mayor Marshall, of Columbus, whose
conduct of tho police force, during the
strike has been the subject of much dis
cussion, said to Colonel Roosevelt after
he had finished his address:
"You do not know the. strength you
have given me."
Policemen who heard tho ex-President
denounce the officer of the law who did
not repress lswlessness went to him and
shook his hand.
Colonel Roosevelt proceeded at the head
of a parade to the park, half a mile from
the station, where he dellevered hia
speech. Mayor Ueorge S. Marshall oc
cupied a seat on the platform from
which Colonel Roosevelt spoke.
"As soon as I entered Ohio and ever
since. I have from time to time been
addressed by letter and even peraonally
by both sides, asking me to come to Co
lumbus and speak." said Colonel Roose
velt. "I will aay frankly that I do not
like to come here, but I like still less
dodging, and so I have come.
"If we stop content with the mere
establishment of law and order, we
fail to do our further duty, which Is
by thorough-going Investigation to find
out whether Justice has been denied
and Injustice committed, and then to
use the whole power of the Govern
ment to right any wrung that has been
done.
"Let the employes remember that It
may be well to the Interest of some of
their leaders, for political or other rea
sons, to have lawlessness and disorder
continue, but that It Is pre-eminently
against the Interest of the worklngmcn
themselves.
"Of course, to dismiss men for asking
for an increase of wages would be
such an Infamy that I can hsrdly be
lieve It occurred, but you should find
out definitely. To dismiss men for
membership In or for proposing to Join
a union would be almost as bad. The
union Is Just as much a necessity of
our modern Industrial system as the
corporation itself. Both must obey the
lsw, but each Is a necessity. Under
modern conditions It la often necessary
that there should be collective bargain
ing on the part of the men. and this
can only come throught the union.
"I am an honorary member of a
union myself. If I were a wage-earper
engaged In manual labor, I should cer
tainly Join the union. Union men have
no right to force other wage workers
Into the union. As was so well set
forth In the admirable report of the
anthracite strike commission, such ac
tion is as gross a violation of right as
is the so-called -secondary boycott.'
"But is is equally an outrage for the
employer to discriminate against the
unions and to fall to work with them
in a spirit of cordial good faith on
both sides. Moreover, if your present
arbitration law is not sufficiently
stringenL make It more stringent, and
If it Is unconstitutional, amend the con
stitution. But do not wait to remedy
any present wrongs until the constitu
tion Is amended.
"In conclusion, friends, your duties
are two-fold: first, at once and without
equivocation and hesitation, to enforce
order, suppress violence and see that
the law is obeyed in letter and spirit;
second, as soon as this result has been
achieved, turn at once to the great
question of Justice and exert your
whole power to find out the facts,
treating any refusal to give you all the
tacts as a confession of guilt.
T. It. Plans Tour of Texas.
SAN ANTONIO, Tex., Sept. 10. Col
onel Carl Lyon, chairman of the Re
publican State Executive Committer,
who is here conferring with the local
Republican leaders, announced today
that ex-Presldent Roosevelt would tour
Texas next March. Colonel Lyon will
meet Colonel Roosevelt In New York
next -anuary and the Itinerary for the
latter will then be arranged.
SPIRITS MUST STAND TEST
Psychological Society Wauts Proof
James Sends Message.
NEW YORK, Sept. 10. The fact that
several spiritualistic mediums recently
asserted that they have received mes
sages from the late Professor William
James, of Harvard, one of whose fa
vorite themes was the possibility of
communication between the dead and
the living, has led the Metropolitan
Psychological Society to propose a test
as to the validity of all such assertions.
The society offers a prise of $1000 to
any medium who will obtain from the
spirit of professor James, when It
speaks through them, a statement of
the contents of a certain letter sent by
him a few days before his death to
VV. S. Davis, secretary of the society.
Mr. Lavls has the letter from Professor
James in his safe. No one else has seen
It or has received from him any Inkling
of its contents. Tbe president of the
Psychological Society, in making pub
lic the prise offer, makes the following
comment on the alleged "message" thus
far put forward by various mediums:
"The great difficulty with all the
messages which have so far been pub
lished is that they are vague. Indefinite
and trashy, and could have been con
cocted by anyone. Such alleged com
munications have Invariably followed
the demise of all persona of note in
the spiritualistic world, but the very
simple test herein proposed will
considerably narrow down the ques
tion a rl may easily be within the
capability of any person actually in
communication with tbe spirit of the
late Professor James.
"We recognise In Professor James a
great and open-hearted investigator.
We have striven to maintain his spirit
of open-mlndedness toward all asser
tions snd have endeavored to give them
a full hearing and fair trying out. That
we have never encountered any phe
nonema of a superhuman kind does not
wholly discourage us from looking Into
any fresh assertions advanced as to the
existence of such."
CABINET CALLED TO MEET

L0RIMER QUITS HIS CLUB
(Continued From First Pag'.'
the fact remains tiiat tnerc are a large
number of us who believe that the or
ganization should make Senator Loii
mer a public apology for the Insult
he suffered at the hands of the club's
president.
"If Colonel Roosevelt could so far
forget that he Is presumed to be a
gentleman, that Is his affair; but the
club certiunly should have refused to
be a party to such a breach of ethics
or common courtesy. Whether we
shaU resign from the organization ;s

it, any more than It has to pry Into a
