Former Member of

President Roosevelt now has before
him the petition Of a dlshonorably dis
charged soldier of the Twenty-fifth IN
fantry 20 be allowed 10 re-enlIst in the
army. The petition was sent TO him
yesterday afternoon by Secretary OF
War Taft TO make q test case of the
large number OF petitions which
threaten 10 be filed in the War De

is likely that the former soldiers them
selves will call at the White House

cry member Of the Cabinet and az
least one member OF the Committee
on Foreign Relations Of the Senate,
he bitterly assails the President for
insincerity and double dealing, and
charges him with improper conduct in
writing 10 Mrs. Storer a letter, which,
Mr.. Storer declares, the President
showed to various persons before
mailing, and which had the deliberate
purpose OF putting in a false position
a lady who was unable To make any
defense.
Charges Sinking Blunder.
He specifically attributes to the Presi-
dent a purpose 10 NEEDLE in the tangled
politics of the Vatican, and, having inn
posed upon the friendship Of the Storcrs
10 execute his diplomatic missions, o.
later changing ais attitude and heaping
disgrace upon them To cover his own po-
litical DIunders.
In particular, Bellamy Storer asserts
that President Roosevelt wrote a letter
TO Mrs. StOrer favoring the elevation
of Archbishop ireland TO the cardinalate.
which he requested Mrs. Storer to show
Il Eampo!la. then cardinal secretary OF
state; and then. when that mission had
been performed and a storm arose
throughout Europe over United States
interference in papaI politics. Roosevelt
deliberately repudiated the actions Of
the St0rers and swept the ambassador
from Office.
Charges Against Mrs. Suorer.
1t Will be recalled that the reasons as
signed for Storer's dismissal from Of
I,f.-
interference in the affairs OF the Roman
Catholic Church and her alleged mis-
use of letters from the President. It
was also charged that Mrs. Storer had
meddled with French politics by taking
part in an anti-repUblic intrigue 10 pro-
mote the marriage of Prince Victor
Bonaparte with member Of the Or
leanist family.
Both of these charges Mr.. Storer de-
nies. and on the other hand declares
that the Presidents interest in the Sc
lection of Archbishop ireland as a car
diual was not due to Storer or Storer's
wife. but to the President alone.
The correspondence shows the famil-
lar relations Of the President and the
Storers from the time Roosevelt was
governor of New York, just after the
Spanish war. Some Of the Roosevelt
letters 10 Storer were addressed My
Dear Bellamy." and to his wife My
Dear Maria" and Mrs. Storer addressed
the President as Dear Theodore"
The revelations made by Mrs. Storer
are before the Foreign Relations Com
mittee OF The Senate and in the White
House
The White House says positively that
a reply may be expected. but that it
may not be given out today.
