ROOSEVELT HANDS OFF
IN PARTY CONTESTS
He Gives Out Vigorous State
ment to This Effect Speaks
for Beveridge Oct. 81

NEW YORK, July 29.-United States
Senator Albert j.. Beveridge, of Indiana,
was an early caller today at Theodore
Roosevelt's offices, reaching there only a
few moments after Colonel Roosevelt
himself entered his editorial quarters on
arriving from Oyster Bay, for his second
visit of the week.
The colonel was evidently expecting the
Indiana senator and left directions that
the latter be shown in at once when he
put in an appearance.
Colonel Roosevelt, after his talk with
Senator Beveridge, announced that his
Indiana speech for Senator Beveridge
would be delivered in Indianapolis Octo-
Der 10.
Senator Beveridge called on me last
night at Oyster Bay" said Colonel
Roosevelt land again this morning. I
did not know he was coming. L shall
make my Indiana speech in Indianapo-
lis"
Senator Beveridge told the newspaper
men that he had just run in from Indl-
ana for a few hours and was going back
right away He declined to talk of his
visit with the colonel.
William G. Stanton, of Bayonne, n.
j., a brother of Speaker Philip A. Stan
ton, of the assembly of California, who
is a candidate for the Republican nomi-
nation for governor Ill that state called
on Colonel Roosevelt today. Mr.. Stan
ton has been stirred by newspaper reports
that Colonel Roosevelt was for Hiram
job nson, another insurgent" candidate,
and that Clifford Pinchot had gone west
in Mr.. Johnson's interest. Colonel
Roosevelt made the following statement
in the matter:
IT have told Mr.. Stanton that l have
refused to take part in this contest for
the nomination for governor, just as L
have refused to take part in all similar
contests No man represents me or has
any authorization to speak FOR me In TINS
matter or in any similar matter concern
ing a contest for nomination
"I would like to add that 1t ought 20
be unnecessary for me to repeat this
statement, which have made again AMI
again, for If 1 should take part in any
one such contests 1 would be expected
to take part in literally hundreds.
(Signed)
THEODORE ROOSEVELT"

Hoke Smith Given
Ovation on Street

When Hoke Smith left his office in the
Peters building Saturday afternoon at
6 o'clock and went to the corner of Peach
tree and Decatur streets to board his
street car for home he was given big
ovation by many Of his supporters Dur
ing the short ten minutes that he stood
at the corner awaiting his car he spoke
to and shook hands with about 100 voters.
To a casual observer it looked as If
Mr.. Smith was making political speech.
but he was not talking politics, but
merely shaking hands with his numerous
friends. He talked with those who
crowded about him until his car arrived
and then he left for his home. Had he
remained ten minutes longer the street
would have been completely blocked by
those who endeavored to shake hands
with him.

SHIPPERS ORGANIZE To
FIGHT FREIGHT RATES

CHICAGO, July 29.-An important step
in the organization of a powerful force
to battle with the railroad interests over
the matter of increasing freight rates
was taken yesterday at meeting of the
National Industrial committee and the
committee OF IL appointed at the big
rate congress in May. Twenty-three
men represented Is cities and nearly
every large Industrial interest in the
north Mississippi valley were present. 1t
was stated at the close of an all-day
session that 1t was the most harmonious
gathering ever held on the subject and
that while the discussions were broad
and extensive, the result was perfect
unanimity. The following committee was
appointed to lay the case before the
interstate commerce commission:
COMMITTEE APPOINTED.
f. B. Montgomery, Chicago chairman;
L. ]. McVann, Omaha; ]. c. Lincoln,
Omaha; Z. E. Williamson. Cincinnati:
II. c. Barlow. Chicago; w. P. Trickett,
Minneapolis; H. G. Wilson, Kansas City.
Trickett, McVann and Wilson will have
special charge of the conduct of the case
so far as 1t concerns the west and Lin
coin, Williamson and Barlow of that
portion most affecting the east. while as
a whole it will present the( claims of the
shippers.
CITIES REPRESENTED.
The cities represented were Minneapo-
lis, st. Louis, st. Joseph, Kansas
City, Chicago, Cincinnati, Rockford, CO.
lumbus Indianapolis, Pittsburg, Buffalo
and Dayton.
The sentiment was expressed by the
speakers that there should be no attempt
made to deprive the railroads of any
thing that it is found they are entitled
to, but that an effort should be made
TO prove that an increase in rates on
all lines is not justified.

JOHN LIND NAMED FOR
GOVERNOR OF MINNESOTA

MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, July 29.-Demo-
cratic storm signals which were flying
when the state Democratic convention
met here yesterday were torn to shreds
by the tempest of feeling which was let
loose late in the afternoon over the
nomination of John Lind, for governor,
and the attempt to introduce a direct
resolution in the party platform favor
ing county option.
For more than three hours there was
no let-up to the scene of disorder ex-
cept for a few moments, when Chair
man Michael DAILY managed to make him
self heard after terrific pounding with
a piece of 2x4 scantling. which he used
as a gavel.
Mutterings of trouble were heard
early in the day and an unusual condi-
ton existed. The entire convention was
a unit in declaring that John Lind was
one of the best Democrats in Minnesota.
They were all his friends, but divided
into two factions, one declaring that Lind
must be nominated despite his repeated
refusal to be a candidate for the nomi-
nation and his final fat declaration in a
telegram from Portland, Ore, that he
would not accept the nomination If made;
the other declaring that John Lind had
been governor of Minnesota and had
nothing to gain by the nomination.

adopt the Roosevelt policy of getting rid of his
visitors, because the two men are constitutonally
different in at least respect. 1t must be said,
however, that the Roosevelt plan of receiving
guests has done good deal to save the tempers
of White House visitors and the time of Mr..
Taft.
AS everybody knows, addition was made
to, the White House offices some time ago. In
the Roosevelt days callers went into the cabinet
room and from there either were ushered into
the adjoining room, where the president sat,
or waited while Mr. Roosevelt came out and
made circuit of the cabinet room, speaking to
one caller after another and getting through with
his work quickly and yet without giving offense.
Now President Taft has circular room all
to himself, and while the visitors allowed the
two big outside, it is from these rooms
they find there way to the presidents presence,
being let in eight ten at time, and not one

took Office.
