Warm Applause.

Eagerly Read by Crowds
Arguments Convince
Hearers.
rBy Gable to The Tribune. !

Paris. April 23.-Amid the cheers Of
several thousands of students and sight
seers. Mr.. Roosevelt left the Sorbonne
delivering his speech on the duties OF
citizens of republics. which lasted an
hour and three-quarters. Mr.. Roosevelt
was frequently interrupted by bursts of
enthusiastic cheers and clapping of
hands He often paused and repeated in
French certain passages of his address.
The parts of the speech which .were
greeted with most applause by the audi
ence, nearly half of which was composed
Of women. were his vigorous denunciation
OF persecution of every description. his
championship of the rights of minorities
to unmolested expressions of opinion, his
declaration that purely financial inter
ests should give way to humanitarian
interests whenever the two came into
conflict, his eulogium of patriotism as
against internationalism and his stirring
appeal to all able bodied men and women
to do all in their power TO keep up the
steady increase OF the birth rate Of the
nation
Mr.. Roosevelts entire speech appears
in French, accentuated by display head
lines, i'm all the evening newspapers, and
is being eagerly read H. the streets and
cafes. 1t makes deep and highly
favorable impression on the boulevards
and with the masses of the people. The
rival candidates are busy tonight pre-
pairing extracts from it for use in their
posters and proclamations for to-mOr-
rows elections
Vice Rector Lizard, at the reception
given tonight by the faculty of The
University of Paris. where Mr.. Roose-
welt was enthusiastically congratulated,
said that he and his colleagues were
greatly struck with the absolute and
astounding conviction with which Mr..
Roosevelt spoke and which he succeeded

Points Emphasized in French.

Several times he interjected Otserva-
lions i'm French. and after he had defines
his attitude on the subject of human
rights and property rights, he repeated
this in French. saving that ii constituted
the crux of what he had To say, and that
he desired every one to understand him.
IIis words in this connection were:
NV position as regards the moneyed
interests can be put in a few words. In
every civilized society property rights
must be carefully safeguarded. OrdInar-
ilv. and in the great ma jority of cases,
human riqhts and property rights are
fundamentally and in the long run iden-
teal; but when It clearly appears that
there is real conflict between them,
human riuhts must have the upper hand,
for property belongs TO man and not ma
20 property.

that he considered republican institutions
