In the Feeling That Middle
West is Loyal to Him
ROOSEVELT ON HIS WAY
He Spent a Short Time in Chicago To-
day and Then Slipped Quietly
Out of Town to Garry the
War into Ohio.

Chicago, Nov 5.--Theodore Roosevelt,
wearied by yesterdays campaigning in
Iowa, sought quiet on his arrival here
to-day. He left the train at a suburb,
Englewood, and drove about in an auto
for an hour, departing then to Toledo,
| from where he went to Cleveland by a
special train. The crowd, gathered at
the central station here to cheer him,
were disappointed
Des Moines, la, Nov 5.-Through
snow, sleet, rain and biting cold, Theo-
dore Roosevelt campaigned over Iowa
yesterday in behalf of the Republican
ticket. His reception was distinctly cor
dial Persons came through the slush in
crowds to see him and hear him speak in
behalf of Charles Grilke Of Davenport,
Republican candidate for Congress.
They cheered him with as much enthu-
siasm as could be mustered on such a
day.
Colonel Roosevelt heard last month
that he was being criticised in this state
by persons who believed he espoused one
set of doctrines in the West and another
in the East, but he found a hearty well
come awaiting him when he came here,
The colonel urged the people of Iowa to
support Mr.. Grilke as a man who stood
with the progressive leaders of the Re-
publican party, and in his speech here
last night he indorsed Governor Carroll
and the state ticket and put in good
word for Senator Cummins. He did not
attempt to 90 into local politics, but
confined himself largely TO appeals for
support OF the general principles which
he said the Republican party as a whole
represented Last evening he addressed
several thousand members Of the Iowa
State Teachers association on education
and good citizenship, before speaking in
the campaign rally.
The reception of Colonel Roosevelt in
Dcs Moines was the most striking Of
the day At the time of his arrival here,
the streets were covered with slush, and
| the air was damp and cold, although the
worst of the storm had passed. Despite
the unfayorable conditions, the down
town streets were lined with crowds,
which cheered constantly and kept the
colonel on his feet, bowing and waiYing

escorted by a troop OF cavalry.
Colonel Roosevelt was taken at once
to the University Church OF Christ,
where he spoke TO more than 1000 high
school pupils.
He told the pupils that he was going
to make speech some time on the
"Inyaluabe Use OF Useless Information. "
He said that during his life he had accu.
mulated an enormous amount of in

great value He urged the boys and
girls to read good books and plenty Of

Of their education depended more upon
what they put into their work than
what their teachers put into them.

AMES ASKS LODGE
TO GET OUT OF OFFICE
Peculiar Document Sent Out Last Night
By Man Who Wishes to Take
Place Of Senior Senator In
Massachusetts,.

Lowell, Mass, Nov. 5,--In an open
letter addressed to L. S. Senator Henry
Cabot Lodge, Congressman Butler Ames
of Lowell Republican representative
frcm the fifth Massachusetts, district
last night called upon the senator in an
open letter to pledge himself not to be
a candidate for reelection in the interest
Of the Republican state ticket.
The letter of Congressman Ames, who
is a candidate to succeed Senator Lodge
is in part as follows;
Three years ago Massachusetts, was
Republican by 100000 majority; last
year our governor and lieutenant gov
ernor pulled through with a scant TO-
600 votes, while the rest Of the state
ticket held nearer to the normal ma,
jorities.
The reelection, not only of our gov
ernor, but Of the whole state ticket, is
in great jeopardy, owing to the opposi-
tion to the United States Senate, and
your continued control of the party's
machinery.
"And in order that our governor and
ell the state ticket may be saved from
impending defeat, / suggest in a spirit
Of unselfshness and with the remem-
brance of twenty-four years Of public
service to your party, you remove this
issue by at once publicly pledging
the voters Of Massachusetts, that you
will not be a candidate for reelection
to the United States Senate THIS com
ing January. | hope you will believe
that the suggestion as a logical corollary
TO the above mentioned facts is not
actuated by selfish motives on my part,
but is prompted by an earnest desire to
save our governor and the Republican
party from threatened defeat.

brought in, pale and trembling, though
he walked firmly. He conferred with
his attorney over the argument of the

there was little chance of the court Of
appeals ordering a new trial unless glar-
ing errors in the previous trial were
shown. Crippen's attorney, Tobin, then
proceeded to argue for the new trial,
He declared that the jurors were not
properly isolated at the previous trial,
but that plea was oyerruled.
Then Attorney Tobin alleged that the
prosecution introduced testimony at inn
proper times. and he declared that the
body which was found in Dr. Crippen's
cellar was not sufficiently identified as
that of Mrs Crippen. Moreover, Mr.
Tobin declared that if the body was
identified as that Of Mrs. Crippen it had
not proved that a murder had been com
ntted. After hearing the argument Of

missed the appeal Dr.. Crippen's execu.
