STORY OF ULTIMATUM
DENIED BY ROOSEVELT
Former President Says He Did
Not Command Taft

OYSTER BAY, N. Y, Aug. 20.--The-
odore Roosevelt denied emphatically
today that he had sent an ultimatum
to President Taft demanding that the
president break with Vice President
Sherman.
Colonel Roosevelt's attention was
called to a report that Lloyd G. Girls
com, chairman of the New York Re
publican committee, was to go to the
summer White House next week Ito
carry the terms Of peace between Bev-
erly and Sagamore hill"
The report had it that Mr.. Sherman
was chiefly responsible for the action
of the state committee in refusing
to select Colonel Roosevelt as tempo
rary chairman of the New York state
Republican convention and in recon-
mending the vice president instead.
II have sent no ultimatum to Pres
ident Taft" Colonel Roosevelt said.
"The report is a tissue of falsehood
from beginning to end"
The colonel added that he had not
sent Mr.. Griscom or any one else to
Beverly on any mission. He made 1t
clear that he had no intention of do
ing so, and recognized no situation
which could call for such a step.

ARREST SUSPECT
IN STAGE HOLDUP
Charge William Day with Being
Partner in MogoIIon-SiIver
City Robbery
PRISONER SAYS is INNOCENT
Accused Bandit will Resist EX-
tradition by Officials of
New Mexico
PRISONER SAYS is INNOCENT
ASSOCIATED Press)

GLOBE, Ariz., Aug. 20.-Accused of
being a partner in the holdup of the
Mogollon- Silver City stage two weeks
ago in which Jose Dominguez, the
stage driver, was killed and a large
quantity of silver bullion was stolen,
William Day was arrested at Miami,
near this city, today by Under Sheriff
Frank Haynes.
Day, aged 80, of medium build, dark
compleXioned and marked with small
pox, admits that he is the man for
whom the authorities of New Mexico
are looking, but protests his Innocence
of the crime. He even admits, so Of
ficers claim, to have been at Mogol-
lon at the time of the holdup.
Arrest was consummated after tele-
graphic advices were received from
Fred Fornoff, captain of mounted po-
lice of New Mexico, telling of Days
presence here. He was arrested while
playing cards in saloon and offered
no resistance.
According to the authorities, Mex
lean woman formerly employed in a
resort at Mogollon identified Day as
having been at that place at the time
of the holdup. The woman, who was
aboard the stage when held up a few
days before the robbery which resulted
in the murder of DomingueZ, claims
the perpetrator of the first holdup re-
sembled Day as to height and build,
but as he was masked at the time
she Is unable to identify him posi-
lively.
AS the same bandits are thought to
have perpetrated both holdups, today's S
capture is regarded as important and
Day will be taken to New Mexico at
once. He has stated II the authorities
will agree to give him a hearing be-
fore a magistrate in the district where
the robbery was committed he VIII
make no defense, but If the hearing is
to be held elsewhere he will fight eX-
tradition with every dollar he pos
sesses.
When arrested Day had a small
amount of money and was wearing a
heavy gold ring with ALASKA" en-
graved on 1t. He claims to have plenty
of funds at his command.
Lieutenant Collier Of the New Mexico
mounted police arrived tonight to take
charge of Day.
According to Collier, a woman in FL
Paso whom Day intended to marry
has made statements strongly impli-
eating him in the robbery and
murder.

KNOCKOUT DROPS PROVE
FATAL TO TWO TAIL0RS
Police Believe Men Victims of
HoIdups

NEW YORK, Aug. 2O-Two tailors
are dying in the Harlem hospital here
today from the effects of knockout
drops. They were found lying uncon-
scious and apparently dead on the
platform of an uptown al" station
The police believe that they were the
victims of holdup men, who, after
rihing their victims pockets, dragged
them to the elavated station with the
intention of placing their supposedly
dead bodies on the~tracks.
1t is. the opinion of the police that
the assailants were frightened away
before accomplishing their purpose.
The hospital surgeons have been un-
able to revive either of the victims
sufficiently to get coherent story
as to where they had been or what
happened.
