INDIANA'S GREETING.

South Bend. Ind, Aug. 25-TheOdOre Roosevelt travelled across ohio and In diana today and was greeted every where by enthusiastic crowds, to whom he talked of honesty and corruption.
 He expressed his belief on questions that concern the public in more vigorous fashion than he has done heretofore since his re- turn from Africa. The crowds that greeted him today were larger than those which turned out to see him during his trip across New York state. and they were so insistent in their demands to see him and hear him that he responded in every instance.
 From the time Colonel Roosevelt reached Buffalo at 625 this morning until after he made his last speech of the day, he kept on the move. When not making speeches or shaking hands he was talking with visitors, dozens of whom rode for a time on his car.
 He said he was not talking politics and refused to say word on the New York situation. Even the news that the delegates from Orleans county tc the state convention had been instruct ed to vote for him for temporary chairman of the convention brought forth no comment. The colonel mere ly smiled.
