ROOSEVELT IS WILLING
TO Be WELCOMED HOME
Agrees to Reception, National
in Scope-Taft Will Prob
ably Take Big Part.

A reception national in scope, upon
his return to his native land, is agreed
to by Col. Theodore Roosevelt, in q cable
gram dated at Mombasa, whose contents
were today communicated to President
Taft by John A. Stewart of New York.
The former President is expected to
land in New York between June ID and
Il. The New York Republican Club Will
have charge of the reception.
The message WAS sent to Mr.. Stewart,
a close friend of Mr.. Roosevelt and head
Of the League of Republican Clubs of
New York.
1t is significant that Mr.. Taft was the
first man in the country to be con -ulted
about the message asking Mr.. Roosevelt
to permit a national reception Of we come,
and that he was the first to be informed
of the receipt of the cablegram.
Mr.. Stewart is to call upon President
Taft at noon tomorrow and consult him as
to the arrangements for the recel tion.
It is practically certain that PresidSlt IT
Taft will be asked to head the recepIiOn
committee and will be the first man to
greet the ex-President either on board his
ship or as he steps from the vessel on
American soil.
There is every evidence that the home
coming to the ex-Pres dent, demonstra-
ton of national confidence and honor, will
serve as great rally for the republican
party.
After Mr.. Roosevelt gets to Europe,
where he will spend q month or more
before coming home. he will be thorough
ly informed as to existing conditions, in
cluding the back-from-Elba movement, the
high cost of living cry, the regular ana
InSurgent situation in the House, the at
titude of the progressives of the Senate.
the Ballinger- -Pinchot disturbance and the
political outlook for the republicans. With
this mass Of information there is no
question that the speech of the ex-Presi-
dent will be a whooping harmony and
unity talk, designed to rally the repub-
licans in all directions, at the same time
full of praise of President Taft and his
administration.
