LED BY WALL STREET
Reads and Answers Circular Sent Out
by Members of Tammany Hall Com
mittee and Says That Any Fear of
Himself or Candidate Stimson Is
Bsseless-Crowds Hear Him Speak.
by Associated Press)


SYRACUSE, y. Y. Oct. 25.-The
campaign grew iivelicr today as The
odore Roosevelt travelled about cen
trail New York state. Rain fell all
day long but at every place at which
Colonel Roosevelt stopped crowds q
citizens gathered to cheer him. Hun
dreds stood in the rain to hear his
outdoor speeches and every building
in which he spoke was jammed to the
doors.
In his speeches he dwelt particu-
larry on Rooseveltsm as an issue. PIE
told the people that some BUSINESS
amen of the state were afraid of cit.
He said that any fear of INN or Of
Henry l.. Stimson, Republican candi-
date Tor governor, was baselcss and
that the alarm had been raised by
Wall street.
Colonel Roosevelt also replied TO
John 4 Dix. Democratic candidate
for governor who said yesterday that
the colonel had misrepresented him
by saying that he had been connected
with the wall paper combine. The
colonel did not make the apology
which Mr. Dix demanded. lie insist
ed that MrsDix had not shown that
he was not connected with the trust
which the colonel declared Illegal.
Colonel Roosevelt spoke today a.,
Penn Yam. Canadaigua, Geneva. Wa
terloo. Seneca Falls and Auburn and
Syracuse.
Appeals 70 Business Men.
The speech tonight was in large
part an appeal to business men not
TO be alarmed at Rooseveltism.
He began by reading the circular
sent out over the names of Charles
F., Murphy and the other members Of
the Tammany Hall committee. appeal
ing for contributions TO dNeat the
Roosevelt policies"
1T is a naked appeal to the power
of the public" said Colonel Roosevelt,
"a naked appeal to the twin emotions
of fear and grief and frank admis-
sion that only by a large outlay of
money will il be possible TO beat Mr.
StimsOl. This appeal from Tammany
Hall is in substance precisely the ap-
peal which has been made by the
great fnanciers who desire TO obtain
or retain improper special privileses.
There has been a deliberate effort on
the part of these three men who are
crooked to mislead and brighten their
colleagues who are not crooked and,
especially. to rislead and brighten
the real business men by telling that
disaster impends if Stimson is c,ect-
ed governor. because SumsOn is close
" allied with me. and ]. for sooth,
am dangerous man and especially
dangerous to business.
influence Is Felt
Il do not think this appeal has had
as rutn influence as ] at one time
feared. but still it undoubtedly has
had a certain influence. A number
of honest business men have been
affected by the Statements of those
whom. even If they distrust. they look
up to as leaders in the business
world. or in consequence some OF
those honest business mel have
shown symptoms Of that specie OF
fright which makes men especially
