Ithaca, y. Y, Oct. 21.-There is
much talk here today of the attack
on Colonel Roosevelt by Professor
Woodruff of Cornell University at a
political rally over which he presid-
ed. He called the colonel such names
as liar" and 'unmitigated liar" Dur
ing his speech Woodruff was cheered,
and Kisses alternately and the house
was thrown into an uproar.
Professor Woodruff began by reop-
ening the Bellamy Storer episode
which Colonel Roosevelt only recent
ly declared was closed. He charged
that when the colonel denied sending
Bellamy Storer to the vatican he was
IAN unmitigated liar" and there were
letters in his possession, he said, to
bear him out
The uproar had barely suoside
when the professor took up his :ud-
gels again. Roosevelt was twice a
liar, he said. when he denied that
the late E. H. Hartman had SUBJ
scribed to a corruption fund to be
used for Roosevelts election to the
presidency. He closed with a quo
tation from the Italian historian OF
Rome, Ferrero, translated from Clo-
dius to whom 1t was originally appli-
ed by the writer. to Roosevelt. The
speaker was careful to specify that
he meant to imply no comparison
between the private lives OF Clodius
and Roosevelt. The quotation fol-
lows:
''The youngest recruit in the ranks
OF the proletariat who knew no scru-
pies, and combined the violence of
the demagogue with the aristocrat.
was prepared to assert his claim to
dominate the community-not so
much by his intellect-which was in
deed. no way remarkable, but by the
one quality in which he outshone all
his rivals-by his uncomfortable au-
dacitY"
