ROOSEVELT IS BETTER
RECOVERING FROM BULLET OF
ASSASSIN MORE SER
IOUs THAN FIRST THOUGHT

Theodore Roosevelt, the progressive
candidate for president, who was shot
in Milwaukee Monday evening by John
Schrank of New York, who stated that
he had followed the ex-president to
many places to commit the deed, is
getting along very nicely.
The wound is more serious than at
first thought, the bullet entering a lit
tie below the right nipple and fractur-
ing rib. The bullet has not been To-
Gated, and will not be taken out at
this time. The wound is healing nicely
and there is said to be no danger from
infection.
Naturally the Colonel's speaking
engagements have been cancelled, and
it is thought that he will not get into
the campaign again for some time at
least.
It is said that for three generations
there have been members of the
schrank family insane, although the
would-be murderer seems to be sane.
President Taft and Governor Will
son have sent messages CT regret, and
Mr.. Wilson has cancelled his speak
ing engagements after Saturday even
ing, except at Madison Square Garden,
Oct., 81, which had already been ar
ranged, he stating that he did not
wish to be the only presidential candi-
date speaking before the public.
