Taft's speech at Baltimore, last night
the Colonel asserts that Mr.. Taft
knew he was making an untrue
statement when he said the former

the President in regard to the "Har-

cabinet meeting and in private con-
versation with him the President
repeatedly and emphatically ap-
proved the course actually taken"
Col Roosevelt had read President
Taft's Baltimore speech carefully,

care, writing it out with pencil,
instead of debating to his secre-
tary. He would make no further
statement. The Colonel returned
this morning from his Maryland
tour He said he expected to remail
in oyster Bay week before start
