meEt conditions and tenement. made
goods. and his settlement OF the an.
thracite coal strike. when president.
He told of conditions In New York.
which may have influenced Col.
Roosevelt's stand in favor OF the re.
call of judicial decisions. He said in
part:
Mr.. Taft has said he finds very
little In our platform that is possible
of definition. can define the whole
of that platform in a dozen words
IL puts human rights before property
rights where the two conflict. II puts
men first. not money.
There are four kinds OF people who
are opposing Theodore Roosevelt
First. there are the irresponsible
cranks; II Is usele to argue with
them. Second, there are the crooks:
they know that Roosevelt shows them
no quarter. Third, there are the ones
on top, wo are comfortable: they Nonyt
understand Roosevelt because they
don't know what Is going on down
below. Fourth, there are the people
who don't know the man Roosevelt
they are the victims OF vicious ant
scan6alous newspapers"
Mr.. Riis said that never before or
since Mr.. Roosevelt's term have chill
dren come to the Mulberry-st. head
quarters to lay their troubles before
the police commissioner and ask for

ARREST THREE MEN
FOR WOMAN'S DEATH

BRIDGEPORT, Conn. Oct. 23.-The
finding OF the card of Mrs. Alice Phil
lips Aldrich, head of the Chicago Law
and Order league, and the chief figure
in the prosecution of Jack Johnson,
the Negro prize fighter in Chicago, for
his abduction of Lucille Cameron. in
the pocketbook OF Rose Bunnis, mys-
teriously slain on the highway last
night, stirred the police to renewed
activity In the case today.
The three men who were arrested
after a cross-country chase by posse
gave their names as Sames Mattio,
Frank Priscilla and Joe B0wnoniur.
The other two men who we're in a
taxicab in which the woman was
taken fro mStratford, are still at
large, but good descriptions of them
are in the hands of the police. IL is
supposed they fed to New York, and
the police OF that city have been
asked to watch for the fugitives.
