Colonel Roosevelt s dlrect eXamInd-
tion lasted from $3.50 until almost IL
clock. when a recess was taken.
After the recess the cross examina-
tion Of Colonel Roosevelt by Attorney
Horace A. Andrews of Cleveland began,
and was Disappointing to the audience
in the courtroom, inasmucb as it pro-
duced no fireworks. Colonel Roosevelt
not only held his own, but seized every
opportunity Of saying things that
strengthened his direct testimony and
undoubtedly produced as good an effect
on the jury as it seemed to do on the
people in the courtroom. The cross
examination lasted but twenty minutes.
More Strong Testimony.
The other witnesses examined during
the day were men of national promin.
ence, who have been intimates with
Colonel Roosevelt for years. and who
testified they had never seen him under
the influence of liquor, and that he
only drank champagne at state ban
auets, white wine TO the extent OF one
glass at formal dinners, and no alco'
holic liquors Of any kind at his own
table,
These witnesses were Jacob Rlls OF
New York, prominent as soclologlst
and reformer; DR.. Alexander Lambert,
famous authority on alcoholic dis
eases and physician to the Roosevelt
family DIR. P. NJ. Rixey, surgeon gem
eral of the United States navy, re-
tired, and personal physician TO Colonel
Roosevelt while the latter was presl"
dent. and II. S. ellison Gardner, a
Washington newspaper man who has
accompanied Mr.. Roosevelt on almost
all of his campaign trips.
The witnesses agreed, in the main,
but Jacob Riis, who In common with
the other witnesses, were excluded from
the courtroom, while Colonel Roosevelt
was on the stand, stoutly insisted that
he knew absolutely that Colonel Roose-
welt never tasted whisky or brandy and
that he would not believe any man who
said that he did.
Gardner Is Quizzed.
The cross-examinations Of the wit
nesses failed to bring ont much Of COM
fort to the defense. When Mr.. Gard
ner was on the stand Attorney An
drews asked:
''Were you at the dinner at the Ar
lington hotel in Washington given to
Joe Cannon at which Colonel Roosevelt,
then president Of the United States, was
present7'
"I attended dinner to Mr.. Can
non,'' testified Mr.. Gardner. "but it
was at the New Willard. There was
a reception to Speaker Cannon at the
Arlington, but I didn't go.'
''But you heard. Mr. Gardner in.
sisted Mr.. Andrews. ''it talked around
Washington, that the party at the Ar.
lington was quite gay and that Colonel
Roosevelt drank n great deal therei"
"I mover heard any such thing
declared Mr.. Gardner.
A telegram, received by Frank Har-
per, Colonel Roosevelt Is secretary was
shown to the lawyers of the defense
at this time and while not submitted
to the court, was given to the news.
paper men for publication. This tele-
gram had bearing on the reference
to the party to HUnc1e Joe MT the
Arlington, to which Mr. Andrews hnd
referred to in his cross examination

by the Railway Steel Spring company,

NJ. Shaw.
It was not contested. II. H. Porter
said regarding the move:
"The Chicago 6 Eastern Illinois
receiyership is entirely separate and
independent from that Of the ST. Louis
& San Francisco. There is no thought
Of foreclosure Of mortgages or any
thing Of that sort. The readjustment
is wholly stockholders matter, and
owing to the peculiar nature of the
relations between the G. & e. /. and
the Frisco separate receivership seems
to be the best method Of disassociating
the properties and restoring the C.

Of the Equitable Trust company of
New York, and Henry A. Vernet Of
London.
Cause of Troubles.
The primary cause Of the financial
troubles was a combination of misfor~
tunes, including rising costs Of opera
ton, food losses and stringency Of the
money market which made it impos-
sible TO raise funds to meet maturing
obligations. That these troubles over
whelmed the Frisco was owing to the
exacting guarantees made by the par.
ent company during recent years in
acquiring control of other railroads,
whereby it increased its mileage from
100 miles in 1896 TO 7499 in 1912
Tho earnings Of some Of the lines since
acquisition have fallen several million
dollars short of meeting obligations
which the st. Louis g. San Francisco
assumed
