THE RoosEvE1r PUzzLE.

Colonel Roosevelt is a mystery, q
problem and puzzle. Perhaps that
fs why he is so interesting. Just now
q great many people are wondering
what he will do in the coming cam
paign. Will he seek the republican
nomination? Will he seek the pro-
gresstve nomination? Which Of the
republican candidates. If any. will he
be willing to support? What progress
aive will he support II the result Of
the republican convention does not
please him? These are some Of the
questions which are being asked con-
csrning the former president, and the
answer, when there are any, are con-
1ioting.
Last week Roosevelt was 4 guest at
Gary dinner" given by the head
of the steel trust. and attended by a
number Of persons whom the colonel
has taught us to regard as malefactors
Of great wealth, all Of whom have
been rather conspicuous in politics.
Naturally, that was more than q mere
sse4al sathsrtng. Wa may depend up
ca It that. whatever else tho guests
discussed, they talked politics. It
would be contrary to nature for them
net te do %. But what they said no.
body outside Of tho charmed circle
knows. The dinner, however. was ac-
cepted as conclusive evidence by a
great many people that Roosevelt was
bent on capturing the republican
..Wa1.
But now comes the publication in 4
popular magazine OF . Roosevelt arti-
Gle In which the colonel does some
surprising things for man seeking
to harunonize factions. 1t is not sur
pTising that there is a fresh outbreak
Of my policies my plans" and
my ideas generally, ana the charge
that these things have all been stolen
by President Wilson. Roosevelt will
never cure himself Of the deluBion
that an idea on which he has once
set the stamp of his approval is his
personal property, with which others
aneddis st their peril. He cannot even
see that in this very assumption Of
originality he 10 not original. Other
people. long before him. have had
the same notions, among them Mr..
Bryan. who has charged Roosevelt
with the theft of the Bryan policies.
Neither is it surprising that the coll
onel should attack the present admin
istration for pretty much everything
that it has done or failed to do in
connection with the coumry's foreign
relations. That practice he has fol-
lowed pretty consistently. But why
should he, just at this time, hurl a
javelin at Taft? This he does when,
in denouncing the Mexican policy
that has been pursued, he says that
his remarks are intended to apply,
not only to the Wilson administration,
but to that Of Taft. Roosevelt is an
adroit politician. though. like other
politicians, he has blundered. He
knows that the republican party is not
likely to be haEmonizsd by abuse Of
Taft. What il the purpose of this at.
tack, then, must be classed as an
other Of the Roosevelt mysteries.

MRS. CARAVAN REPEATS
PREVIOUS TESTIMONY
Again Tcsti6es In Own Behalf On
Charge of killing Mrs. Bailey.
Denies Evidence of Mnid.

MiNEOLA. y. Y, May Mrs.
Florence Conltlin Carman testified in
her own defense to-day at her trial
on the charge of killing Mrs. Louise
d. Bailey in the office of her husband
Or. Edwin Carman, in Frceport, June
so last. Her testimony was almost
Identical with that 1T the. first trial
which ended in disagreement.
Mrs. Carman denied everything to
which Celia Coleman. her former negro
maid. has testified. She denied that she
ever had used a revolver. but admitted
there was a pistol in her room at the
time IF the shooting. y small auto
matte pistol was produced by her coun-
sci and placed in evidence. The bullet
that killed Mrs. Bailey was Of larger
caliber.
Only once did Mrs. Carman appear
confused on her DISCRIMINATION. and
that was when the district attorney
furnished an outline OF the Carman
house and asked her To point out which
window il was she raped on when
Mrs. Variance. a nurse. was in the
doctors office.
Which time?" asked Mrs. Carman.
You know which time. Mrs. Car
man. snapped tho attorney. Did YOU
go more than oncc?'
NO she replied, and then quickly
recovered her composure and said:
You asked me which window. Be
lieve me. If had done it tmcaninS
the shootinSD | wouldn't have gone to
the same window"
Mrs. Carman previously had repeated
testimony given at the, first trial that
on one occasion she had gone To the
window Of the doctors Office while
Mrs. Variance WAS there and that she
had raped on the window.
