TEDDY 0N STAND
 FOR FIVE HOURS Trying To Prove Statements Made By Him In Last Campaign
 Against Barnes.

SYRACUSE, N. Y. April 22.-For five hours yesterday ex-President Theodore Roosevelt was on the stand in an effort to prove the libelous statements made by him during the last campaign against Republican State Chairman Barnes, of Albany. Roosevelt went into the history of political deals which he had had with Barnes when the two were friendly and tried to show that the Republi, can leader was crook.
 Roosevelt was in a good humor all through the examination and seemed to enjoy himself telling of the mis- deeds of the Republican party. which had so signally honored him, and de- nounced the methods which had made possible his own election to the pres idency, and which were the same methods he used to force the nami- nation of ex-President Taft upon the Republicans in 1908.
 Opinion here is that unless Roose- velt can bolster up his case consid erably, he is in for judgment, as so far he has failed to prove the state- ments made by him. Attorneys for Barnes say they will win a verdict.
