vosse was killed Sept. %, while en-

Col. Roosevelt in his luncheon speech
al Chicago said that in 1872, when Ger
many proposed temporary occupation
OF Venezuela, he sent for the German
ambassador and told him that this Ven
ezuela business had been going on long
enough and l cannot afford to let it get
to a point where it Will cause trouble for
this country
He asked the ambassador what Germa-
ny meant by temporary occupation and
on the ambassador replying that he did
not feel at liberty to discuss such an i'm
portant question he delivered the follow
ing ultimatum: Tell your government
that IN 10 days II must arbitrate the mat
ter or will send Dewey down there. The
German ambassador. according to Col.
Roosevelt, said he could not send such a
message, saying he did not think the
President knew what II would mean.
President Roosevelt replied that if it
meant war Germany had chosen the one
spot where she could not fight the United
States. The President then ordered Ad-
miral Dewey to be ready TO sail on an
hours notice.
The ambassador again visited President
Roosevelt a week later, and said he had
not dared send the message, and the
President told him that he had ordered
Dewey to sail within IS hours. The am
bassador said this would be an awful
thing for the United States. but Presi-

moro awful for Germany. Within SO
