 ''I am deeply shocked" said Thomas | F. Ryan, "the country has lost a man
 who always fought for what he be-
 lieved to be right. but more than all
 he was a true American" John Mitchell, former head of the | United Mine Workers of America,
 now chairman of the New York state
 food commission, said the colOnels

 worked for human betterment-and
 his death deprived America of force
 which it had need in the solution of
 the readjustment problems growing
 out of the war"

 On the day before Christmas, when i Colonel Roosevelt left the hospital in
 New York, to spend the holiday in ! Oyster Bay, Miss Stricker. in speaking of his condition. said he was in slight ! pain at intervals. but apparently was
 far from being seriously i'll. On the J Sunday previous to his departure for i his home, he had dictated articles for 1 the Kansas City Star and other publi- cations from II a. m. until p. m. He ate we'll and slept like a child. | So marked was his improvement at . the hospital that Mrs. Roosevelt, who. at the beginning. remained with her | husband continuously. was importuned ! by him to rest She went to Oyster i Bay. returning two or three times a
 week to visit him and bring him table | delicacies of which he was especially fond.
 1 Two separate blood tests had been made at the hospital. one by Dr. Rich ards and the other by Dr. Hartwell. [ each of which confirmed the diagnosis of the other.

 Operation on Ear
 Colonel Rooseveit's last illness may be said to date from last February. On February 5, it was announced that he had been removed from his home in Oyster Bay to the Roosevelt hos pital in New York, following an oper' ation on one of his ears.

 President Poincare, when informed by the Associated Press of the death of Theodore Roosevelt, said:
 French President Affected.
 'I am very much affected by the report of President Rooseveit's death. It was so unexpected. After the president had left the hospital some days ago We thought that all danger had passed.
 Well do 1 remember the dignified letter which 1 received from MT. Roosevelt after the death of his son Quentin, in which he informed me that he was coming to France to visit the grave of his son. It is distress ing to me to think that poor Roose- welt will not have an opportunity to lay flowers on the grave of his heroic son.
 The whole heart of France goes ouJ to Mrs. Roosevelt in sympathy
 Friend of liberty, friend of France, Roosevelt has given, without counting sols and daughters. his energy that liberty may live. We are grateful to him. We wish to express to Mrs. Roosevelt our most sincere condol- ence"

 neral, and the supreme court took un- 1 precedented action in adjOurning with
 out the transaction of any business.
 Many Pay Tribute Formal tributes were paid Colonel
 Roosevelt by government officials,

 ficers. President Wilson was cabled | the news by the executive offices of | the White House. Many touching ! statements of personal grief were made by men and women who had ! been associated closely with the form CT president during his life in Wash ! ington. particularly the seven years of his residence in the White House and members of the diplomatic corps expressed the admiration which the peoples in foreign lands held for him
