Colonel had proved a tartar to Mf.

subtle trap by the chief counsel for
Mr. Barnes.
Nettled by the triumphant attitude
of the Colonel and his cohorts early
in the day. Mr. Ivins lost his equa
nimity and demanded the Colonel be
treated as "an ordinary witness "
The court said he was and would
be.
The conflict was precipitated when
Ivins touched on the removal of In
surance Commissioner Payn In 189!».
"Was not Mr. Payn removed?"
asked Ivins. .
"I would rather say he was got out
of office." said the Colonel.
“Did you not appoint his soeces-
aor ?"
Mr Roosevelt said he did. "But had

tude in 1898 and 1899 would have been

I chines,” said the witness.
® "I move that he stricken out,"
snapped Mr Ivins, losing his temper
for the first time
"You must let him finish hi* an
swers." said Bowers
"This witness must be treated is
any other witness," retorted Ivins
"Me must not make political speeches
to the Jury."
"Mr. Ivins," sternly said Justice An
drews. "this witness will be treated as
any other witness."
"I apologise, vour honor." said Ivins,
and proceeded.
The court ruled that any improper
part of Roosevelt s testimony could be
stricken out.
"I am asking a lot of these ques
tions Just to test your memory," said
Mr. Ivins.
The quiz then turned on the Payn
matter, which brought forth the fire
works
Mr. Roosevelt said he had enter
tained William Babies at his house,
but never met him alone. “I extended
my hospitality to Mr. Barnes in
Washington," he said.
Held Barnes Above Average
"And lr) Albany?"
"I believe so.”
"And to aYItr. Barnes'*"
"And to Mrs. Barnes," said the
t’olonel. repeating the question. "But
I never held a meeting with him
alone."
Mr. Roosevelt was asked why, if he
thought Mr. Barnes corrupt, he en
tertained him. advised with him and
consulted him.
"Because, Mr. Ivins " started the
Colonel.
"I insist this witness must answer
my questions ‘yes’ or no’ when pos
sible.” shouted Mr. Ivins.
"He can not answer yes or 'no' to
that," said Bowers
“I w'ant to tell the jury," said Roose-
\ elt.
"Yes, you are telling the Jury a lot
of things." retorted Ivins.
The court instructed Roosevelt to
answer "yes" or "no" when possible,
then amplify his answers.
The question was then repeated.
"I advised with Mr. Barnes," said
the Colonel, "because I found Barnes
above the average of ordinary politi
cal leaders."
"I thougiit his morality at least
above the ordinary political and busi
ness morality and believed he had it
in him to become a valuable leader in
the State I hoped to eliminate the
had in Mr. Barnes and develop the
good."
Barnes s
"Why did you
Barnes?”
"I found him a Dr. Jekyl. and Mr.
Hyde,” replied the Colonel. "I
wanted to save Dr. Jekyl and kill Mr.
Hyde. Mr. Barnes was only one of
hundreds of political men through
out the country in whom I was in
terested trying to bring out the most
there was in them—trying to make
them useful citizens."
"When did Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde
separate?” asked Ivins. "When did it
become necessary to sever the liga
ment uniting these Barnes Siamese
twins?"
"I’d not sav it was a severing of the
ligament," said the Colonel luughiqg.
"but rather a case of one absorbing
the other- Dr. Jekyl being swallowed
up by Mr. Hyde.”
Mr. Roosevelt admitted he twice
appointed Barnes to office and said he
entirely abandoned his missionary
work In 1911.
Mr. Ivins read from the autobio
graphy that any phrases such as "in
visible government,” "invisible em
pire,” etc.
"Is it not a fact,’ said Mr. Ivins,
"that you have used In your testimony
to-day ex&M phrases from your auto-
biogra phy ?”
"I do not remember."
Phrases Not Formulas.
"You mean you do not remember
what you have said this morning?"
“I mean I do not remember my
phraseology,” said Mr. Roosevelt.
"Please put your questions so I can
answer them, Mr. Ivins."
”1 am asking you—if I can put it
so you can answer it intelligently—
if you have not to-day phrased your
answers in the language of your au
tobiography?" said Mr. Ivins. "Is it
not a fact that you used certain
phrases until they became formulas?”
"No.”
"Why not?* asked Ivins.
"A formula is something you do
not believe and repeat by rote," said
the colonel. "These repeated phrases
of mine were not formulas bu things
I believe in absolutely and translate
into ai t Ion w henever 1 have oppor
tunity."
"Do you believe two and two make
four?" asked Mr. Ivins.
"I do."
"Is that not a formula?" retorted
Mr. Ivins.
“I do not know," Roosevelt answer
ed, with a grin.
Colonel Smiling at Start.
Colonel Roosevelt was recalled to
the stand for further cross-examina
tion when court reconvened. He was
smiling as he took his seat, but did
not glance in the direction of Mr.
Barnes.
The first questions put to the Colo
nel by Mr. Ivins dealt with the Al
bany Legislature while Roosevelt was
Governor.
"Who were the leaders in Albany
then?" asked Mr. Ivins.
"1 do not know," said the Colonel.
"Who was the chairman of the Fi
nance Committee and the Ways and
Meins Committee?"
"I remember Mr. Higgins (once
Governor) was chairman of the Fi
nance Committee."
"Who was the chairman of the
Wavs and Means Committee?"
"1 don’t remember."
"Shall 1 consult the records? asked
! Ivins.
"I do not need my memory re-
, freshed," said the Colonel with a
smile.
Do you not remember that Mr.
I Allde was that chairman?"
biography written by Colonel Roose
velt in 1913. and asked the Colonel
about certain references t<e Senator
Platt, B. B. Odell, P. B. Hill, Richard
Croker and William Barnes.
"I made no reference to Mr.
Barnes," was the answer.
"Then your opinion of Mr. Barnes
was not the same in 1913 as when |
you wrote the statement in 1914 of
which we complain?" asked Ivin*
"It w'as." said the witness, "but I
purposely refrained from saying any
thing malicious about Mr. Barnes. I
was not wTiting my autobiography to
appeal to the voters of New York
.State ”
"I do not want that," interposed
Mr Ivins.
"Let him finish his answer," said
Mr. Bowers.
"You asked the question,” said Jus
tice Andrews.
"He answered it," said Ivins.
Court Lets Him Finish.
"I did not finish my answer," de
clared the Colonel.
"Go ahead," said the court
"If my autobiography had been
written as a political document I
might have mentioned Mr. Barnes."
said the Colonel, facing the jury and
driving home each word. "But my
autobiography was written as a lit
erary work and was not an appeal to
the voters of New' York. Therefore, I
refrained purposely from attacking
Mr. Barries.”
The Interrogation then Jumped to
Mr. Roosevelt’s attack on "invisible
government" mentioned in his auto
biography. Parts of the autobiogra
phy were read. «
"Do you remember." asked Ivins,
"leaving the autobiography for a
while, when Charles F. Murphy w'as
the nominal Democratic leader in New
York? Was he a leader at all before
he became head of Tammany?"
"I would not say so, but I do not
remember much about Mr. Murphy
before that. I think Mr. Murphy hail
to d«» battle with Mf McCarreto, of
Brooklyn, before he could become
Democratic boss. There was also a
battle with William J. Connors, of
Buffalo, but 1 can not remember
which side he whs on."
Colonel Happy Man.
Colonel Roosevelt was the hap
piest man In .Syracuse to-day.
He told his friends that his case
had been clinched and that the props
had been knocked out from under the
complaint of Barnes.
The Colonel was particularly Jubi
lant over the outcome of the duel of
witness and counsel in which he had
engaged Thursday with William M.
Ivins, chief counsel for the plaintiff.
"Mr. Ivins is the best friend 1 have
in the world," said the Colonel to one
of his lawyers. When the remark
was repeated to Mr. Ivins he made no
comment, unless a grunt of scorn
could be taken for comment.
Colonel Roosevelt has grinned like
a happy boy ever since his testimony
of yesterday. Whatever may be
the opinion of the public, the Colonel
is satisfied he has scored heavily
against the man he accused as a cor
rupt boss—that he has "drawn first
blood.”
Grateful to Ivins.
His remark about Ivins being his
friend meant that he thanked the op
posing lawyer for laving the platform
that allowed the ex-President to set
forth his view's from the stand.
The throng that Hocked to the
Onondaga courthouse to-day hours
before they could get in showed that
the Colonel is the hero of the town.
The man who could knock the w'ar
from the front page of every news
paper. regardless of its politics, has
won the admiration of the people
here.
Roosevelt adherents to-day de
clared he had "come back" and that
William Barnes, the Colonel’s accuser
in this sensational lawsuit, has done
for Mr. Roosevelt what he never
could have done for himself.
On the other hand, Mr. Barnes and
his advisers appear confident the case
is just begun, they say.
"We are not through yet,” Mr.
Ivins said, "and it is not to be said
that Mr. Roosevelt has answered on
the tax proposition or for his close
association with Senator Platt. B. B.
Odell and the rest of that crowd.”
Politicians on Hand.
When the trial was resumed it w'as
hoped by both sides that the Colonel s
cross-examination would be finished
to-day. Tf it is, there will be no ses
sion of the court to-morrow and the
lawyers In the case will be the guests
of Judge W. S. Andrews on his farm
for the week-end.
This may not be a political trial, as
Mr. Ivins declared, and there has
been no important politics in the tes
timony, but the up-State politician
who can get to Syracuse is here and
nothing but politics is talked in the
courthouse corridors and the lobbies
of the hotels.
The tremendous interest of the peo
ple and the near riots for admission
to the courtroom before the session
opened indicated this would be an
other "Roosevelt day"—with the gal
lery, if not with the Jury.

was invested in unreleased feature
films."
Mr. Blackton said more than 11,-
000.000 people visit moving picture
theaters daily in this country. He
said that during 1913 40.000 miles of

Values
In order to give the
best values in clothes at
all times, there must be
a standard of merchan
dise. This standard can
only be maintained by
buying from factories
that are equipped to
make a certain grade of
clothes. This is the
basis on which we are
trading. This is the
foundation on which
we expect to grow to
larger proportions.
This is why with our
small expenses you can
save on each suit
bought here. •
