"this witness be treated as any or

tn-day’s sharp encounters that the
Colonel hid proved a tartar to Mr.
Ivin? and was not being led into any
subtle trap by tl.e chief counsel for
Mr. Barnes.
Nettled by the triumphant attitude
of the Colonel and hla cohorts early
:n the day. Mr. Ivins lost his equa
nimity and demanded the Colonel lie
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 l$9ii.
"Was not Mr. Payn removed?”
asked Ivins.
"I would rather say he was got out
of offl • said the Colonel.
“Did you not appoint his succes
sor ?"
Mr Roosevelt said he did. "But had
I known all conditions then my atti
tude in 1898 and 1899 would have been
the same as it is now," snapped the
Colonel.
Questioner Nettled.
“I did not ask that,” said Mr. Ivins.

chine*,” said the witness.
"I move that be stricken out,”
snapped Mr. Ivins, losing his temper
for the first time
"You must let him finish his an
swers.” said Bowers.
"This witness must be treated as
any other witness,” retorted Ivins, j
"He 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 apologize, your honor,” said Ivins,
and proceeded.
The court ruled # that any improper
part of Roosevelt’s testimony could he
stricken out
”1 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 Baines at his house,
but never met him alone. ”1 extended
my hospitality to Mr. Barnes in
Washington,’’ he said.
Held Barnes Above Average.
“And in Albany?”
"I believe so.”
"And to Mrs. Barnes?”
"And to Mrs. Barnes,' said the
Colonel, 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
consylted 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 want to tell the jury,” said Roose
velt.
"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-
a! leaders.”
”1 thought 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
tbe State I hoped to eliminate the
bad in Mr Barnes and develop the
g< od.“.
Barnes a Jekyl-Hyde.
“Why did you want to reform Mr.
Barnes?”
“I found him a Dr. Jekyl and Mr.
Hyde,” replied the Colonel. ”1
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--trylng to make
them useful citizens.”
“When did Dr. Jekyl and Mr Hvde
separate?” asked Ivins. “When did it
become necessary to sever the liga
ment uniting these Barnes Siamese
twins?”
"I’d not say it was a severing of the
ligament." said the Colonel laughing,
"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 fart,” said Mr. Ivina,
"that you have used in your testimony
to-day exa-t phrases from your auto
biography ?”
*T do not remember.”
Phrases Not Formulas.
"You mean you do not remember
what you have said this morning?”
“I mean 1 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 irt 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 action whenever I have oppor
tunity.”
"Do you believe two and two make
four?" asked Mr. Ivins.
"I do.”
"Is that not a formula?" retorted
Mr. Ivins
"1 do not know,” Roosevelt answer
ed, with a grin.
Colonel Smiling at Start.
Colonel Roosevelt was recalled to
the stand for further crops-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 question* 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 nut 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
Ways and Means Committee?”
”1 don’t remember.”
1 "Shall I consult the records?" asked
| Ivins.
"I do not need my memory re
freshed,” said the Colonel with a
j smile.
"Do you not remember that Mr.
Allds was that chairman?”
“No.”
"Did you veto any appropriation
bills prepared by these committees?"
Mr Roosevelt did not remember,
but paid the records would show.
"Who was the Democratic leader in
the Stale at that time?” asked Mr.
Ivins
Goes Into Autobiography.
"The Democratic leadership was
held in commission Mr David B
Hill was the up-State leader, with
Richard Croker as leader in New
York City, Croker’s power rapidly
growing at the expense of Hill,” an
swered the Colonei.
"What wag the standing of Mr.
Hill?”
"He was not so influential as Mr.
Platt and Mr. Odell,” said Mr. Roose
velt.
biography written by Colonel Roose
velt in 1913, and asked the Colonel
about certain references to Senator I
Platt, B. B. Odell, D B. Hill, Richard I
Croker and William Barnes.
“I made no reference to Mr.
Barnes," vraa the answer
"Then your opinion of Mr Barnea
was not the same in 1913 as when
you wrote the statement tn 1914 of
which we complain?” asked Tvlni.
"It was,” said the witness, "but I
purposely refrained from saving any
thing malicious about Mr. Barnes. I
was not writing 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 Andrew s.
"He answered it,” said Ivin*.
Court Lett Him Finish.
”1 did not. finish my answer,” de
clared the Colonel.
Go ahead," said the court.
“If my autobiography had been
w'ritten as a political document T
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. Barnes.”
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 was
the nominal Democratic leader in New
York? Was he a leader at all before
he became head of Tammany?”
”1 would not say so, hut I do not
remember much about Mr Murphy
before that I think Mr. Murphy had
to do battle with Mr. McC&rren, of
Brooklyn, before he could become
Democratic boss There was also a
battle with William J. Connors, of
Buffalo, but I ran not remember
which side he wan on.”
Colonel Happy Man
Colonel Roosevelt was the hap
piest man in Syracuse to-day.
lie 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 couneel in which he had
engaged Thursday with William M.
Ivins, chief counsel for the plaintiff.
"Mr. Ivins is the best friend I 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 laying the platform
that allowed the ex-President to set
forth his view's from the stand
The throng that flocked 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 war
from the front page of every news
paper. regardless of its politics, has
w-on 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 w'ith Senator Platt, B. B.
Odeli and the rest of that crowd.”
Politicians on Hand.
When the trial was resumed it was
hoped by both sides that the Colonel’s
cross-examination would be finished
to-day. If it is. there will be no ses
sion of the court to-morrow and the
lawyers in the case will he 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.

what happened in Savannah to bring

Savannah, with Macon and Americus,

there was little revenue from the harbor
