MADE OVER 300 SPEECHES Number Does Not Include Those Made From Rear End of Train at Country Cross Roads. VISITED THIRTY-SEVEN STATES Took Exactly One Month to Swing Across Country After Start In Connecticut. (By United Press.) On board Roosevelt private car, homeward bound, Oct. 2.—With his voice so frazzled that it cracked at times, Colonel Roosevelt made the last of his speeches on his swing around the circle at Ashville, N. C. today. He did not spare himself work, however, because he looked to a day’s rest tomorrow at such seden- tary pleasures as wood-chopping and horseback riding when he reaches Oyster Bay. Roosevelt expressed himself today as greatly pleased with the receptions accorded him throughout his south- ern tour. He believes he hds blazed the path for the Progressive move- ment in the south. Up to the last the Bull Moose lead- er continued his attacks on the Dem- ocratic party and Governor Wilson. Raleigh, N. C., Oct. 2.—Theodore Roosevelt, erstwhile president and willing to try the job again, entered this city yesterday on the home- stretch of the most comprehensive campaigning tour ever undertaken by | a presidential candidate. ! By the time he reaches New York| tomorrow, the Bull Moose leader will have covered something over 9,000 miles, and have made 300 speeches to perhaps 10,000,000 citizens, in ad- vocacy of the progressive principles for which he is fighting. The 300 speeches do not count mere rear- end-of-the train talks, of which there were scores. It does not give an idea of the typically Roosevelt strenuosity of the trip, of an enthusisiasm that never waned, keen insight into local conditions, an alertness and versatil- ity that transformed what were about eight basic topies for speechmaking into almost new addresses in city af- ! ter city. Thirty-seven states have been traversed by the Bull Moose leader. One month age today he began his swing around the circle by an ex- cursion into Connecticut. Thence he | swung westward, zigzagging up and | down to the coast, and then east-| ward and through the south, return- ing along the Atlantic coast. The Colonel had a physician along with him, but he might just as well has dispensad with his services, and merely gargled his throat when it got tired from speaking, for he was in the same splendid trim today as when he left Oyster Bay—still sun- burned and vigorous in every move- ment. “What I'm anxious to do now,” said the Colonel today. “is to get back to Oyster Bay, play a few sets of tennis, take a ride or a walk, and then I'm ready again.” Throughout the trip the Colonel has worn just one suit of clothes. Indeed, his wardrobe—and his sim- plicity was reflected in the fact that he carried only one big kit bag and two suitcases—only contained the one business suit and a frock coat. That one gray suit was sadly worn and wrinkled and creased and dirty, as its wearer ought to have been af- ter such a trip, but the Colonel isn’t much on style. His black felt som- brero was almost equally marked with wear and travel. Here was the usual Rooseveltian program day by day: Arise at 7 o’clock. Shake hands with a crowd and make a two minute talk, perhaps in the middle of his breakfast at 8 o’clock. Talk polities with local Bull Moosers,, interspersed with perhaps a couple of set speeches. Grab luncheon at 1 o’clock. More speeches, and in between times, rest. (Rest, acocrding to the Colonel’s notion, consists of reading such books as the history of the Sec- ond Empire, the French Revolution, BENTON RI’MILLIN. Former Tennessee Governor, Who Is Again Democratic Nominee. or some of the French essayists—in their own language. Dinner, say about 7. More speeches, probably up to 11 o'clock, and then to bed. Of course, on such a varied trip as the Colonel Las taken the above pro- gram wasn’t always carired out. Gen- erally is was about twice as stren- uous. It should also be mentioned that the Colonel sandwiched in daily a personal letter to Mrs. Rosevelt, handled his regular mail, read the newspapers and mapped out addi- tional work, The Bull Moose regularly sprung about half a dozen stock jokes or “brighteners”, but they were sprung with just as much spontaneity yes- terday in the south as they were in Connecticut nearly a month ago. And they always fetched the crowd. One favorite was for the Colonel to shoo the little ones away from the rear of the train, and then remark confi- dentially to the crowd, in that squeaky falsetto the ex-president al- ways adopts when he is humorous: “You know, 1 don't want to lose any little Bull Mooses.” The “Abyssinian treatment story” was another of the Colonel’s favor- ites. It hinged on John D. Arch- bold’s complaint before the Clapp in- vestigating committee that “Darkest (Continued on last page). FOOTBALL WITH AKELEY. The Bemidji high school foot ball team will play Akeley Saturday af- ternoon instead of Thief River Falls as previously announced. The Thief River date has been tentatively post- poned for a week but definite ar- rangements have not yet been made by Coach Carson. The team will leave for Akeley at 6:30 a. m. over the Great Northern and will return at 8 p. m. Owing to the fact that Akeley is but forty miles from Be- midji a large number of students ex- pect to acompany the team. STUDENTS TO PUT ON PLAY. Students of the high school have selected Friday night, Nov. 1, as the date for the play which will be produced to raise money with which to pay off the Chippewa debt from last year. The 1912 class went about $100 behind on the Chippewa and the school will try to reduce this | debt by putting on the play. Several different sketches are being consid- ered but one has not vet been se- lected. PINCHOT CANNOT COME. Knute Roe has received word that Gifford Pinchot, chief forester under the Roosevlt administration, cannot come to Bemidji to speak in the in- terests of Roosevelt's candidacy for the presidency. Pinchot’s manager says that they have but three days in the state and will not be able to | come here, Mr. Roe says that there is a chance that Senator Beveridge DAY IS NAMED ( By United Press.) St. Paul, Oct. 2.—Frank A. Day was elected chairman of the execu- tive committee of the state central committee and Democratic state cam- paign manager by the committee be- fore it adjourned last night. After beating Dan W. Lawler of St. Paul, Democratic candidate for senator, on every - contention he fought for, his foes put F. A. Pike, a loyal supporter, on the executive committee. Lawler had claimed he was refused a man on the committee. After answering Lawler’s first at- tack by a decisive vote of forty to eleven, the committee also defeated a resolution calling on all members of the committee to support every that men who would not support the ticket through their sense of honor would not do so because of any reso- Ilution. The vote against the resolu- tion was almost unanimous: though strongly championed by Lawler ad- ‘herents. Just before the meeting adjourn- ed and while Austin was declaring that there was no room on the com- mittee for bolters. some man not a member of the committee shouted, “Who bolted James Gray two years ago. Instantly Lawler turned around and pointed his finger at D. Murphy, from Stillwater, and said “You are a coward.” “Take that back, I never said a word but no man can call me a cow- ard,” replied Murphy and started after Lawler. Lawler perceived his. mistake and apologized and the two men shook hands. ARREST MILK DEALERS Minneapolis, Oct. 2.—Warrants for the arrest of eight of the most important milk dealers in the twin cities, on charges of conspiring to raise the price of milk—a felony un- der the Minnesota anti-trust law of 1899—were issued yesterday on com- plaints sworn to by Thomas P. Ma- guire, general superintendent of the state’s detective service, 802-803 Lumber Exchange, co-operating with County Attorney James Robertson. Six dairy concerns operated by the men against whom complaints were made were also named in the war- rants. The issuance of the warrants fol- lowed a raise of one cent a quart in the price of milk, said to have been made today by all of the members of a reported milk dealers’ association, following a meeting of eight of the ten alleged members in the commit- tee room of the Produce exchange, Sixth street and Second avenue north Sunday. A dictagraph was used to gather the evidence concerning the alleged conspiracy to raise milk pric- es, acording to Maguire, who said that while the milk dealers discussed the matter for nearly an hour he and a court stenographer crouched in a retiring room opening directly off| the committee room and took a ver- batim report of the proceedings, in- cluding numerous references to the price raise and votes on the new prices. The transmitting end of the dicta- graph, Maguire said, was concealed behind a mop bucket which stood against one of the walls of the com- mittee room. The transcribed dicta- graph report was turned over to County Attorney Robertson. The in- dividuals and concerns for whom warrants were issued today were: C. A. Nelson, president Clover Leaf Dairy company, and reported president of .the new dealers, organ- ization. man on the ticket. C. J.

Milwaukee, Oct. 2.—David Bruce- Brown died at Trinity hospital at 3:10 Tuesday ‘afternon. ™~ - Running at a speed of nearly nine- ty miles an hour, the Fiat car bear- ing David Bruce-Brown and his me- chanician, Scudelari, overturned in a| ditch after rounding the “hair pin” | turn, the northwestern corner of the | Vanderbilt cup automobile race track. Physicians announced that both| Brown and his mechanician were suf- | fering from fractured skulls and that | operations would be necessary. Bruce-Brown had been running almost neck and neck with Teddy Tetzlaff, also in a Fiat, and after rounding the “hair pin” turn, Tetz- laff forged to the lead. Tetzlaff loked back after going a short dis- tance and was surprised to notice that Bruce-Brown’s car had disap- peared. Surmising that something was wrong he turned back and came upon Bruce-Brown’s crippled car in a ditch beside the track. Brown, his clothes torn and covered with dust, was walking about with & limp,while | Scudelari was lying in a ditch near the car. An automobile with two ph)’sicianfi was rushed to scene from the main |tent hospital at the grand stand, and the condition of the two men was found to be such that they were im-| mediately rushed to Trinity hospith Bruce-Brown was born in New York in 1887 and began racing in 1907, driving an Oldsmobile at thei Empire City track, winning his nov- ice race. In 1908 he ran away from school and acted as mechanician for the ‘late Emanuel Cedrino at Or- mond Beach, Fla. Here Bruce-Brown broke the one mile amateur straight- way record held by William K. Van- derbilt, Jr., the youngster’s time be- ing 33 2-5 seconds.

Beverly, Mass., Oct. 2.—Every hamlet and cross-roads in the coun- try may hear President Taft expound his politics and argue the issues of his campaign. They may hear him but not see him. Paramatta cottage rang with the sound of his voice yesterday after- noon. Persons in distant parts of the cottage were jarred by the vibration. In a few days, as it gains in strength and volume, his voice may be heard the country over. To an audience of one—only his military aide, Major Rhoads, being in the room with him—President Taft delivered a stentorian speech outlining the important campaign issues and arguing emphatically for his policies. He was talking into a phonograph recorder from which records will be madé and sent broadcast from coast to coast.

Marie Tarnovski Released From Pri- son After Serving Two Years of Eight Year Sentence. PLOTTED T0 KILL HUSBAND TUsed Lover As Tool In Order to Be Free to Marry a Third As She Had Planned. TRIAL TOOK SIX MONTHS Prosecution Showed She Remained in Vienna While Murder Wys Being Caried Out By Assassin. Rome, Oct. 2.— After having serv- ed less than half of her eight years prison sentence, the Countess Marie Tarnovski, often spoken of as the most beautiful and captivating queen of the great criminal adventuresses of history, has been pardoned by the Italian government. The announce- ment of the pardon has aroused much interest and not a little public eriti- ciSm of the action of the authorities in setting at liberty a woman who, in the language of Prof. Rossi of Ge- noa, the distinguished alienist and Dsychologist, is suffering from “a dia- bolical malady which makes her un- answerable for her acts, and who should be so confined as to prevent her from injuring others or herself.” For two years the woman has been confined in prison in Venice on a charge of murder. With her two lov- ers, a Moscow lawyer and a young Russian official, she was convicted in 1910 on a charge of successfully con- spiring to murder her husband,Count Paul Kamarovski, 1907. The charges were based on the accumulated evi- dence produced through an exhaus- tive investigation by the Austrian and Russian police, by the confes- sions of the lovers, Naumoff and Pri- lukoff, and even by the confession of the countess herself, which, however, she later denied and retracted. The Countess Tarnovski, despite her long career of intrigue and ad- venture, is now but little more than thirty years of age and is said to be as beautiful as ever. She is the daughter of a noble Russian family and was educated in a convent. ‘While still in her teens she eloped with Count Tarnovski, a wealthy man, who after their mariage treated her with great brutality. She grew to hate him and deceive him. One of her lovers, Borgevsky, was shot by her husband and died in her arms. Another, a Russian officer named Stahl, committed suicide, and it is alleged that he did so at her insiga- tion. Her brother-in-law, the young- er Tarnovski also committed suicide. In 1903 the Countess met Prilu- koff, a Moscow lawyer, who desert- ed his wife an dfamily, embezzled his clients’ money, and traveled through Europe with her. On their voyages they met Naumoff, a neuro- tic young man of twenty-one, who al- so came under her spell. Later she encountered Count Karmarovski, to whom she became betrothed. In the summer of 1907 the Coun- tess, according to her own account, became tired of her wanderings with her lovers, and began to think of marrying Count Karmarovski and settling down. Prilukoff, she assert- ed at her trial, suggested that mur- der was far preferable to matrimony. Then it was that the plot to insure the Count’s life and then kill him be- gan to be hatched. The first step was to induce him to insure his life in her favor for $100,000. The next step was the inflaming of Naumoff against Kamarovski and this was affected in a simple and in- genious-manner. A telegram was drafted, addressed to the Countess, and signed with Kamarovski's name. It contained the foulest insults against both the Countess and Nau- moff. This telegram was sent from Vienna to Venice, and telegraphed back to Vienna. There Prilukoff and the Countess caused it to be shown to Naumoff, and the latter, in a frenzy of rage, hurried to Ven- ice to tzke vengeance on the suppos- ed slanderer. Naumoff made his way to the Count’s villa early in the morning of Sept. 4, 1907. Brushing past the ‘maid, who opened the door, he strode into the Count’s bedroom. The lat- ter, awakened by his entry, cried out |in alarm. Naumoff, without a word, fired at him five times with a revol- wver. inflicting mortal wounds. Nau- FAMOUS COUNTESS
