Ho said in the morning that he did nov feel like sleeping, but the sw: of the car tired him and he slept sev- eral hours. The hardships of the jour- ney were increased by several severe Jolts caused by the imperfeot action of a brake on the colonel's car, and once or twice the train came to such an abrupt halt that the colonel was tossed about in his bed.

Dr, Alexander Lambert of New Yorik, ‘who, with Dr. Scurry Terrell of Dallas, Texas, is caring for Colonel Roosevelt, sald that the wound had bled some during the day, but that the bleeding was merely the result of the draining| ¢o1q hi; of the wound, and was an indication mfl“h .Tu?:n." of the healing process. Bulleting were issued by the physiciang from time to|eq whe; time during the day, but they merely reported that the colonel was easlly and that his condition changed. Aided by the X-ray exam- ination made yesterday, Dr. Lambert was able to determine the position of the bullet by an external examination today. He placed a finger on the pre- cise spet, and Colonel Roosevelt show- ed him that he was right, for he said: | from the financial account books of “That's mighty sore there.” ¢ Simple Matter to Remove Bullet. “The bullet is imbedded in the major pectoral muscle,” said Dr. Lambertf, “and as the X-ray photograph showed, #s close to the fourth rib on the right side.

London, Oct. 21.—The war news is still the story of comparatively unin- teresting small engagements involved in manoeuvring fof position while the Turkish and Balkan forces are assem- bling and preparing for big events. Turkey Not Fully Prepared. When the allied states declared war it may be assumed that Turkey had by no means concentrated her troops. Moreover, Turkey was still hoping to! detach Greece from the confederation Her failure to do this undoubtedly necessitated some change in the strate- gic plans, and she still needed time to transport her troops to the required positions; hence the falling back of the small Turkish garrisons from numer- ous frontier posts is of no great sig- nificance.

The testimony of Mr, Per- | kins bristled with such expressions as “unmitigated lies,” “absolutely false,” “totally unfair,” and “mere hot air. Mr. Perkins accounted to the com- mittee for $123,000,, which, he said, he spent in the pre-convention cam- paign for Colonel Roosevelt. “That was absolutely all of my con- tribution,” he declared emphatically. Mr. Perkins grew indignant when !} he was questioned as to any relation his activities in connection with the 1904 campaign might have had to the withholding the suit against the Har- vester company planned by the de-! partment of justice in 1907. He de- clared that for the government to have begun the action at that time would have been “totally unfair,” be- cause the bureau of corporations was then investigating the company, that he went to see President Roosevelt, | and that the latter after investigating, | ordered the suit delayed. In conclus- | ion, Mr. Perkins declared that he had never asked a favor of any government official aand that he was not ia poli- to secure business favors.

Parker in 1904. Of this sum Mr. Ryan said he gave $350,000 after he was convinced that Mr. Parker was defeated, in order to save the demo- cratic organization.

Beverly, Mass, Oct. 21.—gWhite House + officials tonight made ;:rbflc a ):tt;’ from President Taft to John Wana- maker of Philadelphia, dealing with some of the jesues of the campaign and thanking Mr. Wanamaker in his own behalf and on behalf of the people of the nation for the “splendid work” he has dome. The president’s letter dealt alimost éxclusively with the tariff and prosperity, which he declared was largely due to protection. Vote for Bull Meose is Vote for Dem- ocrats. “There %are certain facts which stand out so prominently in this campaign that T cannot conceive how a majority . of our voters can fail to apprehend them,” said the president. “They are that a vote cast for the third party ia a vote cast for the democratic tioker, and th; voet cast for the democratia ticket is a vote cast for economic ex- perimentation, which under the most favorable circumstances would . mean lack of business confidence, calling of loans, a stringency of the money ma=- ket, the suspension of manufacturing, the destruction of the market for farm products because the people had ne money to buy them, and untold suffer- i;:g"for the wage earner and his fame V. Text of the Letter. The letter reads in part as follows. “My Dear Mr. Wanamaker: T want to thank you for the splendid work vou are doing for the success of the republican party ‘in the appromchi election. T thank you not for myigfi alone, but for the people ut large who have so much to lose, so little to gain, from a change of administration, who will indedd suffer if a democratic pres- ident and a democratic congress secure the opportunity to make good the'r platform pledges, and an exitra sessicm of congress is called next March te change the tariff from a protective to a revenue basis, Wiping Out of Industries. “Wholly apart from the ve merits of the protective iand the tarff for revenue policies, It must be obvious ‘o thinking men that so ical a change cannot be effected t o prefiod of ml,d’j:(;tlma:lt, t.h:m out of numerous stries wl because they are protected, M pay good wages to thousands of em- ployes.

How would fare the wage earner wh was thrown out of employment for year or mgre, and who in many in- stances would be compelled to learn a new trade? Industries Grow Under Protection. “It is true that most of our wage earners have for some time been mak- ing good wages, but many of them suf- fered in the panic of 1907, and I doubt if more than a comparatively few could nndergo a period of & year's en- forced idleness without great hardship even actual distress.

And so, Mr. “As a protectioniet, T can see no ben- efit to be gained from such a changs, even when the readjustment is com- pleted. For sixty vears, under the pro- tective policy, our industries have grown at a pace which has astounded the world.
