He says he does not want his family to live at a Hotel in Chicago when they have their beautiful home at Oyster Bay awaiting them at the most invigorating season of the year. Already the dominant and insistent Colonel is bombarding his physi- | cians with demands that they allow him to start back to New York or at | wand | least take him out in the open air, but the doctors are firm in their that the Colonel must remain quiet for ten days or until after the period i in| which blood poisoning may develop has expired.

Rooseveh. NEW YORK MOOSERS SEND FLOWERS. George W. Perkins, on behalf of the Progressives of New York, to-day rent to the Colonel's room a magnificent vase of roses. Mrs. Roosevelt to-day received from Mrs. Wilson the following message: “Iam shocked at the news and express my eympathy with you in your anxiety and distress. Mr, Wilson and I await the latest news with great solicitude, (Signed) Mrs, WOODROW WILSON.” A lengthy cablegram was received to-day from King Victor Emmanuel of Italy, but has not been translated. The following cable was received from Crown Prince Frederick of Ger- many and the Crown Princess: “Very anxious abolit your health. Hope you will soon recove! Among the early mossages received was one from A. Fallieres, President of France. It follows: “L congratulate you most sincerely as having most happily escaped from the horrible attempt directed against your person, and | pray that you accept my best wishes for your speedy recovery and the expression of my whole-hearted sympathy. (Signed) A. FALLIERES.” Frank James. ex-bandit and brother of the bandit, Jesse James, sent Col. Roosevelt a message to-day the subject matter only of which was made public, He suggested that 1 bodyguard of one hundred men be selected to. accompany the Colonel wherever he goes untl!l after the election. His suggestion was that Col, Roosevelt appoint ninety-nine of the hundred and that he (James) would be the hundreth man and would pay all of his expenses. Philip Roosevelt, the Colonel's cousin, to-day received a letter from a rich coffee ‘manufacturer who disclaimed any desire to advertise, but who said thet if the Colohel desired a good cup of coffee in the morning, were {i to be tHe third or not, he would gladly come on ¥ Chicago and make it for the patient with his wn hands. fhe Colonel has not been intormed, Roosevelt's secretary spent most of to-day answering the thousands of snessages of sympathy received from all parts of the United States and foreign countries. The former President insisted that personal telegrans «! thanks and reassurance be sent to all who bad wired, The attitude of Col. Roosevelt toward his would-be slayer was com- mented on to-day by Phillip J. Roosevelt, the ex-President’s cousin. “The feeling of Col. Roosevelt toward Schrank 1s most remarkable,” said the wounded man’s cousin. “He seems to feel no anger toward the man, but looks toward him in the attitude of impatience. When the shoot- {ng occurred he said: ‘Bring the man to me; bring him here. Let no one hurt him.’ After the Colonel had questioned the man briofly regarding his motives he surrendered him to the police and since that time scarcely has spoken hi» name.” Mrs. Roosevelt, her two children and Dr. Alexander Lambert, who ac companied the party from New York, left the Twentieth Century Limited at Englewood, a South Side suburb. Mrs, Longworth was waiting there with a ‘ig automobile. Mercy Hospital is on the South side, not o great distance from Englewood, and the trip between the station and the hospital was made in fast time. At first only Mrs. Roosevelt was admitted to the Colonol's room, She entered witb a smile and greeted her husband cheerfully. His robust and laughing salutation as she ertered the door was plainly heard by tho other bulletin was issued at 1.30 o'clock (2.30 New York| morning. { Elbert EK.

The young girl had been greatly worried about her father, whom she {dolizes. She was reassured when sho saw him sitting up in bed, bronzed, hearty and jemiling. It will be recalled that the Colonel thought of Ethel {n the first; telegram he sent his wife after he was shot in Milwaukee. In this message he said: “Love to Ethel.” "* Just before the arrival of the Roosevelt family at the hospital Drs, Mur- phy, Bevan and Terrell visited their patient, while Dr, William MacAuley of the hospital staff, dressed the wound. The surgeons had with them the X-ray Plates made yesterday. They found the wound healthy and showing no traces of infection. There was no trace of fever and the three surgeons issued a reassuring ‘bulletin. For the present Mrs. Roosevelt will remain at the hospital. Room’ 312, next to that of the Colonel, had been made ready for her by orders ‘trom the Colonel. The Colonel personally examined some conveniences that had been purchased before they were placed in Mrs. Roosevelt's room. When Col. Roosevelt was informed that Mrs, Roosevelt had left the train at Englewood, within two miles of the hospital and would be with him in a few moments, his first concern was that the room be in order and that everything in the room assigned to her should be ready. | “She is a good housekeeper, you know,” he told Dr. John F. Golden, “and she might scold me If she found the room not in the’ best order.” Mrs. Roosevelt to-day received the following cablegram from King George V. of England: “I have been very much concerned to hear of the austardly attack upon Col. Roosevelt's life and trust that he will recover speedily.” | Another personal cablegram was received to-day by Col. Roosevelt from King Christian of Denmark, hoping for his speedy recovery. Dr. Woods Hutchinson of New York, who has been stumping the State of Indiana for the Progressive cause, arrived here to-day and was permitted to visit Col, Roosevelt for a few minutes. The Colonel gave Dr. Hutchinson members of the family waiting in the corridor. Later Mra. Longworth, Uthel Roosevelt and Theodore Roosevelt jr. joined thelr mother in their father’s room.

MILWAUKEE, V Oct. 16.—John Schrank, the man who planned to slay Col. Roosevelt here, is legally sane, ac- cording to a statement by District-At- torney W. C. Seabel to-day. ‘The man has a perfect knowledge of right and wrong, and realizes that the act which he committed was against sald the county prosecutor. ly he may have a slight aber- ration, but only experts could determine that. ‘The man will be given a fair and | impartial trial.

They must be settled by the sane rather than the insane. Neither Col. Roosevelt nor his friends could ask that the discus- sion be turned away from the prin- ciples that are involved. If he {s elected President it should be because of what he has done in the past and what he proposed to do. A maniac, however cowardly and dastardly his deed, is not the arbiter to whom to submit Presidential contest." paca, SCHRANK IS DESERTER FROM GERMAN ARMY. MUNICH, Oct. 16—Having failed to serve the required period in the Ger- man army before going to the United States, John Schrank, Col.
