NliW VOKK, June IS. (.Special Tele
gram.) In London there wan but one gen
eral toplo Roosevelt. On every tongue It
wus heard. Little else wan discussed. At
Waterloo station the crowd w dense, yet
the man himself was tramping through
the country miles awuy, near Southampton,
and when the train finally picked him up
at that station and steamed toward the
do kH the window! were all full of people,
anxious to gaze, even for a second, upon
this remarkable man. At the docks the
baggage men were more concerned in see
ing him than In handling the accumulated
luggage. Here and there boys with good
cockney lungs were crying papers of this,
that or the other name that contained his
ppeech.
While all this tumult was In the air,
the man himself was bidding good-bye to
men In uniform. A shower came up and as
his tug steumed out to meet the Kalserln
Auguste Victoria, loud cheers rang out all
along the docks. The demonstration at
tending his departure could of course not
bo compared with his wtlcome here, but
even though It was an Imitation, it em
phasises the universal popularity of the
man. '
- The big steamship waa a little late, but
once alongside the tug a band struck up
our national air and the people cheered.
When Colonel Roosevelt wulked abeard.
Each porthole contained the head of a
yelling fireman shouting as though the boat
were on fire.
Plain and Democratic.
Finally we were all aboard. Colonel
Roosevelt democratically accepted the
plaudits of his fellow passengers. Just as
the i nose of the big Hamburg-American
liner pointed toward America under full
head of steam, some man on the promen
ade deck hailed another with, "Is Jeffries
going to whip Johnson?" -
And standing by was Colonel Roosevelt,
plain and democratic, smiling and showing
his gleaming' teeth. - He' that caused ail
the whistles and talk, moved among his
friends and acquaintances quietly talking
just as you, 1, or any other man -would do.
I thought that the demonstration had been
finished, but It was Just beginning. It
lasted all the way across the Atlantic,
culminating in the grand demonstration
hare today.
Saturday, one week ago today. Colonel
Roosevelt spent an hour looking over a
book called "T. R. In Cartoon." He spoke
of various things at home which the pic
tures had awakened In his memory. He
laughed at some of the drawings; smiled
at others, but he frowned at none. Across
his memory flitted forgotten Incidents,
called up by the pictures. He recalled that
tills thing had come about when such
and such was the case, or that thing
had transpired when something else was
happening. His great regret waa that
the cartoons were not dated.
The following day Sunday found him
at the religious services on shipboard. He
aang with the others and waa more than
Interested In the homely sermon and Its
apeal to common sense. In the evening
he spoke to the second class and steerage
passengers. He told them their duty to
America and themselves after they had
landed and then enrolled themselves as
American citizens.
Visits the Stokers.
Monday, Colonel Roosevelt made the
j rounds of the engine room and flrerooms
: and shook hands with one whole watch of
grimy stokers. He admired them and told
them so. He commented on the cleanliness
of their quarters. The watch was very
proud of the honor, I can tell you.
Tuesday, there was a reception and the
colonel met many of the ship's passengers.
Then it was that I had my best op
portunity to Htudy him, when he was un
conscious of the fact.
As people from various states were an
nounced, Colonel Roosevelt s expression
varied according to the location. One
from Lynn, Mass., brought forth a dig
nified expression; the next was from
Kansas and he almost, had his arm pulled
out from the socket; the next from Vir
ginia brought forth' an expression as
though he was a sampler of Sinithfleld
r.ams; the next was from Oklahoma and
the colonel nearly turned a somersault into
his lap. Such real pleasure was never
witnessed as his meeting this assorted
assembly. In one Instance he fairly held
an old woman by the hand to prove to
her that he really remembered her hus
band. Sometimes after being Introduced
to a person Colonel Roosevelt would take
a few hundred steps as the other turned
away, keeping up a running fire of ques
tions, no matter what state a man came
from, the colonel knew something about
It and wax desirous of knowing more.
Always m Plain Man. '
The great mass of marconlgrama that
came from shore and r asking ships did not
disturb him In the least. He was always
the plain, jovial man w ith a ready wit and
a keen vein of sarcasm. At a lecture on
the power of the curtoon he was bobbing
up and down In hU seat commenting first
(pit this face, then on another. At Its close
lie jumped to his feet and endorsed the
cartoon In a ringing voice. He was thank
ful, he said, that the cartoon bud done so
much good work in behalf of one like Ad
n iral George Dewey, w ho bud done so
much for the nation.
As we neared the . American shore his
yes grew brighter. He spent moments of
absolute quiet on the upper deck and last
night be sat up until midnight telling
torles.
He waa not the "elderly man with the
varltd past." that he described himself
Yehrn h,U first lion was about to charge

Former President Not Talking Pol
itics and Refuses to Give Out
Interview.
GUESSING ON WHAT WILL HAPPEN
Politicians Surprised at Enthusiasm
of New York Reception.
NO SUCH GREETING EXPECTED
Little Comfort for Those Who
Thought Him a Dead One.
ONE GUEST AS GOOD AS ANOTHER
As ' Much Cordiality Shown When
Meeting; Enemies aa When
Clasping the Hands of
Wuiu Friends.
NEW YORK, June 19. -The tremendous
enthusiasm with which former President
Roosevelt was greeted yesterday the fact
that there were present In the great crowds
which greeted him men from every sec
tion of the country was a tirprise to
the scores of prominent politicians of all
shades of opinion, who had conio here to
size ud the hold Mr. RooBevelt lias upou
the people.
To Borne It was In the nature of a shock,
These had hoped again hope that the
power of this man to move the American
people had been over-estimated- When
they heard him cheered as few men have
ever been cheered, by the great multitudes
which watched him as he stood In his car
riage, hat and hands waving, his smiling
face agleam wlh pleasure and good will,
no doubt was left in the minds of the
keenly observant politicians that he has
lost none of his hold- on the American
people and that he Is today the most po
tent force In American politics.
What will he do? That is a question
which many an anxious repubublican to
day would give half his fortune to have
an answer. If Mr. Roosevelt himself
knows, he keeps the Information carefully
to himself. In reply to urgent questions
from newsDSDer men and politicians, he
said:
Not Talking Politics;
"I shall have nothing whatever to say
in the Immediate future about politics and
will hold no Interview whatever on the
subject with anyone, and anything pur
porting to be an interview with me that
may appear can be set down at once as
Invention."
Small . comfort . In that to . men whose
political future may hinge on what the
master politiclons of the republican party,
If not the nation, have to say.
In his greeting of poltlcal friends, Mr.
Roosevelt gave no indication as to his
feeling In regard to the republican split
His 'greeting Zwas sJc!ttTTo"Sena'tor
Lodge aa to Glfford Plnchot and not a
whit more so.
Until the sphinx speaks the riddle will
not be solved. In the meantime one man's
guess is as good as another's.
No group of politicians are more an
xious to have Colonel Roosevelt speak than
those of New York. That he alone can save
the republican party from defeat In No
vember Is generally accepted as a fact
by republican leaders.
One thing is certain, Mr. Roosevelt will
not talk politics If he can avoid It, untl he
has had. a chance to rest up a bit. His
son's wedding takes place Monday and he
is to visit them at their Massachusetts
summor home for a Bhort while, after
that he will probably be able to avoid
politics and politicians for a week or two.
After that it Is likely to be different
Will Study at First Hands.
"Roosevelt's intentions are one thing,"
said one man who has been closely asso
ciated with him since he became a domin
ant figure in politics, "and what he may
do, may be an entirely different proposi
tion. Undoubtedly the determination to
remain quiet for several months while
he studies the situation at first hand is
very wise. But I think that If he sees that
the legislature at the extra session Is bent
on putting the party Into a further hole,
he will be unable to keep out of the
fight
"Well informed, as he is, on the situation
here, I don't think he fully realizes the
bitter feeling of the men who have been
seeing the republican party go to the
dogs during the last fifteen months. When
they get to pouring into his ear the
troubles and their resentment it is Im
possible to conceive that he will not be
stirred, ard he will take some action. His
natural Inclination would be, of course,
to k( cp out of the extra session fight in
view of the fact that when he once of
fered to l elp Hughes It was rather rudely
Intimated that he should mind his own
business.
"On the other, hand It would appeal to
him greatly if it were suggested that now
his help would be welcome."'
And to an outsider that seems to pretty
well sum up the situation at least there
is hei.rd no belter summing up.

NEW YORK. Juner 19. Do not for

Mrs. Alice Roosevelt Longworth and
Miss Ethel Roosevelt returned, too.
It was a happy family, reunion and while
the cheers from the great , multitudes of
hip, dock and street well up in a mighty
roar, Mrs. Roosevelt's heart must ,have
leaped with motherly Joy at the sight of
the three children whom she had not seen

Mrs. Roosevelt .is not ."an emotional
woman, tut there .were tears in her eyes
when, with a shoot, Archie and Quentln
raced across the deck of the Manhattan
and Into their mother's arms.
To begin at the very beginning the three
younger members of the Roosevelt family
arose early this morning and sailed down
the bay upon the tug Manhattan along
with a crowd of notable men of affairs.
all bound on the common errand of wel
coming Colonel Theodore Roosevelt back
to his native heath. Upon the Man
hattan was Miss, Eleanor Alexander, who
is to be married to Theodore,- Jr., on
Monday.
"I'm going to kiss pop first," said
Quentln, as though guarding that sacred
honor to the exclusion of all others.
Quentln stood at the rail of the boat espy
ing keenly ahead. When the bulk of
the Kalserln loomed out of the early morn
ing mist he let out a shout
Kiss for Miss Alexander.
After the boys hugged their father they
turned to their mother's waiting arms.
Colonel Roosevelt, with characteristic Im
petuosity placed his arms about his son's
fiance and planted a loud smacking kiss
on her choek. That young woman looked
decidedly uncomfortable for a moment,
but the colonel was not disconcerted In
the least. Theodore, Jr's, greeting with his
father was a hearty clasp of the hand and
a slap on- the back, but he got kissed
from his mother and sisters.
It waa the original plan to breakfast on
the Manhattan, but the fog complicated
this arrangement. Therefore the Roose
velt had eaten before they went aboard
tho tug.
Colonel Roosevelt was attired in a tOD
hat and . frock coat Mrs. Roosevelt was
attired In blue. Mrs. Lonewmth mi mi..
Kthel were exactly opposite in their tastes.
Miss Ethel wore a simple plain frock cf
subdued color. She wore no jewels, not
even a ring. Mrs. Longworth was gorgeous
In scarlet and ablaze with jewels. Miss
Alexander wore black and Teddy, Jr., wore
gray and a straw hat He also carried a
cane.
Kermlt still wore the coat of tan he
acquired In Africa. He clasped Teddy, Jr.,
by the hand and exclaimed: "Ted. I've got
some dandy photographs for you."
To Miss Alexander he said by way of a
compliment: "Ted always waa a lucky
chap."
Mlaa Ethel Interested.
Miss Ethel stood demurely at her
mother's side, but she was aqulver with
Joy at the booming guns, the screaminc
whistles and the shouting people. Every
where flags waved, hats were tossed into
the air and crys of welcome were seen and
heard. Mrs. Longworth lingered In her
cabin and nonchalantly looked at the
spectacle aa though she wasn't very much
impressed with it
Mrs. Roosevelt quietly faded out of the
dashing picture when the official part of
the ceremony came on with a rush. She
and. Mrs; Longworth and the children re
mained on the Manhattan and were later
landed at the Battery.
During the address of welcome Mrs.
RooBevelt, smiling and serenely happy, sat
between Mrs. Gaynor, wife of Mayor
Gaynor, and her children.
Colonel Roosevelt bowed his resects to
the Gaynora and waved his hard to hi
family. Miss Ethel suddenly became very
much excited. Khe Jumped from her eat,
clapped her hands and called to hi-r mother,

the crowd. Quentln waved his flag to them
und Mrs. Roosevelt smiled in reply to their
n.'lsy greeting.

In the country surrounding Wayne, for

all the small grain is ruined beyond hope

oral (Vfleiency bill, or complications which
rny ;isc In connection in connection with
the omnibus and public buildings bill. Some
members look for the adjournment to take
place as early as Thursday.
It Is pointed out by republican leaders
that there never has been a Congress
where the president has obtained the
amount of legislation that has resulted
from the demands of President Taft.
Starting in on the demand for revision
of the tariff, he procured this at an ex
traordinary scsKlon. Then at the beginning
of the prosent session, he demanded legis
lation amendatory of the Interstate com
merce laws, enubltng the president to pur
sue a forward conservation policy, admit
ting Arizona and New Mexico to state
hood, creating postal savings banks and
on the subject of the uso of Injunctions.
Bills on all thtse subjects have passed
both branches of congress, with the excep
tion of the antl-lnjunctlon measure. That
will have to wait until the next session,
but it is said the prospects are good for Its
passage at that time. All of the rcgulnr
supply have passed both houses, except
the general deficiency bill. That was
passed by tho house Saturday, and will
be reported to the senate not later than
Tuesday. Unless there is trouble In con
nection with a scheme for the retirement
of superannuated employes of the govern
ment, which the bill may carry, It Is
thought Its pusfage will take not more
than one day.
Bunk Bill Before Senate,
The postal savings bank bill Is still before
tho senate. It came from- the house In
the form of an amended bill, and Senator
Carter moved that the senate conour in
the house amendments. Opposition de
veloped and the motion has been dhat.rt
Inttrmlttontly since the bill returnej from
the house. President Taft approvts cf the
house bill, and It seems reasonably certalrr
that the senate will accept It.
The rivers and harbors bill Is a Tallin
the president's signature, and he will soon
have the omnibus public buildings bill,
which was reported to the house yeatrri'.ty!
With both of thef.e measures befor him,
ho Is In position to command that action
be taken on smh remaining legislation aa
he feels should pass.
President Ttft tomorrow will sign the
statehood bill. It Is likely that there will
ho a number of claimants for the pen used
.n slsning that historic Instrument. Presi
dent Taft probably will use t. n.n. in
approving the bill and give o e to Dele
gate Andrews, representing .No Mexico,
anu tne other to Delegate Cameron, rep
resenting Arizona.
In tho last few days of this session there
will be a flood of requusts In both branches
of congress for unanimous consent to t ke
up measures of importance to the com
munities of Individual members. Many
members aro doomed to disappointment,
for neither branch of congress as a whole,
shows much patience In dealing with meas
ures which have not commanded attention
until adjournment is imminent.
