"All that Mr. Roosevelt said In thl case
was that he was pleased to find that as
he' had' expected frotn Mr, Poindexter's
past record, Mr. Polndexter was in hearty
sympatny witn Mr. Roosevelt's views as

Roosevelt expressed no opinion about the

for the statementa which have aDDeared
Certainly insofar as these statements have
quoted Mr. Roosevelt except as above indi
cated they had no foundation whatever in

Colonel Roosevelt's statement waa called
forth by the fact that he took exception
to special dispatches from Oyster Bav

saying mat he would support Mr.
Polndexter In his contest for a seat In

from the circus management
The loss to the circus Is estimated to
be $20,000, while the damage In this city
Is estimated at $5,000 in broken plate glass,

A large crowd was In the tent when the
storm struck. The management of the
circus warned (he spectators of their peril
ana mere was a stampede for the exits
as the tent began to sway and the big
poles were lifted from the ground.
The animals In the menagerie tent were
locked in their cages and the elephants
had been loaded on the cars when It Waa
seen that a storm was coming and this
undoubtedly averted a stampede.
The spectators had hardly left the tent
when the first 'blast ripped the canvas
Into ribbons. The canvas caught fire
from the lamps and was carried biasing
Into the air.
Flying, poles and pieces of seats were
hurled after the fleeing, people, who,
blinded by dust, were rushing for places

The storm covered an area about 100 miles

Large numbers f the colored people of
Omaha gathered at Union station last night
to wait for the coming of Jack Johnson,
champion of the wbrld. The train was
somewhat late, but that did not stop his
admirers from waiting to pay their homage
to the man who was successful against
James J. Jeffries.
Johnson Is traveling in the special car
"Redondo," on the Union Pacific from
Ogden, and will be transferred to the
Northwestern line from this point He will
only wait fifteen minutes at the Omaha
station, leaving at 11:46.
Prominent among the crowd welcoming
the fighter In Omaha were the members
of the Independent club. The club had
selected Charles Coleman, Frank Goldman,
and Henry Buford, the president, secretary
ana treasurer of the club, respectively, to
act as its representatives In the reception
committee, other prominent men of tho
colored spoits of Omaha who were on

The special train, "The Clysnlc," carry

sporting men, arrived In Omaha last
evening from Reno. .The crowd Is reported
as not quite as hilarious as when it
passed through here on Its way west for
the reason that the majority of them had
their money and quite a roll of it placed on

out of their bands with those uppercuts
of his.
