Makes Three Addresses in Twin Cities; Many Turned Away; Wishes Roose velt Werepve. , Minneapolis, Sept. 20. (By The Associated Press.) With three 'ad dresses in the Twin Cities today, Senator Hiram W. Johnson conclud ed his speaking trip through the middle west opposing the ratification of the league of nations covenant in its present form. At noon he ad dressed a large gathering at the Metropolitan opera house in S. Paul and at 4 p. m. he spoke to the Lincoln club in Minneapolis. "Tonight the climax of a strenuous day of speechmaklng was reached when he addressed a mass meeting which packed the Armory in Min neapolis. Many were turned iway unable to find stariding room. May or J. E. Meyers introduced Senator Johnson at the armory meeting, where the Cahfornian was cheered for several minutes when he entered the hall. , Answering President Wilson s statement that Theodore Roosevelt would favor the league of nations' were he alive today, Senator John son(said: ' Need of Roosevelt. "Mr. Wilson, hard nressed, quoted yesterday Theodore Roosevelt. Oh, if Roosevelt were only here, ine nation never needed him more. His commanding personality, his lofty patriotism, his love for and ride ,in our nation, his verv personality typ ical of. our republic, his loyalty to the great, cause of democracy, his fearlessness in attacking any di vided allegiance to our country, his red-blooded Americanism, would nave made short work of the un American thing which Mr. Wilson seeks to foist upon us. How strange and weird and unnatural it seems for Mr. Wilon to quqfte Theodore Koosevelt. I rev nave ever Deen tne antithesis of each other. j "One with clear vision and un erring wisdom saw the possibilities of the great world war and our in terest in it. The other with feeble" and flabby phrases preached the doc trine of neutrality in deed ana thought. ' Roosevelt, ' when it was unpopular to do so, denounced wron? and aggression, broken na tional faith and ruthless militarism. Wilson, for three years before we got into the war, was unable to tell for what the nations of the earth were fighting and told us each side was battling for the same hidden cause. I Failed to Vision. "For two vears and a half he neither saw nor understood the un derlying forces in civilization s ti tanic struggle. Unmoved and un touched he witnessed the crime agamt Belgium . and the assault upon humanity. He now speaks learnedly on the initial phases or the conflict, the actuating reasons, the roots of the cataclysm. Until the beginning of 1917, he told a dif ferent tale and spoke another story. It is onTv now. when the exigencies of his league demand another pre sentation, with a wholly dmerent background, that he reverses his ut terances from 1914 to 1917 and as sumes now to tell us the causes of the war, the underlying forces of the ruthless , militarism which pounced upon an unsuspecting world, and paints a picture utterly the reverse of that which he painted to the American people for nearly three years. And during all this time Roosevelt clearly saw and he sounded his trumoet call to the American people of preparation for the mevitaDie. wniie :vir. vvnson in utter indifference or with unseeing eyes, again and again publicly stat ed that both sides were ngnting ior the same unknown reasons and that justice substantially rested with neither. Scorned Wilson's Ideas. "Of course, Mr. Roosevelt, like all the rest of us, would have gone far to have prevented war. But when any man says that he would for a single instant have accepted the pro-British document which would put the country he so dearly loved within the power or direction, com mand or recommendation of foreign nations, that man affronts the rev ered memory of Theodore Roose velt None who knew Roosevelt, none who talked to him during his last days but know that his heart and his soul revolted at Mr. Wilson's internationalism and Mr. Wilson's endeavor to subordinate to foreign nations the American republic. " "The debate in congress yesterday indicates that gradually the issue which the proponents of the league have eWr sought to obscure is be coming increasingly plain. The able and distinguished senator from Min nesota boldly announces that he be lieves in maintaining our troops in Russia and Siberia and that upon us is the moral responsibility at least to maintain the new nations set up by the peace treaty. - No-Moral Responsibility. "If a moral responsibility exists for us to protect and preserve and maintain these new nations, the re sponsibility also exists to protect them with our power. And if this responsibility exists, it means no matter how much we may say that we deem the responsibility only moral, that; American troops must for all time in the future, whenever it be necessary, patrol threatened na tions in Europe.

No Warning Given. According to information gathered no warning in the way of Black Hand letters were to be sent to the victims. Indirectly, the investigators of the case have learned that the police officers were "to be killed by the end of the month." Their names are withheld by fed eral authorities. J. J. Daly, head of the Department of Justice operatives in Omaha, refuses to give out any information of the threats. His op eratives, who nave been working: on the cases, have been" instructed to keep reports of their investigations absolutely secret following a shootinjr in the Ital ian district 10 days ago, in which a member of the gang here is report ed to have shot twice at his wife because she Jcnew too much." two city detectives were detailed to work in conjunction with federal officials. No report of the shooting was made public by police. The woman in the case escaped injury. Her name is withheld by authorities' because of threats made to kill her if "she talked," it was said. Say Gangsters Here., : It was not until several days after Klein, the Denver detective, was shot that police are said to have learned of the importation here of Black Hand'prahcsters from the Ital ian district in Kansas City, a source of many mysterious murders in which shotguns were used. It was reported that Klein was shot and killed by mistake, the fa tal bullet having been .planned to strike his partner. A mysterious telephone call to Klein's partner -on the night of August 25 informed him of the "death threat before the end of the month," according to infor mation gathered by Denver 'police and federal officials. Klein's partner was believed by the assailant to have been visiting at the Kleinhome the night of the shooting. Klein's slayer is said to have come to Omaha. He carried away all evidence of the shooting, including empty cartridges, accord ing to reports from Denver. . Klein was head of Denver's "pro hibition squad" and had been active in running down bootleggers. . Planning Big Raid. With the rumored plots of death against Omaha police officers, fed eral authorities are awaiting the time to swoop down upon the gang. It is the opinion of federal opera tives here that the Black Hand lead ers in Denver and Kansas City are directing a ' campaign to murder liquor agents. The murder for robbery of two wealthy men out in the state also is being investigated by federal of ficials following the unearthing of Black Hand letters sent to the victims several days before, their death. Only upon the rounding up of the various affiliated gangs in ; Denver, Kansas City and Omaha will in formation of certain mysterious shootings be given out, federal au thorities declare. ' Only the Beginning; "This work is only the begirtfung of trouble," a detective working on the case here declared. "There'll be a lot more popping soon." When ' questioned concerning threats of death against them, the "marked" police officers each de clared they "have been instructed by federal officials to say nothing." J "You'll learn later," one of them said. 1 Federal authorities under the di rection of Operator Daly are said to be conducting one 'of the most sys tematic and secret investigations ever planned, in- co-operation with the officials of Kansas City and Den ver districts. . Scare Is Police Theory. When asked about the alleged Black Hand plots in Omaha, A. Venuto, Italian consul for. Nebraska, said: , "It i? preposterous to think of such a thing. My people are hard work ing and earn their daily bread by labor rather than through Black Hand schemes. Of course, there are black sheep everywhere, but I know there are no 'death plots' for rob bery or other causes brewing in the Italian district here.", Meters Reduce Per Capita Aihount of Water for Year ' - ... v ...
