John Schrenk, who uttempied to kill Roosevelt, hook ed little the worse for a night went in a cell, reposing on a plank for a be! tfrhrenk called for a cup of coffee, and something to eat shortly after 7 o'clock. He waH given a sandwich, which he ate, though It waa Maid hi appetite waa not very keen. Th prisoner probably will not hi taken into court today.

Schrenk Is a single man and claims he had but one sweetheart. She was Kmlly Zlegft-r, he said, and she was lost in the disaster of the steamer wenerri Slocum in New York several ears ago. Schrtpk appeared unperturbed over the consequences awaiting him as the result of the shooting. Schrenk talked mtiorftlly this morning. As to hla jcll ties he raid he usually voted the Dem ocratic ticket, but sometimes voted as a Republican. The weapon which Schrenk used is a deadly 38-oallbre. It In the kind used extensively in the army, e.nd mado to "shoot to kill." Schrenk does not have the appearance of a laborer. His hands are smooth as though unused to toil. He talked fluently ftt times, using ex cellent English. His appearance Is that of an Intelligent man and to the police did not seem like a man Insane. The police, however, believe he is afflicted with some mental disorder. Ills stories f a dream and vision, and the cv.rlous letters and clippings found In his pockets seemed to bear out this theory. It is apparent to all who saw him tnt Schrenk was thoroughly In earnest and he felt It was a matter of high duty to kill Roosevelt. Assassin Followed Roosevelt. New York. Oct. 15. John Schrenk.

Kooseveits would-be assassin, up to a month ago was a lodger In the White hotel, a lodging house Just oft the bowery. Ho wus a guest there, nine months, occupying a room that cosf two dollars a week. Gustav Jost owner of th hotel, said today he had known Sohrenk a long time, though never Intimately. "The man's father was oni old time saloon keeper on Elisabeth street," said Jost. "Yountf Schrenk was a quiet, unassuming fellow. He did not appear prosperousIn fact two months ago he asked me to get him a Job somewhere as a bartender or waiter. Last Sep tember. Schrenk quit the hoteL leav ing a forwarding address. He said he was going out of town t visit relative? A few iluya later he sent me a souvenir lK)t tard from a southern town, I think in South Carolina. I notice by the papers this morning he had gone south in pursuit of Roosevelt. ".Schrenk never talked politics with me and never gave any indications of possessing 'violent opinions. He was the last man I would have picked as a would-be assassin." Great Crowd Much Excited. Milwaukee, Oct. 15. Roosevelt, who proceeded to the Auditorium to deliver his speech in spite of his wound, bare ly escaped being caught In a terrific Jam as he entered the bJilding. As the report spread Roosevelt was shot, people came on a run from every di rection. They beat on the locked doors and shouted f r admission and also for the latest news. As t ho crowd In, the Auditorium learned Roosevelt was shot, the excitement spread. Roose velt was the only person who appar ently was not excited. Albert H. Martin, Roosevelt's secre f;ry. who perhaps saved the Colonel's life by leaping like a tiger onto the ns sailant, Schrenk, figured once before In a less conspicuous manner as one of the Colonel's bodyguards. Martin was walking throush a crowd In Sagi naw with Roosevelt last Wednesday night when a man rushed up shouting. Although it appeared probable the man merely was an enthusiast who wished to shake hands, Martin took no chances. ' With a powerful lunge ho sent the man flying across the street. The man's hand brushed the Colonel'r coat, but he got no nearer to him. Tne Colonel ended his address at the Auditorium by adding with soften). tense words "charity, kindness and generosity" to hla regular appeal for recruits to the Progressive cause. His words usually are "work and fight," but last nlsht he said: "I appeal to you to Join with us to work, to fight, but with charity, with kindness and with generosity to bring about social and Industrial Justice." Martin Hero of Day. Chicago. Oct. IP. The hero of the attempted assassination of Roosevelt, tho man who is given credit for having prevented Schrenk tiring a second shot, for which his linger was strain ing at the rrli.'ger when he was over powered, Is Albert E. Martin, the Col onel's stenographer. Martin had his chance when Schrenk fired his shot at the Colonel and he was 'ready for It. All thrcimh the present tour Mirtln has been putmlng Intrusive iK-raors away. In the Sagi naw Incident Martin threw himself against a man who was pushing for ward and threw him Into the, gutter. For this he; was rebuked by Roose velt, bi.t today Martin said the man of Saginaw, Mlchln, and Schrenk were the same.
