4 ROOSEVELT TALKS TO THE KNIGHTS Former President Makes Strong Speech for Broadest Re ligious Tolerance PLEADS FOR MOTHER PAUL At Springfield Colonel Denounces Illinois Mackpotters' Sympathizers ftAssoclated Pressl PEORIA, 111., Oct. 12.—Former Presi dent Roosevelt came from the south Into Illinois today. In his speeches he denounced corrupt legislatures and commended the work which the Roman Catholic church is doing. Leaving St. Louis early in the day, he traveled across the southern end of Illinois speaking at several places on the way. ■ In Peoria he was the guest of the Knights of Columbus, to whom he made a speech at a dinner tonight. 'It was Col. Roosevelt's first public utterance to Roman Catholics since the Vatican incident last spring. He said he favored tho broadest measure of re- llglous toleration. In a brief speech to the crowd at the railroad station In Springfield, Col. Roosevelt made what was construed as a reference to the allegations of cor ruption in the Illinois legislature. Hard ly had he begun to speak when a man in the crowd called out: "Give it to the jackpotters, colonel." Others in the crowd, to whom the expression had become familiar since the confession of members of the Illi nois legislature that they had shared in a corruption fund which was called the jackpot, applauded. Col. Roosevelt took it up and at tacked the men involved in the scandal as vigorously as he did In his speech last month at the Hamilton club in Chicago, from which Senator Lorimer was excluded after the colonel had re fused to attend unless the Invitation to Lorimer was withdrawn. TAINTED BY SCANDAL "Good, my friend! lam glad to hear you say that," he said. "No man who Is worth his salt will have anything to do with any one of the creatures who were tainted in that scandal. The most important thing before us as people is to drive from public life the corruption ist, the bribe taker, the bribe giver. The men of whom you speak as jack potters are traitors to the American people, traitors of the basest kind, and it Is infamous In anyone to condone their iniquity or to support them and stand behind them, directly or indi rectly. "The presence in public life of such men Is a shame and a scandal, and I don't care a rap whether they belong to my party or to some other party. I hold it my duty to be equally hostile to them in either event." When Colonel Roosevelt arrived in Peoria ho went to the Country club for luncheon, then visited the home of Bishop Spalding. A public reception followed. Long before tho time for the reception the clubhouse was crowd ed. By the time the colonel got there the street outside was blocked. After he had spent an hour In shaking hands with hundreds of people the crowd in front of the building was larger than when he began. PACIFIED THE CROWD The people were told that the col onel could not shake hands with all of them, but they refused to go away. Colonel Roosevelt made a little speech from the steps to pacify those who could not get inside. At dinner tonight Bourke Cockran of New York, Richard Little Henry of Chicago and Dr. R. E. Kane of St. Louis made speeches. Colonel Roosevelt in his address said: "Last winter I visited the various Catholic missions in Africa and just about Christmas I was at one of them, Bishop Hanlon's, on the shores of the great Victoria Nyanza lake, just under the equator. There I met one of our fellow Americans, Mother Mary Paul, who was at the head of the religious sisters of the establishment. She al ready had been in correspondence with me, saying that I must not go through Africa without stopping and seeing their mission, because she was the only American missionary in Uganda, right in the heart of the Dark Continent. So of course I stopped. "Now, the mission to which Mother Paul belongs is doing a striking and admirable work in Africa and 1 prom ised her that I would publicly tell about this before some Catholic body and ask that the Catholics of the United States take an active interest in this Catholic mission In mid-Africa where much good work is being done by an American nun. TO HELP MOTHER PAUL "Uganda is one of the places where missionary effort has been signally suc cessful. From personal knowledge I wish to bear hearty testimony to the good work done there by the Catholic missions, and I hope the charitable Catholics In the United States will gladden the heart of Mother Paul by backing up in substantial fashion the missionary work to which she has given her life. "There is no other country in the world where there is such really broad religious tolerance, such good will, among good people of different religious creeds, as In America. There is no other country where Catholic and Protestant get on as we do here, each treating the other on the basis of our common citizenship and judg ing dm not as how he worships Ids Creator, but on his conduct toward his fellow men—on his own worth as a man. "We must never permit anything to make us deviate from this standpoint. "Perhaps I can give you my own theory in short form by telling you of a correspondence 1 once had. Of course In every church there are some good men wlic are narrow (as well as some men who are narrow without being good), and one of these good narrow men, a Protestant clergyman, wrote me a letter of protest about my receiving Cardinal Satolll at the White House. A CATHOLIC PRESIDENT "I wrote him back, Baying thai I had received the cardinal, just as, lor instance, l had received bodies of German Lutherans and Welsh Meth odists, and as I am expected to re ceive the archbishop of Canterbury, and that I would hold myself to be a poor representative of the American people, an unworthy president, if J failed to treat with Rood will and friendliness all good men, no matter what their religious faith might be; and then added that I could best ex plain my position by saying that I believed our country would last a very long time and that If it did there would be many presidents and some of those would be Catholics and some A.

L. Fugard, mayor of Pueblo, Colo., whose home in that city an unidenti fied man attempted to burn Wednes day, stated in an interview at the home of his mother, Mrs. S. E. Fugard, 1638 Winfieid street, Los Angeles, where he is visiting, last night, that the attempt was most likely made by a disappointed gambler. As mayor he has waged a successful fight against gambling in Pueblo. "Like all men holding public of fice," said Mayor Fugard, "I have re ceived many anonymous letters, threatening dire results if I persisted along certain lines. Well, my fight in Pueblo has been for a clean city without the vice of open gambling and as many made their livelihood in my city by operating games of chance, naturally my success In abolishing It created many enemies." Fugard compared his campaign for abolishment of the vice at Pueblo with the success attained along the same lines by the good government forces in this city. That gambling had been wiped out forever In his city, he felt certain. "Never again will ivory balls spin in roulette wheels In Pueblo," said the mayor, "and I think that open gambling In Nevada will never be re sumed again, though there la some talk of it. With the prohibiting of open gambling in Nevada, I can see no territory remaining in the United States for the gamblers to flourish." Mr. Fugard is a physician by pro fession, with a good practice In Pueblo. He Is married, having four daughters. Yesterday he received a message from his* wife to the effect that the fire scare was of no real consequence and for him not to cut short his visit with his mother and sister, Mrs. Ella B. Sheldon, on Its account. WAR DEPARTMENT CONSENTS TO NEWPORT SEWER CANAL SANTA ANA, Oct.

LOS ANGELES HERALD: THURSDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 13, 1910. STARKVILLE DEAD LIST INCREASES Workers Remove Bodies Found at Noon Over Rough and Dangerous Trail TRAIN KILLS ELECTRICIAN Three-Fourths of 55 Miles of the Workings Explored by Rescue Party \ V (Associated Press" STARKVILLE, Colo., Oct. 12.—The situation at the Colorado Fuel and Iron company mine here tonight may be summarized as follows: | Bodies buried and in morgue, 14; bodies located in the mine, 8; bodies missing, 33. Three-fourths of the fifty-five miles of stopes, cross-cuts and entries ex plored by rescue parties. Tonight the workers are devoting their energies to the removal of the eight bodies located at noon. Their task is made doubly hard by the con dition of the bodies, and the 6700 feet of rough and dangerous trail over which they must bo carried to the death cars. Those not needed in the work are pushing their way to the L entries, where fifteen men are believed to be entombed. Fred Foster, an electrician of Wal senburg, was struck by a Santa Fe train and killed, after coming out of the mine with his shift today. He is reported to have been engaged 'to marry a Trinidad girl a few months hence. Nearly half a hundred rescuers, pushed through the main entrances and cross-cuts, exploring all side chambers, and just before relief ar rived came upon the bodies of Wllbert Headqulst, Thomas Upperdlno and one unidentified man in H-l. EXPLORE OLD WORKINGS After receiving reports from the night men, officials expressed the opinion that before nightfall rescuers would be able to penetrate the unex plored workings and locate the re mainder of the missing. Although encountering many falls and obstructions, the force succeeded in exploring a large portion of the old workings and by devious ways came to within a few hundred feet of the masonry wall which shuts off the En glevllle mine. No trouble was ex perienced with the air, the only delay coming from the mass of rocks and shattered timbers which in places often almost filled the passageways. Every energy is being directed to the speedy removal of the bodies. Evidences discovered strengthen the officials in the belief that the explo sion occurred In the old workings, from which it traveled in all directions, pen etrated every corner of the mine and that the men were killed by its force rather than by afterdamp. News of the promised early discovery of the remaining victims caused slight commotion In camp, survivors being content to wait the transfer to the morgue. The mountain sides around the portal were practically deserted. GILLETT REVIEWS 4000 MILITIA AND REGULARS Rain Halts Maneuvers at Camp Atascadero—Californians Go Home Friday CAMP ATASCADERO, Oct. 12.— Governor Gillett today reviewed the 4000 troops of this camp. A drizzling rain fell throughout the ceremony. Immediately after the review there was a reception for the governor, to which all officers were invited by General Bliss. There was to have been a spectac ular maneuver but it was deferred on account of the rain. The governor's arrival at camp was heralded by a salute of seventeen guns. Col. Charles Mason, Eighth infantry, commanded the review, which was formed in four lines. The first line consisted of the Eighth and Thirtieth regular infantry and the Fifth Cali fornia infantry. The second line was composed of the Second and Seventh California and Companies A and IJ» California Na tional Guard signal corps. The third line was composed of Com pany E, field .signal corps, provision battalion of field artillery, two troops of the Eighth U. S. cavalry. Troop B and C, California cavalry; Capt. L. L. Hopwood, medical corps with the ambulance company formed the fourth line. '- ■ The governor expressed himself highly pleased with the appearance of the entire command, and many reg ular army officers stated the organ ized militia were a great credit to the state. Baseball is nearing its close in camp. The Eighth infantry today clinched first place by defeating the Thirtieth infantry, 11 to 1. The race for second place is between the artillery and the headquarters team. On Friday the Californians start Homeward, and Saturday and Sunday the regulars will go. Lieut. John W. Ward,' Thirtieth In fantry, whose leg was recently ampu tated as the result of a railroad acci dent, will be sent t i the Presidio hos pital tonight at midnight.
