Close Friend of William
Lorimer.
Chieafro. Oct 14. Colonel Roose
velt, rep.ylng to Governor Deneen,
said today, "If Deneen at Uhat time
(Lorimer's election to the senate) was
such an Innocent lamb as not to know
about Lorimer and what was going on
under his own eyes in the Jack-pot leg
islature than Peneon is an altogether
too innocent, a creature to be allowed
at large in American political life."
Regarding the Chicago convention, the
colonel said: "Peneen can now face
whichever alternative he chooses. If
those, delegates were stolen, then his
conduct is infamous now; if they
were not sto'.en then, his conduct wab
infamous then."
Springfield, 111., Oct 14. In reply
to the attack made on him by Colonel
Roosevelt In Chicago Saturday, Gover
nor Deneen late at night Issued a
statement defending his course iu the
( hicago republican convention, deny
ing any "defensive alliance" with Wil
liam Lorimer, and closing with the re
tort that "because Roosevelt failed for
nomination) and because I refused to
deBert tho republican party, I am sub
jected to unmerited abuse."
Resenting the Imputation that he Is
allied with Lorimer, Governon Deneen
declares: "Colonel Roosevelt has evi
dently forgotten his old-time friendship
for Mr. Lorimer. Mr. Lorimer was an
adviser of the colonel In Illinois when
ho was president for a long time and
a number of federal appointments
made during Colonel Roosevelt's ad
ministration were friends of Mr. Lori
mer. "Practically all of them Joined wltti
Mr. Lorimer, not only In opposing me
daring Colonel Roosevelt's adminis
tration, but In trying to defeat m at
the polls four years ago, when Colo
nel RooBevelt was still president of
the United States. The colonel should
'cultivate his memory' also, because
the Roosevelt machine in Illinois dur'
lng his administration opposed nearly
every progressive reform which I ad
vocated and secured despite Its oppo
sitlon.

that a commlteee of five representing

stated In effect that if I would agree to

nounce that fact no third party ticket
would be nominated against me and
I would be Indorsed and supported by
the colonel's friends.
"Lastly, Colonel Roosevelt states
that Senator Lorimer called at tbe ex
