REFUSES TO SIT WITH LORI?M Roosevelt Throws Bomb Into Hamil ton Club Camp-Invitation to Lorinier Withdrawn. Chicago, September 8.-Col. Theo dore Roosevelt, ex-president of th United States, today barred Senato! William Lorimer, junior senator fron Illinois, from the Hamilton club ban quet at the'Congress hotel by refus ing to sit at the same table. The iii cident came unheralded. The program of the big event, under the guidance of the Hamilton club, has for days an nounced that Senator Lorimer and others would sit at the speakers' tabl with Col. Roosevelt. The occurrence startled politicians here and over the State. The unpre cedented demand that the Hamilton club deny to one of its own members the privilege of attending the banquel came with characteristic abrnptness from Col. Roosevelt. The Hamilton club delegation, head ed by former Judge John T. Batten joined Col. Roosevelt at the faif grounds in Freeport, Ill., shortly after noon. The colonel shook hands hear tily with each member of the delega ion and at once began questioning them concerning the banquet. Why Speaker Cannon? "Is Speaker Cannon to be there? he asked. "Yes," Mr. Batten replied; "he har accepted the invitation." "How about Senator Lorimer?" waE asked. "Senator Lorimer is a member o the club," he was told, "and has ac cepted an invitation to dinner." "Then I must decline to go," sai< Col. Roosevelt, adding that he wou< feel the same about the presence o Senator Lorimer as he would of sit ting down with members of the Illi nois legislature who are under indict inent in the graft investigation. The committee members looke< their amazement, and finally, afte: some hesitation, informed their gues they would go back to Chicago an tell Senator Lorimer his views. "No," Col. Roosevelt said emphati cally. "Send a telegram telling hin that I will not attend the dinner to night if he is there." Lorimer's Invitation Withdrawn. The Hamilton club men were per plexed, but their embarrassment wai apparently not noticed by Col. Roose velt, who chatted with others stand ing ner.: by- After some interval th4 following telegram was drafted an< dispatched to Senator Lorimer: "Col. Roosevelt positively decline: to sit at the same table with you. Ouw invitation to you for this evening i! hereby withdrawn." This telegram was signed by for mier Judge John H. Batten. The dele gation which waited on Col. Roose velt to escort* him to Chicago and thi banquet hall this evening was take: completely by surprise and their dis cussion of the event did not cease witi the sending of the telegram to Senato: Lorimer. MAY SEEK TO "COME BACK." Col. Roosevelt Thinks It Is Improb able, Nevertheless Admitted Pos sibility. Freeport, Ill., Sept. 8.-Col. Roose velt admitted today there is a possi bilty of his returning to public life In this connection he issued a warn Ing to corrupt corporations that an' aid they might extend him in obtain ing any official place would be a their own peril and not with the ide; of getting official favors or pardon later. The statement was in ti.4 adt.ess i: connection with the fair of the va -lrous national organizations of rail * way employes for the benefit of th home for aged and decrepit railroat men of America at Highland Pars I1ll. P. J. Morrissey, past grand maste of'.the Brotherhood of Railway Train men, introduced him. He talked o railway men and then turned to cor -porations. -Always a Chance. "IT don't suppose I ever shall be i3 public life again," he said, "but if am there is always the chance tha some time it may come up when shall make my words good. -"'No corporation, no politician. mus ever support me for anything unde +the idea that I will pardon that co~ poration or politician if he or it is cor rupt. "If either corporation or politiciar if either one or the other helps at an time to put me in a position of irn fluence let them remember -thati they are corrupt, if they encourag corruption in others or if they benef by it themselves, they help me at thei peril, for I will hurt them if I get tb chance." Col. Roosevelt especially warne men of the five brotherhoods of rai way employes that it should be the duty to see that their organizatlol were managed in obedience to law at lence the result would be to i then in the estimation of the A ican, people. He advocated a N I. ingman's compensation act as a r ure of justice for railway emp who are injured in the line of duty. Col. Roosevelt also read an letter by Wm. R. Hearst in whicl Hearst advised the colonel to r4 to New York and take up the fig] the Republican organization, s, if he did so Mr. Hearst would I sympathy with him. The colonel "I am going back to my Stat mentioned by Mr. Hearst, to fight !the bosses. I will welcome the port of any man who wishes to a that fight.' Had Lively Time. Col. Roosevelt's experiences o way from Milwaukee here were li At the various towns at which train stopped, large crowds wer4 to greet him and he made a nu: of speeches, reiterating his doct of honesty and good citizenship. When the train arrived at Wes gin the largest crowd at any st except Freeport had assembled. crush on the track which at the tion is laid on the edge of a | bank, almost led to a serious acci The crowd stretched far down tracks and behind the special cai to the side away from the del Col.
