RICHMOND ASSURED OF SEEING TEDDY Speakers' Bureau Makes Announcement to Local Party Men.

"Roosevelt will speak in Richmond during the present campaign," said Frank J. Doudican, chief of the speakers bureau, yesterday when approached by a representative of the Wayne county Progressive central committee. Mr. Doudican was asked the question whether it was a positive fact that Richmond would have an opportunity to hear the Colonel, he replied by saying "that he was familiar with the disappointments Richmond has had in getting speakers and that Roosevelt would come to Richmond if he did not get to any other city in the state." He said that the pains for Roosevelt's Indiana tour were not completed but he thought the Colonel would enter the state about the middle of October.
