ROOSEVELT CALLS PACIFISTS AIDS OF THEJCAISER More Jhan 12,000 Persons

Hear ex-President at Indianapolis. INDIANAPOLIS. Ind.. June 12.

Theodore Roosevelt opened the thrift

stamp campaign for Indianapolis last

night at an enthusiastic mass meet

ing at the State Fair Grounds Coliseum. More than 12,000 persons applauded his demands for a speedy victory over Germany and his attacks upon the people and interests who would in any way oppose successful prosecution of the war. Colonel Roosevelt arrived here shortly before 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon. His train was two hours late, but more than 5,000 persons waited for him at Union Station and gave an old-time Roosevelt demonstration the minute he appeared The ovation last night was reminiscent of the wonderful receptions that have been tendered him in former years by Indianapolis people. Mayor Jewett. of Indianapolis, met the Colonel at Terre Haute and accompanied !

him here. Governor Goodrich met the

Colonel s train at Greencastle. Crowds at Stations. There were crowds waiting for the Colonel at Terre Haute. Greencastle and other points, but he did not attempt to speak. From the train platform at Greencastle the Colonel saw a veteran of the Civil war and to him he said, "My friend, I am fighting now for what you fought for in the Civil war." A company of soldiers from the Tenht Infantry, accompanied by the Tenth Infantry band, and a detachment of the Boy Scouts with their drum corps led the parade. A crowd gathered in front of a big sign board and cheered the Colonel as he mounted the scaffold and painted his name beneath the appeal for the sale of thrift stamps. Mayor Jewett presided at the meeting. Colonel Roosevelt made a

strong appeal for preparedness, for vigorous prosecution of the war. He spoke against the teaching of the German languag) in the private and public grade schools. He urged the public to buy liberally of war savings stamps. Praises Red Cross. He spoke in favor of the Red Cross and other war charities, but he said that all of them are of secondary importance to the efforts of the soldiers who are going overseas to fight the country's battle against Germany. Their efforts, he maintained, are supreme to everything else. He spoke against all such organizations as the German-American Alliance, which he &aid should be abolished by Congress, even though it had ceased to exist. Such organizations he temed as un-American. He declared their sole object is to further

the interest of Germany and to make

the interests of America secondary to

those of the fatherland. Throughout his speech he dwelt upon the absolute necessity of speeding up preparations for fighting Germany. He dealt vigorously with the pacifists.

who, he said, are Germany's greatest

asset in this country at this time. He

repeated his arsuments in favor of

univrreal military training. Colonel and Mrs. Roosevelt left here early this morning with Governor and Mrs. Goodrich for Blomington, where the Colonel delivered a speech at Indiana University. -

The picture shows the American steamer Herbert L. Pratt, one of the victims of the Germans' submarine raid along the Atlantic coast The Pratt was torpedoed by a U-boat and began sinking.

"Bill' Daryl Raney, one of the best first basemen ever produced around Richmond, and always full of plenty of sunshine, writes Sam Vogran from his "Summer home on the Chesepeake bay," as he calls it. Raney is a member of the second company of the Coast Artillery : stationed at Cape Henry, Va., on the Chesapeake. The letter follows:

l guess l need not introduce myself to you or even attempt to elaborate upon my qualities as a baseball player. I have heard that you are looking for a good, fast, hard hitting first baseman. "Now this season I have had rather a tough start as I only hit .750 for three games we have played. I have had an offer to play with th Rifle Range bunch who are leading the Army and Navy league here. Upon second thought I guess I will be un

able to play with you this season as I am sure that you could not offer me as much as I am. receiving in the International league. And even if you were able to. you know it means a whole lot to be playing with the team that is leading the league. "Well Sam, I suppose you know I have taken a very pretty place for my summer home, along the Chesepeake bay. But I am of the opinion

that I will get a long ride before the summer is over. ... "I am in the coast artillery and I think it the best branch of service. Up until the war it was first and I guess it ranks second now. "Sure Like the Place." "While there is not much around here but sand and water. I sure like the place. We have a fine bunch of guys in the company and that sure helps a lot. "Our duty is to guard the coast as our name shows. But we are so drilled that we can go into any branch of service, with the exception of the air service. "We have the fastest gun detachment that has ever drilled on our gun so our old sergeant tells us. We load

and fire the old girl in four and twofifth seconds. And when you know that there is a little bit that five men i

have to do each time, you can see that we step some. "I suppose you have read about the German "sub" scare. They have teen as close a3 25 miles to us and as soon as they take 10 or 15 miles off the 25, we will be able to send one home to our girls for a souvenir as they sure are out of luck when they get within that distance from us. "We are doing guard duty at our batteries iiow and are on six hours and off six hours each day and night

and I still weigh 212 pounds. This is a very good place for them to work and a better place for them to try and land, for every man in camp has sixty rounds of lead kisses and a bunch patrol the beach every night. "And when they get close enough to use a gattling gun I have been assigned to one and I guess they would be all out of luck. Well, Sam, I guess I will hav3 to hit the bunk and try to get a little hay before we go on. "My kindest regards to the wife and babe. Give by regards to all the fellows and tell them I am all full of pep. Tell Carl Roop and the rest to write. Fraternally yours, BILL.

SHELBYV1LLE, Ind., June 12., The second Shelby county boy to die of wounds suffered in France was Private Bernard Hurst, 21 years old, of Battery E, One Hundred and Fiftieth Rield Artillery, whose death was Reported in the government casualty list given out in Washington today. The other boy who lost his life was Paul F. Cross, son of the Rev. and Mrs. S. J. Cross of this city. He was a member of the same battery. His death was announced last Sunday. Bernard Hurst's address in the cas ualty list was given as Oldenburg.

"The Merry Widow" is Convicted as Foe Spy . . PARIS, May 31. (Correspondence of the Associated Press.) Brief announcement has just been made that a Paris court martial has condemned to death as a spy Madame N , 37 years old. Her son Noel, sixteen vpnra

old who was accused of being her accomDlice. wan ordered to hn npnt

to a penitentiary colony until he becomes of age. The court believed he was too voune to be held responsible

for his acts.

As the case was not heard in nuh-

lic, only a few details have become known, such as that Madame N 'r

husband was killed at the front in March, 1916, and that the wife soon

started a life that earned her, in the circles she frequented, the name of "The Merry Widow." She soon ran through the money she inherited and, to get more, communicated with a Greek living in Spain, an agent of the spy bureau established in Barcelona by the Germans. When mother and son were arrested, the boy was just about to engage in the aviation service in order to obtain information to be supplied to Germany.

A writer in the Paris Midi identifies the Greek as the head of German propaganda in Spain and director in particular of the service for arranging explosions in factories. He was a regular visitor to a girl's school at Barcelona, where he went to see three little girls whose guardian he was supposed to be. One of them, the youngest, aged about 11, handed over to him, on each visit, several letters which he carried away. These three little girls were French, being the daughters of Madame N. "The Merry Widow" used to pass on any information that she obtained to her son who wrote it to his young sister, placing it in the middle of his letters, which were never really examined, when it was seen that they were lettersf rom a brother to a little sister at school.

War Causes Big Decrease

in Birth in Germany (By Associated Press.) LONDON, June 12. The first three years of war reduced by over two million the number of babies who would have been born in Germany had peace prevailed, says a report of the British Local Government Board. Some 40 percent fewer German babies were born in 1916 than in 1&13. The infant death-rate, which rose to an abnormal height for a time after the outbreak of war, appears to have gradually returned to the pre-war late. The food difficulties have not led to

excessive number of babies d3'ing, at least up till the end of 1916. In the towns where the food shortage vas most acute, the death-rate tended to fall.

Lieutenant Keogh. Lieutenant Grenvllle Temple Keogh, son ofg Judge Keogh of New Rochelle, recently received the Croix de Guerre for bravery on the western front, where he has been for more than two years. He enlisted first with the American ambulance corns and drove
