The great multitude seemed to "go crasy about Mr. Roosevelt. So eager ware the throngs to catch a glimpse of Mr. Roosevelt that the hundreds of police felt celled upon to crack a few Italian craniums ss an example. In the few hours that Air.

Roosevelt spent here he waa given many evidences of his personal popularity with tbe Italian people, and of the admiration whioh they have for his distinguished services to his country.
