The proposition was rejected, however, and Ihe ordinance then, passed In almost the identical shape it came from select branch.

The amendment made by common branch that the section of Water street to be paved by the railroad company be from Mason io Gas alley Instead of Mason alley to Philadelphia street, was concurred la by select branch. An ordinance introduced in common branch by Mr. Schroeder proposes to abolish the erection or maintenance of signs across the sidewalks or highway. It was referred to the highway committee.

It is willing to do what It tan. If called upon, to focus the matter. Railroad Ordinance Passed. Mr. Frey though councils should not by its action force the railroad to moe its warehouses beyond the city limits thc Fetrow farm, as had been lntl- i mated would be done, because the re- suit would be added expense and Inconvenience to shippers.

The erection of the overhead bridge, he believed, was what was principally desired by the Seventh ward people. Ke thought 1 thev would be satisfied without thfl Water street paving being made a pari of the ordinance.

TALKS OF THE SHOOTING Expects to Lmv On Monday For Homo and to Return to Stump Week After Next Bears No Bitterness Toward Assailant. Oct. IS. Colonel Roose velt's condition was so satisfactory to- i night that It was announced at It o'clock that the usuaJ night bul etins of the physicians would not be lsaued-- The passage of the day brought to an end the jerlod within which symptoms of blood poisoning were to be looked for.

Cplone Roosevelt's condition was rlrtually unchanged throughout the Say with no indications of the de-ve'ojment of sepis, the one thins most feared. There still remains the posFlMlity of complications in the thape cf tetanus, pneumonia pr pluer-lsy. I The first visible Impressions uf Colonel Roosevelt on the night he ws shot' In Milwaukee were related tonight from the colonel's own lips. Apparently well on the way toward recovery he was permitted to en-Joy a greater degree of" freedom, and for the first time he gave an account of the happenings of the few hours ter the bullet found its mark. The colonel said that on Monday he expected to leave for Oyster Bay aid hoped to be back In the malting speeches again, week aftr next.

"I feel a lively as a bulldog." said the colonel, by way of preface. He vas witting In a huge leather chair by a window In Mrs. room, adjoining his own. lie was wrapped in a blue bath robe of Turkish toweling, with a steamer rug thrown over his reet to protect him from the autumn breese which was borne in through the open window. What seemed to Impress Colonel Roosevelt most strongly was not lh shooting Itself he seemed to accept Jhat as a thing of the past to be dl.

But he insisted that to make the speech was only what any other man would have done under 'he circumstances. Nothing, Ho Says. "It was nothing nothing." he sail. "I felt a little pain but it was not severe.

When I stretched out my am. oi reached for my manuscript It madJ tne gasp a bit, but that was alL "It was quite amusing," he went on, ''when I reached for my manuscript to see that It had a hole In. It from tne bullet: and there was a hole in epectaele case, 'oo." The cuSoiie! chuckled as he recalled the urpie ue hau felt at his discovery. "Amusing, did you say, colonel?" asked one of his hearers. Well." he Qualified, "It was interesting." Colonel Roosevelt showed no Indication that he had fit the fear of death.

He said he had no means of knowing, as he delivered the speech tits had promised to make, whether he wit wounded fatally, but accepted as a matter of course that he should go on until he had finished. If his strength heid out." But when It was all over, and be had turned away, to go to the hospital, he said, he found It difficult to ke.p his temper when half a men scrambled over the edge of the and asked hUn to shake hands. "They wanted to shake hands," ho said, as though it still surprised him. Didn't they know that it is Impossible for a man who has Just been shot to shake hands with genuine Does Not Mention Schrank. Of the shooting Itself, Colonel R0044-velt had little to say.

Not once did he mention the name of John Schrank, assailant. He talked In an unemotloual way of being- si. as though he was discussing the ease of a man w.th whom he was not acquainted. He sal 1 he bore no bitterness or rancor. In a dispassionate way Colonel Roosevelt spoke of his present condition and speculated upon the chance that he would hae blood poisoning or come other serious complication.

Through him the defense planned to go tar In providing Its contention that Becker had nothing to do with the murder but was himself the victim of a conspiracy. But much of Sullivan's story wa untojd. That part which Justice Goff admitted was based upon testimony already given by Rose. WeUber, Vallori and Scheppat Bulllvan not only denied portions of their testimony but declared that after the murder Wetobei nd Rose told him they were golnfr to "frame Becker and turn him over to the district attorney." They told Pullivan, according to his testimony, that they "would frame Becker, Waldo or the mayor." If necessary to save their owri lives.

Colonel Roosevelt's manner changed. Although he had been cautioned not to forget that he was far from a well man and to guard against excitement, his face flushed and his gestures -became more vigorous.

"They'll have to be short speeches at first, I suppose," he etild, "but I'll make some good ones." The colonel paused for a moment He-set his Jaw hard and clinched, his fist fur the only time during the interview. "I ask no quarter," he said. "It is gmufing to uee the predicament of Governor Marshall," he added with a laugh. "The governor has been making his campaign on the assertion that I was not at Fan Juan Hill.

Pittsburgh. Oct. 18. Wet weather campaigning brought Governor Woodrow Wilson a series of merry Incidents today as he traveled through West Virginia and Western Pennsylvania.

Only at Pittsburgh tonight did he speak indoors, but throughout the day the Democratic nominee faced a mkrn9. underneath which "I have been paid a splendid compliment," he told the crowd. "I have appeared to you by way of the Jail, but I escaped incarceration; I think onw of my friends had a writ of habeas corpus which enabled me to be here." The governor found a big turnout everywhere notwithstanding the drizzls of rain which fell most of the day. The nominee fovered a series of subjects In his speeches. At Wheeling htf was loudly applauded whon- he said he would not discuss the third party while Colonel Roosevelt was in the hospital, He began to discuss the trusts and.

monopolies, but stopped short Spares Third Party, "I am a little hampered." he said, "in discussing this part of the question, because I have denied myself the privilege at present of discussing anything that concerns the third party. As Ions as Mr. Roosevelt Is confined to the hospital in Chicago I shall have nothing to say about the third party. But I want to say this about the Democratic party program: The thing that has created the trusts, that has created the monopoly Is unrerulated, unfair competition. If we can only bring It about that newcomers shall have a free field, then we can take care of these gentlemen in the trusts, because then the most Intelligent competitor will fet the market, and the little man can grow big Instead of making himself big by the legislation of congress and by special favors from the government." The wildest and most sustained demonstration that Governor Wilson ha had In his campaign greeted him at Duquesne garden.

When he rose to speak there were great cheers, but the applause was almost continuous throughout the speech of 45 minutes. The governor's address was a series of short sentences and epigrams the enthusiastic crowd constantly punctuated with applause. Once crowd rose in the middle of the speech and began a demonstration that lasted for several minutes. BEGIN MAYOR LUNN'S TRIAL Little N. Oct.
