The Rich Men are Plotting Against Me BEGINS HIS CAMPAIGN rublic Promised Startling Revel atlans as the Result of Investigation of Measures Taken by Plutocrats Who Want to Defeat Roosevelt's Poll cies at RcpuMkan Omveutioii. (Uy Leased Wire to -The Times.) Washington, D. C, April 5. Pres ident Rooseveit is preparing to follow up the disclosures of the political "conspiracy" that ho made yesterday and the day before with more start ling announcements bearing on the aliased machinations of Harriman, hcarst, Rockefeller and his other arch cnomies. It Is even claimed by th-. president's- friend:; thai the ? 5,000,000 fund feature which was revealed at the while "house yester day will dwindlo Into very small per spective before the president gets through with tho men who aro said to bo planning the defeat of his poli cies at the next republican national convention. "Just ns fast as wo get additional facts, the public shall know thorn," announced one of the president's right-hand men today. Tho Story of Penrose. The first hoi stuff chapter to follow tho developments of yesterday is like ly to como from Senator Ponrose of Pennsylvania. It Is now said that tho tall statesman from Philadelphia was the banqueter who first "gave the snap away" 'by confiding the de tafl of the plot to a supposed . anti-! volt man. When Penrose woko what he had said. The gontliJjtiyit hi formed him that he had lodbe "turned himself inside out" the night before. Then Penrose threw discre tion to the winds, according to the tale, and actually offered to write out a check for $25,000 for the anti Roosevelt fund if he would have it. Tho president's friend, of course, spurned tho filthy lucre and forth with carried tho whole story to the president. It was stated at tho whito house today that results from the hurry-up calls thus far issued to the country havo been very satisfactory to the president and his advisers. The cab inet was in session this forenoon, and it was said to be giving particular attention to tho political phases which aro attracting attention now. Tho intimation was given In some political quarters that some one or more of the cabinet might be selected to voice views of the administration and its position as to some of the matters that have been brought Into so much prominence. The cabinet, with possibly one or two exceptions, believes the president has done the right thing in announc ing to the country that ttj'ore is al ready a rich man's cabal organised to fight his policies in congress and be fore the country. They believe the response from the country will be so prompt, and emphatic as to satisfy doubts that the president knew the wise course and took It. Tho Campaign Just Opened. The white bouse campaign against this cabal, it was again made plain today, has only Just opened. The as surance was given to the correspond ents that they will be kept fully in formed as developments take place which aro calculated to illumine tho workings of the conspiracy In differ ent parts ot the country. A representative of the president, speaking) of the conditions In tho smaller. 8ta1o of the Rocky Mountain and coast regions, "Indicated that he understood that , political , methods ere being, employed there similar to thoWj' ln otheV .'sectipus that wero designed to suppress the Roosevelt policies.

IDEA OF APPEAL Jerome - Will Accept (he Board's Decision TRIAL TO BE RESUMED it-- the "Freedom is Now Certain," is Exultant Assertion of Harry K. Thaw His Family Have Cele. bration of the Partial Victory Won in His Behalf "Freedom is Cer tain," Says the President. (By Leased Wire to The Times.) New York, April 6. District At torney Jerome will not appeal to the appellate division from the decision of tho lunacy commission declaring Harry K. Thaw sane. The trial of Thaw for the murder of Stanford Whito will proceed on Monday, un less the opposition is made by the de fense. Jeromo is through with the lunacy proceedings.. He would not admit this today, but from the best possi ble sources of Information It was learned that he realized that -he bad no warrant for an appeal from the findings of tho commission, and de feat would follow. To all Intents and purposes, Jeromo left the criminal court building today prepared to ar gue tho appeal before the appellate division. He entered the appellate court house fronting on Madison SquaVo and was received by Chief Justicu Patterson In tho latter's chambers. After a few minutes they jjft the court house and walked to tile Man hattan, ' around the coriJoV. They were joined at luncheon by Dr. Allan McLane Hamilton,: the expert upcro Whose opinion Jerome chiefly based bis conviction that Thaw was insane. to Tunt-3 eon with .Chief Justice Pat terson today:'- Our nieettas had ndthl mg to do witn tne maw caBe.-t shall make no application of any kind In tho appellate division today. It would manifestly be improper for me to lunch with Chief Justice Patterson and then proceed from the table Im mediately into his presence and make a motion and an argument." New York, April 5. "Freedom lnow certain." This was the statement today of Harry K. Thaw in the Tombs. Thaw made no effort to disguise his pleasure over the decision of the lunacy commission In declaring him sane. On Monday the jury that has been hearing the Thaw evidence; will be in the court room. Then Justice Fitzger ald will no doubt approve "the finding of the lunacy commission. If the writ is granted to Mr. Jerome, there will be no other course than again to dismiss the jury to be called when the appel late division proceedings are ended. Mrs. Evelyn Necbit Thaw was an early caller at the Tombs today. She ordered her chauffeur to call for her at 11:45 which is the latest hour at which visitors are permitted to remain In the prison in the forenoon. Mrs. Thaw looked bright and cheerful. In celebration of the second wedding anniversary of Harry K. Thaw and Evelyn Nesbit, and of the victorious outcome of the proceedings, before the lunacy commission, the Thaw family had a Jollfheatlon at the Hotel Lorraine last night. A few friends were bidden. As late as 10 o'clock p. m the Thaw chaufleur was dispatched with a car to the Manhattan end of the Brooklyn bridge to, meet a friend of the family and take him to the Lorraine to share in the Jollification.
