MONK. Washington, D. C, April 11. If Sen ator Fdraker expected to "get a rise" out of President Roosevelt with his Can ton speech he will be disappointed. The President was as calm and unruffled to day as if he had not heard of such a thing as the Foraker opening gun in. the Ohio campaign. In truth, it was learned through White House sources that Sir. Foraker' speech did not impress the President at all strongly, and instead of making any reply to it, directly or indirectly, thi President will wait until the senator "really says something" before he dips into the Ohio (fight. One man who talked with Mr. Roosevelt during the day was asked his opinion of the speech.. '- "Why I think it was very tame," he . replied. It could not 'be stated authori tatively that he reflected the President's views, but it would .be a safe wager that he did. The peneral comment in Washington on the Forr.ker "keynote" is that it was not as vigorous and forceful as had been anticipated. However, there have been many complimentary references to it, and 'the senator's, friends appear to bo well ' satisfied with it, although they are wait ! iinr with some anxiety to learn what ef fect it had on the Ohio situation;' ". CONNECTICUT SENATE INDORSES ROOSEVELT Mart ford. Conn., April 11. The Sen ate today passed in concurrence the res olution indorsing the administration of President Roosevelt, although . three Democratic senators objected. The ground of objection was that such a resolution was unnecessary. Senator S pell acy, Democrat, said in a speech of protest that "the hero of San Juan Hi'il needs no bolstering up by the general assembly of this state." Other Democratic senators in voting for the resolution said they did so out of courtesy to colleagues who had invited Mr. Bryan to address the body.

That 'is practically the only ngnv tnai is on. Tho mass-meeting supporters claim that, they represent the "old board," the board now in power, and favor the renomina tion of these aldermen as candidates to sueceed themselve. The supporters of the ward-meetings are not, at least on the surface, fight ing the old board at this time.
