"SPLEIO --T. R.
That's His Comment on Out
come of Suit.
ALL CONCERNED ARE PLEASED
Colonel Says He Didn't Seek Revenge,
but Aimed to Stop Further Slander
ing Editor Newett Commended
For His Action on Stand.
Marquette. Mich., June 2. Delighted
with the vindication he received by the
acknowledgment of George A. Newett,
editor of the Ishporalng Irou Ore, thai
he could not prove that Mr. Itoosevell.
was ever Intemperate or addicted tc
Intemperate habits, Theodore Roose
volt and his party left for home. Be
fore leaving Mr. Roosevelt said ho had
desired vindication, not revenge, bul
that there never again can be raised
the question of intemperance where he
is concerned.
With the award by the Jury, at the
suggestion of Mr. Huusovelt, of dam-,
ages of (J cents the libel suit of the
erstwhile president came to n close.
The action of Mr. Newett In admit-1
ting on the witness stand that he coulu
not prove, bis assertion that Mr. Roose I
velt was Intemperate and that he wa! '
convinced from the testimony and th
depositions of Mr. Roosevelt's wit
nesses that the assertion was not 1
founded on fact lias brought him com
mendation from many sources.
T. R.'s Stand Admired.
On the other hand, the action of Mr
Roosevelt In accepting the admission
of Mr. Newett gracefully and disclaim
ing any desire for revenge or pecun
lary benefit has brought forth expres
sions of admiration. The action of Mr
Roosevelt In asking that only nominal
damages bo awarded was made at the
moment Mr. Newett admitted that he
did not believe that Mr. Roosevelt was
Intemperate and that he was not Jus
tified in printing what he did.
"The verdict was perfectly splendid,"
said Mr. Roosevelt. "I did not go lntc
this case for money, but for vindica
tion. I made my reputation the issue
because I wished once for all thor
oughly nnd comprehensively to deal
with these slanders. I have achieved
my purpose, and I am content."
The editor in vindicating Mr. Roose
velt said In part:
"I am unwilling to continue to assert
that Mr. Roosevelt actually and in fact
uraim 10 excess, as a puuusner or a
newspaper I have never knowingly
done Injustice to any man, and neither
I nor any of my attorneys is willing
now to make or continue the assertion
of an unjust charge against the plain
tiff in this case. We have reached the
conclusion that to continue expressly
or impliedly to assert that Mr. Roose
velt drank to excess or actually became
Intoxicated as set forth in the article
would do him an injustice."

nourishment, was found hunched up
on n mattress spread on the floor of
the basement In which ho lived at 431
East Eighty-third street.
Hy the neighbors, who watched hlg
eccentric movements, ho was looked
upon as a genius. Ho had told them
of his substantial ancestry and pros
perous relatives, who sent him a week
ly remittance from a little German
town, but ho lamented his inability to
go back to them as the possessor of
the fame ho set out to achieve.
When ho moved to the little base
ment apartment six yeara ago Mr. Jo
nicke brought with him a comploto
artist's outfit. His pictures were at
tractive, and in the first few months
of his dwelling there well dressed
young women came to him for lessons
In painting.
With him to his meager home Mr.
Jcnicke brought also a battered grand
piano and two violins.
It was his playing of these Instru
ments that brought the neighbors into
his dim little abode In the earlier days
of his residence there. They all were
In the place when a policeman broke
in the basement door and found him
dead.
The neighbors learned about two
years ago that Jenlcko was suffering
supposedly from tuberculosis. Ho re
fused the aid they offered him. Let
ters in his pockets showed that small
amounts of money came to him from
Mrs. Obrlst Jenlcko of Wittenburg.
Germany.
On the lloor alongside the mattress
on which Jenlcko was found dead was
half a stale roll and a tin cup half filled
with water. Those who looked at the
body declared they believed tho man
had starved to death. Tho case was
reported to the coroner for investigation.
