'V>» ' SERVED A3 FOOD DOGS Caches Destroyed by Ice Floes, Com­ pelling Members of Party to Sub- eiet on Such Provisions aa-> 4 Presented Themselves. ^ New York.--The United States now holds the record of "furtherest north," 87 degrees six minutes. This feat was accomplished by Com­ mander Robert E. Peary, of the Unit­ ed States navy. The intrepid arctic explorer failed to reach the north pole, as he had confidently hoped to do with his spe­ cially constructed vessel, the Roose­ velt, but he penetrated nearer to the pole than the duke of Abri^zi's expedition, which, had held the Arctic record, 86 degrees 34 minutes. What Commander Peary did and his ex­ periences durjb&g the past year in the frozen north are rather briefly, bat jpertainly vividly, summarized In a communication received Friday night from Peary by Herbert L- Bridgeman, secretary of the Peary Arctic club. This communication follows: "Hopedale, Labrador, via Twlllln- gate, N_.„ E., Nov. 2.--Roosevelt win­ tered north coast Grant Land some­ what north Alert winter quarters. Went north with sledges February via Hecla and Columbia. Delayed by open water between 84 and 85 de­ grees. Beyond 85 six days. Gale dis­ rupted ice destroyed caches, cut off communication with supporting bod­ ies and drifted due east. Reached 87 degrees six minutes, north latitude over ice, drifting steadily eastward. Returning ate eight dogs. Drifted eastward -delayed by open water, reached north coast Greenland in straightened conditions. Killed musk oxen and returned along Greenland coast to ship. Two supporting par­ ties driven on north coast Greenland. One rescued by me in' starving con­ dition. After one week recupera­ tion on Roosevelt sledged west, com­ pleting north coast Grant Land and reached other land, near one hun­ dredth meridian. Homeward voyage incessant battle with ice, storms and head winds. Roosevelt magnificent ice fighter and sea boat. No or illness on expedition." Did Not Expect News. Alter furnishing press the contents of Commander Peary's report, Mr. Bridgeman said that the receipt of any news from {he explorer now was quite a surprise to him, because he had supposed it. had become too late in the season for Commander Peary to send news of. his venture. Mr. Bridgeman added that the message spoke for itself ancP that since he did not know more of the results of Commander Peary's effort to reach the pole than the public did, he could hardly comment upon the dispatch. There was little doubt, however, he said, that Commander Peary was coming home. This seems to be borne out by'the routing of the dis­ patch. Hopedale or Hoffenthal is a Moravian mission station on the east coast of Labrador. Twillingate Is a port on the east coast of New Found- land. Mr. Bridgeman said the mes­ sage was probably mailed by Com­ mander Peary from Hopedale tQ the most accessible cable point. 8orry He Missed Pole. Lenox, Mass. -- Morris K. Jes- sup, of New' York, who aided Com­ mander Peary generously in fitting out his expedition and who is at his country residence in Lenox, said Fri­ day night that he had just heard from Secretary Bridgeman, who read to him over the telephone the message which he had received from Com­ mander Peary. "It would be useless to deny that am disappointed that Commander Peary failed to reach the pole," said Mr. Jessup, "but I am glad to know that he went so far and especially that he Is returning safe. Until we get more details of the voyage It will be fruitless to discuss It more partic­ ularly." FIVE TRUE BILL3 FOR PEONAGE Newman, Ga* Manufacturers Indicted by the Grand Jury. Atlanta, Ga.--Five indictments for peonage against well-known manufac­ turers were returned by the . federal grand jury here Friday as the result of a special investigation by Assistant Attorney General Charles Russell, of the department of justice In Washing1 ton.

Given Limit for 8lngle Violation off Valentine Anti-Trust Law, and Al­ lowed Usual Time for Appeal. Flndlay, . O. -- la the probate court here Monday, Judge Banker overruled the motion filed by the at­ torneys of the Standard Oil company for a new trial and imposed a fihe of $5,000 and costs of the prosecution in the recent suit against the Standard held here. On motion of the defense the court ordered that the defendant company be allowed 40 dayB in which to prepare and file its bill of exceptions in the case. On motion by the Standard at­ torneys, Joseph O. Troup, of Bowling Green, O., and S. H. Tolles, of Cleve­ land, the sentence Imposed was or­ dered suspeded for a period of (0 days for the purpose of filing a peti­ tion on error in this case. It was also ordered that the criminal informa­ tions pending against John D. Rocke­ feller, the Buokeye Pipe Line company and the Manhattan Oil company be continued until the next term of court. .. \ The fine Imposed by Judge Banker was the limit for one offense, though the law stipulates that each day that tho illegal combination business is carried on constitutes a separate of­ fense. Taking this view of the stat*. utes, it was possible for the court to impose an aggregate of fines amount­ ing to over $6,000,000. Cs a OEATH OF JAME8 D.

PRAIRIE FIRE 18 DESTRUCTIVE Flames Sweep Path Seven Milee Wide in North Oakota. Dickinson, N. D.--Reports coming In about a prairie fire which swept the country south of here Sunday, show It was the worst fire of the kind in 17 years. The fire started north of Stillwater, and swept southeast, burn­ ing a path seven miles wide, going by the way of Harkens' ranch, aad thence toward Serin. Among the heaviest losers were the owners of the Galligan ranch, where buildings, hay and horses were destroyed. The Valley ranch lost its sheep stock, and the D. Z. ranches lost 900 tons of hay. On the Nester and Krenz places, just newly started, buildings,, cattle, horses, hogs and machinery were cleaned away and some of the em­ ployes were fatally burned. . Notorious French Count Still Hopes for Reconciliation and Continues to Write Love Letters. Paris -- Three - Americans have sent challenges to Count Bonl de Castellane demanding that he fight them because of the insults he has offered to American womanhood. Neither Count Boni nor his friends will give out the names of the chal­ lengers. It is reported that the count was about to accept the first challenge when the second and the third arrived in quick succession. Count Boni and his friends were Struck by the unanimity with which -the notes insisted that the fight should be no "French duel." When Count Boni consulted an au­ thority as to the nature of American duels he was alarmed JtoC hear that most of them end fatally, and that none of them are bloodless. Despite the emphatic declaration by Maitre Cruppi in the opening address of the trial of the divorce suit, Count |Boni de Castellane, has not completely |&bandoned hope of a reconciliation. Since the suit for divorce began the count's conduct has been based upon the belief that his wife, who for ten years submitted to so many indigni­ ties, must yield in the end. It is now disclosed that the count never cease<f writing love letter's to his wife, in which he begged for a reconciliation, and in which he anathematized the American lawyers under whose influ­ ence he charged she was acting. It seems certain that Count Boni's defense to the charge of infidelity will be "unproved," and that he, conse­ quently, will demand an inquiry and the production of witnesses for the purpose of prolonging the , case, his idea being to accomplish a reconcilia­ tion. 800NERS ENTITLED TO CLAIMS Bishop Nicholson De£0*.'.

Washington.--Further reports from agents of the Interior department who superintended the opening Monday of the Walker Lake Indian reservation in Nevada have convinced Secretary "litchcock that the infractions of the regulations governing the opening were not serious enough to warrant a recommendation in favor of Invalidat­ ing it. Regardless of the action of "soon- erg" la crossing the line before the signal, the act of congress ordering that the reservation be thrown open to settlement [has not been violated. That act did aot prescribe that per­ sons shoald not enter the reservation in advance of the signal, and there is »o law under which these persons may be punished. \ Plllplnos te Have Congress.

Inquest Into Atlantic City Dieeete' Started by Coroner. Atlantic City; N. J.---The inquest into the . Thoroughfare disaster of Sunday was begun Thursday by Coroner Gaskill and after the exam­ ination of several witnesses an ad­ journment was taken until Monday morning at ten o'clock. The .sudder termination came as a surprise, but it was stated later that this step was taken for the purpose of summoning additional witnesses and to also give the experts who are to testify an op­ portunity to prepare maps and other necessary papers. . None of the offi­ cials of the railroad company was called. The most important testimony, thus far adduced was that of Bridge Tend­ er Stewart and Mrs. Elizabeth Dris- coll. The former testified that the grooves in the rails over the draw did not*always connect, this being the case in hot weather, and it was then necessary to knock them in place. Mrs. Driscoll said that the train was running at a high speed when it struck the trestle, and another wit­ ness satd that there was no apparent slackening of speed when the cars rushed on to the bridge. Daniel Stewart, the aged brides tender, testified as to letting the yacht Sinbad through the draw. After the yacht had passed he placed the red flags, or danger signals. He said the towerman relocked the bridge and then he (Stewart) went to the center and ^relocked the rails, raising them about an inch and one-half above the other rails. He said that the rails were down and fast and he gave the signal, "All Is right" and the tower- n^an pulled the lever.

W/i Havana.---It is the intention of the provisional government to have the American troops here make extensive practice marches throughout the coun­ try. This should not be interpreted as a threatening demonstration; the step is taken for its moral effect on the restoration of confidence, tyt a general order Gen. J. Franklin Bell enjoins all officers and enlisted men of the American army of occupation to manifest all possible courtesy to­ wards Cubans of all parties, and to take no active part in the suppression of disorder, except in extreme emer­ gencies rendering interference for the protection of life and property necessary. The duties of the Ameri­ can forces are, generally speaking, limited to the tendering of good offices for the prevention of friction between ooaflicting elements. Upon the recommendation of Carlos Garcia y Velez, inspector of public institutions, San Lazaro hospital, in which there are several hundred lep­ ers, probably will be shortly re­ moved to an island off the northern coast of Matanzas province. The re­ moval of this hospital has long been desired, but the project has been op­ posed by the wealthy private corpora* tion by which it is controlled. Americans on the Isle of Pines are excited over the arrest and imprison­ ment of a countryman named Holmes- burg; on the charge of cutting down, a tree on the boundary line of his own property.
