EX-PRESIDENT SAILS AWAY TO Tt> BE IN AFRICA A YEAR Then He Will Travel and Speak in Europe--Three Skilled Naturalista , and His Son Kermlt Accom- , > pany Him. .» New York.--Theodore Roosevelt, eat- president of the United States, sailed out of New Tork harbor Tuesday on the steamer Hamburg of the Hamburg- American line on the way to his much- heralded hunting trip in British East Africa. ' On the dock was n large assemblage of Mr. Roosevelt's friends, who had gathered to bid him God speed, and who cheered him as he stood at the rail of the steamer waving his hand and smiling with delight. Besids him stood the three men selected from hundreds of applicants to accompany him and assist him in collecting the specimens of African fauna which he hopes to send back for the enrichment of the Smithsonian institution. These fortunate individuals were Maj. Ed­ gar A. Mearns, J. Loring Alden and Edmund Heller. They comprise the Smithsonian's expedition.

Journey Aerott Uganda. Leaving Nairobi la October, the party will proceed by the Uganda railway to Port Plorenoe, on the shores of Lake Victoria Nyansa, whew a short stop will be made; then a steamer will be taken to Entebbe, ISO miles away. There a caravan will be formed and the journey across Uganda to the Nile will be begun. It is expected that the White Nile will be reached about the first of the year 1910. Lake Albert Nyanza will be touched at Kibira. In a general way. .the course of the Nile will be followed to Gondokoro, and thence to Khartoum. At this city Mr. R,oosevelt and Kermit will be joined by Mrs. Roosevelt and they will continue down the Nile slowly to Cairo, visiting many points of interest on the way. To Speak In European Capitals. Plans for the remainder of the ex- president's two years' tour have not been decided upon definitely, but the time will be spent in Europe, and sev­ eral matters of Importance have beep announced. He will visit Berlin at tibie invitation of Emperor William and while there will deliver an address upon the one hundredth anniversary of the founding of the University of Berlin. . From Germany he will go to France and deliver an address at the Sor- bonne. It has not been learned how long Mr. Roosevelt intends to stay in Berlin and Paris.

Mr. Roosevelt will defray the ex­ penses of himself and his son on the African trip, but those of the scien­ tists and the cost of preparing the specimens and shipping them to Amer­ ica will be paid out of a fund secured for the purpose by the Smithsonian institution. * One of the objects of Mr. Roosevelt in taking this trip is for the purpose of collecting material for writing sev­ eral books regarding his experiences. During last summer he contracted with Charles Scribner's Sons, of New York, giving that firm all the rights for the serial and book-form publication of whatever he might write on his visit to Africa. It is said that the contract price agreed upon is $1 per word, but thie "never has been verified. No Slaughter of Animals. Even if the British colonial govera- ment'should Offer to throw open to Mr. Roosevelt and his companions the Af­ rican game preserves under its con­ trol, the ex-president will refuse to take advantage of this opportunity. Like other true sportsmen, fee believes that the utmost protection thould be given to wild animals on reservations and that permission to kill them should not be given or accepted under any circumstances unless, possibly, when predatory animals are becoming too numerous. , Moreover, the killing of animals for sport is not the main object of his trip. Mr. Roosevelt hopes to send back to the Smithsonian institution two adult specimens, one of each sex, and a specimen of their young, of animals he meets with on the Dark Continent Beyond this the killing will be lim­ ited to the demands of the commis­ sary. \/ _ mi. i imViririrr ini-MViVi'*r "r- ' ' Female Agent Negotiates for Return of Lad--Parent Refuses to §•• - ? Say Whether Ho . Pakl.^.^K $10,000 Ransom. ^ • Cleveland, O.--Little Willie Whitla, who has caused the police of the en­ tire country endless worry since he was kidnaped from school in Sharon last Thursday, was returned to his father at the Hollenden hotel here Monday night at 8:30 o'clock and taken home. In compliance with an agreement entered into between the kidnaped boy's father and an agent of the kidnapers the boy was placed on 'a street car on the outskirts of the city and started to the hotel short­ ly after eight o'clock. Two boys, G. W. Ramsey and Ed­ ward Mahoney, recognized the lad on the car and taking him in charge con­ ducted him to his father who was in waiting according to a prearranged plan which he had followed at the dic­ tation of the kidnapers. The boy wan­ dered about the .hotel lobby unan­ nounced for several minutes asking bellboys for his father before the lat­ ter knew his son was in the big foyer. The moment the anxious parent heard that a strange boy was in the hotel sauntering in aimless fashion, he rushed across the lobby, grasped him in his arms and smothered his face with kisses. An attempt had been made to dis­ guise the lad. He wore a pair of smoked glasses and a large tan cap which was pulled down over his ears and the father said it would haVe been difficult to have recognized the boy in such a garb had he passed him on the street. Willie is in perfect health. He says that he has been well treated and ever since his capture has been constantly ta doors. He believes he was taken from Sharon to Warren and thonce to Newcastle, Pa. It is his opinion, expressed in a happy schoolboy way, that. he was in Ashtabula on Satur­ day night at the time his father was to leave his $10,000 in Flatiron park. Whitla senior refused to state whether he had paid the ransom or not. He said that he received a let­ ter from the kidnapers at his home in Sharon saying that if he called at a confectionery stord in the East end of Cleveland he would be told how to secure his boy unharmed and "well fed." About two o'clock Monday afternoon he went to a candy store in the EaBt end. With him he carried the $10,000, expecting that it would be demanded of him there. He was met by a wom­ an who detailed to him the terms of the kidnapers. With all the eagerness of a distracted parent Whitla agreed to them immediately. Detectives in his employ say that he paid the money, but on this point tT;e father declines to commit himself. The kidnaper, according to Willie, was cheerful enough when he brought the boy to the car line. The mysteri­ ous one and the youngster skipped in schoolboy fashion toward the trolley line, jesting in the meantime. A few rods from the car line the man stopped the boy* Pulling a pair of smoked glasses from his pocket he adjusted them to the lad's head with the remark: .You'll look better in these." The sides of the cap were pulled carefully over the boy's ears A slip, which Willie was to hand to the conductor, was put in the boy's pocket. It read: "Send this boy to the Hollenden hotel double quick. Willie says the man told him that if anybody asked him who took him to the car line to tell them it was "Mr. Jones." "Just tell them your name is Jones, if you want to," said the kidnaper. "All riftht, Mr. Jones," answered Willie. Presently a car came into vie* tuiu the mysterious Mr. Jones drew the boy closer to him. "Well, Willie, you are going down­ town now and you will see your papa pretty soon," he said. That was the last Willie saw of his abduclor. Despite Mr. Whitla's refusal to say whether he paid the $10,000 for the re­ covery of the boy the police are cer­ tain that he did. There is a report that even a larger amount was paid. The police have obtained from the boy a description of his abductors and will "make every effort to capture the kidnapers although it is believed they left the city as soon as they had lib; erated the boy. It Is understood that the boy's fa­ ther was compelled to promise that he would do everything in his power to prevent prosecution of the kidnapers, should they be caught, and it is prob­ able that even if they are arrested they will escape punishment.
