NEW YORK. Fe. 23. The North At
laiitJc frvMl to the biff KroRprinz "tt H
helm Ave days of weather thRt tcsU-d
Prince HenrvV. m log. But the Prince
t-houcd his sailorly qualities, and never
missed a meal. Eaih afternoon and even
ing found hhn in the smoking-room, and
In spit of wind, waves and spray, he spent
hours on lh bridge. The voyage was
without special incident. Prince Henry
was a. mopt democratic passenger, and
the hip company ol his follow voyagers
united in declailng him an amiable, charm
ing and unassuming gentleman.
HLs royal highness and party occupied
a table in a far corner, or sort of wing
of the main dining saloon. A partition ran
half way across, hiding a part of the
roval table from a jwrtion of the .rmin
dining-room, but the Prince requested that
the greater part of the partition be taken
down, and the wide opening thus made
was transformed into an arch and deco
rated. The change made the Prince's cor
rer seem more like a part of the main
riin!mr saloon, and the passengers facing
his corner at meals could see him and
his party plainly.
Captain Rlchter had offered the Prince
the captain's large table in the center of
the grand saloon, but his royal highness
did not care to cause the regular patrons
of the liner who had been assigned to
those seats, any Inconvenience and de
clined to change.
Every morning after breakfast the
Prince took hLs constitutional around the
drck two or three times among the pas
bengers. In fact, he was throughout the
vovage thoroughly democratic.
An artist for an illustrated weekly had
been sent by his paper to accompany the
Prince. He was pasting where the Prince
sat in the smoking-room Tuesday night
when his nightie hailed him, took his
hand and Invited him to sit at the table
with the royal party, where he chatted
for nearly an hour.
Captain Rlchter. commander of the
Kroiif.rlnz. had hoped to make a record
trip, but the weather was against him.
He did not lo.ve the bridge, except at
short intervals, during the entire voyage.
Prince Henry spent much of his time each
day on the bridge. When the captain
cxpiessed his disappointment because he
could not reach New York early Satur
day, the Prince took occasion to compli
ment him on the masterful way in which
he had handled his ship, and the speed he
had made under such adverse conditions.
Tueedaj the Prince went on a tour of
inspection of the ship with the captain
and the ship's surgeon. He visited the
tteerage and second-class passengers and
examined their quarters.
MuKle on the VojnRO.
One of the most enjoyable features of
the voyage was the excellent music In
uddltion to the regular band belonging to
the ship, the mulc corps of the Second
Mastrcsen division, containing SS pieces,
was on board. This is one of the great
military bands of Germany, and came on
the Kronprlnz to join the Hohenzollern.
Thursday night at dinner the band of the
Kalers yacht furnished the music, inter
mingling German and American airs.
"Yankee Doodle" and "Dixie" were
played, creating great enthusiasm. The
royal party, with the Prince at the head
of the table, cheered heartily, as did all
the German passengers. At the request
of Prince Henry, "Yankee Doodle" was
rendered again, and it was no sooner
jlnlshed than a request came from the
same source for a repetition of "Dixie."
One American wondered if the Prince
knew the meaning and history of the two.
"Indeed, he does," said several American
voices.
Friuay night the Prince left his own
table In the smoking-room early and
Joined that occupied by George A. Armour
and Allison Vincent Armour, of Chicago;
Robert Bonner and Archie Harman, of
New York, and Spencer Eddy, of the
United States Legation at Constantinople.
Allison Armour had been introduced to the
Prince as a yachting man, and this
Lrought the whole party together on com
mon ground. Prince Henry sat convers
ing with this party of Americans for two
hours. He remarked that he had always
desired to hear some genuine American
plantation songs, ard hoped he would have
the opportunity before he returned to
Germany.
Saturday morning he invited 3Ir. Ar
mour and party, with whom he had spent
the evening before, to take a look through
the ship, and he explained every part of
the machinery to them as an expert. Not
one of the party hnd said a word about It
being Wnshlngton'r birthday. After the
hour of inspection the Prince invited them
to his room, where he opened champagne.
"Now, gentlemen of America." he siid,
"let us drink to George Washington."
ihestormthRt stayed with the Kronprinz
all the way across the Atlantic Saturday
morning changed the pitching motion of
the ship te a terrible roll. Everything
In the ship that was loose tumbled about,
and It was difficult and dangerous for the
passengers to move.
In tin Miclxt of a Gnle.
At the concert after the captain's dinner
Saturday night, most of the amusement
was afforded by several members of the
band falling over as they were playing.
One singer was held on his feet by a
steward, and he had to be braced part of
the time by the other stewards. The pi
ano had to be made more secure with
ropes and two men steadied it. The pas
sengers sal holding themselves securely In
the stationary chairs.
The Prince put his autograph on 10 of
the concert programmes to be auctioned
off for the benefit of the sailors. The lowest-priced
one brought S3T. and the high
est JSJ. Six hundred and twenty-live dol
lars was raised from the sale, but the
auctloreer's energies were all exhausted
in holding fast rather than In the use of
his voice. The Prince sat through the
concert and applauded with enthusiasm.
Saturday the Prince sent word to the
five American newspaper men on board
that ho would see them In the afternoon.
Baron Seckendorff. the Prince's chlef-of-staff.
made the presentation, and the
Prince shook hands heartily with each of
them. Among other things he discussed
with the newspaper representatives -were
wireless telegraphy and its development
and application In the future.
At the time the ship was nearlng Nan
tucket, and when communication with
that station was established, the Prince
sent the following telegram:
"To President Roosevelt. Washington:
Hope state of health Master Roosevelt fa
vorably progressing. Wish speedy recov
ery. Permit me to congratulate you and
American Nation on today's commemora
tion of Washington's birthday. Sorry to
disappoint you through late arrival
caused by very heavy, persistent westerly
gales, which made faster progress Impos
sible, even for this beautiful vessel. Look
ing forward to meeting you.
"HENRY, Prince of Prussia."
President to the Prince.
"WASHINGTON, Feb, 23, To Prince
Henry's message of greeting, sent from
the Kronprinz, off Nantucket, the Presi
dent replied:
"White House. Feb. 23. Prince Henry
of Prussia, the Hohenzollern. New York
City: Accept my heartiest greetings on
your safe arrival. I thank you for your
message. In the name of the American
people I welcome you. and I look forward
to meeting you personally tomorrow.
"THEODORE ROOSEVELT."
Jealousy of Eiicrlnnd.
LONDON. Feb. 24. The papers this
morning published editorials in a some
what satirical vein on the enthusiasm of
the reception accorded Admiral Prince
Henry of Prussia by a democratic nation.
The papers concede that Prince Henry
fills the role of "velvet glove" with a suc
cess equal to that with which he Mils the
role of the "mailed fist."
The Fleet Illuminated. m
NEW YORK, Feb. 23. The four ships j
of Admiral Evans' rquadron were prettily i
illuminated tonight. The battle-ship 1111-
nois, at the head of the fleet, had her j
name in electric lights across the bridge,
In letters two feet high. Along either side j
of the ship, at a height, equal to the top !
of the house, she displayed in lights the J
words. "Welcome, Prince Henry." Along
the rail from bow to stern, to the top ot '
her military masts and up and down the
tops of her funnels, were strings of high
power incandescent lamps. The showing
made" by the Cincinnati was the best in
the squadron, excelling that of the flag
ship. The lights were carried up her
masts to the truck, and out on either arm
of her long signal arm. The effect was a
giant cross of lire with an Illuminated
base, and the whole, standing out against
the darkness, made a most effective pic
ture. The lights were turned on at 7 and
extinguished at 9 o'clock.
ARCHBISHOP CORRIGAN HURT
Stumbled Into n Hole In St. Patrick's
Cathedral.
NEW YORK. Feb. 23. It has been made
public that Archbishop Corrignn Is con
fined to hLs room with painful Injuries
which he received Thursday evening last
at St. Patrick's Cathedral. Workingmen
have been erecting a wooden partition in
the rear of the building, prior to tearing
out the permanent wall and joining the
cathedral with the Kelley memorial, which
Is being erected.
It is the archbishop's custom to enter the
cathedral for private elevotlon about 8
o'clock In the evening. On the day when
he received his Injuries, workmen had left
unguarded a hole In the floor. The arch
bishop stumbled Into this. He caught
himself when he had slipped through the
floor up to his arms. Very few persons
were In the cathedral at the time. The
archblphop managed to get back :o his
residence. He was seriously bruised and
shaken up. and his physician was called
in. He discovered that the archbishop's
right ankle had been badly wrenched.
There are also some ugly scratches on his
body.
The archbishop could not officiate at any
of the services at the cathedral today. He
has been forbidden to leave the house until
Tuesday next.
DEMOCRATIC LOYALTY.
Bryan Xot In Sympathy "With the
Manhattan Club.
TOLEDO. O.. Feb. 23. William J. Bryan
was in the city tonight, while en route to
Columbus to consult with Ohio Democratic
leaders tomorrow. When asked to give
his views upon the Manhattan Club meet
ing at New York last night he replied:
"The Manhattan Club will haw to sup
port the Democratic ticket at least once
before It w 111 take any active part in shap
ing the policy of that party. In the cam
paign of ISM the Manhattan Club marched
with a band to the Republican headquar
ters as evidence of its sympathy with that
party."
V.'hen asked what he thought of Mr.
Watterson's opinion that t'he question of
dealing with trusts would be the principal
plank in the next National Democratic
platform. Mr. Bryan said:
"It would be impossible to write a plat
form until Issues develop, but it ought not
to be a matter of doubt that Democratic
principles would be applied to all the Is
sues, and that the planks would be writ
ten by those whose loyalty to the party Is
not under suspicion."

PHILrYDELPHIA. Feb. 23. The Phila

through the Associated Press, came into
direct tele-graphic touch with the country
at large for the first time eince 4:10 o'clock
Friday afternoon. This was accomplished
through the herculean efforts of the me
chanical forco of the Western Union Tel
egraph Company in restoring to working
condition a number of wires between
Philadelphia and Wilmington, Del., which
had been prostrated by the fierce sleet
storm of Friday. The telegraph officials
concentrated their efforts In closing this

as they realized that this would quickest

establish communication with New York.
This opened connection to Washington,
which city was in telegraphic connection
with New York by the circuitous route
via Pittsburg, Chicago and Buffalo.
One object In getting the wires in work
ing order to Baltimore Is the facilitating
of the handling of the train on which
Prince Henry will travel to Washington.
The Pennsylvania Company is to covey
the Prince to Washington on a special
train leaving Jersey City at 1 A. M. Mon
day. This train will be run without the
aid of the telegraph from New York, to
Philadelphia, but from here to Washing
ton will have the advantage of wires.
The track will be free of traffic between
here and Jersey City, but as an addi
tional precaution a pilot engine will be
sent over the road ahead of the official
train.
The various telegraph and telephone
routes lending Into Philadelphia, with the
exception of the re-established route be
tween Philadelphia and Baltimore, are yet
in practically as bad condition as they
were Saturday. Saturday the Associated
Press placed a working force at Wilming
ton, Del., and there received the news or
the Jay. which was then forwarded to
Philadelphia by train. By this means the
full details of the sensational encounter
between Senators Tillman and McLaurin,
the report of the great lire in New York
and the McGovern-SulIlvan fight, and the
latest news regarding Prince Henry, were
obtained for the Philadelphia newspapers
In time for publication this morning.
Never In the history of the telegraph
was the prostration of the wires in this
locality so complete. Within a radius of
CO miles hundreds of poles were broken
down by rain on the heavily Ice-coated
wires and the high winds. The Western
Union officials are of the opinion that
communication will be restored tomorrow
on the route which skirts the division of
the Pennsylvania Railway.
The sun shone brightly today, and the
weather tonight is clear, with moderate
temperature. Large forces of men are at
work in the city, repairing the wires of
the street-car and electric-light companies
and wires of the city's fire alarm and po
lice circuits.

About an hour was spent by the Prince

WHY THE PRINCE COMES.
nia Aid de Cnmp Explains the Object
of HN Vlnlt.
NEW YORK, Feb. 23. Prior to his de
parture from Germany. It was ofllclally
announced that Prince Henry would not
bo Interviewed, and today he adhered
strictly to this determination. Whatever
the Prince has to say for publication will
be given out by a member of his staff.
Captain von Mueller, aid de camp to
the German Emperor, who Is authorized
to speak not only for Prince Henry but
In a measure tc voice the Emperor's
own views, said today to an Associated
Press representative. In explanation of
the Prince's visit:
"When the President, on the inquiry
of the German Emperor If Miss Roose
velt would perform the ceremony of
christening his American-built yacht, had
given his consent in a most gracious,
graceful manner, HLs Majesty resolved to
show his regard for the President by
hrving himself represented by a Prince
of his house on the occasion of the
launching. In contemplating this cour
tesy, the Emperor remembered the pleas
ant relations between Prince Henry and
Admiral Dewey and Rear-Admiral Ev
ans, and also recalled that his brother,
on his return from China, hid expres-ed
a strong wish to visit the United State's.
This desire, however, could not be grati
fied at that time. Moreover, the Em
peror was influenced by the fact that
Prince Henry, whenever he was abroad,
had always won the admiration ind es
teem of those with whom he was brought
in contact, and had always succeeded in
bringing a tone of kindness, based on
mutual esteem, in the international rela
tions. This, I think, will Indicate the
feelings that actuated thc Emperor in
the choice of his brother as his repre
sentative on this pleasant occasion.
"The Prince Is very grateful that the
Emperor selected him for this mission.
He is delighted to make the acquaintance
of the great American Nation at last
and enjoy the honor -of meeting the ex
cellent man at the head of It. It had been
only the stern command of duty which
prevented him from visiting the New
World after his return from East China."
AVhen Captain von Mueller's attention
was called to the various reports regard
ing the friction which it wts alleged had
arisen between Prince Henry nnd Ad
miral Dewey at a dinner given bv the
former in Hong Kong, he laughingly re
plied: "Oh, well, a good many versions of that
incident, and all of them wrong, have
been printed. I happened to be at that
time the personal ild de camp to the
Prince. The truth of the matter Is this,
and I speak authoritatively:
"In the harbor of Hong Kong the Prince
had tendered a dinner to the commanders
of the v'carels at that time in the port.
On that occasion the Prince drank to the
health of the sovereigns and chiefs of
the nitions, thc flags of which were rep
resented by the guests. In the order of
his toasts, the first one, next to that to
the German Emperor, was to Great Brit
ain, the next to Russia, while thc United
States was last. The reason Great Brit
ain was named In the first place was be

or so afterward, the Prince was" in
formed by the German Consul, Herr von
Loeper, who is now in Valparaiso, that
the representative of the United States,
himely. Admiral Dewey, was pained be
cause the Prince had not put the United
States at tho head of his toasts, con
trary to international usage, which de
mands the order of the toasts on such
occasions. This uage is that the toasts
shall be given In the order of seniority
in commission of officers present. Dewey
wis. In fact. In that respect, the senior
among the guests. The Prince did not
hesitate to seek an opinion, and frank
talk on this question of etiquette with his
American comrade, whom he highly es
teemed. When visiting the flagship Olym
pia he frankly told Dewey thnt he had
convinced himself that he was wrong and
that Dewey wit right, and Dewey's re
ply was this: 'Well, sir, I thank you for
your apology. I may say that I liked
you before this, but after what you have
told me just now I l.ke you better, and
this i saying a great deal.'
"It Is easily to be ccen thit this set
tlement of a question of etiquette goes
only to strenffit.en the friendly lelatlons
between them and mat Prince Henry te
keeping the words of his American friend
in grateful remembrance."
