3 THE , TIORXIXG OREGOXIAN. TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 20, 190G. HOUNDTH 1 E TO BOSTON-TOWN Old Bark Harry Morse Has Unlucky Voyage From Portland. HAS MISHAPS FROM START Meteor Almost Hits Her, and Provi sions Rail. Short Captain Knows Sot Fate of Family In San Francisco Disaster. BOSTON. Mass., Nov. 19. (Special.) After a passage of seven months from Portland and Astoria, Or., the old bark Harry Morse. Captain H .C. Lund, was towed up the harbor shortly after noon today. The craft, which has seen 35 years of hard service, was sent around tliu Horn for delivery to her new owners, and will bo converted into a coal barge, after discharging her cargo of 300 tons of pier iron and 900, 000 feet of lumber She sailed from Portland, April 12, dropped down the river to Astoria and left there April 18. At the very. outset she ran Into hard luck, for, while still In the river, she collided with the Brit ish steadier Vermont and was damaged to the extent of $500. The long- passage of 16,000 miles around Cape Horn was attended by all sorts of difficulties. She ran' short of provisions twice. The most thrilling Incident was the escape of the vessel from drslrucLion -by an enormous meteor. "It was before daybreak on the morninK of October 15," said Captain I. unci, "when we were in latitude 11 degrees 50 north, longitude 46 degrees 20 west, that the meteor, with a flam ing tail apparently half a mile long, shot out of a clear sky. It came zig zagging out of the southern sky and we feared it would strike the vessel or go close enough to set her one fire. On it came and struck the water very near us with a roar and sizzle like the noise of 100 cannon." The bark left Oregon the day after the San Francisco earthquake and Captain Lund, who had a wife and eight children living in that city, is still in ignorance of their fate. CALVE'S SECRET ROMANCE Disappears to Wed Kicli American Who Is Blind. PARIS, Nov. 19. The vague rumors which have been circulating for several days to the effect that Mme. Calve was betrothed to a rich American and would never again appear on the operatic stage, are apparently confirmed. I,ast night, having quietly left her apartments, the singer left Taris for a long period, after confiding the news to a few intimate friends, but demanding a pledge of se crecy regarding the name of her future husband. Mine. Calve s servants said she went away with her affianced, but they were unable to give either their destina tion or his name. It is believed the couple are now on board a yacht. The whole affair is shrouded in mystery and romance. The future husband of Mine. Calve is described as a rich Amer ican, an artist, passionately fond of mu sic, who for a long time has never missed a performance of Mme. Calve, but who until recently had not sought an Intro duction. Just at the time when the Amer ican decided to ask for Mme. Calve's hand in marriage, an accident to an electric apparatus rendered him blind, the last viMon before he lost his sight being the face of the singer. I'pon the return of the couple to France next Spring, It is said, Mme. Calve and her husband will install themselves in a chateau, where a theater similar to Ade lina Pattfs theater at Cralg-y-Nos. WbIcx, will be built for Mme. Calve and her friends. The news of Mme. Calve's marriage has created a sensation in musical circles, although there is still a considerable skepticism on the question whether she has decided to end her operatic career. The Oil Elas calls attention to the fact that she has a contract to create the lead ing role In "Mary Magdalena," at the Opera Comique. in March. In response to a telegram addressed to JTnio. Calve al her chateau, her secretary wires that the prima donna will sail to morrow on a prolonged cruise and that -he declines to make any communication to the press. TIGHTENS THE BONDS. (Continued from First rage. of Justice and ppaee among the people who make war or preserve peace. Bolivia's Proof of Friendship. Mr. Calderon said In part: Bolivia has the friendliest feelings to arrln the I'nlted States. In practical proof of this we have commenced the great work of our development tnrough the rail ways that we are building. We are build ing about 1000 miles of railway that will be a most important link of this Pan American ally. It will connect Peru, Bo livia and the Argentine Republic, so that It will bo possible to (to from the Pacific to the Atlantic by train. Air. Root, not only on account of his worthy position and nil personal attainments, but by the way he expressed his feelings in South America dispelled any misunderstanding mat might have been brought- about by wrong reports of the newspapers. Mr. Root's worlt will Vm worth a grent deal for both countries. His visit to South America has been the discovery of South America for the United States. Two Currents of American Life. Mr. Cortes said in part: Evolution in this couniry has been marked by two currentB, both of which have con tributed enormously to its present stage of prosperity and power. The mst current, whue genesis may be planed In the charac ter! t as of the pilgrim fathers, is one of spirituality, the appreciation of the sub lime, the establishment of setf-governmeni, the educational movement, the campaign against corruption Jn all its forms and the great movement for the emancipation of the plaves. The rival current has moved in the lines of production and in the cultiva tion of wealth and of material prosperity. The success in thin direction has been so complete that I believe you have reached the summit, since one of the great prob lems that now occupy the minds of the best people of tiio land Is how to avoid the in definite accumulation of wealth. In fact, you have reached the point as to whether an Indefinite amount of wealth is not con sidered an evil that must be checked in some way. Predicts Noble Destiny. My view and my hope Is that wealth will he vanquished in Its struggle against spir ituality and that this country, which has been so rich ln"surprises to the world, will In the future, at no distant time, axFume the heretofore unknown attitude of a Na tion heroming the upholder of the principles rf morality and the virtue of Justice, love and good will, not only In a, political and admin istrative way, but likewise in its interna tional relations. By assuming that position, ' I believe to is great Nation will attain a point of real greatness entirely unknown in the history of the world and that Indeed It will carry the prosperity of the. Nation to a point unknown In the history of great Nations of ancient and modern times. The ratted States will never have cause to com plain of th accumulation of too much Jus tice and too much love, as you feel now that you have too much wealth. Invitation to Brazil. Mr. Do Amaral said In part: The speech of Mr. Root in the Rio Janeiro conference reflected the broad minded policy agreed upon by the President of the United States towards all the sister Hepubllc of America.' Tie speech of Mr. Root Is an everlasting event. It will re main as a monument of wisdom and clear minded spirit of Justice and a tribute to universal truth. Mr. Root, I believe. Is quite well aware of the enormous possibilities that the Amer icans "nave In trading with the Brazilian people through our chief port, and allow ine to say, go to Brazil yourself, atudy our markets, see our resources on the spot. Be familiar with the twenty-two millions of people inhabiting Brazil, try to understand our Portuguese language and be sure that success will be your reward. Fruits of Hoot's Voyage. Mr. Yoacham said In part: The recent voyage through South America of your honorable Secretary of State, who was received by us like the ambassador of peace, progress and American solidarity, is, I am happy to verify, producing the results duly expected. The people of America will know more of their Southern neighbors than they did before,' and this fact will bring more close commercial relations with mutual benefit. My country, Chile, for In stance, though very rich in natural prod ucts, has but little commerce with the United States, because we are not known. If we want capital to float a new company or to start a new Industry, we must go to the Kuropean markets, where we are well known, and there we find all kinds of fa cilities. Several specially invited guests were present, including Daniel Cheater French, the sculptor, of New York; David R. Francis, president of the Trans-Mississippi Commercial Congress; Governor Mickey, of Nebraska; Governor Frantz, of Oklahoma; several offcers from the army posts at Fort Leavenworth and Fort Riley. Kan.; J. E. Hurley, general manager of the Santa Fe Railroad: S. M. Felton, president of the Alton Railway; B. L.. winchell, president of the Rock Island system; and J. KruttschnVt, vice president, and J. C. Stubbs, traffic man ager of the Union Pacific Railroad. Amerlcanl.e South America. Mr. Pardo said in part: The greatest effort ever Vnade by the United States to make its policy in regard to the 1-arln Republics known In South America Is represented by the visit that the fc'trrttary of State. Mr. Root, has just made to those countries. The Secretary of State, wnose eloquence has won for him self the affection and esteem of 40.000.000 In m. tit ants living south of Panama, and f r his country, the X'nited States of Amer ica, has secured the everlasting regard lof the southern portion of this continent. The jsit of Secretary Root sooner or later will bring the Industrial and commercial Ameri canization of the South American Repub lics. Mr. Root has been able to appreciate taat the South American countries offer to day all kinds of security to American capi tal, becau.se these countries are now on a stable basis and the country Is respected, civil and political freedom exists and revo lutions exist only In the minda of the newspaper writers, who And In them a good subject to amuse their leaders. Barrett Foresees New Kra. v Mr. Barrett spoke but briefly, reserving his principal remarks for tomorrow night. Ho said: I cannot emphasize too strongly the point that this meeting In Kansas Ulty of the South American diplomats with dele gates of people from all over the United States, marks the actual beginning of a new era in the relationship existing be tween the. United States and South Amer ica, SPECIAL JURY FOB T , - JEROME WILL ASK COURT TO PREPARE FOR TRIAIi. Thaw's Counsel Refuse to Discuss Opinion of Alienists on Thaw's Flea of Insanity. NEW YORK, Nov. 19. District Attor ney Jerome today served notice upon counsel for Harry K. Thaw that the prosecutor would appear in coyrt tomor row and ask for a special Jury before Recorder Goff on December 3, to try Thaw for the murder of Stanford White, the architect.

Gleason, of counsel for Thaw, called on their client in the Tombs late today. The object of the visit, it is understood, was to confer with the prisoner on a story published this evening, which was to the effect that three alienists retained by the defense to examine Thaw had reported to his coun sel their conclusions that Thaw was in sane when he killed White. Tonight a representative of Thaw's counsel de clared emphatically that the published story would neither be confirmed or de nied, as the attorneys for the defense had decided to do no further talking for publication. HILL IS IN FULL CONTROL Burlington to Be Made Part of Great System. OMAHA, Nov. 19. The Bee says today: Within one week the equity which the Northern Pacific now hold9 in the Bur lington will pass into the hands o the Great Northern, and within 15 days the Burlington and Great Northern will be merged into one vast system, with James I. Hill in control. This statement was made this morning by a man close to the official family of the Hill roads, who has just returned from Chicago, where the intricate operations of this gigantic trans action are now being perfected. He makes the statement without - reservation. So far as the lines of track of the Great Northern, Northern Pacific and Burlington are concerned, these three roads lack but one little link now of being. In fact, one great system. When the short cut from Billings to Great Falls. Mont., Is completed, the unification will be consum mated. The Western terminus of the Burlington is Billings, where it meets the Northern Pacific A line has been In course of construction for some time from Billings to Great Falls, where the Great Northern runs on its way to the Coast. This line will soon be finished and when it is, the three great railroads will be Joined and merged, physically, into one vast system, but, the Federal Government objecfing. the Northern Pacific will not be named in the union.
