THE MORXING OREGOXIAX, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 190T. HUGHES CAUSES ETO Newspaper Satirists Cannot Find Anything in Him to Ridicule. EXCEPT BUSHY WHISKERS Governor Has Turned Dow n Bosses and Made Good Appointments. After Scalps of Machine Men. Unlike Other Reformers. NEW YORK, Feb. 22. (Special.) Prior to the advent of Charles Evans Hughes every Governor of New York State has enjoyed the privilege (if enjoyed Is the word) of being -publicly vilified twice each year. The first occasion takes place at the nnnual dinner of the "Amen Cor ner.' the second when the legislative cor respondents dine at Albany. The "Amen Corner" Is composed of .newspaper men who hanff about the Fifth Avenue Hotel In particular and other places in general, looking for political news. It is organized much on the lines of the Gridiron Club of Washington, and a bitter rivalry exists between its mem bership and those In the Legislative Cor respondents' Association. The Amen Cor ner has already held its dinner. The legislative correspondents are scheduled to "feed" on February 28. and the "main . jokers in both organizations are bowed down with sorrow. Has Made No "Breaks." "He hasn't made any breaks, so there isn't anything you can roast him .iout," confided Iouis Seibold. president of the Amen Corner, to a friend. So the "Ameners" took H out in making fun of the Governor's whiskers. It Is terrible to contemplate what would have been the result bad Mr. Hughes been clean-shaven, and the legislative cor respondents are sad because, with the subject of whiskers exhausted, there is nothing left for them to make fun of. All the Amen Corner men did to Hughes was to sing a song about him, and like wise prepare articles of impeachment. When one considers how other Gover nors have "got theirs," the Amen song may be regarded as a compliment. It was a parody on the celebrated "Al wajs in the Way," and went as follows: Always In the way, Alack, and sad the day. The Governor's whlafeers everywhere. Hoar them rustle in the air. Bosses In despair, A hoodoo's in that hair. No jobs today, no deals that pay His whiskers In the way. likewise the articles of impeachment are quite a compliment. The report on the subject read: Articles of Impeachment. Your eommittee appointed to Investigate the Governor has not found It difficult to obtain evidence of high crimes and mis demeanors committed by him that render it our imperative duty to proceed to his im peachment immediately. He is brazen in Ills conduct, openly -boasting his misdeeds, and glories In the defiance of our sov ereign customs. The articles - of Impeachment declared" that the Governor had served notice Jan uary l. 1907, that he had not been elected by the liegislature and wouldn't do its work for it; that he intended to do his fluty as Governor and did actually adhere to this new and strange policy whereby many members were put .to great incon venience and trouble in learning what the Constitution was animal, vegetable or mineral and what were their constitu tional duties; that he appointed one Stevens, a man of notorious honesty and other disqualifications, to high official place without regard to the feelings of one Wadsworth, one Aldrldge, one Par sons, one Roosevelt one eHndricks and in fact the whole damn family; that he ma liciously and wickedly declines to' act as the agent of Theodore Roosevelt in con ducting the state government; that he performs his duties openly in the execu tive chamber, where he may be heard by anyone that cares to listen, and finally. That the said t'harles Evans Hughes does wear upon his face certain long and dark curtains, portieres, lambrequins or draper ies, of an impenetrable texture, which makes it impossible to tell whether he is .stringing a statesman or not; which is against the peace and dignity of the com monwealth and contrary to the form of statute in such cases made and provided. it was really the biggest tribute ever paid to a politician in New York, and clearly demonstrated that, in the eyes of the keenest and most expert of Judges, (the political writers) the Governor is making good. What Hughes Has Done. In the meantime the Governor is going ahead in his gentle, placid way, and with out any blowing of trumpets has accom plished a lot of good in high places. Here are a few of the important things he has done already: He has politely turned down every poli tical boss in the state. State Chairman Timothy L. Woodruff, Boss Hendricks, of Syracuse; Boss Aldrldge. of Rochester: Moss Warren, of Buffalo: Hiss Parsons, of Manhattan: P;lyer. of Columbia County, i ,,f their stamp are simply v .le eyes of the Gov ernor; ;. lollowers thoroughly realize it. The state Oepartment of Public Works, heretofore the most important asset of the "machine." Is now completely lost to them. Superintendent SJevens, who is worth JM.OW.OO. Ms at the head of it. and he knows politicians and their ways. The State Board of Elections is headed fry a. man whose appointment met with the objection of all the county bosses. The "Capitol Ring," accused of vari ous crimes in connection with supplies ut the State House, has been rooted out. A competent man. drafted from the Assistant Treasurership of the United States, heads the Banking Department, and the scandals which were of month ly occurrence there have ceased. And anybody who wants to see the Governor can walk right into his office and aoe him. But the day of private confabs in the interior office is at an end. x This is regarded as a pretty fair start for six weeks for a "green" office-holder, but more fur is bound to fly before the Legislators start for their homes. Mr. Hughes wants to re move the State Superintendent of In surance, the State Railroad Commis sion, the State Board of Gas and Elec tricity, the Rapid Transit Commission, the State Superintendent of Gas Meters and a few other office-holders. There is a general uncanny feeling that, in some way or manner, he will suc ceed In doing it, although politicians now say it is impossible: but it is noticed that they are saying it under their 1 reaths. , When the Governor has completed the v.ovk 'he has set out to do, there will n t be a machine Republican in big of fice anywhere in the state. . "I have seen a good many reformers in my time," said a city Republican who has been on the State Committee for many years, "but Hughes is In a class T all by himself. Reformers always begin by ousting the politicians: then they re place them by non-partisans, generally honest, but men without tact, knowledge or Judgment. The result is that you never hear anything of the main reformer when his original term of office has ex pired. "Seth Low and William R. Strong are two cases in point. Both threw out the politicians, ran honest administrations and were, in turn, thrown out by the voters. The reason was that New York ers realized that these two Mayors had surrounded themselves with absolutely worthless subordinates. The people were convinced of the personal honesty of Strong and Low, but they didn't trust their judgment. "Every "time Hughes has fired a 'regu lar,' he has put a better man in his place. Consequently his judgment as well as his honesty is quoted above par, and I do not believe the Legislators will dare to antagonize him. Have you heard them make any unpleasant remarks up to date? They are afraid to." Nothing to Make Fun Of. But this does not help the legislative correspondents one little bit. They want to make it warm for the Governor, and thev do not see how they can manage to do it. "Of course, we can't say anything about his whiskers." remarked President Louis C. Lang, dolefully, "but what else is there to criticise him about?" And political echo replies. "What?" but fails to answer the question. Incidentally the average New Yorker is pleased to be rujed by a Governor so big and strong that he cannot be made fun of, not even in the harmless, good natured -way that newspaper men had planned. TWO WIN SILVER MEDALS PENTATHLON TRACK MEET AT Y. M. C. A. A SUCCESS. liesult Encourages Athletes, and As sociation Will Send Teams to ' Columbia University Meet. . The Pentathlon track meet last night at Y. M. C A. gymnasium was a great success and demonstrated that the As sociation has a number of good athletes. So encouraging was the result that the members, after the meet, resolved to send a track team to the big indoor tournament to be held at Columbia Uni versity next April. Two of the competing athletes succeeded in winning silver medals, and seven bronze medals were also distributed. No one was able to take one of the gold medals, but at this period the men have not had time to train properly. Nearly all the contestants entered all events, with the exception of Al Hart man, who won a bronze medal and en tered in only three events. The winners of the silver medals. Burns and Sheets, proved their ability as all-round athletes. These two men won points in every con test and succeeded in taking first place in three of the events. Burns especially made a fine showing, and with a few years' training should develop Into a crack all-around athlete. In the pole vault he jumped four inches higher than his nearest opponent, and won the con test by a jump of nine feet, six inches. He also won a gold medal, the result of a tie In the telegraphic meet held last December, with Sheets of the local As sociation. Last night the tie was played off. Burns won, and after the meet was presented with a fine gold medal by Physical Director Grilley. In the mile run. Backus won. with the splendid time of 5:16. Considerine the condition of the track and-the obstacles. his run was very good. On an outdoor track he could have cliDPed 20 seconds off the time without running any better man ne ran last night. In the high Jump Sheets won with ease and cleared the bar at five feet six inches. He is a remarkably graceful jumper, and his work drew applause from the audience. Sheets also won the 100-yard dash in 11 3-5 seconds, and this record is con sidered good on the Association track. As the course is very small and the corners sharp, it is impossible for a man to make any showing on it. Burns, the highest man, made his points in the fol lowing manner: Ninety-six on the high jump, 80 on the pole vault. 40 on the 100-yard dash, 40 on the shot put. 49 on the mile run. Sheets, who came out sec ond, made 76 on the high jump, 88 on the pole vault, 40 on the 100-yard dash, 43 on the shot put, and 63 on the mile. Following is a list of the events and the winners: High jump Sheets first. Walby, Hart man; distance. 5 feet 6 inches. Pole vault Burns first. Sheets Walby; distance, 9 feet 6 inches. Shot put Saub first, Hartman, Wetter berg; distance, 33 feet 6 inches.' Hundred-yard dash Sheets first. Burns, Walby; time. 11 3-5 seconds. Mile run-Backus first, Hartman Jame son; time, 5 minutes 16 seconds. ' The following athletes won bronze medals: Pie, Hartman. Jameson. Walby, Backus, Webber and Wetterberg. ALL RESCUED FROM WRECK (Continued From First Page.) lice had to resort to vigorous measures to clear the premises and allow the doc. tors uninterrupted control. Several rela tives succeeded in forcing an entrance to the hotel, and there were some scenes of bitter disappointment when these dis covered that the members of their fam ilies were not among the rescued. The names of the passengers follow: Mr. Young. Mr. Broederison. Fraeulein Buttel. Fraeulein Gabler. ( Frau Schraeder. Under the reviving influence of food the survivors soon became comparatively cheerful. Fraeulein, Buttel and Frau Schraeder, although practically starving and with their hands and feet terribly frostbitten, showed remarkable cheerful ness. Relating her experiences, Frau Schraeder said: Their Agony of Suspense. I never can forget the terrible hours of anguish and despair we passed through while watching with our hearts, I might say, the gallant efforts of the crews of the lifeboat and tugs to snatch us from the Jaws of death. On Thursday night our an guish reached its height, when the gale seemed fiercer than ever. Mountainous, death-cold billows broke over the ship every minute and the dense, blinding blizzard hid from us the comforting lights of the Hook. At about 5:30 In the morning we heard the siren of the Incoming Great Eastern steam er Vienna and Fraeulein Buttel, In a frenzy of despair, shouted to the howling winds: "Wlr slnd hler." (We are here.) ' Whenever we somewhat later heard the passing craft, we shouted, fearing that the people on board would think all was over. I saw nearly all my friends carried away by the sea "and drowned. We watched the operations of our rescu ers with breathless anxiety, but when we finally understood their actions and saw there was a chance of life we could hardly believe our eyes. Exhaustion, exposure, hun ger and fear had made us so miserable that even the Joys of life brought no smile to our faces and no word to our Hps. When I left the wreck the engineer was earcely breathing and there is no hope of getting him off alive.

BUT CUTICURA WORKS A MIRACULOUS CURE "When my little boy was six months old he had ezcema. The sores extended so quickly over the whole body that we at once called in the doctor. We then went to another doctor, but he could not help him, and in our despair we went to a third one. Matters be came so bad that he had regular holes in his cheeks, large enough to put a finger Into. The food had to be given with a spoon, for his mouth was covered with crusts as thick as a finger, and when ever he opened the mouth they began to bleed and suppurate, as did also his eyes. Hands, arms, chest, and back, in snort the whole body was covered over and over. We had no rest by day or night. Whenever he was laid in his bed, we had to pin his hands down, otherwise he would scratch his face and make an open sore. I think his face must have itched most fearfully. "We finally thought nothing could help, and I had made up my mind to send my wife with the child to Europe, hoping that the sea air might cure him, otherwise he was to be put under good medical care there. But, Lord be blessed, matters came differently, and we soon saw a miracle. A friend of ours spoke about Cuticura. We made a trial with Cuticura Soap, Ointment, and Resolvent, and within ten days or two weeks we noticed a decided im provement. Just as rjuickly as the sickness had appeared it also bean to disappear, and within ten weeks the child was absolutely well, and his skin was smooth and white as never before. F.

We could Ket no Rood Bleep, we were too busy dodging the waves that kept rolling on the smokeroom. We shouted to attract the attention of every passing ship. We all sat cheek to cheek to keep ourselves warm, but we had to cling to what we could when a big wave came aboard and flooded us. We could see the people who put off in boats to view the wreck and watch the work of those searching for bodies In the sea. 'So Kood for Whole Day. It now appears certain that after the catastrophe there were many more-than 15 persons remaining on the wreck, and that most of them were washed off by. the waves. One woman was carried away just before the rescue was effected. The survivors huddled together for warmth and the members of the crew who were still alive shared their food with the oth ers. There was not enough to go around, however, and for 24 hours not a morsel of food passed the lips of these unfortunates. The survivors highly praise Prince Hen ry, who personally assisted the women and had gloves provided for them. The Prince wrapped his fur coat about one woman. I'rince Helps In Rescue. Captain Jansen of the lifeboat and the other rescuers praised the courage of Prince Henry, who went out in the smaller boat and worked hard, pulling at the oars and helping to hoist the sur vivors aboard. This was not accom plished without difficulty owing to the heavy surf, but the rescuers managed to get a line aboard the wreck and made the other end fast to the lighthouse. The survivors then climbed down and were carried, one by one, through the surging water, breast-high, along the pier and placed in the small boat, whence they were transferred to the pilot-boat. Three on Board, Slowly Dying. Captain Jansen says he was compelled to leave the two women and the child on board the wreck because they did not dare to make descent of the rope, owing to their completely exhausted condition. In fact they appeared to be dying. An other determined attempt to reach the wreck will, however, be made at low tide at 2 o'clock tomorrow. The boatmen in tended to try to board the wreck, wrap up the two women and child in waterproof sacks and lower them into the boat. The wind has died down, but the cold is intense and the fury of the sea is terrible. It has been discovered that the wreck of the Berlin Is resting on the remains of the British steamer Leeds, which was lost on this same spot in 1SS2. At high water this morning the poop deckhouses were the only portions of the Bteamer visible, and there the few survivors were huddled. A lifeboat which went out to the wreck at midnight, ac companied by three tugs, remained there, anchored close to the Berlin, but was unable to get alongside of her, as the heavy seas would have dashed her to pieces. Captain Parkinson, who was on board and was the first to escape said today that the catastrophe was due to the fact that the Berlin broached to in the ter rific sea as she was entering the water way, and that before she was able to recover herself she was dashed upon the pierhead, immediately crunched up like a concertina and parted amidships. Bodies Battered to Pieces. The Hook of Holland Is filled with anx ious relatives of the passengers and crew of the Berlin, and pathetic scenes were witnessed at the improvised mortuary, where 30 of the bodies which already have been washed ashore are located. Most of these are battered beyond recognition and some are without hands and others without arms or legs. Veteran pilots and seamen who watched the Berlin being driven to her doom say the gale was the fiercest in many years. One of the eye witnesses described the scene as follows: "As the vessel approached, it was no ticed that she was being carried out of her course by the force of the wind and the tremendous 'driving power of the waves. The trained eyes of the of ficials upon the Jetty who were waiting the steamer's arrival saw she was in Imminent peril, and a flare from the Berlin showed that the inevitable had been -realized by those on board. Be fore the flare died out, the crash came. It could be beard above the din of the 11 iui. only to each purchaser. mail, telephone or C. O. SALE OF IRON BEDS ENDING TODAY storm. "When the Berlin struck, the waves were sweeping the northern part of the pier, which is little more than a breakwater, from end to end, and the tremendous seas which washed over the Berlin from bow to stern quickly bat tered her to pieces. For a short time the vessel lay at the mercy of the wind and waves. Huge rollers struck her and carried off deck gear and swept some of the passengers into the churning waters. Suddenly a great rent gaped amidships and the boat's bown and stern parted, hurling nearly all on board into the sea. SWEPT INTO SEA IX BATCHES Captain of Rescue Steamer Describes 1'nle of Passengers. I,ONDOX. Feb. 22 (noon). The Great Eastern Railway steamer Clacton re turned to Harwich this morning from the Hook of Holland, where she ar rived yesterday morning about an hour after the ill-fated Berlin was wrecked. The Clacton stood by the Berlin' all day and made strenuous efforts to res cue the survivors. An officer of the Clacton today gave a graphic account of the scene, as follows: "On our arrival at the Hook of Hol land we found the Berlin broadside upon the north pier end, and we at once set to work in an endeavor to succor the stranded steamer. The waves were 40 feet high, for the tide was high and a fierce gale was blowing. "We got in close to the rocks, but near ly went on them ourselves, and had to put about in order to escape the fate of the Berlin. It was impossible for us to get a lifeboat, as it would have been smashed to pieces in the raging waters. We could see people in groups on board the Berlin, some on deck and some in the smokeroom, upon the forepart of the vessel. As we ap proached in an attempt to rescue them the persons on board raised a cheer. Apparently the best of discipline pre vailed on board the Berlin. All the passengers had been furnished with life belts and had gathered up on the lee side, endeavoring to shelter them selves from the awful seas which were breaking over the vessel, submerging her decks, funnels and almost her masts, hiding her entirely from view. When within a hundred yards of the Berlin we threw out our life-belts with lines attached, but they failed to reach her. It was impossible to take a line on board the stranded steamer, as nothing could have lived in the terri ble waves. "When the Berlin broke in two the passengers and crew were swept off her decks in batches and drowned within a few yards of safety. We could hear their shouts for help, but could do nothinjr to assist them. We saw scores of people struggling in the water, many clinging for brief periods to floating wreckage, but in their be numbed state they were unable long to resist the force of the waves, and dropped off one by one."
