"TONY" APACHE IS
DECLARED NEGRO
Deceives Smart Set in New
York City and
Portland.

OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
Ington, July 6. Portlanders who two
Summers ago opened their houses to
Antonio Apache, supposed grandson of
Chief Cochise, and those who other
wise met and admired this brilliant
red man during the Lewis and Clark
fair, will be surprised to learn that the
New Yorkers who had dealings with
this same Apache, after careful In
vestigation, declare him to be a fake,
and not an Indian, as he poses, but a
negro, the son of a former cook of Mrs.
Russell Sage. Apache was In Port
land during the whole Summer of 1905,
was a conspicuous figure at the Port
land Hotel, and was much in evidence
at the exposition and In other prom
inent places. But if Portlanders were
taken In, New York's 400 was sold
even worse.
According to a dispatch from New
York, Apache has been able to ex
ploit the credulity of the smart set for
the last 10 years, because he made de
ception an art. Not only did he ape
the Indian in physical appearance, but
also studied the habits and language
of the redskin. On top of his African
curls he has been accustomed to wear
a wig of coarse black Indian hair.
Lest the natural ebon of his features
should dissipate his claim of Indian
ancestry, he Is ald to tint his skin
with bronze paint, doing it so skill
fully that he has frequently posed
to artists for "color."
Society Is Duped.
Society first began to entertain the
alleged gTandson of Cochise two years
ago, when Mrs. John R. Drexel Invited
a select number of guests to meet him.
At once Invitations from the most ex
clusive homes of New York and Phila
delphia began to be showered upon
him. For a time he dropped out of the
social horizon, only to appear a still
greater favorite last Winter at a ball
at the home of Mrs. John Jacob Astor.
President Roosevelt has frequently
dined with this '"Indian" Hon. Antonio
told the President that he was a grad
uate of Harvard, and aroused such In
terest in his host that the latter plied
him earnestly with questions. An
tonio's answers were always so prompt
that the President said:
"Here certainly is a fine type of
American, Indeed this fellow Is real
American; the kind that can be de
veloped out of a race which is so gen
erally considered to be decreasing."
The President has. It Is said, had
talks with Antonio at the White House,
In which the two have discussed Indian
affairs. In order to become versed In
the habits and history of the Apaches,
this fellow, it Is said, went down Into
the Southwest and lived among them.
He took a young Indian to New York
from the Carlisle Indian School, and
had the youth call him "uncle."
This young Indian was received with
such favor as the nephew of the bril
liant Antonio that he subsequently mar
ried the sister of a prominent artist.
Disguise Is Penetrated.
"I am absolutely certain that this
social lion Is a negro," said William M.
Carey, the well-known New York artist.
"When I was painting a picture entitled
the "Buffalo Signal," I sent for An
tonio. He was tall, statuesque and,
etrange as It may seem In the light of
subsequent events, he possessed that
sort of Indian color that I wanted. But
as I studied his face, I became suspi
cious. It was not an Indian face. My
suspicions became acute when I saw
sticking straight out from my model's
forehead an elastic loop. I couldn't re
sist the Impulse and, leaning forward,
I gave the elastic such a vigorous Jerk
that I scalped him right then and there.
In an Instant I saw that he was a negro
and told him so. His head of woolly
hair was cropped close, except for a
tufted ridge in the middle of his head
to which he attached his wig. He ad
mitted that his mother was a negresb,
but asserted his father was a full
blooded Seminole."
This artist says Tony stole his pic
ture and pawned it for $35. He added:
"It was then I learned that Tony's
mother was a negress by the name of
Mrs. Simpson, who cooked for Mrs.
Russell Sage. Mrs. Sage sent for me
and asked me to withdraw the charges
I declined. Tony was accordingly sen
tenced to two years at Sing Sing."
A dispatch from Los Angeles quotes
the Apache as totally denying the
statements contained in the New York
dispatches.
FETED BY PORTLAXD LEADERS
"Tony" Is Well Remembered in Rose
City.
Antonio Apache, referred to In the
above dispatch, and to whom President
Roosevelt will no doubt feel con
strained to apply the sobriquet "race
faker," since the Nation's Chief Ex
ecutive as well as many others were
duped by the imposter. cut rather a
wide swath In Portland during the
Lewis and Clark Exposition. Antonio
while In Portland, was accepted at the
par value of his own assertions, and he
was entertained and feted by some of
the leading families in .the city, gain
ing easy entree as the stalwart rem
nant of a noble race of chieftains,
whose purity of lineage was vanishing,
and whose people were gradually suc
cumbing to a relentless destiny. An
tonio was revered and honored on the
ground that he represented the type of
the aboriginal redman who peopled
the American continent before the
whites and civilization swept over it.
Lionized by Young Set.
Antonio Is remembered here for his
magnificent physique, his handsome
features, his Chesterfleldian manners
and faultless attire. He seemed to be
possessed of all the world's goods
necessary to carry out hie pretension
to gentle birth, and no one doubted
that he really was a real Apache, and
that he had been . stolen from his
mother's tepee by the cruel Geronimo
in the latter's raid upon his own race.
During the Lewis and Clark fair,
Antonio was Identified with a conces
sion on the Trail, a moving picture
outfit, the use of his name being suf
ficient advertisement for It to make It
a gold mine for the ingenious im
poster. Not only did he accept the hospi
tality of Portland people, but he was
lavish In scattering his own money
in gay epicurean soirees at which he
was mine host. He was of an artistic
temperament, and in musical circles
he had many friends, not to say ad
mirers. He was even lionized by the
younger set", to whom the expose in
the East will no doubt come as a
shock. ,
Antonio and some of his escapades
are still rather fresh in the memory of
Portland people who happened to cross
his trail, and among these is Mrs.
Marion MacRae, formerly of Washing
ton, D. C, where Antonio was wont to
shine, and does, more or less at the
present time. Mrs. MacRae said last
night:
Swaggers at Washington.
"Antotrlo has been pretty well ex
ploded as a fake Indian a good many
times heretofore. His story, when he
first appeared at the National capital
some years ago, was that he had been
stolen from his parents "by Geronimo
in the early 80e during the latters
famous raid on his own nation. An
tonio claimed to be the son of the
chief of the Apaches, and that he was
sold to a wealthy white family in the
East, after having been kept in seclu
sion for a time.
"The white family lavished all the
luxuries their great wealth could bestow
upon him. They taught him the ways
of society, and believed the story he
told regarding his gentle Indian birth.
He claimed and proclaimed from the
house-tops that he was a son of Har
vard, though none, so far as I ever
knew, has ever seen his ldploma,
wig Puiied orr.
"The Apache people always scouted
his pretensions to copper-colored aris
tocracy, and it was common talk in
Washington when I lived there, .that a
band of the Apaches came to Wash
ington for no other purpose than to
pick a quarrel with Antonio and ex
pose him. They apparently had been
"tipped off" about his shock of raven
hair, well-groomed and plastered to his
head, and shining as polished ebony,
for after engaging him In some trivial
altercation, one of the Arizona braves
grabbed Antonio by the hair and off
came the flowing wig, exposing be
neath it a poll covered with well
cropped kinky hair of undeniable
negro origin. This Incident has been
frequently exploited in the papers.
"Antonio made a great many pre
tentions about his superior breeding
and his lofty lineage while In Portland
during the fair, but he was. as a good
many people will remember, identified
with a moving picture outfit during
the Summer.
"In Washington he was always seek
ing entree Into different social circles,
but he never got farther than the front
step. His yarns about having been
stolen from his home by Geronimo
when a lad, were pretty well exploded
by officials In the Department of, In
dian Affairs, and particularly by a
friend of mine who had at one time
been an Indian agent on the Apache
reservation.
"Antonio, while a strikingly hand
some man. big, broad and athletic, and
always dressed In the most scrupulous
fashion, looks a great deal more like
a negro or a 'greaser" than an Apache."
TALK OF SETOSE DUEL
TILLMAN AXD DOLLTVER HAVE
VERBAL- CONFLICT.
Southerner Resents Iowan's State
ment He Should Be In Jail for
Inciting Anarchy.
JACKSON, Mich.. July 5. A story sent
out from this city stating that Senator
Benjamin Tillman, of South Carolina,
while in this city challenged Senator J.
P. Dolllver, of Iowa, to a duel Is regard
ed here as a pure fabrication. Mr. Till
man lectured here Wednesday evening
and left here for the South before Mr.
Dolliver arrived to deliver a lecture
Thursday.
The duel story hangs upon a severe crit
icism Mr. Dolllver made of the South
Carolina Senator In his lecture last night.
Mr. Dolliver is quoted as saying:
"Men of such type as Senator Tillman,
who openly boast of violating the law,
who are instrumental in the murder of
hundreds of black men and who preach
anarchy, should be behind the prison
walls."
The duel story was to the effect that
the two Senators met in this city today
and became engaged in a heated conver
sation over Mr. Dolllver"s remarks, Mr.
Tillman finally challenging the Iowan to
a duel.

A high wind added to the progress of
the flames. The village was without
fire protection and sunfmoned help from
Malone.
RIGHT OF CAPTURE
Debate on American Proposi
tion at The Hague.
BRITAIN LEADS OBJECTORS
Exemption of Neutral Property at
' Sea Supported by Many Powers,
hut Others Say Blockade
Must Be Defined.
THE-HAGUE, July 5. The entire af
ternoon sitting of the committee on the
Geneva convention was given over to a
discussion of the American proposition,
presented by Joseph H. Choate on June
21, regarding the inviolability of private
property on the high seas. The commit
tee sat under the presidency of Professor
de Martens. M. Nelldoff (Russia), pres
ident of the conference, was present. Mr.
Choate, General Horace Porter, U. M.
Rose and William L Buchanan, of the
American delegation, and David J. Hill,
American Minister to the Netherlands,
were in attendance.
The American proposition is as follows:
Private property of all citizens of all
signatory powers, with th. exception of con
traband of war, shall be exempt on the high
seas or elsewhere from capture or seizure
by the armed vessels or military forces of
said powers. Nothing: In this rule lnsplles
In any way the Inviolability of vessels which
will attempt to enter a port blockaded by
the naval forces of raid powers, nor of til.
cargo of said vessels.
Holland and Brazil Second.
W. M. de Bauferth (Holland) then read
a declaration stating that the Dutch gov
ernment adhered to the American prin
ciple. Ruy Barbossa (Brazil) then delivered a
long speech, in which he explained that
the statement made by him on June 23
had been wrongly Interpreted as an un
condltonal adhesion to the American
proposition. He wished to make it clear
that Brazil was not the cats paw of Amer
ica, but that she supported the Ameri
can principle for the reason that capture)
never brought victory to any one.
Professor de Martens then read a dec
laration presented in writing by the Ar
gentine delegation, saying they were fa
vorable to conservation of the right of
capture.
John Bull Objects.
Sir Ernest Satow then made a dec
laration on behalf of Great Britain. He
said he realized the serious character of
the arguments In favor of the inviolability
of private property on the high seas, but
the discussion showed the evident and
logical tendency toward -abolition of the
commercial blockade. Sir Ernest demon
strated to what an extent the limita
tion of blockades would complicate mat
ters and create new causes of dispute, as
a result ef which the discussion between
belligerents would give rise to fresh Irri
tation, which might tend to prolong in
stead of shortening it. '"The inviolabil
ity of property and the limitation of
blockades are inseparable questions," the
English representative continued, "and
Great Britain for the moment does not
find the movement toward the Ideal aim,
namely, the abolition of war, sufficiently
accentuated to be able to associate her
self with the American doctrine.
"What Great Britain thinks necessary Is
respect for the interests of neutrals; that
Is why she proposed the abolition of con
traband," said Sir Ernest
Must Define Blockade First.
Baron Marschall von Bleberstein (Ger
many) began his remarks by setting forth
that Germany never had been In favor of
the capture of private property at sea,
and consequently Mr. Choate's idea would
certainly find a sympathetic echo through
out Germany. But regarding the cate
gorical question of abolishing the right of
capture, this seemed to him to be closely
allied with two other questions, namely,
that of contraband and the violation of a
blockade, two questions which would have
at once to be defined, as otherwise any
proclamation of the immunity of private
property would be in vain and the actual
system of today would remain In force.
Germany would be ready to collaborate
In the protection of private property at
sea, but on condition that the question
how to make this protecion efficacious be
first elucidated.
M. Tcharykoff in his-turn declared the
Russian delegation had profound respect
for the ideas set forth by Mr. Choate,
which so creditably represented the tra
ditions of the United States, but they
did not think the question was yet ripe for
solution. Much preparatory Judicial work
was necessary to reach a general under
standing of this matter and the Russian
delegation did not believe the conference
would succeed In advancing the question
from its present status.
Norway Stands With America.
Dr. Hagerup then voiced the adherence
of Norway to the American doctrine. He
referred to the important commercial in
terests of Norway at sea and said his
country, although small In area, was sur
passed in the matter of maritime com
merce by only a few other Nations. Nor
way will vote for the American propo
sition that the question of contraband be
examined.
The Portuguese delegation subscribed to
the statement made by the German dele
gates expressing the belief that it is first
necessary to solve the questions of block
ade and contraband.
Alms Irony at Roosevelt.
Peres triana, a member of the delega
tion from the United States of Colombia.
made a speech of extreme length. He
said Colombia must 'refuse to subscribe
to the proposition of the United States." "
M. Triana explained that for a nation
like Colombia, with a merchant marine
and with hardly any naval strength, there
is everytmng to lose and nothing to gain
by the suspension of the right to capture
private property on the high seas. In
conclusion M. Triana made Ironical refer
ence to resident Roosevelt. He said:
President Roosevelt may consider himself
a happy mortal If, when he descends from
the Presidential chair, which for Its pres
tige, power and potentiality may be com
pared to the thrones of Kings and Em
perors, or at a later period the hour of the
setting sun of a life filled with energetlo
activity, he may with uplifted head and
laying his hand upon his heart, decisis
before the history of the world on every,
any and all occasions and at all times be
has respected the rights of the weak, of
Justice and of humanity, even to the det
riment of the political interests and ambi
tions of his own country. When a man
possesses that degree of morality, he certain
ly is entitled to summon before him the
nations and the peoples of the world in
order to ask them to act disinterestedly in
the cause of humanity.
M. Renault (France) said he recognized
the matter to be complicated by the ques
tions connected with it, and that these
questions must be solved.' The right of
capture must be exercised in accordance
with the following conditions:
First That it be not exercised in the
Interests of lucre and to accomplish this
end the right of booty must be abolished.
Second That it be used only as a means
of attack on states, and not on Individ
uals. At the conclusion of the remarks of M.
Renault, Mr. Rosa delivered a speech in
which he reviewed the entire matter. He
enumerated many judicial, humanitarian
and conomlcal reasons in support of the
American proposition. He contended that
private property at sea which Is not con
traband of war is entitled to .the same
protection now enjoyed by private prop
erty on land. He added that this was not
an American doctrine; that it had long
been approved by many statesmen and
jurists of distinction, and that it had been
embodied in many treaties. The present
rulings of international law, which forbid
the pillaging of private property on land,
Mr. Rose went on, and at the same time
permit It at sea, are notoriously unjust,
indefensible, never should have existed
and should be abolished as speedily as
possible.
Sir Edward Fry (Great Britain) ex
pressed the opinion that capture at sea
was one of the least inhuman methods
of war.
The committee adjourned until Wednesday.
DRAGO DOCTRINE PROPOSED
United States Proposes to Bar Forci
ble Collection of Debts.
THE HAGUE, July 5. The text of
the American proposition presented to
the sub-committee on arbitration of
the peace conference on July 2 on the
subject of the collection of debts be
tween nations is as follows:
To avoid between nations armed conflicts
of purely pecuniary origin, caused by con
tractual debts claimed by the subjects or
citizens of one country from the Govern
ment of another, and also to guarantee tnat
all debts of a contractual nature which are
not settled in a friendly manner through
diplomacy shall be submitted to arbitration.
It is understood that coercive measures
implying the uss of military or naval force
to collect these debts cannot occur until the
creditor country offers arbitration and the
debtor country refuses It, leaves the off-?r
unanswered, or until after the decision of
the arbitrators is not fulfilled by the debtor
country.
It Is understood that the arbitration shall
be according to the procedure set forth in
chapter III of the convention of 1889 for
the - peaceful arrangement of international
conflicts at The Hague.
The arbitration must also establish In
equity the amount of the debt, the time and
mode of payment and the guarantee to be
given, if necessary. If the payment is made.
The sub-committee upon the rights
and duties of neutral powers in
times or war, etc., met today. M. Nelldoff,
president of the conference, who had re
covered from his indisposition, was pres
ent. The French proposition providing that
there shall be a declaration of war be
fore the opening of hostilities and the
amendment of The Netherlands, estab
lishing a delay of 24 hours between a dec
laration of war and the opening of hostili
ties, were discussed at length. The military
delegates of The Netherlands and France
made speeches explaining their respective
propositions. The Russian military dele
gate supported the French proposition
and Boron Marschall von Bleberstein
(German) rose and said:
"Germany accepts in its entirety the
French proposition which she considers
conforms with the modern progress of
warfare."
Joseph H. Choate (United States), Lord
Rea (Great Britain), and M. Tsuzukl
(Japan), said they reserved their opin
ion upon the whole principle of the French
and Dutch propositions, and consequently
a vote upon the subject -was postponed
until the next meeting of the sub-committee.
ITO DISGUSTED WITH EMPEROR
Discovers His Intrigues While He la
Making Promises.
SEOUL, . July 5. Inquiry shows that
general disgust Is the main effect among
Japanese here as a result of the conspi
racy in sending a Korean deputation to
The Hague, the telegraphic disclosures of
which Interrupted the Korean Emperor's
profuse assurances to Marquis I to of his
confidence in him and his reform plana
and especially his supposed ardent desire
for a sincere organization of the Cabinet.
Marquis Ito Is much disappointed and
must now proceed in face of the Em
peror's intrigues which have falsely elated
a large section of the upper classes, who
are now anticipating a miracle In Korea.
Measures Intended to rid the palace of
foreign and native mischief-makers and
adventurers were Introduced by the Jap
anese In the Cabinet last Monday but
Marquis Ito despairs of saving the Em
peror himself and the administration Is
disposed to confine its appeal to the peo
ple. Although Ito's administrative ma
chinery Is Incapable of ministering jus
tice to the Korean people, Japan has ex
ecutively and In the matter of creating a
base of operations and establishing a
highway to Manchuria been strikingly
successful in Korea.
Marquis Ito declared that It would re
quire ten years to produce a modern gov
ernment in Korea, while local Governors
say that it will take three years to dis
pose of the abuses and outrages resulting
from the contact of the Koreans with the
Japanese. The latter are estimated to be
now 100,000 strong in Korea.
SEDITTOJT SPREADS IS IITDIA
Rebel Volunteers Organize and Rich
Join Movement.
LONDON, July 6. Dispatches from In
dia report that the disaffection among the
natives Is rapidly increasing. According
to a correspondent who has made several
tours of Bengal, revolt is being preached
in many provinces and the natives are
being trained to fight. He declares that
the seriousness of the situation is hardly
realized by the Europeans in India or at
home. Formerly the discontent was con
fined to a few agitators, but now It has
spread among the aristocracy and land
holders as well as among the peasants
and coolies. An organization known as
National Volunteers has branches In near
ly every town and village and tales of
lawlessness and oppression by these vol
unteers come from every district. The
rural police are weak, the correspondent
states, and the people are gradually los
ing respect for order and authority.
An alarming feature of the situation,
it Is stated, is the growing cumber of
assaults on Europeans.
Another correspondent at Simla reports
that sedition is extending Into the cen
tral provinces.
