Early in January of 1IW the campaign
opened. A few sleds were sent to the
American shores to explore a route and
to advance supplies. Clouds and storms
made the moonlight days dark and there,
fore the advance expeditions were only
partially successful. On February 19, 1905.
the main expedition started for she Pole.
Eleven men. driving- 108 dogs and moving
11 heayily-laden sleds, left the Greenland
shore and pushed westward, over the
troublesome Ice of Smith Sound, to Cape
Sabine. The gloom of the Ions Winter
night was but little relieved by a few
hours of daylight and the temperature
was very low.
Eighty-three Degrees Below.
Passing through a valley between FJles
mere Land and Grinnell Land from the
head of Flagler Bay In crossing the Pa
cific Slopes the' temperature fell to S3
degrees below zero, Fahrenheit. In Bay
Fjord many musk oxen were secured and,
though the Winter frost was at its low
est, there was little wind and with an
f abundance of fresh meat and also fat
for fuel, the life in the snowhouse proved
fairly comfortable.
The Ice In Eureka and Nansen Sounds
proved fairly smooth, and long- marches
were made In which was an abundance of
game, muskox. bear and hares. We found
It quite unnecessary to use the supplies
taken from Greenland. Caches of provi
sions and ammunition were left along Hei.
berg Island for the return.
Savage Hands Willing.
Thus we managed to keep in game trails
and In excellent fighting trim to the end
of known lands. Camping in the chill, of
the frowning cliffs cf the northernmost
coast (Svartovog) we looked out over the
heavy Ice of the Polar Sea through eyes
which had been hardened to the worst
Polar environments. There was at hand
an abundance of supplies with willing
savage hands ' and a superabundance of
brute force In overfed pelts, but for a
greater certainty of action over the un
known regions beyond,-1 resolved to re
'duce the force to the smallest numbers
consistent with the execution of the prob
lem in hand.
We had traveled nearly 400 miles In 28
days. There remained a line of 520 miles
of unknowable trouble to be overcome
before oucr goal could be reached. For
L this final task we were provided with
every conceivable device to ease this hard
lot, but In addition to a reduced party.
I now definitely resolved to simplify the
entire equipment. At Svartovog a big
cache was made. In this cache fresh
meat, todnu, pe mm lean and much other
food, together with all discarded articles
of equipment, were left. In the north
ward advance every factor of the dog
train had been carefully watched and
studied to provide a perfect working force
' for the final reach over, the Polar Sea,
Etuklshuk and Ahwelah. two young Eski.
mos. each 20 years old, had been chosen
as beet fitted to be my sole companions
In the long run of destiny. Twenty-six
dogs were- picked and upon two sleds
were loaded all our needs for a stay of
SO days.
All .for Progress.
To have Increased this party would
not have enabled us to carry supplies
for a greater number of days. The
sleds might have been loaded more
i heavllv. but this would reduce the
' Important progress of the first days.

hurricane that swept this part of the

Shipping of all kinds In the bayou
inlets was destroyed. Storehouses,
sugar mills and dwellings at Houma
and other villages were badly damaged.
The damage at Grand Island and
Chanlere Camlnada was heavy, but no
Uvea were lost. -The crops on that
island were totally . destroyed, for the
water swept across two, or three feet
deep. The orange groves were whipped
clean'of fruit and foliage, hundreds of
trees being uprooted. -
The first message from the Islands
was received today when the mall
steamer Grand Island reached this city.
It was feared before the arrival of the
boat that hundreds had lost their lives.
In the tropical storm of 190 no less
than 1500 people were drowned on
Chanlere Camlnada.

"I was thrown fiat on the bridge and
only saved myself by4 locking my arms
around one of the ties," said Doharty in
describing his experience.
There were three negroes .In. my.
gang, and they finally reached me. By
that time the waves were tearing up
the bridge and we lashed a number of
ties together with wire, launching them
Just as the section of the bridge on
which we were standing was swept
away. The waves were running at
least 60 feet high. The bridge went
down 8unday and we were washed
around In the bay until Monday after
noon,, when we were picked up by i

BOMB FOUND AT MEETING-
PLACE OF TAFT AND DIAZ.
Officials Strong hi Denial of Any
Attempt at 1YwAar, Saying Revo
lutionists Bawnonsible.
EL PASO, Tex., Sept 22. The discov
ery tonight of "a bomb In a residence In
course of erection In Juarez, across the
border In Mexico, caused a sensation.
The authorities were notified and 12
workmen were placed in Incommunicado.
It was first- reported the bomb was
found In the rear of the customs house,
where President Taft and President Dial
are to meet October 16, but this was later
denied by the authorities.
The residence of Camlllo Arguelles,
where the bomb was found, Is a block
from the customs house, where the meet
ing of the Presidents Is to take" place. A
visit by President Diax to Arguelles, who
is a close personal friend of Diaz, was
thought probable. Colonel Corella; com
manding the regular arihy in Juarez,
says the object was a small piece of dy
amlte. "It was no more than a quarter of a
stick," he said.
"It probably was thrown there by a
revolutionist some months ago, when ar
rests were being made of these people."
The Mexican Consul, A. V. Lomell, of
El Paso, admits that a stick of dynamite
was found, but he attaches no signifi
cance to it.
' Senor Arguelles, owner of the residence,
could not be seen, word coming from the
house that he was ill. A friend of the
family, who was interviewed, said, how
ever, that the little son ' of Arguelles
found a bottle with a liquid explosive in
It, with a cap and fuse attached.
Mexican Consul - Lomell tonight' said
the men arrested would have a hearing

Ten thousand- people saw the best
racing card of the year, and thronged
the show stables to revel in the stirring
displays of blooded stock, at the Port
land Livestock Fair, yesterday. It was
a crowd that spelled the first syllable
of the word success for the annual ex
position. And judging from the un
stinted enthusiasm displayed by , the
crowds, the other syllable of that im
portant term will be wrought 'out dur
ing the remaining days of the week.
"With perfect weather conditions and an
exceptional racing and show programme,
a large crowd was fully expected, but
fully 2000 more people than had been
conservatively counted upon put in ap
pearance. It was the turning point In
the annual show, for only medium
crowds had braved the somewhat chilly
and cloudy weather of the first two days.
And yesterday's response gave Portland
a, lock-hold on the annual-livestock fairs
of the Pacific Northwest, a hold which
can be broken only by a falling away -of
attendance the rest of . the week, which
Is totally improbable.
- Big Crowd Conies Early.
It was All-Portland's day, and every
part of it was worthy of the name. The
crowds began appearing as early as noon,
and when the first heat was called at
2 P. M., the spacious grandstand was
completely filled. Before 2:30 o'clock the
grandstand crowd . was overflowing Into
the bleachers, alcr.g the race course and
ewn back across the paddock.
None got to the show stables until the
last race had been run, for the various
events were replete with interest and ex
citement. Interest . centered largely in
the 2:08 pace. In which the fastest time
of the track was made, the victory go

In this race Adam G. made the best

NEW TORK, Sept. 22. (Special.) A
possible reconciliation between William
K. Vanderbilt. Jr., and his wife, formerly
Virginia Fair, of California, was ths

It was learned that Mrs. O. H. P.

daughter-in-law together but failed. She
is now to make another attempt.
The marital disaster of the younger
Vanderbilts today shares the attention

his friends, will probably wed Mrs. Mar-,

On Way From Europe.
Mrs. William K. Vanderbilt, Jr., is now
hastening here from Europe and the dif

probably will be definitely settled as soon
as she reaches America. She is bring
ing her two children. The third child,
Consuelo, has been with Mrs. Eelmont
since Mrs. Vanderbilt left for Europe last
year.
For some time gossip of society has
predicted a match between Alfred
Gwynne Vanderbilt and Mrs. McKim.
Those who pretend to know say the mar
riage will take place this Fall. Since
his separation from his wife, Elsie
French, Alfred Vanderbilt has been in
the public eye perpetually because of his
coaching trirs in England. Since the
suicide of Mrs. Ruiz, the beautiful woman
whose name was mentioned at the time
of his divorce, he has avoided the line

Mrs. McKIin has been one of the
