LOST IN POLAR SNOW STORM
Ship Traveled Well In Teeth of tti
Wind, but Compass Fallot
Motor Won the Battle
Against the Gale.
BERLIN. Sept. J4.Walter "Wellman,
head of the WtHa airship expedition,
has set t U falltfvlng telegram to the
local tjfrr from Tromsoe:
"After the steamer Express cast off the
cable, the balloon America did excellent
ly, ' but an Increasing: wind soon gave us
a hard struggle and the storm drove us
toward some high. Jagged mountains
near the coast, where the airship would
have been destroyed If she struck. There
men ensuea nara ngnung Detween me
'storm and the motor. The . latter tri
umphed. Our confidence in the America
had so Increased In the meanwhile that
I gave the order to start for the North
Pole.,
' "The wind, however, had increased to
12 miles an hour and the snow fell so
thickly that we could not see a quarter
of a mile. Just then the compass failed
to work, owing to defective construction.
,:AVe were lost in a snowstorm above the
polar sea and threatened with destruc
tion. After, a brief deliberation we de
elded to try to get back to the Express
to rectify our compass and start again.
,Jt was Impossible, however, to keep In
one direction, and we were again carried
Into dangerous proximity to the moun
tains. , "Vaniman. the engineer, then put the
imotor to top speed .and the America
nioved against the wind,' which probably
was blowing 15 miles an hour.' She clr
'oled three times In the teeth of the wind.
We saw the Express, for a moment, but
immediately lost her again. We could
have returned -to the Express If we could
have seen where to steer, but under the
circumstances the only thing possible was
to -try to land. With thisi Idea we stopped
'the motor and let the America drift over
the glacier.
".' "At the end of Xoul Bay we used a
trailer filled with provisions and a brake
.rope. Both acted .well and dragged over
the ice wall 100 feet high without dam
age. '
"The America was in the air three
hours and covered about 15 miles with
her own power. The America is from
every standpoint the strongest airship
and most durable for a long Journey that
-jrver has been built.

are convinced that we can make our way
, to the pole in normal Summer weather."

'CONFERS WITH' I'LLMEN
Commissioner Lane- llie'ars Cora
plaints About lumber Rates, t .. ;
' SEATTLE Wash.. Sept.-. .14. After a
conference with Franklin K.- Lane, of the
Interstate Commerce Commission last
night, the Pacific' Coast Lumber Manu
facturers' Association announced that
formal complaint will be shortly filed with
the Commission attacking the reasonable
ness of the new lumber tariff recently
filed by the Hill and the Harriman lines.
The lumbermen have a defense fund of
Jl'iVi.OOO. The hearing, which will cover a
'wide scope, will be one of the most im
portant held ."before the Interstate Com
merce Commission.
Commissioner Lane heard testimony in
the case of Schwager & Nettleton against
the Great Northern to recover charges
made by the railroad for reloading lum
ber destined Sawyer, N. D., on the Soo
line. The case involves the question of
the right of the railroad to charge for
reloading from its own cars to those of
a foreign line without giving previous
notice. ,
, The case of the Alaska Lumber Com
pany against the . Northern Pacific, the
Chicago, Burlington & Quincy and the
Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe, was sub
mitted without the taking of testimony.
The hearing emphasized the fact that the
Interstate Commerce Commission cannot
recognize any contract made with a rail
road which violates the published tariff.
CURTAIL COPPER OUTPUT
I'wo Mines Decide to' Decrease Pro
duction 50 Per Cent.
DULUTH, Minn., Sept. 14. The direct
ors of North Butte and Calumet & Ari
zona today decided to curtail the pro
duction of their copper mines 60 per cent.
This will mean a reduction of 700 tons
e day at the Calumet & Arizona mines
and 600 at the North Butte. The Cal
umet & Arizona is one of the leading
producers at Bisbee, Arizona, and the
North Butte operates large mines at
Butte. In explaining the action of the
directors. President Brlggs, of the Calu
met & Arizona, said:
"It la currently reported that there Is
a. surplus of copper. Once the demand
for the metal Is active, the surplus will
disappear if good, times continue, and
surplus now on hanu is little more than
normal."
DEATH TO WHITE POLICE
Arizona Indians Refuse to Surren
der Accused Murderer.
TUCSON. Ariz., Sept. 24. There is a
serious situation in Arizona, as a result
of the refusal of the Pago Indian tribe
to surrender an Indian named Johns, who
murdered a Mexican about two weeks
ago. The Indian police and deputy Sher
iffs reported that they were unable to
effect Johns' arrest. Bheriff Pacheco
called upon the rangers for help today,
and ten of them under Captain Harry
Wheeler, with the Sheriff's posse, are on
the way to the scene, which Is 100 miles
from Tucson. ,
The Indians are usually peaceable, but
now threaten death to-any whites who
venture in their village. - -
DISCREPANCY IN FIGURES
Financier Can't Understand. State
ment of New York Banks.
NEW YORK, Sept. 14. The Finan
cier will sav: ,
"Last week's bank statement of the
.New YprK Associated Banks .was a
somewhat remarkable exhibit. In that
It failed to indicate what was responsi
ble for the Important changes In loans
and deposits. The statement, however,
disclosed an Increase of about $375,000
in loans and a decrease of only f 1,632, -600
in general deposits. Moreover,, the
return did not make a good 'proof, the
sum of the decrease in cash, less the
increase In loans calling for a reduc
tion., of $486,800 In deposits, -whereas
this item was diminished by $1,632,600.
"The loss of cash shown by the state
ment was 4861,800; . the -estimates,
which were based on .the. traceable
movements of money during the week,
showed an increase of about . $2,000;
000". "The discrepancy between the -officially
reported loss and the estimated
gain cannot be accounted for on the
supposition that It was due to the
average system, nor was the increase
In public deposits responsible, as it
was only $945,600. The reduction In
general deposits was, as above noted,
$1,632,603. And the decrease - In re
serve requirements was, therefore,
IMS, 150. deducting which from the
teas, $881,800 in cash, left $453,650 as
the decrease In surplus reserve to
$6,918,700; computed upon the basis of
deposits, less those of $30,072,600 pub
lic funds, the surplus is $14,436,850.
"It may be noted that the increase
of $945,600 in public deposits last
week, compared with September 7, fol
lows a gain in the previous week of
$1,200,900."
COSTLY JOKE ON MISER
AVIIOLE PACK OF DACHSHUNDS
FOR KING OF SPAIN.
He Sends Fourteen for Oriental
Monarch to Select From, but All
Are Gladly Accepted.
NETW YORK, Sept. 14. Kaiser Wllhelm,
says a Berlin dispatch to the Sun, has
had an amusing and expensive experience
in remembering the King of Slam's birth
day. The King, while the Kaiser's guest,
expressed admiration for the Kaiser's
intelligent little dachshunds that follow
their master everywhere. When the King
went to Hamburg, he expressed" wish to
purchase a similar pair to take with him
to Slam. The remark was repeated to the
Kaiser, together with the fact that the
King's birthday would occur In a few
days, and he gave orders to procure a
number of the best specimens of the breed
and sent seven pairs for the King to
choose from.
The ruler of Slam was so overcome with
the kindness of the Kaiser that he ac
cepted all 14, whlcn he will take home
with him. It was only when a palace
official, who had been entrusted with the
delivery of the dogs, returned that the
Kaiser learned the cost of the gift. He
took the situation good humoredly, as a
Joke on himself.

THINK HE IS TRAIN-ROBBER
Detectives Arrest Man Who Talks
Too Much When Drunk.
SPOKANE, Wafh., Sept. 14. (Special.)
The Great Northern officials believe to
night they are on the trail of the men
who robbed the Oriental Limited near
Rexford, Mont., on Thursday morning.
This morning at Bonner's P'erry, Idaho,
a man named James Sharkey was placed
under arrest by a detective of the rail
road and It Is now believed there Is a
tangible clew to work on, after three
days' of search by the officers. Sharkey
was a compassman in Montana In the
employ of the Bonner's Ferry Lumber
Company. It is said that his own words
will be used against him. He had been in
the woods for a long time, and while
there would have had an opportunity to
plan for a hold-up. He has been drinking
considerable for several days before the
hold-up occurred, and in his cups he de
clared to several persons' that the Great
Northern train was going to be held-up.
He Is said to have given the time and
place where the robbery actually did
occur.
Just how much dependence Is to be
placed in the arrest is problematical, as
the reports from Bonner's Ferry are
brief. The railroad officials, however,
evidently believe they are on the right
track, as they took up the matter as
soon as they heard of what the man
had told.
No definite word has come yet from the
posse which has been searching the ter
ritory in the vicinity of the place where
the hold-up occurred.
MONEY FOR ERIE STRIKERS
Machinists Give $10,000 and Re
sent Immunity Report.
ST. LOUIS, Mo., Sept. 14. The conven
tion of the International Association of
Machinists voted $10,000 today for the
benefit of the Erie .Railway strikers. In
discussing the matter President James
O'Connell declared he intended to fight
harder than ever to win the Erie strike.
He also resented the written charge by
General Manager Stewart, of the Erie
road, that $50,000 had been paid for im
munity from strikes and that no strikes
were called while the money was paid.
Some of the delegates have written state
ments from General Manager Stewart
that the $50,000 was paid and they want to
know -who. got this money' and declare
they will not be satisfied ' until -. the
charges are' probed.

Claims Her as Wife and Woman
;- Who Claims Motherhood.'
Settle It Themselves.
CHICAGO, Sept. 14. King Solomon of
old might have tried his mettle worthily.'
had he been called upon to unravel the
claims of the Zamales, the Tolans and
one Klimovicz regarding Tillie Tolan,
fiancee- of one Hammerstrom, yesterday
in court here. Judg Cleland could not
tell whether the young woman was Miss
Tillie Tolan, of Ch.cago, Miss Anna Za
males, of Grand Rapids, or Mrs. John
Klimo'vicz, of Grand Rapids and Chi
cago. The Tolans claimed the young woman
as a daughter, whjie Mrs. John Zamales
protested she was the girl's mother. John
Klimovicz last Sunday accosted Miss To
lan -and Hammerstrom on a streetcar.
Klimovicz claimed her insistently as his
runaway wife and was arrested for dis
orderly conduct.
At the trial yesterday the young woman
said:
Denies Pretended Husband.
"I am Tillie Tolan, daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. Tolan. I never saw these peo
ple from Grand Rapids. I never saw
Klimovicz until he tried to force his at
tentions on me."
"She is my daughter and she was born
and reared in Grand Rapias; Mich. Do:.'t
you suppose I know my own daughter
when I see her? She left us two years
ago and married Klimovicz." said Mrs.
Zamales.
Both, sides produced photographs in
court, Klimovicz and the Zamales family
showing protraits, which the court ad
mitted to look very much like those
which Miss Tolan presented.
The Tolans were accompanied by the
pastor of their churcn, who stated that
Miss Tolan had been a member of his
congregation for years and was engaged
to be married to Hammerstrom, organist
in his church.
j
Judge Gives It Up.
Mr. Ponlc, the attorney, asserted that
Miss Tolan had a mole on her back,
which might be of weight in identifying
her.
"This question of relationship is the
most remarkable I ever heard of," said
Judge Cleland, "but it has nothing to do
with the charge of disorderly conduct
against Klimovicz. I shall dismiss this
Charge, because the defendant ; as actings
in good faith when he approached the
complainant and told her that she was
hiff Wife."
- The parties to the controversy will
have to determine among themselves
whether the woman is Miss Tolan or
Mrs, Klimovicz.
OF HILL'S LIFE
WILIi DEVOTE IT TO REST AND
RECREATION" COMBINED.
Railroad-Builder Talks of Good Use
for Spare Hours Tells Young
"" to Get Knowledge.
NEW YORK. Sept. 14. (Special.)
James J. Hill, the great railroad builder,
in discussing success in life, has pre
pared the following statement for publi
cation: "I have always lived the life of a man
endeavoring to be usefully busy. I mean
to drop business cares entirely in the
evening and to unite work, rest and rec
reation In reasonable proportions. I am
fond of both hunting and Ashing and
spend a short vacation each Summer on
a salmon river in Labrador.
"The working days and the working
hours are those in which there is neces
sary work to be done, whatever time
that may require. Spare hours are well
spent upon the study of history, litera
ture and art. Whatever any able mind
of great genius has given for the instruc
tion or enjoyment of the world is worth
while. Ample and accurate information
is the first step toward success for every
one, and the world of historic fact, eco
nomic fact and scientific fact, with the
bearing of each upon the probable future
of human effort, is now so large that a
man will find all his leisure too little for
his desire to equip himself with knowl
edge. In books and pictures, as in prac
tical things, only the best are worth one's
time and attention.
"The home Is the center and anchor of
life for both children and parents. It
gives happiness to the one and forms the
character of the other. All after-life is
Built upon the home life. From it the
first and best and most lasting education
is drawn. The boy or girl who is taugfft
there to be obedient and affectionate and
considerate of others, to look forward to
making the best use of whatever oppor
tunity life may bring and who receives,
after leaving the home, such education
as the best schools and universities have
to offer, has all the preparation for after
life that is possible to give, and one that
should not fail. This is a method many
centuries old, but I do not know that it
has ever been improved upon.
"The best advice to a young man, as It
appears to me, Is also very old and simple
Get knowledge and understanding. Deter
mine to make the most possible of your
self by doing to the best of your power
such useful work as comes your way.
"There are no new recipes for success
in life. A good aim, diligence in learning
every detail of your business, honest, hard
work and a determination to succeed wins
every time unless crossed by some excep
tional accident or. misfortune.
"Some opportunity will -come at some
time to every, man. 'r Then it depends upon
himself and upon what he shall have
made of himself what he makes of it and
what it will make of him." ' " '

NOT ENOUGH GOAL AT i M

Eastern Dealers Cannot Supply
Them, -but Navy Department, May
Buy In England.
NEW YORK, Sept. 14. The situa
tion with regard to the proposals Is
sued by the Bureau of Equipment of
the Navy Department for supplying
coal for the battleship fleet on Its voy
age to the Pacific, says the' Journal
of Commerce, has assumed rather in
teresting shape here by the state
ments of several agents of the larger
coal-mining concerns that they would
not present bids. Their reasons are
that they have not the necessary quan
tity of coal on hand, aside from tho
quantity demanded by private con
tracts entered into.
The companies say that they have no
reserve stocks on hand amounting to
anything, and that the labor situation
is such that they cannot increase their,
mining capacity. The coal, -it was
stated, can be obtained In England, if
it is necessary to go there, but the
prices will undoubtedly be what might
be classed as "fancy."
COWLES MAY- BUY IN ENGLAND
Says Companies Have Pledged Sup
ply Provisions in Abundance.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 14. If coal min
ing companies have decided not. to pre
sent bids-for "the contract for furnisb
ing coal to take the Atlantic fleet $q. the
Pacific Coast. This purpose of -the. com
panies has not been communicated to
the Secretary of the Navy. .' The Sec
retary said today that the Department
will have no difficulty in getting all the
coal desired and he believed, that, if
it was necessary to go to England for
it,, the price would be less than-: would
have to be paid In the United- Sjates.
Admiral Cowles, the Chief ;it; the -Bureau
of Equipment, says he haA no ap
prehension that the Navy. Department
will be unable to get all the ooal needed.
Sufficient supplies are already --pledged
by the railroad companies through which
the regular supply Is ootalned. " The -Department
desires that the coal be shipped
In American boats. If possible;, but -will
use foreign boats for this purpose, -if the
prices submitted by American dealers are
regarded as prohibitory.
Arrangements are being made for load
ing the supply ships Glacier and Culgea
with the provisions for the trip of the
battleship fleet to the Pacific Coast. They
will be ready to sail December 10, giving
them time to Join the battleship fleet
when It starts on December 15.

DECISIVE FIGHT IN ZION
VOLIVA AND LEWIS STRUGGLE
FOR CONTROL- OF CHURCH.
Each Tries to Win Foreign Delegates
From All Countries Rival
Conferences Called.
CHICAGO. Sept. 14. (Special.)
Rival claimants to the leadership of
Zlon and to the property In Zion City
began to line up today for the final
battle, which may decide whether Wil
bur Glen Vollva Is "to remain in con
trol or whether Overseer John A
Lewis, named by John Alexander Dowle
as his successor, shall have charge of
the property. The Vollva faction will
open ,lts conference tomorrow morning
at Zlon- City. The Lewis faction,
which will be supported by many of
the ' foreign delegates' who have been
arriving- in Zion City during the last
few days,' will hold its conference next
Sunday,' with the ultimate hope of oust
ing Vollva from the general overseer
ship. " The fate1 of either faction "depends on
the action of. the foreign delegates,
who are exceedingly anxious to know
-what has-become of their investments.
It .was i said today that, thy did not
care particularly for either faction. If
is could be ' shown that their Invest
ments ' wrfuld not be imperiled. From
:all over thre-world the delegates have
been arriving.
;' Vollva-'-. has . been in New Mexico,
where he has been trying to select a
new site for Zion. He is the general
overseer elected by the reigning fac
tion, and he will start a campaign to
make himself permanent head of the
church.
Lewis, being named as successor by
Dowle, will fight Vollva for the foreign
delegates and will endeavor to show
to them that he should be placed at
the head of the church. The supporters
of Lewis believe that Judge Landls,
in whose court the Zlon City estate is
now in litigation, will declare that the
conference of Vollva's supporters Is not
legal. On the other hand Vollva's sup
porters are out after the voteB of the
foreign delegates, and If they can get
them a presentation will be made to
the Federal Court to the effect that
Vollva Is the choice for permanent
head of the church.
James Hodler, overseer for Germany,
and H. G. Campbell, oversee for the
British Isles, are now in Zlon City
armed with proxies of church mem
bers. It Is said they will not vote at
Vollva's conference and that they are
in favor of Lewis. It was also rumored
that, when Vollva heard of the date of
the Lewis conference, he set his con
ference for the week preceding.
