THE STJXD AT OREGOXIAX, PORTLAND, MARCH 13, 1910. MI5S1NC 9 WEEKS, BOUT GREW FOUND All Now Accounted For From Vessel Lost January 5 in Northern Waters. HOPE HAD GROWN FAINT Included in Rescued Boat's Crew Are Two Men From Lost Ves sel's Crew and Three Passen gers Who Volunteered. SEWARD, Alaska. March 12. A wire less message here from the United States revenue cutter Tahoma tells of the res cue of the boat crew that set out nine weeks ago to seek aid for the survivors of the wrecked steamer Farallon. The Alaska "Steamship Company's wooden steamer Farallon was wrecked in Iliamna Bay on Cooks Inlet, January 5. Two days later Second Mate Gus Swan- son and five men, three of whom were passengers, net out In an open boat to row to Kodiak for assistance. The men who went with Mate Swanson were Sea men Charles Peterson and Otto Nelson and Captain Wedding and Engineer Al bert Bailey of the launch Seawolf, on their way to Kodiak to join their craft, and Charles Bourne, a resident of Afognak. February 2. the survivors who re mained on -the shore near the scene of the wreck were rescued by the steamship Victoria. No word was received from the boat crew, which" had been mlsBing near ly a month when the Farallon survivors were rescued, and after two steamers cruised about Kodiak Island and without finding them they were given up for lost. As a last resort the Government was asked to send the revenue cutter Tahoma on a cruise around the inland. It was thought possible that the men might have sought shelter in some inlet and bewail ing the arrival of a steamer to take them off. The Tahoma sailed from Seward two weeks ago and no word was received from her until tonight, when a wireless message was relayed by the steamship Olympla stating that the Tahoma had been successful in her search. No de tails concerning the rescue of Mate Swan Hon and his men have been received here and efforts to get into direct communica tion with the Tahoma have been unsuc cessful. The revenue cutter is expected to arrive at Seward tomorrow. i EX-FIREMAN' THROWS GASO DIXE ON HI3I, TOUCHES MATCH. Harry Blitz Badly Blistered by Blazing Fluid Edward Woods Xow Under Arrest. Edward Woods, an ex-fireman, while alleged to be intoxicated. Friday night threw a quart bottleful of gasoline over Harry Blitz, the "Haba Haba" man. then touched a match to the fluid. Blitz in an instant was covered with a sheet of flame. This occurred at 10 o'clock, while he was beating his tom-tom in the entrance of the Oh Joy Theater at Third and Morrison streets. Blitz owes his life to the quick as sistance rendered by several attendants at the theater.' They succeeded in ex tinguishing the flames only after the human torch was painfully burned and blistered about the face and neck. His injuries were dressed by a physician, but he will be laid up for several days. Wood3 is under arrest and will be arraigned in Municipal Court today on a minor charge. A more serious charge, it is said, will be brought against him later. According to the story told to the police, Woods approached Blitz at work with the query: "What are you. anyway?" "I'm a fire-eater, what are you?" Blitz is reported to have said. "No, you're no flre-eacer; I'm the only original fire-eater," is what Woods Is eaid to have replied. Then Woods is said to have gone to the nearest drugstore and got a quart bottleful of gasoline, and coming back to have poured the fluid over Blitz and suddenly to have set fire to it. Blitz blazed up immediately and, In his agony started to run into the theater. Employes of the place beat out the flames, however, but not before Blitz was badly burned about the exposed portions of his body. Patrolmen Long: and Montgomery ar rested Woods, and after Blitz' wounds were dressed he went to the police station and told his story of. the affair. Woods Is a former member of the fire department, but two years ago quit to engage in contracting. TWO-DAY REGATTA, PUN frPORT WILL BE ENJOYED AT ROSE FESTIVAL WEEK.

The Wolff II and the Pacer, both Portland boats, are the fastest in the world in their class. Milton Smith, of Rainier, Is reported to be building a 34-mile boat. ITALIAN MINISTER SUED MAN SAYS HE FOUND TITLED HUSBAND FOR GIRL. " Demands $5000 as Balance Due for Persuading Real Count to AVed " Daughter of Diplomat. PITTSBURG, Pa.. March 12. Claim ing that John G. A. Leishman. Ambas sador to Rome, owes him a balance 3f $5000 for securing a titled husband for Miss Martha Leishman, O. E. Bodlng ton has had his attorneys in Pitts burg place an attachment on Irishman's bank account with the Union Trust Com pany. ' - Leishman, wo was formerly president of the Carnegie Steel Company, is very wealthy and it Is presumed he refused to pay Bodington'-s claim as a matter of principle. Miss Leishman was married to Count de Gontaut-Biron in 1904. Bodington al leges Leishman commissioned him to make all the financial arrangements, and says he had much trouble In arranging a satisfactory monetary settlement with the Count before the marriage. The Paris lawyer admits Leishman has paid him In part, but he insists he is entitled to $3000 more. m Count de Gontaut-Biron died In Decem ber, 1907. , His extravagance after the marriage proved very' costly to hi Amer ican father-in-law, who. stood It for a few years, and then sent word from Constantinople, Leishman being Minister to Turkey at the time, that it would have to stop. The Count became un pleasantly peevish when he could no longer get money and the Countess had taken steps to get a divorce when the Count became ill and soon died. $237 FIGHT COSTS $2500 House Wastes Time Quarreling Over Horseshoeing Bill.

Pompeo Elena Sparafuclle and Monterone ........w... Alceste Mori A Page.." A. Giana Kigoletto, tho Jester Angelo Antola BY JOSEPH M. QUENTIX. Masked and cloaked bravos flitting across the stage, a duke who. caused trouble by the frequency with which he changed his "ladye loves," an abduction, an assassination and other like Incidents welded into one, was the bill presented last night by the Lambardi Grand Opera Company at the Bungalow, in Verdi's grand opera, "Rigoletto," and the entire rendition won praise. Madame Cecilia Tamantz Zuvaski. col orature soprano, won honors as Gllda. closely followed by Angelo Antola, bari tone, as Rigoletto, the jester. The one disappointment of the produc tion was Autilio Maurini, lyric tenor, who did his best to portray the Duke of Mantua, but did not please as a singer. His voice Is high set. he sang up to high B flat above the staff, but the quality Is very ordinary. Besides, Maurini had to follow in the footsteps of more eminent tenors who have sung in this city the part of the Duke of Mantua, and Maurini suf fers by comparison. This is said in all kindness to Maurini. Zuvaski, the demure-looking: little so prano, is an artist to her finger tips, and for her physique, has a wonderful vol ume of tone of good quality. On one oc casion, last night, she sang up to high E flat above the staff, and held the note clearly. It was like a beautiful note from a flute player.. All sopranos who, be cause they have not tremendous lung S?6." often discouraged, thinking that this one cause is to blame for weak tone, should comfort themselves when remembering what Zuvaski can do Of course, the biggest hit made in the rendition of the opera was in the big quartet In the last act. "Bella Fig Ila Dell Amore," sung by Gllda, Magda lena, the Duke and Rigoletto. It was stirringly rendered, so much so that It had to be repeated before the en thusiastic audience would cease ap plause. The tenor solo sung In Spara rucire s house by Maurini entitled "La Donne e Mobile" comes to us with the mOSt dellerhtful momrti-Ii&c . 4. n 11 was sung last year by one of the tenors with another compnny, but sung as Maurini sang it last night it -fell flat Angelo Antola, as the jester, acted and sang as if he were in love with his part, and ho probably was. His mel odious voice was much admired, as al so was his vigorous declamation. Al ceste Mori, In the double parts of Mon terone and Sparafucile, used his bass voice to good advantage, his low notes pleasing especially. For the short time she was on the stage, Adalgisa Bugai..ell!, as Madda lena, pleased with her work as con tralto. The fine orchestra materially helped to . make the rendition of the opera up to par. It is quite a far cry from the Oriental grandeur of Verdi's "Aida" to the Ital ian atmosphere of the same composer's "Rigoletto." The difference In the plots and orchestration is all the more remarkable when one considers even a part of Verdi's industry as a composer of grand opera. . The text or "Rigoletto" Is by Fiave and the story Is taken from Victor Hu go's tragedy of "Le Roi S' Amuse." At first it had been proposed that the lead ing part be given to the singer playing the part of Francis I, but the French revolution of 148 had taught the authori ties to be prudent, and the sponsors of the opera had to change the Kins; of France to the Duke of. Mantua, and everybody breathed easier. Verdi had the opera ready in 40 days and is con sidered to have done wonderfully melo dious work, considering the unpleasant nature of the" story that he had to tell In the form of music. The opera had Its premiere at Venice. March 11. 1851. with this cast: Rigoletto, Signor Colettl; Duke, Slgnor Beaucarde, and Gllda, Signora Evers. The story Is not an Ideal one to tell. Many Italians were observed In last night's audience, and, true to the tra ditions of their music-loving race, a hiss arose from their section when some too enthusiastic admirer downstairs insisted on applauding Zuvaski and Antola at a point when applause meant a spoiling of the orchestral and vocal situation. A complaint' has been heard that Mau rini. the tenor, has sung in one of the operas previously rendered, In place of Alessandro Scalabrinl. This is not so, according to Manager Sparks M. Barry, who said that the only time Maurini had sung In this city was as the Duke of Mantua, last night. This afternoon the Lambardis will re peat their previous- success, . "Madam Butterfly." and tonight their . engagement closes with I1 Trovatore." SKYSCRAPEHS GET BLOW SEATTLE'S COUNCIL- MAY PLACE HEIGHT AT 350 FEET. Citizens, However, Hold fp New York as Warning Against Con struction of High Buildings. SEATTLE, Wash., March 12. (Spe cial.) Agitation against skyscrapers Is stirring Seattle. One of the acts of the outgoing City Council at Its final regular meeting Monday night will be to consider an amendment to the building ordinance. The proposed change, if authorized, will permit the construction ot a building of a maxi mum height of 350 feet. Although the Council Is understood to be favorable to the amendment, there is well-defined hostility throughout the city to buildings of excessive height. New York is cited as an example of the evils of skyscrapers, and the dan gerous crush during the rush hours at Brooklyn bridge is held up as a warn ing to Seattle and other Western cities. On the other hand, Boston, which has regulated the height of structures in proportion to width of streets. Is put forward as an example of a city wise enough to learn from the mistakes of its competitors. If the plan Is carried through, new structures here -will ultimately over top the 15-story Alaska building. The question arose a fortnight ago over a proposal to increase the height of the Leary building to 20 stories, and it has been renewed emphatically by the an nounced determination of .the agents of L. C. Smith to erect a 26-story office structure like the Singer build ing at the corner of Second avenue and Yesler Way. When the owners of the Leary build ing suggested their Improvement, an amendment was drafted Increasing the height of class A buildings from 200 to 225 feet. Since this impending change aroused the opposition of con servative citizens, they may be ex pected to protest vigorously against the new plan of raising the limit to 350 feet. All the arguments, as to rental val ues, light, circulation of air and esthet ic appearance are being advanced; but the old Council will probably go out of business with the amendment to the building ordinance one of its most con spicuous acts.

Sam I IS London Paper Complains of British Diplomacy. ALLY ASKS SUBSERVIENCE Foreign Secretary Missed Opportu nity When He Failed to Insist That Jlikado Flay Fair in Manchurian Game. LOXDO.V, March 12 In a long article today on the Far Eastern situation and Jacob Schiff's recent speech in New Tork, the Morning Post complains strongly of ' lack of judgment by the Britieli foreign office and says that it is not surprising that Secretary of State Knox and Mr. Schiff are on the war path and accuse Great Britain of intriguing with Japan against the United States. "In plain words," says the article, "We are picking chestnuts out of the fire for Japan and encouraging her to assume more than her phare, as well as to trample on the principle of the 'open door.' The whole proceeding is suicidal and unnecessary. "If Sir. Edw&rd Grey had told Japan that It must play the game and cease the policy of grab in Mongolia, his recom mendation would almost certainly have availed." The Post contends that it will he a bad day for Great Britan when the Anglo- I Japan alliance leads her into a depend ence on Japan, and if a quarrel with the I United States is added to the existing . trouble the situation will be serious. "No empire can afford to begin 'hiring the barbarians'," continues the paper, "and an alliance on equal terms is one thing and masked subservience is an other. Yet British diplomacy Is sug gesting to the world that we cannot afford to do anything but our ally's bidding. The struggle over the Mongolian rail ways may define our position In the Pacific for many years. Let us hope that wise counsel will yet prevail In Downing street."
