PAGE TWO. ASTORIA, OREGON, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 3, 1901. WILL ERECT ' MONUMENT To Mark the Sites of the British and American Camps on San Juan Island. BOTH NATIONS PARTICIPATE! Celebrate Peaceful Settlement of Boundary Dispute, Accom plished Through Emperor William I as Arbitrator Victoria. B. C Sept. 2. Professor Edmoml S. Meany, of the Cnivershy ef Washington, is here conferring with the British Columbia Natural History Society with a view to securing their co-operation in the erection of two monuments on San Juan island, in the gulf of Georgia, one at the site of the American camp, and one at the site of the British camp. These are to commemorate the amicable ending of the boundary dispute of the last. century. According to Prof. Meany's plan the unveiling of the monuments will take place on October 21. the date on which Emperor William I. of Ger many, the arbitrator between the two natioVis. gave his decision in favor of the United States. Prof. Meany has succeeded in Interesting President Roosevelt, who has conferred with the secretary of the navy and he has prac tically promised to send several United States warships to San Juan for the occasion. Prof. Meany is endeavoring to get Steamship Company, which left Sandy Hook at S; 12 a. n. on June 14, and passed Eddystone on June 20 at 1:10 a. m. She thus broke all former records and accomplished the remarkable feat of making 3112 miles In five days, 11 hours and 58 minutes, the average speed being S3.5S miles an hour, the quickest time ever made by any steam er over this route. The best record made in one ,day during this ti p was 564 miles, covered on June IS. Ac cording to a dispatch from New York. this same steamship broke her own best record by an hour and 4a minutes on the trip which terminated at New York early Tuesday morning. The following Is the record for speed made at different times within the last few years by the four great German ocean flyers: Kaiser Wilhelm der Gross? (Lloyd), 23 knots; Kronprlnx Wilhelm (Lloyd), 23.47 knots; IVutsch land (Hamburg-American line). 23.51 knots. The Deutachlnnd's record of 23.51 knots was for a long time the fastest voyage ever made across the Atlantic. Now the Kaiser Wilhelm II holds the world's record.
