"I note your advocacy of Theodore

"So far as I can judge the members

that the United States has no mono

the vote case for citizens of the

With Eibsrats Reception
TOKIO, Oct. .-Unexpectedly in
the arrival of the American Atlantic
fleet which has encountered thick and
stormy weather off the shore of the
Southern islands of Japan has caused
much disappointment owing to the
enforced postponement of elaborate
reception that had been planned for
the Americans. Some parts of the
program which provided for some
form of entertainment for nearly ev
ery hour of the time after the arrival
of the fleet will have to be abandoned
entirely, which means that none of
Saturday's programme can be carried
out as planned. The latest reports
from the Southern islands indicate
that the weather is now clearing up.

The aeronauts then opened their safe
ty valve, with the idea of bringing
the balloon down. In 'the meantime
the steamer had launched a small
boat to pick up the two men. The
balloon fell to the sea and was driven
by a strong wind away from the
steamer. The men in the boat pull
ed their hardest, and finally; managed
to get a line fast to the car, which
was being dragged amid clouds of
spray over the tops of the waves.
They luvfj on until the two aero
nauts had been rescued. The transfer
was attended with the greate-t dif
ficulty. As soon as they were safe
on board, the connecting line was
cut and the balloon, free of the boat,
went acreening away over the sea.
