DIR. Mendenhail Announces that Mt. Orizaba
Ia the Highest Point IN America.
Special TO the Indianapolis Journal
TERRE HAUTE, Ind, May 1s.-Dr. 7, G.
MeDdenhall. chief of the United States
geodetio survey and formerly president of
the Rose Poly technic Institute of this city.
delivered an address on tho Summit of
the Continent" before tho Indiana Academy
of Sciences In session here. In which he
made formal announcement that Nit.
Orizaba. Mexico. Is hereafter to be recog-
nized rs the highest mountain In North
America. The measurements were made by
DR.. Scovell. of this city. in 1891 and 1895. DR..
Mendenhall said they were thoroughly
proved by the bureau of which he is chief
and found to be absolutely correct. DR..
Mepdenhail has only recently measured
the hei ght of Mt st. Elias. in Alaska. and
says that this peak Is no longer to be ac-
cepted as the highest DR.. Scovell de-
scribes Mt OriZaba as rising from q plateau
nineteen degrees north of the equator and
about eighty miles from the coast. He says:
''Orizaba, the name of a city on the east
ern slope, Is the name by which the
mountain is best known TO Foreigners but
seen from distance the Indian name or
Citlaltepetl. star mountain seems
slngularly appropriate" Until recently
Popocatepetl, west of Orizaba. had been
considered higher. but both 1t and TX
tacchipuatl. also to the west. are consider-
ably lower. he says. In 1891 DR.. Scovell.
using railway levels TO 8, 1913 feet. carried o
line of spirit levels mp to $4,000 feet then.
using an aneroid barometer. made the ele-
vatlon 1S170 feet. In 1892. by triangulA-
tion from the tbirteen-thou sand foot
level he made the total elevation 1884
feet. DR.. Mendenhall gives the elevation
of Mount ST. Elias as 5000 feet. DR.. Men,
denhall said that he was glad to say that
the truth as to the elevation OF the noun
stains had been ascertained by members of
the Indiana Academy.

LAFAYETTF. Ind, May 1s-The trial of
William Mackessy. one of the opera house

Lamb saying the Postmaster-general bad
approved of all Donhsm had done. They
begin to realize that instead OF getting out
of the woods they are confronted with the
probability of complete reputation by the
Washington authorities. They know that
Roosevelt cannot be trifed with and that
he will make the truth known regardless Of
the good or Ill will of the Cleveland ad-
mnistration. What he will say will be
said officially and will attract more atten-
tion than has been given TO the case up to
this time.
