Henry vignaud Says DIR. Ruge Knows
Little About Americas Discovery.

PARIS, Sept. 6.-Henry vignaud. first Sec
rotary of the United States embassy, has
joined issue with the Germant savant. D..
Sophus Ruge. of Dresden, who criticised
Mr.. vignaud's theories regarding Tos-
canelli's part in the discovery OF America.
Mr.. Vignaud's pamphlet handles. DR.. Ruge
severely. pointing out errors In fact and
judgment and charging him with enter
ing into the controversy quite unprepared.
The character Of the paper places Professor
Ruge on the defensive.
Mr.. Vignaud, who is vice president OF the
American Society OF Paris, has made a life
long study of the discovery and early his
tory of America. In September. 1901, he
published an important work, the fruit or
untiring investigation, in which he claimed
TO expose a fraud which fer centuries has
hidden the real beginnings Of Columbus
project. and to prove that the famous
documents ascribed 10 Toscanelli, the
learned Florentine astronomer. which were
supposed TO have served as a guide to
Columbus, were fabricated. He submitted
excellent reasons Cor believing that Toscan-
ELI never wrote the famous letter OF 14st
to the KIM of Portugal and never traced
the chart alleged TO have accompanied II.
C~olumbus's design, he demonstrated, was
not founded on any scientific basis. but
on positive m as to the existence

bat. In a moment the fight began. Joe
Martin, the pitcher of the white nine, for
a time, was the under man, and Purcell
