.FIALA IS HOME AGAIN
Explorer Shows No Sign Of His
PriyatiOn and Exposure In
Arctic Region.
TALKS or PEARY EXPEDITION

viii Confer With Young ziesIer on
New Plan to Reach the Pole-OnIy
Party Wiling to Devote Five or Ten
Years to the Work Likely to Succeed.
What He Accomplished.
Looking as rugged and strong as If
he had just returned from summer
vacation instead Of having undergone
two years Of priyation and exposure
in the arctic regions Anthony Fiala,
who headed the 1iegler expedition to
the north pole and who once was given
up as lost, arrived in New York on the
White Star liner Oceanic on Wednes-
day.
Fiala at once made It clear he would
be glad to head another polar expedi-
ton, but he did not speak encouraging
" Of. the methods employed UP to this
time in such exploration He advanced
the theory that success in that direc-
ton could be obtained only by the en-
listment Of party willing to devote
five years, oil. even ten, to the effort to
discover the north pole.
The explorer viii have conference
with the son Of William ziegler, with
that remarkable plan i'll view The
boy, who has not attained bis major
ity, has said frequently since his IA
theirs death that he intended to make
polar exploration the study of his life
and to exert every energy in the direc-
ton Of carrying out the ambition Of his
parent He has full faith in Fiala, as
his father had, and the probabilities
are strong that young Ziegler Will be-
gin preparations for the fitting out Of
an expedition that viii have the north
pole or complete oblivion for its goal
There was reception at night in
Fiala's home. at 1856 Cumberland
street, Brooklyn, and the neighbors
turned ont iii force to welcome him
with an enthusiasm almost like TINT
accorded to a conquering hero return
ing to bis native land
FfaIa had been met at the pier by his
sisters, Amelia and Anna, and Went
with them at once to their home. tt
had been expected they would be ac-
companied by Miss Clara Puryear of
Nashville. who is said to be betrothed
to the young explorer, but she was not
there ard he declined to say anything
about his rumored Engagement. He
repeated stories Of his adventures al
ready told In cable dispatches, but the
most interesting things he had to say
related to She chances of the Peary ex-
petition in making a successful dash
to the unknown region which sur
rounds the northern axis of the earth.
II believe an expedition has poor
chance of reaching the pole without
large party, said he. This party
must be composed of men willing to
remain in that region for ave or even.
ten years. 1t might be necessary to
send other ships to act as stations. A
great point toward success is the train
ing of the men and dogs. Indeed the
dogs are invaluable, and in a large
measure on them depends success
THE Peary expedition should get
farther north than amy other. Another
way to get to the pole would be to have
a drift boat of coarse steel, but it must
be Of great resistive strength and able
to crush the ice. An expedition must
be equipped with wireless telegraphy-

BRYAN ON LABoR.

uood WIN tRfts
An audience Of $4,000, consisting OF
union workmen and their families, lis
tened to William J Bryan's speech at
the labor picnic az Omaha, Neb., Mon
day Mr. Bryan took as his subject
the dignity Of labor and said in part:
Il am glad to take part in your exer'
cises because / believe in organized la
Dor. / do not mean 80 say that believe
that organized labor will always ab.
stain from mistakes on will always be
wise in its decisions. I'd expect that
would be to expect perfection, and per
lection is not within the reach Of amy
of us. But believe that organization
is not only necessary for the protection
Of labor's rights, but useful for the ad
vancement OF the interests Of those who
toll.

ask for arbitration Of conditions be-
tween labor and capital There ought
TO be in every city, in every state and
In the nation a permanent arbitration

The laboring man also has a right e

In the universal emotion of salts
faction that the world experiences at
the conclusion of peace between Russia
and Japan there is natural DISPOSE.
tion to congratulate all concerned.
But most Of all are the thanks Of the
world due to President Roosevelt,
whose personality almost as much as
his high office, brought about the
happy ending. He has received con-
graduating messages from the prom-
inent rulers OF the world, as well as
from the great statemen. Alone
among the representatives Of the great
nations, he had at command the full
force of civilized opinion unweakened
by suspicion as to motive, and it was
this force that enabled him to accom-
plish the high aim which he set before
himself. He brought the two nations
together, set them down in sight of
all the world, fenced them around
from all interference, and at the criti-
cal moment held up their hands. He
brought to bear the greatest strength
Of the highest diplomacy, which after
all is nothing but a high purpose
frankly stated and nobly pursued.
Certainly the first hon0rs of the Ports
mouth conference belong to him.

CHINESE COACHED FROM THIS SIDE
Boycott of American Goods BY the Ceestas Only the Carry
inc Out of a Threat Made in Chicago
Last December.

- HICAGO, Aug. S.-The Daily News
L. today says: Disclosures made in
connection with frequent meetings
held at secret rendezvous in this city
has brought to light that Chicago has
played an initial part in instituting the
boycott now raging in China against
American manufacturers. Chin PAX
Sun, a leading Chinese merchant, out
lined the situation today. Rigid en-
forcement of the provisions of the eX-
ciusion act stirred the Chinese to dab
bling in economic studies. Three Chi
cago Chinese Of wealth were barred
from bringing their wives into the
United States. These examples and
others incensed the Chinese and, it now
develops, made possible the rapid
growth and successful development OF
the association that is now coaching
Chinese all over the world
