ON TOUR WITHOUT FUNDS.
Boys Undertake to 90 Penniless
Around the World.


Just out Of college and without one cent
in the pockets of their blue jean trousers.
Richard ]. Cook and H. w. T. Eglin, two
local boys, started on trip around the
world yesterday on a wager.
The terms of the wager stipulated that
each boy must return to Washington within
one year, and must not beg or receive
financial assistance while en- route, but
must make his way by any means of travel
he may be able to employ.
The boys earned their first breakfast yes
terday by waiting upon the table at a local
restaurant, and later started for Baltimore.
At the Maryland city they expect to work
their way on one of the excursion steamers
plying between that city and Norfolk, Va.
From Norfolk they hope to work their pas
sage to England aboard cattle ship, and
visit Liverpool, France, Germany Switzer-
land. Italy and the ports of the far east.
They have not the least idea thai they will
have to meet a French police C )urt judge
in Paris nor walk Spanish before the police
Of Madrid nor explain why Mclean men"
are travelling in China without money.
Japan and the Philippines and the Hawaiian
Islands will be the last places where the
pair will make stop before reaching San
Francisco
Eglin is nephew Of Admiral Evans Of
the navy, and recently graduated from the
Virginia Military Institute, and Cook re-
Gently completed a course at the George
Washington University. Eglin, it is be-
lieved will later take the examination for
a commission in the Marine Corps.

Doctor Claims $3.50 for Services


Just 49,, 600 for 100 days medical attend
ance Is the sum which DR.. Samuel Thomp-
son Banes of Philadelphia has sought by q
lawsuit to recover from the estate Of the
late William L. Rainey, millionaire cork
manufacturer Of that city and Clevelandt
DR.. Banes could not be found yesterday,
nor anybody else who could explain the
reason for the charge. He is said to have
Instructed his New York attorney to bring
action there because the executor Of the
estate is a resident of that city 1t Is re-
ported that Mr.. Rainey and Dr. Banes
were for years intimate friends. The for
mer while in Philadelphia maintained bach
elor apartments at Broad and Arch streets,
where DIR. Banes was a frequent visitor.
About five months before his death Mr..
Rainey was taken i'll and DR.. Banes ac
companied him on a two months trip
through New England. Soon afterward a
break occurred between them which was SO
complete that DR.. Banes did not know of
Rainey's whereabout at the time of his
death. DR.. Banes is said to have spent
about two years trying to collect his claim
from the estate. Mr.. Rainey died in Au-
gust, 1904. The suit was the subject of
some comment among the local legal fra
ternity yesterday. Some lawyers, in an eff
fort to explain it, said they thought the
figures were due to the extreme caution of
the plaintiffs attorney in desiring to name
a sum which would not be less than a pos
sible verdict.

NEWS COMMUNICATED TO HIS
FRIENDS HERE.
Succumbed to Illness While Return

Buried at Sea.

August Petersen Of 1431 Chaplin street
northwest. the Swedish vice consul at
Washington, died at sea last Friday while
on his return voyage to the United States.
He was buried at sea the same day. Infor-
nation of his death, following prolonged
illness. was received in this city yesterday
by Bernett s. Jones. Mr.. Petersen's law
partner. Mr.. Jones went later to Asbury
Park. where the family of Mr.. Petersen is
passing the summer.
Mr.. Petersen was sixty years Of age and
was prominently identified with the city 8
affairs. He left Washington early in June
to visit his native country, from which he
had emigrated when he was twenty-one
years old. He was connected with the i'm
migration department of the Union Pa
cific and Northern Pacific railways for
about ten years, during which time he stud
led law. After receiving his diploma he re-

TO BAR MORMON CONVERTS.
The Ellis Island officials Surprised
by Orders.

Joseph Murray, who, as assistant fmmt-
grafton commissioner, is conducting the af-
fairs of Ellis Island, at New York, during
the absence of Commissioner Watchorn,
was somewhat surprised to receive from
Commissioner Generai Sargent yesterday an
order to take stringent measures looking to
the turning back of all women that Nor
mon proselytes might send here from Eu-
rope. 1t was already known that emissaries
of the Mormon creed have been making
converts in Europe, but there is no evidence
that there has been any attempt to bring
any of the converts into this country
through the immigration station on Ellis
Island. Special inspectors will be charged
with the duty of hating any Of the women
converts.
At the Department of Commerce and
Labor 1t was said that there was nothing
known about the case. There are two laws
under which Mormons may be denied adj
mission. One of them Is that they are
likely to become a charge on the public
and another that they are practicers of
polygamy. This cannot usually be proved
in the case of proselytes, and they usually
have not had a chance to practice the
creed But the mere fact that they are
Mormons and that they believe in polyga-
my will not keep them out, as this is re-
ligious belief in the eyes of the law and the
immigrant may believe what he or she
pleases in the religious line SO long as they
do nothing to bring them in conflict with
the federal statutes.
