LUSITANIA'S FEAT IS
UNEQUALED IN
HISTORY
World Still Talking of Speed
Record Made by New
Liner.
FOG'S DELAY COST
HER FOUR HOURS

New York, Sept. 17.--Net only New
over the recent breaking of the rec
ord for crossing the Atlantic. Never
has so large and enthusiastic a crowd
greeted an incoming vessel as that
which covered every available foot
of ground and overflowed into yachts
tugs and skyscrapers wherever there
was a chance to see the marvellous
quadruple-screw turbine steamer.
Lusitania, when she wormed her
way to her dock at the end of hey
first trip across the Atlantic.
Gaily decked with flags from stem
to stern. she came i'm all her majes-
ty up the harbor. Salutes from every
steam vessel In the bay were an
swered by the blasts from her pow
erful sirens and as she dipped the
Union Jack art, cheers arose from
the throats Of countless thousands.
Fog Delayed Steamer.
Capt Watt wore broad smile
when he greeted the ports officials.
Il am delighted with the trip" he
said "and we would have smashed
all records but for the fog. Notwith-
standing IL was a remarkable trip,
and is by no means the best the Lu-
sitania can do. With fair weather
she will clip several hours off the
best record"
The Lusitania is 79O feet long and
IS feet broad; she has "A displace-
ment Of $4,000 tons on load draft.
The horsepower Of her turbine en-
gines is $4,000. She can accommodate
$50 first class, 300 second class and
1900 third class passengers and
crew Of from 500 20 900. Her aver
age speed was 21.Sl knots (23.OI
miles, per hours.
Against the Deutschland's record
Of 22.44 knots on her fastest trip. the
Lusitania lost 1.43 knots an hour.
but she beat the Deutschalnd's maid
en- effort by l.42 knots and was only
40 minutes behind the shore-to-shore
record.

GOVERNOR WILL MAKE
FEW CHANGES AT
PRESENT
He Says He Prefers Immigrd-
ton Commissioner to
Present Board,
WANTS OFFICER TO
USE ALL HIS TIME

Santa Fe, " NJ, Sept. 17.-(Spec-
ial.) 1T is understood that most of
the changes in territorial official cir
cles, contemplated by Governor Cur
ry have been postponed until about
the first of the coming year. The
governor Is very busy at present with
the routine affairs of his office. Then
he has an appointment with the
president next month in st. Louis and
he has accepted invitations to be
present at some half a dozen county
fairs and the big territorial fair at
Albuquerque.

ernor Curry is an indefatigable work.
er and does not spare himself. He
is in his office in the capitol build
ing early and he is generally the last
man to leave the capitol.
Board of Immigration.
The governor when seen by a Cit-
zen representative would not discuss
many of the changes that rumor
says are to be made. He said that
as far as the bureau of immigration
is concerned, he favored the ap-
pointment of a commissioner of i'm
migration in preference to the pres
ent board and he thought the office
should be given to a man who could
devote his whole time to ii and make
his headquarters at santa Fe where
he could advise with the governor
The governor also stated that he
did not favor a newspaper man in
the position which he considers a
very important one.
