PRESIDENT PUTS IN QUIET
DAY, BUT PLAYS TENN s

OYSTER BAY, July 2.-Today was a
quiet one with President Roosevelt at
his home at Sycamore HILL The wealth
er being so warm, he spent most of
the day reading, after he had finished
official business.
Late in the afternoon the president
played tennis on the courts at the foot
of the hill in front of the house. 1t Is
evidently the intention to make very
little use this summer of the yachts
Sylph and Mayfiower, which are placed
at the presidents disposal by the gov
ernment.
Today the Sylph left her anchorage
in the cove and headed for New York,
where she will go to the navy yard.
The Mayfiower remains here anchored
further out toward the sound because
of her deeper draught. She, too, will
sail on Monday and will go to an an
chorage off Whitestone, L. l., where
she will be stationed during the months
of the presidents vacation, awaiting
orders.
These will be conveyed to her by
wireless telegraph from the New York
navy yard when the president wishes
to use her.

The interview covered wide range
of political topics. Secretary Cortel-

He said he had been personally and
officially associated with Mr.. Hitch
cock for many years and held him in
the highest regard.
No Other Developments
Beyond this there were no develop
ments today in the matter of the ma
tionaI chairmanship.

BAYLISS CREW IN SEATTLE
AFTER GRIM VOYAGE

Mountains of crystal-Forty-fiVe
Men Hourly Expecting Death.
Now in Need

BY Associated Press.
SEATTLE, Wash, July 2.-Thirty-
five men of the crew of the whaler VIII
liam Bayliss, crushed in the Ice OH the
gulf of Anadir, on the Siberian coast
Nav Is, reached Seattle today py tne
steamer Umatilla, and are in the CITY
penniless and out of work.
THE men had hoped that they would
be carried to San Francisco py tne
government under the law when pro-
yides for shipwrecked mariners, put
by reaching Seattle they nave lanueu
at the first American port except
Alaska. and the government can do no
more for them.
Henry Kruse, second officer of the
Bayliss, gives a graphic account of the
loss of the vessel.
'.The Bayliss left San Franciscol last
March," said he, "for the summer
whaling cruise in the arctic under
command of Captain H. H. Bodfish,
carrying 43 men in all.
''The run north was made without
incident until the vessel met "the ice
in Bering sea, April 4.
For twenty-one days the whaler lay
surrounded by such foes as those who
have spent fourteen years in these re-
gions on whalers have never seen be-
fore.
April % the Bayliss was near the
gulf of Anadir and the steam whaler
Bowhead lay in the ice about three
miles away.
Completely Surrounded
Surrounded by giant bergs from
the Arctic ocean, which lowered forty
feet above her decks, the whaler
seemed to those aboard to be caught
a.. fai in xyaIIaU
"As long as the sea remained calm
the vessel was safe in her snug ha-
ven, and until May 10 she lay in the
ice with little change.
ION May Is strong northwest gale
sprang up and it soon became appar-
ent to those aboard the whaler that
the big bergs were going to make
troublesome neighbors if they got too
friendly.
''The Ice closed in against the ship
end those aboard began to worry Tor
her safety.
"At about 10 o'clock at night 1t be-
came apparent that the end would
come in a few minutes and all hands
were ordered to abandon the ship.
within twenty minutes after this
order the Bayliss was crushed like an
egg shell.
"Gathered togethered in the shelter
of an ice hummock, we waited for
morning, taking such comfort as we
could from the irnprovised shelter.
MANY of the men had no clothing
except those they had on.
when morning came we set out
over the ice to find the whaler Bow
head.
Deep snow and mountains and
ridges of ice which must be passed
prolonged the journey so that seven
teen hours had passed when we reach
ed the whaler. There we were shelter
ed and cared for until May 81, when
the Bowhead found a lead to open
water and sailed for Nome, reaching
that port June 81"

ACCUSES TEXANS OF
SHOWING BAD FAITH
Southern Republic, Now in Revolt,
Will Ask the United States to
Punish Authorities of
Del Rio

CITY OF MEXICO, July 2.-Mexico
will ask the United States to punish
severely the local authorities of Del
Rio, Texas, and possibly others of the
state under whose authority they acted.
The grounds will be that the officers
knowingly failed in their duty by al
lowing persons who partook in the Las
Vacas raid to ride on to the Texas
side of the river uninterrupted and to
bring with them their wounded. Pun
ishment may also be asked for the
authorities and police of Del Rio for
allowing meetings to be held there for
the purpose of fomenting and planning
raids, murder and robbery in Mexico.
The new phase of the trouble on the
border was made public today by Min
lister Mariscal of the foreign office.
Bad faith toward Mexico by the state
of Texas in the recent trouble is very
strongly suspected by the Mexican
government.
"The action of Washington has been
the very best" said Mr. Mariscal today.
mot only has the United States gov
ernment shown itself willing and
eager to assist Mexico, but took quick
steps to move. troops to the border,
evincing a feeling of friendliness
which cannot be questioned but adj
mired.
Inc sincerity Oh leAdSB HS uSCloicu,
appears to be another matter. Our
doubts in regard to Texas have begun
to increase with developments. The
failure of local authorities to arrest
these men on the ground that their
offense was political in my mind has
no tenable excuse.
The minister called attention to the
fact that about 100 men held series
of meetings in Del Rio which could
hardly have taken place in secrecy. A
large number of raiders also returned
to- Del Rio after the trouble and car
RED with them wounded men, an act
that could hardly have been performed
in secret.
Mexico will probably ask for the ex-
tradition of a portion of the raiders
In this regard Minister Mariscal stated
that the Mexican government will wait
until the American government has
dealt with those offenders whose de-
linquencies come under the head of
an infraction of the neutrality laws.
He Will now ask for those whose acts
were wholly criminal and who should
be punished here.
All the acts performed by the raid
ers of Las Vacas and of Palomas were
those which are defined in the extra
dition treaty between the two coun-
tries" declared Minister Mariscal.

sentence for beating his wife, but was
pardoned after serving part of the
term.

DISTRICT DELEGATES.

Every few DAYS someone whose
interests are centered in other
States gives publicity to their opin-
ions as to what the local RepubH-
cans should do in the election of
two delegates from this city to the
city to the next National Republi-
can Convention. One would pre-
sumo from the estimate that is
placed upon the District delegation
that immaculate men should be Sc
lected. 1t is always the thief that
cries Catch thief!"
At the beginning Of the present
administration the cry went up:
None but clean men will be ap-
pointed to positions under the adj
ministration.' 1t now turns out
that not only are thieves appoint
ed to honorable positions, but mur-
.derers are given positions of honor
and trust. Any man that has killed
a ''nigger" or has DETAINED a mig
ger" or made a "nigger' know his
place, stands we'll under the Ad-
ministration and is placed in a po-
sition that will enable him to CON
troll the ''nigger.'
If the Congressman from New
Jersey will attend to his business
the Republicans of the District OF
Columbia and farther South will
select men OF their own CHOICE and
dictation, and not from the advice
Of outsiders.
The Washington bee., 1908-02-15
MUST STEP DOWN.

Mr.. Sidney Bieber, who declared
prior to the meeting Of the Nation
al Committee that no man ought
to serve on the Election Board and
be a delegate. Mr.. Bieber was
supported by The Bee and others
with that distinct understanding.
Certainly Mr.. Bieber would not re-
main on the Election Board as
chairman or anything else and be
a candidate Certainly, if Mr.. Bic
Der wants to serve the Administra-
tion~he should be man enough, if
he intends to be a candidate, either
for delegate or national committee
man, to step down and out and
take his chances with others.
The editor OF The Bee, Mr.. w.
Calvin Chase. is a candidate for
delegate to the National Republi-
can Convention. If the Republi-
cans Of this city don't want him,
they will stamp their disapproval
at the polls. Mr., Chase will sub
NIT his claim to the people and al
low them to decide. If other can
didates, white or coIored, can pre-
sent a better. claim than the Editor
OF The Bee, Mr.. Chase, he will be
satisfied. The Editor has sufficient
number OF friends TO see that an
honest count is made.
The way to have fair election
is to allow each candidate or each
ticket to have one Judge in the
box.
