Although Choir Is Insulted by
the Seattle Eisteddfod Man
agement, Many Thousands
Attend an Open Air Concert.
COMMITTEE SAYS CHOIR
WAS AFRAID TO APPEAR
Salt Lake Citizens Are Amazed
at the Treatment Accorded
Local Singers and Give
Their Opinions in Matter
ACTION IS APPLAUDED

CEATTLE, Aug. 29.-Sympathiz-
- ing with the Salt Lake tabernacle
choir after the insult offered last
night by the Eisteddfod committee,
twenty thousand music-Iovers tonight
taxed the capacity Of the Alaska-Yu-
kOn-Pacific exposition open air am
phitheatre to hear the Utah visitors
sing.
Thousands of others unable to Sc
cure seats, stood on the outside Of the
high board walk and waited patiently
until the last note of the nights con-
cert had died away. When the pro-
gram was concluded, the throng
turned away satisfied that it had
heard the best music ever presented
in Seattle.
Outside of the Eisteddfod committee,
the opinion seems unanimous that the
Salt Lake singers got a queer deal
last night. The audience which taxed ths
capacity of the A. I. 2. auditorium,
awaiting the appearance of the tabernacle
choir last night, was in ignorance of what
had happened.
The people left the hall disappointed.
thousands had paid admission only To
hear the Salt Lake singers, and when it
was learned that the MOrmOus had been
insuited and turned baCk by the police
at the doors Of the hail. because they
refused to pay admission to the contest
in which they were to have been the
chief ATTRACTIONS, denunCiatiOu Of the Els
teddtOd committee was heard on every
hand.
Alleges Cowardice.
The local committee says the salt Lake
singers were afraid to compete and
feigned an insult when turned back from
the doors of the hall The committee is
alone IN this contention. Outside of the
EisteddfOd management, sympathy with
the MoTmOns is unanimous.
St Mark chorus Of this city carried
away the hOnOTs by default but they
were robbed of a share of the fruits Of
victory Because there was no compel
ton, the EisteddfOd committee grew ne
nuriOus and cut the promised $1,000 purse
TO 500. sharp criticism is also heard on
that score.
Reuben W. Jones. president Of the day,
SAID; The MOrmons got the opinion that
they were the main drawing card and
when they saw defeat staring them in the
Idce-an1 deIedt by little local choir,
at that-they took the first opportunity
to squeeze out of a tight place"
When asked whether the Salt Lake sing
80 -L0L JIe-l N5lu -HrE were expected 10
ray admission to the hall. Mr.. Jones said
he supposed they had been, but he was
not positive.
Evan Stephens, director of the Taber-
nacle choir says: I'VE knew nothing
about being expected to paw admission
until we arrived at the doors of the audi
tOriUm. I uphold my singers in the stand
they took. We were driven away by the
police, and that alone IS an insult"

BRONX OFFICIAL
MUST STEP OUT
President Louis F. Haffen of
Borough Found Guilty of
Misconduct in Office.

Albany. n. Y, Aug. 29.-Finding him
guilty on charges of misconduct in office
and neglect of duty, Governor Hughes
has ordered the removal from office cf
Louis F. Haffen, president of the Dor
oUgh of the Bronx in New York.
The governor finds that President Half
fen abused his discretionary power, in
failing to enforce the time clauses Of
contracts for public improvements; that
public funds IN his department were
wasted by loading the pay rolls: that
there was political jObbery in the building
of the Bronx borough court house, and
that Haffen was interested in the i'm
prOvement of a public highway.

at Bitterfeld.

At that point Count Zeppelin met the
craft and was greeted by the crown
prince, representing the emperor. The
emperor witnessed the arrival.
Two mOnarchs of the air, Count Yep
pelin and Orville Wright, met at Berlin
I this afternoon. They were introduced by
the monarch of the German empire. Mr..
Wright was surprised at the emperor S
technical knowledge of flying machines.
In a talk with Count Zeppelin, Mr..
Wright expressed admiration for the Won
deTful airship the count had constructed.
He said he would like to see expert
ments with smaller craft on the same
system, however, as vessels such as those
used by the count were too expensive.
From one end Of Berlin to the other the
shout, Zeppelin is here!" rang out.
Berlin Is Happy.
Berlin was happy as the count had an
nounced that at 1881 he would appear
over the Temple of Parade Grounds.
The airship left BitteTfeld early in the
morning with the count, his nephew, En-
gineer DueTr. who had naVigated her from
Friedrichshafen, and eight others aboard.
The motors worked perfectly, and the
trip to Berlin was made without mishap.
Wittenbrug and Juterbog were passed
amid the cheering of thousands. Potts
dam was thronged with crowds.
The roofs of houses. church towers and
the open spaces SWarmed with people, who
cheeTed and waved as the vessel passed
church services. The emperor and en-
press had mOtOred from the dedication
service of the newly-built garrison church
AIrship Is Sighted.
They arrived at the special tribune con-
structed i'm the center of the immense
field as the bows of the airship appeared
over the edge of the parade ground. The
hundred thousands who had gathered
there sighted the craft at the same mo-
ment, and a roar Of cheering went up.
The church bells rang out, and the mill
taTy band played the national anthem.
Zeppelin. meanwhile, had descended to
a low altitude and carried out a series of
intricate evolUtiOns gracefully in full view
of the people. Then the balloons nose
was turned toward the city, over which it
circled for two hours in all directions,
executing every manner of maneuVers
and ascending and descending, sometimes
coming so close to the eartn that the
spectators could see the faces Of the oc-
Cupants.
TIE royal party proceeded to Tegel,
where a small company gathered around
the imperial group on the shooting range,
which was destined to be the landing
place The city councillors, military Off
cials and the foreign attaches, including
Captain 5. G. Shartle, the attache Of the
American embassy, assembled there to
await the counts arrival.

he readily gave an audience; When he
was asked for an interview, be promptly
said: I am ready to answer, questions?
I am ready to talk. What do you want
me to say?
I am out here to see the people and
talk with them about the forests and
the agricultural interests in the west,
but if you will see me again just before
I leave the city I may be able to tell
you more than I can say right now. I
do not see much of anything to talk
about just yet. I have not yet met any
Of the people and I do not really know
yet just what they want.
1--WE met with some of the stOckmen
of Wyoming at RaWlins last, night, but
there was nothing of particular impOr-
lance to come before the meeting It
was given to cursOry discussion of graz
ing lands. I understand that some of
the people of Idaho are under the i'm
preston that the national forests are
covering a great deal of country and to
the injury of the agricultural pursuits.
So you see, our especial mission Of in
