BILLY TAFT IN TEXAS
TO CHASE THEPOSSUM
Four Days Will lie Stay on
Ranch There.

Dallas, Texas, Oct. 18.-The Presi-
dent will remain in Texas until Oct.
"a, paying visits to San Antonio, Hous-
ton and Dallas. He will spend four
days on his brothers ranch, La Quin-
ia, near Gregory. For months prepa-
rations have been under way for his
reception, and he will have golfing,
hunting, fishing and a review of his
brothers fine cattle. 1t will be a fine
opportunity for the President to re-
cuperate from the fatigue of his long
trip.
He is TO have real seclusion, as only
few of the members of the party
will accompany him, and the news
paper men will have their headquar-
ters several miles from the ranch. The
only communication will be the pri-
waite telegraph and telephone.
The construction of the golf links
was the greatest puzzle for Mr. Green,
superintendent of the ranch. The
Scotch game proved an unknown guam
tity. So Mr.. Green brought on the
amateur golf champion of Texas, Rob-
ert Fl. Connerly of Austin, and another
expert, Frank NJ Lewis of San Anton
10, to decide where the President
should play golf. The experts now
have declared the links to be fit.
The President will hunt wildcats
Mr.. Green secured Texas and got a
pack of celebrated hounds noted for
their fighting qualities. The President
will have this thrilling hunting both
during daylight hours and after dark
But he will not have to hunt on
horseback Several large automobiles
4 recently reached the Taft ranch, and
the President is expected to go Oh
the chase in these. Some of the cow
boys down there no longer shy at an
automobile, and one or two of these
will always be with the President tc
1 show him how to tree the cats ant
then finish them. Then there are lots
of the Billy Possums' on the Taf
| ranch
Because the President is partially
responsible for bringing that ANNA
into the limelight, the men on th'
Taft ranch naturally want him to en-
ter the chase and land for him at leas
one. The possums down there are
eported to be fat, and the Presiden
lands a good chance of getting more
"possum and 'taters:.'

always kept her promises and no one
had a right to doubt her word.
Later in the day the king received
the address of parliament.
Intimates of the king informed the
Associated Press today that the new
monarch proposed to apply himself
with all the resources at his COM
mand to the solution of the Congo
situation and the development of that
dependency.
Albert 1, king OF the Belgians, with
his queen, Elizabeth, made a state
entry into the capital from Laeken
early this morning.
Cannon doomed forth a royal sa-
Lutte church bells rang out and hum
dreds of thousands of loyal subjects
lined the route of the royal march,
crying Long live Albert!" and Long
live Elizabeth"
When the procession arrived at the
chamber where the oath of ascension
was to be taken, the successor of
Leopold II was given a notable re-
ception by the assembled senators and
deputies. A feeble attempt of the So
cialists to make a republican demon
stration failed miserable.
At every discordant note a fresh
voices of the malcontents.
ExtoIs Predecessor
King Albert's speech from the
throne was an eloquent tribute to Leo
pold |, and to his uncle, the late
king. He declared the latter had per-
formed a prodigious work in Africa
with the constant purpose of enrich
ing the nation and increasing the eco
nomic resources of Belgium.
The new monarch eXressed his graf
itude for foreign sympathy at the
death of Leopold, saying that the
special missions dispatched to yester-
days funeral testified to the admira-
tion felt in other countries for the high
qualities of the late king.
Turning to the subject of Belgium's
future, King Albert said: "We must
continue our unshakeable adherence
to constitutional liberty and love OF
independence and thus hold sacred
our patrimony while advancing to-
ward the peaceful conquests in the
fields of labor and science
I'm the Congo the nation wishes
policy of humanity and progress. and
the enforced mission of colonization
cannot be other than a mission of
high civilization. Belgium always has
kept her promises and when she en-
cages to apply in the Congo a policy
worthy of her. none has a right to
doubt her word
King Albert continued: 1.-THE throne
has it's prerogatives and it's respon-
sibilities. The sovereign must be the
servant of the law and the supporter
of social peace. I love my country
and the queen shares with me an un-
alterable feeling of fidelity to Bel
gium, which we are inculcating also
in our children. Your welcome
touches me deeply and 1 shall en-
deavor to deserve the confidence
shown in me, and now before the

POLAR EXPERTS
ARE INDIGNANT
DECISION FOR PEARY SHOULD
BE SUPREME
eEoeRAPHIsTs RESENT APPEAL
TO DANES
Admiral SchIey's Demand That Cooks
Rival Present His Claims to
Copenhagen Causes Storm
of Protest
TAs ssociated Press1

WASHINGTON, Dec. 23.-Rear Ad-
miral Schley's demand that Commo-
dore Peary submit his polar data to
the consistory of the University of
Copenhagen for verification following
that body's reputation of DR.. Cook
has raised a storm among the MEM
bership of the National Geographic
society, which gave Peary a clean bill
of health.
Leading members claim that the
scientists of the United States would
be demeaning themselves If they ac-
knowledged that their findings needed
verifcation. There seems to be no dis
position to withhold from the Copen-
hagen board the data filed by Peary
but there is a well-defined opposition
to turning it over to the Danish
scientists for official action.
The argument advanced by Admiral
Schley that such examination would
remove all question of doubt from the
claim of Peary is accepted as rather
gratuitous. The records Of Peary have
been found unimpeachable by Amerl-
can scientists, and therefore the ques-
ton is not whether Peary is right, but
whether the scientists are wrong.
Gannett's Opinion
Nothing can be gained by SUBMIT
ting Commander Pearys data to the
University of Copenhagen" said Pro-
fessor GannSt chairman Of the COM
mittee that passed upon Peary's
proofs. "and I don't see any reason
why he should.
"The committee that passed upon
his papers is fully qualified to arrive
at an unbiased conclusion notwith. =.
standing that almost every member is
acquainted with Commander Peary,
and l need not say that the investiga
tions were carried on along scientific
lines without regard to the personality
or standing of either claimant"
Rear Admiral Chester, who attacked
Cooks data some time ago, denounced
the proposition of Admiral Schley as
absurd" He declared he did not be-
neve that the University of Copen
hagen would consider making a re-
quest for the proofs and that the
whole matter was a mares nest. He
also drew attention to the fact that

UCHIDA ARRIVES
AT WASHINGTON
NEW AMBASSADOR DELAYED
BY BILLIARDS.
Japanese Ambassador Who Succeeds
Katsura Says He Has No Imme-
date Problem to Solve
as Diplomat
Associated Pressl

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2S.-Baron
Uchida. newly appointed ambassador
from Japan to this country, arrived in
Washington today from San Francisco.
The baron was delayed twelve hours
in his transcontinental trip by snow
and blizzards which he encountered,
he said, from the Sierra Nevadas to
the suburbs of Washington"
Baron Uchida began his work in the
diplomatic service of his country in
Washington in 1883 as an attache. He
spoke today Of the pleasure it afford
ed him to come back as ambassador to
the country where he had done his
first diplomatic work
Il feel very much at home in the
United States" he said, ''as though
am among friends, you know.
"There is no pressing diplomatic
question for me to deal with in the
United states just now" he con-
tinued, "and / know of nothing of inn
portance that will come up in the i'm
mediate future The relations between
the United states and my country are
growing constantly better.
1.-THE friendly feeling between the
two nations is becoming stronger every
day, l think"
What about the question of immi-
grafton between the two countries?"
immigration Settled
THAT is satisfactorily adjusted" he
replied I'VE are keeping at home the
laborers and poorer emigrant classes
of our country, and only students and
members of the mercantile and other
privileged classes are coming here.
"As a consequence the number of
Japanese in this country is decreasing
our laborers are returning regularly to
Japan and none are coming to take
their places here. The laborers return
to Japan simply because of desire
to get back to their native land, There
will be no problem to deal with in that
connection i'm this country. The eX
listing agreement with the United
States on this subject has no fixed
date of expiration.
"I was impressed with the welcome
given me in California, where I met
Governor Gillett. Mayor Taylor of San
Francisco and the prominent men of
the coast and was entertained by
them. There was nothing but cordial
ity and good feeling. There is no Jap
anese question on the Pacific coast
now"
The baron declined to discuss the in
terests of Japan in China or Manchu-
ria or the relations of the United
States with those countries. There
was nothing new to be said on the
subject, he explained.
The prosperity of Japan, the baron
said today, is on the increase. AS to
the Japanese naval program he had
nothing to add to what already was
publicly known.
Los Angeles herald., 1909-12-24

the Royal Geographical society of
Berlin had acknowledged Peary as the
discoverer of the pole and that the
latter society had planned to honor
Peary in Berlin next year. Also he
touched upon the verdict of the Due
d'Abruzzi. himself an explorer of no
small fame. that Peary had placed
foot on the apex Of the world, as addi-
tional proof why the demand of Ad-
miral Schley might well be ignored.
A cablegram from Copenhagen to
J. Howard Gore, a member of the
special committee named to look into
the Cook data. unofficially announced
that the Danish scientists had sent
their report on Cooks data to the Ma
tional Geographic society.
The report and the field note book
of DR.. Cook probably will be reviewed
by the committee early next month.
