NICHOLAS OF RUSSIA IS THE GUEST OF VICTOR EMMAN-
 UEL OF ITALY.
Twenty-Three Thousand Troops Guard the Emperor's Train---ls Met by
 Special Commission.

Racconigi, Oct. 2S-Emperor Mich olas of Russia is the guest tonight pf King Victor Emmanuel
 He arrived here thi safternoon and was met by the king and notable essemblage of high officials. The two monarchs embraced and then proceeded to the royal castle, where Queen Helena, the dowager Duchess ot Genoa, and the Princess Letitia, surrounded by the ladies in waiting, received the emperor who kissed their hands.
 After brief exchange of courtesies Emperor Nicholas withdrew to his apartments. Al the kings dinner this evening, at which covers were laid for thirty-six, the emperor expressed his warmest appreciation of the re- ception which had been rendered him. A special commission of generals met the emperor on the frontier and on the way to Racconigi the imperial train passed through Ia double line pf 23,000 men, who guarded the tracks.
 Four thousand troops were massed along the short road leading from the station to the castle Everywhere the royal guest was received with great enthusiasm He looked the picture of health and seemed to thoroughly en. Joy the cheers that greeted his ar rival His welcome by the king was exceedingly warm and he responded with similar show of affection.
 Not the slightest unpeasantness has occurred to mar the emperor's visit, but considerable anxiety Is now felt because of the arrival here of the socialist deputy, Signor Morgari, the originator of the campaign against the emperor of Russia. Because of the fact that Signor Morga1i is a mem Der of the chamber the police were unable to keep him out of the city.
 h an interview this evening, how. ever, the socialist leader said he would avoid provoking a disorder but that he intended to deliver a speech of protest against the visit as private meeting here. He will also speak at a meeting to be held at Turin tomorrow.

WORD FROM WI BY WIRELESS
PREDICTS GREAT FUTURE FOR
PAN-AMERICA.
Chinese Minister Interviewed at
Sea-Comments on Marvels
of Inventive Age.

NEW YORK. September 15-Wu Ting
fang, Chinese minister to the United
States and Peru, sent out an in
terview by the United Wireless Telegraph
Company from the Royal Mail steam
packet Oruba, Off Cape Hatteras, last
night. while on his way up from Colon.
Mr.. WI said that he had been In Peru
for three months and had enjoyed his trip
northward to New York. via the Isthmus
of Panama, very much. Mr.. WI said he
saw a great future for all the South
American republics on the west coast
after the completion OF the canal. The
far east. too. he thinks, will be wonder
fully benefited by the canal.
China will be able to get nearer to
New York." said Mr.. WI, 'and the peo-
pie of the two countries will get to know
each other better.
Il have been interviewed in many parts
of the world. but this is the first time by
wireless, which, TO my mind. is the most
wonderful invention of the age. l am
beginning to realize that there Is moth
ing impossible in this age OF aeroplanes
and north pole discoveries. ] think that
in few years every one will be flying
through the air instead of walking.
Mr.. WI added that he would stay for
some months in Washington, awaiting his
successor. and then go back 10 China

QUESTIONS ABOUT THE POLE
WHAT AREA, IF ANY, DOES
UNITED STATES ACQUIRED
Held by Some Officials That No
Claim Can Be Made to Ice
Bound Sea.

What is the allowable area of the
north pole?
In other words, how much territory or
frozen sea has the United States ac-
aulred by the discovery of the pole by
Cook or Peary. or both?
These questions were submitted to the
officials of the coast and goedetic survey
today. 1t was desired to learn IL the
north pole area Is as large as that of
Rhode Island with its $50 square miles,
or Is as great az the area Of Connecticut.
which has approximately 5000 square
miles within its border.
The querist also asked II the area Of
the pole district Is just as large as the
diameter of the Flagstaff which was
planted there by Cook or Peary. as some
people have contended. To these ques-
tions the reply was given:
THE north pole is merely an mag
mary point-a geographical position. AS
such it has no area. There can be no
claim, even by right of discovery, to an
open sea area. However. that is a ques-
ton Of International law. But no claim
of a serious nature can be made to any
area there. The fact that the sea about
the pole is covered with ice precludes
Sucn a Clalm
How can the explorer know when he
is exactly at the north pole. otherwise
the ninetieth degree Of latitude?" was
another question asked.
The elevation of the sun at any given
time in any given latitude is known by
calculation was the reply. 80 it is
simply necessary to determine the ele
walton Of the sun above the horizon at
noon on any given date, apply certain
corrections of a minor nature. and the
result added to the dechnation is the
latitude
1t was further stated that on polar
expeditions the explorers have no means
for accurately determining the position
of the north pole. But they can deter
nine within from one to three miles of
the goal. To the uneducated observer
the fact that to the eye the sun remains
at the same elevation throughout the
day. proves that the observer is at the
north pole.
1t was also stated by the officials of
the coast and goedetic survey that at the
north pole the sun revolves on a hori-
zontal line. To the eye it is seen at the
same level all day. 1t rises backward
and seems to revolve in a rising spiral.
AS to the planting of the American
flag at the pole. 1t was stated that by
reason of the floating ice the flag may
by this time have drifted many miles
from the pole.

cANADA's POLE CLAIMS UP.
Parker Asks House Of Commons
What Dominion Possesses.

Special Dispatch TO The Star.
LONDON. September 1a-Sir Gilbert
Parker having failed in his first attempt
to get the government to commit itself as
a claimant for the north pole, asked an
other question in the house of commons
today with much the same end in view.
He wanted to know. in effect. whether
Canada claimed all the territory lying
north OF the United States boundary and
intervening between it and the pole.
Col. Seely, under secretary for the colo
MES. replied that the government under
stood that Canada had not made any
formal declaration of the exact limits OF
Canadian possession horthward, .but that
1t is believed Canada considers itself en-
titled to the claim of all the land re-
ferred to by Sir Gilbert Parker.

Frank Wilbert Stokes, we'll known

He is modest to a fault a man who
sinks all thought of self in his desire
to be helpful TO others. 1t would take
a very strong argument to convince me
that man like that was a falsifier.
His conduct in the present situation
is a fair example of the kind of a man
he is. He has schooled himself to per-

himself in check in circumstances so
exasperating that I marveled that he

in the present case is due to his dis

Il can readily understand how he has

Cook, knowing him as l do. For more

He is so convincing in his persua-
sive qualities that he was enabled to
induce men of wealth to contribute
large sums of money for his eXpedi-

treated him with generosity. The press
