WOULD SAIL TO THE POLE.
Amos Bonsall Says Peary's Discoveries
Confirm kane's Theories.

Amos BonsaIl Says Peary's Discoveries
Confirm kane's Theories.
In commenting on Commander Rob-
ert e. Peary's story of his dash to the
north pole Amos Bonsall, the sole sur
vivor of the Elisha Kent Kane eXpe-
dition. declared recently that he be-
lieves it is possible to sail to the pole
in a properly equipped vessel.
"Peary's narrative simply confirms
the theory l have had since the Kane
expedition" continued the aged arctic
explorer. II believe, and DR.. Kane be-
lieved. that there was an open polar
sea. The tides. the currents and the
movement of the ice all seemed to be
strong presumptive evidence that be-
yond the straits discovered by our ex-
pedition in 1858 at the north of Green
land lay a great open body of water.
THAT my theory is correct is dem
onstrated not only by the number of
leads that at times threatened to baf-
he Peary and which constantly imper-
lied him and his men, but by the very
significant fact that he failed to touch
bottom at the north pole with 1.5OC
J fathom line. With these facts demon.
! strated it is my firm belief that a ship
as well equipped and protected as the
Fran or the Roosevelt should be able
to weather the passage to the farthest
| north"

land. So it will be seen she always
knew railroads too.
1t was while she was young belle
of Ogdensburg society that she met
e. II. Hartman entirely by chance.
Mary Averell was the first girl he met
He had journeyed to the little city on
business. Some friend took him to an
informal reception. 1t was her first
season. He was the first really busi-
nesslite suitor. That was in 1873.
A year later, when the announce
ment was made Of their engagement,
Ogdensburg began to inquire who e.
81. Hartman was. They learned that
he was young fellow in Wall street
with prospects" He was neither very
wealthy nor very prominent. They
were married in st. Johns church in
Ogdensburg, Sept. 10, 1879. thirty
years ago. and entered upon a life con-
spicuously happy and truly American.
Six children were born to them, of
whom five still survive. 1t was de-
ightfully happy family. Father moth
er and children always and openly ex.
pressed their fondness for each other
As wealth came it spoiled neither par.
ents, boys nor girls.
Mrs. Hartman, who can trace hel
American ancestry back to 1850
brought her husband financial aid In
his early struggles in the market
| when aid was most valuable to him.

licity were moving. Mr.. Wood was
not experienced in the matter of
bringing to the attention of the
world a new Exposition. But he
adopted common sense methods, in
duced every resident of Seattle to
become a publicity agent for the Ex
position, and Immediately every let
ter, every pamphlet, which went out
of Seattle bore the A.-Y.-P. seal,
and tucked inside the letters was in
teresting literature concerning the
coming fair. Then he introduced
throughout the Northwest the slo-
gan What helps Seattle helps the
Northwest; commercial clubs and
other public bodies as we'll as indi-
vidual citizens took up the cry; all
became boosters and in short time
hundreds of thousands of advertis-
ing pamphlets were going into every
nook and corner of the United States
as we'll as Canada, Europe and the
Orient.
Returns soon showed that Woods
campaign had been effective. East
ern passenger agents wrote and
wired that they had all the people
they could possibly care for; they
were no longer concerned about the
number of westbound passengers;
what they needed was equipment to
haul them. Then came June l.
opening day-with close to one hun.
dred thousand people in attendance
Since that time the average attend
ance has been close to 10000. That
put the stamp of success on the ex.
position, also on the work of James

IdADE A.-Y.-P. FIR SUCCESS
James A. Wood, of Seattle, Director
of ExpIoitation.

1t is conceded by experts who
have made the matter of expositions
their life work, that the A.-Y.-P.
Exposition has been as well and as
wisely advertised as any great fair
ever held in this country or Europe.
The success of an exposition is to
great extent judged by it's attend
ance. According to present esti-
mates about four million people will
have attended the A.-Y.-P. up to the
time of closing, October 16. The
man largely responsible for this
great attendance is James A. Wood,
who has filed the position of direc-
tor of exploitation. Mr.. Wood is
Seattle newspaper man, who for
many years prior to his present work
occupied positions of responsibility
with leading newspapers in Seattle
and other cities of the Northwest.
When he took over the publicity
work of the exposition seven months
prior to the opening-June 1.-THE
complaint was widespread that the
fair had not been well advertised.
Hundreds of prominent Seattle peo-
pie returned from trips throughout
the United States with the complaint
that they had heard nothing of the
| coming exposition during their trav-
| els. They had made inquiry every
where, had visited railroad Offices
! and other public places of informa
! ton seeking literature about the fail
but no information was to be OBJ
tanned, no literature to be had. The
) exposition people at home admitted
the truth of the charge.
Within one week after Mr.. WOOD
succeeded to the position of director
of exploitation the wheels of pub

TALKING CAUSE OF RECALL
Crane Indiscreet in Telling Govern

Washington, Oct 13-Charles X.
Crane, of Chicago, Minister to China,
yesterday was practically deposed by
demand from Secretary Knox tot
his resignation I.
Mr.. Cranes unexpected and hith@
erto mysterious recall to Washington
by Secretary of War Knox, when he
was at the point of sailing from San
Francisco to assume his duties in
China, was occasioned by develop
ments involving the question of Mr..
Cranes fitness for the post.
The state department had in hand,
it is said, what it regarded as more or
less convincing evidence that Minister
Crane, on the eve of his departure
for the Far East, became responsible
for the publication in Chicago news
paper of what the department viewed
as a most indiscreet discussion of the
attitude of the United States toward
two treaties recently negotiated be.
