M|KKELSEN' SHIP
REPORTED LOST
Meet with Disaster in Search for
Bodies of Greenland
Expedition

COPENHAGEN, Aug. 1S.-Captain
Elmar Mikkelsen's expedition which
sailed June 20, 1909, on the Danish
Arctic ship Alabama, to search for the
bodies of Erickson Greenland expedi-
tion, was wrecked during the winter on
the coast of East Greenland, according
to advices received here today. Cap:
tain Mikkelsen and the entire party
were saved and succeeded in effecting
a landing on Shannon island, off the
coast of King William land. From this
point they were recently rescued by
another ship.
News of the escape of the party and
their rescue was brought to Tromsoe
by steamer cruising in the polar sea.
The expedition for which Captain
Mikkelsen was searching when the
Alabama was wrecked was that of My
lus Erickson, who perished in Novem-
Der, 1907, while trying to return from
the north coast of Greenland by way
of the inland ice. He was accompa-
MED by Lieutenants Haven and Broe-
lund. Lieutenant Broelund's body was
found in a crevice near depot of the
expedition and was buried there but
the other bodies were not found owing
to heavy snow fall.

ItaIy's Rulers Are Appalled, by the
Spread of the SCourge in
South of Country
POPE is GIVING CHURCH AID
Stories of Distress Continue to
Come from Plague StriCk-
en- Province
(Associa ted Press)

TURIN, Aug. 18.-King Victor En-
manuel and Queen Helena are display
ing great anxiety over the outbreak of
cholera in the south and the king has
given orders that he be kept constantly
informed of conditions in the infected
regions.
The queen is especially touched by the
stories of the distress among the peo-
pie of the province of Bari Della Pug
Ito and has ordered that assistance be
rendered them for which she will pay
from her private purse.
King Victor Emmanuel is reported to
have said:
'If the scourge increases, instead of
going to Montenegro to take part in
the festivities, I shall go where my
people are dying"
1t would be a serious thing if the
king determined to proceed to the chol-
era district, for the queen has said
that she would share the risk of the
king. Her majesty accompanied the
king to Messina and to Avellino when
they were overthrown by earthquakes
and on those occasions she insisted up
on being at the front, not sparing her
self any hardship.
The pope has sent instructions to all
the bishops in the infected territory to
employ every means in their power to
aid in combating the scourge. They
are especially instructed to enforce hy-
gienic measures and use their influence
in the isolation Of suspects.

CONDITION OF GAYN0R
SHOWS FAIR PROGRESS
Nothing Has Developed to Delay
Mayors Recovery

NEW YORK, Aug. 18.-Nothing has
developed to indicate that Mayor Gay
nor is not making fair progress toward
recovery. Only two bulletins were is
sued today,--the first at o'clock this
morning and the second at $3.50 o'clock
tonight. The latter one read:
"At $50 o'clock p. m. all conditions
favorable. (Signed) ARLITz, STEW
ART, DOWD and PARISH"
The mayor probably will be allowed
to sit up again tomorrow and it is
probable that Ruth and Marian, the
youngest of the Gaynor children, will
be allowed to see their father.
Mayor Gaynor passed a good night
and was comfortable, the physicians
said today. A report had it that the
lodgment of the bullet in the throat
was causing paralysis, but this the at
tending physicians said was not true.
Luke e. Wright, former secretary of
war, called u the hospital today. He
chatted with Mrs. Gaynor and saw
the mayor briefly. Thomas Gaynor,

Immediately after he was notified of

CLAIMS SPALDING LEADS
WORKS IN LATE RETURNS
San Diegan Figured a Winner in
Advisory Vote for Senator

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 1S.-A. G..
Spalding has defeated John D. Works
in the advisory vote on United States
senator to succeed Senator Flint, ac-
cording to the Gail. With only few
districts missing the Spalding total
stood 41,142 at midnight, with Works
at 3S, 300. It is not thought that Works
can overcome this lead.
The fight for the nomination for
secretary of state is still in doubt with
Frank Jordan claiming that he has
won by a small margin.
The same tabulation that decides
the senatorial fight gives Friend w.
Richardson the nomination over w. w.
Shannon for state printer Richard
son has 35,695 votes while Shannon has
been given 34,4S5.
B. Grant Taylor. the insurgents
choice for clerk of the supreme court,
is leading William II. Bemiss, the reg
ular, by a vote of 41.S75 to 36,493.
Edward Hyatt's vote reached 59,376,
while Allison Ware fell nearly 10000,
with 49,SS0.

VISIT Of DUCHESS
THRILLS NEWPORT
Duke of Roxburghe's American
Wife Wins Smiles from
Even King George

NEWPORT, R. l., Aug. 1S.-Newport
society is experiencing real thrill
over the arrival of the Duke of Rox-
burghe and his duchess, formerly Miss
Goelet, once a belle of the Astor-Van-
derbilt set and the daughter Of Mrs.
Ogden Goelet of Newport and New
York. Miss Goelet was once New
port cottager herself, courted of score
of the scions of Americas richest ram
lilies and at various times, according
to Dame Rumor, looked with more or
less favor on some of her American
suitors But one day she sailed away
to England, met the Duke OF Rox-
burghe, was heroine of real love TO-
nance with the titled Britisher and
married him in 1908, with the full ap-
proval of King Edward and the warm
smiles of Queen Alexandra, who sent
the Young bride a necklace of pearls
and became her loyal sponsor in Lon
don society. At King Edwards court
the American duchess held a more Sc
cure place than the pretty Duchess OF
Marlborough, formerly Consuelo van
derbilt. Even King George ana queen
Mary. who are said to dislike Amer
leans. are cordial to the Duchess or
Roxburghe. Her married life has been
happy, and as a leader of the Engllsh
"sInart set" she has always remem-
bered her American friends and cnarm-
ingly entertained many OF them on
their visits to London.
Newport cottagers are now vlelns
with each other to make the stay or
the duke and duchess in America
pleasant one Many entertainments
have been planned for them and the
late summer gayeties at Newport VIII
almost entirely center around their
visit The duke and duchess are ex-
nected to visit a number of resorts
along the Atlantic coast as wen as
the principal cities OF the Onlleu

BELIEVES GALLAGHER
TO BE IRRESPONSIBLE

NEW YORK, Aug. 1S.-Counsel for
James j. Gallagher, the discharged
city employe who shot Mayor Gaynor a
week ago last Tuesday, said tonight
that DR.. John Reilly, who has been re-
tanned by the Knights of Columbus, of
which Gallagher is member, spent an
hour with him this evening and came
away with the belief that he is ire
sponsible. The doctor found there is
a depression of the skull which would
seem to involve an injury. The prisS
oner had an exaggerated idea of his
own Importance.
Although Gallagher, when arrested,
seemed to exult in his deed. his war
dens now say he spends much of his
time praying for Mayor Gaynor's re-
coVery.

Latest Advices Report List of
a. Deaths

BARI, Italy, Aug. 18.-The gravity
of the situation in the province of Bari

place. There have been ten deaths at
BarIotta, one at Corigiola, two at San

demic is of a violent type and the fear
is general that it will be difficult to
check.
