SHIP HAS GIRL ST0WAWkY
Columbia Brings First Of Her
Sex to Arrive in Years.
LASSIE WAS "AWFU' SICK"
Might Have Left Vessel at Mo
vile, but Really Didna Think
O. Coin Ashore. -

The first woman stowaway to come to
this port in many years was brought in
yesterday from Glasgow on the Anchor
liner Columbia. She is Scotch, eighteen
years old, and her name is Annie Nc
Kean. The lassie's presence was discov-
cred on Tuesday, when the Columbia was
three days out from Glasgow, and she
was taken at once before Captain Wads-
worth.
She was not even wee Dit afraid, ana
told her story with the unconcern of a
professional stowaway. The first ques-
ton asked by the skipper was why she
had boarded the Columbia without a
ticket That was easily explained. She
tossed it off in a sentence She had no
intention of sailing for America.
1T was like this. We ken said Annie
calmly, Mrs. David Mcdowell, Of
Glasga, and her five wee BARNS were a
sailin' for New York. Her mon was to
ioin her at Moville. She needed help
with the BARNS and luggage, an l went
along as far as Neville"
We'll. why did you not get off at Mo
Vile when we stopped there?" asked
Captain Wadsworth.
"Neel when we got there replied
Annie, seriously, Il was so awfu' sick
from the pitchin' o. the ship that l really
didna take time to think O. goin' ashore" p"
Some one would have he1ped you
ashore" said the skipper.
.'Weel, [ didna even think O that re-
turned Annie 'Ye ken, I was awfu'
sick"
There was only one thing that Annie
Mexican did think of during her season
of forgetfulness, and that was the fact.
pleasing to her. that David Mcdowell did
not ioir his wife aboard the Columbia at
Moville
1t occurred to Annie merely an af-
terthought that inasmuch as Mrs. Nc
Dowell had tickets for herself and hus-
hand and children, and inasmuch as Mr..
Mcdowell did not appear at Mov1lle, it
would not be we'll for his ticket to go
vacant over the Atlantic. So Annie
assumed that she might travel on the
TRANSFORMATION of the missing mon"
Annie did not want the skipper to send
a wireless message to her mother, as
that particular parent had married again
and was not oVerfrlendly with her
daughter. She had a married sister in
Glasgow. but she did not want the skip
per to go to the great bother of sending
wireless message TO her. The skipper
did send a message, however, and when
the Columbia docked yesterday he sent
the stowaway to Ellis Island, where the
immigration officials will probably de-
port her.
Mrs. Mcdowell and her five children
also face deportation. They have no
means of support. and are likely to be-
come public charges. The husband who
failed to appear al Moville is a ship
wright and because OF the strike at the
irish shipyards he planned to come to
America and seek employment at the
Cramp wards. in Philadelphia.

Extract From Recent Speech of United States
Senator GaILnger, of Nep Hampshire
THAT New Orleans is the natural starting
point of departure for American mails for Chile and
Peru for all Of the United States east of the Rocky
Mountains IS a manifest geographical fact. The
opening of the Trans-Andine Railway few months
hence will make New Orleans the proper point of
departure for such mails also for Argentina Though
not for Brazil) The distance from New York to
Buenos Aires by sea Is 1868 nautical miles, equiv
aIent to 6,807 statute miles The distance by rai
from New York to New Orleans from New Orleans
to Colon from Panama to Vap araiso, and from Val
paraso to Buenos Aires is 6.947 statute miles, as
compared with 6,907 statute miles by sea from New
York to Buenos Aires But the mail route via New
Orleans will have the advantage Of 2 ,322 miles by
rail, where the speed will be double that by sea.
With the steamship lines to be subsidized by Chile
and Peru IN operation, letters from New York will
reach Buenos Aires three days sooner by the New
Orleans route than by the alLsea route
From San Francisco by way Of Panama to
Valparaiso Is 1856 statute miles From San Fran
cisco by rail to New Orleans Is 2,482 miles and
thence by sea to the Isthmus and on to paraso is
f,CZO HueS LHOIe, OF slOI statute miles
in all. The mail route by way of New Orleans
has the advantage Of railroad haul of 1882 miles,
where double the sea speed can easily be made, In
vOlving saving of nearly three days on mails from
San Francisco to Valparaiso,
IF the New York mails for BuenOs Aires and
the San Francisco mails for paraiso canb carried
more expedihously by the New Orleans route than
by direct sea routes, then obviously the South
American mails from the great interior cities of the
United States will make an even greater saving in
time by the New Orleans route
The foregoing statistics demonstrate beyond
shadow Of doubt the geographical advantage of
New Orleans as related to the South American
ports for the facts which apply to mails, apply as
well to freight and passenger traffic.
1t also demonstrates clearer than could voum-
inous report that New Orleans IS and should be the
logical point for the Worlds Panama Exposition
which will be held to exemplify the greatest en-
qineerng feat the United States has ever undertaken
