BRIDGEPORT, OOHM, THTOSDAY MAY 28, 1914
UARTERG
OF PAN
Owing to the trouble between the
Doited States and Mexico, and the
mediation of the three great South
' american powers, Argentina, lirazll,
ttnd Chile, the principle of .' Fan
amerlcanlsm has become of world
wide Interest Sunday will mark the
twenty-sixth birthday of ; the Pan
imerican Union, the International
D-nion of American Republics, for it
was on May 24, 1888, that the United
Congress passed an act calling f con
rention in Washington of official rep
resentatives of all the republics of the
Kbw "World. James Q.Blane, "the
flamed Knight" of , Ingersoll's ', elo
quent oratory, was the father of mod
ern Pan-Americanism. .Mr. ; Elaine,
who was then Secretary'' of State,
worked out the plans for the Wash
ington conference, which was held in
IS 8 9. just a quarter of a century ago.
Some of the most distinguished
Statesmen of the Latin republlos as
sembled, in Washington on October 2,
1889, but adjourned to make a tour of
the United States. , The Empire of
Brazil was the only monarchical gov
erexnent represented, but. Just four
Cays before the congress commenced
tta formal sessions "in Washington on
November 19th, Brazil, by a bloodless
revolution. Joined the ranks of Amer
ican republics. .'-
The first Pan-American Cojigress
t ontiEUftd for five months, and oted
to recommend to the various govern-'
taents tor adoption, among other
measures, a uniform system . of
weights and measures, a uniform
commercial coinage, treaties of recip
rocity, and a general plan, of le galia
litjr documents. Other projects consid
ered included a great , North and
South trunk railway; government
subsidies for steamship lines; uniform
. juarantine regulations, international
copyright and patent protection, and
a great Pan-American bank. '
Out of this meeting grew the influ
ential Pan-American Union, which
rsas for its purpose the promotion of
friendship between , the twenty.one
American republics, each of which
contributes to the maintenance of the
institution in proportion to popula
tion. The Union has its home in a
rT-Bj-niflcent edifice 1n Washington
which cost one million dollars. Three
fourths of the cost of the edifies was
it" frayed by Andrew Carnegie, and
khe various republics contributed to
-provide the remainder of the fund,
tornUe the land on which the"" 3uild
tns stands, worth $200,000, was Uncle
E s.ra'a gift to .. Pan -Americanism. In
ilj book, "The Pan-American, Un
jion, John Barrett, the Director-Cjen-Seral,
says of this building, in hi ded
ication to Mr. Carnegie: ' L
"Its chaste marble walls, its Blgnlfl
rcaxtt ornamentation; . its open patio
n which grows vigorously the "peace
ttree planted by .the hands of Presi
Ldant Xaft and himself, its sptfious
and dignified assembly hall, adapted
It International ' conferences, its
thread corridors, carrying- the '; flags
Ucd escutcheons of the American na
tions, and' its many busy offices, all
emphasize the nobility and useful
ness of his gift and make the struc-:-tnr
a fitting monument alike to his
Urwn efforts for the abolition o t war
p.mong all nations and to the fcripor-
(xaiiofl ci loo growings . ixia vtMjiwj ll. iur
. Pan-American -- comity and '. oom
rxnerce. - .;-..-
The second Pan-American Congress
hraa held in Mexico in 1901, witi sev-
ientsen republics represented, i.ni a
Izrtimher of important treaties were ne
gotiated. In the same year the Fan
Ajrjaerlcan EipoEttion at Buffalo, de
JigTMMl to fittingly illustrate the devel
jepmetit of the . Western Semisph ere,
igave a great forward impulse to Pan
J Americanism, although marred, la its
I closing' days by the tragio death of
President McKinley. The later con-
tgresses of the Pan-American. Union
aisKi of the various scientific and' edu-'
catlonal organizations it has Inspired,
,tte tours, speeches and writing of
tEoot, Knox, Roosevelt, Bryan,- Na-
I bueov Mnller and other North 'and
! Sowed American statesmen, and many
otbeor-agencies and influences put Into
i operation by the Union, have eerved
to enlighten , North Americans as to
wealth, culture and importance of the
Letts republics, to- largely dissipate
th prejudice of the Latins for the
Taunqula," and to Increase by many
millions of dollars the trade , between
the United States and its neighbors.
Or eat est triumph of all, in the opin
ion of Director Barrett, was the ten
dering of the good . officers., of the
South American powers in an. attempt
to settle Mexican difficulties.
"It signifies," said Mr. Barrett,' 'the
trne Pan-American spirit of getting
together among American nations,
and Is a long step in advance toward
all-American co-operation for . ; the
settlement of disputes among-; Ameri
can nations." ' .. ...
Pan-Americanism, to - vixyjng
forms. Is far older than the Union
which represents its modern e:tprea
iton. Monroeism, as set forth in
President Monroe's famous ; "doc
trine of 1S23, iwas Paxfc-Amerlcftoism
of a sort, but purely selfish, representing-
- the interests of the United
ft-tates rather than of the . Wnstern
Hemisphere. At that time the Latin
American countries had Just thrown
off the Spanish yoke, and the Holy Al
liance of Russia, Austria and Prus
sia, "animated by the precepts of the
riaenel of Jemis Christ." were olot-
f tbtc conquests in the New World. The
f TTcdted States, then in its infancy, nat
urally rearea tne conseTtxences or
such action on the part of the Euro
pean powers, and Monroe's message
of warning was inspired by the in
stinct of national self -protection,
rather than regard for the struggling
South American countries. -
It is highly improbablev however,
that the Holy Alliance would have
abandoned the scheme for the, ex
tension of the monarchical system in
America if England had not set up,
in the Canning doctrine, mueh ' the
same principles as were embodied in
the Monroe doctrine The United
States was not very formidable at
that period, and it was regari for
the sensitive feelings of John Bull,
rather than those of Uncle Sam, that
f made abortive the "benevolent as
similation" project of the Holy Alli
' ance. It was the boast, to no little
extent Justified, of George Carhing,
, the British Minister of Foreign Af
j fairs: "I called the New World into
ENTUR
ERICANIS
existence to redress the : balance of
the old.", -
Simon Bolivar. "El Libert ad or" of
a large. 'part of Latin-America, also
had his dream of Pan-Americanism:
"America for Americans" was his battle-cry,
but his Pan-Americanism was
purely Latin, and did not extend to
the United States "of the North."
Bolivar's first Pan-American Con
gress at Panama was a failure, and on
his death-bed the Liberator declared:
"America is ungovernable, and. those
who, served the v revolution have
ploughed the sea," ,V
. Henry Clay was the ' first North
American statesman to suggest aoon
ference of American republics, to be
held at Panama but no steps were
taken to put it into effect. At this
period most of the 'Latin republics
looked to the United States as .their
model and their powerful friend, but
the first Mexicanvwar and the Walk
er - expedition , into . Central ' America,
which was at least winked , at by
Washington, tended to provoke dis
trust of the ' "Tanquis." :; .'"Moreover,
Latin-American pride was hurt l by
Monroeism," which put- the Latin, re

Tokio, May,; 27. Although it is
nearly ; two years since the death of
the Emperor, Mutsuhito, it will be an
other two years before - his successor.
the y Emperor Yoshihito, 4s fully en
throned, according to all theJapanese
rites. - . The postponement of th cor
onation festivities, which had Ween ar
ranged for the coming fall, is bemoan
ed by the .whole Japanese people, but
the death of the dowager empress ne
cessitates a long period C of: national
mourning -and it is a sacrilegious
thing to use at the coronation, cere
mony the seed of rice that has been
ripened during a season of sorrow. , '
. A part of the coronation ritual had
been observed prior,-to the death of
the dowager , empress, however. The
Imperial ancestors had been duly no
tified -that. the ceremonies, were plan
ned for the coming fall, and upon the
death . of the Empress, the . .ancestors
were again visited at- their -various
shrines and notified that the ceremo
nies 'would be deJirred until 1916. -
In Tokio.v the ; Emperor, - himself
made the announcement before the
Imperial- sanctuary In the ' .palace.
Thia is the most sacred of the shrines,
where the spirit tof- the grand ances

of the -sun," is enshrined. -. Here al
so, are the. three ;aered 'symbols .of
the throne, the metal mirror, the
sword, and the comma-shaped jewel,
around each , of which is woven the
tradition that they were all handed
down by the , '"goddess of the sun,"
the Imperial grand ancestor, . to her
grandson, Ninigi-no-Tmikoto, on the oc
casion -of the latter's descent to the
island empire from the ; heavenly re
gion. When the sun goddess con
ferred these , treasures upon her
grandson she solemnly told him, to re

palace. - '- - ; ' ' , ' -' '-: -

(which was the most important of the
three, representing the spirit pf the

OPEN FRIDAY EV'G
FOUNDATION OF
LATE WILLlAFil HUNT PERRY
How a Poor Yankee Boy Who Began
Life As a Country School Teacher
Became a Captain "of Industry His
Part In . the Upbuilding of -Bridge-port:
. .
Many -old time residents of Bridge
port were pleased when they learned
that the widow of William Hunt Perry
had bequeathed $75,000 for the erec
tion ' to . his memory- of a memorial
gateway at Seaside Park. Those who
-remember " Mr. Perry in life declare
that such a memorial would be a fit
ting testimonial to one who did muoh
for Bridgeport and f or . his fellow cit
izens. with whom he 'eame in contact
here. The will of his widow, Harriet
Adelaide Perry, was admitted to pro
bate several days agot Her estate was
estimated to be at least. $500,000. ;
William Hunt .Perry - came v to
Bridgeport when the Wheeler & Wil
son Co, moved its' factory-f rom Water
town to. East Bridgeport. He was one
of the most prominent in that group of
citizens -in which were P. T. Barnum
and Gen. W. H. Noble," and 'who did so
much to build up . East Bridgeport as
well as : the greater city on the west
Bide of the Pequ'onnock river.- 1
Mr. Perry was of- that splendid type
of American manhood which is often
referred to as -'gentlemen' of the old
schoel.". He was noted for. being fair
and just in all his dealings and to the
day of his death enjoyed the love, re
spect .and co-nfldence of , his employes
and associates, and his word ' was al
ways as good as his bond V
r His life work represented that of the
Best in the citizenship and the nation.
He was born at Woodstock. Conn., in
May, f 1820, and : was descended , from
the same- stock -as the famous Com
modore' Perry., . Before he -was 20 he
became , a school 'teacher and taught
for six terms at Newington. The pay
of a good mechanic, then, as now, was
much better - than , that', of a school
teacher, and he gave up -teaching to
work ' in the -Colt revolve- factory at
Hartford. "V-'u t" "'i.,'
There he became a fkilful mechanic
and -later -a contractor' under the old
system in vogue, when contractors not
foremen, directed the workmen. ' , In
1855 he went to Watertown. and "en
tered the employ of, the Wheeler' &
Wilson Co. that had begun the manu
facture jot sewing machines there two
years-before. - ' -'--.'. r
He went, fhtb"; the firm's 'orHce as
bookkeeper ', arid ' when the concern
removed to Bridgeport, he came with
it, and in 1885 he was elected secre
tary, having been made a stock holder
some time previous. .

In July,. 1886, he was chosen treas
urer as well as secretary, and made
general superintendent of the factory.
This latter position he filled with sin
gular fidelity until" his failing health
forced him to give up active business
life. - - . v. . . ., ,.
In 1847 he married Miss Catherine
Storrs, by whom he had one daughter.
His first wife died in 1862. His daugh
ter by this marriage, who later mar-,
ried Mark R. Leavenworth, is- also de
ceased. During' the Civil war Mr.
Perry lent personal and financial aid
to the Christian. Sanitary commission
and in other ways did what he could
to aid the Union cause
In 1872 he married the widow of
Alonzo Mayher of this city By her
request a magnificent memorial, will
be erected to him. Although very ac
tive in business life he was of a re
tiring disposition and public life had
no charms for him. Besides his offices
in the Wheeler & Wilson Co., he was
at his death a director in the Bridge
port Hydraulic Co., Bridgeport Gas
light Co., and the Wood Finishing Co.
of New Milford.: 7r ''.''".: ;,. ; . : .' - ,
' In politics he was k Democrat. He
served for a number of years as park
commissioner and did much to pave
the way for the development of our
present -park system. So from another
standpoint it is truly' fitting . that a
gateway to his memory should be
erected as his widow proposes at the
Park avenue entrance to Seaside Park.
: Several timea he was offered the
nomination-for mayor and might have
been elected, but each time he de
clined, pleading the pressure- of busi
ness He was xery charitable and his
benevolent deeds., were, performed
without ostentation. With the possible
exception of Henry, Sanford and W. x.
Bishop, he was at his death the weal
thiest resident of Bridgeport.
William Hunt Perry died, at his
handsome home at Noble and East
Washington avenues, about 2 o'cleck
in the afternoon of 'May 9, 1899. , He
was 79 years of age and during the
last ten years of his life had 'been 'to
tally blind. 'For more , than eight
years- . lrdor 'to '-his death . he toad
been a suit erer" f rom Illness other than
his blindness and several times he was
reported dying, but ..always he "dis
played remarkable . recuperative pow
ers, so that his death was rather un
expected when it occurred 'L '

Although blind, Mr. Perry's mental
vision remained acute up to the time
of his death, and from his comforts! Is
home at Washington park, where he
spent the last years of his life with hia
wife, he was able to direct his business
interests. -
The present generation scarcely
knew him. but there are still living: a
few men who will attest to his fine na
ture and the prominent part he played
