MISS ROOSEVELT
REACHES PORT
DISTINGUISHED PARTY HOME
FROM ORIENT
Vessel Carrying President's Daughter,
E. H. Harrlman and Other Promi
nent Persons Makes Voyage .
In Record Time
By Associated Press.
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 23.— The Pa
cific Mail Steamship" company's liner,
Siberia, arrived at this port today
direct from Yokohama In the record
breaking time of 10 days, 10 hours and
28 minutes, the fastest previous trip
between the two places having been
made by her sister ship, the Korea,
in 10 days, 11 hours and 5 minutes.
The Siberia's time is 28 minutes more
than that of the Empress of Indlo's
record from the orient to Puget
sound, though the distance covered
was about 275 miles greater.
There were many distinguished pas
sengers on the Siberia, among them
being Miss Alice Roosevelt, U. S. Sen
ator Newlands of Nevada and wife,
U. S. Senator Warren of Wyoming,
Representative Longworth of Ohio,
Brig. Gen. H. T. Allen, chief of the
Philippine constabulary; E. H. Harri
man, president of the Southern Pa
cific; R. P. Schwerin, vice-president
and general manager of the Pacific
Mail Steamship company, and Miss
Mabel Boardman and Miss Amy Mc-
Millan of Washington, D. C, the lat
ter being traveling companions of Miss
Roosevelt.
M. Shoralshi, vice-president of the
Toyo Kisen Kalsha Japanese steam
ship line, also came over from the
Orient.
Although It was expected that Miss
Roosevelt would spend a few days In
and around San Francisco all previous
plans were changed during the voyage,
and neither her party nor that of Ml*.
Harriman landed in this city at all. In
stead they were transferred from the
Siberia to the tug Arab and taken di
rect to the Oakland mole on the eastern
side of the bay. They left there nt 3:22
o'clock this afternoon for the east over
the central route of the Southern Pa
cific, connecting with the Union Pacific
and Chicago & Northwestern lines, via
Chicago, for their various homes. An
attempt Is being made to beat all pre
vious records between Yokohama and
the big eastern cities.
.'.;' Had a Good Time •
"All the presents that I received wert
merely Inexpensive mementoes of the
trip, such as any girl traveling In
strange countries would receive," said
the president's daugter. "There really
was nothing so remarkable about my
trip, and I cannot understand why so
much fuss was made about it. I had an
exceptionally good time and enjoyed
every moment that I was away. The
only thing I regret Is that so many
nonsensical stories were circulated re
garding me."
Mr. Harrlman said: .
i"Our visit to the orient has been one
not only, of much pleasure to us all, but
interesting and instructive. We were
treated by all classes, especially in
Japan, with the utmost courtesy ana
consideration. While our visit was
solely for rest and recreation, we were
enabled to learn many things which
will help In our future relations.
"Japan is working out her own des
t/ny. Her people are intelligent and
alive to the interests and working in
close alliance and will continue devel
oping the commercial welfare of the
whole country.
"China is beginning to wake up,
which awakening has been brought
about by the development of railroads
constructed during the last six or seven
years. Were It possible for that coun
try to organize and the people work
together as has been the case in Japan,
the development might be quick and
phenomenal.
"Korea is still a problem, and her
destiny will probably be worked out by
the aid of Japan. My opinion is that
the Japanese are the dominant factor in
the orient, and that there will be a
large development, though not Imme
diate. If the United States Is to partic
ipate therein to any extent it will have
to ibe by co-operation between Its
statesmen and those representing Its
business Interests and by close commer
cial alliances with the Japanese."
Alaska Cable Defective
By Associated Press.
SEATTLE, Oct. 23.— The cable ship
Burnside returned to this port for coh!
today, reporting new and serious faults
in the Alaska cables between this city
and Sitka, of such a nature that alt
communication with Alaska is cut off
until the Burnside can return to north
ern Waters and repair the faults. The
line will be out of commisison for at
least five or Fix days. The entire cable
from Seattle to Sitka is pronounced by
experts to be of poor quality and it
may have to be replaced by a new one
tit a cost of about half a million dol

New Los Angeles Cut-off
By Associated Press.
SAN JOSE, Oct. 23.— Unusual activ
ity in connection with the broad
gauging of the Southern Pacific tracks
to Santa Cruz and applications for
an eighty-foot right of way apparent
ly for a cut-off from Mayfield to a
point near Campbell's, has led to the
report that the Southern Pacific com
pany Is preparing to put on a "Los
Angeles flyer". to run by way of Santa
Cruz and Monterey, cutting out this
city.., The new route, it is said, would
clip several hours oft the present time
and enable the company to compete
successfully with the Santa Fe.
WHY DOES
A BABY CRY?
Because it is either hun-
gry or in pain. Properly
nourished it will usually grow
up right and be comfortable
—that's the principal thing
for a baby. If its food lacks
strength and nourishment
add Scott's Emulsion at feed-
ing time. A few drops will
show surprising results. If a
baby is plump it is reason-
ably, safe. Scott's Emulsion
makes babies plump.

NEW ELECTRIC, PROJECT
Kern-Rand Company Plans Transmls.
sion of Power Line to Rands,
burg
By Associated Press.
BAKERSFIELD, Oct. 23.— The Kern
Rand company, a corporation recently
formed under the laws of Arizona and
having offices In Los Angeles, is "plan
ning the erection of a power plant on
the south fork of the Kern river and
the construction of an electrictl trans
mission line to Randsburg.
A claim to riparian rights to the
water flowing in the south fork at a
point near Powers' ditch was filed this
morning. A notice that the government
has granted to the company forty acres
of land at the point mentioned for a
power house has also been filed.
The articles of Incorporation of the
company have not yet been filed in this
county. The papers recorded up to this
time are signed by J. W. Eddy, the vice
president and general manager. There
is very little doubt that the riparian
rights claimed by the Kern-Rand com
pany will be contested by the Kern
County Land company and the prob
able outcome will be that the new com
pany will agree to return the water of
the river unimpaired to the lrrlgators
and undlmlnlshed in quantity.
NAVAL REVIEW AROUSES
JAPANESE ENTHUSIASM
FIGHTING SHIPS LINE UP FOR
THE MIKADO
Included In Togo's Fleet Are Captured
Russian War Vessels — American
and British Commanders Received
in Audience by the Emperor
By Associated Bress.
TOKIO, Oct. 23.— The naval review to
day passed off without tho slightest
hitch. It was a most impressive sight,
not, however, on account of the size
and number of the ships, but as a con
glomeration of fighting craft fresh from
the war and crowned with victories oj
unprecedented magnitude. Three hun
dres and eight warships, including the
foreign Russian battleships Peresviet
(renamed by the Japanese the Sagami),
Poltava (Tango), Nicolai I (Iki), the
Ironclads General Admiral Apraxine
(Oklnashlma), and Admiral Seniavlan
(Minoshlma), twelve auxiliary cruisers,
including three chartered vessels,
twenty-eight torpedo boat destroyers,
including the captured Bedovl and Rye
shitelni, seventy-seven torpedo boats
and five submarine boats, were drawn
up in six lines.
The emperor on board the cruiser
Asama, led by the protected cruiser
Yaeyama and escorted by the gunboats
Tatsuta, Chihaya and Manshu, passed
along the front of the first line, which
was headed by the battleship Shikishl
ma, Admiral Togo's flagship. When
the Nicolai I, which was at the end of
the line, was reached the cruiser Asa
ma headed due north and then in a
westerly direction, entering- between the
second and third lines and afterwards
resumed its original position. During
this maneuver Admiral Togo was at the
emperor's side.
The emperor then received in audi
ence on board the Asama, Admiral Noe!
and the captains of the British and
American warships present (the battle
ship Wisconsin and the cruiser Cincin
nati). The weather was fair but it was
misty on the water. Popular enthusi
asm was aroused to the highest pitch.
Besides the thousands who witnessed
the naval pageant from all sorts ot
craft In the bay, all the available
points of vuntage along the shore wert
densely covered with eager spectators.
The spectacle caused much joy and
satisfaction among the Japanese, espe
cially in the breasts of those who re
called that only 40 years have elapsed
since at that very spot no warships ex
cept those of foreign powers had ever
floated. It is believed that the leview
will give a powerful stimulus to nation
al education.
At the conclusion of the review at
4:30 p. m. the emperor returned to
Tokio.
SETTLERS ASK FOR RELIEF
Complain of Damage Done by Canal
of California Development
Company
By Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 23.— The secre
tary of the Interior has received a pe
tition from several citizens of the Im
perial Valley in California asking for
relief from the damage done to their
property by the California Development
company, whose method of building a
drainage canal through that region is
alleged to have resulted in the forma
tion of a lake covering 600 square miles
and in the loss through inundation of
25,000 acres of farm lands.
The California Development company
was organized in New Jersey in 1896 to
divert the water of the Colorado river
into Mexico and deliver it to settlers on
the public lands In the Colorado desert
now known as the Imperial valley. The
company built a canal, from the Colo
rado river north of the Mexican boun
dary into Mexico for eleven miles, where
it emptied into an old river channel by
which the water thus diverted would
return to this country. In 1901 they be
gan to deliver water, but in 1903 there
were many complaints from the set
tlers about the scarcity of water. The
company In 1904 made another canal
from its canal Into the Colorado river
at a point about four miles below the
American line. But this diversion from
the Colorado river was made without
nny controlling works, and during the
winter and spring heavy rains washed
out the canals bo that 86 per cent of the
water flowed to the valley and only 14
per cent went through the river to the
Gulf of California. It will take at least
six months to install adequate works
to turn the river back into the old canal.

MOSCOW, Oct. 23.— A meeting of rail

adopted a resolution to continue the
strike until their demands are satisfied
and the arrested members of the union
are released. Forty detachments of the
railroad battalion? haye nrrlved here
for locomotive service on the Moscow-

Operations have ceased on ■ the

Trains on the Windau railroad have
ceased running and Moscow is com
pletely isolated from the rest of the
empire.
There is enough meat in Moscow only
to supply the demand for a week. All
commercial correspondence has to be
conducted by telegraph.
Prince Hilkoff, In receiving members
of the deputation sent by the strikers,
talked to them familiarly. He said that
while in England and the United States
he worked sixteen hours daily in order
to increase his salary, and pointed out
the superiority of the production of
foreign workmen in quantity and qual
ity at the same wages received by Rus- 1
sian workmen. The deputation entered
a protest against any man being com
pelled to work sixteen hours a day, be
cause such lang hours precluded the
opportunity for educational improve
ment. Prince Hilkoff, in reply, said thnt
even with sixteen hours a day it was
possible to devote at least one hour to

MME. EAMES IS
AN ENTHUSIAST
GREAT SINGER TALKS OF
HER ART
Famous Soprano Enumerate* Essen
tials Necessary to Success of an
Operatic Career — Delighted
With Concert Tour
"Good health, perseverance, enthusi
asm, vitality and, above all, boundless
ambition."
Mme. Emma Eames, America's great
est soprano, named these five as the
essentials of an artistic career.
Emma Eames was seated in a cosy
apartment of her private car when a
reporter called last evening, the person
ification of health, enthusiasm and the
other qualities which a few moments
later she declared to be. necessary to
success. ■ . ■. . .
Not only famed for her wonderful
voice Is this sweet singer, but also for
her remarkable beauty. She was lean
ing against a soft cushion which threw
her face into bold relief, revealing to the
best advantage the beauties of feature
and expression. Great coils of black
hair were drawn simply back from her
brow and now and then a stray lock
escaped Its customary place when she
nodded her head as she grew more and
more enthusiastic about one phase or
another of her work.
Concentration Her Watchword
"You see," she said, "I do believe that
to win success one must be endowed
by nature at the start with certain
qualities, but tho trouble with many is
in a dissipation of their energies."
"But did you ever study any other
form of art?" asked the reporter.
"No, never," she replied. "I put all
of myself Into my singing. Concentra
tion Is the watchword on my banner. It
seems to me that it takes all one's
thought, power and will to accomplish
one's ambition.
"I believe the five qualities that I
named are necessary to a successful
career, though I suppose in later years
when the enthusiasm has subsided a
bit and the ambition is satisfied, the
knowledge one has gained, the strength
and poise which come with success may
take their place.
"I am enjoying so many happy mo
ments. Think of it! My first concert
tour, and everywhere I go the people
are so good. One cannot help being
happy. The years spent in study and
the harder years in opera are more than
repaid."
"But what are you going to sing,"
asked the reporter.
"The things the people love," she re
plied without hesitation.

BIG STRIKE IMMINENT
Fall River Textile Situation Is More
Serious Than It Has Been
Since January
By Associated Press.
FALL. RIVER, Mass., Oct. 23.— The
textile situation here is more critical
tonight than it has been at any time
since the great strike last January. The
Manufacturers' association, represent
ing all the print cloth mills in the city
with the exception of those controlled
by M. C. D. Borden of New York, held
a meeting this afternoon and voted to
refuse the request of the textile council
for a direct restoration of the wage
schedule which prevailed previous to
the 12*4 per cent reduction of July 26,

be considered at a special meeting of
the textile council tomorrow night,
when it is probable the entire matter
will be referred to special meetings
Wednesday evening of . all the unions
represented in the council.
Many of the business men fear that
another strike will be decided on by the
unions.
