Washington, May 27.—Proclaimed last night before a great audience of scientists from many cities as “the discoverer of a river in South Amer- ica one thousand miles long,” Colonel Theodore Roosevelt assured the Na- tional Geographic society that he had put this river on the map and chal- lenged all the cartographers in the world to disprove his achievement. ! The colonel had appeared before a | Washington audience on a previous " occasion as an explorer, but never as a discoverer, and he was cheered to ithe echo as he declared that the cartographers and geographers of all nations were wrong in their maps of the wilds of Brazil wherein he founa | and traced the “Duvida River” or, |as now more familiarly known, “The River of Doubt.” Scientists, the colonel declared, had 'attempted to dispute his discovery, Tracing on a blackboard with a piece of chalk the river of his finding, he declared emphatically: “We Put It On the Map.” “I say ‘We put it on the map,’ and 1 mean what 1 say. No map has ever vet shown this river. ocientists have said we might have traversed the river Tapajose or the river Madiera, but the fact is that some of our party went down one river and some went down the other, while we went down a river in between them which no map maker ever saw. 1 can direct any man where to find this river and rivers stay put, so that the discovery we have made may be verified. The colonel described in detail the hardships of his trip into the Bra- | zilian Wilds and particularly the hard- | ships endured in navigating the rapids | of “The River of Doubt” In the upper part of the river, he said, the rapids were so severe that it rejuired forty- { two days for the party to traverse one degree from 11:45 south to 10:45 south. During that hazardous trip they lost nearly all their foor and belongings. “Dr. Muller told me,” Mr. Roose- | velt declared, “that as a result of the work of the Brazilian telgraphic communication in western Brazil, all { the maps in existence of that part of the | country would have to be charged.” “Some of these maps,” the colonel continued, with a twinkle, ‘‘were drawn by fellows of the Royal Geo- graphical society and they are all wrong, too. Muller showed us that the whole region would have to be re-mapped. He said the telegraphic commission had discovered the sources of two new rivers, but they knew not where they went. One of these was the ‘River of Doubt,’ and Dr. Muller asked me why I didn't investigate it. I told him, ‘By George, that’s what I would like to do.’” In Campaign This Year. “1 shall be taking m campaign this year.” This was the promise of Colonel Roosevelt in a formal statement made at progressive headquarters here last night in the presence of most of the progressives lin congress. The colonel announced that he had told Governor Johnson that he would go to California if nec- essary to help the progressive ticket and would do all else he could for the party. | _The colonel was warmly greeted at the progressive headquarters, where James R. Garfield of Ohio, Senator | Clapp of Minnesota, the only senator | present, and numerous progressive | representatives were gathered. He talked with each one present, encir- cling a number tHat he had not seen for a long time. When he spoke for- mally, particularly praising the pro- gressives in congress for their work. “I am not going to have any inter- i view tonight, but there is a statement I want to make to the press.

Admires the Progressives. ‘“Men who face a certain crisis are either overwhelmed by it or grow in stature because of passing through it. You men have faced a real crisis. You have been tried as no other body ir either house of congress has been tried for sixty years past, and by that I mean not since the first men cham- ploned the principles that Abraham Lincoln championed came to congress. You have been exposed to every form of attack from both sides, and you have so borne yourselves as to force the respect of your enemies. So T speak from my heart when I say that my original feelinz of indignant sym- pathy with you has changed to a feel- ing of admiration, respect and a small degree of envy. “I shall be taking my part in the campaign this year. I will have to explain dozens of times a day that it is an impossibility to be in more than ferty or fifty different places at once. I have been asked by Mr. Lewis and Mr. Pinchot to open the campaign in Pittsburg June 30, which T am going to do. “I have written to Governor Hiram Johnson that if my presence is de- | sired in California of course T will Ro out there to fight for the ticket. Of course I will do all else I can, but it is impossible to particularize row. It is physically impossible to make more than a certain number of speeches, and 1 want to distribute them over as large an extent of ter. ritory as possible to meet as many different interests as I can. All of us on the outside have appreciated to the full the gallant fight you have 1.ade here in congress. Good luck 80 with you all.” A Nine-hour Record. Into nine hours, to Washington yesterday, Colonel Roosevelt crowded a speech on his South American expedition, a call on President Wilson, a political confer- ence of first importance with the pro- gressives in congress, a visit to the Smithsonian Institution to see the trophies from his African -hunt of four years ago, a meeting with a few members of the diplomatic corps and a dinner with his old friends. Be- sides, there were a dozen impromptu ' receptions from crowds in the rail- way station, at his hotel, in the streets and wherever else he chanced | to stop for a moment. during his visit | | Colonel's Collar Melts Away, ! | It was such a hot and busy day that the colonel's collar rapidly melt- | ed away, but he went through it all | without showing evidence of fatigue. | The crowds, the cheers, the struggles | to shake his hand, the photographers and all the rest were like old cam- paign days. The colonel smiled and | waved his hat continually, and fired out “Bully,” and “By George, that's fine,” at everything There was no doubt that he had a thoroughly good time. “Not a republican showed his head,” “he said, It was learned that before Colondl Roosevelt left Oyster Bay a republis can member of copgress telegraphed to him asking for un appointment. Colonel Roosevelt declined to discuss the matter, but it was understood he felt that too much awready had been crowded into the day to permit of such a meeting. His Visit With Wilson. Colonel Roosevelt’s visit with Pres- ident Wilson was perhaps of greater interest to the public than any other event of the day. The president ana his predecessor spent more than half an hour together and talked of most evervthing except politics. A good deal of the time was put in at telling stories. Colonel Roosevelt went to the White House dressed in a gray suit and a white felt hat. He had intended to go to his hotel to don more formal aftire, but there was so much else to do that he had to give up that plan. “GOOD ROADS D Washington, Pa., May 2 on 2,100 miles of highway through- out Washington county, in response to the call for volunteers for “Good roads day.” Among them were pro- fessional men, merchants and man- ufacturers, while no less than 500 students represented Washington and Jefferson college and the high schools. —Ten thousand men were working yesterday FIRST WARD BASEBALL.
