4 THE SAN FRANCISCY CALL, SUNDAY, OCTOBER 17, 1897. NANSEN TALKS OF THE ARCTIC Interviewed Just Prior to His Departure for America. Has Great Faith in Andree and Hopes HeIs Quartered for the Winter. And the Daring Sclentist Also Says Peary Is in the Front Rank of Explorers. Special Dispatch to THE CALL. NEW YORK, N. Y., Oct. 16.—A cable to the World from Liverpool says: Dr. Nan- sen, the Arctic explorer, sailed on the Lucania to-day for New York. Your cor- respondent found him a day or two ago at his pretty house at Lysaker, near Ch iiania, and had a chat with him about his projected American tour. The explorer was sitting at his desk dictating answers to his numerous correspondents, but he good-naturedly yielded the time necessary 1o give such information as his visitor de- sired. “Iam trying to get as much of my scien- tific notes ready for publication as possible before 1 sail for the United States,”” he said in perfect English. *“I am working fifteen hours a day at present, and am still be- hindhand.” Questioned as to his programme for his American tour Dr. Nansen sai “My urrangements are altogether in the bands of the Redpath Lyceum Bureau. My present expectation is to be back by the middle of January, but it is possible I may extend my stiy,so 1 may be de- layed until the beginnin: of February. I am looking forward to my visit with keen pleasure. I know how interested Ameri- cans are in Arctic exploration, and I have had plentiful proofs of their appreciation of what I have been able to achievein that d. My wife is very sorry that she can- not accompany me, but we have our baby to consider, and we have decided it to be inadvisabie to subject the cbild to the in- convenience of such a trip.” Here Nansen remarked that when he was ayoung man about 22 years of age he was offered a position with Professor Marsh in New Haven, Conn., and before e went to Greenland he was offered & pro- fessorship in the State University of In- diana. Being asked what he thought of Lieutenant Peary's projected expedition, D-Nansen said: T have only seen the sho-t dispatches in the newspapers. To pass an accurate judgment Ishould have full details of his plans, which I have nor. But if you ask me what I think of Lieutenant Peary asan explorer, I may tell you that, judging by hisformer achievements, I regard him as stending in the very front rank. I have no doubt bis plans will be cleverly laid and courageously carried out.” “What is your theory about the fate of Andree?” was asked, “1 think Anaree is still alive. Itisnot cessirily a bad sign that he has not en heard from yet. My ideais that he probably landed in the North Ameri- Archipelago or on the northern shores of America, or the Siberian coast, In either case he will have to go into winter quarters and await spring in order to be able to communicate with the out- side world. You must remem ber that he carried provisions with him for three morths. Ob, no; I think it altogether 100 s00n to be hopeless about him." *‘Have you formed anv plans for a future expedition yoursel 2" *No; I have not bud time todo so for one thing, and I am not yet done with the results of my last expedition. I cannot say as yet, in fact, whether I shall ever form any further plans in that direction,” *'What about the Antarctic circle?” “Ah, yes; that is a fascinating ques- tion, but I am not practically conversant with it, at present at any rate. In fact, Iam not considering the possibiity oi further Arctic exploration at all at pres- ent.”” “From your experience what country do you find displays the deepest interest 1 Arctic exploration?'” “Eneland, undoubtedly. But interest is very keen in all English-sveaking coun- tries.” ‘‘Have you felt any ill effects from the privaticns you have endured 7’ “Not the siightest; do I look it? What do you think of me?”’ Here Dr. Nansen arose from his seat and stood uprignt; a megnificent speci- men of manhood; tall and spare, mus- cular, athletic lookin«, his fair skin clear as a child’s, his blu- eyes shining with amusement &t the quastion. “Do_you imtend your baby to follow _ycu; footsteps in tue land of eternal ice?” Nansen smiled as he answered: *‘That is a long way ahead. Why, the north pole may be accessible as Christiania, more or less, when he is old enough to think of doing anything.'’ Here Dr. Nansen wheeled his chair around again to his desk, and before your representative was well out of the room he was dictating airesh to his secretary. e REPLIES TG GORMAN, Editor Abell of the Baltimore Sun Says the Letter of the Leader Is a Mere Campaign Trick. BALTIMORE, Mp., Oct. 16.—The Sun to-day publishes a lengthy editorial reply to Senator Gorman’s letter, in which it says: “No person of ordinary intellizence can read the letter from Senator Gorman to the Sun, which is published in ovr adver- tising columns to-day, without at once per- ceiving that it is a mere campaign trick, eminently characteristic in its palpable insincerity of the source from which it proceeds. Ii Mr. Gorman really wishes to retire from the contest the way for him to do so is to ne b= can » reure, not simply 1o prate about his wiilingness to sacri- fice his personal amb tion for the good of the parly under certain im- pussible end preposterous conaitions. It is not necessary for him to come %o tue Sun to ask permission to do so0.” i Of Interest to the Coast. WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 16.—Joseph E.

It is impossivle, however, for the mass | of the people to make the fine distinction | of the Government’s desire to show a | friendly courtesy to the United States by honoring the first Senator who has dis- | tinguished them by his presence, and the feeling that they avail themselves of this | opportunity to reward a zealous advoeate | of their intere«ts and an unflinching par- | tisan in their cause.

H | FIGHT FOR FREEDOM. ‘ Cubans Swear fm Will Never La]' Down 7heir Arms Before | the Spaniards. NEW YORK, N. Y., Oct. 16.—A special to the Sun from Havanasays: The Cu- | bans have decided to mike a desperate effort to win their independence in the campaign of next winter. Iam informed | that the plan of General Gomez, enthusi- astically approved by General Garcia, is | to attack reveral important towns in San- | tiago de Cuba and Puerto Principe before | the end of January. It has also been de- cided to make a relentiess war of retalia- tion upon the Spanish troops for every | outrage they commit. Geueral Garcia is ready to march west- ward with 6000 men and his ariillery at the first orders he receives from General Gomez. The Jucaro-Moron trocha is no obstacie for him, Garcia has declared, in spite of the 25000 Spanish soldiers who cover that military line. I have read a letter from General Garcia, in which he says: “The dynamite-gun that was so effective at Vicioria de las Tunas is enough to break down the trochas. A dozen of these guns ably handled would free Cuba in two montns,” | In a proclamation widely circulated througbout the country General Gomez | says: “The wa r will be steadily prosecuted | and those fighting will never cease tili Cuba is free.” e AFTER II1LIBUSTEKXS.

BOLD POLITIGAL JOB COLLAPSES Grand Army Men of Los Angeles Filled With Indignation. Discover a Scheme to Herd and Use Their Votes at the Next Election. Meant $10,000 for Somebody and Probably Control of the State Government. Special Dispatch to THE CALL. LOS ANGELES, , Oct. 16.—Grand Army men are aroused to a point of deep indignation and resentment over the dis- covery of a scheme to apparently profit at their expense. At the head of the enter- prise is said to be ex-Senator E. C. Sey- mour of San Bernardino. Had it been worked out as contemplated it would have reiurned somebody about $10,000, and would have placed in Ee mour’s hande the political power and in- fluence of not less than 20,000 voters in this State during the coming campaign. Operations were begun several weeks ago. Seymour is a member of the Grand Army of the Republic. It is well known ihat considerable dissatisfaction exists among a large number of Grand Army men because they have not been, accord- ing to their idea, sufficiently recognizel when the patronage in the hands of the | Governor nas been distributed. Playing upon this grievance, Seymour, it was said, proposed to first organize all tiie veterans of the late unpleasantness who vole in this county. Their voting strength, including the inmates of the Soldiers’ Home at Santa Monica, is close to s After Los Angeles was well kneaded to- gether, the remainder of the State was to be canvasscd. Success would mean the wielding of a solia phalanx ot 20,000 votes to the eandidate who might be favored by the projectors of the clever political move- ment. It is estimated that the Governor has the distribution of nearly or quite 4000 po- sitions in the State, and it was proposed to secure half of these for Grand Army men by means of their united action under one head. Each candidate was to be pledged in advance to an agreement | providing for such a result, as it was not intended to take any chances in the mat- ter. Of course, any who refused would meet the opposi.ion of this large body of men before the conventions met and also during the election campaign. Seymour was in the midsi of his pre rations for carrying out tue scieme when he was taken seriously ill. He was draft- ing resolutions, circulars, by-laws and constitutions when Lis yresent illness in- terrupted his new-found industry. It was during his illness that the matter came to the attention of some prominent Grana Army men, and steps were taken to block the scheme. Ex-Senator Seymour was seen at his home near Highlands and made the fol- lowing statement of his connection with | the movement: *'1 was put on the com- mittee to draft by-laws for an organiza- tion whose object was to be (he proiection of the Grand Army men—that is, the sur- | vivors of the late war in both the army and the navy. We desired to bring about conditions that would give us a fair share of patronage in public offices, which we think we are entitled to and which we are not receiving at the present time. *“We found that the Army and Navy Leazue was, to a certain extent, a ded letter, hav.ug only four or five branches in the State. We therefore conceived the idea of forming some kind of a new or- ganization, and to test the temper of the | members the non-partisan clause was pat into the set of by-laws reporied, but with- out intending to force it upon the mem- bers. It met with a great deal of antag- onism and the report was referred back to the committee for amendment in this particuiar. What wasdone [ don’t know as I have not been able to be present at any meeting since. ‘It is difficult to get the army and navy eople to lorm any organization that stall not be Republican in politics. Tane original idea was to start an organization for Southern California, and then, if found practicable, to extend it to the entire State. We have 25000 G. A. R. men in the State, and there appeared to be a sen- timent that our poorer members shouli be protected by such an organization. There are now many public places filied | by young men, and the duties connected with them could beequally well performed by members of the G. A. R. *‘We think we nave done our full duty o our country in the past and believe we ought to have some of the natronage at the disposal oi the Government officials. The brass button—the symuvol of tie G. A. R.—has practically disappeared from the civii service list of the State. “The 50 cents that each membar was to pay was to be for initiation and was to go into the fund of the organization. The siatement that this was to go to me was probably made by some one who thereby sought to injure me.”’ PRISONER OF ZENDA'S CREATOR ARRIVES Anthony Hope Hawkins Comes 1o This Country to Give Readings.

Thurston Among the Speakers,and Demands the Rec gnition of Cuban Belligerency. Special Dispatch to THE CALL NEW YORK, N. Y., Oct. 16.—The pop- ular reception t> Miss Ev.ngelina Cosio y Cisneros in Madison-square Garden to- day was an extraordinary demonstration. Fully 50,000 people, nearly one-thira of them well-dressed women, crowaed the upper half of Madison-tquare Park and filled Broadway and Fifih avenue, and waited patiently for the congratulatory speeches to be finished and the Cuban heroine to appear. A stand has been erected north of the Worth monument, from which the speech was delivered, and on which the Seventh Regiment Band was stationed. The crowa began to grow a little restless, and it was decided at 9 o’clock that the young lady must be brought on. J. Lincoln de Zayas was speaking when a carriage con- taining Miss Cisneros and Kar! Decker, her rescuer, appeared at the stand. For some moments the (wo stood forth while the cheering continved. Then Miss Cisneros was led back to the rear of the | platform, where she bowed and smiled to the crowd on that side of the platform. Then she ascended the steps to the car- riage, which was driven around the square ana back to Delmonico's. Previous to the appearance of Miss Cisneros on the platform there were a number of short speeches, intersper-ed with selections by the band. Murat Hal- stead was ‘chairman, and introduced the speakers. United States Senator Thurston of Nebraska was the first speaker. He was very hoarse and could be heard for only a few feet from the stand. Mr, Thurston said that it was the duty of our G vernment to grant bellizerency tothe Cubans. “If Ihad my way,” said he, *'not only would the belli erency of Cuba be recognized but 1 would send a battle-ship 1o anchor in Havana harbor in order to inspire with hope and courage thote who are strugeling or freedom.” 1t had been announced that nearly all candidates for Mayor would be present to speak, but Henry George was the only one to appear. The lavor candidate’s re- ception could not exactiy be called an ovation. Many applauded; thousands looked on calmly and Luandreds uttered cat cails. One man near the piatform yeiled out: “Where’'s Tom Johnson?" “‘Why didn’t you bring your man aiong?" Mr. George spuke briefly.

HURDERERS GET OFFICERS FOOD Regulation Prison Fare Not High Enough for Them. Condemned Men in San Quentin Live on the Fat of the Land. The Story That Durrant Is Break- ing Down Is Denled From the Penlitentiary. Special Dispatch 10 THE CALt. SAN QUENTIN PRISON, CAL., Oct. 16. Strange as may appear, it is nevertheless a fact, that the condemned murderers oc- cupying cellsin Murderers’ Row are being fed a thousand times better than the horde of striped convicts within the walls of the State’s greatest penitentiary at San Quentin. iIn other words, to commit an atrocious murder and be sentenced toSun Quentin means to receive meals served from the *‘outside” dining-room where the officers and . uards dine, while to commit an ordinary crime such as highway rob. bery, or any felony, and be incarcerated within the walls of the big penal institu- tion means to receive only the ordinary common food served in the “ins:de” din- ing-room, where the convicts eat from tin plates the coarse food that keeps body and soul together. This state of affairs is nothing more nor less than putting a_premiut upon mur- der and assassination, and has been in operation ever since Theodore Durrant, the fiendish murderer of Blanche Lamont, was received at the penitentiary. Until the aavent of Durrant the murderers were | fed as thev deserved—from the dining- room and kitchen, where the other crim- inals received their food—but with Dur- rant there came a mighty change, and the food 1hat a common prisoner was com- pelled to eat would not do for high-class criminals. Those who have taken the life of fellow creatures must have better; so the order was issued that in the future the miserable fiends in Murderers’Row should be fed irom the officers’ mess. Such is the startling condition at the San Quentin penitentiary to-day, and eight of the coldest-b'ooded murderers that have graced tbe criminal annals of the State of Calilornia are being fed in a royal manner from the kitchen which sup- plies the dainty morsels which tickle the palates of the officers. There are ten murderers under sentence of death within the penitentiary, and eight of them are confined in Murderers' Row. These are the men who eat the best the State can produce, and they are: Theodore Durrant, who murdered two girls in Ban Francisco; Benjanin Hill, who ended his wife’s lile in Oakland; Harvey All er, who foully assassinated his sweetheart and a man in San Jose; Joseph J. Ebanks, wto killed two old people for no reason whatever, and Chaves, Searcy, Fellows and Milier, four conv.cted murderers, whose cases are now on sppeal. R There are over 1360 convicts in San Quentin, and out of thisnumber the eight murderers, whose deeds have horrified the civilized world wherever justice and liberty are dear, are the ones selected 10 receive the betier food served from the officers’ dining-room. Tne prison authorities at San Quentin offer no explanation why these murder- ers are treated better than the numerous other convicts who are confined in the penitentiary. “It has only been in vogue since Dur- rant came,” is the reply to the inguiries why such a show of partiality shouid be made. When the young medical siudent came to the penitentiary the order was given to serve tha condemned men from the officers’ mess and not from the con- victs' kitchen, as was the case here ofore. Like many other things at San Quentin this also is a mystery. The report that Theodore Durrant has broken down in his cell and given up all hope, publishied in w San Francisco even- ing paper, is without the slightest truth. The prisone= has the same defiant air that he bas maintained from the first, and, while be is a little saucy at times, he is well bebaved and hopetul. He refuses to see newspaper reporters and will not talk with any one save his attorneys and par- ents in regard to his affairs, _ 3 | me that the usual hour of adjournment ! | | | LAST WORDS FOR LUETGERT Attorney Vincent Closes the Case for the Defense.

CHICAGO, IrL., Oct. 16.—The last word in defense of Adolph L. Luetgert has been spoken. Former Judge Vincent, chief counsel for the defense, closed his address to the jury this afternoon. As he bowed to the jury and took his seat an outburst of applause shook the courtroom. The | jurymen stood up and the court bailiffs shouted in vain for order. Several | hysterical ladies were escorted from the | room. Judge Tuthill ordered the jury to | its room and delivered himself very forcibly on what he called a disgraceful scene. | Vincent again, after reading the evi- | dence of the bone experts and severely arraigning the witnesses for the State, some of whom he styled **mechanics,” re- ferred in a touching maner to the asso- ciations formed during the trial. “‘And now, gentlemen of the jury,”” he said in conclusion, ‘the ever-moving hands upon the dial of yonder clock warn has arrived. 1 must cease pieading and leave the case in your hands I bave fought the fight and kept the fzith to the hest of my avility.
