Tin? Torry's Victory Centennial Com
mlspion of Pennsylvania was organized
by concttrrent state legislative resolu
tion, May 13, 1!I0!1, to disburse appro
ririatloiiB of ? ir0,000 towards the con
struct ion of a national Perry munio
rlal at the Krone of the Battle of Lake
Krle, and 875,000 for the reconstruc
tion of the flagship "Niagara," raised
from Krle harbor, and for a perma

c
FJIHGUS BATTLESHIP REBUILT AFTER SLEEP OF A
wsmmm
Commodore Perry's Second Flagship "Niagara" as It Will Appear Fully Rigged In the Harbor at Erie In
Right Hand Corner, Secretary of Navy Josephut Daniels.
Secretary of the Navy Josephus
Daniels will be the ofllcial sponsor for
the famous flagship "Niagara," on
which Commodore Oliver II. Perry
won the decisive victory of the "llat
tle of I-oke Krie," Sept. 10, 1813. The
rebuilding of the "Niagara" will goon
be completed and the ship will be
first shown on exhibition at Kilo, Pa.,
during the Perry centennial, July C
to 12. On Thursday, July 10, Secre
tary Daniels aud prominent naval olli
cers will make their visit.
Every spar and rope on the "Nia
gara" is being restored in its orig
inal shape. Moro than $75,()i0 has
been expended. Original equipment,
held almost priceless in value by the
owners, descendants of the gallant
men who fought with Perry, litis been
loaned for the centennial. After a
trip of the cities holding celebrations,

of a triumphal arch overlooking the
bountiful l'resuue Isle bay, where the
battleships were launched.
Senator A. K. Sisson became presi
dent of the state board, the governor
being ex-ofilcio. Representative T. C.
Jones was made secretary. In meet
ing with the interstate commission,
Gen. Sisson (later auditor general)
was chosen treasurer of the national
organization and Congressman M. V.
tho "Niagara" will be brought back to
Erie. ' ,
The history of tho "Niagara" . Is
finite commonly known. The good
ship "Lawrence," that was raised from
tho waters of Erie bay In 1776 and
exhibited in the centennial at Phila
delphia, was the first flagship of the
battle. When shattered almost to the
point of sinking, Perry took his battle-flag
and made the perilous, now
famous in history, trip in a small boat
to the "Niagara" and won the con
flict. Itoth vessels were brought back
to Erie and sunk In the waters of
the harbor to keep them from being
broken up or sold for merchandising.
Manned with oldtiino "tars" who
know every rope and canvas, the
"Niagara" will sail like a phantom
from a by-gone century. Thousands
will tread the historic decks. An in
vitation is extended by the Pennsyl
vania Feiry CelebiaUou Commission
Shreve (elected to congress, 1912) be
came chairman of celebrations. Othei
members were placed on important
committees. Through their efforts
and the activity of Mayor William J.
Stem of Krie, chairman of the inter
city board, working In harmony with
the interstate board, the city of Erie
was recognized as the place where the
celebration should begin and the week
of July 6 to 12 given for the Pennsyl
vania festivities.

Swap Stories of the Day of '63.
25,000 Veterans Are on the Scene.
Two deaths In the camp marred the
opening ceremonies of the great re
union at Gettysburg, Pa.
John II. Erynolds, sixty-nine yeari
old, ol Port Chester, N. V., died ol
heart disease ill the camp hospital
overcome by the heat.
Augustus D. ISrown of Llvermoic
Falls, .Me., was the other veteran to
die on the battlelield. He was taken
.suddenly ill ami died just as an army
surgeon reached his side.
Scores of the old veterans dropped
everywhere from sheer exhaustion and
the ambulances were kept busy hurry
ing them to the field hospitals. .Most
of the exhausted veterans are on the
road to recovery.
The medical authorities refuso to
give out the list of veterans overcome.
Colonel iBradley, surgeon In chief, and
the officers commanding the field hos
pitals, all declare that the patients
handled by them were all sufferiug
with minor aliments.
All attendance records were broken
when 25,000 old soldiers entered
Gettysburg. Thirty-live governors will
be on the ground during the week.
Among the notable arrivals in camp
Is General Daniel Sickles, who de
clined hotel quarters In favor of a tent
at the pla:-3 where he lost his leg.
General Sicnles was escorted to his
camp tent by a cavalry detail and was
cheered lustily by both blue and gray
as he proceeded through the center
of the camp to his quarters In the ex
treme southern camp limits.
General Sickles' decision to share
camp life has been followed by other
of the olllcers. General Kelix Robert
son of Dallas, Tex., and General A. J.
West of Atlanta, for whom the Penn
sylvania state commission had re
served quarters at the seminary, flat
ly refused the offer and insisted on
being shown to the regular camp sec
tion of tihe Confederate veterans.
Perhaps the most striking illustra
tion of the genuinely fraternal spirit
between old veterans is the fact that
tho I'nion veterans on arrival
searched eagerly for a display of "The
Stars and liars" and the Confederate
veterans were Just as reluctant about
displaying it as the I'nion men were
to see It.
"This thing isn't right until the hoys
In gray have their Hag on Seminary
ridge; it ought to be there," insisted
several Pennsylvaninns and New York
ers. "They ought to have It, let us get
one up," declared Luclen W. Lyman
of the Eighty-third Pennsylvania and
all other I'nion visitors to the Con
federate section voiced the same
opinion. Hut the sentiment which pre
vailed was:
"No, the war is over, it's one coun
try now, one flag; we fought for what
we thought was right, but let's all for
get It now."
Men in blue and men In gray walk
around the battlelield; together they
visited the cemetery and the park, to
gether they find a thousand tilings of
common memory. Ann in arm they
stand 'before the monuments erected
In commemoration of deeds and rev
erently discuss the causes that led
to the mighty conflict.
One of the most teresting and con
spicuous figures in Gettysburg is Sam

police of Slevensville, Mont., In tho
Hitter Root valley, as he carefully ex
plains It, for the past live years. Chief

Congressman Bitter Because ot
California Affair
Representative James C. Mann ol
Illinois, Republican leader and author
of the white slave law, made a bittet
attack upon President Wilson and At
torney General Mcltcynolds on the
floor of the house because of the de
velopments in the Caminettl-Diggs
case.
The Republicans intend to push
their demand for the production of all
the documents relating to it and possi
bly for a congressional Investigation.
They intend to compare the facta on
record with the McReynolds' state
ment and Mr. Mann's speech was
aimed at the vulnerable points in Mc
Reynolds' explanation.
Mr. Mann accused the attorney gen
eral of hypocrisy and attacked the
president lor upholding Ills hands. He
declared Diggs and Caminetti were
(barged with the violation of the
white slave act under circumstances
aud conditions which if true would
make men blush.
"Catnlnetti's father," he continued,
"had been appointed commissioner
general of immigration, one of the
duties of which ollice Is to enforce
both the Maun and llennett white
slave laws In reference to the deport
ation of aliens brought here for the
purpose of prostitution. A line man
to put in that position, whose princi
pal object is to leave his ollice In or
der to go to the side of his twenty-seven-year-old
sou under trial for a
white slave offense.
"What reason was given by .McReyn
olds or anyone else Tor the postpone
ment or the ca.-e? Why should the
Diggs case also have been postponed?
They were two separate cases."
Representative Maun wanted to
know what District Attorney McNah
had done that merited censure? He
had merely called the president's at
tention to the fact that the attorney
general's ollice had been Imposed
upon. Mr. Mann then went on to
ridicule the attorney general's ex
planation for postponing the case and
asked:
"What kind of an attorney general
Is he who having on Hie from the dis
trict attorney statements to the effect
that people are endeavoring to thwart
the administration of Justice and to
bribe or bii..- witnesses of the govern
ment would postpone the case on the
receipt of a telephone message from
a cabinet officer?
Thomas J. llayden and Mat 1. Sulli
van were chosen by Attorney General
.McReynolds to prosecute the ('ami
nettl Diggs and Western Fuel company
cases. Francis J. Ileney, whose namf
has been mentioned 111 tills connection,
was not selected as a prosecutor.
