PREFACE. 



Much history of importance was made in 1905. On the very 
first day of the year Port Arthur fell after one of the most sangui- 
nary sieges on record. Then followed the battle of Mukden, un- 
paralleled for time consumed, length of lines, number of men 
engaged and casualties. To cap the climax the navy, and with 
it the sea power, of Russia was almost annihilated by Admiral 
Togo in the battle of the Sea of Japan. This virtually put an 
end to a war remarkable alike for the gigantic scale on which it 
was conducted and for the results achieved. The place of Russia 
as the predominating power in a large part of the far east was taken 
by Japan and new lines had to be drawn by the map-makers of 
the world. The fact that the president of the United States was 
instrumental in bringing about peace was also of great historical 
significance. 

Another development of far-reaching importance was the prog- 
ress made toward the substitution of a constitutional for an auto- 
cratic form of government in Russia. The struggle for liberty was 
continued throughout the whole year and was attended by scenes 
of bloodshed and destruction that shocked the civilized world. 

Still another event of international importance was the dissolu 
tion of the union under one king of Norway and Sweden. Each 
nation is now independent of the other, having its own king, cabi- 
net and representatives in foreign countries. 

Concerning these and many other happenings of 1905 the facts 
will be found briefly recorded in the following pages. An effort 
has been made to confine the narrative to such data as may be most 
frequently needed for reference and it is with that end in view that 
the chronology has been made as complete and accurate as pos- 
sible under the circumstances. 

While foreign affairs have necessarily received much attention, 
those of the United States have not been neglected. Even more 
than the usual amount of space has been given to the statistical, 
political, educational and other affairs of the nation. The same 
may be said of matters more directly concerning the state of Illinois 
and the city of Chicago. The Chicago Daily News Almanac 
and Year-Book for 1906 is therefore offered with the hope that it 
will be found a useful and reliable book of reference for men and 
women in all parts of the country.

WEDDING ANNIVERSARIES. 



WEATHER FORECASTS AND SIGNALS. 



The weather bureau of the United States 
department of agriculture publishes daily 
more than 100,000 weather bulletins, not 
counting the forecasts in the newspapers. 
Most of these bulletins are in the form 
of postal cards printed by postmasters 
from telegraphic reports and sent by them 
to outlying towns for display at suitable 
points. There is also an elaborate system of 



No 1. 
White flag. 



redistribution by means of telephones and 
railroads from established centers, so that 
there are comparatively few accessible 
places which do not now receive daily 
weather forecasts within a very short time 
after the observers have completed their 
work. The old system of conveying informa- 
tion about the weather by means of flag 
displays is also in general use. 

EXPLANATION OF WEATHER FLAGS. 
No. 2. No. 3. No. 4. No. 5. 

Blue flag. White and blue Black triangu- White flag with black 

flag. lar flag. square in center. 



Clear or 
fair weather. 



BLUE 



I 

Rain or snow. 





Local rain or 
snow. 



Temperature. 



Cold wave. 



When No. 4 is placed above No. 1, 2 or 3 it indicates warmer; when below, colder; 
when not displayed, the temperature is expected to remain about stationary. During the late 
spring and early fall the cold-wave flag is also used to indicate anticipated frosts. 

EXPLANATION OF STORM-WARNING FLAGS. 






Northwest winds. Southwest winds. Northeast winds. Southeast winds. "Hurricane 7 ' signal. 

A red flag with a black center indicates that a storm of marked violence is expected. The 
pennants displayed with the flags indicate the direction of the wind: Red, easterly (from 
northeast to south); white, westerly (from southwest to north). The pennant above the flag 
indicate? that the wind is expected to blow from the northerly quadrants; below, from south- 
erly quaurants. 

By night a red light indicates easterly winds and a white light above a red light westerly 

ids. 

Two red flags, with black centers, displayed one above the other indicate the expected 
approach of tropical hurricanes, and also of those extremely severe 'and dangerous storms 
which occasionally move across the lakes and northern Atlantic coast. Hurricane warnings 
are not displayed at night. 

THERMOMETERS COMPARED. 

Fahrenheit to Reaumur Subtract 32, mul- 
tiply by four-ninths. 

Fahrenheit to Centigrade Subtract 32. 
multiply by five-ninths. 

Reaumur to Fahrenheit Multiply by nine- 
fourths, add 32. 

Reaumur to Centigrade Multiply by five- 
fourths. 

Centigrade to Fahrenheit Multiply by 
nine-fifths, add 32. 

Centigrade to Reaumur Multiply by .four- 
fifths. 



There are three kinds of thermometers, 
with varying scales, in general use through- 
out the world the Fahrenheit, Reaumur and 
Centigrade. The freezing and boiling points 
on their scales compare as follows: 

Thermometer. Freezing pt. Boiling pt. 

Fahrenheit 32 degrees 212 degrees 

Reaumur zero 80 degrees 

Centigrade zero 100 degrees 

The degrees on one scale are reduced to 
their equivalents on another by these formu- 
las: 



First Cotton. 
Second Paper. 
Third Leather. 
Fifth Wooden. 
Seventh Woolen.

CHICAGO DAILY NEWS ALMANAC AND YEAR-BOOK FOR 1906. 



APPLICATIONS FOE PATENTS. 



[Condensed from Rules of Practice in the United States patent office.] 



A patent may be obtained by any person 
who has invented or discovered any new 
and useful art, machine, manufacture or 
composition of matter, or any new and use- 
ful improvement thereof not previously 
patented or described in this or any other 
country, or more than two years prior to 
liis application, unless the same is proved 
to have been abandoned. A patent may 
also be obtained for any new design for a 
manufacture, bust, statue, alto-relievo or 
t>as-relief; for the printing of woolen, silk 
or other fabrics: for any new impression, 
ornament, pattern, print or picture to be 
placed on or woven into any article of 
manufacture; and for any new, useful and 
original shape or configuration of any 
article of manufacture, upon payment of 
fees and taking the other necessary steps. 

Applications for patents must be in writ- 
ing, in the English language and signed by 
the inventor if alive. The application must 
nclude the first fee of $15, a petition, speci- 
fication and oath, and drawings, model or 
specimen when required. The petition must 
be addressed to the commissioner of patents 
and must give the name and full address 
of the applicant, must designate by title 
the invention sought to be patented, must 
contain a reference to the specification for 
a full disclosure of such invention and must 
be signed by the applicant. 

The specification must contain the follow- 
ng in the order named: Name and resi- 
dence of the applicant with title of inven- 
tion: a general statement of the oblect and 
nature of the invention; a brief description 
of the several views of the drawings (if the 
invention admits of such illustration); a 
detailed description; claim or claims; sig- 
nature of inventor and signatures of two 
witnesses. Claims for a machine and its 
product and claims for a machine and the 
process in the performance of which the 
machine is used must be presented in 
separate applications, but claims for a proc- 
ess and its product may be presented in 
the same application. 

The applicant, if the Inventor, must make 
oath or affirmation that he believes himself 
to be the first inventor or discoverer of 
that which he seeks to have patented. The 
oath or affirmation must also state of what 
country he is a citizen and where he re- 
sides. In every original application the ap- 
plicant must swear or affirm that the In- 
vention has not been patented to himself 
or to others with his knowledge or con- 
sent in this or any foreign country lor more 
than two years prior to his application, or 
on an application for a patent filed in any 



foreign country by himself or his legal rep- 
resentatives or assigns more than seven 
months prior to his application. If appli- 
cation has been made in any foreign coun- 
try full and explicit details must be given. 
The oath or affirmation may be made be- 
fore any one who is authorized by the laws 
of his country to administer oaths. 

Drawings must be on white paper with 
India mk and the sheets must be exactly 
10x15 inches in size with a margin of one 
inch. They must show all details clearly 
and without the use of superfluous lines. 

Applications for reissues must state why 
the original patent Is believed to be de- 
fective and tell precisely how the errors 
were made. These applications must be ac- 
companied by the original patent and an 
offer to surrender the same; or, if the 
original be lost, by an affidavit to that ef- 
fect and certified copy of the patent. Ev- 
ery applicant whose claims have been twice 
rejected for the same reasons may appeal 
from the primary examiners to the exam- 
iners in chief upon the payment of a fee 
of $10. 

The duration of patents Is for seventeen 
years except in the case of design patents, 
which may be for three 'and a half, seven 
or fourteen years as the inventor may elect. 

Caveats or notices given to the patent 
office of claims to inventions to prevent the 
issue of patents to other persons upon the 
same invention, without notice to the 
caveators, may be filed upon the payment 
of a fee of $10. Caveats must contain the 
same information as applications for pat- 
ents.

UNITED STATES CIVIL SERVICE.

TTNITED STATES CIVIL SERVICE. 



Officers Three commissioners are appointed 
by the president to assist him in classify- 
ing the government offices and positions, 
formulating rules and enforcing the law. 
Their office is in Washington, D. C. The 
chief examiner is appointed by the commis- 
sioners to secure accuracy, uniformity and 
justice in the proceedings of the examining 



boards. The secretary to the commission 
is appointed by the president. 

General Rules The fundamental rules gov 
erning appointments to government posi 
tions are found in the civil-service act it 
self. Based upon these are many other 
regulations formulated by the commission 
and promulgated by the president from 
time to time as new contingencies arise. 
The present rules were approved March 
20, 1903, and went into effect April 15, 1903. 
In a general way they require that there 
must be free, open examinations of appli- 
cants for positions in the public service; 
that appointments shall be made from 
those graded highest in the examinations; 
that appointments to the service in Wash- 
ington shall be apportioned among the 
states and territories according to popula- 
tion; that there shall be a period (six 
months) of probation before any absolute 
appointment is made; that no person in 
the public service is for that reason obliged 
to contribute to any political fund or is 
subject to dismissal for refusing to so con- 
tribute; that no person in the public serv- 
ice has any right to use his official author- 
ity or influence to coerce the political ac- 
tion of any person. Applicants for positions 
shall not be questioned as to their polit- 
ical or religious beliefs and no discrimina- 
tion shall be exercised against or in favor 
of any applicant or employe on account of 
his religion or politics. The classified civil 
service shall include all officers and em- 
ployes in the executive civil service of the 
United States except laborers and persons 
whose appointments are subject to con- 
firmation by the senate. 

E>amina tions These are conducted by 
boards of examiners chosen from among 
persons in government employ and are held 
twice a year in all the states and terri- 
tories at convenient places. In Illinois, 
for example, they are usually held at 
Cairo, Chicago and Peoria. The dates are 
announced through the newspapers or by 
other means. They can always be learned 
by applying to the commission or to the 
nearest postoffiee or custom house. Those 
who desire to take examination are ad- 
vised to write to the commission in Wash- 
ington for the "Manual of Examinations," 
which is sent free to all applicants. It is 
revised semiannually to Jan. 1 and July 1. 
The January edition contains a schedule 
of the spring examinations and the July 
edition contains a schedule of the fall ex- 
aminations. Full information is given as 
to the methods and rules governing exam- 
inations, manner of making application, 
qualifications required, regulations for rat- 
ing examination papers, certification for 
and chances of appointment, and as far as 
possible it outlines the scope of the differ- 
ent subjects of general and technical ex- 
aminations. These are practical in char- 
acter and are designed to test the relative 
capacity and fitness to discharge the duties 
to be performed. It is necessary to obtain 



Civil-service r.ct approved Jan. 16, 1883. 

an average percentage of 70 to be eligibl 
for appointment, except that applicants 
entitled to preference because of honorable 
discharge from the military or naval serv 
ice for disability resulting from wounds o 
sickness incurred in the line of duty neet 
obtain but 65 per cent. The period of eligi 
bility is one year. 



Qualifications of Applicants No person wil 
be examined who is not a citizen of th< 

' United States; who is not within the ag< 
limitations prescribed; who is physicallj 
disqualified for the service which he seeks 
who has been guilty of criminal, infamous 
dishonest or disgraceful conduct; wh< 
has been dismissed from the public serv 
ice for delinquency and misconduct or ha: 
failed to receive absolute appointmen 
after probation; who is addicted to th< 
habitual use of intoxicating liquors to ex 
cess, or who has made a false statement 
in his application. The age limitations li 
the more important branches of the public 
service are: Postoffiee, 18 to 45 years 
rural letter carriers, 17 to 55: internal rev 
enue, 21 years and over; railway mail, 11 
to 35; lighthouse, 18 to 50; life saving, l! 
to 45; general departmental, 20 and OTer 
These age limitations are subject to change 
by the commission. They do not applj 
to applicants of the preferred class. Ap 
plicants for the position of railway mai 
clerk must be at least 5 feet 6 inches IE 
height, exclusive of boots or shoes, and 
weigh not less than 135 pounds in ordinary 
clothing and have no physical defects. Ap 
plicants for certain other positions have t< 
come up to similar physical requirements 

Method of Appointment Whenever a va- 
cancy exists the appointing officer makes 
requisition upon the civil-service commis- 
sion for a certification of names to fill the 
vacancy, specifying the kind of position 
vacant, the sex desired and the salary. 
The commission thereupon takes from the 
proper register of eligibles the names of 
the three persons standing highest of the 
sex called for and certifies them to the ap 
pointing officer, who is required to make the 
selection. He may choose any one of the 
three names, returning the other two 'to 
the register to await further certification. 
The time of examination is not considered, 
as the highest in average percentage on the 
register must be certified first. If after a 
probationary period of six months the 
name of the appointee is continued on the 
roll of the department in which he serves 
the appointment is considered absolute. 

Removals No person can be removed from 
a competitive position except for such 
cause as will promote the efficiency of the 
public service and for reasons given in 
writing. No examination of witnesses nor 
any trial shall be required except in the 
discretion of the officer making the re- 
moval. 

Salaries Entrance to the departmental serv- 
ice is usually in the lowest grades, the 
higher grades being generally filled by pro- 
motion. The usual entrance grade is about 
$900. but the applicant may be appointed 
at $840, $760 or even $600.

DEATH OF SECRETARY JOHN HAY, 



John Hay, secretary of state, died sud- 
denly early Saturday morning, July 1, 1905, 
at his summer residence at Newbury, N. 
H. He had been ill for several months 
and had recently returned from a trip to 
Europe with bis health apparently restored. 
His breakdown was caused by overwork in 
tbe state department, especially in connec- 
tion with developments growing out of the 
Russo-Japanese war and the Venezuelan 



trouble. At Bad Neuheim in Germany he 
was treated by Prof. Groedel, an eminent 
specialist, and when he left there he was 
hopeful of complete recovery, even up to 
the day before he died. He was buried in 
Lakeview cemetery, Cleveland, O., July 5. 
Only his family, President Roosevelt and 
members of the McKinley cabinet were 
present.

CENTER OF POPULATION AND ITS MEDIAN POINT. 

The center of population is the center of gravity of the population of the country, each 
individual being assumed to have the same weight. What is known as the median point is the 
point of intersection of the line dividing the population equally north and south with the line 
dividing it equally east and west. The center of population in 1900 was at a point six miles 
southeast of Columbus, Ind., or north latitude 39 degrees and 9.5 minutes and west longitude 
85 degrees 48.9 minutes. The median point in 1900 was at Spartanburg, Ind., or latitude 40 de- 
grees 4 minutes and 22 seconds and longitude 84 degrees 51 minutes and 29 seconds. 

The center of area of the United States, excluding Alaska and Hawaii and other recent 
accessions, is in northern Kansas, in approximate latitude 39 degrees 55 minutes and ap- 
proximate longitude 98 degrees 50 minutes. The center of population is therefore about three- 
fourths of a degree south and more than thirteen degrees east of the center of area.

*Exclusive of Alaska and Hawaii. 



Area of Porto Rico is approximately 3,600 and of the Philippine islands 114.000 square miles 
(land and water, 832,968). 

NOTE The areas as given above were computed under the direction of Henry Gannett, 
geographer of the United States geological survey, for the census office. In some cases the 
tlgures vary from those given by the general land office, but they are believed to be as nearly 
correct as possible. In the case of states bordering on the great lakes the water surface of 
the latter has been included in the computation of areas by the land office and excluded by 
Mr. Gannett. This will account in large measure for the apparent discrepancies.

In five states in 185O the electoral vote was divided: California gave 8 electoral votes for 
Cleveland and 1 for Harrison and Ohio gave 1 for Cleveland and 22 for Harrison: in Michigan, 
by act of the legislature, each congressional district voted separately for an elector; in Oregon 
1 of the 4 candidates for electors on the people's party ticket was also on the democratic ticket;

PRESBYTERIAN GENERAL ASSEMBLY. 

xne general assembly of the presbyterlan 
church was held at Winona Lake, Ind.. 
May 19-27, 1905. The Kev. James U. Mof- 
lat was chosen moderator. On May 22 
tne assembly, without a dissenting vote, 
declared for union with tne Cumberland 
Presbyterian church on the doctrinal basis 
of confession of faith of the presbyterian 
church in the United States of America, as 
revised in 1903, and of its other doctrines 
and ecclesiastical standards, the scriptures 
of the old and new testament* to lie ac- 
knowledged as the inspired word of God 
and the only infallible rule of practice. The 
Cumberland church took similar action at 
its general assembly. At the meeting of the 
southern presbyterian church in May the 
committee on federation with other branches 
of the church was continued for another 
year, but the general sentiment seemed to 
be against union.

THE MONROE DOCTRINE. 



The famous "Monroe doctrine" was enun- 
ciated by President Monroe in his message 
to congress Dec. 2, 1823. Referring to steps 
taken to arrange the respective rights of 
Russia, Great Britain and the United 
States on the northwest coast of this conti- 
nent, the president w r ent on to say: 

"In the discussions to which this interest 
has given rise, and in the arrangements by 
which they may terminate, the occasion has 
been deemed proper for asserting, as a 
principle in which the rights and interests 
of the United States are involved, that the 
American continents, by the free and in- 
dependent condition which they have as- 
sumed and maintain, are henceforth not to 
be considered as subjects for future colo- 
nization by any European power. * * 
We owe it. therefore, to candor and to the 



amicable relations existing between the 
United States and those powers to declare 
that we should consider any attempt on 
their part to extend their system to any 
portion of this hemisphere as dangerous to 
our peace and safety. With the existing 
colonies or dependencies of any European 
power we have not interfered and shall not 
interfere. But with the governments who 
have declared their independence and main- 
tain it, and whose independence we have, 
on great consideration and on just princi- 
ples, acknowledged, we could not view any 
interposition for the purpose of oppressing 
them or controlling in any other manner 
their destiny by any European power in any 
other light than as the manifestation of an 
unfriendly disposition toward the United 
States."

ADMIRAL JOHN PATJL JONES BURIED IN AMERICA. 



Chiefly through the efforts of Gen. Hor- 
ace Porter, united states ambassador to 
France, the remains of Admiral John Paul 
J cries were found and identified in the old | 
St. Louis cemetery in Paris, France, April 
14, 19U5. freparitions were at once made 
to remove the body to the United States 
and a naval convoy consisting of tlie Brooii- 
lyn, Chattanooga, Galveston and Tacomsi, 
commanded by Admiral Sigsbee, was sent 
to France. The transfer was made in 
Paris July 6 with simple ceremonies. As- 
sistant Secretary of State Francis B. ' 
Locmis on behalf of the United States re- 
ceived the body, which, escorted by bOO 1 
American sailors and a number of Freuch 1 



tic ops, was conveyed to the railroad sta- 
tion and thence to Cherbourg, where it 
wa& placed on board tne Brooklyn. On 
its arrival in America July 24 it was placed 
in a vault on the grounds of the naval 
academy at Annapolis, Md. 

Admiral Jonos died in Paris July 18, 
r.92. His body was embalmed, placed in 
a leaden coffin and buried in the St. Louis 
cemetery. Tlie growth of the city caused 
this to fall into disuse and in course or 
time buildings were erected upon the 
giaves. The records were lost and the 
exact location of the lest resting place of 
Tne American naval neio became a matter 
ot dispute.

This independent military organization of 
the state of New York was organized under 
the militia law of congress. It also consti- 
tutes the Military Society of the War of 
1812. 

It was originally organized by officers and 
soldiers of the war of the revolution, prin- 
cipally from the continental corps of artil- 
lery, and served in the war of 1812 in June 
and July, 1812, and then for six months in 
United States service from 'Sept. 2, 1814. 
Afterward it was recruited from officers 
and soldiers of the war of 1812 of honor- 
able records. The present membership is 
135.

Commanderies have been established in 
twenty-two states and territories. Total 
membership about 1,700. 

The order is a military organization with 
patriotic objects, having for its scope the 
period of American history since national 
independence. It stands for the needed and 
honorable principle of national defense 
against foreign aggression. The principal 
feature of the order is the perpetuating of 
the names, as well as the services, of com- 
missioned officers who served in either the 
war of the revolution, the war with Tripoli, 
the war of 1812, the Mexican war or the war 
with Spain and all future campaigns rec- 
ognized by the United States government 
as war with foreign powers. Veteran com- 
panionship is conferred upon such officers 
and hereditary companionship upon their 
direct lineal descendants in the male line.

ARCTIC AND ANTARCTIC EXPLORATION. 



Two events of interest in the history of 
r-olar exploration occurred in 1905. One was 
the departure of Commander Robert E. 
Peary on another expedition to the arctic 
ifgions an/1 the other was the rescue of 
the members of the Ziegler-Fiala expedi- 
tion, from which nothing had been heard 
since July, 1903. Peary, who sailed from 
New York July 16, had under his command 
a new steamer, the Roosevelt, especially 
constructed for work in ice-incumbered 
ser.s. Though he got a later start than he 
had planned, he hoped to get as far north 
as latitude 83, off the most northerly point 
of Grant Laud, before he was frozen in. 
Li February, 1906, if the conditions are fa- 
vorable, he will start on a sledge journey 
toward the pole. Those who accompanied 
him included among others Dr. Louis 
James Wolf, surgeon: Ross E. Martin, sur- 
veyor; George Wardell, chief engineer; 
Gectge Percy, steward, and his negro serv- 
ant. Matt Henzer. 

The steamer America, which conveyed 
the Ziegler-Fiala expedition to the vicinity 
of Franz Josef Land in 1903, was wrecked 
in Neplitz bay the following winter, but no 
lives were lost. All of the members of the 
purty except one. who died a natural death, 
were rescued by the steamer Terra Nova, 
sent out by William Ziegler in the spring 



of 1905. They reached Honningsvaag, Nor- 

" g. 10. " 
was 82 degrees 13 minutes. Mr. Zieeler 



way, Auj 



The highest point reached 



died May 24, 1905, but it is expected that 
bis adopted son and heir will carry out his 
exploration plans. 



The duke of Orleans entered the list of 
arctic explorers in 1905. He sailed in the 
Belgica, commanded by Lieut, de Gerlache, 
May fi from Christiania, Norway. The pur- 
pose of the expedition is said to be mainly 
scientific. It is expected that Jan Meyen, 
East Greenland and Franz Josef Land will 
be visited. 

The record of the principal polar expedi- 
tions since 1871 stands:

THE SIMPLON TUNNEL COMPLETED, 



The boring of the Simplon tunnel, the 
fourth of tne great Alpine tunnels and the 
second between Switzerland and Italy, was 
completed Friday, Feb. 24, 1905. It was begun 
in August, 1898. and was built by the two 
governments named. The total cost was 
about $13,500,000. The total length of this 
great tunnel from the point where it enters 
tne solid rock on the one side to the point 
of issue on the other is exactly 12 miles 
and 458 yards, of which a little over 7 miles 
is in Italian territory. The St. Gothard 
tunnel is 9 miles and 564 yards long, the 
Mont (Jenis a few yards short of 8 miles, 



and the Arlberg tunnel 6 miles and 404 
yards. All these tunnels have double rail- 
way tracks and their measurements are: 
Height, 7 yards; width, 9 yards. Although 
the Simplon tunnel is so much longer tnaii 
eitner the St. Gothard or the Mont Cenis, 
it was completed in six and a half years, 
while it took eight years to construct the 
St. Gothard and twelve years for the Mont 
Cenis. The difference in favor of the Sirn- 
plon was due almost entirely to the im- 
proved rotating drills now used in tunnel 
construction.

NORWEGIAN-SWEDISH UNION DISSOLVED. 



131 



NORWEGIAN-SWEDISH UNION DISSOLVED. 



The union existing between Norway ana 
Sweden sinoe 1814 was formally disrolved 
by action of the storthing or parliament ot 
.Norway June 7, 1905. For many years the 
relations of the two nations had been 
strained to a greater or less degree t>y 
differences ->f opinion as to their relative 
powers under the convention of Aug. 14. 
1814, and the rigsakt of Aug. 6, 1815. Many 
Swedes asserted that Norway was ceded by 
Denmark to Sweden by the treaty of Kiel, 
Jan. 14, 1814, and tbat constitutionally Nor- 
way belonged to Sweden. On the other 
narid, the ivorwegians held that there was 
nothing in the fundamental law of either 
nation in the rature of a treaty or union 
End that each was an independent country 
except that both bad the same king and 
that certain pcwt-rs were exercised jointly 
in accordance with the stipulations of the 
rigsakt of 1815. Norway, they said, did 
not enter the union as a conquered people, 
but by the consent of duly elected repre- 
sentatives of a free people, this being made 
clear by the paragraphs of the constitu- 
tion, as amended by the act of union, 
which decUro: "The kingdom of Norway 
shall be a free, independent, indivisible 
and Inalienable kingdom, united with Swe- 
den under one king, its form of govem- 
men^ shall l>e a limited and hereditary 
monarchy." 

The appointment and control of consuls 
to foreign countries became a source of 
trouble as long ago as 1834 and, while differ- 
ences of opinion arose as to a number of 
other matters, it remained to the last the 
chief subject of dispute. It was accentu- 
ated in 1385 when the Swedish prime min- 
ister obtained control of the foreign affairs 
of both nations in spite of the contention 
of the Norwegians that the king alone had 
a right to act in such matters. From time 
to time efforts were made to arrive at an 
agreement and joint committees were ap- 
pointed to consider the question of Nor- 
way's demand for a separate consular sys- 
tem. One of these committees in July, 
1902, recommended that there should be sep- 
arate consular services for both countries 
and that the relations of the consuls to the 
foreign minister should be arranged by laws 
not to be repealed without the consent of 
*iie Norwegian and Swedish executives. This 
recommendation met with favor, but in 1904 
the Swedish premier raised a number of 
points which the Norwegians could not ac- 
cept. He insisted that the foreign minister 
should hava a veto on the appointment of 
consuls and that his authority over them 
should be supreme. Negotiations were brok- 
en off and all parties in Norway united in 
the formation of a ministry, at the head 
of which was Christian Michelsen, pledged 
to carry into effect the demand for a new 
consular law. 

In May, 1905, a committee appointed for 
that purpose laid before the Norwegian 
storthing a biP. for a separate consular sys- 
tem. It was passed almost unanimously 
and was submitted to King Oscar for his 
approval or rejection. May 28 he returned 
the bill with his veto. In this he held that 
the contemplated action must receive the 
sanction of the mixed council of represent- 
atives of both countries. The Norwegian 
council of state at once resigned, but the 
king refused to accept the resignations on 
the ground that it was impossible in view 



of the state of public opinion in Norway 
to form a new government. On June 7 the 
storthing of Norway met in Christiania and 
passed the following resolution: 

"Whereas, all the members of the coun- 
cil of state have laid down their offices, and 

"Whereas, his majesty the king las 
declared himself unable to establish a new 
government for the country, and 

"Whereas, the constitutional regal power 
thus becomes inoperative, the storthing 
authorizes the members of the council of 
state who retired to-day to exercise until 
further notice as the Norwegian govern- 
ment the power appertaining to the king, 
in accordance with Norway's constitution 
and existing laws, with those changes 
which are necessitated by the fact that the 
union wita Sweden under one king is dis- 
solved, in consequence of the king having 
ceas?d to act as a Norwegian king." 

The members of the council of state re- 
fer red to in the resolution were Peter C. 
H. K. Michelseu, J. G. Lovland, S. A. B. 
Arctander, E. H. Bull, H. Bothner, C. 
Knudsen, A. G. Knudsen, K. Lehmkuhl, 
C. W. E. B. Olsson and A. H. Vinje. 

Simultaneously with the act of dissolu- 
tion an address was adopted which it was 
proposed to present to the king. In this 
was recited the history of the unsatisfac- 
tory relations existing between the two na- 
tions. It declared that the union entered 
upon in 1814 had from the first hour been 
differently interpreted both with regard 
to its spirit and its letter, and that while 
the Swedes had made efforts to extend the 
union, the Norwegians had tried to confine 
it to the limit laid down by the act of 
union. It continued: "The union was justi- 
fied so lon^ as it could contribute to the 
welfare and happiness of both peoples while 
maintaining their independence as a sover- 
eign state. But above the union there 
stand for us Norwegians our Norwegian 
fatherland, and for the Swedes their Swed- 
ish fatherland, while more valuable than 
the political union are the feelings of sol- 
idarity and voluntary cohesion of both peo- 
ples. The union has become a danger to 
this feeling of solidarity of the Norwegian 
and Swedish peoples which should secure 
the happiness of both nations and consti- 
tute their strength abroad. 

"If the union is now severed the Nor- 
wegian people have no loftier wish than to 
live in good harmony with all and not least 
with the people of Sweden and the dynasty 
under the direction of which our country, 
despite many and bitter disputes affecting 
the union, has attained such important in- 
tellectual and material development. 

"As evidence of the fact that the work 
and struggle of the Norwegian people for 
the full independence of the fatherland has 
not been founded on any ill-feeling toward 
the loyal house or the Swedish people and 
has net left behind any bitterness toward 
either of these, the storthing respectfully 
solicits your majesty'r, co-operation to the 
end that a prince of your majesty's house 
may be permitted, while relinquishing his 
right of succession to the throne of Sweden, 
to accept election as king of Norway.'' 

King Oscar resented the action of Nor- 
way, refused to accept the address and de- 
clined to consider the proposition to place 
one of his sons on the throne of Norway.

CHICAGO DAILY NEWS ALMANAC AND YEAR-BOOK FOR 1906. 



He called a special session of the riksdag 
of Sweden to consider the situation. The 
members met June 21 and received from 
the government a bill asking for authori- 
zation to negotiate with the Norwegian 
storthing for the settlement of the ques- 
tions involved in the separation of the two 
kingdoms. The bill was referred to a com- 
mittee supposed to be hostile to separation 
and it looked for a time as though war 
might be the outcome of Norway's action. 
The committee reported July 25 that, while 
war would be a justifiable measure in re- 
storing the union, yet the maintenance of 
such a union by force would be a source of 
weakness instead of strength. Sweden 
should not, therefore, employ force, but 
should insist upon Norway asking for per- 
mission to dissolve the union. It recom- 
mended that the question of separation 
should be refened to the people of Norway 
and that in case the vote was in favor of 
dissolving the union Sweden should insist 
on certain terms, the most important be- 
ing the establishment of a neutral zone 
between the two countries, the razing of 
certain fortifications on or near the pro- 
posed zone, freedom of transit and the re- 
lease of Sweden fiom all responsibility for 
Norway to foreign states. On the same diiy 
this report was made the Swedish cabinet 
resigned. The report was approved by both 
houses of the Swedish parliament. 

Norway's parliament consented to the ref- 
erendum proposed by Sweden and the bal- 
loting took place Aug. 13. The sentiment of 
the people was shown to be overwhelmingly 
in favor of separation, 368,200 voting yes 
and only 184 no. The next step was the 
appointment of commissioners by both coun- 
tries to negotiate the conditions of the dis 



solution of the union. Those for Sweden 
were: Christian Lundeberg, the premier; 
Count A. P. Vachtmeister, minister of for- 
eign affairs; M Staaf, member of the cab- 
inet without portfolio, and M. Haimnarsk- 
jold, minister of education and ecclesiasti- 
cal affairs. Voc Norway: Premier Michel- 
sen, Foreign Minister Lovland, C. C. Berner, 
president of the storthing, and M. Vogt, 
former minister of the interior. 

The commissioners met at Karlstad, 
Sweden, Aug. 31, and after protracted ne- 
gotiations reached an agreement Sept. 23. 
This provided for compulsory arbitration 
before The Hague tribunal of all disputes 
not involving matters of vital interest; the 
creation of a neutral zone between the two 
countries; the demolition of ail fortifica- 
tions within this zone except the old por- 
tions of the works at Fredriksten, Gyideu- 
loeve and Overbjerget; freedom of transit 
across the border and regulations for inter- 
tralfic and the use of common waterways. 
It was agreed that no extension of the 
Konsrsvinger group of fortifications should 
be permitted nor should any new forts be 
erected within ten kilometers of the old 
fortress of Kongsvinger. 

The treaty was ratified by the storthing 
of Norway Oct. 1C and by the riksdag of 
Sweden Oct. 13. 

King Oscar having positively declined to 
allow one of his sons to occupy the throne 
of Norway, Prince Charles of Denmark was 
asked to become a candidate. He con- 
sented and was elected king by popular 
vote Nov. 12 and 13. Those who opposed 
him were in favor of establishing a repub- 
lic. On ascending the throne he took the 
title of Haakon VII. 



DIFFERENCE IN TIME. 



By noting the variation in time between 
the cities representing the eastern, central, 
mountain and Pacific divisions in the United 
States and those in Alafcua, Hawaii, Porto 
Rico and the Philippines and in foreign 
countries the variation in time between all 
the other cities in the United States and the 
places named may be easily calculated. 
The time in all cases except where other- 
vise specified is local or actual time.

gineers ot America and Europe met In 
Washington, D. U., to make investigations 
and recommendations as to the type of ca- 
nal to be built, as it had not been decided 
whether it should be a sea-level or a lock 
canal. They visited the Isthmus in October 
lor the purpose o looking over the ground 
in person. 

PLAN AND COST OF CANAL. 

The canal is to extend from Colon on 
the Atlantic side to the city of Panama 
on the Pacific side, a distance of forty-six 
miles. It is to be deep and wide enough 
to accommodate the largest ocean vessels. 
The plans of the French company purchased 
by the United States are subject to change. 
According to these the bottom of the sum- 
mit level ot the canal will have an alti- 
tude of 68.08 feet above mean sea level. 
This level, which is in the Culebra mouu 
tain, is to be 318.35 feet long and 118.11 
feet wide at the bottom. The next level, 
from Obispo to Bohio, with a bottom width 
of 164 feet, is 13.37 miles long. At Bohio 
a group of double locks empties into the 
Atlantic level, which has a width of 98.4 
to 111.5 feet on the bottom and a length 
Of 14.84 miles. 

On the Pacific side the summit level ter- 
minates at Paraiso with one double lock. 
The adjacent level from Paraiso to Pedro 
Miguel is 7,963 feet long and terminates 
with one double lock. The Pacific level 
extends 4.69 miles to La Boca, beyond 
which a channel 3.36 miles )ong is exca- 
vated to deep water. All the locks are to 



be double, the working length for both 
being 738.22 feet. The width of one of the 
twin locks is to be 82.02 feet and tae 
width of the other is 59.05 feet, with an 
intermediate gate. 

The slopes of the canal, especially in the 
deep central trench, are to be protected 
by stone revetments. Of the forty-six miles 
of the canal 26.75 are straight and fifteen 
have radii equal to or not exceeding 9,850 
feet. The curvatures are gentle, the small- 
est radius being 8,200 feet. 

The Chagres river is to be controlled by 
two great dams which will capture and 
control the floods, supplying the summit 
level with water during the dry season, 
feeding the canal and furnishing hydraulic 
power for operating the locks and lighting 
the entire length or the waterway by night. 
One of the dams will be at Bohio on the 
canal and the other at Alhajuela, on the 
upper Chagres, nine and one-third miles 
from the canal. The Bohio dam will form 
a lake covering an area of 21.5 square 
miles with a normal level of 55.75 feet 
above mean tide. The other dam will form 
a reservoir covering ten square miles. It 
will be about 164 feet above the canal. 

It will take a vessel about twelve hours 
to traverse the canal from end to end. 

The total cost of constructing the Pana- 
ma canal on the lock system, not including 
the payments for work done and for tne 
concession, has been estimated at about 
$145,000,000. A sea-level canal will cost 
much more. The annual cost of main- 
tenance will be ?2,000,000.

THE IROQTJOIS THEATER FIHE. 



The Iroquois theater, Chicago, was the 
scene of a terrible calamity on the after- 
noon of Wednesday, Dec. 30, 1903. A mati- 
nee performance of the extravaganza "Mi-. 
Bluebeard" was in progress and the the- 
ater was crowded, chiefly with women and 
children. In the latter part of the second 
act some of the scenery caught fire from an 
unprotected light. The flames spread with 
great rapidity and were forced out into the 
audience room by a strong draft from the 
back part of the building. An attempt 



was made to lower the asbestos curtain, 
but it failed to descend. A frightful panic 
ensued and in their efforts to escape hun- 
dreds were trampled upon and crushed to 
death, while others were suffocated by the 
smoke and heat. Several of the exits were 
barred by locked doors or the loss of life 
would have been less. Altogether 575 per- 
sons lost their lives, most of them in the 
balcony and -gallery. Many received in- 
juries that crippled them for life.

NATIONAL PLATFORMS OF 1904.

party platforms 
11 texts will be 



Following are summaries 

features of the national 

adopted in 1904. The ful 

found in The Daily News Almanac and 

Year-Book for 1905, beginning on page 126. 

REPUBLICAN. The platform advocates the 
principle of protection and reciprocity, the 
maintenance of the gold standard, the en- 
couragement of the merchant marine, the 
upbuilding of the navy, the exclusion of 
Chinese labor, honest enforcement of the 
civil-service law, liberal administration of 
the pension laws, arbitration, the protec- 
tion of American citizens abroad, the re- 
duction of representation in congress and 
the electoral college of states in which 
the elective franchise is unconstitution- 
ally limited, and the control of combina- 
tions of capital and labor. The declara- 
tion in regard to protection is: "We in- 
sist upon the maintenance of the princi- 
ples of protection and therefore rates of 
duty should be readjusted only when con- 
ditions have so changed that the public 
interest demands their alteration. But 
this work cannot be safely committed to 
any other hands than those of the repub- 
lican party." 

DEMOCRATIC. The enactment of laws civ- 
ing labor and capital impartially their 
just rights, trial by jury for indirect con- 
tempt, liberal appropriations for the im- 
provement of waterways, reductions in 
the expenditures of the government, hon- 
esty in the public service and the preser- 
vation of the "open door" for commerce 
in the orient are favored. The platform 
declares against imperialism and the re- 
tention of the Philippines, denounces pro- 
tection as a robbery of the many for the 
enrichment of the few, and favors the re- 
vision and general reduction of the tariff 
by the friends of the masses and for the 
common weal and not by the friends of 
its abuses. Trusts and combinations are 
denounced as a menace to beneficial com- 
petition and rebates and discriminations 
by transportation companies are declared 
to be the most potent agency in promot- 
ing and strengthening unlawful conspir- 
acies against trade. Demands of the 
platform include: The election of United 
States senators by a direct vote of the 
people; the admission to statehood of 
Oklahoma, Indian Territory, Arizona and 
New Mexico; the extermination of polyg- 
amy; the defeat of the ship-subsidy bill; 
the maintenance of the Monroe doctrine: 
the reduction of the army and army ex- 
penditures; the enforcement of the civil- 
service laws, and the defeat of the at- 
tempt to revive race prejudices. 



SOCIALIST. The platform pledges the party 
to work and vote for shortened davs of 
labor and increased wages; for the in- 
surance of workers against sickness, ac- 
cident and lack of employment; for pen- 
sions for aged and e\hausted workers; for 
public ownership of the means of trans- 
portation, communication and exchange; 
for the graduated taxation of incomes, 
inheritances and of franchise and land 
values; for equal suffrage of men and 
women; for the prevention of the use of 
military against labor in the settlement 
of strikes; for the free administration of 
justice; for the initiative, referendum and 
proportional representation and for the re- 
call of officers by their constituents. These 
things, it is declared, are but a prepara- 
tion of the workers to seize the whole pow- 
ers of government in order that they may 
thereby lay hold of the whole system of 
industry and thus come into their right- 
fu: inheritance. 

PROHIBITIONIST. The platform pledges the 
party, whenever given the power by the 
suffrage of the people, to the enactment 
and enforcement of laws prohibiting and 
abolishing the manufacture, importation, 
transportation and sale of alcoholic bev- 
erages and favors a rigid application of 
the principles of justice to all combina- 
tions of capital and labor, international 
arbitration, reform of divorce laws, the 
final extirpation of polygamy and the over- 
throw of the system of illegal sanction 
of the social evil. 

POPULIST. It is demanded that all money 
shall be issued by the government in such 
quantities as shall maintain a stability 
in prices, every dollar to be a full legal 
tendei; that postal banks be established; 
that the right of labor to organize shall 
not be interfered with; that laws be 
passed to abolish child labor and suppress 
convict labor and sweatshops and that the 
government shall own the railroads and 
telegraph and telephone systems. The 
eight-hour day is favored and legal pro- 
vision under which the people may exer- 
cise the initiative, referendum and pro 
portion il representation, ard direct vote 
for all public officers with right of recall 
are urged. 

SOCIALIST-LABOR. The platform urges that 
a summary end be put to the existing 
class conflict by placing the land and all 
the means of production, transportation 
and distribution into the hands of the 
people as a collective body and substitut- 
ing the co-operative commonwealth for 
the present planless production, indus- 
trial war and social disorder. 



NATIONAL RECIPROCITY CONVENTION. 



Held in the Illinois theater, Chicago, Aug. 
16 and 17, 1905; S. B. Packard of Marshall- 
town, Iowa, chairman. Resolutions 
adopted : 

The national reciprocity convention, rep- 
resenting more than 200 agricultural, com- 
mercial and industrial associations of the 
United States, by delegates assembled at 
Chicago Aug. 16 and 17, 1905, hereby makes 
the following declaration of principles: 

Whereas, the agriculture, manufactures 
and other industries of this country have 
expanded tc such an extent that they can 



no longer depend upon the home market for 
the consumption of their entire product; and 

Whereas, the present commercial atti- 
tude of the United States, largely owing to 
our failure to carry into effect the recipro- 
cal trade provisions of section 4 of the 
Dingley law, is antagonizing foreign na 
ticns. whose good will we desire and on 
v\ horn we have hitherto depended as pur- 
chasers of our surplus product; therefore 
be it 

Kesolved: 1. That this convention, rec 
ognizing the principle of protection as the 



WORK OF THE FIFTY-EIGHTH CONGRESS. 



143 



established policy of c-ur country, advocates 
immediate reciprocal concessions by means 
of a dual maximum and minimum tariff as 
the only practical method of relieving at 
this time the strained situation with which 
^ve are oon fronted. 

2. That eventually the Question of the 
coheOuJes and items to be considered in re- 
ciprocal concessions be suggested by a per- 
manent tariff commission, to be created by 



congress and appointed by the president, 
which shall consist of economic, industrial 
and commercial experts. 

3. That it is the sense of this convention 
that our present tan:T affords abundant op- 
portunity for such concessions without in- 
jury to industry, trade or the wages of 
labor. 

4. That we urge action upon congress at 
the earliest time possible.

VENEZUELAN ASPHALT DISPUTE. 



In 1883 the Venezuelan government grant- 
ed to Horatio R. Hamilton, an American, a 
concession to mine aspnalt in the state of 
l',ermudez. Two years later, with the ap- 
pioval of Venezuela, Hamilton transferred 
tl is concession to the New York and Bermu- 
der company, a New ork corporation. In 
1888 the company secured a mining titit 
for ninety-nine years to Bermudez lake, a 
deposit of asphalt, and a fee-simple to 
tvi'lve square miles of land around the lake. 
In 1897, when the shipments of asphalt uy 
the company became heavy and profitable, 
vr lions suits were brought against the con- 
cessioners by the Venezuelan government, 
and in July, 1905, a depositary, or receiver, 
fcr the property was appointed f-y the Fed- 
eral and Cassation court. The reason as- 
signed for the appointment of the receiver 
was the failure o f the company to make a 
canal out of a certain stream on the ground 
tl<at it was impracticable. 

It is claimed by the New York company 



that the receiver, Instead of acting in its 
behalf, has used the company's capital and 
plant to mine asphalt and deliver it to a 
rival concern. It is> denied that the company 
hair, been connected with any revolutionary 
movement in Venezuela. The United States 
government has protested against the actioi 
of Venezuela in the matter, but has takei 
no other steps except to refer the dispute 
to congress. 

In conn-jction with the asphalt contro- 
versy Herbert Bowen, United States min 
ister to Venezuela, made charges to the 
stfte department in Washington that his 
predecessor in office, Francis B. L/ooniis, had 
ergaged in transactions unbecoming In an 
official representative of the United States. 
These charges were investigated by Secre 
tary of War Tart and in a report made 
public by President Koosevelt June 20, 1905, 
\\ere declared to l^e unfounded. Mr. 1-Jowen 
was thereupon discharged from the diplo- 
matic service.

District court in Cleveland March 6 and 
ended in a verdict of guilty March 11. She 
was sentenced to ten years' imprisonment. 
Mrs. Chadwick was accused of obtaining 
large sums of money from various banks on 
the strength of a note purporting to have 
been signed by Andrew Carnegie, and many 
sensational stories concerning her financial 
dealings were printed in November and De- 
cember, 1904, and January, 1905. E. D. 
Beckwith of the Citizens' National bank 
of Oberlin, O., loaned her $102,000 of his 
own money and $240,000 belonging to the 
bank on the strength apparently of the 
forged note, and both he and the bank went 
down to ruin. Several other small banks 
in Ohio were involved and had to close 
their dojrs. 

HANSON. Inga Hanson was charged with 
perjury in a damage suit against the Chi- 
cago City Railway company for $50,000. 
She claimed to have been injured in March, 

"8. In the first trial of the damage suit 
the jury stood eleven to one in her favor; 
in the second trial, begun Nov. 3, 1903, the 
proceedings came to a close when detectives 
testified that she was a fraud and that she 
was not blind, deaf, dumb and paralyzed 
as she claimed. The trial for perjury be- 
gan Dec. 28, 1904, and ended in a verdict 
of guilty Feb. 10, 1905. 

HOCH. Johann Hoch was accused of caus- 
ing the death of his wife, Marie Walcker- 
Hoch, by means of arsenical poisoning. 
Her death occurred in Chicago Jan. 12, 1905. 
Hoch had been married several times and 
it was alleged that some of his wives died 
under suspicious circumstances. His trial 
began April 19 and ended May 19 in a ver- 



dict of guilty, the jury recommending the 
death penalty. 

MITCHELL. John H. Mitchell, United 
States senator from Oregon, was indicted 
Dec. 31, 1904, in connection with the land 
frauds in his own state and California. He 
was tried on the charge of accepting a 
pecuniary consideration for practicing be- 
fore the federal departments in Washing- 
ton while occupying his public position. 
He was found guilty by a jury in Portland, 
Ore., July 3, 1905, and July 25 was sen- 
tenced to pay a fine of $1,000 and six 
months' penal servitude. 

PATTERSON. Nan Patterson, an actress, 
was accused of killing Frank T. or "Cae- 
sar" Young, a racetrack gambler, in a cab 
in New York city June 4, 1904. She was 
placed on trial Nov. 16, but the illness of 
a juror brought the case to a close Nov. 26. 
Her second trial began Dec. 5 and ended 
Dec. 23 in a disagreement by the jury. 
She was placed on trial for the third time 
April 17, 1905, and the case went to the 
jury May 3. Another disagreement was the 
lesult and she was finally released May 12. 

PERRY. Isaac N. Perry, former president 
of the National Bank of North America in 
Chicago, was accused of having set fire 
to the car and locomotive shops at Hege- 
wiseh, 111., Oct. 9, 1904. The motive al- 
leged was that he wanted to get the in- 
surance on the plant amounting to about 
$200,000 in order to recoup himself for a 
doubtful loan of $185,000 to the car com- 
pany. The trial began in Judge McEwen's 
court April 10, 1905, and ended May 5 in 
a verdict of not guilty. 

TAOGART. Capt. Elmore P. Taggart sued 
his wife, Grace Culver Taggart, for divorce 
in July, 1904, while she tiled a counter-pe- 
tition at Wooster, O. The case came to 
trial in the latter place Aug. 1, 1905. The 
proceedings in court lasted seven weeks 
and a decision was given Oct. 13 in favor 
of the husband.

DISASTER ON THE GTTNBOAT BENNTNGTON. 



WMle the United States ffimboat Ben- 
cington was lying at anchor in the harbor 
of Snn IMego, Cal., July 21, 1905, one or 
the boilers exploded. Fifty-eight of the 
crew were killed and forty-six injured. 
Most of the men on board were assembiea 
between decks, above the boilers, wiien 
the explosion took place. Many were 
iliurled overboard and narrowly escaned 
drowning. The wounded were rescued 



with difficulty from the ship, which was 
filled with escaping steam and which was 
beached to prevent her irom sinking. The 
only officer killed was Ensign N. K.. Perry 
of South Carolina. Commander Lucien 
oung was ashore when the accident oc- 
curred. The boiler which exploded had 
been suspected of weakness but had been 
passed by the inspectors.

RECORD OP RACES TO DATE. 

1851 Aug. 22. In this, the year of the great 
exhibition in London, the Royal Yacht club 
of England offered a cup to the winner of 
a yacht race around the Isle of Wight. 
The course was 60 miles in length and 
was won by the schooner-yacht America, 
designed by George Steers for John C. 
Stevens of the New York Yacht club. The 
America was 94 feet over all, 88 feet on the 
water line, 22% feet beam and 11% feet 
draft. There was no time allowance 
and the competing yachts ranged in size 
from a three-masted 392-ton schooner, the 
Brilliant, to the 47-ton cutter, the Aurora, 
which came in second in the race. The 
time of tbe America was 10 hours and 34 
minutes; that of the Aurora was 24 minutes 
slower. The cup after that became known 
as the America's cup and has now been 
successfully defended for fifty-four years.
