I I Peace Jubilee Week Attracts Tremendous Crowds. ..— w 100,000 ON OCTOBER 12th. Tbe t*re»l(lent the (treat Drawing t'ai'il— Wlmt He Said In a Quite latugllijr Aililrw. to thu Vnat Crowd. The great feature of the Traus-Mis stssippl exposition on the 12th was the visit of the president of the United States, who spent tho entire day on the grounds. Soon after the urrlval the nation's chief executive was con ducted to the Plaza, and after an in vocation by Hcv. John McQoid, of the First Methodist church, Omaha, spoke to tho vast assembly as follows: Gentlemen of the Trans-MIsslsslppI Exposition and Fellow Citizens: It Is with genuine pleasure that I meet once more the people of Omaha, whose wealth of welcome Is not altogether unfamiliar to me and whose warm hearts have before touched and moved me. For this renewed manifestation of your regard and for the cordial re ception of today my heart responds with profound gratitude und a deep appreciation which I cannot conceal, and which tho language of compliment is Inadequate to convey. My greeting Is not alone to your city and the state of Nebraska, but to the people of all the states of the Trans-Mlssiisslppl group participating here, and I cannot withhold congratulations on the evi dences of their prosperity furnished by this great exposition. If testimony were neoded to establish the fact that their pluck haH not deserte.d them, and that prosperity Is again with them, It Is found here. This picture dispels all doubt. In the age of expositions they have added yet another magnificent exam ple. The historical celebrations at Philadelphia and Chicago, and the splendid exhibits at New Orleans, At lanta and Nashville, are now a part of the past, and yet In Influence they still live, and their beneficent results are closely Interwoven with our national development. Similar rewards will honor the authors and patrons of the Trans-MIsslsslppI and International Exposition. Their contribution will mark another epoch in the nation's material advancement. One of the great laws of life is pro gress. and nowhere have the principles of this law been so strikingly Illus trated as in the United States. A cen tury and a decade of our national life have turned doubt Into conviction; changed experiment into demonstra tion; revolutionized old methods and won new triumphs which have chal lenged the attention of the world. This Is true not only of the accumulation of material wealth and advance In edu cation, science. Invention and manu factures, but above ell In the oppor tunities to tbe people for their own elevation, which have been secured by wise free government. Hitherto, In peace and In war, with additions to our territory and slight changes In our laws, we have steadily enforced t o spirit of the constitution secured to us by the noble self-sacri fice and far-seeing sagacity of our an cestors. We have avoided the tempta tions of conquest In the spirit of gain. With an Increasing love for our in stitutions and an abiding faith In their stability, we have made the triumphs of our system of government In toe progress and tbe prosperity of our peo ple an inspiration to the whole human race. Confronted at this moment by new and grave problems, we must recognize that their solution will affect not ourselves alone, but others of the ramiiy or nations. In this age of frequent Interchange and mutual dependency, we cannot shirk our International responsibili ties If wo would; they must be met with courage and wisdom and we must follow duty even if desire opposes. No deliberation can be too mature, or self control too constant, In this solemn hour of our history. We must avoid the temptation of undue agression, and aim to secure only such results as will promote our own and the gen eral good. It has been said by some one that the normal condition of nations Is war. That Is not true of the United States. We never enter upon war until every effort for peace without It has been exhausted. Ours has never been a military government. Peace, with whose blessings we have been so sin gularly favored, is the national desire, and the goal of every American aspi ration. On the 25th of April, for the first time for more than a generation, the United States sounded the call to arms. The banners of war were unfurled; the best and bravest front every section responded; a mighty army was en rolled; the north and the south vied with each other In patriotic devotion; science was Invoked to furnish Its most effective weapons; factories were rushed to supply equipment, the youth and veteran Joined Hi freely offering their service* to their country; volun teers and regulars and all the people rallied to the support of the republic. There was no break In the line, no halt in the march, no fear in the heart. No resistance to the oatrlotlc Impulse at home, no successful resistance to the patriotic spirit of tba troops fight ing hi distant water* or on a foreign shore! What a wonderful experience It haa been from the atandnolut of patriotism and achievement! The storm broke ao suddenly that It wav hers almost be fore we realised It, Our navy was too small, though forceful with Its mod ern equipment and moat fortunate In Ha trained officers and sailors. Our army had years ago been reduced to a peace footing. We bad only 19,000 available troops when the war waa declared, but the account which offi cere and tueu gave of ihemaelve* on the battlefields has never been sur passed The manhood was there and everywhere Am*r an patriotism was then and Its resources were limitless The courageous *nd Invincible spirit t*f the people proved glorious, and those who were a little more than a third at a century ago divided and nt war with each other were again united under the holt standsru of liberty i'auiotUra bauuhed s ure> feeling. $50,000,000 for the national defense was appropriated without debate or division, as a matter of course, and as only a mere indication of our mighty reserve power. Hut if tills Is true of the beginning of the war, what snail we say of it now, with hostKItles suspended, and peace near at hand, as we fervently hope? Matchless In Its results! Un equaled in Its completeness and the quick succession with which victory followed victory! Attained earlier than It was believed to be possible; comprehensive tu Its sweep that every thoughtml man feels the weight of responsibility which has been so sud denly thrust upon us. And above all and beyond all, the valor of the Amer ican army and the bravery of the Amerean navy and the majesty of th® American name stand forth In unsul lied glory, while the humanity of our purposes and the magnanimity of our conduct have given to war, always hor rible, touches of noble generosity, t'hrlstlun sympathy und charity, and examples of human grandeur wnieh can never be lost to mankind. I’asslon and bitterness formed no part of our Impelling motive, and It In gratifying to feel that humanity triumphed at every step of the war’s progress. The heroes of Manila and Hantlago and Porto Rico have made Immortal history. They are worthy successors and descendants of Washington and Greene; of Paul Jones, Decatur and Hull, and of Grant, Hhermnn, Sheridan and lx>gan; of Farragut. Porter and Cushing, and of Dee, Jackson und Dongstreet. New names stand out on the honor roll of the nation's great men and with them unnamed stand the heroes of the trenches and the forecastle, Invinci ble In battle and uncomplaining In death. The Intelligent, loyal Indom itable soldier and sal!or and marine, regular and volunteer, are entitled to equal praise us having done their whole duty, whether at home or under the baptism of tire. Who will dim the splendor of thelT achievements! Who will withhold from them their well earned distinc tion! Who will Intrude detraction at this time to belittle the manly spirit of the American youth and Impair the usefulness of the —raerloan army! Who will embarrass the government by sow ing seeds of dissatisfaction among the brave men who stand ready to serve and die. If need tie, for their country! Who will darken the counsels of the republic In this hour requiring the united wisdom of all! Hnali we deny ourselves what the rest of the world ao freely and so Justly accords to us? The men who endured In the short but decisive struggle Its Hardships, its privations, whether in Held or camp, on ship or in the siege, and planned and achieved Its victories, will never tolerate Im peachment, either direct or Indirect, of those wno won a peace whose great gain to civilization is yet unknown and unwritten. The faith of a Cnrlstlan nation rec ognizes the hand of Almighty God In the ordeal through which we have passed. Divine favor seemed manifest everywhere. In flighting for human ity’s sake we have been signally bless ed. We did not seek war. To avoid It, if this could be done In justice and honor to the rights of our neighbors and ourselves, was our constant pray er. The war was no more Invited by us than were the questions which are laid at our door by Its results. Now, as then, we will do our duty. The problems will not be solved In a (lay. Patience will be required; patience combined with sincerity of purpose and unshaken resolution to do tight, seeking only the highest good of the nation and recognizing no other ob ligation, pursuing no other path but that of duty. Itlght action follows right purpose. We may not at all times be able to di vine the future, the way may not al ways seem clear; hut If our aims are high Bnd unselfish, somehow and In some way the right end will be reach ed. The genius of the nation. Its free dom, its wisdom. Its humanity. Its courage, its Justice, favored by Divine Providence, will make It equal to every task and the master of every emer gency.

NO PANIC AMONG THE CREW. — I.lf* Host* W«« Driven Dark by the Dale—Perfect Order In the Crew of the Wrecked Velvet Survivor* Ilruieed on the It Kike. Falmouth. Kngland, Oct. 17. The British steamer Mohegan, Captain OrlfHths, belonging to the Atlantic Transport company, lias been wreaked in the vicinity of the Lizard, between the Manaclas and tiie Lowland*. It is believed ttiat about sixty-eight of her passenger* anil crew were drowned. Only 100 survivors have readied tiie shore. The Mohegan was formerly the Cleo patra of the Wilson und Kurnuits Leyland line. She left l,ondoii for Mew York Thursday, having on board, so far as can lie ascertained at present, fifty-nine passengers and a crew of 115 officers anil men. Tiie general opinion is that the machinery of tiie Mohegau became dis abled during tiie heavy easterly gale, which was blowing, and that sho ran ashore nml foundered. A number of tugs, which put out from this port to tiie assistance of the Mohegan, were compelled to return without approach ing tiie vessel, owing to the severity of the weather. A lifeboat landed thirty-ons of the passengers and crew of tiie Mohegan. One of tiie passengers, a woman, died lifter she was brought ashore. An other life boat later landed sixteen more survivors. As tlio day wore on further reports received hero allowed that forty-five survivor* of tiie Mohe gan were landed at Port lioustock, Cornwall, and the bodies of five dead persons had been recovered. Then came the announcement that fourteen of the crew of the wrecked steamer had been found alive on the rock* near the scene of the disaster. Tiie reports received as to the num ber of survivors are extremely contra dictory. It is possible that the forty o. . » _ . < •* a. e e a . i . n*n nui titvi * uv i t/i v iii/uu n isinajr be those rescued In the two journeys which the life-boat at that place made to the wreck. This would increase the number lost to at least 113. home of the rescued persons died froip ex haustion after landing. Everything possible is doing to secure a correct list of the drowned and survivors. One of the survivors of the Mohegan, Mr. George Maule of New York, after he had sufficiently recovered to be able to tell the story of the wreck, said: “1 am a shipper of horses employed by the American Transport company. We left London Thursday end all went well until 7 o’clock yesterday evening, when most of the passengers were at dinner. The steamer was going at full speed and suddenly we hoard a loud crash, which seemed to show that we had collided with some other ves sel. Hut when we rushed on deck we found the Mohegan was upon the rooks In the vicinity of the Lizard. “Orders were given immediately to lower the boats, and the crew of the Hteamer behaved like heroes. Her cap tain stood upon the bridge and the greatest order prevailed among the of ficers and crew. “The steamer, however, immediately began to settle by the head. Two boats were launched. The women were sent away in the first bout. Hut whether these bouts reached laud 1 do not know. “I managed to secure a life belt and jumped overboard in company with the chief officer of the Mohegan, Mr. Couch. He made me take off iny coat and shoes. Soon after that wo were pnrted from each other. When 1 was leaving the vessel a little girl begged piteously that 1 try to save her, as she did not want to die yet. 1 was power less to help her. “Eventually 1 caught hold of a plank which was floating upon the water and 1 clung to it for seven and u half hours. At the end of that time I was picked up by a tug. I could not nave lasted much longer. “1 cannot exp'aln how the accident occiii red. The whole matter is not very clear to me." From other sources it was learned that the Mohegan sank about twenty minutes after she ran upon the rocks. The local seamen who have been inter viewed upon the subject, appaar un able to explain how the Mohegan got into such a position. One of the passengers reseuod by the Port Houstock lifeboat saya that all the passengers were dining when the catastrophe occurred, though some of the children and those who were sea sick were in their bunks. Huddeuly the Mohegan struck with a grating noise. At first the engineers thought this was caused by coal failing down in the bunkers, but a second shuck fol lowed aud the Uiat began W> settle. A coast guardsiuau who was on duty at t'overaot says he noticed the Mohegan was pursuing a dangerous course. William Mam, a seaman of the M ohegan. balungiug tu Limlun, was among the tueu who succeeded In ; reaching Port Houstock He said the | vessel struck forward on the starUiard ! h»w and sank head first, tier stern ria ing right np in the air.

Ihuseawoa thin running heavily and the UfetMat waa nearly full of , water, and after escaping two or three rocks she was dashed to pieces. Moore and Ilitsoh wore washed ashore. A. Orosmith, a first cabin passenger, who says ho belongs to Guilford, but had been engaged in fanning in tho United States for the last ten years, is another of the surrivers. lie said: "During the panic l jumped overboard and swam about an hour, 1 reached a rock and tried to climb upon It, but the waves were too strong for me. 1 afterwards found a raft with a sail on it and I held up the sail with one arm and floated toward the shore. "While on tho raft 1 was washed right over ono rock. Happily, I had on a life belt ami recovered the raft, which then struck another rock, to which I held fast for some time. After wards 1 swam ssiiore, tho land beiug only a short distance away from tho rock to which I was clinging." All the survivors are in a pitiable condition and some of them have been badly injured by waves and rocks and arc suffering from bruises and torn and fractured limbs. Only the smokestack and mast of tho Mohegan can be seen above water. The Mohegnu is a single-screw steel vessel of 4,510 tons register, 4HO feet long, fifty-two feet in beam and about thirty-six feet iu depth of hold. Hhe had accommodations for 1*5 passengers and a capacity for 700 cattle. (She is one of the fivo vessels recently pur chase:! from tho Wilson and Furncss Lcvland lino by the Atlantic Trans port company to replace tho Mohawk, Mobile, Massachusetts, Michigan and Mississippi, which wero sold to the United States government to be used as transports. The Lizard is the southernmost point in England. Jt is at the extreme southwest of tho island, lying just across from the Land's End in South ern Cornwall. It is about 400 miles from Ixmdon by water. Htvphrn Crsns'i Will Missing. London, (lot, 1 .—A crowd gathered to-day at the London office of the At lantic Transport company to which the wrecked steamer Mohcgan lie longed. A number of woman fainted there when the extent of the calamity became known and there was a con stant stream of telograph boys run ning to and from the office. Among those who are still missing are Mrs. 8. C. Crane, believed to lie the wife of 8tephen Crane, the novelist, and Mr. J. Ifyslop, who la believed to be the official moseurer of the Now York Yacht club. Miss Kondburn la the American op eratic singer, who is professionally known as Maud Rounds. 8he tele graphed to a relative In lamdon to day, saying: "Hhip wrecked. Mother dead." The Mohcgan, It Is now said, ho# been unlucky from the start It is added that she was bought by the Transport company when its own boats had been sold to the United Htatos government during the war. She had mode only one voyagu out and home. That, It is asserted, whs most unsatisfactory, anil tho friends of the crew now say that her engines wore defective and that her boilers leaked. 8he is further alleged to have arrived In New York in such a condition that she was sent home empty. Her return voyage took several weeks, during which aha drifted a whole dsy and night owing to trouble with her engines. For the last two weeks the steamer has been in dock undergoing repairs, but the managers say she was in per fect condition when she left port on this, her first voyage under her now name. It Is assorted, however, that la a twenty-four hour trial last week, her performances were very unsatis factory and the c:.nv did not wish to go on her on account of the previous defect in her ongiues. It is surmised here that her engines broke down and thut the vessel, in the rough sea and heavy gale, drifted upon tho rocks. Tho wrecked steamer was command ed by Captain Urlftiths. Kerchief offi cer was Mr. Couch, her second officer Mr. Cole sad her third officer Mr. Kindmarsh. No Passes For Ibe Voter*. Topkka.
