LIBERTY BELL IS
EN ROUTE TO
: 'FRISCO
PHILADELPHIA, July 7.—The Lib
erty Bell, precious relic of the Ameri
can Revolution, started Monday on Its
eighth and longest Journey from
Philadelphia Bince It was first hung in
the old State House of the Province
of Pennsylvania in 1752. It goes to
the Panama-Pacific International Ex
position and before it is returned to
its big glass case in Independence Hall
next November or December, It will
have traveled more than 10,000 miles
and have been seen by millions of
people.
r—.. —
On its journey to San Francisco the
I,il>erty Bell spoclal train will traverse
Pennsylvhnia, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois,
Iowa, Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska,
Colorado, Wyoming, Utah, Idaho,
Washington, Oregon and California.
Elaborate arrangements have been
made for the journey and everything
that will aid in safe-guarding the bell
from injury has been done. Four
policemen from the Philadelphia traf
fic squad will guard the relic until it
is again returned to its home.
At sunrise Monday workmen re
moved the bell from its case and put
it on the special hanger that will sup
port it across the country. It was
wheeled on a truck into Independence
Square where patriotic exercises were
held. At noon the First Brigade,
Pennsylvania National Guard escorted
the bell to the West Philadelphia sta
tion of the Pennsylvania Railroad
where it was hoisted on a special car.
At 3 p. m. the bell train with a party
of 26 city councilmen commenced its
journey. j
The train consists of a baggage car,
'liner, three sleepers, a special car for
the reception of guests en route, and
a car for the bell which Is at the
rear. This is a specially constructed
flat car, with an Iron railing at the
sides and ends. American flags will
wave from staffs at each corner and
there will be othe. decorations In
American colors.
Cities traversed in the night will
get a glimpse of the relic, a system of
illumination having been devised that
will throw a blaze of light on the bell
as It passes through in the darkness.
Shock absorbers have been installed
on the flat car to keep the bell from
being jolted. The tram crews will be
specially picked for tnelr carefulness
In starting and stopping trains. The
speed limits across the continent will
not be less thin 18 miles an hour nor
more than 35 miles. The schedule will
he rigidly observed so that crowds
may not be kept waiting beyond the
time appointed for the train to go
through their communities.
There will be no official souvenirs
of the journey except those dis
tributed by the escorting committee.
The committee also refused to make
any concessions to moving picture
concerns, virtually every such enter
prise in the country having applied
for the privilege of sending represen
tatives on the trip. The committee,
however, purchased a special moving
picture machine for Its own use. Pic
tures will be taken through the jour
ney and films will be furnished to pub
lic schools without expense. In short
the City Council has placed a strict
ban upon commercialism in connec
tion with the trip. The bell will reach
Seattle July 14 and will arrive in San
Francisco Friday night, July 16. and
Saturday, July 17, will be Liberty Bell
Day at the Exposition. Early in the
morning the relic will be conveyed, to
its place in the Pennsylvania build
ing on the Exposition grounds where
exercises will be held.
The bell will leave San Francisco In
November and will return by the
Southern route, through Los Angeles,
San Diego, Arizona and Texas. The
details of the return trip have not yet
been completed, but It is virtually cer
tain that the special train will go
through St. Louis, Tndlanapolis and
Cincinnati.
