WEIGHTS AND MEASURES.
What Enactments Have Been Made
by Congress.

The acting superintendent of the coast and
geodetic survey, in answer to an inquiry
from the Secretary of the Treasury, states
that Congress has never made any enact
ment establishing standards of weights and
measures for the United States except in the
case of the troy pound, and that all our
standards have become so by usage only,
having been in use in the various colonies
prior to the Revolution. John @. Adams, in
1921, made report to the Senate on the adj
visibility of adopting uniform system of
weights and measures, but nothing came of
it until 1928, when the troy pound, a copy of
the English standard, was declared by act of
Congress to be the standard for the United
States mint. In 1880 the Senate directed
new comparison to be made of the weight
measure in use in the various custom
houses. This work was intrusted to Prof.
HasSler superintendent of the coast survey
who found much discrepancy to exist. He
procured accurate copies OF the British
standards, and upon his recommendation
these were adopted as standards by the
Treasury Department in 1882 To secure
uniformity throughout the country Con-
greSs, by joint resolution in 1885, directed
that complete sets of these standards be fur
nished in the different States. The standard
English gallon, of which ours is an exact
copy, is defined as containing 5S,3722 grains
of distilled water at its maximum density
weighed in air of the temperature of go
Fahrenheit and barometic pressure OF 80
inches. Our method of testing a gallon or
any other capacity measure is by weighing
with distilled water as indicated by the
above definition. The precise condition of
density, temperature, and atmospheric pres
sure are not always attainable, but existing
conditions are observed and the necessary
corrections applied to the results.

PHOTOGRAPHIC BRUTALITY.
The Provost MarshaI's Action at the
Execution of Dacoits-

LONDON, Jan. 28.-The provost marshal at
Mandalay has had lately to superintend the
execution of numbers of Burmese Dacoits
Not content with having them shot down in
ordinary business fashion, the provost mar
shall, who has morbid taste for amateur
photography, has on several occasions added
unspeakable torture to his victims death
pangs by delaying the interval between or
ders to present and fire" long enough to
allow him to take two or three negatives
with the camera he carries about with him.
He pleads scientific interest as an excuse for
his barbarity, but so far he has nothing even
scientific to show in Self-defence, for, being
a poor hand at photography, his attempts to
fix the horror and anguish OF violent death
on his negatives has been abOrtiye The
provost marShal'S methods were so lelSurely
that the absence of results is surprising.
Having had the prisoners drawn up in line
against wall, he would station the firing
platoon before them and get the camera into
position and calmly prepare his plates. The
officer commanding the soldiers was instruct
ed not to give the fatal signal till the plate
was exposed Thus the most interesting
negatives were obtained at the very moment
of the prisoners death agony. On one occa-
sion he varied his scientific sports by extort-
ing discriminating evidence against the Bur-
mese minister from native named Woognet
by threatening him with execution. Five
Dacoits have been shot in Wooguet's pres
ence. He himself was then placed against
the wall. The platoon was ordered to level
its guns at him, and he was thus eowed into
making the desired statements after the fash
ion which prevailed in the tower of London
in the 10th century. The British commits
si0ner declined to act on such evidence. The
provost marshal's brutality so exasperated
the English and native spectators that it was
only the presence of troops which prevented
the attempt to lynch him. In Difference to
the indignant protests rigid inquiry. has
been ordered, and this modern inquisitor
ernment will undoubtedly rigidly inquire in
to these facts. 1t is no wonder the Times
correspondent was ordered away from camp.

Another BOOK bv Mr.. Blaine

Mr. Blaine is just now resting after the
completion of the second volume of his
Twenty Years of Congress-" He has sent
the corrected proof sheets all back to the
publishers and expects that the book will be
ready for sale next week. A Washington
correspondent of the Boston Globe learns
that it is Mr.. Blaine's intention to take a
vacation of few weeks and then commence
work on another book dealing with an earlier
period in the history of the country than that
covered in the volumes he has just finished.
He has grown interested in historical writ
ing and in preparing the Introductory chap
ters to his first volume, harvested many
points that seem worthy of more careful
study and explanation than any that has
been given them. He will take some of them
up, study the period in the midst of which
they occurred, elaborate and expand the
story in his easy literary style, and in
corporate with it his opinions and sugges-
tions until he hopes it can be made almost
equally interesting with his present book.

Darkness the Excuse for the unpro.
yoked and Bloody Affair.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 2S.-A telegram was
received at the Preside last night from Fort
Bowie, Arizona, signed by Gen. Crook, Civ
ing the contents of a despatch received by
the latter from Lieut.. Maus, dated Nacori,
Chihuahua, Mexico, Jan. 12 1t states that
the troops under command of Capt. Craw-
ford, Jan. II, surrounded and attacked an
Indian camp five miles southeast of Nacori.
A two hours running fight occurred. A
number of Indians were wounded, but all
escaped. The hostiles sent word that they
wished to hold a conference.
While the troops were in camp ava ltlng
the time fixed for the conference, they were
attacked by 145 Mexican soldiers. Efforts
were made to apprise the MeXicans that the
troops were Americans and friends, Capt
Crawford and Lieut.. Maus were advancing
to talk with them when they fired a volley.
Capt. Crawford was shot in the head, and
Mr.. Horn, the interpreter, was slightly
wounded in the arm. The Mexican fire was
partly returned by the scouts of Capt. Craw-
fords command, but it was only sufficient to
keep the Mexicans at distance. The firing
lasted half an hour, when Lieut.. Maus sue
ceeded in having talk with the officer in
charge of the Mexicans, their captain hav-
ing been killed. He was told that the
Americans were taken for hostiles, owing to
the darkness.
Capt Crawford was mortally wounded, Mr..
Horn and two Indians slightly wounded.
The Mexican loss was four killed and five
wounded.

THE FISHERIES.
The Question Discussed Before the
Foreign Affairs Committee.
IRnStnn .IOurnal.l


The discussion of the fisheries question be.
fore the foreign affairs committee of the
House on Tuesday, took a wide sweep. Mr..
w. H. Trescott, formerly connected with
the State Department, led off with a master
ly analysis of the correspondence between
Minister West and Mr.. Bayard, laying espe-
cial emphasis on the fact that he was not
there to dispute the Presidents constitution
al right to appoint commission, and there
after submit the treaty negotiated by that
commission to the approval of Congress, but
claiming that the correspondence between
Secretary Bayard and Minister West, if ac-
cepted by Congress, committed this country
to principles which it was not the wish of
the people should be established.
Judge Charles Levi Woodbury. followed
with a lucid argument, which was not conf
pleted when the committee found it neeessa-
ry to adjourn in order to attend the meeting
of the House, but the impression he made
was so marked that it was unanimously
agreed to continue the discussion to Thurs
day next, and to meet half an hour earlier in
order to give Judge Woodbury. time to COM
plete his statement. One of the most Strik-
ing points made by Judge Woodbury. was
the exhibition Of statistics showing the value
OF Cne ln-SDOre HSn6IleS To Tile OuIIeu OIdIeS
in return for which we paid so much, both
directly and indirectly. He brought from
Provincetown, Mass, the accounts of four
fishing schooners, one of which may be tax
en- as an example: The cost of the schooner
was about $4,000; the net loss to the captain
and mate on the seasons fishing was about
$1,000; the returns to the owners were 1915,
as against the interest on an expenditure of
$4,000, and an annual charge of about $1,000
more. 1t was for this privilege, he said, that
the United States had paid, by the Halifax
award. $5,5Oo,0Oo, and it was this treaty
which it was now proposed to continue. He
asserted that the only hope which had kept
the American flag afloat on New England
fishing vessels was that the Washington
treaty would be abrogated.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 29.
The fishery hearing before the House for
eign affairs committee was concluded
this morning Judge Woodbury. finished his
interesting argument and was followed by
Mr.. BabsOn, who, by maps and diagrams, il
lustrated some of the hazards which Ameri-
can fishermen have to encounter and the
habits of fish. Mr.. Clifford made a state
ment which gave a financial exhibit of the
fishery business

THE SIGNAL SERVICE.
Alleged Extensive Misappropriation
of the Public Funds.

New YORK, Jan. 2S.-A washington
special to the World says: The Second
Comptroller eff the Treasury, l. H. Maynard,
reviewing the accounts of the Signal Service.
A special expert employed in the office has
given nearly six months time to examining
the accounts of this branch of the War De-
partment. He has gone over the records
since 1880 and has examined accounts aggre-
eating over $30,00O,000 The investigation
has shown greater series of violations of
law and misapplication Of appropriations
than have ever been discovered in the his
tory of any one government bureau. Gen.
Hazen is charged with having approved of
the most fragrant violations of existing
statutes. There are twenty counts in the
indictment which Mr.. Maynard has found
against the management of the Signal Ser
vice Bureau.

Lord Salisbury Wants Lord Hartlng-

CoNsTANTINoPLE, Jan. 28.--The Turkish
minister. of marines has issued an urgent or.
der Tor the concentration OF the entire fleet
at Gambia In Crete. Here it is understood
that the fleet will be divided. The iron clads
Mesondize and Hamidish, now cruising in
search of the Greek fleet, with the frigates
Osmanieh Avni Illah and the Muin-i-ZaffeT
will cooperate with the English fleet before
Athens.
The remainder of the fleet, consisting of
twelve second and third-class steel cruisers
and turret ironclads, will patrol Crete and
engage the Greek vessels if they venture
within .gunshot of the coast As Crete is
most likely the objective point of the Greek
fleet, Admiral Hobart Pasha will take per
S0nal charge, the four first mentioned vessels
being under the immediate charge of the
English admiral
The Russian ambassador has informed the
Sultan that if the Russian feet in the Black
sea is permitted to pass the Dardanelles for
this occasion the Gar will be glad to have
them cooperate with the English, German
and italian vessels in the naval demonstra-
tion on the Greek coast. This will scarcely
be permitted, however, as it is considered a
dangerous precedent.
ATHENS, Jan. 28.-The Porte threatens
the immediate invasion of Th5ssaly. It is
rumored that the British fleet has arrived at
Crete. The fall of the Salisbury government
in England has raised the hopes of the Greek
people,
a COnSJantln0ple deSpaCcn says: oU,0OU
Martini rifles from America have been for
warded to the front.
The Greek government recently bought the
steamer Hammonia for conversion into a
man of-war. Germany objected to the pur-
chase, which was consequently annulled.
An order from the Greek government for
1900 horses has been received in Trieste.
A rumor has reached here that conflict
has taken place between body of Grecian
and Turkish troops near Glassoya on the
Epirus frontier 1t causes the greatest ex-
element, for it is said the Greeks have been
repulsed.
