SOME CURIOUS DREAMS.
The Work of the Society Of Psychical Re-
search.

New HAVEN, Feb. 27.-Harlow Gale,
'S5. postgraduate stadcnt at Yale, Is
the local agent Of the American, Society
for PSychical Research, and has for
more than a wear been making mye>tl-
cations among the students OF com
cideuces between real events and dreams,
or hallucinaIionS. This society was
formed N. 1887, with headquarters
in Boston. The members believe that the'
coincidence of dreams and incidents
are caused by the transferenee OF IN
Ltercharge of mind between the person
affected by theincident-andth dthetirea7nes'
and they are attempting to tbeorlzc on
the connecting link. The psychologists
hope to effect complete demonstration
bv comparing the phenomena connected
with dreams with the phenomenon OF
mesmerism, and 1t is in fhat-llue that;
the researches are now being made.
Last wear Mr.. Gale received about
]. .000 answers. ThirteeR percent OF tue
persons iuterviewed had dreams or. hal
lucinatiors of remarkable Tlyldness, and
of these six had conceded with actual
occurrences. Mr. G;tie says that this Is
a very good average. Most OF the cases
were of painful incidents, which goes to
substantiate the idea that trouble is the
strongest bond between kindred minds
Mr.. Gale gives as an Illustration theease
of an academic student who has a brother
in a government position Oh an lsfllFi
off the coast of China. The student
vividly dreamed that his brother
was attacked by.:the natives. Shortly
Fafterward be received azcablegram that
his brother had taken part1in suppress
ING native insurrection and was, Sc
verely wounded The details received
later stowed1hat the facts We're just as
the student had dreamed. A theologl-
cal student testified that he had been
greatly Impressed by i dream that
friend had fallen and shot himself while
out hunting, and the next morning he
received a dispatch that the person OF
whom he esdreamed had been killed III
exactly those circumstances.
Another case which is noted by Mr.,
Gale concerns murder in The Eastern part
of Connecticut. A ifusband-ana-wife IN
manufacturing town suddcaly disap-
xpeared, and nothing vas known of their
whereabouts. Aftera time the wife $
m@her arrived at the village. She had
not known!of her daughters disappear
ance. but had dreamed that the
Young woman had been drowned By her
husband and buried in seclued part OF
the woods. She prevailed on the vii
lage officers to accompany her to the
SPOT and thefesthe buried body was
found. The time Of sthes dream coin
cided with the time of the disappearance.
and though the husband could NOT be
convicted on such evidence, public Sentl-
mens found him guilty. Other cases IN
vestigated by Mr.. Gale are given by
prominent New Haven people, whose
testimony will be undoubted, and they
will be OF value to the society.

CNICAGO, Nov. II, Vt y njoa' ing e,
the committee on congressional ap,ian
held yesterday, the bill submitted by
Congressman Payson Was iDGorsod A.
the one TO be presented at the coming
session OF congress to secure the location
of the worlds fair at Chicago. The ri.h
Of the bill is "A bill relative to csle
brating the 4O0th anniversary OF the dis
coyery Of America by Columbus by hold
ing an exposition OF arts, industries, man
ufacturers and products Of the world in
the city OF Chicago and atete of Illinois
in the year 1852"
The bill reCltes reasons for h0ldiug such
an exposition in Chicago, and puts par
ticular emphasis on the fact that Chicago
asks of the United States government no
such exposition. 1t provides that all larti
cles and goods imported for exhibition
shall be admitted free oil duty, and the
only appropriation asked for is that the
$4,000 which is to be. expended under
direction OF the secretary Of the treasury
for all purposes connected with the ad-
mission Of foreign goods to the exposition.
The bill also provides that there shall be
admitted to said exhibition by the govern
ment from its executive department, from
the Smithsonian institute and National
such articles as illustrate the
function and administration Of the gov
ernment in time OF peace, and its resources
as well as power, tending to demonstrate
the nature OF our institutions and their
to the wants of our people.

Shooting ut Pedro.

NJ. C. Benton, Wm. Watt, II. S. Ar
mold and Lewis Mcdonald arrived in the
city from San Pedro thls morning. Mr..
Watt carries his arm in a sling, the re-
suit of shooting scrape which took
place there Saturday. 1t seems that Watt
had some difficulty with cOorei woman
who rents q house from him, and
he was arrested by deputy
sheriff named Jack Myers, and
afterward released by Squire Barton
on his own recognizance. Myers and
Watt had previously had misunder-
standing and Myers took advantage Of
the opportunity to get even. lie struck
at Watt with his six shooter and when
the latter threw up his hand to ward off
the blow a bullet from Myers weapon
went through his wrist. Myers was ar
rested and afterward released, but no
bond was exacted OF him. The visitors
are conferring with the district attorney
over the case.

TOMBSTONE, Nov. l3.--Dan Hughes, OF
this city, while mp in the Milestone
mountains few days ago, came upon
deserted Indian camp near the scene Of
the recent killing OF two soldiers by

were signs Of four Indians. Hughes went
down the canon and found that the
trenchman, who was robbed by Mexicans
last year, had suffered again, the Indians
having broken into his cabin and helped
themselves to all the provisions in The
house. Their trail led south, and they

to large increase in the number of dis

FREE COINAGE.

AS to the prospect OF passing bill for
the free coinage OF silver, the supporters
Of the scheme do not appear to entertain
a very thorough confidence; but they will
fight hard for it. Another measure in
behalf of which the west IS greatly inter
ested-namely, irrigation OF arid lands
will certainly not be carried further at the
coming session than the authorization OF
more surveys in those regions Of drought,
though half Il dozen bills proposing to
build reservoirs and canals with govern
ment money, or TO grant tracts for irriga-
ton to private parties on certain condi
tions, will undoubtedly be offered. I'm
fortunately-and there is no use in dis
guisng the truth-there is a largely de-
veloped opposition in what will be
the 5lst congress to appropriating
money for the creation of works for irri
eating the dry belt; at any rate until
Major Powell and the geological survey
have finished their examination of the
territory and decided just what il is pos
sibe to do, how it may be best accom-
plished and what the cost will be. When
the information is all in, many congress
men say, it will be time enough to con-
slider what the government will do to
make these desert wastes bloom. Mean
while it will provide literally for surveys.

INTERNATIONAL COPYRIGH'

INTERNATIONAL CoPYRIGHT.
Two other important measures that will
be considered by the coming congress are
q new bankruptcy law and an internation-
al copyright law. As to the chances that
the former will be passed opinions differ,
widely, and at this stage of the game it is
useless to venture prediction. There is
q very general sentiment in favor of O
new bankruptcy law. AS thing are now,
business men consider that too much
money is made by the referee and too lit
tie distributed among the creditors of q
bankrupt. The notion suggested is that
the whole number of referees in each state
shall not be permitted to exceed the num-
Der of congressman to which the said
state is entitled that these referees shall
be appointed by the United States circuit
courts, and that they shall be paid $40
for each case. Trustees are to be ap-
pointed by the creditors, and to be obliged,
where it is possible, to settle each estate
within six months, their pay to be a per-
centage On the amount paid out by them.
International copyright will probably be
passed, though there is strong opposi.
ton to it, headed by the cheap book pub
fishers. ...-
A bill proposing to put the ts,z, ~ of
congressional elections in the hands of
the federal government will be advocated
by the Republicans and bitterly opposed
by the Democrats. Inasmuch as the Re-
publicans have majority it would seem
likely to pass but it is far from sure. As
to pensions, the tendency of legislation
will be more liberal than ever. Efforts will
be made, however, to pass measure for
preventing Young girls from marrying old
pensioners for the sake of securing a re-
versionary income.
Such are the important subjects, at all
events, to be considered hy the 5lst con-
gress

TIE TARIFF QUESTION.

Legislation once begun, the most I'M
portant question of the session will be the
tariff, and the general impression seems
to be that the Republicans will offer in
the house and pass n measure in this re-
gard on the lines Cf the senate bill re-
jectcd by the house in the last congress
1t will back up the Republican platform
OF the recent presidential campaign, max
ing important reductions in internal rev.
enne taxes. Some think that it will not
only take the duty off sugar, tobacco and
alcohol used in the arts, but will go 50
far as to increase the import tariff on
woolens, finer cottons and hardware.
Conservative opinion is inclined to a
milder notion, however, and the prophecy
is even made that nothing more sweeping
than a special law making tobacco free is
likely to get through. There is no doubt
whatever that the tax on tobacco will be
removed. Members from the tobacco
growing states are all in favor OF it, and
they will initiate the movement to ac-
it. Any tariff bill that passes
the house will, of cou'e, become law,
the senate being Republican.
