the effect that u division had been taken by the

proved that there was no truth in the rumOr.
After the manifesto Of the Catholic hierarchy
OF Ireland had been read to the conference, as
stated III the dispatches to The STAR, Mr.
Clancy offered his amendment, which provided
that In view OF the difference of opinion
between Mr. Gladstone and Mr.. Parnell as TO
the accuracy OF the latter's recollection Of the
suggestions maGe to him by MIR. Gladstone at
I'M, the Hawarden meeting year ago, the party
whips be instructed TO obtain from Mr.. Glad
stone, Mr.. Morley and Sir William Vernon Har-
court, before any further consideration of the
main question, information ON the departure
from the bill Of 1886, made by Mr.. Gladstone in
his suggestions affecting the control of the Irish
constabulary and the settlement OF the land
question. A prolonged debate took place on
the amendment.
Mr.. Parnen asked tho meeting for an in
formal show OF hands on the amendment. This
disclosed the fact that only Msssrs Barry and

earth forty nine tinses as large as the moon,
it is plain that the moons shadow can form
but mere point, comparatively, on the sur
face of the earth. Sometimes, indeed, the
full'shadow fails to reach the earth at all,
and then, even in the center of the track of
the eclipse, rim of the sun is seen shining
around the dark body Of the moon. And,
finally, as both earth and moon are in rapid
motion, it follows that the black central line
of an eclipse-the narrow spot Of complete
darkness-will run rapidly along the face of
the earth in parsbolic curve.
a full history of echpses would be, ifefect,
a history of astronomy; but it is only within
fifty years that they have been studied with
great advantages When we consider the
lack of facilities suffered by ancient astrono-
iners, and tee fanaticai prejudice against
them IN many countries, 1t Is amazing that
they should have discovered so much and ar
rived ct so many just conclusions. Three
great inventions have made the modern
astronomer master Of the situation; the tele
scope was long the only one, then came the
simple but marvellous spectroscope, which
tells the substances blazing in distant light,
and tbs instan taneous photograph completed

now know the exact materials IN distant
worlds, k1low what determines the red hoe Of
Mercury and the white zones OF Mars, the

Of Betelgeuse.
The Egyptian eclipse Of 1882 was observed
with minuteness by many astronomers, but
rather raised than settled questions about the
corona. and as late as 1855 Professor Charles

THE FIERY ORB DARKENED
WONDERFUL PHENOMENA OF THE
RECENT ECLIPSE OF THE SUN.

The United States Expedition Took Their
Views at Station on the West Coast of
Africa-Great Increase In Our Knowl-
edge of the Sun-The Corona.
Science has once more taken views Of sun
and moon at their conjunction, photograph
ing total eclipse and obtaining many fine
views of the much discussed corona. The
eclipse began as sunrise of Dec. % just south
of Hayti, described a long curve eastward
and southwark TO the island OF st. Helena,
and thence northward again TO its termlna-
ton at Ras Awath, in eastern Africa OF
course the partial observation extended much
farther, and the total little farther in the
ory, so to speak; but the above are the points
over which it swept from sunrise to sunset.
As the atmospheric refraction is greatest
in the morning and evening twhen one must
view the sun near the horizon and conse-
quently through the greatest extent Of air.
and least IN the middle OF the day, it follows
that the middle course OF the eclipse would
have been the best place for a view, only
that place happened TO be in the ocean. So
the United States expedition went TO st.
Paul de Loasda, the curious old Portuguese
town en- the west coast of Africa, about 10
dogs. south of the equator, and most fortu-
nately December is in that latitude the dri-
est month in the year-the month when
the wind blows pretty steadily from the
north after the long rainy season has ended.
Fortunately, one may say, for II the day
happens to be cloudy, all the costly prepare
ton goes for nothing and the undevout as
tronomer is indeed mad.

NATURE IN CONFUSION

Is terrific. Volcanic eruptions, cyclones,
earthquakes are awfully and tremendous
ly picturesque but scarcely desirable to
emulate in action and effect by the ad-

convulsion and agony in the abnormal por-

tives happily falling more and more into
disuse, and of which Hostetters Stomach
Bitters is the wholesome, pleasant and far
more effective succedaneum. They weak
ened the intestines-the Bitters invigor-
ates them. They left the bowels inactive,

because it enables not forces, them to act

ates their activity and regularity. The
liver is beneticially stimulated, as the kid
neys also are, by this medicine, which
easily conquers, also, malaria, nervous

THEFRlsCO,s APPEAL DECIDED.

CHICAGO. III. Jan. 25.-Chairman Walk
er. of the Interstate Commerce Railway
association, today decided the appeal of the
st. Louis & San Francisco road for per-
mission to make rates on grain from points
in Kansas to St. Louis based on through
rates TO Offset advantage to Kansas City
operators gained by present tariff arrange
ment on grain shipped from Kansas points
to Kansas City and thereafter reconsigned
to st. Louis and Chicago. The decision
while virtually admitting the discrimina-
alton in favor of Kansas City as against
St. Louis refuses the application.
Chairman Walker says the granting Of
the application would establish a lower
basis of through rates upon all lines from
the territory in question which would APP
ply by way of Kansas City as well as by
way OF the direct routes via St. Louis
Transit would be applied to the new rates
at Kansas City and the existing difficulty
would be Immediately reproduced.

ECLIPSE OF 1850.
Science has heretofore done wonders IN the
way of photographing the successive stages
of an eclipse, but all previous preparations
were eclpsed this time by tho splendid appa-
ratus furnished to the commission from the
United States which was headed by the emil
nent astronomer, Professor David P. Todd,
Of Amherst As mere index of its COM
pleteness, suffice it to say that one camera
room used was thirteen yards long, and that
the automatic machinery was set to take a
photograph for every second Of the ecipse's
duration.
All these be it noted, are chiefly to secure
data for study of the much discussed corona;
and Professor Todd hopes to bring back data
sufficient to employ the leisure of astrono-
mers for the four years to intervene before
another eclipse. Corona" may be briefly
defined as that delicate pink and silvery
light which shows around the dark body of
the moon when it totally ee2ipses the sun;
and on the correct analysis of that light and
discovery Of its nature depends the proper
solution Of almost every question about the
nature of the sun. It's now known to a Ger
tainty that the great central mass of the sun
consists of minerals the same as those ON our
earth, but IN a state of heat and fusion; that
around this is an envelope Of flame so vast
that cyclones in it create whirlpools $50, coo
miles wide 'tthe ''spots on the sum-, and that
after these whirlpools the fiery fluid some
times boils up in such spurts that hot
arms shoot out for near 10000 miles.
Around this in turn is the atmosphere, if it
may be so called, which creates the corona;
and, Of course it can only be observed and
studied when AL the denser portions are COW
cred and their unbearable light shut off.
Total cclipses of the sun occur on an aver
age about seventy times in a century; and so
well are the movements of the earth and
moon now known that astronomers can cal
culate to the second when the latter will get
exactly between the former and the mid
die of the sun. Not only can they say when
eclipse will be, but they can equally cal
culate backwards and tell when and where
the people of antiquity were thus disturbed;
and the dates Of many important events have
thus been fixed beyond question. But as the
sun is l ,253 900 times as large as the earth
its diameter being $4,000 miles-and the
