NEW YORK, Nov. 13.-The Herald
this morning prints a special dispatch.
from Paris, in which Camille Flam-
marion, the great French astronomer,
has the following to say about Sundays
lunar event:
eff st. Martins summer continues, and
no new cyclone arrives, Sundays
total eclipse OF the moon will be OBJ
served on that day under exceptionally
favorable conditions for it takes place
at the precise hour in which tho moon
crosses the meridian. The middle Of
the eclipse will be observed at Paris at
twenty-nine minutes after midnight.
Perhaps with scrupnlous attentionit
will DO possible to distinguish about
twenty-nine minutes past eleven D. M.
the profile OF tho chain of the Qunar)
Cordilleras under the form of very
slight elevation-the shaded circular
rim of our planet.
In general what has been taken for
this profile of the Cordilleras or Andes
was very deep shade os certain lunar
plains.
Nevertheless, tho earth will be in
such position during the eclipse that
1t will not be possible to attempt en- OBJ
servation without the aid of weak
glass, which will roughly allow the en-
tire disk of the moon upon its field.
This will make it very interesting
at the exact moment of tho beginning
and the ending for the purposes of
computation.
The color Of the moon in eclipse will
probably be- a deep red. with some
shade. The tone OF the color will de-
pend upon the solar VS. passing through
the earth's atmosphere and their opera
ton upon the lunar disk. The red may
be variegated, light or dark and even
OF yellowish tinge. Sometimes tho
eclipse will be entirely invisible.
These eclipses occur at regular in
tervals-elghteen years and eleven
days. The eclipse of Sunday will be
the recurrence of that of November,
1879.
Probably there will be great num-
Der OF shooting stars traversing tho
heavens during the eclipse. They will
appear to emanate from tho constella-
ton of Leo. These shooting stars are,
as matter of fact, debris OF Tempel's
comet, which appeared in 1866. making
magnificent passage in clear sky"

ANOTHER BERLIN BANKER FAILS

Moss Confesses His Defalcation and Sur
lenders to the Police.
BERLIN, Nov. 49, Special Ger
man financial circles we're startled this
morning by the news that Banker Moss,
the head of the firm at Charlottenburg,
a suburb Of Berlin, had surrendered to
the police, confessing misrepresentation
of customers securities.
The amount stolen will DO large.
Through the aristocracy is not SO hard
hit as by tho Wolfe failure, it is sure
to attract the emperor's attention The
embezzlcment includes 10000 marks
which had been subscribed toward the
fund for church in memory of the late
Empress Augusta, grandmother of EN-
peror William. The 10000 marks
which were TO ba devoted to Prince
Frederick Charles Institute also disa o.
poarcd.
Moss also made away with $4,000
marks deposited in his bank by $50
artisans and small traders. These poor
persons can i'll afford the loss entailed
upon them through the Moss stealings,
and 1t Is feared much suffering among
them will result from the bankers
heartless action. He surrendered from
fear OF their wrath.

The Machine Shops to Begin Building
Eight Cars Per Day.
Orders have been received at the Roa-
noke Machine Works to push the work
now on hand with more speed, and to
increase the number of cars built each
day. The works are now putting up five
cars por day, but will increase at once
to eight, and probably ten, which is the
full capacity for ten hours q day. In
consequence of the above ordor tho
force of workmen will be materially in
creased and work will be much livlier
than it has been for more than n year.
All OF the departments arc decidedly
busy and the engine and passenger de-
partments are pushing their work right
along.
The restriction to five cars a day,
which has boon the order for the past
month, has been annullcd and tho in
