Mr.. Mitchell said, but differed in
some of his remedial suggestions.
Mr.. Hoar introduced a bill which
would go far, he thought. 70

1t proposes the appointment of two
additional judges and the division
of the court into two parts, each to
have three judges, of whom two are
to be a quorum, and provides that
seven judges shall constitute the
full bench, of which four are to be
a quorum. Mr.. Dolph submitted
a letter which he had received
last session from Chief Justice
Richardson stating that there
was no difficulty likely to be found
in disposing of the business of the
court as fast as the parties were
ready for trial. Mr.. Doiph agreed,
however, with Mr.. Mitchell that as
to Indian depreciation claims, of
which there was a very large num-
ber, they would be better tried Cat
least those under $10,000) in the
United States circuit and district
courts. Mr.. Mitchell said that
there were over 10000 cases
on file; that the court last year was
only able to dispose of 653; and if
it proceeded at the same rate it
would take 80 years to clear the
docket. On motion of Mr.. Allison
the whole subject was referred to
the judiciary committee. Mr.. Cock
rell, by unanimous consent, offered
a memorial from the executive com.

bodies of St. Louis favoring a com.
prehensive scheme for the improve.

Mr.. Springer was interviewed by
the United Press reporter to-day
upon publication to the effect that
'many Democratic Congressman,
especially those from agricultural
districts, repudiate Mr.. Springer's
leadership so far as the silver ques-
tion is concerned" After reading
it Mr.. Springer said: "All there is
to say is that l have not
assumed any leadership on
the silver question. All
that / did was to express an opin-
ion upon a state of facts which be-
lieved to exist and which Mr..
Bland conceded did exist, when l
spoke with him about it. l said in
New York, speaking upon the
issues for the campaign that no
bill for free coinage of silver could
become a law at this session of Con-
gress. | said this having in view
the composition Of the two
houses of Congress and
the attitude of the President to.
wards the subject. He will not
sign a bill providing for free coin

vote either in the House or lh,

RALEIGH, y. c., Jan. l3. Not
many days ago an article appeared
in your paper which, to my mind,
to say the leas: cast reflection
upon the entire police force and
myself in particular, hence / make
this appeal personally, that you
publish this denial of the facts as
stated in your paper. i refer to
the recent burning of the K. ID.
Robinson Publishing house ] was
stationed on the beat that night in
the district where this establishment
was located. Your paper stated
that Mr.. Robinson ran out,
turned on the fire alarm
telegraph and then went and
notified the police. This is a mis-
take. When the fire started, ii is
true Mr.. Robinson was the first
man to detect it. Why: From the
simple fact. that fire broke out on
the inside of the house and in an
upper story where it was almost
impossible for an outsider TO see.
Mr.. Robinson was asleep in the
house and very naturally the smoke
woke him. He ran out, cried out
s.fire," and Immediately ran to the
alarm box, which was very close at
hand, but before he could return to
the house / was tn ere and with the
help of a brother officer rendered
him all the assistance in our power.
Mr.. Robinson has never given any
alarm at the station house. | know
that policeman's lot is not hap
py one, but say "let justice rule
though the heavens fall.

managers of the fair announced that
these demands were larger than any
they had expected, as they had pr O.
posed to give only 5000 feet in each
of the above divisions. The secre-

WONDERFUL MACHINES.

They Turn Out Screws So Small That
| 100000 Are Required to Make "a Pound.
| Not the least marvellous of the many
! ingenious automatic machines of the pres
Pit day is one for turning out the small
icrews and parts of a watch. The Horo
| logical Review says of it, Some of the
screws are so small that the thread and
slot for the screw driver cannot be seen by
the naked eye. 1t takes about 200,00O of
these little screws, made by the automatic
machines, to make pound, and yet they
are perfect in shape. They are made thus:
The wire is fed in the machine automatic
ally through swiftly revolving spindle,
and is griped by Il chuck. Instantly a circu
lar cutter comes into place and turns down
the screw part, While the turning is being
done Il threading die is operating, and the
instant the cutter is through with it's part
the die turns around on the turned part
and screws on and off like flash cutting
the thread At once a steel arm is seen to
swing over, and just us the screw is being
cut off from the wire it is picked up by
steel fingers and carried over to spot
where saw is swiftly running.
1.-The slot is then cut and another motion
of the arm and fingers releases the screw
WHICH II CftIIlti W q SJlG6tIll Vi VII llluO a
sieve among thousands of screws just like
it. That part of the mechanism which
grips the screw is called arm and finger
and the term seems opposite because the
motions accurately resemble those of Il
human arm and hand. That arm has an
uncanny look as it works with ceaseless
regularity. The operation goes Oh con
stantly and tirelessly for ten hours per
day. and when night comes each machine
has made l0,000of the tiny screws. One mo
tion follows another SO quickly that II
novice is filled with wonder and amaze
ment. Oil is forced in tiny streams with
great pressure upon the cutting parts and
then runs off through a drip, to be again
pumped and forced to the machines"
