Claims Before Congress-.

Immediately after every change of ad-
ministration, claims which were disal,
lowed by the outgoing power pour in by
thousands, to be considered and rejected
again. Applicants imagine, evidently,
that what one party will not grant the
other may grant. Their persistence in
many cases is astonishing. One citizen,
who has not the shadow of right to
back him up, has written more than
1000 letters to the treasury respecting
his demand, and has expended more
money in postage than the value of the
claim. He has addressed his communi-
cations on the subject to every public
official in Washington, from the presi-
dent down, and even to the Chinese and
other foreign ministers. w Washington

relesr.phlng w,thou, wires.

The problem of telegraph without
wires" has often been broached, but, so
far as | know, even the theoretical reali
cation of this project has never been
seriously attempted until recently, when
Mr.. Edison gave forth his views regard
ing the matter. 1t would seem that Mr..
Edison has actually patented "means
for transmitting signals electrically
without the interposition of connecting
wires" What he has to say regarding
this subject is we'll worth our attention.
He begins with the announcement of
his discovery that, if sufficient eleva-
ton be obtained to overcome ene curva-
ture of the earth, and to reduce as far
as may be the earth's absorption, cleo
trio signaling may be carried on by in
duction without the use of wires con-
Meeting the distant points of signaling
stations.
For signaling across oceans, says Mr.
Edison. this method will be very service
able. inasmuch as it does away with
the use Of submarine cables: while for
communication between vessels at sea,
or between vessels at sea and points on
land. the invention would he equally
important. There is also 10 obstacle to
its employment between distant points
on land, but in the latter case it is nee.
essary to increase the degree of eleva-
ton or height from which the signaling
operations are conducted. because of the
induction absorbing effect of houses,
trees and hills.
Mr.. Edison states that at sea he can
communicate electrically to a great dis
lance from Il height Of 100 feet. This
height could he secured from the mast
of ship, SO that signals could be sent
from ship to ship, and communication
be established, in this way, even over
oceans themselves.-Dr. Andrew Will

NIacatilay as Il Host.

Macaulay was Il pattern host. On his
own account, 1t Is true, he was no cpl
cure, and his nephew tells US that at any
time he would have been amply salts
fed with dinner such rs is served at Il
decent seaside lodging house. This was
sad moral defect. but happily his con-
scientious views of the obligations of
hospitality prevented his guests from
suffering by it. He generally selected
by a half conscious preference dishes of
established character and traditional
fame. His Dissenting friends he treated
to tillet Of veal. which he maintained
to be the recognized Sunday dinner i'll
good old Nonconforlnist families" On
Michaelmas day he would have been
wretched had no goose smoked on the
board. AT Christmas he never forgot
the old historic turkey.
Ii he was entertaining a couple of
schoolboys who could construe the
fourth satire Of Juvenal, he would re-
ward them for their proficiency with a
dish OF mullet that might have passed
muster on the table of an augur or an
emperor's freedman. With regard to
the contents of his cellar, Macaulay
prided himself on being able to say with
Mr.. John Thorp, Mime is famous good
stuff, to be sure" and if he were taken
to task for his extravaganza he would
reply. in the words used by another of
his favorite characters in fiction. that
there was a great deal of good eating
and drinking in 600 a year, if people
knew how to manage it.-All the Year

what said In my letter to Fox about his

The letter referred to which brought about
the duel was written to Fox by Borrowe and
delivered By Milbank on last Sunday. II Is as
follows:
Sir: You have stated that you had my con-
sent and authority to publish tho corre-
spondence in tho affair between Mr.. Drayton
and myself. You lied when you stated this.
and your letters to me on the subject prove
that you acted without my knowledge con-
sent. or authority. You have further stated
that have been 'shclterlng my self behind
the broad shoulders OF Harry Milbank.' l
quote your own words. and again tell you
thut you lie. That Mr.. Milbank's good faith
should have continued after your despicablo
conduct had placed me In q false position must
be beyond your comprehension.
Il fully believe II would indeed be difficult
for you to understand that to be loyal to ones
friends Is privilege among gentlemen. not
an act OF self sacrifice
As second you are q lamentable failure,
Mr. Fox. Perhaps as principal you might be

courage OF his own opinions has not the cour-
age to combat the opinions OF others.

proven yourself a liar May I not hope that
man who has once called himself my friend
will still give me the only proof that can JUS
tify me in changing my opinion? l am. sir.
your obedient servant.
"HERBERr AIsoP BonnowE."
In response to this Mr.. Bacon called upon
Mr.. Mibank. and invited him to come to Bel
gium to discuss matters. with the result re-
lnted.
The last thing Fox did before he left the
Hotel dc fEurope this morning was to write
statement, in which he reiterates that he
was authorized by Borrowe to publish tho
duel correspondence in THE Sun. and says that
Col. Tom Ochiltree prevailed upon him to act
MS Borrowers second in the proposed duel with
Drayton.
The principals and seconds in to-day's duel
