CHICAGO. Sept. 16.--After confer
ence with number of foreign commis-
sioners, the worlds fair directors have
called special meeting for next Mon
day night to discuss the feasibility OF
extending tho exposition until Jan. /,
1884 1t has been understood for some
time among tho managers of tho fair
that it would bs kept open later than
Oct. 30, the time fixed by congress, if
the attendance in tho latter months
seemed to justify such move. The
heavy gate receipts and sudden in
crease in the regular daily crowds gave
the directors encouragement enough
to justly serious consideration Of
the project. The director general was
consulted. and while he thought it i'm
possible TO make an extension for an
other year. he said it might pay to
postpone the end until Jan. l. A num-
Der OF the foreign commissioners took
the same view Of the matter when it
was presented to them. TLey said that
while large numbers Of exhibits had
been sold for delivery at the close Of

Terrible Floods In the Province of
Toledo, Spain.
MADRID, Sept. 16. The town of
Villa Canas, in the province of Toledo,
has been devastated by fl ,ods, and a
large number OF lives have been lost.
Heavy rains have fallen in the province
and the town, which is situated on
rather low ground, was inundated.
The people had no thought of danger,
though the many small streams in the
vicinity of the town were rapidly swell
ing and threatening to overflow their
banks. Most of the inhabitants had re-
tired, the waters from the hills, where
there had probably been a .cloudburst,
swept down on the doomed town, car
rylng away almost everything In its
path.
1t is positively known that 40 persons
were drowned, and it is believed that
the bodies of others are buried under
the ruins of their homes. 1t is thought
that the government will have to ex-
tend aid to the town. The people are
so stricken by the disaster that they
display no concern over the loss OF
their relatives or property. and assist

they recover from the blow,

Forest r'irea--Farmers Fleeing.

The WISCONSIN Cisy In Danger From
Forest iNires-Farmcrs Fleeing.
MARsHFIELD, Wis, Sept. 18. This
city Is in panic on account of forest
fires Many families in the surround
ing districts have been burned ont, and
children are reported missing, but no
loss Of life, has been definitely reported.
Thursday the forest fires assumed
such proportions that the whole city
was in danger. The Ere department
was out till late at night fighting fires
inside the limits. Farmers from the
surrounding country came in wagon
loads for refuge in the city. Many were
burned out completely. The surround
ing towns are laid waste, and smoke
fills the air. binding everyone. The
Wisconsin Central trains are abandoned
and north from here are running over
the Omaha road. Two trains ran to-
gether while transferring, and one en-
gine is now in the ditch
Brought Back Thirty Families.
Mcmillan telephoned for help and a
train went out and brought back 80
families, who were burned out. The
high wind made the fires hard TO con-
troll. Fines are still burning, but the
wind has gone down.
"A later dispatch states that there is
no truth in the report that people have
been burned to death In the surround
iny country. The only living thing
burned so far as known was a yoke of
oxen. which dropped in the road from
suffocation while on their way to this
city, drawing the household effects Of a
farmer who had been burned out.
At Powers station the homes OF
about l5 families were burned out, the
people barely escaping with their lives.
q Desperate Fight.
There were two great fires, one on the
south. and one on the north. At one
time the fire got within the city limits
but was met by an army of desperate
fire fighters. who formed a bucket
brigade and succeeded in saving the
clty. Reports of great loss Of property
In the surrounding country come in
hourly. The loss OF life 40 far as can
be learned at this writing. Is confined
to. the deaths of the two children of

PARIS, June 1O.-The scientific world of
Paris and London is greatly interested in
the dispute between the believers in the
value of hypnotic experiments for pur-
poses of therapeutics and psychology. and
those who stigmatize. the wonderful re-
suits which the former claim to have OBJ
tanned as the mere outcome of delusion or
fraud, or a commingling of the two.
The novel development OF the subject
on sharply defined lines of scientific
method owes itself to J. Braid, d surgeon
OF Manchester, England, who first pub
lished the results of his studies in 1910.
He invented the name 'sHypnotism' and
withdrew the domain of discussion and
experiment wholly from the cloud of
occultisn, which has more or less yelled
it since the days of Mesner. But it way
many years before his studies became
widely known and had their due weight.
He now shines prlnlatS inter p0res among
those who had shed most light on per-
picking problem. But, strange to say,
just as the modern French art school built
itself upon the work of the Englishman
Constable, SO it took the genius and enthu-
siasn of such investigators as Drs. Luys

one person produced terrifying halIucin-
atoms, in another it called forth an ex-
preston of calm delight. Singularly, in
the application of thyme, there was a
physiological effect also on the thynoid
glands OF the throat, the size of the neck
being increased from 80 to 80 centimeters
or somewhat more than an inch. Nor

evidently terrifying nature, in another
an intense drowsiness. The effect of
frankincense. presented to the left of the
neck, was an emotion OF terror; while
heliotrope held in the hand resulted in
preoccupation and inquietude, Some
water In tube, held near the left side of
hypnotic subjects head, caused a
series OF spasams resembling those usual

The doctor maintains that in each case
the patient was in total ignorance of the
contents OF the tube. That the effect is
actual, not simulated, is patent to anyone
