Professor Schaeberle Believes He Has
Proven His Theory.
NEW YORK, July 5.-Professor J.,
M. Schaeberle of the Lick observatory
arrived here on the Pacific mail steamer
City OF Para from trip which, iftaken
IN one direction, would extend half way
around the earth, for the sake of prov
ing theory which he had about the
cause of the corona of the sun rs it ap-
pears during total eclipse, and he had
the satisfaction of knowing that his for
mer beliefs had been substantiated.
Further than this, he had taken the
largest photographs which have ever
been taken of an eclipse of the sun and
had secured details of the formation of
the corona which are more full than
any which have hitherto been secured.
Professor Strawberries theory, he
went to South America to prove by the
eclipse of the sun April 16, was that the
beautiful corona, which appears every
time there is total eclipse of the sun,
was caused by the fact that the sun was
covered with immense volcanoes which
continually belch forth great masses of
molten material, which the sun drew
back to it with speed which could not
be realized.
he believes that he has settled the
question, and if so he has done a good
deal for science. This is the first time
that accurate or satisfactory Informal
ton has been printed about what Pro-
lessor Schaeberle rea' y accomplished.
