A FAMILY ROW
Now On by the Members OF the Ma
tioaal Commission.

Now On by the Members OF the Ma
tional Commission.
CHICAGO. July 5.-The national com.
mission resumed business this morning
by holding protracted secret session.
As Western man expressed it, ''Thers
was good big family row. and it is no
body's business but our own" Director
General Davis was summoned to appear
before the commission and explain
the modus operandi of conduct
ing his end of the position.
Commissioner Ramsey, of South
Dakota. said that nothing of public in
terest had been done in spite OF the long
session and behind closed doors. The
commissioners took a recess about z
O'Clock, and at 3 again assembled to
discuss the Sunday opening in public
session. The first thing done was to
reject the recommendation of Director
General Davis that the national COM
mittee on ceremonies be aboI-
ished. The commissioners adopted
a resolution declaring that the
rate of 70 cents an hour for wheel
chair and was eXorbitant, that 90 cents
should be the maximum rateWith the at
tendant and pro rata without an attend
ant. The whole matter was referred 10
the judiciary committee. The commits
miSSioners declared themselves opposed
10 the increase of prices at the fair
on special days, the resolution
passed being in favor of a uniform
scale of prices on all days. Commits.
sioner st. Clair protested against
the resolution Of Commissioners Humid
ley and TOusley against Sunday opeu-
ing. Messrs. Massey, Hudley, Bar
bour and Ramsey spoke in favor of the
resolutions. President Palmer took a
lively interest in the debate and
vacated the chair in favor of
Vice President Bullock, of Massa-
chussetts. President Palmer advo-
Gated immediate action on the
the part of the commission in regard to

CH0KED THE SEWERS.
Terrific Hail and Rain Storms
Pass Over Eastern Penn
sylvania.
Great Damage Done to Crops and
in Heading and Phila-
deIphia.

READING, Pa, July 5.-This city was
visited by hail storm this afternoon
which for destructiveness ecllpsed
all previous storms of its kind
since 1866. The storm originated
about three miles west of Reading,
and covered a width of about four
miles. Shortly before o'clock a
black cloud appeared in the western
horizon aud moved eastward rapidly.
Twenty minutes later the streets of the
city were covered with hail and water
and the sewers becamed choked, being
entirely too small to carry off even one
tenth of the water. Grain, corn,
oats, flower gardens, grapes and
other fruits were stripped off
like leaves. The vineyards on
Mount Penn are completely ruined
and the owners do not expect to obtain
more than per cent of the crop. Many
there is nothing left but the vine.
South of Reading. especially along
the SchuylkIll valley, the destruc-
ton to crops was very great. The
wheat, rye and oat crops not yet cut
have been leveled to the ground, and
many of the fields were flooded. At
BirdsbOrO hail fell to the depth of
three inches, and in some places was
piled up to a depth of nearly a
foot. The stones were the size of
hickory nuts, and fell so rapidly
that pedestrians III this city
were driven from the sidewalks. Street
car horses became unmanageable from
the pe1ting hail. At Rogers Ford trains
were delayed twenty minutes by the
tracks being flooded. The storm is de-
Scribed as terrific and he hail pelting
the roofs of the cars caused panic
among the passengers The storm was
accompanied by thunder and lightning.
1t is believed that the damage in the
Schuyillill valley will reach many
thousands of dollars.
PHILADELPHIA, July 5.-PrObably
the severeSt hail storm that has visited
this section in years passed over the
northern part of Phllade lphia between
6 and Z this evening. The rain was
very heavy. flooding streets and cellars.
Hail stones nearly all inch in
diameter fell for fifteen minutes,
breaking thousands of panes
Of window glass and cutting trees and
shrubbery to pieces. A gale blew
during the prevalence of the storm. and
much damage was done TO trees and in
secure buildings and fences. Reports
from points in the eastern portion of the
state indicate that the storm was very
heavy and did much damage.

A NEW ERA NEAR BY.

In the last seventy-fve years the af-
fairs of the world have been revolution
lied by invention, and yet invention
does not seem to have more than begun
its work. The stage coach gave way to
the steam railway; the sailing vessel TO
the steamship; telegraphy curtailed
letter writing. The world thought that
there was nothing more to come, and
for many years there was nothing done
except to perfect the operations of
steam and electricity in harness. Then,
less than twenty years ago, came the
telephone. This was hardly perfected
when new use for electricity was
found-that of mechanical power. The
inventions of the past fifteen years are
more wonderful than all prior to the
time. We have the photograph, from
which we can hear the speeches of dis
tinguished men as perfectly as though
listening to the original delivery, and
we have many other things even more
marvellous than this.
A few years ago aluminium was dis
covered. The discoveries found it to be
so very light and tough, and to be so very
abundant all over the earth's surface,
that if 1t could be procured at small ex-
pense it would be among the most use
full of metals. But they were unable to
procure 1t at less expense than 81 an
ounce, and at this cost it was of little
value. Just as the world was prepared
to abandon hope Of ever being able to
make use of the metal, some one dis
covered process of separating it from
the clay by electricity at a cost of 60
cents an ounce. An ounce of aluminium
is so much more bulky than an ounce OF
iron that at 90 cents it can compete with
the heavier metal In many things. But
the time will soon come when the
lighter metal can be had fully as cheap
as IRON. and then ships and houses will
be built of il.
On account of its weight and other
qualities iron will. however, always be
i'll demand for many uses. THOMAS
EDISON is engaged in perfecting an in
ventIOn for separating iron from the
ore at many times less cost than
the present processes. Mr.. EDISON
is so confident of the success of his
invention that. as reported by Nc
CiuAO ilC dSSCIlS THAI IL VIII
monopoIize the markets of the world for
magnetic ore.
When aluminium, metal that does
not rust, can be produced as cheaply by
weight as iron, and iron can be produced
at one-fifth the present cost. the rail-
| road, manufacturing and commercial
world will enter upon a new era. Then
there is another era just as important
as that which we are entering; this is
of electric heat. Already houses are
heating and food is cooking by cleo
| tricity. AS the tallow candle, oil lamp
and gaslight have made way for the
electric light, so will the cooking and
heating stove make way for electric
cooking utensils and heaters. The fuel
| problem Is solved. The draft upon our
forests and coal mines will soon be re-
duced to SO small an amount that we
shall have no further worry over the
destruction of our woodlands and over
coal combines. In the cities the dwell
ings. hotels and business houses will be
furnished all their heat and light from
central electrical plants. and fuel will he
used only at these places.

HENDERsoN's ARRANGEMENT.

The st. Louis Republic contains in
aXtenso ex-senator JOHN B. HENDER-
SONS letter to Secretary CARLISLE, an
abridgment of which we gave recently.
He goes into an extensive elaboration of
the grounds on which he based his pro-
posed ten remedies for the financial
tangle in which Republican laundering
has at last plunged the country. He
traces the different legislative steps by
which we have reached this condition,
beginning with the FORT bill of 1878
stopping the further retirement of the
greenback, and the BLAND-ALLIsoN
bill of that year compelling the pur-
chase of silver bullion and its coinage
into standard dollars, and the issue of
silver certificates made legal tender.
The inevitable effect of this was to
make business men apprehensive of
the final supremacy of deprecated
currency, and the banks decided to ac-
cept no silver certificates in payment of
clearing house balances. Then fol
lowed the act forbidding any national
bank to belong to clearing house
which refused silver certificates. EX
piring charters were renewed con-
ditioned on the acceptance of these GER
tificates. Then, to get the silver dol
lars out OF the vaults, ever increasing III
number, the treasury paid the express
charges on them to any part of the
country. Less THAI S60,00O,000 were
TINS dragooned into service. Then fol-
lowed the reduction in the deDomina-
tons of the certificates, issues of ones,
twos and fives being authorized and
their exchange for the large denomlna-
tons allowed. With this, partly due to
it, partly to severe restrictions, the
national bank circulation shrank from
1885, 00C, 900 to s172,000,00O. "Uhus." he
says. 1.-The government sowed the wind !;
and now, by just law of retribusion,
it is reaping the whirlwind."
This experiment in unsound finance
has been an expensive and disastrous
one. Under the act of 1878 there were
bought 291, 292, 019 ounces OF silver at a
cost of 1898, 1879, out of which were
coined s37S. 1916, 1913. On these purchases,
| the Bland. and SHERMAN acts, there
has been incurred loss to the govern
ment by the depreciation of the silver
since its purchase, taking IS cents an
ounce as the value, of over 1925, 100000.
And yet this is the record of financial
laundering to which there are yet left
Republicans who can "point with
pride" In the face OF it we yet hear
them boast of the magnificent none
tary policy of their party. 1t was of
tie doubling of the dose in the SHER-
MAN bill that our own DAVIS could say
land what followed Immediately on the
passage of that bill? Prices rose
throughout the country on cereals, corn
and barley. That u'nrk was doua Fr-

The ''Floating Bethel" as the burned
lodging house was called, was large
barge, 120x40, two stories high, and
furnished cheap meals and lodg-
ings to those who applied. 1t was
conducted by Rev. David Morgan, who
acted as superintendent. and, in addi-
ton to cheap meals and lodgings, treated
those of the inmates who desired to
prayer and gospel meetings, which were
held nightly. There were rooms to rent
from 10 to 80 cents per night, and meals
cost from q to Il cents additional
The barge was built two years ago by
the st. Paul Bethel association for the
purpose of furnishing a cheap home TO
those who had little money. The asso-
citation is now Differed by r. A
Kirk as president, and ]. J. Jellet
as secretary. The loss is es-
timated at $4,000 with no insurance.
There IS no doubt but the structure was
a firetrap, and had the fire occurred an
hour later every one of the occupants
would have been cremated. The free
bath plant conducted under the auspices
of the same association recently opened
was not damaged by the fire.

Something About the New Consul
to Christiana, Norway.
Special to the Globe
WASHINGTON, July So. Ct. Boye-
sen, the young Grand Forks lawyer
who has just been appointed consul to
Christiana, comes of a distinguished
family. He is cousin of Prof. Il. H.
Boyesen, of Columbia college, and A.
E. Boyesen. the rising young st. Paul
attorney. He is native of Christiana,
and goes back to the place of his birth
as the first American citizen of Nor
wegian birth to be sent to that country
as the representative of the United
States. This is great honor for the
poor boy who left Christlana sixteen
years ago. and is the more highly ap-
preciated because of the fact that the
parents and brothers and sisters of the
new consul still reside in Christiaua.
Mr.. BOyesen is and always has been
an enthusiastic working Democrat, and
like Prof. Rogue. of DEBORAH, To-, and
DR.. Anderson. of La Crosse. has earned
the honor that has been bestowed upon
him.

Expenses Cue Down

CHICAGO, July 5.-The council of adj
ministration was in session most of the
day trying to fix minimum of daily ex-
penditure. Leaving out the bureau of
music, the council figured that the ex
position could not be run short of
$4,000 day. and the Columbian guards
must be kept down to 1,50O. This was
the decision of the council. 1t is i'm
possible to reduce the daily operating
expenses of the fair to $4,000, in
spite of the hard work in that direction
by the council.
