JOHN BURNS At WASHINGTON.

Approves of the Government Print shop
and Comments ON Col. Rend's Attack.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 3i.-John Burns. the
English labor leader, lost no time I'm got
ting to work after his arrival ut Washing
ton. He was taken in charge by James
A. Power, organizer of the international
Typographical union, and with his COM
panion. j. Williams Bonn, NJ. p, began
an inspectian of the government printing
office Aftcrward he called upon Com
missioner of Labor Carroll ID. Wright, and
before he had been in the city three hours
had collected box full OF statistical works
to be shipped to England. Concerning
his observations Burns said: Il am en-
amored of the principle of the government
doing its own work"
When the attack If Colonel Rcnd at
Pittsburg was spoken of Burns said: Il

life. No American, think. will say tina.

My only critic i'm Pittsburg was ono
man who came to curse John Burns and

precincts, most striking confirmation OF
my criticism. One swallow docs no;

HOW BYRNES MADE HIS MONEY.
Operators in Stocks Who Dealt for Him
with Great Success.

Operators in Stocks Who Dealt for Him
with Great Success.
The above gives briefly but substantially
what Byrnes said as to the corruption in
the force. His explanation of how he
made his money was the most interesting
Of his testimony otherwise. Byrnes said
he had been connected with the force
for about thirty-two years, and gave list
Of the property he held, and which he had
accumulated by buying stocks. Said he:
1.-THE late Jay Gould was my friend, and
he acted as my broker. He made for me
t230, 600, and since his death his son George
has made So, 0OO''
He got his first money this way: "A
friend of Senator Palmer named Bur-
ridge, n very old man who lived in Ouch
ess county, left me 1000. bought prop
erty and sold it and made some money
Old Commodore Vanderbilt asked me on
one occasion if had any money, and
snid yes, had $1,000. Heasked me for it
and brought it to him. About six or
twelve months aftcrward Igot "a, 900 back,
as he had invested it very successfully for
me. This made me worth some 80, 900 in
1875"
The witness then told long story as to
Gould. 1t was through catching a man
who wrote threatening letters. Gould
offered him a present, but he refused.
Then Gould, he said, offered to buy stocks
for him and did not want to accept any
margin, but Byrnes insisted. He put up
e1O,OOO, with the result that the amount
was increased to &27O,OOO He said he
could not remember just whore he got the
$40, 600, but he had it all right, he declared.
He had made several attempts to sup.
press vice of all kinds, but was SO tied up
that his efforts were of no avail. He had
never had dollar in his life that was not
obtained honestly. The interference OF
Commissioner Martin with the captains
at the time of the 1892 election was then
referred to. .and,, Byrnes de.
scribed the meeting. He said that Martin
insisted on addressing the force, and told
them not to allow United States marshals
to interfere with them. Byrnes objected
to this, and instructed the men exactly
rs to their duties.
But Commissioner Martin swore that
he went there at your request" He swor,
to what was false"
"And that you asked him to address the
men," .'rhat Is also false. When I re
fused to let his instructions 60 to the cap

How the Papal Inhibition Will Ne p

How the Pspal InhsbitioU Will Ne Put
Into Practical Erect.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 3l.-Thc manner Of
executing the papal decree against mem
bership of Roman Catholics In the Knights
Of Pythias. Odd Fell ws and Sons OF
temperance is matter of considerable
interest Communion is not taken neccs-
sarily more than once year ia the
Roman church, though it is Gu. tomary
with most Roman Catholics to take the
communion, to which confession Is an alb
solute essential, at Easter. O;hcr means,
however, are at hand for speedily carrying
the papal order into practical effect.
There are published lists of the members
of the Knights of Pythias and other So
cicties, SO that Roman Catholic members
of them are readily asccrtainab,c. Should
these members remain away from con
fcssion beyond year they would thereby
cut themselves off from the church.
If they attended confession they would
voluntarily abandon their society conncc.
tions and receive absolution, or else be ex'
! amined on the subject, and refusing to
abandon their connections absolution
| would be withheld. This would also op.
crate to cut on the church member from
! communion and therefore from member
ship in the church. No formal excom
| munication would be required.

Kites as FLYING Machines.

AS Is Wei known, when one flies Il kite
with q cord holding the kite against the
wind, the wind passing Oh the under side OF
the XII" strikes it at an angle and raises il
into the air. If the wind be blowing at q
high yClocity-say 80 miles an hOur-thC
kite Will lift from one pound to five pounds
per square foot, according to the angle al
which it is held in the air. If the angle
be slight, the amount of strain on the cord
necessary to hold it against the wind will
be found considerably less than the weight
of the kite and the load which 1t is able tC
lift, particularly SO if the cord pulls in a
horizontal direction instead of at an an
gle. 1t is also we'll known that if a kite
be propelled in a calm through the air,
say at the rate of 80 miles an hour, the eff
feet is exactly the ame Suppose now, in
stead Of the cord for holding the kite
against the wind or for prOppIIing it
against still air, that a screw propeller
should be attached to the kite and that it
should be driven by some motor. If the
screw propeller could be made TO give a
push equal to the pull of the kite, and if
the machinery for driving it should be no
greater than the weight that the kite
would be able to carry, we would have a
veritable flying machinc.-NOrth Ameri-
