THE LONDON FoGs.
Dryenfurth Has a Scheme to Dispel
Them.

DETROIT, Dec. 3o.-General R. G. Dry
enfurth, the rain-maker, has a scheme
to dispel the famous London fog. He
has been in correspondent with the lead
ing officials of that city and a fund of
$4,000 will be raised with which to con-
duet experiments. Hundreds of thous-
ands of dollars day would be saved in
the metropolis alone if the fog could be
done away with. The Dryenfurth fog
scheme is only variation of his rain
making one. 1t includes the use of hy-
drogen gas and explosive balloons. His
plan is TO establish fog stations below
the city and begin his campaign against
1t as the fog rolls in from the sea. His
bombardment of the skies would pre-
duce rain, he says, and when the preci-
pitation was started the fog would be
dispelled.

MCKINLEY IS PLEASED
NEW YORK, Dec. 2S.-A special from Go.
lumbus, o., says:
Governor Mckinley seems to be satisfied
with the emergency measure passed by
congress. The governor did not talk at
length upon the subject. but expressed his
views in this manner:
II think the measure the best which
could have been devised as distinctly
emergency measure. The measure will be
in force only year and a half, and when
the Republicans come into power they can
pass protective tariff bill"
PALMER HAS DOUBTS.
CHICAGO, Dec. 2S.-A Washington spe-
cial to the Journal-Press quotes Senator
Palmer as saying, anent the house revenue
and bond bills:
"Neither bill will become law. The free
silver men will try to tack free coinage
majority in the senate and may sue
ceed. The friends of the revenue
bill are going to try, however.
to induce them to refrain from amending
the revenue bill and be satisfied with
amending the bond bill. As the president
would undoubtedly veto the revenue bill
and the house would not pass the free COIN
age bill, there is no hope of either becom-
ing law"
"Then what will happen?"
'Well, if congress won't help him the
president will bs obliged to maintain the
credit of the country alone"
