being the production of a wire suitable

properties of the wire are said to be
extremely high. and tests made upon
samples after they have been raised to

shown an insulation resistance of over

made that by using this wire for wind

IoCkED-oUr SUFFERERS.

Careful linvestigationby The Times among

cry that several OF these victims of either

meBt are suffering from want and illness,
either in their own persons OF in their
families.
Dismissed because they refused TO ac-
cept less than the miserable pittance which
they were paid, they have as yet been
unable TO secure other employment, and
their necessities are so extreme as to call
for the assistance of thuse who have the
disposition to contribute to SO worthy a
cause.

Union will act To the extent of its ability,
but this organization is itself laboriDg
against heavy odds in the opposition OF

ton to make it useless, and it cannot, there
fore. be expected to do everything that is
demanded for the oumfort of these IN
fortunate men and their families.
The boundIess sympathy that must be

for it is made known.

SENATOR GoRMAN,s PLIGHT.

For the first time since he thoroughly
fastened the picturesque grasp of bossism
upon Maryland politics Senator German
has sustained a decided reverse. Demo-
Gratis of influence who had worked sym
pathetically with him when he was no more
yrtuous than new, turned against him and
succeeded in carrying a sufficient number
of other Democrats with item to eject the
Republican ticket.
Such cata C. ysins have Invariably occurred
in the career of boss politicia Ms, and while
they show healthrul condition OF popular
thought, they have never been final. The
great reform captains In battles OF this
kind lose their vigilance in the very
midst OF their effusive rejoicing. while the
insidious boss and his licutenants do not
.let up for a moment.
Senator Quay is more nearly prototype
of German, or Go rman OF Quay. than can
be found elsewhere in all the ranks Of pro-
fessional politicians. Quay has repeatedly
suffered unqualified and disastrous defeat
in the great Republican State OF Pennsyl-
vania by combinations of independent Re-
publicans a nd Democrats. but on each occa-
sion he has maintained his nerve with
supreme confidence and philosophy, has
promptly followed his defeats with the most

KELLEY AND HIS MOTOR.

Statements come from Philadelphia
sources that the Keeley Motor Company Is
about to be reurganized and that the New
York millionaire, John Jacob Astor, is
to purchase the large interest in the ss'-
called invention now owned by the brilliant
Mrs Bloomfield Moore. II this be true the
company will be placed upon a more solid
basis than it has been for years, aud the
public may learn something more of the
nature of this astonishing alleged discovery
which has excited the deepest interest
among scientists for long years.
1t is impossible to believe that keeley
is a fraud to the extent uf playing upon
the interest and cupidity of scientists and
capitalists all these years for the mere
notoriety he has gained from the capital
put into his machine. There is reason to
believe that Mr.. Keeley has been experi-
menting with powerful force which he
himself has not been able to develop or
control to the extent OF making II thing
of utility. Skeptical investigators have
witnessed the performances of the motor
and have come away fav"rably impressed.
Cautious capitalists, and notably MTs.
Moore, have invested large sums in eX-
periments. Mr.. Eecley is yet to be proven
a fraud, deceiver and fakir.
Long years passed after the discovery
of the power Of steam before that force
was utilized. The tremendous possibili-
ties of electricity were undeveloped for a
long period after the practicability OF the
fluid was made manifest, and even at
this time it may be said that the utiliza-
ton of it is in its infantile days. The
sensible way TO treat the kceley experi-
mentation is to give it every encourage
ment. II is 10 be hoped the promised re-
organization will give a new impetus to
Keelcy's efforts, and that he will take
into his confidence scientists who may
follow up his work should ne be rendered
unable to continue.

ELECTION PHENONENA a.

The Democrats won several glorious vic
tories yesterday. They have to their credit
Mississippi, Tanlmany, and Amos Cum
mings. These acquisitions viii coGnter-
balance u great many reverses Of such in
signi flea ut character as the loss of New York
State. Maryland, New Jersey, and prob
abiy Kentucky. OF course, the Democrats
could expect nothing good to come out of
such States as Massachusetts, Pennsyl-
yansa, Ohio, and Iowa. and therefore they
don't count. But Democrats would be ut
terly inconsolable for the loss OF New Jer-
sey. Maryland, and Kentucky were it not
for Tammany and Mississippi and the only
Cummings.
There is little use in engaging in dia-
gram making. AL! sorts of solemn reasons
may be given about treachery of friends,
and indifferent or antagonistic adminis-
trations, factional quarrels, and so forth.
Oae German advocate says sarcastically
that 1.-The Baltimore Sun did it" in Mary
land The Sun might retort that it was the
support OF the German organ that did it.
Some say the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
Company influence defeated the Hurst
ticket, but If that influence had any bear
ing at all il would really be in favor OF
German, for what it opposes is usually
right.
The real kernel Of the nut that was
cracked yesterday is that tits an ''off year."
and therefore good time for factions OF
all shades and grades to fight out their
battles. Local and State issues prevailed.
Vice was as aggressive as usual, and vir-
tue thought it a good occasion to vaunt
its own purity and make a redistribution
of the local loaves and fishes.
No one need expect any great reform to
result from these remarkable upheavals.
Some old influences are set aside, but those
who watch the conduct of the victors will
undoubtedly discover that they are made
of clay. very similar in texture to the mud
of which the vanQuished are composed.
BY all odds the most direct contest between
what some call law and order and its op-
posiie was in New York city, and there the
reform fus;ouists were so heavily sat down
upon that even the genius of Roosevelt and
Parkhurst will hardly rise to the occasion
OF a satisfactory explanation.

Charles Haydensen, who has been en-
pl0yed as farm hand In the neighborflood

covered last week TO be q woman. 1t was
naturally surprise to the hundreds of peo-
pie who had worked with him SO long

One odd result Of the close Of the war be-
tween China and Japan is a war of rates be-
tween the steamship lines plying between
the Pacific ports of this country and the
Orient. There are three lines now COM
peting for the business. After the cessa-
ton OF hostilities several ships which were
chartered as transports were released and
began seeking freights.
Some time ago Montana passed law
declaring gambling Illegal, and the several
scores OF faro banks and other gambling
houses that had been running in the principal
towns since white men first moved into the
region shut up pshop. But the law was taken
to the supreme court Of the State on test
case, and a week go the court decided that
the new anti-gambling law is uncoDstitu-
tional, and that the old W, which licensed
gambling, is still in force. The afternoon
OF the day on VIII ich the decision was rem
dcred a score or more OF gambling houses
in Butte began business, and things were
running wideopen again by nightfau.
The chief of police of West Superior, WIS.,.
was fined $40 last week for slugging
rcformer who started TO st ow him his duty.
The reformer called ON the chief and wanted
him to go right away and witness some
gambling in progress down the street. The
chief replied that he couldn't go just then;
the reforDer beganmaking iDsinuations. a nd
the chief threw him out OF the city hall.
The reforner brought suit. and as the chief
didn't deny thrasting him, the fine resulted.
Perhaps it is with the intention OF attract
