The experiment was successful.
Charles Willoughby Of this city is the
inventor Of this scheme. The inventor
believes his idea to be most valuable in

process is demonstrated he will estab-

originally upon paper ruled off

tenth of an inch in diameter.
Each vertical line is numbered along
the upper margin, and each horizontal
line is lettered down the slate. Every
square is therefore identified with q
number and letter and it's location is
where the two lines designated cross
each other. With the original drawing
before him the operator describes the
course of thu lines from point to point
and the message contains only as many
signs as combinations and directions in
the lines forming the picture.

WASHINGTON, April lS.-Offcials here
profess to have NO information as yet as
to the instructions sent to British war
vessels for the enforcement of the ulti-
matum against Nicaragua Those in
position to understand the status of

the British. intruotions are on the fol-

First-There shall be no exercise Of
force which will affect the commerce or
the interests of the United States or
her citizens. or of other foreign ooun-
tries.
Second-The exercise of force shall
be confined to the execution of a ''pas-
sive blockade of Nicaragua ports, &C.

The 'passive blockade" is designed
to cripple the international commerce
Of Nicaragua, and yet to leave all the
foreign commerce to proceed as usual.

keeping it thus paralyzed until salts

Evidence Against Durant of . Circumstan-

SAN FRANCISCO, April 18.-The
Emanuel church murders are still the
main topic of discussion in this city.
Notwithstanding the fact that one or
two newspapers have tried and con-
victed Theodore purant Of the fright
full crime there seems to be reaction
in favor Of the accused young man.
Evidence so far produced against him
before the coroner's jury is only cir
cumstantial, and, while the police say
they have enough evidence to convict
10 men, it is doubted if any jury will
find Durant guilty unless further con-
elusive proof is furnished. The young
medical student does not act like a
guilty man, and, if he did commit the
murders, he is certainly q man Of re-

The wonder is that nobody has ever
made it before-the attempt to reach
the north pole in balloon. Mr.. s, "a.
Andree, a Swedish civil engineer, will
try it next year, in the summer. With
headquarters and supplies at Spitzber-
gen, he will start northward in bal
loon 70. 6 feet in diameter. This, scien-
tito French balloonists say, will hold
gas enough to last 80 days without re-
filling. Mr.. Andree's living room will
be in car beneath the balloon. 1t will
be furnished with large Photographic
outfit, SO that as the voyagers sail over
the pole they can take pictures Of strik-{
ing scenes and objects. It is daylight
all the "a hours around at the pole in
July. The explorers will rise in the air
above Spitzbergen and take direct line
for the pole and across it to. Boring
sound on the Alaskan coast. The dis
lance is little less than 1900 miles
Andree expects to travel it in six days
The Car will be provided with sails,
with which it is hoped to steer the bal
loon. Two persons will accompany the
aeronaut. The nearest habitable point
to the pole thus far occupied is the is
land Of Spitzbergen, which is only 700
miles distant from it. Baron Norden-

between Governor Mosely and 200 in
surrectionists. Six people have been
killed and eight wounded, so the re-

prevails. The cause OF the trouble is
due to bad political blood, which has
long prevailed the Chickasaw seat of
government, and has existed since the
legislature ignored Willis Brown,
Charles Brown and Noah McGill, who
claimed to have been duly elected sher-

legislature did not have authority to re-

Tuesday morning Governor Mosely
Issued Orders to All Sherins,
constables and deputies throughout the
nation to report to him at once with
arms. When the officers gathered
around the house, 200 enraged men,
headed by McGill and the Brown
brothers, rushed from adjoining houses
and deadly riot followed. The names
Of the dead and wounded could not be

the great excitement which prevailed.

Minneapolis Journal; Advances have been
recorded In prices OF corn. wheat cotton,
coffee. leather petroleum. provisions, silver
and iron. Before silver advanced a point
the tendency of the other commodities to
advance was manifest Some OF the commo-
dities are scarcor and for others there is
more active demand by consumers who are
beginning to buy more than for immediate
use. Silyer's slight rise is speculative. grow
Ing out OF the supposed larger demand by
China for indemnity purposes. chiefly.
Minneapolis Tribune: without any In
crease In the volume OF money. without any
RECOMMENDATION" OF silver, prices are rising.
Cotton, one OF the staples. has advanced 2
cents a pound. or so per cent upon the low
est price reached; petroleum has more than
doubled in value; beef has jumped until
prices are almost "out of sight" potatoes
are so high as to make the consumers
squirm; wheat is up cents. and corn and
other cereals are advancing. Hides are l25
per cent higher than they were some time
ago, and leather has risen from 80 to 10
per cent. Silver itself without anything
being done for 1t by law, has advanced from
to 10 cents per ounce. What has caused
all these advances? Simply the operation Of
commercial causes.
Chicago Record: Although the silver ques-
ton threatens to be especially troublesome
to the democrats it must be kept in mind
that the republican party has a mire of diff
culties to wade through in the next session
of congress The new congress is in the
hands of the republicans. The friends OF sill
yer have manifested their intention already
to ask for silver legislation from that body.
There are plenty of republican free silver
men in both houses, and in case the ques-
tion is brought to an issue during the session
they are likely to make powerful showing,
If indeed they do not adopt silver legislation.
In case republican congress takes this
course it would not be an easy thing for the
party convention a year hence to overlook
the fact. Pending the action of the new
congress, the republican politicians need not
feel too much elated over the prospective
split in the democracy They are likely to
have troubles of their own.
