ROENTiEN RAYS
Still Show New Possibilities In the Hands Of
Scientists

Still Show New Possibilities In the Hands Of
Scientists
CAMBRIDGE, Mass, Feb. 27.-F. l..
Woodward of the Lawrence Scientific
school at Hartford has devised new ray
lamp. by means of which excellent catholic
photographs have been obtained. The lamp
has walls of sheet aluminium one-tenth of
an inch in thickness. The rays pass
through the aluminium readily, and with
this lamp Mr.. Woodward has obtained very
clearly-defined shadowgraphs of the hand
in five seconds by an induced current of
only between % 900 and 80, 900 volts;
The base of the lamp is of solid glass;
fitted into a base of aluminium with plaster
of paris, and made air tight. A metallic
ring passes around the base of the cone
and holds the sides firmly to the glass bot
tom. Through a point little at one SIDE
of the central glass passes ths cathode pole
into the lamp and platinum pad m d'se
at such an angle as to be
parallel to the lamp. At the top Of the
lamp and directly connected with the me-
tallic side is the anOde pole, and at the top
of the cone is glass tube, with which the
air may be exhausted. The glass tube is
bound by metallic ring. circular
wooden disc is fastened inside the metallic
cone, to prevent any collapse of the sides
as the air is exhausted.
The new ray lamp has an interest aside
from its construction, from the fact that
experiments conducted with it appear to
disprove the theory that glass vacuum
envelope plays an important part in the
generation Of the Roentgen rays. This
theory was advanced by Roentgen himself.
The results already obtained from Mr..
Woodward's lamp make it seem probable
that, with high current, say of $4,000
volts, an instantaneous photograph may be
taken.

ENGLISH POLITICS

The Home Rule Question Again Takes the
Most Noise
LONDON, Feb. 27.-Timothy Healy, in
addressing the Irish National Federation
at Ireland today, accused John Dillon of
getting himself elected to the chairmanship
of the party by intrigue and disregard of
the feelings of the country. His position,
however, Mr.. Healy continued, entitled
him to forbearance as long as he kept
within the broad lines of policy. Mr..
Healy would rather Ireland were governed
as crown colony, he said, than as it was
now governed.
.If, when the Liberals are returned to
power" he added, nothing is done for
home rule, the Irish members should pro-
woke our expulsion from parliament. After
a few years of governing Ireland without
representatives at Westminster, fear would
probably induce England to grant some
kind of national. council which would
eventually broaden into an Irish parlia-
ment."

er called at the cathedral and showed him
the dispatch.
The reverend father said that while he
felt honored by the appointment, still he
felt sorry, for he really hoped it would
fall to another. He had hoped to finish
his life's work in the harness as prie Ut
and had never desired an advancement. :
The other priests we're delighted with the
appointment and say the selection is the
very best that could have been made. The
appointm ent comes on the day of the first
anniversa ary of the death of Bishop
Manogue.

PEARL BRYAN'S CASE

Many Rumors Afloat-Lynching Of Prisoners
Is Not Likely
b CINCINNATI, Feb. 27.-The excitement
attending the proposed extradtion today
of Scott Jackson and Alonzo Walling to
Kentucky on the charge of numbering
Pearl Bryan, January 31st, gave rise to
various sensational rumors. The most
startling was that the head of the MUIR
dered girl had been found there at 3 p. IN.
today. 1t was carefully examined and the
skull and teeth were reported to bear a re-
semblance to those of Pearl Bryan. The
most reliable information tonight is that
the head is not that of the victim of the
Fort Thomas tragedy, but that some stu
dents from the medical college took the
head of a woman from the dissecting room
and worked ruse on the officers. There
are no crowds around the Jail tonight and
the crowds now seem satisfied the prison
ers will not be transported when there is
any assemblage in sight. The transfer
will be made after hearing on Saturday.
when none but the sheriffs and attending
officers know of it.
The prisoners will not be taken to New
port. KY, but to the strong Jail in Coving-
ton. Although William Wood, the third
prisoner, got out early today on bail, he is
still in the city watching developments.
He will not return to his home at Green
castle, where his life is threatened, but
will remain quietly with his uncle at West
Lebanon, Ind.
In anticipation of the arraignment today
of Scott jackson and Alonzo Walling for
the murder of Pearl Bryan, large crowds
gathered abovt the city hall and jail early
this morning. While the authorities con-
sidered the assemblage due to sensational
curiosity rather than any conspiracy for
lynching, yet they took the prscaution to
evade both crowds. At IL am. it was an
nounced that the arraignment had been
continued to a date that the court would
not divulge now or hereafter to any one.
1t is believed counsel have agreed to have
the case taken up any time when there is
no prospect of disturbance.

San Francisco Capitalists Shipping Money to

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 27.-People with
available cash in large sums have been
sending it out of the state as fast as possi-
BILE during the last few weeks. The annual
assessment for taxes occurs next Monday
and the less coin one has on hand the less
he will have to pay toward the support of
the state and city governments. This is
the sole explanation of the present rush of
money shipments to the east. At noon on
next Monday the bankers and other mon
eyed people will be able to swear that they
have but small sums of money on hand.
Several bankers admitted yesterday that
from 81 ,OOO, 900 to $1O.OOO,O00 had been
rushed out of San Francisco during the
past five or six weeks in order to escape
next Mondays assessment. Most of the
money has gone to New York. but the
bankers say it will be back in California in
