NO HELP TO THE BLIND.
NikoIa Tesla Says the N-Ray Cannot
Make Them See.

Make Them See.
New YORK, Dec. 2.-The Electrical
Review publishes an exhaustive COM
munication from Nikola Tesla regard
ing the X-ray. The inventor, in re-
ferring to the recently widely heralded
experiment for making the blind see by
means of the Roentgen rays. regret
fully remarks:
''Is 1t not cruel to raise such hopes
when there is so little ground for it {?
For, first of all, the rays are not dem
ontrated to be transverse vibrations. If
they were, we would have to find means
for refracting them to make possible
the projection of sufficiently small
imaOe upon the retina. AS it is, only a
sha wv of a very small object can be
projected. What possible good can re-
suit from the application of these rays
to such purposes? l cannot confirm
some of the experiments reported. For
instance, when a hand Is put before the
closed eyes it Is easy TO distinguish the
shadow, much the same as before the
light of a candle but, when the tube Is
inclosed, and all light from the same
excluded, / fail to get such an i'm
preston. The latter is, therefore
chiefly due to ordinary light

the Upper House.
BY the Southern Associated Pres

BY the Southern Associated Press.
Washington, Jan. 29.-The event of the
day in the Senate was the speech made by
Mr.. Tnlman, ostensibly in favor OF the
free coinage substitute for the House
bond bill but really in denunciation OF
the President and of the Secretary Of the
Treasury. Mr.. Tillman was on this occa-
sion a splendid combination of orator and
actor, giving TO the senators and specta-
tors two hours or entertainment. The
way in which he spoke of the President
might have exposed him to interruption
and censure, but seemed to be rather en-
joyed than found fault with. He descriD-
ed him as bull-headed and self-idOlatrous.
Never he said, had the office Of Presl-
dent been so prostituted and never had
the appointing power been so abused.
With relentless purpose he mad ignored his
oath Of office and given no heed to the
interests Of any but his moneyed friends
his owners or partners.
He spoke Of Secretary Carlisle as that
Judas from Kentucky who had in his old
age come to a pitiful pass" and referred
to the other two southern members OF
the cabinet Cthe Secretaries of the Navy
and Of the 1nteriOr) as "apostates from
sMr. PRESIDENT" the speaker began, "it
is not saying too much, and I feel war
ranted in charging that the derange-
ment in our finances and all this cry
about sound money and maintaining the
honor and credit Of the United States,
are all part and particle Of a damnable
scheme of robbery which had for its
object. first, the utter destruction of sill
yer as money metal; second, the in
crease of the debt by the issue Of bonds
payable in gold, and, third, the surrender
to corporations of the power to issue all
paper money and give them a monopoly
of the function"
In reference to the Sherman silver law
of 1890 Mr.. Tillman said: THE silver re-
publicaus of the west who had deserted
the silver democrats of the south and
accepted the compromise offered by SEN
ator Sherman, may take warning as to
