IT WAS A SURPRISE
The Dissolution Of the Bond Syndicate
Was Unexpected.
REASONS GIVEN FOR 1T
One Statement Morgan Makes In
His Circular Letter Is Criticised
Secretary Carlisle Says the
Loan VIII Be a Success.

Washington. Jan. 16.-The announce
ment that the bond syndicate had been
dissolved was received with surprise.
although among officials conversant
with the changed situation. no other
course has seemed open to Morgan and
his associates. The reason given for
the dissolution Is accepted as the true
one. since Morgan and his friends are
fully aware of the fact that the success
of the loan by poular subscription is
no longer a matter of doubt. To hold
banks to the terms of the contract, II
is argued. will prevent any of them
from participating in the loan except
in the capacity of a syndicate. which.
under the changed conditions. almost
certainly would result to their disad-
vantage. Morgan's purpose. therefore.
in releasing his associates. Il is be-
lieved. is to give them an equal chance
with other banks and financial institu-
tions to secure whatever part of the
loan they may desire.
The only criticism so far heard of
Morgan's public statement is that his
assertion that he was invited to
Washington for a conference" is mis-
leading, as the natural inference is that
or. by his sanction, from some member
of the cabinet This. 1t is said. is not
fact. When Morgan came to Wash
ington the president declined to see
him; nor. II is added, did he confer
with any member of the cabinet at the
presidents suggestion. 1t is stated on
high authority that the president and
Secretary Carlisle have received such
assurances from a large number of
bankers throughout the country that
there cannot be a doubt as to the loan
being a success
1t is argued that during the late
announcement of the governments at
titude on the Venezuelan question,
eastern bankers took advantage OF the
sharp decline in American securities,
and. as a result, their holdings are now
large and must be protected from a
further decline which would necessari-
ly follow the failure OF the loan or the
depletion of the reserve to a point so
unfavorable as to effect the market.
Under these circumstances, IL Is be-
lieved that such a large movement set
in before the loan is consummated. the
large banks and other financial insti-
tutions would neutralize the effect by
making deposits of gold. In any event
the officials here are not apprehesive
of any serious difficulty in maintain
ing the reserve at about it's present fig
ure. nor in placing the 500, 900 900 loan
at a fair price. both to the government
and to the purchaser.

HARMONY OF NIAGARA FALLS.
There Is Music and Rhythm i'm the
Roar of the Great Cataract.

Eugene Thayer, the well-known or
ganist, says the Trinity Record, has
published an analysis of the music of
Niagara Falls. He says:
1T has ever been my belief that Nj
agaTa had not been heard as it should
be. and in this belief I turned my
steps hitherward. What did I hear?
The roar of Niagara? I heard nothing
but the perfectly constructed musical
tone, clear, definite and -unapproach-
able in it's majestic perfection, a COM
plete series Of tones ali uniting in one
grand and noble unison, as in the or
gan"
Mr.. Thayer then describes at some
length the compound nature of a given
tone, and illustrates the overtones or
partials of the lowest of the thirty
two-foot pipe Of the organ. Then he
continues:
Il had long had q suspicion that I
should hear all this at Niagara when
her wonderful voice should first greet
my ears. 1t was just as I had sup
posed. How should I prove all this?
My first step was to visit the beautiful
Iris island, otherwise known as Goat
island. My next step was to stand on
Luna island, above the central fall, and
on the west side of the American fall
proper. I went on the extreme eastern
side of the island in order to get the
full force Of the larger fall, and sat
among the rapids. Next I went to the
Three Sisters island.
with more or less variation Of
pitch at these and many other points,
1 heard everywhere the notes of the
chord of G, only four octaves lower.
II arrive at my conclusions both
theoretically and practically. Let me
first call attention to the third and
fourth notes, ID and G.
THE ground note, G, was so deep,
so grand, so mighty, that 1 never could
realize it or take it into my thought or
hearing, but these two tones, only four
octaves lower, were everywhere, with
a power which made itself felt as well
as heard.
But, it will be replied, these two
notes were too low to be detected by
the sense Of hearing. How did l de-
termine their pitch?
81 first caught the harmonic notes
above them that were definite in pitch,
and then, counting the number of vi
brations of these lower two notes,
easily determined their distance below.
And here comes a curious feature
which proves that Niagara gives tone
and not a roar. The seventh note, the
interval Of the tenth, was of a power
and clearness entirely out Of proportion
to the harmonics as usually heard in
the organ.
Were the tone of Niagara a mere
noise this seventh note, would be either
weak or confused or absent altogether.

Whenever the record is broken in
crossing the Atlantic ocean there must
surely be a fiutter in the hearts Of the
commanders and a determination to
do still better. No ship has been allow
ed to hold fast to the record for
longer time than a year or two, so
perhaps the good ship st. Paul will
have shortly to look to her laurels.
Very like to race horses and race tracks
are the fast ships and the trans-At-
lantic routes. While the noise of the
winning Of the Futurity by Ogden is
still in our ears, so, too, is the footing
OF the whistles announcing to the world
that the American steamship ST. Paul
has won her Futurity, the race Of her
young life, for this passageway between
New York and London, sometimes via
Southampton and sometimes via Queen
stown, is as much of a race course as
IS the track on Long island or else
where.
The first ship to look over the ground
to see what the possibilities there might
be was the United States steamer Sa-
vannah, in 1919. She was twenty-five
days in going from Savannah to
Liverpool The good work she did was
to show the way. In 1886 the first en-
tries for the race across the western
ocean were made; the racers were the
Great Western, PIP feet long and of
1,340 tons burden, and the Sirius. 10
feet long and no tons burden Both
were English.
WON BY THE GREAT WESTERN
The race was a handicap the larger
ship sailing from Bristol three days
after the Sirius had taken her depart
ure from Cork. The Great Western
wen, steaming over distance of 3,125
miles in fifteen days, at an average
rate of speed of 80 knots. The next
year the British Queen, of 1000 tons,
lowered the record a trif1e, but on the
whole the Great Western was the mis-
tress of the seas, winning races and
money. To win today requires a speed
of more than twenty-one knots and a
size of 10000 TONS Then the horse
power was about 500; now it is about
10000
The year 1910 was a memorable one
in the history of the TRANSLATE race
track, for in that year there was or
ganized in England the Cunard COM
pany, for the purpose of running a sche-
duled line of steamers for the transpor-
tation Of mails, merchandise and pas
sengers between Great Britain and the
United States The first ship this COM
pany entered in the ocean race was the
Britannia, of ], 155 tons. She beat the
Great Western by nearly a day, max
Ing the run to Boston in a trif1e over
fourteen days and half, at an aver
age speed of 8.5 knots.
To win back their prestige the Great
Western people entered a new ship, the

other two-the Teutonic and the Ma

February, Of 1890. The Teutonic won
for time in five days, eighteen hours
and twenty-eight minutes, time
which some Of the onlookers were dis
posed to question, but she won the race.
For 1891 the Majestic, a sister ship,
passed under the wire about two hours
later, but still won the race for that
year, In 1892 the Inman put its steam
er City of Paris over the course In
about five days and fifteen hours
Then the Cunard came, as of DID, into
the running to win races, and with the
Lucania and Campania, bigger and
more powerfully engined than any
other ship in the world, scored many
triumphs, lowering the record in 1893
to five days and twelve hours, and in
1894 to about five days and eight hours
This time stands today as the best
over the track from the Sandy Hook
Hghtship to Roche's point.
HELD BY THE AMERICANS.
Over the other route-the one to
Southampton-the record is held by the
American liner st. Paul, a fraction over
six days. This route was traversed in
1894 by the New York of the same line
in six days and seven hours. This was
after the Inman line had become the
American line, or, to be more correct,
the International line. When the line
changed it's name the Paris and the
New York hauled down the red ensign
of st. George and hoisted the stars and
stripes, and the keels of the st. Paul
and the st. Louis were laid. Both these
American racers have won.
The contestants over this course are
the neutrality-suspicious., running to
Plymouth now, and the German Lloyds.
In 1898 the Fuerst Bismarck of the
former line made the running across
from Sandy Hook in six days and
eleven hours.
No other ship has thus far been able
to be even classed in the running with
the new American steamers. Even the
old champions of the Queenstown
route, the English built Paris and New
York, have had to dip their colors to
the American st. Louis and ST. Paul.

GIVING PHYsIC BY SUGGESTION.
Interesting Experiments in Medicine
That May Produce Great Results.

That May Produce Great Results.
Dr. Luys, a member of the French
Academy Of Medicine, expects startling
results from a series of experiments
which he claims to have carried to a
successful conclusion. The doctor be-
lieves that it is possible to administer
drugs without compelling the patient
to swallow them, says the Baltimore
Sun. In brief, he contends that by
throwing the subject into a hypnotic
state the medical influence Of the drugs
may be injected into his system by
merely presenting the dose, in a glass
tube, near his eye, his ear or his neck.
One peculiar feature Of the doctors ex-
pertments is the fact that the drug has
different effect when held on opposite
sides of the subjects head For in
stance, pepper presented on the right
side caused an expression of pleasure,
but when presented on the left side
the subject showed anxiety and worry
Equally different effects were noted
when sulphate of morphine, heliotrope,
fennel, ipecac and pure water were ap-
piled.
This confirms, so the doctor says, the
theory Of Charcot, that there is some
magnetic difference between the right
and left side of a person under hyp-
motto control. If DR.. Luys succeeds in
administering drugs by hypnotic sug-
the Learned apothecary'' are num-
bered. Humanity will no longer be
compelled to swallow the pills and
mixtures of the druggist, but will be
able to get relief from a small guam
tity Of the remedy introduced into the
anatomy only by suggestion. The doc
tor notes that when tube Of pure
water was held at the right side Of
hypnotized patients head 1t was fol-
lowed by mortified shrinkings and
commissions" When it was presented
on the left side the expression of the
subjects face indicated a most agree
able sensation. There Is a wide and
singularly useful application Of pure
water which may be made in the case
Of those festive gentlemen who find
their joy in the flowing bowl with
disastrous consequences next morning.
The bibulously inclined subject would
make night Of it" off a tube of water
held to the left side of the face, and on
the morrow he could complete the illu-
sion by applying it to the right side
and getting the jim-jams. Then he
could recover and renew the jag ad
lhitum. DR.. Luys may turn out to be
great reformer.

made the trip from Liverpool to New

was not to be outdone, and according
ly entered into the running with the

like the Britannia, but 500 tons larger.
Her speed was nine and a half knots.
This enabled her to hold her own,
though not to beat, until 1916, when the

A notable event at this time was the
organization in the United States Of
the Collins line, under the stimulus of
handsome subsidy from the United
States government. This was the first
and, until the organization Of the
American or International line, as it is
called, the only important American
rival which foreign corporations have
encountered in transatlantic steam
navigation. The ships Of the Collins
line were new departure in model
and arrangement. and exceeded in
speed and size anything then afloat
There followed lively times while
these rival subsidized mail steamships
were for eighteen years doing their best
to win the race across the ocean from
one another. In the beginning the
steamers were pretty evenly matched
the two new Cunarders being of near
ly $500 tons, as against the American
ship of $500 tons. All were side wheel
ers. In 1851 Collins ship, the Arctic,
called the Clipper of the Seas, gained g.
victory Of several hours over the Gu
Harders by running over the course
from New York to Liverpool in less
than ten days; and in the year follow
ing, 1852, she crossed in nine days and
thirteen hours
