Quay I'm n Quandary.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1O.-When Senator
Quay LETT the capitol after the adjourn
ment of the senate today, he had almost
decided to withdraw his motion to re-
commit the tariff bill, or at least not to
press it. This was the result of the inn
portunity OF several Republican senators,
who, arter canvaSsing the situation
among the Democratic senators, had as
certained to their satisfaction that while
there would be 4 solid vote on the part
OF both POpulistS and Democrats against
recommitung, there would be no difficulty
in getting comparatively large vote on
the Democratic side OF the chamber
against the free coinage substitute for the
bill.
This turn in the situation has led to
an active canvass of the probable vote
on the substitute. and on the original bill
IN case the substitute is voted down.
This survey has necessarily been incom-
plete. but the result is such as to cause
the opponents of the substitute to believe
II can be defeated. They count upon the
entire a.nA-silver vote on the Republican
side, besides the vote of many silver
Republicans, who will not agree to dis
place the tariff bill with a silver bill,
ana also upon getting a large majority
II. not all of the anU-silver Democrats
against the substitute. With the substi-
tute defeated the vote would recur on the
tariff bill proper.
The friends OF this measure are not so
cure Of its SUCCESS as are the atftago
lists Of the defeat % that measure. They
are led to believe there will be a solid

SAN FRANCISCO. Feb. 1O.-Julien
D. Hayne, editor of The Hawaiian. a
monthly magazine published in Homo

Australia. He takes a very pessimistic
view Of the present government Of
Hawaii and says the Japanese are
becoming SO numerous there and so
firmly rooted that the islands are in
danger of becoming mere outposts of
japan.

Mr.. Hayne has not been much i'm

Newspaper comments in Europe and
the United States show a grave mis-
nagnanimity OF the rules Of Hawaii,v
he observed. Take the so-called re-
lease and pardons of political prison
ers, for instance. The truth is that
no pardons at all have been granted.
Something similar to the British
ticket-of-leave has been brought into
play. All the political prisoners are
at large, having been discharged in
four squads. the first getting out of

The Wizard of MenIo Park Declares
the Subjects Are Not Put in the
Least Danger.

ORANGE, N. J., Feb. 10.-Thoma.s A.
Edison was hard at work all day in
his laboratory in West Orange, pre-
pairing for his experiment of photo
graphing the human brain with the
aid of the newly discovered x ray.
With the aid of mercury pumps he
labored assiduously ON Crooke's tubes
of his own manufacture. To the mouth
of each tube a long glass tube was at
tached and through this by means of a
connecting tube in tho side the mer-
curry was run and the air in Crookes
tube was gradually exhausted by the
mercury.
Surrounded by score or more of
reporters and other visitors, Mr. Edi-
son sat for hours watching the pro-
gress of the work. and ne displayed
wonderful amount of patience when,
after repeated trials. the desired re-
suit was not obtained. Again and
again the efforts were repeated, and
Mr.. Edison explained to the reporters
that he was trying to see whether the
rays were longitudinal, etheric vibra-

cality being purely local in influence.
He was DESTROYS Of finding the degree
of vacuum in a tube which would give
the best effort of X rays In another
experiment today he caused the rays
to pass through a piece of steel one
half an inch thick. He also found
that the mysterious rays We're capable
of penetrating a bit of card board. a
piece of ceIluloid and half-inch strip
of steel combined, leaving the plate
uniformly black. Had the rays not
penetrated the steel the plate would
naturally have been black in the place
where the steel was not interposed. He
secured similar results several times
with equal precision.
In regard to his proposed attempt at
photographing the human brain, the
representative of the Associated Press
asked Mr. Edison if there would be
any danger of the subjects suffering
any physical injury from the rays
which would necessarily be forced
through the head, as it had been sug-
geSted that spark of electricity from
the tube might cause some injury to
the nervous system. Mr.. Edison re-
piled:
No; the subject would be in no
danger whatever, as there is no am
perage in the rays in the tube, and it
is the amperage that works the harm"
Tomorrow he will try to photograph
sections of the head only, by placing
a small film, which is the plate, in
closed in celluloid covers, in the mouth
Of the subject with the plate facing
the palate. The rays from the fluor-
eScent bulb electrode will then be di-
rected so as to penetrate the skull and
strike the plate at the desired angle
Another plate similarly enclosed in Gel
luloid covers will be in the subjects
mouth, facing the right or left side of
the head, and The rays will be placed
accordingly. This, in Mr.. Edisons
opinion, should warrant a successful
negative, as the rays would only have
to pass through one thickness of the
skull: and then, if the attempt is sat
isfactory. he will try to photograph the
entire head with the plate resting at
the back and the rays penetrating the
face and also the subject lying on his
side, to have the rays penetrate from
the right or left with the plate on the
opposite side.

An Incident Attending the Activity
in the Sub-Treasury Precincts.
NEW YORK. Feb. 1O-An incident at
tending the activity in the sub-treas-
ury precincts today, on account of the
rush of bidders for the new government
bonds wishing to make deposits of gold
was a somewhat brisk verbal encounter
between Assistant Treasurer Conrad N
Jordan and Mr.. Zimmerman of the bull
lion brokerage firm of Zimmerman &
Forshay. The sub-treasury was the
scene of a busy throng of brokers, bank
Zimmerman, turning to a customer
of his who was in the line of deposit
ors for bonds. pointed to a number of
bags of gold which were lying on the
floor of the suh-treasury and remarked:
There is your gold, delivered according
TO contract"
Mr. zimmerman had three times prev
iously today obtained gold at the sub
treasury on presentation of greenbacks
and delivered the same to his custom
ers. On the fourth occasion, however,
Mr.. Jordan interviewed and refused TO
accept the gold, which was carried away
at the expense of the broker
Mr.. Zimmerman demanded the reason
of the refusal to accept the gold and
Mr.. Jordan made the point that, while
any principal or representative of a
principal could not be prevented from
drawing gold on presentation of green
backs the government buildings could
not be utilized for the delivery of gold
by brokers TO their customers IT
would have been taken had the gold
been taken away and brought back
afterwards by the purchaser. The affair
created no little excitement at the time.

Morton,s Statement.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 10.-Being
asked as to the charge made in the
senate this afternoon by Senator Vest
that the secretary Of agriculture had
distributed 10000 more packages of
seed in Nebraska than that state was
entitled to last year Secretary Morton
said:
Under the law one-third of all the
seed purchased was to be distributed
by the secretary of agriculture. In &C
cordance with that provision some
years ago when there was great suffer-
ing along the sea islands of the Car
DINA coast, the secretary of agricul-
ture gave a great portion of one-third
he was authorized to distribute to the
people whose fields and gardens had
been ruined by tidal waves. AS to that
large distribution to those southern suf-
ferers no complaint was made There
fore, during the recent seasons of eX-
IRENE drouth in the northwest, the
secretary of agriculture frankly con-
fesses that he gave far more than the
normal quota of seed to Nebraska,
Kansas, the Dakotas and to Oklahoma.
The senators and representatives from
the states named and the delegate from
Oklahoma will verify this statement
This was a charitable and not a polit
ical distribution.
THE quotas of the drouth-stricken
sections were sent directly to be dis
tributed by societies and persons desig-
mated by their respective communities
for that charitable work.
1.-THE secretary challenges the sever
est scrutiny of his Intentions and his
acts and is delighted with the charac
ter of the enemies he seems to be prop
agating.'
"But single members of the house.
and senate. as the records of the de-
partment show, have distributed in a
year several times as many seeds III
their respective states and districts as
they were entitled to.
And how and from whom did those
liberal gentlemen get those great guam
titles of seed?"
