get. A free coinage bill was no~-pos-
sible and Senator Cockrell hoped that
it would pass without amendment.
Senators Allen, Butler, PETER and
Stewart (all populists) favored Sena-
tor Buffers amendment.
Senator Buffers Amendment Lost.
Senator Buffers amendment was de-
fcated by 10 to go, as follows:
Senator Buffers amendment sought
tc prohibit any future issue of bonds,
requested payment Of silver in redeem-
ing United States notes when that met
al is worth less than gold.
Senator Allen (pop., Neb.) offered an
amendment depriving the secretary Of
the treasury Of the power to issue
bonds without the prior authority Of
congress.
Senator White (dem., Cal.) thought
it unwise to unload the measure with
Greek" amendments. Gifts of that
character might result in the defeat Of
the substitute.
Another Amendment Defeated.
Senator Aliens amendment prohib-
iting the future issue Of bonds without
congress having declared the necessity
thereof was defeated by a vote Of 81
ayes and 81 nays.
Senator Morrill, (rep., VIZ offered an
amendment providing that the seign-
forage equal to the difference between
the coinage and the commercial value
of the silver shall he retained by the
United States. This was SO fair q
proposition, he said, that lie believed it
would be agreed to.

CAN'T AGREE ON BAYARD.

House Foreign Affairs Committee Dis
agree on Nature Of Resolutions.
Washington, Feb. 1.-The house
committee on foreign affairs was un-
able to agree Saturday morning upon
a resolution censuring Ambassador
Dayard for his two speeches and adj
journed until afternoon after two
hours debate. The republican mem
bers endeavored to prevail upon the
democrats to agree to mild express
sion of disapproval, but the latter
maintained the position that the mat
ter was one with which the house has
nothing to do. Therefore, it is proba.
BILE that the republicans will report q
more. severe resolution by party vote
They have drafted composite from
the two forms suggested by Mr.. Pear
son North Carolina) and Mr.. Cousins
(Iowa) and 1t is probable that they
will agree upon it. 1t censures Ambas-
sador Bayard and requests United
States representatives abroad to re-
frain from uttering reflections upon
their government.

Soon Be Out on Bail.
New York, Feb. IA special cable
dispatch to the Journal from olannes-
burg, says: The United States consular
agent, Mr.. Manion, and the special COM
missioner, Mr.. +. A. Brown, acting un-
der instructions from Secretary Olney,
interviewed the president and executive
Friday on behalf of John Hays Ham
mond and others. The Transvaal gov

ney's cable which states that the United

President Kruger promised to
hasten Hammond's preliminary hear
ing with view to fixing the amount of
bail.
Mr.. Knight, acting American consul
mt Cape Town, an Englishman by birth,
who has never been in America nor
visited the Transvaal before, arrived at
Pretoria on Saturday. He is wording
to get America to cooperate with Eng
land. AT meeting of Americans Fri
day he angrily threatened to suspend
Manion for cabling direct to Secretary
Olney without consulting him.
Manion's defense is the urgency of
the case and direct authority from Oh
ney.
Hammond is well and hopes for an ex-
animation according to President Krue-
gers promise.

EXPERIMENT WITH X RAYS
Local Electricians Attempt to Photo.
graph q ID Roentgen
The First Trial Proved . Failure, But the Ex-
pertinent VIII Be Repeated-lnteresting
Bit Of Scientific Work

An interesting experiment in photograph
ing with cathode rays was conducted by q
number of gentlemen at the electrical lab
oratory of Professor William Lundberg at
322 South Broadway yesterday evening.
The same apparatus used by Professor
Roentgen OF Wurzburg the discoverer of the
curious form of radiation, was employed in
the experiment. A high.vacuum Crooke' g
tube was attached to 5-cell battery hav-
ing current of 10 volts and an induction
coil of 1000 vibrations per minute.
The objects which it was in.
tended to photograph, . Masonic en-
blem inclosed in small paste.
board box, . small rubber comb and
silver half dollar, were placed exactly
~ inches below the tube on the frame
containing the photographic plate. The
objects we're given an exposure OF three
quarters Of an hour. ]. T. Bertrand, the
photographer who had charge of the devel-
oping of the plates, then took them to his
gallery at 2O5H South Main street, where
they were submitted to the regular devel-
oping process. Although the experiment
was conducted practically the same as
those OF the discoverer, Roentgen, no re-
suits were obtained. The plates came out
of the dark room foRgy. Whether it was
due to some slight mistake in the
process, or whether the plates were rem
known. Mr.. Bertrand is of the opinion
that the failure was due to the latter
cause. At any rate, no impression what
ever was secured. The experiment will
be tried again this evening, and every pre-
caution will be taken to insure success.

grounds. The bodies, he said, were put in
the dead house, in . pickling vat, where
they were sometimes kept for several days.
after which they were buried. In regard
to the loss of his clothing, Mr.. Golfer says
that the asylum people laid the blame for
that on the Los Angeles county jail officials.
DR.. Campbell had told him that the cloth.
ing that he wore when he came to the
asylum was infested with vermin, and that
il all had to be burned. He says that he
knows he was clean and we'll dressed when
he was taken to the Jail, in which statement
he is corroborated by his wife.
In regard to the alleged investigation by
the San Bernardino county grand jury, Mr..
Golfer says that it was farce. The asy-
lum officials had notice of the visit, and
everything was prepared for them. The
place was cleaned up ard the grand jury
divided up and walked through the several
wards. The patients were ordered to keep
their seats. and forbidden to speak word
while the juryman were in the building.
Ofcourse o favorable report was returned,
as there was nothing else to do.
In conclusion, Mr.. Golfer said that he
was willing to appear before any commits
sion appointed to investigate the asylum
management. He would be able to give
names and dates, and could substantiAte
with proof every statement made by him.
He did not wish to be understood as saying
that the management did not have many
good points, but there were fragrant abuses
which should be at once corrected, and
brutal and ignorant attendants who should
be At once removed. This was demanded
in the interest of common humanity, and
should not be delayed.
