wisconsin Central Can Meet G. A. r..
Rates of tho Great Western.
CHICAGO, Feb. 17.-Relief was af-
forded to the Wisconsin Central road
during the day in the matter of ar
engagements for the G. A. r. encamp-
ment at st. Paul next September. The
chairman of the Western Passenger as
ISOLATION gave it authority to meet the
action of the Chicago Great Western
road in extending the limitation of
tickets until Sept. 10, with the option
to holders to have them extended until
the end Of the month by depositing
them with the company's ticket agent
at St. Paul prior to Sept. 10. The Wis
consin Central was given further au-
thority to tender these arrangements to
connecting roads for basing purposes.
It's connections say, however, that they
will not avail themselves of the offer.
They are satisfied with the first ar
rangements agreed to and cannot af-
ford to have longer limitation of tickets
ct a cent per mile than was provided
for in them,

Road Grants the G. A. r.
Rates Asked.
Confidently Expected That the
500 Will Soon Follow
the Example.
Other Chicago-St. Paul Lines
Must Now Back Down
or Get Left.

ST. PAUL. Feb. 1.-THE Minneapolis
aud St. Louis railroad has fallen into
line with the Chicago Great Western
aud the Wisconsin Central and will
grant the same rate and the same ex-
tension of time on special rate tickets
for the G. A. r. national en~campment
o. the latter two roads. 1t is rumored
that the 500 road will soon fall into
line.
This action simply bears out the first
predictions made as to the ultimate
course that the Chicago lines would
adopt. So long as the Chicago Great
Western stood alone in ite offer to grant
the G. A. r. the terms desired, there
was a possibility that the remaining
Ave Chicago lines might hold out, con-
fdent that one road could not handle
all the business. When the Wisconsin
Central also broke away and followed
The example Of the Great Western, the
chances Of the combine holding out
were materially lessened, and now that
the Minneapolis and st. Louis has
withdrawn from the agreement, there
10 no longer any doubt as to the result.
With three of the six Chicago lines
granting the desired rates and 80 days
extension on tickets, the Milwaukee,
Omaha and Burlington will scarcely
stand by and see these roads monopo-
lie all the business.

THE BOARD IN CONTEMPT

Commissioner of Iron County, Wis.,,
Sold Court Property for Taxes.
MADISON, Wis, Feb. H. Every
member of the Iron county board has
been cited to appear before Judge Bum
Of the United States circuit court for
the Eastern district of Wisconsin. on the
charge of contempt of court. 1t seems
that they have been violating an order
of the court restraining them from SELL
ing certain mining land for taxes. The
property involved is two of the mines,
the Father Hennepin and the Snyders,
including the holdings Of the Gogeb;c
Development company, which went
into liquidation some time ago. While
this property was in the hands of a re-
ceiver the supervisors of Iron county,
where it is located, ordered it sold for
delinquent taxes. and the certif-
cate was purchased by Louis Wetzler
of Hurley, who is included as a party
defendant in the contempt proceedings.
The trouble is likely to prove serious for
the supervisors, as contempt Of the
United States court is not apt to be
lightly treated.

Fitzsimmons is a sorely disappointed

EDIsoNs NEW LIGHT
something About the Develop
nents Of Recent weeiks
BY the use Of E1uorcscent substebcce the
Wizard Has Produced . Lamp That
Gives ont Little Heat But
brilliant Light. T. SIS

Edisons new white light, which he
has called the fuorescents lamp, Is
about ready for the market. In formit
Is similar 70 the incandescent lamp
now In use, but in principle II Is vastly
different. There Is q glass globe from
which q part Of the air; inside has been
extracted, but there Is no absolute
vacuum. Unlike the electric lamp, the
whole globe CLOVIS with pure white
light Of marvellous illuminating power.
This powerful light comes from a
metallic crystal known as "tungstate,;. =
which is metal as heavy as gold. In
Germany II Is known under the name
of 'tungstein." The Illuminating prop.
erty, says the st. Louis Republic, Is
due to a peculiar attribute OF the tung-
state crystal itself.
The fact that these crystals glow
when slightly rubbed was known 70
the wizard of Menlo Park. and he set
to work to use that property in the In
tercst OF science. The crystals Gre
fused into glass globe by heating
the glass until 1t is soft. 1t then absorbs
the tungstate crystals and holds them
firmly when it cools.
Mr.. Edison says that he could get the
best results when using the crystals
on the sides of the globe. Two wires
enter the globe at one end, but do not
meet. by means of an induction cur
rent generated in a faradic battery
the molecules OF the wires are thrown
into motion and the impulse thus given
travels along the wires until 1t reaches
the ends inserted into the globe. This
molecular impulse Is communicated to
the molecules of air in the globe. IN
turn the air molecules are driven with
almost inconceivable rapidity against
the crystals of tungstate welded into
the inner walls of the glass. The inn
pact causes the crystals to glow. The
glow caused by single blow of these
air molecules is. of course. very slight,
hut multiplied thousands of times and
the blows repeated continuously ut an
