From the Philadelphia Ledger.
New York, Aug. 12Z-The Rontgen rays
the wonderful x rays, as commonly
called-which have astonished the world
by Illuminating the human body, are now
declared to be material particles by no
less an authority than NikoIa Tesla. Mr.
Tesla has been led to take this view for
some time from the results of expert
ments which he has been conducting in
his laboratory, but now he comes forward
without hesitation and says that the cleo
trical conditions within the tube from
which the rays issue produce absolute
particles. They are as material as can
non balls, infiaitesimal and attenuated. it
is true, but actual material which bonn
bard the glass and any object which may
come in line with their motion. And this
motion is no insignificant thing, and
would make the most rapidly moving can
non ball appear to stand still. for Mr.
Tesla says his experiments show them to
move at velocity Of not less than sixty
two miles a second. Mr. Tesla further
says he can feel the effects Of these par
ticles striking against his eye, and has
noted the sensation produced when they
come In contact with his brain.
