Too Cold for Moths,

The Department of Agriculture,
through its entomologist, DIR. Howard,
some time ago instituted experiments
to determine at how low temperature
1t Is necessary to keep furs and wooden
goods in order to save them from the
ravages Of moths, carpet beetles, etc.
The results show that temperature Of
40 to AZ degrees f. during the summer
Is sufficiently low for the purpose.

A Motor Run by Moonlight.

An account is given in Nature Of q
motor, intended for delicate expert
ments in heat measurement, invented
by Mr.. A. r. BENEFIT. 1t is so sensitive
that it begins to revolve the moment it
Is exposed to daylight, even when the
sun is hidden; and in clear weather it
will work all night, being affected even
by the radiant heat Of moonlight. The
motive power is due to convection cur
rents set up inside the glass shade with
which the instrument is covered. While
the glass is not warmed by the radiant
heat Of daylight or moonlight passing
through 1t, the metal surfaces Of the
motor are, and the minute differences
Of temperature thus produced suffice to
start convection currents.

Aided by a brass band, the democrats,

managed to drum up crowd of thirty or

at Sanders hall where the speakers discussed
politics, finances and prices of commodities
for a couple Of hours The meeting was

stated that If the crowd did not gather
shortly, he would turn out the lights and

this announcement was made, DR.. Saville

Glen talked to the empty benches for a time
and until the band was prevailed to go up
stairs and play. After the selection had
been rendered, Glen reviewed his speech,
taking up the theme OF national politics,
touching upon the former republican admin
istration; warming up to some extent when
he got down to city matters. He said that
he could swallow the whole of the fusion
but failed to discuss the merits of the sew

to know that they had been nominated by

ties. This, he declared, was the only en-

AGREEMENT CONCERNING RATES
Attorneys Say Western Companies
MnX Grnnt Reduced Enrcs.

Attorneys Say Western Companies
Mny Grant Reduced Fares.
CHICAGO, April 9.--The legal advisers of
the western roads have advised the commit
tee now working on the new agreement of
the Western Passenger association that there
Is nothing In the decision to prevent the
roads from granting reduced rates whenever
they choose, and that the roads can make or
maintain any and all kinds of rates as long
as the rates do not interfere with the con-
venience of any individual road. They base
this assertion upon the supreme court deci-
sion, which stated that the reasonableness or
unreasonableness of the rates did not enter
into consideration at all.
There could not be any agreement which
did not to a certain extent interfere with
the freedom of action of all the roads par
ticipating. Just in proportion to the ex-
tent which 1t did SO interfere with indi-
vidual action 1t was a restriction Of trade,
and therefore unlawful. Therefore, no agree
ment of any kind affecting competition rates
could legally be made.
Now the railroad attorneys reason that
any agreement that does not restrict the ac-
tion of the roads is not unlawful and that
II does not become unlawful until 1t does so
restrict. Under this advice the old agree
ment of the Western Passenger association
can be allowed to stand with the exception
of the clause regarding the maintenance of
rates and that providing for the division of
traffic for the purpose of maintaining rates.
The western roads are expecting trouble
over their emigrant rates, The supreme
court decision has knocked out the emigrant
clearing house as a controller of rates, al
though the roads have been advised that 1t
can be kept in effect as a solicitor of busi-
ness. There has always been much trouble
over this class of business and the roads of
the Western Passenger association have had
great trouble with the Southern Pacific,
which they declare paying commissions
too high for the provisions of the agreement.
There Is now very little hope that the western
roads will be able to induce the Southern
Pacific to lower it's commission rates, and
the Union Pacific and one two of the other
roads are becoming restive under the stu
alton. All the roads are looking for demor-
alization in the emigrant business in the near
future and they see no means of avoiding it,
