Of modern wizard OF the

good man speeches. with dismay that
man should dare 10 defy The ediot OF
the Almighty establishing night upon
the earth. LlGht without heat. the
Idea long sought by the inventor
seems at last to be within reach OF the
world. when d. McFarian Moore.
young man Of less than thirty years
Of age. showed his apparatus last year
at the electrical exhibit. many older
heads were ready TO laugh at his
claims. says a writer In the illustrated
American. But Mr. Moore has quietly
and perslstently continued his work
until today his perfected apparatus Is
practically ready for the market. The
magical wand with which he achieves
his ends IL a vacuum tube. His theory
Is that light L. simply the motion Of
particles Of the ether and the more
ponderable substances SO he removes
most Of the air from the tube In order
10 give the PARTICLES free play Then
he strikes these particles a series Of
extremely rapid blows by means OF an
interrupted current Of electricity. Six
~ thousand times a minute the cur

now IN use. When Mr.. Moore exhibited
his light a year ago the number Of
pglsations was but 5000 a minute and
produced by a very imperfect meohan-
ism. Then a little steel spring rapidly
moving In a vacuum did the work. But
after a time the steel lost a. elasticity
and refused 10 operate. Finally con-
WINGED that his principle was sound
and that only a question Of mechanical
construction awaited solution. the pa

and substituted a pendulum. The result
met the requirements. After months
Of operation the little vibrator worked
as perfectly az a. the beginning. But
not yet was Mr. Moore satisfied One
OF these little vlbraiors was needed
with every light tube and he knew that
this would seriously interfere with its
practical use Was there not some
means whereby the Interruptions could
be made for many lamps asd with even
higher frequency The answer came In
the form Of a wheel. Instead OF stop.

Comes in a Torrent.

London, May 25.-The correspondent
of the Times at Athens says: The tor
rent of recrimina ton, denunciation and
bitter invictives which was checked by
the fear of the immediate Turkish ad-
vance to Athens has broken out
afresh, now that this danger has been
removed by the armistice The authors
of the war policy, equally with those
who are held responsible for the
disasters, are being dragged before the
bar of public opinion. So far as the
officials culprits are concerned, ii is
believed that the government may ap-
point q commission of inquiry TO pun
ish the guilty. A thorough investiga-
ton into the hospital and commssary
departments will probably entail
scandalous disclosures.
The Ethnike Tetaira is bitterly
denounced and the government is
urged to seize its funds, TO confscate
its stores and arms and to compel il
to render an account. The government
is not likely to accede to this sugges-
ton, but many persons prominent in
political life are closely connected with
conscious of its strength, has decided
to remain silent and TO preserve its
mysterious and invisible character
Possibly smitten with computations,
however. the society ho; donated Co.
600 drachmaS for the relief of the
Thessalian refugees. This is appar-
emily the best justified item Of all its
expenditures.

No Trouble in Securing Jury, Only

Washington, May 25.-The trial of H. o.
Havemeyer. president of the American
Sugar Refining company. for refusing to
answer questions propounded by the
senate sugar investigating committee in
the spring of 1894, began before Judge
GridIey today.
There was a large crowd in attendance.
No trouble was experienced in securing
q jury. only three peremptory challenges

the prosecution.
District Attorney Davis conducted the
case fo- the government. and Nathaniel

peared fo- the defense.

not testify today.
The witnesses today were the file clerk
of the senate. the committees stenog-
rapher. and Senators Gray, Lodge. Davis
and Lindsay. who were on the invesugat-
ing committee.
The line of defense as disclosed today.
is that the question asked which looked
to the production of data as to the politi-
cal contributions of the sugar company
to state and local elections was not peril
nent TO the inquiry This was shown by
the repeated DEVELOPMENTS of the fact
that Mr.. Havemeyer answered the ques-
ton as to the national campaign ard as
to the election of United States senators
before the legislators. This line of de-
Tense was anticipated somewhat by the
district attorney. Considerable stress
was clso placed on the attempt of the
defense to show that Senator Aliens
question (Which Mr.. Havemeyer declined
to answer, was an individual not a
committee. question. but the testimony
today went to prove that the query was
by the direction of the COM
mittee.
