NICOLA TESLA'S SUGGESTIONS.
How to Remove the Dangers That AT
tend X-Ray Experiments.

NEW YORK, May 6.-Nicola Tesla has
been making exhaustive experiments with
Roentgen rays with a view to reducing
their danger to the human system. lie mas
made a number of valuable announcements
before scientific bodies, notably before a
recent meeting of the Academy of Sciences.
Mr. Tesla has now given voice to his de-
ductions, so far as he has determined them,
in a long statement of his experience with
rays. which appears in to-days Electrical
Review, ard in the course of it makes some
announcements certain to create wide ms
cussion and comment in the scientific world.
Summing up his experiments Mr.. Ielsa
said: ut would be advisable first, to aban-
don the use of bulbs containing platinum; !;
second, to substitute for them properly
constructed Lenard tube. containing pure
aluminium only. a tube of this Kind having,
besides the advantage that it is constructed
with great mechanical precision, and there
fore is capable of producing much sharper
Impressions; third, TO use a protective
screen of aluminium sheeting, or instead or
this a wet cloth or a layer of fluid. fourth,
TO make the exposures at a distance of at
least fourteen inches and preferably to eX-
pose longer at a greater distance"

SPEECH BY SALISBURY.
The Eastern Question Discussed by
Great Britain's Premier.

LONDON, May 6.-The annual meeting
of She Primrose League took place to-day
at Albert Hall. There was large attend
ance of members and the galleries were
crowded. The platform was handsomely
decorated with flags and flowers. Among
those present were the Dukes of
Marlborough, Leeds and Norfolk and
many eminent peers and members of
the House of Commons. Nine. Albani sang
the national anthem. The Marquis of Sails
bury, who was enthusiastically cheered.
congratulated the league on the continuous
progress it has been making in celebrating
the reign of Queen Victoria. This, he said
was an epoch in English history which gave
the league special reason to rejoice at the
characteristics of her Majestys great reign.
The premier dwet at length on the
Graeco- Turkish war and the concert of Eu-
rope, the main object of which, he said
was to prevent a European war adding
that the belief prevailed that all danger of
such a war was finally dissipated and that
the peace of Europe, apart from the local
conflict, had been placed on a better basis
and had better hope in its future than
ever before. Her Majesty's government.
the premier also said, would do It's best
to end the bloodshed
In his concluding reference to the war the
Marquis of Salisbury said: THE opening of
the Eastern question was greatly dreaded
but 1t has now come like a nightmare
There has been great terror that anv ont
break in the southeast of Europe might
lead to general blaze, bat it is to be hoped
that the danger is past and that we may
look calmly on the larger interests in
volved. 1t may be that Turkey has ex-
hibited proofs of strength which none sus-
pected, and perhaps "a better future is open
to the dominionS of the Sultan. Their gov
ernment may improve, or maybe the en-
pire will collapse, many have feared
In either case we are justified in believing
that all changes will be conducted under
the sanction of peaceful deliberations"
Referring to South Africa the MARQUIS of
Salisbury declared that the London conyen-
tion must be observed.
The Duke of Marlborough proposed a
resolution conSratulating the Queen on the
and on the growth of patriotic and frater-
nal feeling in the various portions of her
Majesty's dominions The resolution was
adopted.

NEW ORLEANS PROTECTED.
New Levees Constructed to Hold Back
the "Father of Waters"

NEW ORLEANS, May 6--Another day of
stationary river and fine weather has
raised hopes and placed the line in excel
lent condition. Each levee board expresses
great confidence in its ability to hold the
line. The upper protection levee above the
city has been completed finishing the local
defense line and uneasiness here has so far
been allayed that discussion about the
future has begun. The railroads have of
fered TO build a broad levee in front and
above the city, agreeing to keep it in order
for the privilege of putting tracks on the
levee top. The Ponchartrain board ex-
presses uneasiness about the Burton levees
in Baton Rouge at the crown of their de-
fenses, but the owners of the mill located
there say it is safe, and they will hold it
against the river, as it protects their. .Yalua-

A COURTEOUS KICK
Japan Objects to the Proposed Tarifa
Rates

WASHINGTON, June 19.-The pro-
test made by the japanese government
against the pending tariff bill is formal
ly embodied in note from Minister
Toru Hossi under date of June 8. The
protest is couched in the most courteous
language, but there is a firmness of tone
observable that indicates that the re-
monstrance may be followed by acts OF
retaliation if disregarded The note be-
gins with an apology in expressing the
opinion that under ordinary conditions
it might be regarded as trenching upon
domestic affairs, but cites as justifica-
ton the fact that important Japanese
interests were involved, and that In the
opinion of the Minister the proposed In
crease of duties will injure the United
States no less than Japan, by retarding
the growth Of promising commercial rec
lations. The articles Of Japanese pro-
ducticn which will be most seriously a.
fected, says the protest, are light weieho
silks, silk handkerchiefs, mating, henan
and jute rugs, carpets and tea. 4 =
