A KITE ASCENSION.
Successful Experiment. Made ut Gov
ernor's Island.

Successful Experiment Made ut Gov
ernor's Island.
New York, Jan. 25. = Lieutenant
Hugh g. Wise, of the Ninth infantry
on Governors island, has just made the
first kite ascension ever successfully at
tempted in America. For six months
the lieutenant, entirely on his own re-
sponsibility, has been studying and ex-
perimenting with kites as means Of
assisting armies in warfare. The tan
dem system of specially constructed
kites is intended to supplant the use of
balloons, which cannot live in gales.
The lieutenant's kites are cellular.
They consist of rectangular frames Of
spruce. Cotton string and cotton cloth
in strips are stretched around the ends
of the frames, leaving both ends Of the
rectangular framework open, and also
an open strip in the center. Thus four
lifting surfaces and four guiding sur
faces are presented to the wind.
When the breeze freshened to FIVE
mile-an-hour, the lieutenant was hoist
ed ffty-two feet SO that he could see
over the caves Of the officers quarters
and down the bay. Ihe force repre-
sented by the pulling of the four kites
is estimated at 400 pounds.
~ have studied the system of Pro-
fessor Langley, of the Smithsonian in
stitution; Professor Markham. of the
weather bureau, and Civil Engineer
Chanute, of Chicago, who are making
special experiments, in aerial naviga-
tion with aeroplanes," said Lieutenant
Wise.
''The experiment shows that kites
are serviceable in a gale which would
tear balloon to pieces where it is de-
sired to observe the surrounding count
ry and inspect the maneuvers Of an
enemy. I attribute my success to a
close view of the methods of those who
have studied the subject, rather than
to my own effort

Introduced by Hermann.

Washington, Jan. 26.-Representa-
tive Hermann has introduced bill to
amend the Indian depreciation claims
law, whereby Inhabitants" and not
only "citizens, shall be entitled to
sue for payment. The original act en-
braced citizens only. Many of the old
settlers losing property had at the time
only declared their intention to become
citizens. The amendment also pro-
vides that the Indians committing
depredations may have been merely i'm
treaty relations" SO as to give the
right to claimants to recover. The ex-
listing law gives jurisdiction to the court
as to such claims as were committed by
Indians in ''amity," at least the SUI
preme court construed the law to have
this meaning. The amendment also
simplifies the taking of testimony in
such cases.

ut, critics, However, Deny That It
Sanitary Measures Taken in Europe.
Marseilles, Jan. 26.-The greatest
feeling of alarm prevails here among
the masses of the population on account
of a number of sudden deaths which
have occurred in one street. Some
days ago report was circulated here
that case of bubonic plague had been
discovered. This was promptly denied
and precautions taken to guard against
the introduction of the plague were re-
doubled, and especially in the vicinity
of the ..old and new ports, where the
maritime population congregates. In
those neighborhoods, seamen and
others from all parts of the world are to
be found in great numbers, and in the
vicinity Of the old port, especially, the
streets are narrow in the extreme, lined
with old and overpopulated houses, and
in every way unhealthy, the cobble-
stone roadway as a rule having cutters
through which vile drainage flows.
Since the alarm, steps have been taken
to clean the streets as much as possible.
and d0miciliary visits have been made
by the health officers in the most dan
gerous quarters.
Under the circumstances it is not ex-
traordinary that the authorities were
greatly alarmed when the report was
first spread that case of bubonic
plague had been discovered, but it was
not until today that the public became
frightened. 1t was announced that
nine sudden deaths had occurred in one
street within few days, and of course
the. plague was claimed, rightly OF
wrongly, in every case. The health
officers declare that all nine cases were
deaths from infectious pneumonia, y
but the public is very far from being
satisfied.
Dispatches received from Paris show
that the government is fully alive. to
the danger of the situation. DEGREES
have been Issued forbidding pilgrims
from leaving Algeria, Tunis and Sene-
gambia this year for Mecca, and mer-
chandise must, under severe penalty be
imported from India through five desig-
mated ports, of which this is one. AT
these ports of entry Indian merchandise
will be allowed to land only after hav-
ing been most thoroughly fumigated
and otherwise disinfected. Quantities
of anti-plague serum are being sent
here and to other ports, and all ships
from the East will be carefully ex-
aminnd and quarantined, if necessary.

Measures Taken to Protect the Forth
ming Book.
Chicago, Jan. 26.-A bill was filed
today in the circuit court of Cook coun-
ty, by Hon. William ]. Bryan and his
publishers, the w. B. Conkey Com
pany, through their attorneys, for the
purpose of enjoining certain publishers
in Chicago and the Northwest from
pirating his forthcoming book, known
as 'The First Battle" The bill was
filed with Judge Holton, who granted
an injunction without notice against the
Dominion Publishing Company, H. L.
Barber, manager; the Hubbard Pub
fishing Company, A. H. Kuhlman &
Co., and others. These parties were
restrained from publishing revamped
edition of the old Hubbard campaign
under the title of Bryan, Sewall and
Free Silver" The publishers of the
book are charged in the bill with hav-
ing attempted to pirate the name
adopted by Bryan for his forthcoming
publication, 1.-THE First Battle" These
defendants are also charged with call
ing the book 'sThe Great Battle" an
imitation of the title adopted by Bryan,
and under which his book is to be
placed on the market.

d. Hartman Shot and Killed Near the
Oregon Border.
Grants Pass, Jan. 27.-Somewhat
meagre particulars have reached this
city of murder committed in the
Chetco mountains, about twenty five
miles north of Chetco, CAL, on the
21st inst.
D. Hartman, an expert miner from
Groveland, N. Y, and a man named
Jones had some difficulty, growing out
of a dogight, when, without any other
provocation than the mere disagree
ment, Jones seized a Winchester and
shot Hartman, killing him instantly.
Jones then left, and is supposed to be
headed this way, though SO far as
known no effort is being made to cap
ture him.
The shooting occurred at a mining
camp, and was witnessed by but one
man, who had camped with Jones, and
who, in company with P. Costello, the
postmaster, at Smith River, CAL, took
the body to Chetco, where it is being
embalmed for shipment East.
Jones is described as man 5 feet 8
inches in height, weighing $50 pounds,
nearly bald-headed, with a sandy COM
plexion. The name of Jones is be-
lieved to be assumed.

Tho Lond Postal BIZ.

Washington, Jan. 26.-The senate
committee on postofices and post roads
resumed the hearing on the Loud Sec
ond-class mail bill today. Orville j.
Victor, chairman of the New York
committee of publishers. said the bill
was to the interest of the press COM
panies and opposed to the interests OF
the public, which demands good and
cheap literature. Victor called atten-
tion to large amount of government
matter carried free which would, he
said, go far towards accounting for the
postoffce department deficit, and Great
ed general laugh at the expense ot
the committee by reading newspaper
extract characterizing most of this mat
ter as congressional buncombe.
John Elderkin, of the New York
Ledger, claimed that under the pro-
posed law such papers as the Ledger
would be excluded from the privilege
of being entered as second-class mail
matter.
S. S. Mcclure addressed himself es-
pecially to Senator Chandler's proposed
amendments, referring to the distribu-

have the effect, he said, of requiring
the publishers of magazines to organize
their own system Of distribution, and
thus both increase the cost as well as
decrease the circulation of their publi-
cations. Any addition to the cost
would render it impossible to publish
10-cent magazines To advance the
price of the magazines TO Is cents
would be to cut the circulation one half.
Chandler said he did not propose to
press his amendments.
J. S. Ogilvie denied the assertion
made at a meeting last Saturday that
some of his publications were indecent.
He asserted that the government was
under an implied contract with pub
fishers to maintain the present rates.
Yates Hickey, of the American Rail-
way Literary Association, favored the
bill.
David Williams, proprietor of the
New York Iron Age, submitted an
argument in favor of the bill. Senator
Chandler stated the hearings will close
next Saturday.
