TX" RAY IN A DAMAGE SUIT.
Roentgen's Discovery in Court for the
First Time.

Roentgen's Discovery in Court for the
First Time.
New York, Nov. 10. "X" rays
were used in court for the first time in
this country in damage suit before a
jury in the Brooklyn superior court.
Martin Hutchinson, 8 years old, was
subjected to ray examination for sew
eral minutes. He was injured on
Christmas night, 1895, by being eject
ed from street car. The plaintiff
contends that the head OF the left
humerns was fractured from the boys
fall from the Car when the conductor
threw him OF.
4 dynamo was placed in front of the
jury box and near the lawyers table,
and large Crooke's tube was used.
Soon after the case had been resumed
young Hutchinson's jacket and outside
shirt were removed. The arms and
shoulders were exposed.
Before the examination the question
as to whether any possible injury
would result from the examination was
discussed. J. Stewart Ross, who rep
resents the plaintiff, insisted that a
limit as to the time Of the examination
should be set. II was decided that it
should be three minutes.
When the boy took his seat with his
left shoulder about six inches from the
Crooke's tube, he smiled at the jury
and the lawyers. DR.. William Morton
looked at the boys left shoulder
through Horoscope, and Judge John
son, who presided at the trial, stood up
and timed the proceeding. George l..
Fowler then took the Horoscope and
looked at the boy left arm and should
or until time was called.
DR.. Morton and DIR. Fowler will tell
on the stand the result of the examina-
tion. They are witnesses for the de-
fense.
Previous to that made in court there
had been examinations OF the boys
shoulder. The examinations were
made 70 show the result of the frac-
lures.

A VALUABLE CYCLOPEDlA.
Gsrsmercial Directory Of American Re
pubIics Presented TO the President.


publics Presented TO the President.
Washington, Nov. 10. - Secretary
Sherman, Minister Romero of Mexico,
and Minister Merou of Argentine, mem
bers of the executive committee Of the
bureau Of American republics, were at
the White House today and presented
the first volumn of the commercial di-
rectory of the American republics to
President Mckinley. There was con-
siderable formality about the matter,
the presentation being made in the blue
parlor. Secretary Sherman presented
the volume, saying the work was re-
garded as of such vast practical i'm
portance to the commerce of our coun-
try, as to be we'll worthy that we
should come in body to present it to
you. Upon looking through its pages
you will discern its far reaching value
as factor in disseminating general in.
formation respecting the natur;i! re-
sources, the peculiar commercial activi
ties, the varying occupations, the in
dustries and the latent capabilities Of
the countries of the Western hemis-
phere."
President Mckinley made formal
response, expressing his interest in the
work OF the bureau and the hope that
the publication would lead to closer
commercial relation between the repub-
lies of America. With the volume was
transmitted letter to the president
from Joseph P. Smith, director of the
bureau, in which he stated the objects
of the publication. 1t is commercial
cyclopedia OF the Western hemisphere,
intended to furnish information for the
benefit of merchants and agriculturists.
President Mckinley has been congratu-
lated from time to time during the
progress of the work, and has shown
great interest in it.

AGAINST THE CANAL.
Sure to Be Much Oppositson at the
Coming Session.

Washington. Nov. 16.-One Of the
prominent measures which will be
brought before congress at the coming
session is the consideration Of the Mic
aragua canal. From the present out
look II 10 probable that no action will
be taken, and that fipal vote on the
bill will not be reached. The main
proposition which is now pending is the
! construction Of the canal by COM
pany, the bonds Of which to the amount
OF $40, 0,000,0 shall be guaranteed by
the government.
II is not strange, in view Of the re-
cent complications which have arisen,
that members Of congress hesitate about
going into scheme involving any such
guarantee. II may mean that the Uni
ted States will not only pay the interest,
but, in the end, will be compelled to
pay the principal Of these bonds. There
is also fear Of scheme or trick by some
undcrhanded and underground meth
DDS. People do not care to be entangled
with concern which is operating for
its own profit. Many men would gladly
vote for the building Of the Nicaragua
canal IL the United States would have
absolute control, and IL it was assured
that it could be built for 800, 900. 900,
but, as the matter stands now, it is
very doubtful whether the canal can be
built for that amount, and 1t Is also
doubtful whether the company which
n,,,na tha cnuaaaa,aYa mill ha ohIa 20
carry out the plans and purposes of the
bill which has long been pending before
congress.
II is we'll known that the greatest
benefits that would come from building
the canal would accrue first to the At
lantic coast--New York and New Eng
land-then the Gulf states, next the
Pacific states, and following, possibly
the states bordering on the Mississippi
river. which would chip their products
to the Pacific coast by way of the Mic
aragua canal. 1t must be acknowl-
edged that the interior states would de-
rive little benefit, and is it not to be
wondered at that their representatives
hesitate about them embarking in any
such undertaking. Even big Tom
Reed, the speaker of the house, hailing
from Maine, great maritime state,
hesitates about putting the seal OF his
approval, or, in other words, allowing
the Nicaragua canal bill to come before
the house, when it involves such vast
expenditure from the United States
treasury.
These are the reasons that will pre-
vent the consideration and passage of
the Nicaragua canal bill at the coming
session.

ton:
"The people Of Washington inhabit

OUT FROM DAWSON.
@. G. Burns Says the Klondikers Arc
Still waiting for the Boats.

Seattle, Nov. 12. - The steamer
Homer arrived here this afternoon from
juneau. Among her passengers was
G. G. Burns, who left Dawson City,
September 2S. Burns poled up the
Yukon and came out over the Chilkoot
trail. He stated that when he left
Dawson no one had started down the
Yukon for provisions. The people
were daily expecting boats from st.
Michaels. They thought that the boats
were delayed by accident, and knew
nothing of their inability to ascend the
river. Burns said there would be no
starvation at Dawson this winter,
though rations would be limited with
some.
According to Burns, the only new
gold discoveries made this year were on
Sulphur creek, and that field was not
proving SO rich as Eldorado or Bonanza
creeks. Burns brought down with him
about So, 900 in nuggets and dust, the
result Of two years work.

THE SUPPORT OF DYEA.
San Francisco Merchants Ask That 1t
Be Closed.


BE Closed.
San Francisco, Nov. 12.-At a meet
ing of merchants and manufacturers in
terested in securing the Alaskan trade
for this city, Captain Goodall, a mem-
bsr OF the firm in which United States
Senator Perkins is interested, stated
that while supplies may be purchased
just as cheaply in this country as in
Canada, the purchaser will be obliged
to pay duty of 30 per cent to carry
them through the British possessions.
On the other hand, the opening of Dyea
and Skagusy as supports of entry will
allow him to purchase them in Victoria
and carry them on to the mines duty
free.
He declared that the establishment
of Dyea as support of entry was an
injustice to the interests of the citizens
of the United States, and had been
granted at the request of the Canadian
Pacific railroad.
1t was ordered that the joint COM
mittee of the chamber of commerce,
board of trade and Merchants Associa-
tion be instructed to draft resolutions
calling on the proper authorities to
close the SUPPORT of entry at Dyea and
to cooperate with all the cities of the
Pacific coast to that end.

Alger has approved the estimates for

mitted to Chairman Cannon, of the
house committee on appropriations
some days before the opening Of the
session. In accordance with law, the
expenditures of the different seaports

In his report to the secretary, Gen.
eral Miles makes no reference to pos
sible complications with Spain, but
says:
Although the general desire Of our
people is to maintain a condition Of
peace with all nations, and the policy
of the government is one OF good will
and peaceful relations with al others,
yet nothing could be more injurious
than to settle in condition of inse-
eurity and permit the lives OF millions
and the accumulated wealth Of many
generations to be destroyed or endanger-
ed by any foreign power with which
we are liable to come in contact, and
the general plan for defense which has
been adopted by the government should
be steadily pursued until the nation is
in the condition Of security and safety
which due regard for.self-preservation
would Demand"
