FOR NEWSPAPER PRESSES.
Electrical Device for Controlling
Speed and Stopping InstantaneOusly.

CHICAGO, March 15.-The application of
electricity az the motive power OF a news
paper press in such a manner that the
speed can be regulated at any time has
been demonstrated for the first time 10 be
a complete success and tonight part of the
edition of one of Chicago'S dailies was run
off on q press driven and governed in the
manner above stated. Mr. Irving j. Stone
mechanical superintendent of the newspa-
per in question, has just perfected an cleo
trical device by means or which the speed
of a newspaper press can be controlled and
placed anywhere from To 100 revolutions
per minute. By a.series of six pneumatic
motor controllers, which are distributed
around the press in different locations. the
operator can increase or decrease the speed
OF, stop the press entirely at will There
are also six automatic controllers through
out the press which, should the paper
break either before entering the press, on
its way through or after entering the fold
ers bring the press 20 an immediate stand
still. Mr.. Stone also added a device for
carrying the paper into the press controlled
by compressed air by means of which a
fresh roll of paper can be introduced into
the press without the press coming TO an
absolute stop.

DIAMONDS MANUFACTURED.
The Genuine Article Made by n Ger
man Out of Coal and Iron Chips.

WASHINGTON. March 15.-Chemists
have recently, and in public, made actual
diamonds, comparable in every respect,
save one that of size, with natures most
valuable product. But the crystals so man.
ufactured have, while true diamonds, been
so microscopic in proportions as to be of
no commercial value. Now however,
United States Consul Germain, at Zurich,
reports to the State Department that Mr..
L. Moyatt claims to have discovered pro-
cess by which diamonds Of larger dimen-
sions may be procured. In principle his
process is similar to one already used-that
is, to crystalline carbon out Of iron and steel
by means OF high pressure and high temper
ature Yet there is an Improvement in the
technical operation. Pulverized coal, iron
chips and liquid carbonic acid are inclosed lii
a strong steel tube, Theoretically sealed anu
subject to an electric current between two
terminals in the ends of the tube. The iron,
liquifieS, is saturated by part of the pulver-
lied coal and at the same time the liquid
carbonic acid evaporates, thereby creating
enormous pressure on the liquid iron ana
coal. This pressure considerably increases
the dissolution of the coal in the liquid iron
While the mixture is cooling the carbon
crystalliZes partly in the form of real dia-
monds and partly in the form of similar
stones. These crystals released from
the ingot by dissolviDg the iron in diluted
muratic acid. The mixture by this method
remains under high pressure during the
operation of the electric current.

Britain before the world as the leader in
the suppression OF little nation which has
undertaken to relieve a smaller and de-
fenseless neighbor from the outrages which
are always associated with Turkish rule.
There have been other occasions when the
British people have had occasion TO ex-
plain the course which their government
has pursued. but this effort to suppress a
people I'm the interest OF a rule which is
abhorred by the civilized world is sure TO
rouse the British masses to expression
OF tho greatest indignation and sense of
humiliation. 1t is possible that the present
Ministry. which swept into power recently
with such an overwhelming majority i'm the
House of Commons, would be overwhelmed
If an election were held now. With every
thing else in the way OF humiliation in
this affair il appears that the British Min
istry has been pulled into this shame by
Russia and Germany.

THE PRESIDENTS EXAMPLE.

The President seems TO have surprised
Congress by sending in his message yester-
day, the day of assembling and of the or
ganization of the House. He IS very much
in earnest, and believes that no day should
be lost which can be employed in putting
the country upon better business basis
and the treasury system of SURPRISES
rather than deficits. Three and half years
of deficits the President regards as an evil
which every patriotic man in Congress
should be as earnest TO bring TO an end by
adequate legislation as is he. vast ma
jority of the people. whether they did or did
not vote for President Mckinley, are in
favor of change in the revenue policy
They may not fully accept the legislative
remedy of the President and his party in
the House, but between that and a law
which does not furnish the government
sufficient revenue there can be no preteXt
to waiver. So long as the receipts OF the
treasury are running at the rate of So
900, 900 a year behind current expenditures,
confidence cannot fully return 10 business
and industry. When the finances of the
government depend upon loans, not au-
thorized by an existing Congress. to prevent
a suspension of payments of the current ex-
penses of carrying the mails, of paying
pensions and otherwise keeping the wheels
of government i'm motion. there should not
be a score of men in Congress so ignorant
or so Indifferent that they can, under any
pretext. permit themselves to be response
BILE for the extension of this condition bor-
dering on bankruptcy.
in a few words and sets forth the remedy
Whatever else can said of ii, ii is a
direct remedy-the only adequate one-an
increase of the duties on imports. He does
not talk of temporary loans or of banking
expedients. He urges the raising of revS
enues. He does not give the details of a
plan, further than that the duties be so
laid as to afford revenue and at the same
time give home labor and capital the adj
vantage in the home market.
The mass of the people, if they had an
opportunity, would entreat Congress to act
that with the enactment of the ways and
means tariff bill the drain upon bond sales
to fill the treasury would be stopped and
confidence would come from the improved
conditions which would bring to industry
and business better DAYS.

WEAK EXPERIMENTATION.

That hundreds OF people are sending tele-
grams to Governor Bradley. of Kentucky.
to save Jackson from the gallows can only
be accounted for on the ground that his
crime is one of the most revolving on rec
ord. In New York and other States muir
derers quietly executed, but executives
are no longer buried with kilograms ask
ing a Communication of sentence. If shock
ing case of murder in New York were
handled as Jackson's case has been ii is
probable that some of the well-meaning
but nevertheless thoughtless people would
be sending kilograms TO the Governor of
that State. Jackson should be hanged when
the date arrives. There can be no doubt of
his guilt. His crime is cool, premeditated
murder. for which there is not an incident
to relieve the depravity of the murderer.
He should be hanged not so much as pun
ishment as warning and vindication of
the law. His crime is known, in its de-
tails, to the whole country. The penalty for
the crime is fixed by law. Permit any
mawkish sentimentalism to prevent the ex-
ecution of the murderer and the impression,
if not the conviction. will find Judgment in
the public. mind that the death penalty is
farce. From such an impression two evils
will flow-first, that if the death penalty is
too severe punishment for murder. then
murder is not the great and certainly not
the dangerous crime it has been regarded:
second. that if the officers of the law will
not impose what the mass of people believe
to be the natural and adequate penalty for
murder, then the people will invoke lynch
LAWN fact, have done it in thousands of
cases already because murderers, by legal
technicalties or executive weakness, have
been rescued from the galows.
The effect which the combining of a man
guilty of the appalling crime for which
Jackson is under sentence with other con-
victs for life is degrading. Men may COM
nit manslaughter in a moment of passion
or when drinking and yet not be hardened
criminals; but the crime proved against
Jackson is one of most unusual depravity.
Snatch such from the gallows to
which the law has consigned him and place
him with the other convicts in a state pris
on, marching TO meals with them. mingling
