Masters Report on Liabilities for n
Joint Note.


Joint Note.
George Lucas, master in chan
Gerry, has filed his report on the
claim of John f. Bowler against
Z. G. Macfarlane and others, on
account of a judgment paid by
him on joint note of all the par.
ties to keep the Elele newspaper
going for the campaign of 1891.
He finds, 1, that Bowler has paid
out S3209.91, amount of judgment,
and 1866 for rent; 2, that Bowler
has not received any contribution
from any of the defendants on &C
count of the note; 3, that Z. @.
Macfarlane is not entitled to re-
ceive from the other signers Of the
note any contributions for out
lays made by him; 4, that the
defendants have not received any
thing, nor made any payments on
account of the note, and, 5, that
each signer of the note is only
liable for his pro rata share'of the
judgment-to wit, S3209.91 and
1878 interest. The sum of 1885,.
~ is therefore awarded against
each signer Of the note as follows:
A P Peterson Estate, e g Mac.
farlane, j. Sullivan, j W Nc.
Donald, id Tucker, Robert More,
J w Jones, A r Rowat, w G Ash
ley and John F Bowler. The
claim of E. @. Macfarlane recon.
mended for disallowance was for
S349.1l, balance due for type, etc,
furnished by him for running the
Elele newspaper.
Judge Carter will hear the re-
port on Friday. Counsel are G.
Brown and Robertson for Bowler,
Creighton for Macfarlane and the
Peterson Estate, and Thurston
& Stanley for the defendants.
1t was argued before the master
that Macfarlane and Bowler, hay
ing taken charge of the campaign,
should have paid the note out of
the common campaign fund. The
campaign was that of coalition
between the Reform and National
Reform parties to beat the Nation
al Liberal party, and large sub
scriptions were made by such Re
form leaders as s. NJ. Damon, w.
o. Smith and H. p. Baldwin.
After while the Reformers drop
ped out of the combination.

MIGHT HAVE BEEN A DICTATOR.
Gen. scott Declined TO Consider A
Proposition Affecting Mexico.

zen. scott Declined to Consider
Proposition Affecting Mexico.
IL may surprise many.readers TO learn
that overtlwcs were made to Gen. Scott
10y many Mexicans of position and by
many American officers to permanently
occupy Mexico and organize a new gov
ernment. The scheme proposed to Gen.
Scott was. in substance, this: 1t was
supposed that upon the conclusion of
a treaty of peace at least three-fourths
Of the American army would be dis
charged and that a large portion of the
officers would resign, and, with many
of the men, would enter the new army
of Mexico, and enough others would
be recruited in the United States to
make the American contingent $4,000
strong. and to this might be added n
like number Of Mexican soldiers. With
such an army it was suggested that
Mexico could be held and governed in
an orderly way, and prosperity might
be assured.
The plan contemplated a pronuncia-
mento, in which Cen Scott should de-
clare himself dictator of the republic
for a term of five years or more TO give
time for agitators to acquire pacific
habits and to learn to govern them
selves and to respect an orderly govern
ment, where the rights of property
we're not only respected, but fully pro-
iected. Already in possession of the
forts. arsenals, foundries, cities, mines
and ports of entry, with nearly all the
arms, it was not doubted that a very
general acquiescenee would follow.
Scott was invited to several conclavcs
of officers, but from the first emphat-
ically declined to enter into the plot.
lie did not purpose to change his al
legiance or his service or his flag, but
meant, he said, 70 return to the United
States. He had several reasons for this
determination. lie was essentially a
conservative thinker and was endowed
with a remarkably high sense of JUS
tice. and he had genuine contempt for
any adventure which had any flavor OF
dishonesty or bad faith about it, and
ne would not consider for moment
the project of placing an alien govern
ment over Mexico while the nation was
dominated by superior force. Had still
another consideration been needed "a
influence his course-as was not the
case. however-there was one most per
suasive consideration-his prospective
bride. awaiting his return at White
Haven home, near jefferson Barracks

nnGs -ARE uNMuZZLED.

Many dogs were noticed running the
streets yesterday and last evening with
out muzzies. The owners are liable to
be relieved Of their CANNES by the po-
lice. whose orders are to kill every dog
that runs the streets without a muzzle.
The muzzles thai are used by some per
sons for their dogs do not comply with
the ordinance. In speaking about the
matter last night a prominent official
said that the proper muzzle was made
of wire. A dog can drink easily through
this. Many Of the muzzles are nothing
more or less than a strap fastened about
the head. These straps are tied so
tight that the dog cannot drink, or else
they are so loose that they are Of no
use whatever.

RESERVES LEAVE.
THE BATTALION GOES DOWN TO
WOODLAND BEACH.
HASTINGS DID NOT
APPEAR AT NEW CASTLE TO ~
sPECT THE NAVAL DEPART
MENT OF HIS STATE.

Contrary to expectations, the battal-
ion of the Pennsylvania Reserves left
New Castle yesterday afternoon on
board the Philadelphia city ice-boats
for Woodland Beach.
Governor Hastings was looked for
during the entire morning, but he fail
ed TO put in his appearance.
The reserves did not do much exer~
cising during the morning. While ice
was being loaded on No. @ two of the
reserves fell overheard and there was a
great deal of excitement aboard. The
men were rescued by a rope being cast
to them. They were none the worse
for their unexpected plunge, and seem
ed to consider the matter a big joke.
The battalion was taken aboard the
warship Maine, where the reserves had
signal drill. After the drill the reserves
again boarded the ice-boats and they
sped off at 2 o'clock down the bay.
The first stopping point will be Wood
land Beach The Maine accompanied
the ice-boats, and will take on the re-
serves at the latter point and take them
out to sea for three-days gun prac-
tice.
The Maine is due to arrive at the
Brooklyn navy yard on July II. The
ice-boats will return with their passen-
gers to Philadelphia on Saturday.
New Castle people expected to see an
artillery drill and a parade through the
streets similar to that which the bat
talon performed last year, but their
hopes were not fulfilled.

Why RoENToeN RAYS INJURe.
Eiectrician Nicola Tesla Tells of His
Experiments.

Experiments.
1t has been known for some time That
Nicola Tesla has been making eNhaus-
tive Investigations concerning Roent-
gen rays. not alone for their use in sci.
sntific demonstration. but also for their
effects upon the human system. Tesla
has given voice to his deductions, so far
as he has determined them, in 4 long
statement of his experience with rays.
and in the course of it he makes some
announcements certain to create wide
discussions and comment in the scien-
tifc world. Summing up his expert
mental experiences, Mr.. Tesla says:
II would seem advisable, first, TO
abandon the use of bulbs containing
platinum; second. TO substitute for
them properly constructed Lanard
tubes containing pure aluminium only,
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
protective screen of aluminium sheet
or instead of this wet cloth or layer of
fluid; fourth, to make exposures alta dis
tance of at least il inches, and prefer
ably TO expose longer at a greater dis
lance.
Tesla cites several instances of the
Injurious effects of rays which have
come under his personal observation in
his laboratory, which go far to bear out
announcements of the manner in which
rays affect the system, but beyond this
he has discovered why rays have this
injurious influence, and the theory is as
novel as it is valuable. He says:
According to the evidence am OBJ
tanning. bulbs, when in action, are emit
ting a stream of small material parti-
cles. There are some experiments which
seem to indicate that these particles
start from the outer wall of the bulb;
there are others which seem to prove
that there is actual penetration of the
wall, and in the case of the thin alumni
mum windows ] have now not the least
doubt that some of the finely disin-
tegrated catholic matter is actually
forced through. These streams may be
simply projected TO a great distance,
the velocity gradually diminishing
without the formation Of any waves,
or they may give rise to the conclusions
end longitudinal waves. This for the
present consideration is entirely imma-
terial."
After his own painful experience with
the rays. rs well as their effect upon
other persons whom he had observed
Tesla comes to this conclusion as t.
their effect beyond the surface: 81
come" he says, Ito the very cOmfort
ing conclusion that no matter what the
rays are ultimately recognized 10 be
practically all their destructive energy
must spend itself on the surface of tbs
body. internal tissues being in all prob
ability safe, unless the bulb should b,
placed in very close proximity TO the
skin. or else that rays of far greater
intensity than now producible are gen
Grated. "-Electrical Review.

A number Of steamboat men from

Shore to Baltimore, is anxious to again
charter her. While on the Chesapeake
bay last year, she created a sensation
among the watermen there, and earned
the name of "The Peach Flyer" II
the Riverside should not be sold it IS
very likely that she will again go into
service for the Chesapeake company.
If the Riverside should be sold to any
of the parties now dickering for her
the company will Immediately order
another vessel and possibly two, SINH
lar to her from Roach's shipyard. The
officers at the shipyard believe that
they can improve upon the Riverside
somewhat by placing the engine and
boiler for the next boat further for
ward in the hull This would trim her
better and would enable her to run to
better advantage. The Chester ship
yard workmen. are hoping that the
packet will be sold so that work may
begin on another one.
