Washington, Jan. 81. Gentlemen in
ton have reason to be accurately in
formed ON the policy of the admins
tration toward Cuba, say that that
policy is in semblance as follows: At
the present moment it is felt that the
same material conditions prevail that
existed when the president sent his
last message to. congress. AT that
time it was stated that a plan OF
autonomy having been inaugurated, 1t
was the purpose of the executive
branch to give proper time for this
plan to be tried. The administration is
said to entertain the same sentiments
today. The autonomous plan was in
augurated only three weeks ago, name
ly, JAM 1, when the autonomous cab
met took Office, so it is felt that there
has not been adequate time UP to the
present moment to form any fair
Judgment as to the merits Of the plan
as a means of ameliOratiOn OF the
conditions of the island. The recent
occurrences at Havana are looked upon
as affording evidence Of discomfort
with the plan, but whether they will
be sufficient to overcome the plan itself
is not looked upon as established with
any degree of certainty for even ap-
prOXimateneSS. In the meantime,
while closely observing the progress of
the autonomous plan, the administra-
ton has adopted every precaution to
guard against any sudden emergency,
such as an uprising that will threaten
American interests. This is not ex-
Eected to occur, but if it should come,
it is said that the navy of the United
States is so disposed as to be i'm the
harbor of Havana within six hours Of
any crisis which would imperil Amer
lean interests, and in order that there
may be no delay should the emergency
arise, it is said that Consul General
direct request to the commanders of
the warships so that the vessels could
start on receipt of word from him
without delays incident to having his
request pass through the official
routine at Washington. To a great
extent the intelligent judgment of
General Lee is relied upon as to de-
termining if any emergency requires
the presence of American vessels.
This power applies solely to the ques-
ton of a tumult of a critical nature
and has no connection with the gen
eral question of Intervention for the
purpose of bringing the war to close.

PHOTOGRAPHS in DARK.
Taken Without Camera In the Light
From Sugar.

Lakeo W1Cnout camera In the Light
From Sugar.
There are many substances which
emit light when placed in darkness.
Chief among them is common brown
sugar. Any boy or girl can make
photographs without a camera and
with the light that is emitted from
brown sugar. First, you must ste
your sugar full Of sunlight. You must
make a storage battery for sunlight.
This is easily done. Merely place your
sugar on a board, or in a basin, and
lay it where the sun can shine on it all
day long. Ten hours of exposure viii
fill it full of sunlight. Next procure q
sensitive plate, being careful not to al
low any light to touch it. Carry it into
dark room; in fact. the experiment
ought to be performed at night, to in
sure the room being dark. A key,
coin, or some other small, fiat object
should be photographed.
Place your objects on the sensitive
plate and sprinkle the sugar over them
until they are buried from sight. Leave
the arrangement until morning, when a
photograph of the objects will appear
on the plate.
This is quite wonderful, but you
may make it still more so by doing
what Professor McKissick did. Pro-
feSSOr McKiSsick of Auburn (Ala-)
Polytechnic school placed his sensitive
plate in pIate-holder. This he laid on
a table in a dark room. On the plate
holder he laid a key, a dime and piece
of broken glass. On these he placed a
block of wood four inches thick. Then
he sprinkled brown sugar on top Of the
block. over all he spread a black table
cloth and left the arrangement in dark
ness over night. In the morning he
found the key, the dime and the bit Of
broken glass perfectly photographed on
the sensitive plate. Now, you will OBJ
serve that the stored rays Of light from
the sugar. in order to photograph the
objects on the plate. were compelled
first to pass through the four-ineh
block Of wood.
It will, therefore, be seen that the
light of the sugar was X-ray in it's
quality. All OF the re-transmitted light
seems to possess this quality, and at
least the experiment seems very Won
derful to the uninitiated. 1t would
lead one to think that there is no such
thing as absolute darkness. Since many
substances emit stored light, it must
follow that what we ordinarily know
as darkness must be pierced by shafts
of invisible light. Perhaps cats are
thus able to see in the dark.
