COURTEOUS GREETING EXCHANGED
First United States WarShip In
the Harbor Since the War
Began.

HAVANA, January 25.-The United
States battle-ship Maine, commanded
by Charles D. Sigsbee, which left Key
West, Fla, on January oath, arrived
here at IL o'clock this morning and
was saluted by the forts and war YES
sells.
Dispatches of January oath say that
the decision to send the United
States ship Maine was finally reach
ed at special meeting at the White
House this morning between the Presi-
dent, Secretary Long, Assistant Sec
retary Day, Acknowledgement McKen-
ma and General Miles, and it is strik-
ing fact that, with the exception of the
Secretary of the Navy and the Attor-
ney-General, not member of the Cab
to take this radical action.
Assistant Secretary Day said today
that the sending of the Maine to Ha-
vana means simply the resumption of
friendly naval relations with Spain.
1t is customary for naval vessels of
friendly nations to pass in and out
of the harbors of other countries with
which they are at peace, and British
and German war ships have recently
visited Havana. This is no new
move. The President has intended to
do it for some time, but heretofore
something has happened to postpone
it.
A dispatch from Havana says that
Captain General Blanco, fearful that
the rabid element of the city might at
tempt such violence, placed an extra
military guard around Consul-General
Lees Office. Many of the Americans
of the city who believe they are in
real danger have prepared their affairs
for any emergency. This news is what
gave rise to the rumor that General
Lee had been assassinated.
The Atlantic fleet now under order
of Admiral Sicard, with headquarters
at Tortugas and a telegraph address
at Key West, is made UP of the battle
ships Indiana, Iowa and Massachu-
setts, the second-class battle-ships
Maine and Texas, the monitor Terror,
the armored cruisers New York and
Brooklyn, the cruisers Detroit and
Montgomery and the torpedo-boat
Cushing, Dupont, Ericsson, Foley and
Porter, with the dynamite cruiser We
suvius and the little dispatch boat

DETECTIVE MADDERN.
En- Route to EXtradite DIR. Arthur
III. Orpen.

Detective Maddern of Auckland, n.
H., is through passenger on the Mari
posa for San Francisco whittier he goes
to take back to the scene of the killing
of Susan Harriet Campbell McCullum,
DR.. Arthur Herbert Orpen, accused of
the deed. Maddern had very hard
trip of it from Auckland and came
ashore as soon as he landed In COM
menting on the mission of Mr. Mad
dern, the New Zealand Herald speaks
as follows:
Some surprise has been expressed
that Detective Maddern has been sent
single-handed on such an important
mission, which, in the event of extra
dition being granted, will involve his
surveillance of his prisoner night and
day for 20 days at least. When Butler
was extradited three men were en-
ployed, and when eX-Detective Kirby
was brought back from Sydney, a five
days voyage, a detective, sergeant,
and constable were employed.
In referring to the family of DR.. Or
pen, the same paper prints the follow
ing:
1t is stated on the best authority that
DR.. Arthur Herbert Orpen was de-
scendent of the Orpens of Ardtully,
County Kerry, Ireland-a family of
great antiquity Robert Orpen, Esq,
appears to have resided at Killorglin,
Kerry, in 1861, while his father was a
prominent Royalist, who fell at Nase-

Eclipse Observations In India Reveal
Changes.
LICK OBSERVATORY, January "a.
"A cablegram received at Mount Ham
ilton from Professor Campbell who is
in charge of the Crocker Lick Obser-
vatory expedition at Jeur, India, states
that most satisfactory photographs Of
the corona were obtained with three
different telescopes, one with tele-
scope forty feet long and two others
with five and three foot telescopes
He also reports that the great equa-
torial extension of the corona which
formed such a conspicuous feature Of
the eclipse of January, 1882 has again
been photographed.
He also satisfactorily photographed
the changes in the solar spectrum with
the aid of one of the spectroscopes and
probably obtained successful photos of
the reversing layer
The vapors of certain incandescent
matter in the lower region of the suns
atmosphere form comparatively thin
stratum in more elevated region
called the reversing layer. Certain of
the rays of light from the lower re-
gions of the suns atmosphere are alb
sorbed in passing through this stratum
and the absence of these rays Is indi-
Gated by the presence CT dark lines in
the solar spectrum. 1t is this revers-
ing layer that has probably been pho
tographed by the Lick Observatory
party.

session of the Board, DR. Alvarez said
that while at Berlin, he was shown the
of a number of patients
under the serum treatment and that he
with others investigating various alleg
ed cures could not notice that any
progress in the directing of eradicating
the disease in the individual cases was
being made. The medical men of Ba-
gotta had at one time been very en-
thusiastic over this treatment, but the
reaction in consequence of disappoint
ment was heavy, as shown by the posi-
tive statements in the translation.

Japan Has Large Fleet Now In Chinese
Waters.


Waters.
LONDON, January 21.-The st.
James Gazette this afternoon, com
menting upon the dispatch from Yo-
kohama saying that a fleet of nine
Japanese war ships will leave Japan
waters, says:
Japan is prepared for war. That in
nutshell is the news from Yoko-
hama today, and it is really the first
news from Japan since the beginning
of the Chinese crisis. 1t was obvious
that the Japanese Government had
stopped telegraphic communication,
which it never does except when mob
ilizing the army or navy. That is pre-
cisely what it has been doing.
1t is understood that the destination
Of the feet is Wei-hai-wei, and there
is no doubt that the movement means
that the status quo in China, SO far as
Manchuria and Korea are concerned,
shall not be altered by Russia or any
combination of Russia's allies in de-
fiance of Great Britain and Japan. So
long as the defenders policy is equal
ity of opportunity in China, they are
in a position to enforce their claims
The Gazette says:
even with Great Britain a mere
sympathetic Onlooker it is probable
that Japan could finish off all the
Russian and German war ships east Of
the Suez in short order. Great Brit
ain, even including the Powerful, has
not a vessel in the North Pacific cap
able of standing in battle line again

respondent of the Herald. The only
active steps which the Administration
will probably take in the matter will

American ships entering Kiaochau and
such other ports in China as may be
seized in the future by Russia or Jap
