COMPROMISE ON ARMY BILL
REPUBLICAN SENATORS WILL
ING TO MAKE CONCESSIONS.
Think a Modification of the Bill Is
Preferable 20 An Extra Session
Hawley Blocks the Way.

Washington. Feb. 17.-There was pro-
nounced movement in the senate today
looking to a compromise on the army re-
mated with several Republican senators,
who advanced the opinion that a compro-
mise was preferable to an extra session
of congress. The Cockrell bill was ac-
cepted by them as the first advance ON
the part of the Democrats toward an un-
derstanding. and many felt that they
would go farther i'm that direction in case
the Republicans should indicate a willing
ness to meet them half way. The move
ment grew wholly out of the desire TO
avoid a special session and was partlcl-
pated in by some of the Republican lead

attention of Senator Hawley, chairman
of the committee on military affairs, he
gave il no countenance whatever. declar-
ing that he was not willing to yield any
thing. He was critical of the Cockrell
bill, finding especial fault with its pro-
visions for natives of the new possessions
in the American army. He announced MS
purpose to stand by his notice to call up
the bill reported by the Republican MEM
bers and insist upon consideration on that
basis and that only.
Other Republican members OF the COM
mittee did not appear so decided: senator
Proctor, who does not support the house
bill. Is expected to return TO the city to-
morrow and there will then be majority
of the committee antagonistic 10 the BILL.
The Democratic senators generally as
sumo an appearance of indifference. but
some concessions. 1t may be stated.
therefore, that while no compromise has
been reached, good progress has been
made toward reaching one.

FRENCH PRESS COMMENT.
Weaknesses of the Late President
Pointed Out.

Paris. Feb. 17.-All the morning news
papers contain comments upon the
sudden death of President Faure last
night These comments are apparently
dictated rather by each particular jour
nails peculiar views of the political sit
utation than by any other considera-
ton. Few of them find time to dwell
upon the best points of the character
of the late president, but many of them
do not hesitate to call attention to his
weaknesses.
The Echo de Paris, in the course of
an eulogistic obituary, points out that
mony caused smiles, his attitude was
always excellent. 1t adds: THE
French people will render the dead
chief of a state a tribute of homage and
respect and will express sincere regret
at his tomb"
The Journal says: The judgment
will be honor to his memory.
The Gaulois says: Those who knew
NJ. Faure will mourn him. He was a

see this former workman bear himself

SCIENTIFIC Discoveries.
Some Times Luck Takes the Place of
Research.

1t has frequently happened in the his
tory of invention that an ordinary
workman has stumbled upon some
great discovery which much cleverer
men have been puzzling over for years.
At one time says the London Stand
ard, all the gum used in England was
prepared by an expensive process from
gum arabic. One night a big starch
factory in Dublin took fire, and great
puddles of burnt starch and warer
were formed in the road way. A tipsy
printer fell into one of these puddles,
and the next morning the mans clothes
We're stuck tight together as if glued.
Being a printer, the man knew the
value of gum, and he began expert
menting by scorching starch on fire
shovel He found it made excellent gum
and it was this incident that enabled
British postage stamps to be produced
in an adhesive form.
The art of photography was discovered
through very curious accident The
Waterman at a theater in Munich was
going his rounds after a triumphant
performance of Don Juan" He had in
his hand a polished milestone for
sharpening razors, ticket stamp still
moistened with printing ink, and
check for his weekly salary. A gust OF
wind swept the check from the tables
on which he placed it, and then deposit
ed it in basin filled with water. The
man dried the paper as well as he could
and weighted it down with the whet-
stone, on which he had a moment be-
fore carelessly placed the printing
stamp. The next morning, when he re-
turned to his room, he was amazed TO
find the letters of the stamp clearly
printed on the check. The idea occur
red to him that he might by some such
means simplify his work of copying the
| songs of the chorus and purchasing a
large stone, Senefelder-such was his
name-began making experiment, and
before long he had discovered the art
of lithography, which has lately been
the subject of a centenary celebration.
