A DECEPTION UNAASNED.
An Investigation Of the Workshop Of

of Motor Fame.
PRESS AND SCIENTISTS JCia TIE HUNT.
Tubing Pound Concealed IA the Erick-
work and Ind.r the FLOOR OF the Lab
oratory which Presented Possibilities
for the Conveyance 81 Compressed Air
TO the Mysterious Motor.

Philadelphia. Jan. 20. The Press
publishes an article covering. with IL
lustrations. over a page IA space, Civ
inc the details of an investigation
made by that paper of the dlsmanlled
workshop OF the late John ". heeley
which investigation. the Press con-
tends. clearly proves the mysterious
kcclev motor to have been a dclusion
and deception. and that It's alleged
mysterious forces we're the result of
trickery In the investigation. which
has been going on for over week, the
flooring of the workshop WAS taken UP
and brick partition wall was re-
moved.
The Press was assisted in the work
by Prof Carl Herring, consulting en-
gincer OF experience; Prof Arthur W.
Gcodspeed. assistant professor of
phNsics. OF the University Of Pennsyl-
yania. Prof. Wilmer. professor of
experimental physiology at the Uni
versity Of pennsN lyania. and Or. NJ. {.

superintendent all the digging opira-
tons. Clarence Is. Moore. son of Mrs.
bloomfield Moore. was an interested
spectator. Statements i'm the article.
which are substaniiated by signed
statements OF the above named scien-
fists. are TO the effect that tubbingwas
found concealed in the brick work and
under the floor Of the laboratory.
This. il is claimed. laid bare the pos
sbilities of deception rs the tubing is
of the kind calculated to stand high
pressure and could have been used in
connection with the great steel sphere
found last week in the laboratory
which the experts intimate was used
as reservoir for compressed air or
compressed gases. and the tubing
could thus form an agency for the
forces that moved the motor in the
exhibition room. The contcution of
Mr.. Kelley and his friends for many
years has been that no tubing OF any
kind was needed 10 work this machine.
The views of Mr.. Herring and DR.. Good
speed are that the presence Of the tub
ing and sphere indicates the use OF
normal forces and possible deception
on the part of Kelley. In this view
Clarence Moore concurs and Prof. Will
mcr feels that the possibility of trick
cry confirms the diagnosis that most
psychologists make as to the delusive
charae Ter of the Kelley mystery.

FULL OF GRAVITY.
a Plain Violation OF the Treaty Charged
Against Eaff.I and the German
Consul. Rose.

Washington. Jan. 19.-The situation
in the Samoan islands is realized here
TO be full Of gravity. For some time
past there has been an exchange Of
correspondence between the three gov
crnments. parties 10 the treaty of Ber-
lin. respecting the choice of a success
sor to the late King Malietoa. and some
friction developed owing TO the strict
adherence OF the United States gov
eminent to the terms of the treaty.
The statements in the dispatch from
Apia are not regarded here as conclu-
sive for the reason that they are in
conflict with the provisions of the
treaty. If, as reported, Raffel, the
president of the municipal council at
Apia. and the German consul. Rose.
have seized the supreme court and
pronounced themselves practically die
tators. il is said here that they have
violated the treaty absolutely The
functions of the president of the mu-
nicipal council are clearly defined by
the treaty, and the last adyices re-
ceived here were TO the effect that
President Raffel had been granted
leave OF absence and intended TO visit
New Zealand. II was also understood
that his successor had been elected,
and it was thought that he was on
the way to his post.
The chief justice. under the treaty,
Is made the court OF last resort I'M
der any circumstances. and. moreover,
the treaty in terms provide distinct.
~ that in case of any dispute between
the natives themselves or between the
foreigners in Samoa that dispute shall
bc referred 70 the chief justice. and
his decision shall be final. The treaty
expresses the idea that this provision
is to guard against hostile outbreaks.
Therefore IL is scarcely believed here
that the president of the council would
thus deliberately violate the plain
treaty provision.
1t was known here that the British
and American consular officers Mt
Apia have been acting in accord in the
present involved political situation
there. and although the interests of
the United States may not be com
/ pared with those of Germany. vet
their rights under the treaty are equal
and. il may be stated. they will be
maintained.
The report that the three consuls
have joined in a provisional rccogni-
ton Of Mataafa could not be reconciled
with the open disagreement with the
terms Of the treaty as TO the choice
Of "A king that such action would in
volve. the power Of settling disputes
] OF this character being. as already
stated, solely lodged in the hands OF
the chief justice. who. by the way. il
