Mid Lentcn masquoraders were more disposed

raphy. Observations Of comets are also In order.
The determination OF the absolute position of a
reasonably large list Of fundamental stars and
OF such other stars as are needed points OF
reference by observers of planets or comets, or
by those engaged in geodetic operations TO
these tasks he would add limited amount or
stellar spectroscopy, inasmuch as the field TO be
covered is too large for the outside institutions
at least for some years to come. Professor
Young also favors a more prompt reduction and
publication of data
Professor Woodward, OF Columbia, enumer-
ates very much the same branches of work that
the Princeton expert names, and adds susges-
ton as to the management OF the observatory.
He advises the formation of a Board of Regents,
like that Of the Smithsonian made up partly
from astronomers and physicists in civil life and
partly from members of Congress Professor
Fuertes thinks il would be entirely feasible to
conduct all kinds of astronomical work at the
National Observatory. but he particularly urges
the enlargement of the list OF observations Of
positions for surveyors, and such inquiries as
would be of service to meteorological students,
Professor Elkns lays special stress on the de
STABILITY of furnishing the observatory with
good Photographic equipment. Professor Todd
advocates a large number OF researches specih-
cally, among which are Photographic and spec
troscopic studies Of the sun, its spots, facui@
and reversing layer; the permanency OF the
characteristic lines of the solar spectrum, which
Lockyer declares are changing periodically and
magnetic observations
These up-to-dat hints what one might eX-
pect from some of the most active and sagacious
devotees of astronomical science in the world.
The movement here represented has now gained
such impetus that its influence is likely to be fet
at Washington in the near future. 1t is doubtful
whether Congress will make change in the
control of the National Observatory next winter
in time TO provide especially for a thorough
study of the total eclipse of the sun in May,
1900 But it is probable that if the scientists of
the country carry their point with the legislative
branch of the Government. they will be equally
successful with the Executive, and Will secure
for the new head Of the observatory man who
will not only be well qualified for his work, but
will also cooperate heartily with the men who
are making other observa tories in this country
famous for substantial results.

Washington, July 1.-THE mission OF
General Bates to the Sulu archipelago for
conference with tho sultan. as reported
from Manila, is OF considerable Importance
as bearing upon the future policy of the
United States toward tho Philippines. He
undertakes the mission upon the recon-
mendation OF the peace commission re-
Gently approved by the Washington adj
minlstration. The object of the mission
ing American sovereignty over this is
land, with the understanding that the
present form of government which prevails
there will not be interfcred with in any
way. In other words, the island of Sulu
Is to have government in the full
sense OF the word. This is supposed to
be indicative of the policy the admin
istration has In view for other parts of
the island which will peacefully acknowl
edge the sovereignty of the United States
Concerning the report from Manila that
General Bates will carry with him $40,
600 of Mexican money as a gift for the
sultan. the authorities are somewhat
mysterious. but they deny that this
amount is to be offered to him as brlbe
All that they will say officially is that
the Spanish government paid the sultan
certain annuities and General Bates has
instructions which contemplate n con-
tinuance of the annuities. which will be
paid out of the revenues of the island, 1t
is said that II the sultan accepts Ameri
can sovereignty over the group, agreeing
to continuously fly the American flag and
tain order and suppress piracy. the local
administration of this island Will ret
main unchanged. The sultan win retain
possession OF the pearl fishing and the
island trade. The report that the sultan
is to be paid 600 in the way of tribute
or as an evidence OF good will as pre-
liminary to the negotiation to be under
taken by General Gates has occasloned
considerable criticism In public quarters
here, but the administration officials In
slst that when they are at liberty TO tell
nil of the actual facts in the case their
action will be approved. There Is no doubt
that the practice of paying tribute to
savagery or even OF keeping UP the an
nuties which Spain is supposed to have
paid the Sulus in order to preserve peace
will probably be condemned in many quar-
tiers. This European method of paying
hush money" to barbarians has always
been repugnant to Americans, and the
coming congress will doubtless have a
good deal to say about the subject should
1t transpire that the administration is
using money to establish order in any part
of the Philippines.
