A Cleveland engineer has invented a
machine for the automatic manufac-
ture of steel balls. The machine au-
tomatically forms and polishes steel
balls, which are entirely spherical, at
the rate of $1,000 a day. Cublcal
pieces of hot steel, each of which is to
be made into ball are fed into the
top of the machine one at time.
The principal parts of the machine are
a cone of steel or feet high, and a
cover Of steel which fits over it. In
the face of the cone is groove that
winds around it from the top to the
bottom, growing small as it nears the
bottom. There is another groove on
the inner surface of the cover that
matches that in the cone. The cone is
kept whirling all the time, and when
piece of steel is put in at the top, 1t
is worked downward through the spir-
al groove, which rolls il on all sides
and in all directions, and drops it out
of the bottom of the machine, a per-
feet sphere of steel. The fibers of the
steel are not cut, but instead, are pack
ed together even more tightly than
when cut from the rod.-Scientific

(ISY Inc Associated lTess.)
Washington, March 16.-The bill estab-
fishing civil government in Porto Rico

subcommittee of the House Committee
on Insular Affairs. In addition to the
features already published the committee

peal franchises at will, and also the right
to purchase such franchises. 1t prohibits

ing into the hands of big corporation.
Following the law in this country it also
provides that banks procuring title to

GERMANY's REPLY TO KRUGER.
Courteous Explanation of Why She Cannot Act
in the Matter
(By The Associated Press. }

(By The Associated Press.)
Pretoria, March 14.--(Via Lourenzo
Marques Thursday, March 15.)-The Ger
man Consul has handed the following
dispatch to President Kruger:
THE Government of Germany and the
Empire vii be glad and ready to assisl
in friendly mediations as soon as the
fundamental conditions to such are ap-
parent, as soon as it is demonstrated that
both opponents desire mediation. Wheth-
er the desire already exists on the Brit
ish side can be found by the republics on
direct inquiry at London or through the
good offices of a third government which
has no important interests of its own to
consider in South Africa. The latter as
sumption is qualified by the number of
nations in and outside Europe but not
with Germany. Any such step of the pres
ent German Government would awaken
suspicious and have other than human
itarian view. The increased mistrust
thereby engendered would not promote
a peaceable settlement. The request OF
the republics to transmit their appeal for
mediation TO the Austro- Hungarian and
Swiss Governments whose interests are
represented by the German Consulate, has
been Immediately fulfilled"

THE EXPENSES OF swANsoN's CONTEST
Bill to Pay Them Meets With Opposition and
is Withdrawn.
(By The Associated Press. J


Washington, March 16.--In the House
today Saturday, March oath, was set
aside for paying tribute to the memory
of the late Representative Sidney p.
Epes, of Virginia
This was the first private pension bill
day in the House under the new rule, and
after some minor business the House
went into committee of the whole to con
slider private claim bills. The first called
up was bill to pay Represent lt;vc
Claude A. Swanson, of Virginia, $1,69,
the amount of expenses incurred by him
in connection with his contest in excess
of the So 0G0 allowed by law.
Mr.. Swanson's seat was contested in
the last Congress, but the House twice
refused to consider the case.
Mr.. Otey (Va), urged precedents in
support of the claim. Mr.. Crumpacker
Und), opposed the bill failing TO see
any reason to make an exception to the
policy in such cases. Some of the Demo-
Gratis. he said, had favored the abolition
of any allowance on the ground that the
allowance to contestants fostcred COR
tests but he thought the law SHOULD
stand until there were fair electors in
the South. But a bad precedent should
not be made by paying this lain in
excess of 81 600.
Mr.. Burke (Texas), supported the
claim. He thought in all justice the OK
pense to which Mr. Swanson had been
put should be refunded to him. He de-
nounced the law which gave contestants
s., 600 whether they were seated or not.

There is a good deal of curiosity and
inquiry on the fact that the rain which
fell this morning was of a dark slaty
color. The day was an unusually dark
and forbidding one, and the rain being
colored as it was has caused a good
deal of discussion. Reports from several
sections of the county show that the rain
fall was generally of this color. Some
of the "cullud bredren' are disposed to
think that it is pertentous of coming

meet it directly with the hanging at

CHINIaUAy NOT WHAT HE SEEMS,
Supposed Manufacturers Agent BE-

Manufacturcr's Agent BE-
lieved to BE II Chicago Detective.
Some remark has been occasioned about
the city hall as to the detail and complete
ness with which Charles Chiniquay gave his
testimony relative to his attempt to secure
the blind contract for his firm, which was
alleged to be the Bostwick- Burgess company
OF Ohio. His apparent disregard of the fact
that he was making himself criminally liable
in relating his successful attempts to bride
members has also been a subject Of remark.
When the investigating committee caused
charges to be filed against the three men,
bers it was also noticed that Chiniquay was
passed over when he might easily have been
included in the information for his part in
the official corruption.
An explanation of his evident immunity
is offered by the theory that Chiniquay Is
in no respect a manufacturers agent, but
has simply been in the employ Of several
members of the board as a detective. When
Mr.. Hayward, who is virtually in charge or
the investigation, was questioned on the sub
ject he smilingly replied that he could give
out no information on the subject, but that
anyone was at liberty to draw his own con-
illusions,
