Judge Stevenson at once wrote to
Gihboney as follows: "On Monday. in
open court, you declared upon your
word as an officer of the court that you
had legal evidence which would prove
that men in high social position were

Admiral Schley bitterly for cowardice

For, as the Army and Navy journal
asks: IF this third volume is added
at Annapolis with the sanction of the

punishment was bestowed upon THIS
naval officer who will thus be charged
by the department, by indrection at
least, with being a coward and liar
and with turning his back upon the
enemy in the crisis of a great naval
battle? Turning to the records of the
Navy department they will find that
not one word of official ccnsure was
bestowed upon this recreant officer;
that, on the contrary, he received the
same recognition and reward as those
concerning whose conduct no question
has been raised, that is, commentator

Buffalo has had the Congress Of
educators of the Indian, and that Of
the National Association of colored
youth both in session this week; also
that of the Universal Peace Union.
That of the Indian educators attracts
the greatest interest. Miss Estelle
Reel. national superintendent of Indian
schools, is in charge of the work of
the congress. Its meetings attract even
greater attention than that which had
already been shown to the Indian ex-
hibit of literary, industrial and native
art work at the Exposition.

partment one day who was surrounded
by a troop of obsequious adorers, ap-
parently. They followed every look
and anticipated every unexpress-
ed wish. She looked like a duchess, no
less, and people began to gather in that
vicinity and display more interest
than even the attractions of the double
headed fish and the silver trout OF Cali
fornia seemed to warrant. There were
other ladies in the group, but people
saw only one, this elegant patrician
figure in the long black taffeta dust

~ was made from Chicago that
4. n a chemist of that city, Hugo
Jone, had found a way to
produce electricity direct from coal and
solved the problem that Edison and
other electricians had been working
on" Mr.. Jone has taken out a patent on
his discovery or invention, and certain
ly believes that he is at least close to
the solution of the problem of obtain
ing electricity on a commercial scale
direct from coal by chemical means,
if he has not actually arrived there.
Electrical engineers are. of course,
profoundly interested in Mr.. Jones
claim, but the consensus of expression
from them so far is one of doubt, If
not of entire unbelief in the COM
mercial value of his process, although
no one doubts the young investigator
and inventors good faith in the mat
ter.
For half century this problem has
been wrestled with by scientific men.

tion Of coal. Some have had partial
success. but not one has been able to
produce a battery that it would pay
any one to put on the market.
The scientists all believe that such
coal battery can yet be perfected.
Perhaps MI. Jone has done it. If so,
fame and wealth await him. But the
electricians who have been studying the
description of his patent, as given by
one of the editorial staff of the Elec-
trical World and Engineer, says that
in the Chicago mans discovery "the
electrical energy comes from chemical
action in the metals which he uses and
that heat from the coal simply assists
the action" Mr.. T. c. Martin, the editor
in chief of the Electrical World, is GER
tainly not hopeful of any economical
value of the new discovery and patent.
For the New York Tribune reports him
as having looked into them" and say
ing: This Chicago man has made a
new battery which seems to combine
the disadvantages of the two old
systems. | do not believe it will have
any considerable bearing upon the So
luton of the great electrical question,
the generation of electricity direct from
coal with the production of heat. These
attempts are praiseworthy and should
be encouraged. 1t is through them that
the difficult problem will eventually be
solved"
After all this, the public will wait
with considerable doubt to see whether
the dynamo has yet been superseded.

st. Louis special correspondence
says that the 1903 exposition in that
city in centennial commemoraton of
the Louisiana Purchase" by President
jefferson, may have no Midway. The
reason is thus set forth: When the
directors of the St. Louis Worlds Fair
visited Buffalo to dedicate the Louisi-
ana Purchase building, they studied
Buffalo's Midway with an eye to st.
Louis performances in that field. Their
train was side-tracked in the grounds,
within a stones throw of the entrance
of the Midway, and they had ample
opportunity to observe that institution
by day and by night. on several oc-
casions the directors discussed the in
f1uence which the massng of the con-
cessions had on the character of the
exhibitions and the adVisa bilty of
emitting at st. Louis some of the eX-
hibition that had become Midway fix
