JAMAICA OBSERVATORY.
Prof. w. 4. Pickering Will Set Up There
. Telescope l3b Fset Long.

Telescope 13b Feet Long.
Our great satellite, the moon, will be
studied as never before this coming
winter. The astronomical observatory
of Harvard college is about to estab-
lish station on the island of Jamaica
Members of the staff of the observa-
tory are now engaged in packing the
instruments and preparing for speedy
departure. These instruments have
been carefully tested during the past
summer at Cambridge. The principal
instrument which will be used in ia
maica will be long-f focus horizontal
refractor, with 12-inch aperture and
4 focal length of 1875 feet. This type Of
telescope is stationary, with mirror
at tbs end rejecting any portion OF
the 81! which it is desired to observe
through hhe tube to the eyepiece. The
telescope will be used visually and for
photographic purposes. Assistant
Professor w. H. Pickering, who will
be in charge Of the Jamaica station
for the present. has lately succeeded in
securing with this instrument the
smallest object, angularly measured,
ever obtained on Photographic plate.
This was perfectly clear image only
one second in diameter OF a star. How
small this is may be partially con-
ceived when one realizes that a spot an
inch in diameter held at distance Of
twenty inches from the eye has a d.
ameter Of 10000 seconds. Prof. Pick
ering will endeavor to complete the
visual observations of the moon which
have already brought him so much
fame, he having demonstrated that
there are active volcanoes and some
form Of vegetation there, and having
devoted much time to the important
question OF the existence OF an atmos-
phere on our satellite. Beside he will
continue his work on the elliptical
forms Of the disks Of Jupiters satel-
htes, which has attracted great atten-
mon. The Importance Of the work
which will be done at Jamaica may be
appreciated when one realizes that the
minuteness Of detail with which the
new telescope will take photographs
will enable the station to take images
OF double stars, clearly separated.
where they now overlap on a plate.
The reason for going to Jamaica is
that the advantages are almost equal
TO those Of Arequipa, while the ease
Of access makes up for whatever dis
advantages may exist, Jamaica being
snly hve days from Boston, while Are
Sllipa is about a month distant

Row Becomes
Bloody.

NEW YORK, Sept 12.--Acrording to
advices from Colombia received by the
Tribune, both sides are claiming vic
tories. Arturo de Brigard, Colombian
Consul General here. has received a
communication from General Cordova.
Government of the Department of
Cauca. He tells of "a Government vic
tory at Puenta Pedra over the rebel
forces of General Barriga, and also Of
the insurgent leader General Mariana.
at La Piedras. In this engagement,
General Cordova says, the revolution
lists lost 200 men. General Eduardo
Nasquez, of the Government army was
also killed In this battle. The latter
was one OF the wealthiest and most in
fluential citizens of Antigua Accord
ing to official advices the rebels suf-
fered another defeat at Ell Helechal
Department Of Santander, in which
one of their chiefs was killed and an
other taken prisoner.
General Cordova also writes that an
invasion from Ecuador is feared. He
charges that the President of Ecuador
is supplying arms and ammunition to
the revolutionists commanded by Cen
tIdl tNbSdS lpI NHlS lUuSt. ne 'rbN =
ernor of Cauca adds
In short time we shall have nearly
twenty thousand men under arms in
this department"
The information that came to the
local agents of the rebellion however,
gave an entirely different aspect to the
state of affairs. This news tells of n
battle fought at Macueque, Depart
ment of Boyaca, which lasted several
days. The Government division nnder
General Vasquez, to the number of
5000, attacked the strongly intrenched
force of one thousand rebels command
ed by General Benito Hernandez, with
the result that the former were repulsed
with great loss. Besides this the in
surgents secured ten pack mules. car
rying 10000 cartridges. The scene OF
this engagement is an excellent strate-
gic point and It is said that it will re-
quire an army Of more than FIVE thou
sand to dislodge the Liberals from their
stronghold. IL Is not definitely known
how many were killed and wounded
but the number is said to have been
large.
General Tribe Tribe is now said to
be in Santander with 5000 men. His
plan is to engage the Government forces
from the front, while General Herman
deZ and another command under Cen
eral Ardilla from Ocan attack from the
rear, thus practically surrounding the
principal detachment of the Govern
ment. General Tribe Tribe has lately
been joined by General Rodriguez, who
, sailed from here a short time ago on
the steamer Maracaibo.

WASHINGTON, Sept. Fit had been

not until after II O'Clock Were all the 400
seats reserved for the public taken pos

in which the court is to sit in some con
fusion. The building is new and while
the laborers had completed their prepar-
atioLs for the court, the cleaners We're
engaged in their work up to almost the
hour for the arrival of the court. The

FIGHT FOR
LAND LAWS
A Representative
May be Sent to
Capital.

One of the most important OF the
missions of Secretary Cooper at the
capital will be the explanation to the
Department of the Interior of the scope
and purpose of the land laws under
which the public domain Is now held.
and disposed of, here. In addition to
the facts contained in the report of the
Territory, which will bear upon these
matters, it is the expectation of the
members of the government that Secre-
tary Cooper will be called upon to show
all that is of Importance in the dit
ferences between the local system and
that Of the United States at large.
So great has become the fear here
that the land laws of the United States
will be extended in their entirety, that
there is a growing belief that 1t would
be to the interest of the Territory to
have at Washington a man versed in
the laws Of the Territory, to show just
what is the local status, why the sysN
tenn here is so perfectly applicable to
the islands, and what hardship would
be wrought by the extension OF the laws
of the United States at this time There
is now on foot privately plan which
may be followed, to secure such rep
resentation. During last winter j. X.
Brown. who was then the commissioner,
was in Washington, and met many of
the men who will have to do with any
change which may be effected during
the coming session of Congress.
Those who are interested in the lands
Of Hawaii for the Hawaiians, are work
ing to have either Mr.. Brown, or Il. S.
Boyd, the present commissioner, sent
on to Washington. They are of opin-
| ion that in the event of the application
/ of the homestead laws. there would be
more of the newcomers, who would be
in the business of taking up lands only
for the purpose Of selling them again,
than Of the native Hawaiians who
would take up the public acres. 1t is
understood that the latest communica-
tions from Washington indicate that
there is some feeling there that the
form Of the Homestead lease, which Is
prominently the plan to be of service
to the Hawaiians is not understood,
The local authorities feel that this is
one of the most vital points of the land
system here and they want to make a
hard fight for its continuance.
1t Is not expected that Secretary
Cooper will stay in Washington long
enough to be of much service in this
matter further than to explain the con-
ditions of the department, as he is ex-
pected to return here within six weeks.
This will mean that he will leave
! Washington before the converting of
Congress, and it is before the commit
tees Of that body that the fight will be
made. Delegate Wilcox is in accord
with the local authorities on this mat
ter, and it is said would welcome any
assistance that may be given to him
in the carrying out of the wishes OF
the people here as to the amendation OF
the laws.
There will be several matters which
will come up before the department as
well which win be of Importance, in
Guiding the matter Of the proposed wa
ter rights in Kohala and this may
mean that there will be more than one
object in the wanting to send on a
representative of the government

TO CONNECT LAKES AND SEA.

In suggesting the possibilities Of a
canal connecting the Great Lakes and
the seaboard, Harper's Weekly gives
some interesting figures on the probable
cost OF the construction OF such q canal
and its possible revenues.
The estimated cost OF the construction
Of the canal Is about $4,000. 900. Hence the
questions win 1t pay7 This is the ans
Wer.
The present yearly traffic OF the Great
Lakes is about 10000, 900 tons. Assuming
that work on the canal VIII begin IN 1905
and the route opened to commerce In ieo8
the traffic will have increased probably to
A. O0O, 900 tons. II OF this minimum tom
mage OF 100000 or 100000 can be divert
ed the canal viii be a paying Investment
For instance, It IS believed that grain can
be carried, If competition requires, at q
reduction of 3 cents under the present
average rate Of 1-2 cents via Buffalo to
New York, or Montreal via the Welland
canal. This saving would amount TO
about 81 per ton. 1t Is proposed to charge
a toll Of 50 cents per ton, or IL cents per
bushel CThe rate through the Suez canal
is rs Cd per TOM Tonnage Is estimated
for trafific in one direction only, ana
no income is calculated from westbond
freight On this basis Of 100000 tons the
gross revenue would be 100000. The es-
innate for working and maintenance IS
$780, OOO leaving a net revenue OF Sz,OV0'VVV,
or about 4 per cent on the investment.
