| TO these new elements the old idea
chung for a time. Oxygen was named
by Its discoverer dephllgisticated air.
1t lacked phlogiston the fancied fire
element. and sought it w.lh eager an.
petite in whatever it touched. Nit
rogen was called phlogisticated air.
1t was believed to be saturated with
phlogiston and, therefore, fatal to
flame. While oxygen combined
briskly with all the elem ents, nitrogen
refused to combine at all except under
great provocation. Though intimate
" mingled in the atmosphere, these
elements were as unlike in character
as two substances well could be.
No long time passed before third
substance was found in the atmos-
phere, this time not a chemical ele-
nssent, but the compound gas, carbonic
acid. While not great in quantity it
proved to be indispensable in quality,
since all the world of living things is
dependent upon it for existence. In

be no life at all, and the earth would
be a dead and barren expanse. For

designated by the executive committee.
After the meeting of the board the new
ly elected executive committee spent sew
eral hours in conference with DR.. Gill
man. The latter's acceptance of the Office
of president was not an unreserved one.
and he made this point perfectly clear to
the trustees at the meeting yesterday. He
said that he could not tell yet whether

Baltimore to Washington or not. because
matters were in such an uncertain state.
1t is expected that he will remain presi

tion is completed.
President Charles D. Walcott Di-
rector of the Geological Survey and sec
retary Of the institution, said yesterday

ent. II is expected that the house on X

CUBAN TARIFF CONCESSIONS.
Indirect subsidy Proposed to Presi-
dent RoOseyeIt

An indirect subsidy solution of the Gu
ban tariff concessions controversy was
proposed to President Roosevelt yester-
day by Mr.. Hayward Leavitt, one of the
most prominent beet sugar growers of
Nebraska, and Mr.. J. ID. Hill, a cane
sugar raiser of Louisiana.
They entered vigorous protest against
reduction, and then suggested that the
tariff schedule remain as at present. but
that a rebate shall be made to the Cuban
Government and through it to the Cuban
planters.
Mr.. Leavitt argued that relief would
thus be sure to go direct to the planter
instead of to the Sugar Trust. as the in
dependent cane and beet sugar raisers
say will be the case IL the tariff is re-
duced.
The plan is practically a subsidy sys-
TEN, inasmuch the Government would
bear the expense.
Resolutions adopted by the legislative
assembly of Porto Rico, protesting
against any tariff reductions on Cuban
sugar or tobacco, were submitted to Con
gress yesterday.
