COLLEGE BOAT RACES.
Cornell Wins ON Lake Cayuga and
PennsylVnnia on the SchuyIkilI.

Ithaca, n. Y, May 3l.-Cornell
easily won the triangular eight-oared
boat race on Lake Cayuga yesterday.
Syracuse finished second, over thrc !.
lengths behind the winner, and Har-
wards Newell club eight was beaten
by more than four boat lengths. Corn
nell covered the two miles in 1O:4S.
Owing to rough water the race was
postponed for two hours. The obser-
vation train pulled out to start about
5:15 o'clock, but it was 1920 before
the crews took the positions and re-
ceived the word from Referee Bran
dagee.
The Ithacans worked easily all the
time and were fresh at the finish.
Two or three of the Syracuse oars
men were exhausted. Harvard's men
were less fatigued.
Cornell's lead was taken at the
start and held to the finish. Syracuse
followed pluckily for a half-mile, but
gradually gave up, nursing her
strength for the final squirt with Har-
ward, but keeping in second place
throughout.
Philadelphia, May 31.-The Univer-
sity of Pennsylvania won the Junior
varsity boat race from Colombia and
Cornell on Schuyllill river in Fair
mount park, Friday afternoon. CO.
lumbia was two lengths behind Penr-
sylyania at the finish and Cornell was
five lengths to the rear of Columbia.
The course was one and a half miles
straight away, and Pennsylvania 3
time was S:4s. Considering the con-
ditionS the race was a good one 4
strong wind blew directly up the
course, which made the water chop
py. Large crowds lined both shores,
and there was much enthusiasm over
the home team carrying its colors to
victory.

Oklahoma City, o. T., May 30.-The
unprecedented rains of the past three
days in the western half of Oklahoma
are causing serious floods. The
Washita river rose nearly two feet
and is still coming up. The Rock
Island track between Anadarko and
Lawton was washed out. At FL Reno,
where the North Canadian river is at
the highest point ever known and
still rising, the bridge has been
washed out. The damage to crops and

DEADLIEST WAR ENGINE.
RumOrs About n Wireless, CrewIess
and Essily DirigibIe Submarine
Internal Machine,

A rumor is current that the British
government is on the eve of com
pleting the purchase of a submarine
topedo boat which will prove the
deadliest engine of var ever invent
ed. There are several types of sub
marine boats familiar to naval con-
struction. We have the craft de-
signed to be navigated by the agency
of crew, the Whitehead automobile
torpedo, which contains no human
crews, but is fitted up with a mechan-
ical contrivance for motive and steer
ing power, and other mechanically
controlled automobile destroyers of
the Brennan and Sims Edison pat
terms.
Some of these craft, once started,
are no longer under the influence of
the person who discharges them, and
are lost. Others, steered by wires,
can be recovered with ease, and will
do the work of submergible boat
But the dangers of a wire-steered
torpedo are many. 1t has only linn
tied field of operation, and its wires
frequently entangle and snap. This
new torpedo, however, can be piloted
from a base by means of wireless
electrical impulse sent through the
water to receiver, fixed up in the
torpedo and attuned to the pitch of
that of the transmitter. No cleo
trical influence can interfere with
the impulse generated, and, provided
that there is sufficient motive power
in the torpedo, the unseen foe can
follow a ship like shark and can be
made to strike it and explode at any
moment.
Control Is so perfect that steering
and maneuvering can be accomplished
by simply pressing a button. The
new vessel has many marked advan-
tageS over the submarine boat. The
utmost speed of submarine is three
knots an hour. If she exploded a
ship at anchor she could not get
away in time to avoid her own de-
struction. We learn that the new
invention contains nothing but her
engine power chamber, steering gear
and explosive head. She is very small
and built for great speed. In running
she maintains an average depth of
ten feet, the striking distance in
submarine warfare.-London Ex-

speaking of the BRAIN" said a WELL
known neurologist the other day, "on0
of its most striking peculiarities is
that in the soundest sleep of which we
are capable Some part of the brain or
ganism takes upon itself the duty OF
measuring time.
you may sleep your soundest, sweet
est sleep and be awakened suddenly out
of it. Almost your first mental
prompting is that of time; there is an
involuntary attempt on the part of the
brain to tell you just how long you
have been asleep. You will get some
idea of the time, too; you can make a
pretty intelligent guess as to whether
it is nearer IL o'clock than it is to J
o'clock.
"But when one has lost conscious
ness, whether through violence or
ether, or fainting, there is absolutely
no knowledge of time. A man coming
from under the influence of ether does
not know whether he has been uncon-
scious an hour or a month. He has no
sensation that will suggest it.
SIN sleep, however, it seems as if the
brains time card can be thrown off
completely. For instance, a person,

another faculty Of the brain in
time keeping is that in many individ-
uaIs it is possible for them to go to-
sleep and awaken at almost any hour
they may decide upon. In some per-
sons this ability to awaken at pleasure

Capt. Joseph f. Bernier, the Cana
dian, proposes to make dash for the
north pole, starting next year. He al
lows four years for the whole journey.
A large part of the time will be con-
sumed in drifting into a position ia
vorable to reaching the pole. He will
carry a complete wireless telegraph
apparatus. BY means of a telescope
pole attached to the mainmast, he be-
lieves he can elevate the transmitting
apparatus 200 feet above the deck, and
with this he hopes to keep in COM
munication with the inhabited parts Of
the earth. Two motor cars, so con-
structed that they can quickly be
turned into boats, are to be included in
his euuiDment.

MEAT FAMINE.
Small Riots Follow Strike of
Chicago TeamSters.
Chicago Is Face to Face with q
Very Serious Condition.
Hundreds of Butcher shops Closed
lee and Coal Teamsters Are Act-
ing In Unison with Their FeI-
low Craftsmen of the
stock Yards District,

Chicago, May 30.-Prospects of a
rise in the price of meat and a fight
to finish between the packers and
Transfers Union No. 10 developed at
the Union Stock Yards yesterday
Signs of peace faded as the result of
Intellectual conferences and indica-
tions of Il general strike grew strong
er. Two smaller unions are already
out.
The distribution of meat to local
houses was attended by great diff
ticulty, owing to the attitude of the
striking teamsterS. No work was at
tempted without the presence of the
police.
\ nOn-union teamster made an at
tempt to deliver meat to the Pal
mer house and was severely beaten.
He was set upon by three men, sup
posed to have been the teamsterS of
ice wagons. He succeeded in unload
ing his wagon, but later his injuries
made it necessary to take him home.
The officers had scarcely reached
the station when there was call
from the Illinois Central tracks at
Randolph street. Lieut.. Cudmore and
II men found upon their arrival that
james c. Irwin, president of the Ir-
win Brothers Co., butchers, and his
brothers, Alexander and John, mem
bers of the firm, wanted protection
while removing three loads of meat
from the cars to their shop. The po-
licemen surrounded the wagons and
proceeded east on the viaduct over
the tracks. \ big crowd followed,
jeering and throwing missiles. Lieut..
Cudmore's hat was smashed.
Chicago, May 31.-The four big
packing concerns of the stock yards
at conferences held Friday with
union leaders representing the strik-
ing teamsters refused absolutely to
grant the concessions asked, or any
part, and went openly on record as
being unalterably opposed to the rec
.ogition of union labor in the yards.
Thousands of persons had their
usual supply of meat cut off entirely
and many others who were unable to
buy little meat here and there paid
fancy prices for it. All through the
city butchers closed their places and
many of them will not open again
until the strike shall have been set
tied
The tie up in Chicago, which is de-
.clared complete, is to be carried TO
Omaha, Kansas City. St. Joseph and
St. Louis. and the teamsters, whose
national headquarters are in Chicago,
have received assurances from their
locals at those points that all the
men will obey the summons and go
out This move will be national in its
effects.
At the leading hotels and restaur-
ants, il was stated that the supplies
would last three days longer. If the
strike is not settled by that time the
managers do not know what they
will do. 1t might be possible to get
meat if they had only to deal with
the packers teamsters, but the
staunch sympathetic stand of the ice
men and coal teamsters leaves the
restauranteurs completely in the
hands of the strikers.

eign metallic substance comes in con-
tact with it.
The probe is also connected with the
telephone by a wire, and thus no such
blunder is possible as sometimes hap
pens when an ordinary battery il
used.
When telephone is used in this way
the plate acts as one pole and the
probe Is the other. Needles, bullets,
grains of shot and pieces of steel and
copper can be easily located by the
use of this simple method. Indeed.
it is said that the only instance when
the telephone did not work satisfac-
torily were when the objects to be To-
Gated were of the same metal as the
probe.
Eminent French and German sur
geons have been watching these ex-
periments in London, and intend to
introduce the same method into the
hospitals of Berlin and Paris.

FAVORABLE CONDITIONS.
n. G.. Dun & Co.'s Weekly Review
of Trade.

New York, May Sir. g. Dun q
Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade says:
Ease in the money market, favor
able crop prospects and confidence
abroad are the favorable factors
which outweigh the disturbing ele-
mentS of labor conflicts and unsea-
sonable weather for retail trade at
many points. Effects of the depress-
ing influences are less keenly felt be-
cause they are believed to be only
temporary, and confidence is ex-
pressed that with the resumption of
work and normal temperature there
will be a return to the liberal dis
tribution of merchandise. Despite the
short corn crop last year, the large
yield of wheat and high prices for
both resulted in the greatest value
for the two crops ever recorded,
which means that the agricultural
sections are prosperous, and other in
dustries must share the good fortune
by increased sales of products.
Efforts to place contracts for 100,-
900 tons of pig iron. deliverable in the
second quarter of 1903. indicate the
confidence of the leading consumers
as to the future of this industry.
There is no cessation of activity at
the mills.
No Improvement il reported at
New England boot and shoe centers,
where the shops are still running only
about half time.
Stocks of textile fabrics are not ac-
cumulating, although the markets are
extremely quiet. Domestic jobbing
trade Is fairly satisfactory, but eX-
ports of cotton goods are small. Print
cloths are dull and unchanged, with
the situation unsettled as to new
prints for the fall. Clothing manu-
facturers are purchasing wooden
goods in moderation only, and larger
deliveries by the leading company in
creases the disposition towards con-
servatism
Grain quotations made a decided ad-
vance early in the week, which was
not easily explained, except on the
basis of light supplies in sight. Sub
sequently the gain was lost in option
trading, although cash corn was firm
ly held.

Natural Heat AccumuIators.

A Hungarian chemist has discovered
that some of the salt lakes in Transyl-
vania present the popularity of layer
of warm, or even hot, salt water, be-
tween two bodies of colder water.
Thus in the Medoc lake the surface
temperature in summer is about 20
degrees, but at depth of little more
than four feet the temperature be-
comes 132 degrees, but declines again
to &C degrees at the bottom. The sur
face water is fresh, but the warm wa
ter beneath is intensely saline, and
the explanation of the difference of
temperature is that, since the specific
heat of salt water is less than that of
fresh water, the salt water is more
easily heated by the sun, and having
risen to a higher temperature than
that of the everything fresh water, re-
tains its heat because the fresh water
prevents its escape by radiation. 1t
is suggested that some use might be
found for these natural reservoirs, or
accumulatS-s, x Iolar heat.
