TRACKING THE ASSASSIN
POLICE BELIEVE THEY WILL SOON
HAVE DOC LUNG MURDERER.
Conference Held in Office of Detec-
tfves Productive of GoOd-CantrelI
Gives Information.

1t is probable that within a few days the
real murderers of Doc Lung will be behind
prison bars. 1t was said yesterday after
a conference of Superintendent Taffe, Cap
tain Gerber, several detectives and attor-
neys and Rufus Cantreil, held in the office
of the detectives, Ii is likely that not many
hours will have elapsed before the muir
hended.
The conference lasted several hours. At
the close ii was said by the members of
the party that Cantrell told them what he
knew of the murder, but the police and
detective departments had more know ledge
With the few points Cantrell gave the de-
tectives, the work of running down the
murderer was made easier. Cantrell, at
the close of the conference. declined to dis
cuss the situation and said that all the re-
ports circulated about his connection with
the murder were untrue.
Cantreil did not make any admissions as
to the Identity OF the murderer to the de-
tectives yesterday, but he gave them as
surances that he knew who the guilty par
ties are.
Captain Gerber said the case would not be
allowed to rest for an instant until the
Chinaman's murderer is under arrest. He
said the men that have been actively en-
gagged for several months in looking after
the case have gained much information
aside from that which Cantrell dropped
yesterday afternoon. The police have put
much confidence in the story sent to this
city by Wallace Simms The theories set
out by Simms. they think, will be followed.

John C. Dean Presents Some interest
ing Facts About Earth's NeighbOr
Opposition of Mars.

John C. Dean, an amateur astronomer
of ability of Indianapolis. has been closely
observing Mars for the past few weeks.
Speaking of his observations he says:
ION Saturday night. March %. Mars
will reach it's nearest point to the earth
during its present revolution around the
sun. 1t will then be opposite the sun and
will rise in the east as the sun sinks In the
west.
Mars is the first of the exterior planets,
its orbit lying Immediately without or be-
yond the earth's. Its fine rudy complexion,
similar to that Of the star Antares, makes

now in good position for observation in the
constellation of Virgo. in the knee of the
figure, just outside the east line of the
great diamond of Virgo. It's present dis
lance from the earth is a little more than
100000 miles. Figure l shows its position

planet. 1t receives only about half as
much heat from the sun as we do Its
atmosphere is much less dense than on
volume only one-seventh that of the
earths- Gravity is much less there than
here, and Mars is farther advanced in its
history than Is our planet.
Professor Newcomb says: "A single look
at Mars through a large telescope would
convince most observers that the resem-
blances to our earth have a small founda-
ton in observation, the evidence being
negative rather than positive 1t is also
possible that IL the ontical powers of our
telescopes were so increased that we could
see Mars as from distance of 1000 miles
the resembances would vanish as COM
pletely as they did In the of the moon
1T is 10 be hoped that the present oppo-
sition of the planet Mars will result in
more accurate observations of its canals,
polar caps and other mysterious surface
markings, that may lead to a better ex-
PLANTATION of their causes and nature"

the three bodies in line The orbital mo-
ton of Mars is a little more than half as
fast as that of the earth. Its apparent
size varies greatly; in proportion the
planet comes nearer TO us its size expands
in the telescope. Figure illustrates the
variation of it's disk. The sphere at the
right shows its relative size when in it's
most favorable opposition and at its near
est point TO the earth. The small sphere
at the left shows its shrinkage when near
conjunction, and at its most remote dis
lance from the earth. 1t is fifty times as
bright when in opposition as when in SUI
perior conjunction.
MARS PREHISTORIC.
Like Mercury and Venus, Mars is pre-
historic as to discovery. With even a small
telescope it is a beautiful object, having
a very attractive surface diversified with
light and dark markings. At the poles
there are white patches called polar caps
that are thought to be masses of snow
or ice. These polar caps vary in size with
the progress of the season on Mars. At
the close of the Marian winter the caps are
largest, and they gradually diminish In
size as the summer progresses. The most
. remarkable feature of the planet is a num-
Der OF straight lines called canals crossing
IL in all directions. These markings are
faint and difficult to observe, so much so
that many well-known astronomers have
doubted their existence. AS to the real ma
ture Of the canals, IL is doubtful If any
