COLD WAVE COMING
But Weather Man Says Nothing as
to It's I,enpth


If the twin cities are soon to shudder
beneath a two weeks arctic wave, the
coolest of the winter, as predicted by a
St. Paul newspaper, Section Director Out
ram has not been officially so advised.
I'm sure,' said he, to-day, that the St.
Paul bureau couldn't have made such a
prediction seriously. The government
couple Of days ahead. Thirtys six hours is
the usual limit.
"The temperature here at Z a. m. was
IL degrees above. Tonight and to-mor-
row will probably be warmer, but to-
morrow night will be colder. A cold
wave is predicted for western North Da =
kota tonight or tomorrow, and the
odor of the icebergs will be smelled in
Minneapolis about twelve hours later
Since the Minneapolis office was esta5
Ished, twelve years ago, January has
been the coolest Of the three winter
months, February has been slightly
warmer, and December has been mucl,
the warmest. The average of minimum
temperatures for January has been $40
degrees above zero; for February 6.67 de-
grees above, and for December 1859 de-
grees above. The lowest average of mini
mum temperature for any one winter
month was Sc degrees below in January,
1898, and the next lowest 1.3 below in
January, 1895.
The middle third of January has beer
much the warmest-1.18 degrees above

third has averaged 9.91 below. But the

| DESERT LABORATORY.
The Carnegie Institute to Expert
ment on Plants That Use
Little Water.

From The journal Bureau, Room IS, Post Build
ing, Washington.
Washington, Jan. 19.--Among the many
proposals which have been submitted to
the Carnegie Institute for the use of it's
funds in new lines Of scientific research,
few are more interesting than that for a
Desert Laboratory which has just
been acted upon favorably, and for which
plans are now making. F. Y. Coville,
the botanist Of the department Of agricul-
ture, proposed the scheme. His idea was
that the vegetable groWths OF the arid
regions were comparatively little under
stood, but that an investigation of their
peculiar functions by his bureau was not
sufficiently unitarian for the present
purposes Of the department of agricul-
ture. Perhaps after scientists have found
out how these desert plants assimilate
SO many Of the elements OF the soil
without water, except in the most minute
quantities, the practical side will come
into play, and man may be able to har-
vest valuable crops, even where there i:
no water. Irrigation, even when fully
developed, will bring to fertility only a
fraction Of the great areas west of the
one hundredth meridian.
Mr.. Coville's plan has been accepted
by the necessary committees OF the Car
negie Institute, and $4,000 appropriated
for the first year S expense. He has been
appointed, with Mr.. MacDougal Of the
New York botanical garden. as an ad-
visory committee. They will soon make
trip through the southwest with view
of discovering the point where this
laboratory can to best advantage be
established. That selection will prob
ably be made this month. The site will
be not far from the Mexican boundary
The next step will be the selection Of {
resident investigator.
Desert plants are in most cases closely
related to the growths Of the humid re
gions. Certain types Of varieties tina
normally require a large amount of water
develop in the desert a structure which
enables them to get along with the meres
fraction of the ordinary supply. The pc
cuIiar mechanism by which they econo
nize moisture has long amazed the scien
tiic world, and the object Of the presen
inquiry is to ascertain the fundamental
of this plant life. The MeXicans make
great use of several of their desert plants
1t is possible that by cultivation thes'
may become adapted to the more exact
ing demands of the people of this country

EASY FOR PENSIONERS
Representative Marshal of North
Dakota Proposes to Frank the
Pension Vouchers.
From The Journal Bureau, Room IS, Post Build.
ing, Washington.

From The Journal Bureau, Room IS, Post Build.
ing, Washington.
Washington, Jan. 19.--Representative
Tom Marshall has been working with the
pension bureau officials on a plan to bene-
mt pensioners not onl yin North Dakota
but all over the country. In his CORE
spondence about pensions he has discov-
cred that pensioners are obliged to paw
postage on their quarterly vouchers when
returning them to pension agencies from
which payment it made.
He also found that in many cases these
vouchers have been sent in to Washing
ton instead of to agents, thus causing
great delay in making payments and in
crease in clerical work in the pension bu-
reau here. Mr. Marshall believes the gov
eminent should frank envelopes in which
vouchers may be returned to pension
agencies.
After being sworn to these envelopes
are to contain the address of the agent
printed plainly, SO they cannot go astray
IN transmission nor to Washington when
they belong somewhere else Pension
Commissioner Ware has promised to in
Vestigate the question, and let him know
whether the reform he wants :. can be
brought about by an official order or
whether legislation is, necessary. 49, .
If the latter IS the case Mr. Marshal II
will introduce a resolution or bill re-
curing pension agents to send each pen
sloner ranked return envelop with his
quarterly voucher, such measure will be
Endorsed by Commissioner aWre and by
Postmaster General Payne, who believes
the loss of postage will not be so great
law. ~-'. -

=. CHARGED WITH MURDER
Potvin to Be Tried at the Spring
Assizes at Winnipeg.

Special to The journal. ; p. s<s..-(
Winnipeg, Man., Jan. 1.-The officials
of the provincial depar tmert Of justice,
the deputy attorney general, George Pat
terson, the chief Of police, Ed Elliott, and
the court reporter, William Perkins, re-
turned to the city late Saturday night
from selkirk, bringing with them the
French fisherman, John Potvin, who is
charged with the murder3o of Captain John
Jervise Prother, at Snake Island, Winni-
peg, Dec. %. The prisoner was taken to
the provincial Jail. :
Potvin is a man of about a years of
age, of medium height, dark complexion
and there seems to be nothing about his
appearance to indicate that he is possessed
of a demons temper. Besides his mother
tongue, he speaks English f1uently: He
has a good name both in the town of Sell
kirk and among his neighbors out on the
lake, and those who know him have moth
ing but expressions of regret for him in
the awful position which he couples.
Mrs. Potvin died four years ago, leav-
ing two children, a girl, now a years Of
age, and a boy Of II, both of whom are
being educated at st. Boniface. Potvin
will be tried for the murder at the spring

BUBONIC FEARS
Some Apprehension Regarding Con-

Chicago, Jan. ia Washington special
to the Tribune says: There is consider
able anxiety here among we'll informed
people in the treasury department regard
ing the possibility of a serious outbreak
of the bubonic plague on the Pacific coast.
The marine hospital service is in possess
sion of a number of confidential reports
which are far from encouraging.
AS a matter Of public policy and partc-
ularly in Difference to the wishes of BUSH
ness men oa1 the coast, the marine hospi-
tai bureau stopped the publication Of re-
ports on the plague on the Pacific coast.
Instead of allaying anxiety, this increased
it, as people began to believe there was an
intentional suppression of the truth
No one believes that the bubonic plague
has attained any dangerous proportions on
the Pacific. but there is a feeling that the
situation is growing slightly worse instead
of better, and it is this feature that Gre
ates apprehension among the best posted
health officers.

BLAMES THE MINERS
John H. Sessions, Just From the
Mines, Says the Men
Won't Work.
He Declares This the Strongest Fac.
tor in Present Shortage
of Coal.

"The whole story Is this, the miners
won't work. said John H. Sessions this
morning, referring to fuel scarcity in the
country. "Our company has cars and To-
comotives enough to haul the coal. 1t has
furnished all the cars needed to the mines,
but the miners won't work more than four
or five hours a day, and they haven't done
so since work was resumed. The COM
pany can't do anything with them; they
come and go at their sweet will.
Mr.. Sessions is northwestern sales
agent of the Philadelphia & Reading Coal
and Iron company. He has just returned
from the east and is the first expert in
city after personal investigation of the
situation in the hard coal districts of
eastern Pennsylvania. AS to special con-
ditions, Mr.. Sessions speaks for his COM
pany alone. He said: .1.r.: ...t:'s .
1.-THE situation is better in the north
west. than anywhere else in the country.
Coal is selling at lower prices in Mime
apolis than in Chicago and the east, both
anthracite and bituminous. People buy
coal cheaper in Minneapolis than any
place I know Of. Our company charged
no higher than the regular prices as long
as it had COAL I met a man from York
Pa, almost at the mouth of the soft coa
mines, who paid s12 ton for coal which
sold here for ST.
Mr.. Sessions sees no relief from the
hard coal scarcity until the output Of the
mines exceeds the consumption. He ex.
poets no restoration Of normal, condition:
| until a year from this time, anyway anC
| no stock piles at the head Of the lakes
| until a year from next spring.
| The Reading road furnishes an enor
nous amount Of coal to large industrie
| on its line, which consume hard coal alone
The people in the east cannot use sof
coal, as their CRATES are not adapted t
such fuel, SO that this road at least
which also supplies Philadelphia, will b
unable to get hard coal west for a lon
| time.
Mr.. Sessions thinks that roads situate,
differently may be able to ship all raj
there at some earlier time. For ninet,
days at least hard coal will be consume,
as fast as it Is taken out Of the ground
When domestic consumption ceases il
the spring, the outIut may get ahead 0
the consumption, but as families will pu
in coal earlier next spring the stock pile
cannot begin to grow until year later
