SCIENCE CANNOT EXPLAIN.
Some Things that Have Successful

Some Things that Have Successfully
Battled All Research.
When the number and violence Of
magnetic storms are recorded and
compared, it is found that they CORE
spond to the spots on the sun, and go
through the same period Of eleven
years. The conclusion seems almost
inevitable: magnetic storms are due
to some emanatiOn sent out by the
sun, which arises by the same cause
that produces the spots This emana-
ton does not go on necessarily, but
only In an occasional way. as storms
follow each other on the earth. What
Is 1t! Every attempt to detect it has
been in vain. Professor Hale. at the
Yerkes observatory, has had in opera
ton from time to time, for several
years. his ingenious spectrOheliograph ,
which photographs the sun by single
ray Of the spectrum. This instrument
shows that violent actions are going
on In the sun, which ordinary Obser-
walton would never lead us to suspect.
But 1t has failed to show with certain
ty any peculiar emanation at the time
Of magnetic storm or anything con-
nected with such storm.
A mystery which seems vet more
impenetrable is associated with the So
called new stars which blaze forth
from time to time. These offer to our
sight the most astounding phenomena
ever presented to the physical philoso-
pher. One hundred years ago such
objects offered no mystery. There was
no reason to suppose that the Crea tor
Of the universe had ceased His func-
tons; and, continuing them, 1t was
perfectly natural that He should be
making continual additions to the uni
verse Of stars. But the idea that these
objects are really new creations, made
out Of nothing, 10 contrary to all our
modern ideas and not in accord with
the observed facts. Granting the pos
sibility Of really new star-if such
an object were created, 1t would be
destined to take its place among the
other stars as a permanent member
Of the universe. Instead of this, such
objects invariably fade away. after
a few months and are changed into
something very like an ordinary neb-
ula.
A question Of transcendant interest
is that of the cause Of these Outbursts.
1t cannot be said that science has, I'D
to the present time, been able to offer
any suggestion not open to question:

lions of AlcXieR.

London, Jan. 2O.-The Port Arthur
correspondent of the Daily Mail cables
that he had an interview with Admit
raj Alexieff, the Russian viceroy in the
far East, who spoke hopefully of the
possibility of arranging modus vi
vendi with Japan. The viceroy then
referred the correspondent to his dip
lomatic agent, M. Plancon, who en-
phasized the impossibility of Russia $
evacuation of Manchuria, and said:
"Orders were given six months ago
to evacuate Newchwang and Manchu-
ria, providing the Chinese would agree
to simple terms, but owing to the in
trigues of the japanese minister with
the Chinese foreign board these orders
were countermanded."
M. Plancon declared that the action
of the United States in making COM
mercial treaty with China without
Russia's consent under the existing
circumstances was unfriendly and un:
diplomatic.
Will Not Admit COnsuls.
Russia, he said, would not open
ports or allow consuls at Mukden and
Antung under the present regime. If
Japan wanted Korea, M. Plancon said,
Russia would not interfere provided
other powers allowed it, and he added !:
Russia did not ask Japan's consent
to occupy Manchuria, neither was it
necessary for Japan to seek Russia $
permission to establish protectorate
in Korea"
M. Plancon concluded by saying
that the United States and other ma
tions were more interested in the sit
uatiOn than was Russia.
The correspondent adds that the &C.
ton of the United States had quite
upset Viceroy Alexieff's calculations.
Paving Way for Retreat.
The German newspapers this morn
ing appear to be paving the way to
explain the Russian retreat in the ne
gotiations with Japan, and in all the
capitals of Europe opinion now in
clines to peaceful issue in the far
East.
In dispatch from Tokyo the cor
respondent of the Daily Mail reports
that lengthy conference of the jap
anese cabinet was held on Tuesday,
and says the emperor is receiving the
ministers of finance and marine and
the naval officers. The correspondent
says he has learned that Mr.. Kurino,
Japanese minister at St. Petersburg,
has sent confidential report, in
which he says that at secret meet.
mgr ecently of the Russian grand
duke and the ministers, War Minister
Kurupatkin and some of his colleagues
declared in favor of peace.
According to the Tokyo correspond
ent of the Standard, the privy council
will be convened Wednesday to discuss
important measures bearing on the
situation.
The Port Arthur correspondent of
the Mail declares in dispatch that
eleven Russian battalions of infantry,
together with cavalry and artillery,
have been dispatched to the Yalu riv-
er. He mentions also an uncOnrfimed
report that Japan has landed troops
in Southern Korea.

CANADIAN RAILWAY LAW.
New and Sweeping Law Becomes Eff
fective February 1.

New and Sweeping Law Becomes Eff
fective February 1.
Vancouver, B. c., Jan. 2O.-A spe-
,cial from Ottawa says: An order in
council has been passed making the
railway act of 1908 effective on Febru-
airy l. 1904.
The railway act, as assented to on
October "a, 1903, is sweeping in its
control of power governing Canadian
railroads, their freight and passenger
tariffs, classifications and service. BY
the act this power is delegated to
railway commission consisting of three
members, who are supplied with Sec
rotary.
The freight classification of all rail
roads is controlled by the commission
ers, and alterations in it cannot be
made except with the sanction of the
board. Any classification used in the
United States may, subject to the
boards approval, be used with respect
to traffic to and from hte United
States.
Control of Rates.
If the tariffs of any road are deemed
unjust or unreasonable, they may be
disallowed by the board and other
tolls may be prescribed. All freight
and passenger tariffs shall be filed
with the board for approval, the same
to be given before any alteration in
tariffs can be given effect.
In order to allow time for the rail
way companies to comply with the act
in respect to tolls, tolls may be charg-
ed under the law as it stood immedi-
ately before the enforcement of the
act, until the act has been three
months in force, or until such later
date as the board may by order in any
case, or by regulation, fix and allow.
The act prescribes that no discrimi
nation in tolls or charges shall be
made by any railroad against or in ia
vor of iany locality or individual, nor
shall any discrimination be shown
any localities, companies or individu-
ais in the supplying of freight cars.
Free Passes Unlawful.
1t is amde unlawful for any railroad
to give special passenger rates or free
transportation to shippers of freight.
Members of parliament and the board
Of commissioners must, however, be
furnished with free transportation.

FRANCE WILL NOT AID.
will Remain a Military Neutral in
Event of War.


Berlin, Jan. 2l.-The German gov
eminent has become privy to the fact
that France declines to give Russia
any assurances of armed help should
war be the outcome of the far Eastern
difficulties, even should Great Britain
aid Japan.
1t is understood here that Russia
asked France to denfie her position in
the contingency of Great Britain act
lively participating in Japanese at
tack on Russia, and that the French
government replied that France must
remain military neutral, as the Rus
sian-Frecnh alliance was quite sepa-
rtae on the question now pending.
This resolution of France, it is be-
lieved here, deeply affects not only
the situation between Russia and Jap
an, but the Franco Russian alliance.
