English Motor Vehicles.

Motor vehicles for carrying or haul
ing heavy loads are now so much used
in England that their operation is
closely guarded by government super
vision. United States Consul Mahin
at Nottingham has made repor- on
the subject. Hitherto" says he. "the
legal weight limit Of an empty motor
car has been three tons. Now It is
raised to five, with an increase In the
legal joint weight (unladen) Of a mo-
tor car and trailer from four to six
tons. Heretofore there has been no
legal weight limit to the ,oad on a
motor car. but the new regulations aim
to prevent excessive loading. The to-
tai weight of car and load is limited
to twelve tons. The weight borne on
any axle shall not exceed eight tons"

Funeral of a Striker.

Chicago, May 15.-Marching with
draped banners and muffled drums
more than 1000 union men followed
the remains of strike victim George S.
Pierce from his late home to the un-
ion station here yesterday.
No funeral services were held here,
but the escorting of the body to the
station was made the occasion of Ia
Dor demonstration in which not only
the teamsters' union, but organized Ia
bor generally, participated. The prog
ress of the cortege was without Incl
ent. The men marched solemnly four
abreast. Each wore upon his coat
lapel white button with the inscrip-
ton in black:
I'VE mourn the loss of murdered
brother"
Pierce was an employe of Rothschild
& Co., as driver of a delivery wagon.
He was shot by Special Deputy Sheriff
F. T. Waldorf. He is the only union
man who has lost his life during the
strike and is regarded by other men as
a martyr to the cause. Pierce is said
to have assaulted a non-union driver
in the presence of Waldorf. Waldorf
was exonerated by coroner's jury.

LAKE GEORGE CUTOFF
DENVER & CRIPPLE CREEK LINE
New Route Planned by Colorado G.
Southern-From Platte Canon to
Great Gold Camp.

Denver, May 15.-The News this
morning says: Cripple Creek is to be
within two hours of Denver, instead
of five. as at present, the distance to
be reduced from 131 miles to less than
ninety. This is what the Lake George
cutoff of the Colorado & Southern will
do toward bringing The principal
points of Colorado closer together.
Four years ago the proposed cutoff
was surveyed. and it was the intention
to build it then. The change in the
ownership of number of the Colo
RADIO railroads changed this, however,
and the plan was practically given
up, although it was realized that 1t
would be of untold benefit not only to
the great gold camp, but TO Denver as
we'll.
Now that the Colorado u Southern
has perfected all of its plans for be-
coming a great continental system,
this cut in both the running distance
and the time will be put into effect as
soon as the new road can be built.
The cutoff will probably begin at
Dome Rock. on the Leadville branch
of the Colorado & Southern. Dome
Rock Is thirty-two miles from Denver,
and from there a cutoff of forty-two
miles will be run straight across the
country, meeting the Colorado Midland
road at Lake George. From there it
is about ten miles into Cripple Creek.
This Is not the only extension
planned by the Colorado & Southern.
AS foretold in the News. the intention
is to make it a transcontinental line,
reaching from the Atlantic to the Pa
cific. 1t is to carry out these plans
and to look the ground over that Presi-
dent B. l.. Winchell of the Rock
Island. who is also interested in the
Colorado & Southern, will arrive in
Denver to-day or tomorrow with
party of railroad men. In the party
is w. H. Moore of Moore Bros, who
control the Rock Island; d. G. Reid,
chairman OF the executive board; Sec
ond Vice President Nudge and Third
Vice President Biddle.

Colorado Building at Portland.

Denver. May IA telegram was

l. D. Lewis, architect in charge OF the
buildings at the fair, stating that work
had started on Colorado's building.
He promises to have it completed in
two weeks which will be in time for the
opening. The building is to cost 81, 500
and can be erected quickly. The eli
mate is mild and the building only
needs to be shell that will keep off
the rain. Agriculture and horticulture
are to be exhibited there. The min
eral exhibits will be placed in the
mines building, as the commission ex-
poets to take prizes with that exhibit.
In the Colorado building will be
pleasant quarters for Colorado people
to stop. rest and register. 1t will also
be headquarters for advertising the
state in such a manner as the various
publicity organizations may deem
best,

Quiet at St. Petersburq.

st. Petersburg, May Is, 1890 a. m.-
The widely-heralded May day demon
strations in St. Petersburg were a
complete fiasco, and reports from Mos
COW and the provinces indicate that
order reigned on Sunday generally
throughout the entire extent of Rus
sia
Minor disorders are reported at
Reval, Kishineff and one or two other
places, but up to midnight no reports
of serious tumults or loss of life have
been received and the attempt of the
social democrats and social revolution
lists to signalize May day by great
anti-government demonstrations ar
pears to have been thorough failure.

WEATHER FORECASTS
LONG RANGE PREDICTIONS IDLE
No Legitimate Basis for Estimates
Based on the Moons Phases or
Position of the Planets.

~'eSn OI tne FidnetS.
The chief of the Weather Bureau
has recently placed before the public
a pamphlet entitled Long Range
Weather Forecasts, by Prof. E. B. Gar.
mott, that is full of interesting things
to one who is a seeker after the truth
regarding these delusions. A great
many things in it are worthy of fur
ther publication. but we wish, at this
time. simply to give its conclusions:
/. That systems of long range
weather forecasting that depend upon
planetary meteorology; moon phases,
cycles, positions. or movements; stel-
lar influences. or star divinations; in
dfcations afforded by observations of
animals, birds, and plants, and esti-
mates based upon days, months, sea-
sons. and years have no legitimate ba-
sis.
2. That meteorologists have made
exhaustive examinations and compari-
sons for the purpose of associating
the weather with the various phases
and positions of the moon in an earn
est endeayor to make advances in the
science along the line of practical
forecasting, and have found that while
the moon, and perhaps the planets.
exert some influence upon atmos-
pheric tides, the influence is too slight
and obscure to justify a consideration
of lunar and planetary effects in the
actual work of weather forecasting.
3. That the stars have no apprecia-
BILE influence upon the weather.
4. That animals, birds, and plants
show by their condition the character
of past weather, and by their actions
the influence of present weather and
the character of weather changes that
may occur within a few hours.
5. That the weather of days,
months. seasons, and years affords no
indications Of future weather further
than showing present abnormal condi-
tions that the future may adjust.
6. That six and seven-day weather
periods are too ill-defined and irregu-
lar to be applicable to the actual work
of forecasting
Z. That advances in the period and
accuracy of weather forecasts depend
upon a more exact study and under
standing of atmospheric pressure over
great areas and a determination of the
influences, probably solar, that are re
sponsible for normal and abnormal
distributions of atmospheric pressure
over the earth's surface.
8. That meteorologists are not an
tagonistic to honest, well directed ef-
forts to solve the problem of long
range forecasting; that. on the con-
trary, they encourage all work in this
field and condemn only those who. for
notoriety or profit or through misdi
rected zeal and unwarranted assump
tions, bring the science of meteorology
into disrepute.
9. That meteorologists appreciate
the importance to the world at large
of advances in the period of forecast
ing and are inclined to believe that
the twentieth century will mark the
beginning Of another period in meteor
ologicai science.
