w T. Foster, q long-range weather

Others Answered.
1t is believed that answers of a sirni-
lar character were sent to other mem
bers of Congress in reply TO their quer-
les in the matter. One member wrote
&c Mr.. Moore asking him TO furnish
proof Of these statements. The Chief of
the Weather Bureau informed the men,
Der that such proofs were in Mr
Moore's Office for reference whenever
occasion proved convenient. The case,
therefore, stands as 1t is.
The clash between Mr. Foster and
Chief Moore came some months ago
Wnen the lOFtiief was refused access to
the public records.
Mr.. Foster declared himself possessor
of d system by which long range fore
casts could be made. but refused TO df-

willing TO employ any man who could
accomplish such feat no matter from,

Mr. Foster has been engaged In the
study of naeteorology for more than
twenty-five years, but acknowledges
that even now his system is not quite
complete and that therefore he will not
give away the result of his quarter cen
tury's work
According to Mr. Foster his forecasts
have been indorsed by scientists con-
nected with some of the foremost col
leses In America. His predictions are
furnished TO many papers throughout
the United States
It was with the purpose of consulting

Commissioner Macrarland says.

do not believe that al this time there

enactment of such a law, withoui the
assurance that the parents of the COM

heartily TO bring about its observance.
Sentiment Is Divided.
There is evidently a lack of unanknity
with respect TO the proposition on the
part of officials. dealing with tfle public
