T otal Eclipse.

Neutrality-suspicious. Admiral Ches-
4er, superintendent of the national OBJ.
servatory, has completed arrangements
for the observation of the total solar
eclipse of August 1890 of this year,
an event of the greatest Importance to
astronomers, and the details of his
plan have been made public. Congress
appropriated $4,000 for this purpose
and the naval party will be sent out on
the United States ship Columbia and
the United States ship Garter to estab-
lish three separate stations, namely
one near the central line of the eclipse,
possibly on one of the islands of the
Columbretres group, off the east coast
of Spain; one 10 or Is miles within
the edge of the shadow rath, probably
near Valencia, Spain, and one near
the central line. close to the railroad
from Tunis to Algiers, in Africa.
The force will consist of Rear Adj
miral G. M. Chester, U. S. N, in
charge; about seven men of the staff
of the observatory; L. E. Jewell or
John Hopkins university; DR.. S. A.
Mitchell of Columbia university, and
DR.. N. E. Gilbert of Dartmouth col
lege. Professor r. H. Bigelow of the
United States weather bureau will ac-
company the expedition in charge of
the meteorological work.
In this eclipse the moon shadow
strikes the earth at sunrise near the
south end of Lake Winnipeg, Manito-
ba, sweeps eastward through the Brit
ish possessions, over Labrador, and en-
ters the Atlantic ocean 100 miles north
of the east entrance of Belle Isle
straits. After leaving the American
coast no land is met by the shadow
until it reaches the north coast OF
Spain, where the middle of the shadow
crosses the coast line 100 miles west of
Santander and sweeps enthusiastically
across, leaving Madrid about 40 miles
and Valencia about two miles distant
from the southern edge outside OF the
shadow. Crossing the Mediterranean
the shadow strikes Africa midway be-
tween Algiers and Tunis. across the
desert into Egypt, leaving the earth IN
central Arabia.
Besides this American naval expedl-
ton, the Harvard university expects 10
locate an observatory in Labrador, the
Indiana state university will send
body to Spain and the German govern
ment will locate on the Columbretres
islands. Lick observatory will SEND
parties to Labrador. Spain, Egypt
and Russia will send out two parties

ot' petersburg lhlnkS Japan Can
Not Refuse Reasonable Offer
Rojestvensky May Wait for Weeks.
st. Petersburg, April 11.--There is
reason to believe that Vice Admiral
Rosjestvenskys entrance into the
China sea has been followed by orders
for the cruisers Gromoboi, Rossia and
Bogatyr, which have been ready for
some time at Vladivostok, to put to
sea. Whether it is the intention to
send them south Immediately or to
hold them in the vicinity of Vladivo-
stok is not known. Their appearance
outside the roadstead of Vladiyostok
would constitute a potential threat
against Admiral Togo's rear which will
compel the retention in or dispatch
of a number of fighting ships to Jap
anese waters. Thus Admiral Togo
seems to be virtually placed between
two fires
The peace party of the government
urges that this favorable strategic po-
sition presents the psychological mo-
ment for Offering officially the olive
| branch to Japan, reasoning that no
matter how confident the Japanese
government may be of Togo's victory,
it can not overlook the possibility of
defeat nor fail to appreciate the com
plete disaster which would follow the
transfer of the mastery of the sea to
Russia.
With so much depending upon the
issue, they argue that both countries
have mutual interests in avoiding an
actual test and it is not impossible.
| therefore, that a new move in the di-
rection Of peace may come just as the
world expects to hear the call to quar-
ters for the greatest naval battle of
modern times
Certainly the spirits of the war par
ty have been greatly raised by Ro-
jestevensky's success in penetrating to
the China sea. and the prospect OF a
naval battle, even with the odds
against a Russian victory, which
would change the entire complexion
of the situation, has aroused some
thing like a flash of enthusiasm in
many Russian breasts.
> Some naval officers express the opin-
! ion that Rojestvensky, having now
safely navigated the straits instead OF
5 sailing north to meet the Japanese. can
afford to calmly await Admiral Ne.
gogatOf with his division of the
squadron who could arrive there in
about three weeks.
The Russian admiralty on Sunday
received long dispatch from Singa-
pore, but no intimation as to it's con-
; tents has been given the newspapers.
The papers Sunday morning printed
Singapore dispatches without com
ment, the Syiet being the only excep-
ton. This paper views the news from
Rojestyensky as an suspicious prelude
to a decisive battle, which may show
that over Rojestvensky still shines the
happy star which helped him when
! lieutenant to save the fragile Vesta in
in an unequal conflict with a Turkish
batteship."
The Sviet expresses the hope that
Rojestyensky is destined to turn the
tables. and that even in case Of de-
feat some of his vessels will be able
to break through and reach the Japan
sea.
