FISH ARE DEAF.

A German Professors Experiment.
 Animal Life) will recall a statement to the effect that the carp inf1abiting a pond in a certain continental town are accustomed to come up to the landing steps al the sound of bell to be fed. And from this and other cir cumstances it has been commonly held, at least up to the middle of the last century, that fishes possess the sense of hearing.
 In the year 1851 were discovered, however, the so-called organs of Corti in the internal ear of mammals, which there is good reason to believe alone re- eeive and transmlt to the brain the vibratifflons giving, rise to the sense of hearing Now, these organs of Corti, together with the bony labyrinth of the internal ear in which they are con- tained, are absent in fishes alone among the whole group of vertehrates, and it accordingly seems highly probable that these creatures lack these creatures lack the power of hearing, especially since there seems reason to believe that the aforesaid organs of Corti are ab- sent in such few members of the otfaer classes of vertebrates as are deaf If , this be so, it follows, of course that the so-called otoliths the familiar solid white bones in the head of the cod, for instancesl in the ears of fishes have nothing to do with the sound of hear i ing.
 The whole question has recently been discussed in an exceedingly interesting manner by Professor o. Korner, direc- tor of the ear hospital a Rostock The learned professor says that nature is never wasteful, and, since fisaes possess keen power of sight, smell and touch Gin the so-called lateral line on the sid of the boay) it is improbable 11at they are also provided with the senss of hearing He incidentally cites as a proof of this the presence of numbers of sharks at the battle of Aboukir Bay and other naval battles, point out that those fishes had heard the roar of tlC cannon they would scarcely have swhr about in their usual unconcerned manel intent only on business.
 Another argument urged is that thc sense of hearing would be useless lc fishes, since the enemies by which they them from above, The vibrations caused by the breaking of the wave' on the beach are probably com municated by the lateral line system so that fishes are warned in this man mer of the proximity of land
 Brehms anecdote of the carp comini to be fed does not by any means impl! that these fishes hear the sound of tn, bell, and 1t is much more likely the! feel the vibrations communicated t the water by t3e fact of the persons coming up to the landing steps.
 Moreover, according to the German professor, it appears as the result o direct experiment that, while fish ar able to take cognizance Of numerou rapid vibrations in water, such as ar communicated by an electric bell the take no notice whatever of loud singl explosions under water, such as thos made by dynamite. This strongl points to the conclusion that they re ceive impressions of tl3e former type c vibrations by means of their sense o touch or feeling, but that they have n perception of either kind of vibration by means of hearing.-Baltimor American.

THE KAIsER's FUTILE D1PLo-
 MAftY


 The impression seems to be gaining ground-whether rightly or wrongly it would be difficult to say-that the Morocco Conference is destined to end in failure; and if this happens the curiosity of the world as to the conse- quences will be acute The sugges- tion is HOW made that in such an event negotiations will be continued between France and Germany direct. France could ask nothing better, but it would be a singularly inept blunder for Germany to make. The Conference was called and the Powers have taken part in it at the request of the Ger man Emperor. France has made every possible concession she could have been expected to make, and the responsibil- ity for breaking up the Conference V.~lout action will rest upon Germany solely. What more exasperating line could the Emperor take than to go on treating with France as if the Confer ence has never been called? It would be a slap in the face to every Power concerned.
 That there is little sympathy in the conference with the German attitude was shown on Saturday, when the dele gates, by vote of ten to three, adopt ed Sir Arthur Nicolson's proposition to proceed to the dicussion of the police question. This means that the | long-drawn-out negotiations between I Germany and France on that question must come to an end. France has been willing to let the conference adjust the difficulty all along The vote of Satur- day, therefore, means that all the Powers, Austria and Morocco excepted, admit the essential justice of the French contention. As the delegates go on with the consideration of police regulations they may seek for some further compromises on details; but they are not likely to ask France to modify materially her demands. Thus the German Emperor would have either to submit to a diplomatic defeat at Algeciras or to run the risk of war by pursuing his aims in spite of the ad- verse judgement of the arbiters he had himself sought. There is something very LluCA llh6 LulIiC ulPlOilo0S AA this,
 It is true, of course, that William H is a resourceful person, and that he might yield to the decision of the con- ference only to get full quid pro que in another matter. The London eorre. spondent of the Journal suggests thai he has his eye on the Netherlands, anc that if the Powers give their assem- to the principle that the special in, terests of a great Power in a minoi country confer upon it special rights he will apply this doctrine to his Dutcf neighbors and endeavor to extend {. protectorate over them. That thi' would mean European war is only too probable But the case of tn, Netherlands is far from being cn al fours with the case of Morocco, sine ! it Is a. civilized country where life anC , property are safe; and Germany woult be more completely isolated from thu : sympathy of other nations than eve ) if any principle laid down at Algecira were so misinterpreted by her. Tha : the German Emperor is a mischief
 maker is too plain; but unless he ha Host his head completely he will no : defy the whole world.-Providenc

ed and Work to BE gin.

Americus people are very deeply
interested in the information coming
from Macon yesterday relative to the
building of the interurban electric
railway line from that city to Albany,
and connecting at Macon with The
system, now under construction, to
Atlanta. The building of this entire
line of probably 26O miles is fully
assured.
For the distance between Albany and
Atlanta will be reduced at least 25 or
30 miles, if not more, the electric road
following an air line.
COmmOdious offices have been taken
in the Grand building for the Macon,
Americus and Albany Electric Rail-
way Company; the Macon and Albany
Securities Company, and the Electric
Railway Express Company.
For the Atlanta, Griffin and Macon
Electric Railway two engineering corps
have been in the field since July Is; one
surveying from Macon northward and
one from Atlanta southwark.
These two corps met at Griffin yes
terday with the result that the line OF
this electric railway will be by several
miles the shorest between Macon and
Atlanta. AS soon as the electric
engineering and the hydraulic engin-
eering has been completed, the actual
| nOn will Ioo
And in a years time, it is hoped to
have the line in complete operation.
Cars will leave Macon for Atlanta and
leave Atlanta for Macon every hour.
The running time for the through ex-
press car, will be two hours between
Macon and Atlanta, while the time fo1
the local service cars will be about two
and three-quarter hours.
The ears will be of the very latest
convertible type, especially designed
to meet the requirements Of long dis
tance travel in Georgia. The ears will
be about IS feet in length with for
ward compartment for white people, a
central compartment for baggage, ex-
press and mail matter, and rear COM
partment for colored people.
Mr.. w. ]. Kincaid, the capitalist and
cotton mill man of Griffin is the presi-
dent of the Atlanta, Griffin and Macon
company.
Engineering corps will be placed in
the field at an early date to survey the
route between Macon and Albany, with
instructions to reduce the mileage to
the smallest possible minimum. AS
soon as the engineering and other pre-.
Iiminary work has been completed, the

da coast, half dozen men, perched
on the ROOF of the afternouae OF the
wa lerlogged British schooner Siroc-
co are struggling against wind and
sea to reach a Cuban port with their
almost helpless charge.
The plight of the men is due in
part TO the heroic devotion of their
captain, who when hep was a, hand,
chose to face death rather than aban
don his ship and her cargo Of lumber.
He declined an offer of assistance
from the steamer PARMA, which ran

was Mallowing in the seas, coo miles
east of Florida.
The captain asked only that he be
given supplies % replace those which
were ruined when his ship filled with

down in their precarious quarters on
the roof of the afterhouse and an
