WILL SHIP TAILINGS.
H. R. Fry VIII Ship 250O Tons From
 old Boston Mill.
Especial to Reyiew.i


 TOMBSTONE, Dec. s.-H. R. Fry. the we'll known mining man. who was formerly located at Charleston and at the Boston mill Is in Tombstone for a few days. MT. Fry has been located in Fl Paso for the past few months engaged in mining business. He has returned here for the purpose of mak- ing arrangements for the shipping of the old tailings at the Boston mill to the smelters at Fl Paso. The F. P. & S. W. railroad company will put in a small spur at the Boston mill at once and the work of shipping the tail ings started as soon as the spur has been completed. It is expected that there are about 250o tons of the tail- ings that will carry good values and will net the shippers good sum. The tailings were accumulated at the mill some twenty years ago when the mill vas run on ore furnished from the mines of the Tombstone district.

JOHNSON TAKES TURN AROUND.
He Has Been Busy Ironing Out Labor
Troubles

Labor Commissioner w. L. A. John
son has returned from swing around
the circle, adjusting labor troubles.
At Wichita he was called to inspect
the Domestic laundry, which it was
charged did not properly safeguard its
employees from injury by the machinery.
The labor commissioner directed that
the fywheel. betting and other parts of
the machinery be encased to make it
more safe to work IN their vicinity.
At Conway Springs complaint had
been made of the violation Of the eight
hour law. A contractor named Golf was
working ten hours q day on a public
school building, in order to hasten the
completion of the job on account of the
bad condition Of the old building. Mr..
johnson decided that no emergency ex-
listed which warranted the suspension
of the eight hou1 law, and he decided
that work must be limited to eight
hours per day.
Mr.. johnson also went to Kansas City
to investigate an eight hour case, but
found that there was no cause for the
complaint.

greenwich has, therefore, to be deter
mined with the greatest possible ac-
curacy. AS an illustration of the ease
with which calculation may be upset,
l would point out that the longitude
of Paris from Greenwich has been de-
termined by an accuracy of within
feet on the earth's surface, but the VI
bration set up by the generating sta
tion of the London County Council is
equivalent to an oScillatory movement
at the observing station of from so to
500 feet on the earth's surface. The
nautical almanacs, not only of Great
Britain, but of all the world, depend
essentially upon Greenwich observa
tions for the sun, the moon, the planets
and the stars, and the work of prepar-
ing and correcting these almanacs has
been going on at Greenwich Observa-
tory for 230 years.
1t will surprise many to learn, per
hapS,sthat the principal work of this
ancient observatory is not to discover
new stars or worlds, but to correct
time and settle the precise longitude
of this or that place Indeed, the as
tronomer royal is the real arbiter of
The San Francisco call., 1906-07-29

prehension. One of the tasks which the
worlds obseryatories share in common
is that of making the great atlas of
15O,000,0e0 stars of the visible universe.
Greenwich Observatory's share in this
work embraces the circumpolar stars,
and 1T needs no scientific education to
perceive the exactness and precision
which are demanded in this kind of
observation.
But the testimony of the astronomer
royal and of Professor Turner, Savilian
professor at oxford. is decisive the
disturbance to this class of work which
is inflicted by the vibration of the dy-
namos of the power-house. For many
observations it is necessary to have a
rejecting surface of quicksilver. Vibra-
tions of the kind set up by power
station, though they are imperceptible
to the ordinary sensibility, are suffi-
cient to disturb quicksilver surfaces
and cover them with minute ripples.
These ripples. according to Professor
Turner's evidence, are a grave disturb
ance to accuracy of observation, and
will be still more seriously disturbing
when the power station is finished and
has all it's engines running.
How serious a threat to science this
power station makes may be gathered
from the foregoing. The observatory
might be moved and the qualities of it's
scientific research thus freed from dan
ger of impairment. But, founded by
Charles II, it is an historical monument
of the greatest interest. Furthermore,
its accessibility to the chief port of the
world makes its removal a matter
hardly for serious consideration.
ITO move the observatory" declares
Sir William Christie, the astronomer
royal. virtually means moving the
world. 1t would throw all existing
charts out of order as well as all clocks.
Greenwich is the reference point for
the whole world. For its continuance
we are practically pledged to every
civilized nation under the sun. / would
put 1t In this way: that foreign nations
have adopted the Greenwich meridian
for time and longitude. in the belief
that the continuity of observations at
the observatory is assured. They are
under the firm belief that at any time
tl.ey will be able to determine the diff
ference of longitude between a place
in their own country and Greenwich, or
the distance of any European or other
observatory in the world from that of
Greenwich; but, clearly, observations
to that end could not be made as at
p1 resent IL the Greenwich observatory
were removed, and it is equally plain
to those who understand these matters
that reliable data cannot be supplied
from Greenwich observatory so long a
serious earth vibrations are caused by
the generating station.
There is a proposal now under con-
sideration to determine the longitude
of Cairo as a basis of Egyptian sur
veys-a matter of great Importance
and that could not be carried out with
accuracy under the conditions of which
we are all complaining. On that longi-
tude depends the delimitation of the
boundary between Turkey and Egypt,
and the determination of the boundary
between the Congo Free State and
Uganda may also depend on it. This

The whole network of geodetic sur
yeys throughout the world is referred

boundaries. There is seldom a time
when the longitude of some place or
other is not being ascertained with the
utmost possible exactness at Green
wich. Should a duSky monarch in At
rica claim few feet of British terri
tory and the point cannot be easily
settled there. it is referred to Green

other purposes, is performed gratui-
tously, although not a few Observable

Then. as already stated, chronOmeters
for the navy are tested at Greenwich.
About 700 of these timepieces are daily

chief of the navy he can, of course go
aboard any naval vessel and order it to
sail wherever it pleases him. On his
recent trip up the coast from New Or
leans he used the armored cruiser West
Virginia, but as rule he confines his
voyaging to the Mayflower and the
Sylph.
All Presidents of recent years have
made use of Government vessels for
pleasure trips. President Mckinley
was not good sailor and did not often
go abroad, but President Cleveland fire.
Quently used a lighthouse tender for
hunting trips down the Chesapeake
Bay.
In a table of accounts at Washington
the expense of the May1ower and Sylph
is set down at S175,000, which some
have claimed could be saved the people
If the two yachts in time of peace were
ordered out of commission. The an
swering argument is that the same
would hold true of all the other veg
sells of the navy, were it deemed wise
policy to lay them up and discharge
their crews just because we have not
war on hand.
Another item conspicuous in the ac-
counts of the White House is one of
S25roo0 for the Presidents travelling ex-
penses, voted to him by Congress at
the last session. The enactment states
lHdl the sum is TO GeIrdV the travel
ing expenses of the President and his
invited guests" and the item was the
subject of heated debate in both houses
of Congress. Opponents of the appro-
priation declared 1t was an attempt
to indirectly increase the salary of the
chief executive. The law giving the
President this money to enable him to
go travelling was the direct outcome of
the aroused public sentiment against
transportation abuses
In years past it was not considered
improper for the President to travel in
special trains furnished by the rail
roads without cost to him or to the
Government, but this practice came in
for condemnation, along with the ac-
ceptances OF passes by members of
Congress and the judiciary. In re-
