TALKING BY MAI"
NOW A POSSIBILITY
SCIENTIST DESCRIBES A "MEANs
OF COMMUNICATION suPE-
RIoR TO LETTER WRIT
ING"

That magnetism can be localized Is
the discovery which forms the basis
of the remarkable Invention known as
the telegraphone.
This machine performs Ave differ
ent functions: First. 1t receives die
tation; second, it reproduces the dIcta-
ton: third, it reproduces at a distant
point, the machine being under control
at that point: forth, 1t records CONVEX
satIons between two persons over the
commercial telephone lines without in
any way interfering with the operation
of those lines. and, fifth, 1t records
automatically, in the absence Of the
subscriber from the office, messages
coming over the line during such alb
sence. The machine being under the
absolute automatic control from the
ordinary performing function of the
telephone line, the ringing of the bell
starts the machine. the machine sends
signal over the line to the party talk
ing, notifying him that the machine
is running. taking down his message
and then automatically stopping.
Many business transactions are car
riod ON daily over the telephone, and
the day is at hand when telegrapho4e
records will be made of each and ev-
cry transaction and filed away for ref
erence. The telegraphone is destined
to take the place, largely. Of the pres
ent stenographer, and no business or
professional man will think of writ.
ing his business letters, lectures or
sermons.
Mr.. Poulson, the inventor, has in a
later machine replaced the cylinder
for the recording wires by steel disks
about Az inches in diameter and, about
1.2O OF an inch in thickness. The por-
liability OF these disks, the suscepti-
bilty of receiving records on both
sidest the instantaneous erasure Of
records at will and the absolute secre-
cy Of the subject mater of the record.
leads one to believe it will in the fu.
ture be. means of intercommunica
ton superior to letter writing.
The maehine that performs all the
wonders I have described is extreme.
Iy simple in construction. Imagine n
piece of fine steel wire stretched be.
tween two points, the coil of an cleo
tromagnet connected with the sec
ondary of an induction coil, the prl-
mary OF which is in circuit with a
mlcrophone and battery. This is the
telographone in It's primitive form.
On speaking into the rnicrophone. In
duced currents of electricity produce
continuous variations In the field
strength of the electromagnetic, and If
we slide the electromagnetic along a
steel wire, the magnetic fluctuations Of
the eTectro-magnet affect the steel
wire in the form of5varlab1e magnet In
tenslties. There have been impressed
on the steel wire unduIations Of mag
netlzation, kind of writing that is
permanent and which faithfully re-
cords the articulations OF the voice.

SLAUGHTERED BY YAQUIS
An Eye Wis1e7s Tells Of The Bloody
Scenes in Yaqui Land in Southern
Sonora.

Los Angeles, Cal. Dec. 26.-Colonel
y. b. Maxson. vice president of the
National Irrigation Congress and Sec
rotary of the board of education of
Reno, Nevada, who has been spending
few weeks in the state of Sonora.
Mexico, arrived at Los Angeles today
with a graphic story OF the massacre
Of Mexicans and whites which occur
red on Saturday at the little station VI
Lancho on the c. Y. r. and p. r. r.
According to the statement of Max
son, his train was stopped near Lam
cho and while there rumore We're re-
ceived that renegade Yaquis were on
the war path, and that the few people
in the neighborhoOd OF the station We're
in danger. The station master named
Thompson belittled the report and said
that he and his wife would remain at
their posts.
The train containing Maxson's party
had not left the station more than an
hour when the Yaquis descended on
the little party of Mexicans and Amer
leans and butchered four Thompson
and his wife escaped. by boarding n
work train which happened to pull in
after the four people had been killed.
Thompson and his wife defended
themselves behind the barricaded doors
of the station. AS the work train ap-
peared the Yaquis withdrew.
MaXson's train returned along the
track in an hour, to find the station
houses burned and demolished and
four bodies along the track still warm.
With the aid of others on the train,
they were given hasty burial While
the train was at the ruins of the sta
ton the Yaquis appeared at a distance
but did not come within range.
Not many miles along the road the
scene was duplicated. four more bodies
of MeXicans and Americans being dis
covered along the track. 1t was learn

had repulsed the attack of the OUT
laws with the loss of four of thei-
The survivors refused to leave
on the train and said they could stand
off the Indians until the next day
when the Rurales would arrive.

INSANE MURDERERs.

Young Sloan. whom an oregon jury
last week found to be too insane to be
fit for the hangman, discovered yester-
day that there was an intermediate
place between the gallows and perfect
freedom. He was sane enough, we are
informed. TO manifest his disappoint-
,nent at his unexpected discovery.
We believe that law especially re-
lating 10 those in behalf of whom the
plea OF insanity is successfully inter-
posed in murder trials should be framed
50 Us 10 reduce the frequency of the
plea.
There should be legislation provid-
ing for the detention Of insane muir
derers. if not for life for a long period.
The power of the usual pardoning
authorities to release such murderers
should be removed. Such legislation is
not suggested solely for the punish
Tnent Of those who escape conviction on
the plea of insanity but because the
safety of the community would be bet
ter served This is a peculiar and very
subtle form of insanity and therefore
the more dangerous. The victim of 1t
has gone along for years without be-
traying the slightest symptom of
mental ambulance. Then his hands are
found suddenly stained with human
blood. There Is at first no suspicion
of insanity. That springs up when
there seems no other suitable defense.
His mental condition throughout the
trial is q matter of doubt which is not
resolved until the jury takes charge of
his case. Even then the doubt Is sell
dom wholly removed. but the jury
gives him the benefit of it and he is
either set free at once or committed to
an asylum TO be released in the usual
manner.
The defendant may or may not be
insane at all If not. no term of i'm
prisonment can be too long, and if he
IS really insane any term less than
the number Of his remaining years is
too short. Elusive insanity of this
kind is the most to be guarded against.
There's no telling when it will find
second manifestation in homicide.

THE CONGRESSIONAL PER DIEM. I

THE CONGRESSIONAL PER DIEM.
Congressman Gaines believes that a
congressman should earn his per diem.
if not by the sweat of his brain, at least
by his response to the roll call. HIS
intention of introducing a bill in con-
gress setting out his views is obviated
by his discovery of fifty year old law
of the same effect or more properly of
the same purpose for it does not appear
TO have been OF any effect.
Congressman have gone ahead col
lecting their salaries at the rate of
365 days in the year. regardless of
their Whereabouts during the session.
1t is hard to believe that this violation
OF a law intended to compel attention
TO congressional duties has been unin-
tentionally overlooked by all congress
men since 1894 when it was brought
rather prominently to the front in an
effort to repeal it.
Mr.. Gaines now threatens TO see If
he cannot secure the enforcement OF
the law. That object ought not to be
hard to obtain. If congress refuses or
neglects to obey the laws Of congress
why should the rest of us be such
scrupulous law abiding citizens as we
have been under the impression that
laws are made to be obeyed?

THE CONGRESSIONAL RECORD.


1t looks like a magnificent burst OF
enterprise for the Congressional Rec
ord to present as a novel feature SER
ials from the pen Of President Roose-
welt. covering a wide range of topics
Facetious paragraphs in the daily
press suggested that in the long and
varied message on the meeting of con-
Efess every subject of human interest
was exhausted except the winter
prophecy of the goose-bone; yet the
pages of the Record have been crowded
ever since with contributions from the
White House on fresh and important
subjects. Still others are promised
from day to day. This feature will
doubtless induce many readers of the
Record to renew their subscriptions for
the coming year.
II is undeniable that there is a GER
tain heaviness in the matter of the
congressional daily. Except for occas-
ional contributions from the unre-
strained Tillman there are few breaks
in its mortal dullness. One of the
hardships of the editor is to leave to
print" with which congressional con-
tributors have favored themselves This
impairs the value of its reports of pro-
ceedings. Another handicap is the re.
vision Of the reports by the members
OF congress. When there is a spirited
debate and the members lose control
of their tempers an accurate account
would lend much to the hilarity Of the
nation; but the lively passages ate
eliminated in order to preserve the
parliamentary tone Considering its
many disadvantages the Record does
fairly well. It is TO be praised for re-
sisting the efforts to induce it to use
the Carnegie orthography.
