to be one on the Canadian side. The corre-

American public to a perception that Canada
may fairly claim some important concessions

that no more niagara water may be taken than

Naturally too. for Canada is a young country

is material conquests. 1t claims the next

NEW WORK BY MR. MARC0yI.

Mr.. MarcOni described before the Royal So
cety in London the other evening n set Of
experiments in which he has recently been en-
gagged and about which the world has hitherto
heard little nothing. These related TO the
service which is performed when n horizontal
wire is substituted for the vertical wire which
has usually been regarded as an essential feat
urc Of n wireless telegraphic equipment He
has found that when connected with a transmit
ter the horizontal wire facilitates the progress
of Hertz waves in the direction in which il ex-
tends When it is employed in combinati ton
with a receiving outfit ii shows n remarla BILE
sensitveness. provided that if lies in an i'm
aSinary line reaching straight away from the
sending station. If il is shifted so that the
wire forms an angle Of 20 or 30 degrees with
the line. il ceases to be responsive With an
arrangement of the wire which conformed to
the rule here prescribed, he was able To nick
up messages on the west coast of Ireland more
than three hundred miles from his station at
roldhu.
Although the lecturer did not discuss the prac-
tical applications of his discovery. il is not un
likely that uses for it will yet be found II II
should ever be desirable to ascertain from n
land base the bearing of ship from which sig

Gets Land on Long Island on Which to
Erect Scene Factory.

Oscar Hammersten has purchased land at Laurel
Hill. Long Island. which to erect large studio
wherein will be made the scenery and properties

TIMBER FRAUDS.
Grand Jury Finds True Bills Against
Seven Persons for Frauds in WASH
ingtOn County.

The federal grand jury concluded
its labors Thursday afternoon by re-
turning five indictments, and was dis
charged. Three of these relate to
timber frauds near Meadows and
the nature of the others was not
disclosed. This makes total of
seven indictments for the term,
some of which contained two or more
parties, and some contain many
counts.
1t cannot. of course, be de6nit"'"
known whom these are against, but
suspicion points to A. w. Cook am
B. S. White as two of the parties,
and ii is said that one of the others
is against 7. B. Snyder, who was in
dicted with George Loe Wednesday
for conspiracy to defraud the govern
ment. The last indictment against
Snyder, it is presumed, is for subor-
nation of perjury.
When Snyder was first indicted it
was claimed by friends of his that he
was made scapegoat of parties who
had perjured themselves in making
proof on timber claims, and who had
cast the blame on him in order to
shield themselves. The action of the
officials in permitting him to return
home and furnish bonds later seems
to lend support to this view of the
case
