scientific expedition which has
spent six years in the wilds Of the
Andes, says the New York Sun, has
ljnst returned to France, and Colonel
Bourgeois, it's chief, has given some
remarkable details of its experiences
1t was organized to make new set
| of observations from which to verify
the length OF degree on the equator
the unit upon which the French
standard of measurement and the met
ric system are based.
The site chosen for the work was
the neighborhood of Quito, Ecuador.
1t was SO high up in the mountains
that although in the very center Of
the torrid zone the men lived under
arctic conditions The party consis-
ted of ten commissioned and twenty
seven non-commissioned officers. With
three exceptions the entire party spent
the entire six years in the work One
of those who gave up was Command
ant Massenet, who preceded Colonel
Bourgeois at the head of the expedi-
ton.
Loneliness was one of the things
the men had to fight amid fields Of
snow and ice. The country below
them was often invisible from clouds
hanging about the mountains. Yet
their situation differed from that Of
Arctic explorers in this respect, that
they knew thousands of people were
within comparatively each reach. The
temptation at times to descend to the
seacoast cities was, therefore, almost
or course, the men did not spend !
the whole time in the mountains. This
would have been almost impossible
because they had not merely the rigor
of the cold to contend against, but also
the enervating effects of the rarifled
atmosphere of the mountains. The
average height at which they lived
and worked was $4,000 feet above sea
evel Cooking was difficult al that
and the proper feeding of
he men was one of the most difacult
problems. Another practical difficulty
vas securing servants and laborerss
rhe natives consented to go into the !
ills only at high pay and on urgent
and they deserted at the I
east provocation. The winters were
trying. sBanas or wolves
wandered about the camp and de- ,

Notwithstanding the obstacles, sew b
nty-four geodetic stations were erec- e
ed. A chain of geodetic and astro- t
omical observations covering the en-
ire six years were secured, including @
he establishment of the meridian of $
uito with nearest approach to scien-
fc accuracy that is possible. The II
error, 1t is said, is infinite n

THE LOBBYIST At WASHINGTON.
Every Cause Represented, From Pro-
hibition to Free Seeds.

The number and the strength of the
Hobbies which are seeking to influence
legislation at Washington are empha-
sized by ellison Gardner in an article
In Success Magazine" in which he re-
fers TO the large crops of lobbyists as
In effect constituting Third House"
OF Congress-
There are the prohibition and the
liquor Hobbies. he says. butting heads
at every session: there is the free art
lobby the lobby of the Pilots Trust OF
Chesapeake Bay. and DIR. Theron C.
Stearns lobbying for adulterated foods.
There is free seed lobby and a lobby
against free seeds; there are Hobbies
maintained by government depart
ments. and Hobbies against the govern
mental Hobbies.
There is a reason for all this growth
and power of the special interest. and
its corresponding growth and power
in the. Third House. For forty years
the United States has been in a period
of Industrial development. In 1854 the
country was young; a great war had
depeleted Its wealth, and the chief bus
mess Of the government was to en-
courage business. This for forty years
the government has done: The voice
Of "the interest" has been paramount
But that period has ended. The fos-
tered child has become a giant The
special interest no longer asks: il de-
mands. The power OF government has
been attacked and throtled by the ALI
ed special interest And the people
they who are the source Of ali power
and the end Of all sovernmeBt-have
been scorned and disrezarded.
But the people are not downed. They
have the power and they know the
government belongs Of right to them.
They know that favors they have
granted to the special interests have
not developed into vested rights they
know that Individual freedom. peace
and profit be considered for a change.
OF government by and for the special
interests there has been. enough. The
new era is an era of the people.
The sign Is good. the prospect full
of hope Protest and agitation show
an awakening of the public conscience
and this is but another name for pat
riotism. Things are better for expo
sure. Light Is sanitary Muck well
raked and subjected 10 the sunshine
grows fine crops.

THE $50, 900, 900 SUIT

Continued from page One)
collateral for his loan, the receipt for
26, 900 shares in the Pennsylvania Su-
gar Refining Company. This was Hip
pies property that had been placed
with Segal as security.
In an agreement made between Kis-
sci and Segal at the time Segals loan,
which was for $1,250,000, was secured,
it was stipulated that the lenders
should have the voting power of that
stock. An agreement alleged to have
been drawn up between K!ssel and Sc
gal setting forth all these facts is an
nexed to the complaint. This agree
ment, it is set forth, was made on De-
cember 80, 1903.
The sum and substance of the COM
plant is that the American Sugar Re-
filming Company secured control of a
Philadelphia rival, elected a control
ing lot of directors and thus was able
to shut down the plant. Besides man,
ing the American Sugar Refining Com
panv as defendant the complaint also
names Henry o. Havemeyer, John Z.
Parsons, Gustav E. Kissel, Walter d.
Robinson, George L. Trigg and Morris
J. Werner as individual defendants.
Mr.. Havemeyer is the pres dent and
a director of the American Sugar Re
fning Company. Mr.. Parsons a direc-
tor and vice president and the four
others are named through the fact that
they were elected directors in the
Philadelphia concern. 1t is alleged in
the suit that all of these individual
defendants conspired to put an end to
the activity of the Philadelphia cor
poration.
The complaint is sworn to by Will
liam Howard Ramsey as president or
the Pennsylvania Sugar Refining Co.
1t is set forth in the complaint that
Segal negotiated the loan from Kissel
for use in promoting his Champion
Construction Company. Attached to
the papers in the suit is an agree
ment signed by Segal as TREASURER,
Thomas B. Harmed as president and
William H. Whiteside as secretary OF
the Champion Construction Company.
giving the lenders of the S1,250,0Oo
power to use the $4,000 shares of the
Pennsylvania Sugar Refining Company
according to the agreement drawn up
between Segal and Kissel. In addi-
ton to this collateral Segal gave 1000
first mortage bonds of $1,000 each on
his Majestic Apartment House Compa-
nv of Philadelphia and also 500 first
mortgage bonds of $1,000 each that Sc
gal held in the Philadelphia sugar con-
Germ.
According to the complaint the Penn
syIvania Sugar Refining Company had
a total authorized capital stock of So
O0O. 900 in 80, 900 shares of 800 par value
each The stock was issued and out
standing in the hands of various par
ties and the corporation held valu-
able tract of land in Philadelphia,
wharf on the Delaware river railroad
sidings and a plant erected and COM
pleted for operation.
