also charged Ham with breach Of trust in
connection with the disappearance OF GER
tain mining shares. were halted by the
court. AS a consequence of these ne
gotiations Ham was ordered again placed
incOmmunicadO for ten days
Simpson and Ham and their attorneys
were in court. Hams attorneys were
prepared to hand over the money in full
settlement of the Simpson claim when the
transaction was called to .the attention
of the court. Judge Miramon declared
that such settlement would permit the
arrest of Simpson for compromising a
perjury. 1t developed that Simpson had
once given Ham power OF attorney,
which contained statements contradicting
testimony recently given in the present
case The court declined to permit the
withdrawal OF simpsons charge and or
dered Ham returned to prison incommuni-
cado

BORROWED 90 YEARS AGO
MAYBE SOCIETY WILL GET
BACK ITS STANDARD WEIGHTS.
Loaned Them to the Government in
1917 at the Request of
Thomas Jefferson.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, March 5.-After
ninety-three years the American Philo-
sophical Society may get back from the
federal government a set of standard
weights and measures. which it lent to
the coast survey in 1917. DR.. s. w.
Stratton, director of the national bureau
Of standards. in Washington, made an
address here last evening on his work
At the close of his lecture, which was
illustrated with views of the intricate and
delicate apparatus used in the labora-
tories of the bureau, when DIR. w. w.
Keen, the president, as usual, asked those
present if any one desired to ask the lee
turer any questions. DIR. l. Minis Hays,
the secretary. came forward with an aged
receipt, which he read.
1T should be known said DIR. Hays.
that this society from a very early pc
riod has been interested in standards of
weights and measures. In 1911 Thomas
Jefferson, then our President wrote
communication relative to a universal
standard. At his suggestion. the society
procured from Europe certain standards.
and / hold in my hand receipt dated
February s. 1917. for an iron meter, a
troy pound and other standards. which, at
the request or the mead or the depart
ment, were loaned to the coast survey.
The receipt declares that they shall be
surrendered on demand. 1t seems that
they must still be in Washington"
The officials at the bureau of standards
here Immediately recognized the descrip-
ton of the ancient weights loaned to
the coast survey ninety-three years ago
by the Philosophical Society of Phila-
delphia. They were unable TO say, how
ever, whether the weights would be re-
turned to the society.
l.. A. Fischer. assistant physicist. said
The weights in question were first
Philadelphia by Ferdinand r. Hassler,
who was a Swiss. and who brought
them to this country with him. Later
Mr. Hassler was made the first superin-
tendent of the coast survey. He then
borrowed the weights back from the
Philadelphia society for the use of his

POWDER ALL GONE.
Reason Given for Nicaraguan
Insurgents Retreat.
HAD WON TWO BATTLES
Rumor That Gen. Chamorro Has
Imprisoned Estrada and Proclaim
ed Himself President.

MANAGUA. Nicaragua, March 5.-Fol-
lowing their recent disastrous defeat the
revolutionary forces are reported to be
disbanding nearly 900 men having de-
serted in the vicinity of San Vicente
Within the past week.
The government authorities now admit
that the insurgents were victorious in
the battle of San Vicente and in the
fighting last week at Ell Morrito, a small
town on the coast of Lake Nicaragua,
east of Sanubaldo. and the retreat OF the
insurgents after these successes indicated
that their ammunition was scarce.
Rumors are current that Gen. Chamor-
TO. the insurgent leader. is anxious to
abandon the struggle, being disguised
with the lack of cooperation from SYM
pathizers in the province of Granada.
Estrada a Prisoner.
The government authorities today pub
lished a cablegram from Panama in
which it was announced that Gen.
Chamorro had imprisoned Gen. Estrada,
the provisional president, and had pro-
claimed himself president.
Deserters from the insurgent forces ar
irving at San Jose, province of Chon-
tales, say that the Bluefields garrison has
been reduced to twenty-five men. They
also declare that Gen. Estrada never
leaves the town and that his wife gives
all orders relating to the campaign.

- wireless message received at the rev.
enue cutter service, headquarters in the
Treasury from Capt. CantWell. comma nd
ing the revenue cutter Onondaga, states
that he has picked up the wreck OF the
schooner Asbury Fountain, twenty five
miles southeast Of Assateague light and
Is endeavoring to tow it into port. The

holds her. The cutter Mohawk. which
was also in search of the schooner, has
been communicated with and will join
the Onondaga in the effort to get the
Fountain into harbor.
