LUMINOUS IN LONDON
Watching Crowds Saw Wonder
full Sunset, Followed by Storm.
BRILLIANT BANDS OF LIGHT
Thousands Convinced That They
identified the Comets
Tail.

London, May 19.-The eve Of the royal
Pageant was marked by a wonderful
sunset tonight, followed quickly by a
thunderstorm There were thousands of
watchers in quest Of the broad, luminous
hand which could be identified with the
comets tail They were rewarded by
a vivid and glorious spectacle Long
streanners of light ran upward and out
ward from the setting sun.
In accordance with the forecasts, the
head of. the comet was invisible, but the
bands were remarkably brilliant. Prob
ably the spectacle would not have at
tracted attention if the newspapers had
not advertised it in advance.
As it was, thousands were convinced
that they had seen the comets tail,
especially rs there was a sudden cleo
trical disturbance and downpour Of rain,
as there had been in the early morning.
when the earth was supposed to be
passing through the gaseous tract. The
phenomenon was of short duration, as
the western sky rapidly clouded over.
but while it lasted It was most brilliant

VIEWS At WASHINGTON
Error in Calculation Blamed for
DELAYED Syzygy.

Washington, May 1e.-The failure Of the
earth 10 pass through the tail of the comet
as vas expected last night is merely an
error in theoretical calculation, say the
astronomers az the United States Naval
Observatory There is no doubt, however.
they say, that the earth passed into less
dense portion OF the tail at o'clock this
morning The error IN calculation was IN
doubtedly due. they think, 10 the variance
Of the degree Of the curve OF the tail from
what they had estimated il.
None Of the scientists here IS ready to
agree that the earth will not pass through
the tail at all, as has been advanced by
Professor Campbell, OF Lick Observatory.
They are inclined to the opinion that the
earth is passing through the tail, and base
that view on their observations. which dis
closed what they believed TO be e less dense
part of the tail early to-day.
A large group Of solar spots has formed
on the suns visible disk since yesterday
noon. IS shown by the daily solar photo
graph taken by George II. Peters, OF the
observatory. They are in south latitude
and in q position corresponding TO rota-
tonal displacement Of two days from the
suns eastern limb. These, together with
the large groups observed az the observa-
tory in the last week, which are also in the
Southern Hemisphere j. is stated form an
unusual condition for this period in the
sun spot cycle

UP TO WHlTRIDGE'S MEN
Many Of Their Statements Dis
r,royed nv p G n

While the Public Service Commission
has sent no formal reply 10 the letter of
Frederick W. Whitridge, receiver for the
Third Avenue Railroad system, an in
vestigation made by the officers of the
commission yesterday disproved some Of
the charges made by Mr. Whitridge
against Public Service inspectors.
While the reports forwarded by Mr..
Whitridge gave no names, the details
given by the sleuths allowed the identif-
cation of the men referred to and other
portions Of the report fixed the dates OF
the sIeuthing. It developed that two OF
the inspectors referred TO were off duty
on the days when they were followed by
Mr.. Whitridge's Third avenue detectives.
so that their movements were OF no in
terest to the commission.
George p. Hammond, formerly of Dis
trict Attorney Jerome's Investigating staff,
turned up bright and early at the Office of
the commission yesterday and explained
that he was the man who called at a
saloon and left & letter with the bartender
while Mr.. Whitridge's detectives were
watching.
Hammond was not working as an in
spector of service, however, but was secur-
ing consents for property on Whitlock
avenue for the Broadway-Lexington ave
nue. subway route in The Bronx. The
saloonkeeper had been away on the oc-
casion Of two previous calls, and Ham
rnond therefore took along with him a
blank consent paper which he left for the
saIoonkeeper to sign.

ter's Carelessness. It Is Said.

Havana. Cuba, May 1e.-The fatal ex-
plosion Of thousands of pounds OF dyna-
mite at the barracks at Pinar del Rio yes
terday. is officially declared to have been
due &c the carelessness Of a carpenter en-
gagged in repairing defective cases OF dyna-
mite which We're being loaded on a wagon
for transport to the railway station.
The carpenter was in the act Of mailing
the lid on broken case when the .dyna-
mite exploded, detonating the rest of the
dynamite on the wagon and instantly kill
ing all in the courtyard and blowing down
the wall of an adjacent store room in which
the remainder Of the dynamite was depos-
tied This precipitated a second explosion,
completing the destruction Of the buildings
The carpenters head was found quarter
Of a mile away from the scene OF the ex-
plosion
Already twenty-eight bodies have been
recovered from the ruins OF the barracks
The latest official returns received here an
dictate that the total fatalities may not ex-
coed thlrty-five. The injured number 1i5,
Of whom two have died in the hospital
The injuries of the great majority OF the
others are not considered serious.

WIRELESS HAD NO TROUBLE
Alleged Passage Through the
Comets Tail Left No Traces.

The passage Of the earth through the
tan OF HaIley's comet, which some scter1-
fists thought would affect the sending Of
wireless messages, had not the slightest
effect, as FAR as reports made yesterday in
dicated.
John Botton1ley, manager Of the Mar
conf Wireless Telegraph Company, said
that speaking wireiessiy. we don't know
that the comet has q tail. 1t has not af-
fected our system at all" The manager
of the De Forest Radio Telegraph Com
pany said that test between New York,
Chicago and Washington on Wednesday
showed no extraordinary atmospheric con-
6itions that interfered with wireless mes
sases. DR.. De Forest ordered all operators
OF the company 70 watch for celestial
music but none was reported
The operators Of the Western Union Iele-
graph Company, the Postal Telegraph
Cable Company and the New York Tele-
phone Company were told TO observe any
thing out of the ordinary, as the influence
Of the comet was an unknown quantity and
sun spots were expected. Appearance OF
sun spots and auroras and interference with
telegraph service are sometimes ceincident,
but such was not the case "Wednesday night

SHORT WEIGHT MEN
Inspector Makes More Fraud
Discoveries in BROOKLYN,

Complaints were made yesterday in
Brooklyn against six storekeepers OF that
borough on the strength OF report made
by Inspector Ellwood Hanson, OF the Bu-
reau Of Weights and Measures, who re-
Ported that they had given short weight to
their customers. Proceedings against them
viii be instituted by the bureau, which has
made similar complaints, based on one OF
its sealers reports against the Sheffield
Farms Slawson- Decker Mix Company.
Mr.. Hanson found the worst conditions

store was coated with sugar. which when
scraped off weighed one-ouarter Of an
ounce. -Four cne-pound bags OF powdered
sugar were ell short from one-quarter 10

SUSPECTS TAGGING TAIL
Lick Professor Thinks Collision
Nav Be Avoided.

San Jose, Cal, May ie.-Accordlng 10 Dr..
Campbell, Of Lick Observatory, there is a
possibility that the earth may not pass
through the comets tail after all. In a
statement issued to-day he said:
The tail was visible as soon as the moon
set II is probable that we shall miss
passing through the tail tonight because
il is tagging by several million miles. The
comets orbit is inclined to an angle with
the earths orbit, and IL is probable We
shall not pass through the tail CT all.
The diameter OF tbs tail at the point in
which we are especially interested-14. 0oa, 900
miles from the head-was about degrees.
If the tail st daylight had been almost IN
contact with the earth we should have ex-
pected the angular diameter TO be much
greater than II was. The tail was therefore
probably several million miles away, in
which case the earth and the tail did not
meet this morning
IF this meeting is delayed until tonight
then there can be little doubt the earth will
not pass through the tail at all, but VIII
pass to the south Of it. The reason for this
is simple. The tail lags behind in the plane
OF the comets orbit; the comets orbital
plans makes an angle of Is degrees with
the eerth's orbital plane; the retardation
Of the tail. therefore, draws it away from
the plane in which the earth is moving,
and the earth will pass TO the south Of IT,
The observed position Of the tail this morn
ing was appreciably further north than
that Of yesterday morning
This tagging of the tail produces an in
teresting situation. II We could have OBJ
served the entire comet this morning, We
should have seen the head of the comet
well below the sun and the tail extending
far above tlne.sun. We have been so nearly
in the plane Of the comets orbit during
the last fortnight that II has been in1poS-
sible to observe directly the tagging Of the
tail, for the curvature has been away from
US If the observer were situated out IN
space. far 10 the north or the south Of the
earth and the comet. he would undoubtedly
have been able 10 see the tail strongly
curved backward with reference TO the di-
rection or motion of the comet.
Our conclusions yesterday that the tail
was Tagging were based on the fact that
the angular diameter of the tail did not
increase SO RAPIDLY as It should have done
/ had the tail been pointing exactly away
from the sun

EXPECTS PASSAGE TODAY
Princeton Man Also Says Tail
May Not Touch Earth.

Princeton. N J, May 1e.-Professo-
Henrv Norris Russell, Of ttl& astronomical
cersrtrnent Of Princeton University, de-
dared today that, basing his calculatao1-s
On RE width OF the comets tail early To-
dev as compared With previous mornings
+he earth vas not near enough 20 pass
through the tail OF the comet this morning
but cry likely II will do so early tomorrow
"srsa N to-day the sky was brilliantly
clear. without trace Of moonlight or dawn
said Professor Russell The comets tan

snd no illumination could be seen IN the
western sky in spite Of careful search uIaoeC
very favorable conditions. The 7odiacal
light was visible n the SOUTHEAST, separator
from, the comets tail by a dark interval
about ten degrees in breadth
The tail was apparently between two ana

Professor Russell said tonight in REFER
s,,ce 70 the statement Of DR. Campbell thet
ths earth may rot pass through the ian OF
+he comet: Prom the appearance at Prince
+on this morning IL looked then as If II
we're Hkelv that we would pass through
the southern edge Of the tail. Professor
Campbell, however. observing three hours
later, would be IN q position 20 make q
more accurate estimate, and II may be that
re viii pass Just outside OF it He de-
-lared that " would be impossible to note
ANYTHING further about the comet until
about O'Clock tomorrow morning, OWING
70 the brightness Of the moon tonight
Professor Russell declared that the Spots
on the sun seen by Western astronomers
were q. typical group and not extraordinary
He added that the spots have nothing TO do
with +he comet The largest Of the spots,
Professor Russell said. was 1900 miles in
diameter. and the entire groun covered a
field Of about 10000 miles. =f
Professor Russell gave up his observa-
1ions AT g O'Clock tonight. owing to the
brightness Of the moon. He declares thai
tbs massage OF the earth through the
comets tail viii probably cause 2 much
greater curve in the latter than already
exists. The TACT that the curve in the tail
vas not noticed sooner is laid TO the fact
that il mas possible to see the tail only
from the side.
