TEXAN WON'T EXPLAIN.
BAILEY WILL SAY NOTHING
ABOUT MISSING LORIMER
PAPERS.
Rescnts Call for Eyidcnce--Says That
He Won't Have Anything to Do
With Trial of Brodcrick I'm Illi-
nois.

Washington. March 14.-Because
the authorities of Sangamon county,
Illinois, issued a subpoena for him in
connection with the proceedings
against Senator Holstlaw, Senator
Bailey of Texas probably will 1. AXE
no explanation relative to the disap-
pearance in the senate chamber here
of the affidavit of Mr.. Newton, the
bank clerk, and the Holstlaw bank
deposit slip. concerning which there
was much discussion during the pen
dency in the senate Of the resolution
to vacate the seat of Senator Lorimer
of Illinois.
Associated Press was in error in send
ing from Washington last Saturday
the dispatch that he was at work on
"a statement concerning the disap-
pearance of the papers.
Before the senate adjourned" said
Mr.. Bailey, Senator Cummins told me
that he had been asked to make an
affidavit himself reciting that he had
received that paper and delivered 1t
to me. and asked me also to make
an affidavit that / had received II
from him and handed it TO Senator
Tillman, who had in turn handed it
to some other senator who desired to
see 1t. l very readily told Senator
Cummins that / would make the affi-
davit and Saturday afternoon Senator
Borah told me that he had received
telegram from Senator Cummins
asking me TO prepare and send the
affidavit. l Immediately prepared it
and delivered 1t to Senator Borah to
be sent to Senator Cummins."
The senator went on to say that
after he had given the affidavit to Mr.
Borah he saw for the first time a
news dispatch saying that subpoena
had been issued for him in SPRING
field. ILL.,, and on Sunday sent a tele-
gram to Senator Cummns reading:
II received your message through
Senator Borah yesterday afternoon
and promptly prepared tho affidavit,
which delivered 10 him for trans
mission 10 you. Later in the after
noon l read statement that the
States attorney OF Cangamon county
had procured "a subpoena duces tecum
for me and If that is true / desire
you to return my affidavit to me at
once and under no circumstances will
consent for the prosecuting attor-
ney at Springfield to have 1t. OF
course. he perfectly understands that
Illinois could not issue a subpoena for
persons outside Of her jurisdiction
and therefore the application for It,
IL made. was a contemplate piece of
petty politics.. If the district attor-
ney there had honestly desired my
presence he could have secured ii by
a simple and courteous request"

Preside. Texas, March 1l.--via
Marfa. Texas. March ti.---The insur-
gent army under Gen. sanchez has
surrounded Ojinaga and a longe range
battle has been In progress since yes
terday noon. Sanchez has demanded
the surrender OF the town.
At noon yesterday the insurgent
army. numbering about 500 men. ar
rived from Mulato and took position
on the hills surrounding Ojinaga. The
artillery opened tho action from the
town. but there were no causualties.
Gen. Sanchez sent a message to Gen.
Luque OF the federal force. inviting
him to como into the open and fight
In order that non-comoatants In the
town might not be endangered Luque
answered the message with two
shrapnel shells that burst In the ranks
OF the rebels. but did no damage.
sarohez made no attempt to rush
the town. but extended his lines just
beyond rifle range and during the
night detachment crossed the Con-
eho river and closed the road to the
west. The federals nave only one
way to escape. across the Rio Grande
To the American side.
r. s. McCoombs. a Scottish soldier
OF fortune killed two federal sentries
during the night and obtained their
guns.
At daybreak the federals again
opened with their cannon. The insur-
gent lines had approached within
range and during the day there has
been a continuous exchange OF vol
leys.
Sanchez announces his intention of
starving out the garrison Ojinaga Is

able Ia place them on the moon, as
they did when they sent them only ten
miles above the earth.
The experiments mentioned above
have suggested the question whether
the air continues to be air. in the
sense i'm which we understand IL. at
a very great elevation from the earth.
The diminution Of temperature is 50

four hundred degrees Fahrenheit below

But at far less extreme degrees of

the pincipal constituents Of air have

solidified. What. then. is the condition
of the air at heights where the temper

Answer has been made to this uues-
ton that the air there loses its case.
Gus condition and becomes changed
into a series Of minute crystals or drops
which follow the earth in its motions
through space. and are constantly vap
orized when falling in regions where
the temperature is somewhat above
their point Of liquefiaction or evapora,-
ton.
All of which reminds US Of the as
tonishing effects produced BY temper
ature. On the earth iron is solid in
the sun 1t is a vapor The air we live
in is gaseous at and near the surface
of the globe; but il the suggestion adj
vanced by the French experinenters
is correct. at an elevation Of a few
miles above the ground air is either
liquid or solid or both.

were furnished with automatic pens
driven by clockwork, by means of
which diagrams of the changes of
pressure and temperature that the bal
loon experienced We're obtained. At
the feight of about seven and three
fourIhs miles the thermometer marked
a temperature Of sixty degrees Fab
renheit below zero. Then the ink in
the registering pens of both the Their
mometer and the barometer became
frozen, and the records were inter
rupted.
the ink thawed again. and at the ten
mile level the automatic records were
renewed. The temperature registered
there was only about six degrees be-
low zero. The increase of temperature
is ascribed to the effect of the UNI
coluded sun heating the air in the
basket that contained the Instruments
The lowest record of the barometer was
one hundred and three mil1imeters. or
a trifie more than four inches.
Attention was called to the fact that
the density of the air at the height of
ten miles, where the balloon remained
during most of the afternoon. is less
than that existing upon the plains Of
the moon, on the assumption that the
atmospheric density on the moon is
proportional to the force of gravity at
the surface of that orb.
If this is correct, then the instru-
ments would have behaved about the
same if the experimenters had been

or about ten miles. There were no peo-
pie in the balloon, but IT carried a
variety of self registering instruments
designed to record the temperature, the
atmospheric pressure, etc. The little
balloon was started on its lofty trip
about noon when the air was remark
ably still and clear. 1t rose rapidly.
and in three quarters of an hour had
attained an elevation of ten miles, at
which height it remainedf for several
hours.
IL was there subjected to an atmos-
pheric pressure only about one eighth
as great as that at the surface of the
earth, and It is explained that its float
ing for so long a time at a constant
height was due to the fact that the
temperature does not vary sensibly
with the elevation Of a floating body
after the latter has attained an altitude
where seven eighths of the atmospheric
pressure Is lacking and where there
remains no trace Of water vapor
But toward six o'clock, when, with
the decline Of day, the temperature
began to fall rapidly. the balloon start

a gentle motion which did not disturb
