WINS PRIZE FOR
|NTENSEST COLD
KNOWN TO MAN
Hollander Reduces HeIium to a
Liquid at 27l Degrees Cent?
grade, Solving Problem.
Special Cable to Tho American.

LEYDEN, Holland, Jan. TO-
Kammerlingh Onnes. who recently
won the $4,000 Nobel prize for phys
les for 1918, has spent twelve years
trying to liquefy helium, the last gas
which still resisted the greatest cold
as yet experimentally produced.
1t was the one gaseous element OF
our planet which refused to yield
to all efforts to put it in liquid form
In his laboratory here Onnes attacked
the problem from the point Of view
OF theory. When his mathematical
investigations were complete he
started to experiment.
He first produced a temperature of
80 degrees cent. by liquid methyl
chloride, then los degrees to --165
degrees cent by ethylene. Liquid
oxygen then gave him tempera lures
from -1S3 to -217 degrees cent.
Hydrogen furnished the next step
-255 to -259 degrees cent.
Then his actual operations with
helium began. 1t was compressed to
7b atmospheres and cooled in a bath
of liquid hydrogen, and at -259 de-
grees the helium condensed.to a blu
ism liquid whose temperature, on
boiling, fell to- -271 degrees cent.
This Is two degrees above the abso-
lutte zero which, according to theory,
Is the lowest temperature attainable.
Astronomers She that the tenn
perature Of interplanetary space Is
about 800 degrees cent, degree of
cold which has thus been exceeded in
the laboratory.
To produce these extremes of tenn
perature 1t is necessary to work with
minute quantities Of gas and to use
excessively fragile and delicate ap-
paratus.
In the upper atmosphere of the sun
new element, coronium, has been
discovered. 1t Is probable that this
element exists, though never isolated,
In our atmosphere. Some day this
may be accomplished, and the prob
lem Of liquefaction will arise new.

Countess Alexandra, has failed tc
end this unseemly dispute, which has
continued since the death Of the
master.
The facts in the case are simple
enough. Count Tolstoy left all his
manuscripts to his daughter, but
while living he had presented to his
wife vast quantity of letters and
papers. She deposited them with the
Historical Museum in Moscow for
safety.
However, the daughter, who al
ways was at variance with her
mother on the advice Of Tchertkoff,
who acted as a kind of literary agent
to Tolstoy, and exercised an un-
bounded influences upon him In the
later years of his life Immediately
laid claim to these documents. For
the sake of avoiding unpleasantness,
the curators of the museum refused
to deliver manuscripts to either
mother or daughter.
Appeals to Minister.
Countess Sophy appealed to the
Minister OF Public instruction, Stat-
ing that she was prepared to present
the documents to the nation If allow =
ed to make a copy of them for pur
poses of the life she Is writing. He
replied that she had better sue the
museum.
Countess Alexandra appealed tc
the Car, who refused her petition
because her mothers rights might be
prejudiced. There was no way out
but legal wrangle.
The first court of the Senate dis
agreed. The matter, therefore, was
taken before a full committee of the
Senate, which now also has failed tc
agree, 20 deciding in favor of Coun-
tess Sophy, while the remainder were
of the opinion that the matter was
outside their jurisdiction.
Librarian Gets Copies.
Apparently the Car himself will
now give the final decision, but ar
interesting fact has just become
known. Professor Charles Wright
brother of the famous physician
Sir Almroth Wright, and head of the
London Library, has been handed by
Countess Sophy copies of certain
manuscripts and asked to decide
what was best fitted for publication
during the present generation.
