this famous university

New York, Nov. 23.-The associa-
ton of students with their professors
in the various branches of scientific
research is a growing tendency and
the attitude of such men as Prof. Mi
chael l. Pupin of Columbia, who also
holds the office of consul-general from
Servia in the United States, is notable
in this direction. In a recent com
munication, Prof. Dupin names Edwin
Armstrong, one of his former students,
as a close associate in electrical re
search for two years, declaring that
the student shares with him equally
the credit for perfecting 1.-The means OF
solving the problem of static interior
ence in wireless transmission The
recent inventions of Prof. Pupin with
their far-reaching results are no less
satisfactory than the fact that this
teacher is carrying along with him il
his researches a fine body of graduate
students whom he is training especial

work.

New York, Nov. 23.-The report that
the famous University Of Warsaw has
been re-opened by the German govern
ment officials since the fall of that
famous Polish city is confirmed by
information received here. There are
three faculties-law and political
science, philosophy and history. and
mathematics and natural sciences.
The institution which is thus re-
opened, was one of the seats of learn
ing in Europe for a period of several
centuries. The downfall of the Polish
nation and its separation into states

SEATTLE DOCK BURNS
Blaze Believed to Have Been Work Of
German Spies.

Seattle, Wash.-Close upon the re-
ports that secrets agents Of German
persuasion have planned to dynamite,
burn and otherwise destroy or delay
shipments from this country to the
allied nations at war, and the arrest
and confession of one such agent In
New York, comes the destruction by
fire, probably incendiary, of pier IA,
at Seattle, with a big loss of incoming
and outgoing shipments for British
ports.
Some local reports attribute the
fire to German spies. and the explo-
sion of dynamite in the harbor here
last spring gives their theory prece-
dent. 1t is said that spies represent
ing the warning nations keep check
on all shipments out of this port, con-
signed to Europe, and extra precau-
tions are being taken by local police
and by private shipping firms to pre-
vent fires or explosions.
The destruction of pier IA involved
a loss of nearly one million dollars to
cargoes stored on the dock.

lack of a proper selling organiza-

troll the export trade, with especial
reference to the shipping end, and
declared that he had reported on this
matter to the government. AS the

of the Honorable Ragsdale as an adj
vocate of direct taxation. Direct tax
alton is based upon sound economic
principle, and is advocated by those
who look forward to clean, wise, and
inexpensive government. Such advO-
Gates do not, however, take kindly to
the war business. Hence, it would
seem that Ragsdale is, to some degree
at least, another of those who have
spilled the beans, since there will be
no cooperation for big navy by
those who are devoted to the direct
taxation idea.
Moreover, the people generally will
have an intensified distaste for the
whole war business and all that per-
tains thereto when they hear the
bugle call to riotous slaughter and
at the same time feel the immediate
and positive pressure of several dol
lars to the square inch on the pocket
never-war being not the least ex-
pensive diversion, even from the mon
etary standpoint, in which cultured,
refined, scientific, Christian people
may indulge.
Warships cost from two to fifteen
million dollars apiece, as an initial
investment, not to mention upkeep.
Mere trifles, of course, still it may
seem, to common people, like being a
bit reckless with small change to have
enough of them loafing around all
over Christendom to clutter up things
impressively. Such a navy, and
proportionate army, could no doubt be
maintained for couple of million
dollars a day, if we take no account
of lusty pension list which might,
mayhap, arise. More small change, of
course, but not to be despised, withal.
Even the mere shots fired from the
larger guns cost from $1,000 to
ST, 900 apiece, the former equalling
the cost of a comfortable home and
the latter the cost of good farm for
each and every shot. Or. putting it
in another way, four farmers could
almost pay for firing one Of those
cheaper. piker guns one time. by
giving up their average net cash labor
returns for one year. Or, by working
only ten years, any millhand, at the
average wage Of five hundred dollars
a year. could easily pay for one Of the
high class $4,000 torpedo shots.
Meanwhile. of course, these patriotic
ones might nourish themselves on
substantial dreams Of those large and
loafing battlships and the good these
would be doing. and the peace. pros
perity and love which they would
command. And the aforementioned
Honorable Ragsdale il apparently
we'll satisfied In the conviction that
the dear people will do these very
things and others needful, Of their
own free will, and that congress-
should straightway compel the dear
people to cheerfully do these things-
OF their own free will.
Be all that as it may, AZ previously
remarked, all sorts of men are evil
IDENTIFY required to make q congress.
and all sorts Of ideas to fill the mind
of a congressman-some kinds OF
congressman at any rate.

And why is this financing proposal
of his asinine? Well, mostly for the
reason that people will not pay direct
taxes for things they do not like. and,
despite the joyless jeremiads of the
jingoese jawsmiths, people do not like
war and the costs of war acroutre-
ments-if they have to pay for them
and know that they are paying for
them.

BUSINESS IN TIES BETTER,
Many Cargoes Soon Will Leave Pc.

After moro than year Of dull business
in railroad ties on the Potomac river,
Washington dealers, who have many
thousand dollars tied up in the business,
report 1t is awakening, and the late sum-
mer and fall will see many cargoes Of
ties leave Potomac points for Philadel-
phia. New York and Boston. In addition
to the water-borne traffic in ties. large
quantities of them will be sent from Alex
andria by rail to points not reached by
water. L. A. Clarke & Son Of this city

In the coming month, and they now have
the barge Lucretia In Upper Machodoc
creek taking aboard about $4,000 ties, a
Dougherty barge in Aqua creek to load
about 10000 ties. the barge j. J. McNally
at a river shore taking aboard about
10000 ties and the schooner Mildred in
Nonini loading about $500 ties These
cargoes will all be taken to Philadelphia.
In addition to the vessels named. two
barges are at Quantico, Va, loading, and
the barge Rancocas recently left there for
a northern port with more than 10000

WILL CARRY COAL SOUTH.
Consolidation Company Barges t
Bring Back Phosphate Rock.

Two Of the big barges used by the
Consolidation Coal Company in the car
rying of soft coal from this city and
Baltimore to New England points have
been chartered by Baltimore concern
to carry coal from Norfolk to Port
Tampa and to bring back phosphate
rock to Baltimore. The steamer Charles
F. Mayer also has been chartered for
the trip and she will carry full cargoes
in both directions and will tow the
loaded barges.
This is said to be the first time in the
history Of the big barge coal traffic
that barges Of the Consolidation COM
pany have carried cargoes to south At
lantic ports. Their endeavors hereto
fore have been confined to coal trans
portation from the Chesapeake to New
England points. returning light, though
an occasional cargo OF ice or other ma
terial is brought from northern ports
to Baltimore or this city. Shortage in
tonnage in the phosphate rock trade.
caused by so many big schooners hav-
ing gone into the trade to Pernambuco
Rio or the river Plate, has caused the
chartering Of these vessels at H.. high
freight rates.
