The genius of Edison is to be devot-

Orvil]e Wright will be applied to the
perfection Of the heavier than air fly
ing machine.
The navy department has already
adopted a three inch gum, with disap-
pearing platform, for it's submarines,
and Chief Constructor Taylor is pre-
pairing a stronger protective net for
battleships to minimize the danger
from torpedo attack. The plans for
this net, which can be raised and low
cred, have already been practically
completed.
The department is, considering also
the adoption of sea sleds as naval
scouts. These vessels are very shall
low and have a guaranteed speed Of
ffty-six statute miles an hour. They
will carry ten or more men and carry
guns and are believed to be thorough

would be used also for defense against
submarines.

II have heard nothing direct from
Secretary Daniels. but I have had talks
with Thomas A. Edison and with army
and navy officers who realize the i'm
perative necessity Of preparing an ade-
quate air as we'll as sea fleet. The
board Of invention should work in har-
mony with the regular army and navy
departments. They are all right.
Whatever fault exists lies with con
gress in not providing sufficient appro-
priations. 1t, has granted a beggarly
million for experimentation and build

officers agree that we should have from
1000 to 1900 aeroplanes for immediate

MADISON GRAIN MARKET.


Sioux City, Jan. 29.-The cattle
supply today was considerably less
than the previous days this week. al
though still of fair volume, the esti-
mate calling for 1900, as against
1,151 a week ago and 2,13S the cor
responding day a year ago.
A better tone was in evidence in
the market for fat cattle. Some out
side orders were at hand and the To-
cal packers appeared to be anxious
to get down to business. When a
trading basis was reached the general
verdict vas that prices were 10 q 5c
higher than on yesterday on both
steers and butcher stock, while there
was an unchanged outlet for bulls,
stays and veals.
Conditions in the stocker and feed.
er market did not develop much
change. Weather was very cold and
with just a fair country inquiry thus
far this week the dealers held all the
advantages secured earlier in the SEES
sion. 1t was a slow market at prices
barely steady with the previous day
A surprise was sprung in the hog
department. Receipts continued or
the liberal order, but ever with a big
run at hand the course of the market
was higher, most sales being judged
to be a dime higher than on Wednes'
day. Both packers and shippers
were hungry for porkers and the
close was strong. Tops for the day
landed at $3.50, while the long strins
Of sales was at $685..
Better action was had for sheer
and lambs this morning and sales o
both kinds were quoted a dime
higher.

THANKFUL FOR JAPAN'S HELP

Expresses Appreciation.

in the legislative assembly Premier
Sir Richard Mcbride said 1t was In
cumbent on him gratefully to acknowl-
edge the unreasonable assistance
rendered by Japan during the recent
period of apprehension when the Ger
man fleet was menacing the Pacific.
He wished to remove false infer
ences that had been spread abroad
because the Legislature OF the prov
inee had taken steps to restrict Asia
tic immigration. These steps had
been taken purely for economic rea-
sons and conveyed no reflection what
ever on the Japanese people.

maid pending the outcome OF his wild
plotting to get possession of Ruth Gal
Ions precious papers. Her handsome
and cruel face was clouded with slow
wrath, and she clinched her hands
now and again till the knucklcs were
white.
For one thing, Mrs. Darnell loved
the plush OF life. Physical luxury was
her highest wish. the goal OF her iofti

At this moment Drake entered, pre-

pliments on his a%stuteness in failure.
and he expected nothing less from
Mrs. Darneil. He was ready to quit
the conspiracy.
Jeans quick instinct did not fall her,
and she instantly smiled on Drake and
murmured: You poor boy! Now tell

When he had finished his relation OF

emphasis on the shooting and his mar

WHEAT MARK AGAIN BROKEN
Gains OF Two Cents Quickly Follow
Opening.

Chicago, Jan. 28.-Dealings in wheat
expanded rapidly and high record
war prices continued to be broken.
Gains OF nearly 2 cents a bushel were
quickly made. July wheat which had
closed at s1.30B 9l.31, jumped to ST.
1874. May climbed to $1.47&.
New upturns in quotations at Liver
pool and predictions of a cold wave
possibly endangering the domestic
winter crop had much to do with the
fresh advance.
