h. found In 90 small a space What the group
represents is a number of fishes which are IN
nature scattered over vast area ana throusn
great height of water. here brought together Tor
museum purposes into few square feet OF space.
Each fish is reproduced accurately with It's phos-
phorescent pores and tentacles as these are
known to exist. With one or two exceptions
they are enlarged several times, as the hshes
: themselves are very small And since it is known
that the ehosphorescent organs do not glow
with a steady light. the illumination OF the group
has been arranged so as to have these luminous
organs flash ntermittently Furthermore. the
installation is arranged that one may view
the fishes for a few seconds in full light. as II
in synoptic exhibit, and then see them, when
the light goes out as they are supposed II appear
in the darkness of the profound depths, lit up
only by their phosphorescent organs.
Near the top of the group is seen fish which
lives on the border line between the region of
dimness and total darkness. Many of the fishes
living in this region not of a uniform somber
hue, but are brilliantly colored. Neoscopelus is
one of these The body is "one dazzling sheen
of purple and silver and Furnished gold. amid
which is sparkling constellation of luminous
organs" (Acock).
The glowing fish in the center is Barathronus
daphanus. small fish known from a single
specimen which was drcdged in the Indian
at depth of a little over four-ifths OF a
mile. The model of 1t is and onehalf times
the natural size. The phosphorescent fish with
the curious long tail iat the right is Gigantura
III.
This brought up from depth OF four
hfths of mile in the Gulf of Guinea on the
west coast Of Africa. The model is twice the
natural size.
The two dark fishes with enormous ga ping
mouths tncar the top. at the right are Gastros
tomus bairdi. This species is commoner than
some of the others. number of specimens being
In several museums. The models OF II in the
group are copied life-size from a specimen In the
museum. The species in the Atlantic
ocean. Eear the American coast. in the path of
ocean liners. Specimens have been dredged from
depth of nearly three miles
Near the bottom of the group at the left hand
side is seen an eellike fish with a line of lit.up
pores This is an enlarged model of Styoph-
thalmus paradoxus. small silvery fish widely
distributed In all the oceans, whose young also
are known The generic name II bears was given
it in allusion to the fact that the eyes are
perched on long slender tentacles The species
ranges from a depth of little less than mile
to two and one-haf miles. Another form with
tentacles is Gigantactis vanhoeffenj a species
typical of many deep-sea fishes which have a
tentacle. terminating in luminous organ at.
tached to the head. This tentacle serves as a
lure for attracting prey. The present species

Orange Man Wants Speyer &

A temporary injunction was issued
Yesterday against the firm OF Speyer

Federal District Court, restraining the
concern from distributing among the
participants in a recent loan to the
Southern republic customs house re-
CENTS claimed by the bondholders Of

panv. Erskine Hewett, of Orange,
". J., and other bondholders are the
complainants. The injunction viii be
argued on November 29.
According TO Mr.. Hewett, who was
represented in court by the law firm OF
Masten & Nichols, Of 49 Wall Street
on June Il. 1895, a contract was drawn
nm between himself and his associates
and the Ecuador government providing
for the organization in the United
States of a company TO construct and
operate a railroad between Guayaqu'l
and Quito. The capital OF the concern
was TO be Sl2,2S2, 900 in 6 per cent gold
bonds. OF the preferred and common
stocks, 40 per cent were to be dellverei

public, the remainder 70 be retained oy

The principal and interest OF the
bonds we're to be guaranteed by tcua-

Of the road, the contract provided, the
company was 10 operate 1t for seventy
five years, at the conclusion oil wnlen
period il was to become the property
of the government. BY an agreement
in 1908 II was arranged that the in

The holders Of prior lien bonds have a
preferential claim of S21l,26 on the
railway and all its belongings, as well
as on the customs revenues.
Mr.. Hewett continues that since, 1907
the interest has been paid irregular,ly'
and since 1912 not at all. He also
alleges that since 1910 the government
has made no deposit Of customs re-

NEW FRISCO SYNDICATE
Feature of Plan Is $50 Assessment on
Stockholders.

J. & W. Seligman & Co., the Guar
anty Trust Company and Lee, Higgin-
son e. Co. are forming a syndicate TO
provide the cash requirements of the
st. Louis e. San Francisco Railroad re-
organization plan, which amount to
S25, 100000. Under the plan the fixed
charges of the new company will be
se,l5s,ls9, as against present fixed
charges Of s14,ss6,S24. They will be
followed by a cumulative contingent
charge of $2,432 $50 a year, being per
cent interest on $40 sis new 6 per
cent adjustment bonds, and also by a
cumulative charge of . per cent on
S3s, SCI 200 5 per cent income bonds.
The total charges, fixed and contingent,
ahead of the stock of the new com
pany will be sl3,524,11s.
In case the stockholders paying the
$50 a share assessment elect 70 post
pone payment of s45, permitted by the
plan, until November /, 1917, loan
syndicate formed by the Guaranty
Trust Company will advance that
amount against the pledge to 1t OF the
old stock on account of which the
stakeholder has paid 50 and bonds
which the stakeholder has subscribed
for.
In view of the easy money market
conditions now prevailing, sponsors OF
the Frisco plan expect that maky Of
the stockholders will pay the assess
ment in full.
