WHY is A CYCLONE,

]. H. Norvell of Augusta, Ga, has
evolved theory which he believes ex-
plains the terrific force and might Of
cyclones and which at the same time
suggests a way to subdue and dissi-
pate them. We present his argument
and his theory for what they may be
worth, in substance as follows:
A great ocean Of air surrounds the
earth and exerts on it at sea level
everywhere a pressure of approx
mately Is pounds per square inch.
when the air over any portion OF the
earth's surface becomes heated and
rises, the surrounding air, being cool
er and heavier, rushes in to that point.
In this manner ordinary breezes and
stronger air currents are created. AS
the surface of the earth is never equal
" heated, currents of warm air are
constantly rising somewhere and be-
ing replaced by the colder air which
flows in to take its place, consequent
" we have winds of different veloci-
ties, from the gentle zephyr to the
destructive hurricane. These winds,
however, cover large areas and their
intensity gradually lessons as the dis
lance increases from the seat of dis
turbance until they become merged
into neutral zones.
Cyclones are confined to narrow
channels and for that reason are more
powerful and have a greater velocity
than winds that are spread over ex-
tensive areas. Along this narrow
channel through which the storm
moves an immense amount of electric
ity is generated, and this, combining its
efforts to the limited extent of cy-
clone, converts oxygen into ozone,
thereby reducing the volume of the
former by 1-12 and forming partial
vacuum into which the surrounding
air rushes with considerable velocity,
expanding and absorbing heat as it
does so, thus lowering the tempera-
ture along the immediate path and SO
increasing the amount of the electric
ity. Thus the process of converting
oxygen into ozone and forming vacu-
UNI at the point Of the advancing cy-
clone is perpetuated. This process
continues until something occurs to
break up the cyclone and disperse it
1t has been observed that a cyclone
in one instance after coming into con-
tact with a group of telephone wires
was broken up and dissipated imme'
diately This shows that it is only
necessary to ground the electricity al
its head to break up the cyclone.

q die IN TUNNEL
GAS STOPS RESCUE
EXPLOSIVE FUMES CAUSE THE
SEARCH TO END.
Two Rescue Parties Trying to Get to
Scene of Explosion Killed by Dead
" Fumes-Cave-in After Ex-
plosion Occurred Seen.

Cleveland, July 25.-Federal Off
Gals investigating the water works
tunnel disaster which cost % lives
late today ordered an attempt to
reach the bodies Of the twelve men in
the tunnel abandoned until tomorrow
Tests of the gas in the tunnel showed
that it was highly explosive and the
officials feared second explosion. An
attempt will be made to pump out the
gas so that work of recovering the
bodies may progress.
All hope that any of the twelve men
trapped in the tunnel are alive was
abandoned tonight. Ten bodies, those
of members of two rescue parties
which tried to reach the doomed men,
but themselves succumbed to the dead
ly gas, were recovered today. Eight
injured men, also members Of rescue
parties, will recover.
Four investigations-city, county,
state and federal-will be started to-
morrow to determine the cause OF the
explosion near the five mile crib end
of the tunnel last night.
The efforts of Gustav c. Van Du-
zen, superintendent of waterworks
construction, and the members of the
two rescue parties, to reach the men
imprisoned without gas helmets or
pulmotors increased the death list.
This afternoon third rescue party
equipped with the safety devices enter
ed the tunnel and recovered the res
cuers, ten of whom were dead. Van
Duzen was among the rescuers re-
vived.
Headed by D. ]. Parker and L. Nj.
Jones of the United States Bureau of
Mines, who arrived here from Pitts
burg with the mine rescue car, the
third party of rescuers penetrated zoo
feet into the wrecked tunnel from, tn
crib end. They could see at the far
end of the tunnel that large cave-i.i
had occurred. They did not spend
much time investigating the condition
of the tunnel, but were concerned with
getting out the bodies of the rescuers
scattered along the tunnel.
According to the federal investiga-
tors the electric wiring in the TUNE
was faulty. After they had entered
the tunnel with the rescue party they
ordered the electric power shut off
They would not venture an opinion a:
to the cause of the explosion, but mos
of those cnncerned with the disaster
declare that one of the twelve un
fortunate workmen probably jabbet
his pick into a large pocket Of ga
which caused blast. Others say tina
a crossed light wire may have caused
the explosion.
