 Watchful Waiting
 Each side apparently was awaiting a move by the other, with neither seemingly disposed to make it.
 The British took the position that they had demanded nothing of the Hague conference but simply had resisted the proposal to take away from them 4S,O00,000 marks (about s11,640,000) of their share of the reparation annuities as determined at the Spa conference.
 Having rejected proposals of the other creditor powers which they deemed inadequate compensation for that loss the British now merely await further suggestions. These suggestions the French, Belgians Italian and Japanese seem no more inclined to make than the British.
 IASSG HdllOllS IOlu ludl llle OullS plan properly elaborated is a new chart for reparation payments and they already have gone long way to satisfy British claims and can go no farther, They decided last night to wait for MT. Snowden to make his suggestions, since their offer to him had proven unacceptable.
 
 though acquiescent did not sign the written offer rendered yesterday to MT, Snowden and later declined by him, continued the efforts begun yesterday by Baron Adachi, Japanese ambassador at Paris, to get the con- tending forces together again on a basis which will at least enable them to separate under conditions that will attenuate the circumstances of their disagreement,

SEATTLE, April 24.-The asserted ex-
istence and operation in San Francisco
of potential death ray machine, pro-
ducing 100000 volts of nan-made
lightning and said to be capable of de-
veloping twice that power, stirred the
imagination of engineers here today.
Announcement of the invention was
made simultaneously in San Francisco
and Seattle yesterday. C. H. Melsome-
Smith, an engineer of the Pacific Gas
IL Electric Co., in San Francisco, de-
clared the machine, invented by Hector
NJ. HasSel, former Seattle wireless in
structor, was housed somewhere in the
California city, but refused to say where.
At the same time John T. Martin
president of the Marjohn Mines Co., eX-
hibited films of the ray to stockholders
of his company here yesterday. He said
the machine was being used to refine
ores.
E.. Spark Is Feet.
Martin declared the invention was q
death ray only in the sense that it pro-
duced enormous destructive power. He
said its primary function was to oper-
ate commercially. Martin declared the
machine had thrown a spark Is feet
and that its power would be capable of
jumping a gap 80 feet between termi-
nails. The machine thus apparently has
power to destroy life or disintegrate any
solutions placed in its path.
The ray is used to disintegrate min
eral solutions into their various ele-
ments and is the result of, IA years of
experimentation.
Hassell was employed by the company
last December and was given free
hand in the experiments. In three
