there are some, very complex regions,
too. Our photographs show well the
general shape and structure of the
corona. There is an abundance of fine,
normally shaped sire. mers. The pres
ence of five long, straight streamers is
the most striking feature of this corona
The longest one can be. traced on the
photograph to distance of 5000. 600
miles above the center of the sun.
This is an unusually long streamer.
1t will be recalled that we barely
missed the clouds, on eclipse day. Had
the eclipse occurred 10 minutes earlier
or half hour later We should have ac-
complished nothing AS a matter of
fact, the plates show that 1t was clearer
about individuality than near the be-
ginning or near the end of totality.
How Plates Were Developed.
There seems to be general impress
sion prevalent that eclipse observers
take their plates to their home observa-
tories for development. Eclipse observ
erS as a rule develop their plates at the
eclipse camp the night following the
eclipse. 1t would be very unsafe to do
otherwise, particularly in the tropics.
The hi-h temperatures and the greater
actinic p~'Ter of the atmosphere causes
photogral &c plates to deteriorate very
rapidly. All the plates that we took
with us were sealed by the manufac-
turers in air-tight tin boxes, which
were not opened until the day the plates
were put into the plate holders. The
eclipse plates were taken from their tin
boxes the night before the eclipse.
We developed our plates in a dark
room we had built in our camp before
the eclipse. 1t lacked many of the mod
ern conveniences found in the dark
room of a laboratory.
Can you imagine THE intensity of the
moment of developing an eclipse plate?
There fits through ones mind all the
things one should have done as we'll as
those things that one should not have
done for weeks before the time and at
the critical moment. One thinks of the
vagaries Of the weather man.
The interest is akin to that with
which the surgeon watches his patient
come from under the snesthetic. or a
chemist watches his test tube. But the
surgeon and the eclipse observer have
only one trial. Just these conditions
| for trying it again will never be re-
peated. The blackened image begins to
appeal. 1t is a thrill of lifetime.
We developed our plates as I have
said. One could tell something of the
quality of them by examining them with
a hand magnifying glass. We knew be-
lore leaving camp that they held some
OF the information we sought.

PRESIDENT TAKES OFFICE
IN PERU FOR THIRD TIME
Augusta B. Leguia Thanks q. S.
for Aid in Concluding Tacna-
africa Treaty.
py the Associated Press.


LIMA, Peru, October 12.-President
Augusta B. Leguia today was inaugu-
rated for a third term of i've years.
The leader of the Democratic Reform
party, his cabinet for the past year,
has been a coalition between that party
and the Constitutional and Democratic
parties.
In his inaugural address today, he
dwelt particularly on the foreign re-
lations of Peru and said that the most
important event, had been the con-
clusion and signature of the Tacna
africa treaty with Chile, which was
possible, thanks to the good offices of
the United States, and the decisive acts
of American executives and representa-
tiveS."
His administration still holds to the
policy of attempting to nix the boun-
diaries of the republic by peaceful
means. Peru has the firmest desire
to negotiate with Ecuador for her old
differences and the fraternity of spirit"
he said.

HEAT PLEA is FILED
City Asks Protection of
Rights in Alabama Case.

The public service commission to-
day considered a plea of the city to
protect the rights of all citizens"
in the petition of the Indianapolis
Power and Light Company to aban-
don the Sixteenth street hot water
heating plant. The petition was
filed before Commissioner Howell
Ellis by Smiley N. Chambers, assist
ant city attorney.
The petition asked that the dis
position of the power petition not
be made a basis by the Indianapo-
lis Power and Light Company for
a petition to the commission "for
authority to maintain, its present
electric power and light rates or to
increase the said rates at any flu
ture time" 1t set out that the re-
lation of the electric power and hot
water departments is such that OPP
Grating costs of various departments
are separately kept but that the
aggregate totals of profits and costs
of operation as relates to rates, may
or may not be SO kept"
The commission is expected to
study the evidence some time be-
fore deciding whether to abandon
the plant, or substitute steam.

WHEAT FUTURE
u..7KET TAKES
FRACTION DROP
Liverpool Is Weak; Corn
and Oats Change but
Little.

Ry United Press
CHICAGO, Feb. IA weak
market at Liverpool caused wheat
futures to lose fractionally here to-
da.'. Corn and oats showed very
little change.
At the opening, wheat was % to
Il cent lower, corn was unchanged
to u cent lower, and oats were Is
cent higher. Provisions were about
steady.
Sentiment in wheat continues
nervous, affecting factors being of
conflicting nature, and the market
is likely to be a day to day affair
until more important news de-
velopes. Kansas and Missouri are
having considerable show, but tenn
peratures in these states, as well as
Nebraska, are below zero. Liverpool
was lower than expected today.
Farmers evidently are convinced
Of higher prices for corn, as recept
break in prices caused no loosening
up on the grain. A reawakening
of export business improved the sit
uation considerably yesterday.
Oats have showed little inclina-
ton to move in either direction of
late, but with no apparent change
in the general situation, the grain
probably will continue to follow
more definite trends in other pits.

virtually had decided to serve his
sixty-day Indiana state farm SEN

from the farm sentence and $3.50
fine imposed on the Shumaker by

for alleged contemptuouS utterances
in his annual league report.
Several days ago friends Of the
dry leader announced he preferred
serving the sentence to appealing

decision, the nature Of which is in
doubt.

the federal court stay of Judgment
expires. to make his decision. The

Rise Important to Wall Street

BIZ United Press
NEW YORK, Feb. THE most
important event in the financial
community was the rise in the Bank
of England's rate from Az to 51s per
cent. That action took place long
before the opening Of the New York
market, and was expected to be a
forerunner of an increase in the
New York federal reserve bank rate
of 5 per cent here at the meeting
this afternoon after the market
close.
Raising the English rate followed
drastic announcement from the
federal reserve board at Washington
that loans Of member federal reserve
banks would be more carefully scru-
tinized and that the board would
restrain the use, directly or in
directly, of federal reserve credit
facilities in aid of the growth OF
speculative credit"
