began hunting Walsh. He found him
in an all-night restaurant on Ran
dolph near Clark street. They went
to the street, where, witnesses said,
Walsh opened fire, which Barron re-
turned. Bullets few across the crowd
ed street. Windows in several places.
including HenriciS and Raklios' restau-
rants, were shattered and persons on
the street ducked for cover.
Police found four revolvers on the
sidewalk. Both Barron and Walsh lay
where bullets had dropped them. Three
men, believed to have been companions
of Walsh, were arrested.
Barron was wounded in the chest.
Walsh had bullet wounds in the abdo-

tain ranges of the Coast of South
America last February. One range,
extending 10000 feet above the ocean
floor. was encount ~ of the Coast
Of Ecuador and another OF the Chilean
Coast.
Definite proof was obtained, her
master said then, that the North Pole
was ''wobbling."
While the change is comparatively
Slight" Capt. Ault said at the time.
our observations prove that the North
Magnetic Pole, ordinarily regarded as
COLlSIduI ny HdTIucTS. Is changing.
1t had been planned that the cruise
would have ended in Washington in
1881.
An Official report was received today
at the Navy Department from Capt

Governor of Samoa, relative to the
burning in Apia Harbor yesterday OF

TUTUILA, Samoa, November 30
Twenty years of scientific wayfaring of
the non-magnetic yacht Carnegie were
ended today, with the curious expert
mental vessel, the only one of its kind,

Capt. j. P. Ault, the ships master,
dead in the line of duty.
Capt. Ault was killed in a blast that
preceded burning of the vessel yester-
day, several members of the expedition
were injured and Tony Kolar, cabin
boy, was missing.
Dispatches here gave no reason for
the explosion, but told of blast that
hurled Capt. Ault overheard, followed
by fire that spread to five other craft
moored in the vicinity, destroying all
of them. Advices here listed those in
jured as Eric Stenstrom. said to be
seriously burned, and Karl Albin Sturk
Otto EricSen and John Lindstrom, less
seriously hurt.
Warship Goes to Aid.
The u. S. S. ontario sailed from

Carnegie Institution, was on a three
year cruise that started from Washing
ton year ago last Spring. 1t carried
a party of IT scientists studying mag
netiSm and atmospheric electricity. No
iron nor steel was used in constructing
the ship. All metals in its makeup or
carried aboard the Carnegie were nom
magnetic to prevent deviation of deli
cate apparatus.
A wooden sailing vessel, brigantine
rugged, the Carnegie carried $4,000 feet
of sail and was powered by an auxiliary
motor Of about $50 horsepower.
Nom Magnetic Engine.
In every particular the idea of max
ing the vessel non-magnetic was carried
out. The auxiliary engine was built OF
I1on-magnetic metals, the galley cook
ing ranges were of special design and
constructed of bronze and copper. The
cutlery, knives, forks and spoons were
of Mexican silver and the sailors knives
of non-magnetic manganese steel.
Even the buttons on the uniforms OF
the crew were of bone or brass. Among
the scientific staff aboard the ship on
the present cruise were w. c. Parkin-
son, F. H. Paul, F. M. Soule, L. A. Jones
w. e. Scott, H. r. Seiwen and o. w

pay more for promising high school
talent. That's what's the matter
with this country. It's not Wall

go out and spend the dough. Bigger
grandstands, look at Chicago with

that's brought 'em more publicity
than AL Capone and machine guns
combined.
