 Doubtless in a popular election he would have been elected but he provided that his successor should be chosen by a sort of closed corporation, the national par liament whose existence so long had depended upon his good will.
 His associates insist he was not dictator in the Italian sense. Said one of them:
 He followed the constitution strictly. No action was taken before he consulted his advisers. Every decree was passed upon by parlia- ment" Then, it was added naively: Tt is good to know that parliament approved all his decrees, for his plans were so wise

Quality Of Pink
 Salmon Pack Is
 Best, Six Years
Packers, Federal Govern ment Working Togeth-
 CT in Control Plan

SEATTLE, Nov. 29.-The quality of the pink salmon pack in Alaska during 1888 was the best in the past six years, Dr. Ray w. Clough, of the National Gamers ssocia tion, Northwest Branch, reported to the recent convention of the Associa tion of Pacific Fisheries, according to a digest of convention proceedings just released.
 He stated that this was the sixth year the inspection service of the National Gamers Association had examined large part of the Alaska salmon pack He declared the 1888 pink pack to be the best examined during this period. He attributed the improvement in part to better raw material in the form of firmer, more oily fish and in part to i'm proved workmanship in packing the product.
 Improved Workmanship
 "The improved workmanship in- dicates increased attention to im- portant details in catching, trans porting, preparation, and canning of the salmon" Dr. Clough said. He reviewed his report on the pack of year ago in which he had said, The 1887 pack was the best, from the standpoint of freshness, thus far produced and declared that the 1888 pack was virtually on par with the 1887 pack and that workers in the industry were to be commended for careful work dur ing 1888
 He stated that 99 2i3 percent of the code lots examined proved to be in good condition, and that virtual ly all unsatisfactory salmon had

Wireless Wnues
In Midget Form
Carried in Pipe
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Feb. 3.-Lilliputian
wireless waves SO short that they
travel inside pipe and are picked up
on an antenna only inch high were
placed before the radio engineering
world here today by the Bell Tele-
phone Laboratories.
In pipes, the engineers were in
formed, these midget waves promise
to travel like telegraphed messag ges,
but without the limits imposed by a
wire. A single small pipe, between two
cities, for example, might carry all
the telephone conversations wanted.
The waves exhibited ranged from
4 to 8 inches long. They travelled
through a 20-foot exhibition pipe
Like all short radio waves these
midgets reflect like light. Metal discs,
used as mirrors, reflect the waves into
one end of the pipe. The nch-long
antenna picks them off at the other
end. They have been piped a mile.
The waves are made by tubes no
larger than common electric light
bulb. Their "frequencies, or pulsa-
tions. are thousands of millions of
times a second.
