VIRGINIA POLITICS. Address Issued to Republican Voters by the State Committee. DETAILS OF THE MARPINIQUE DISASTER A Pennsylvania Oil Town in Peril From Fire. MINE EXPLOSION IN IDAHO. TO VIRGINIA REPUBLICANS, Address Issued by the State Committee. Special Dispatch to The Evening Star. Prrenssune, Va., August 21.—The following is the address of the republican state committeo to the republican voters of Virginia, adopted at the recent meeting of the committeo held at tho residence of Gen. Mahone in this city Dean St: Tho political landslide which over- took the republican party throughout the coun- try at the ‘last congressional election must not dishearten us, ‘There is uo cause for it com- | mon to the whole field. In places it was due to | a misconception of the McKinley bill, in others | to party local isenes, and in other localities to discontent, common to the distribution of patronage’ in Virginia. ‘The result was as anticipated and jicted at the mecting of our state committee last June and it must now be seen that it were better for Fire party and self respecting republicans that we run no candiates for Congros, and for. the following Teasons: 1. Thatvo long as we contest office with our opponents alarge number of our own people and of the outside world will not believe Lut that our elections are reasonably fair and fr from fraud. 2. That so long as we play at the game wo are stopped irom crying that the dice are loaded. . 3. That a0 long as we contest any political or public offjce with the opposition we keep it or- ‘and stop disaffection in the ranks ereof. : 4. That our only hopes of ever getting rid of the present infamous clection law and its foul administration is to leave the democratic party look into the usurpation of their party mana- gers and take coucern of their own im- periled liberties and sooner or later tire of their methods, wheu division will inevitably follow and a legislature will come that will stand for a fair election law so officered as to secure an honest registration, fair play at the polls and corrupt returns of the results. ‘The masses at the people are honest and it is only when reason and better nature are potsoned by the pernicious hollow-hearted ap- peals to the prejudices of caste and section that fair dealing 1m our election: bverted. Let us with becoming manhood self re- spect refuse to contest any seat in the legisla- ture this fall and thus deprive the democratic managers of their disgraceful pretext for polluting elections and — longer —_eon- spiring by foul and fraudulent methods the honest will of the voters to their continu- ance in power and so leave the masses an op- portunity to think for themselves, consider whither we are drifting and give them an op- portunity to enforce a purification of election methods. The theory that @ contest on our part is necessary to bold the party together is full cious. Contest under the existing law as it is administered only enables the Bourbon man- agers to apply the political lash and preclude the masses from looking into their rec- ord. No true republican needs that a futile contest shall be made to precerve his i ciples or fidelity to party while ach repurblicans tire of the fruitless assxults inst loaded dice, and cannot be expected to go into any contest where it is that fair play and honest results are impossible with that heart and zest which reasonable hope and de- votion to cause inspire. ‘ ‘That it was and isto our mind and must be to shat of every thoughtful republican who has no personal ambition to satisfy, that a fair and free expression of the popular will was and is impossible under the existing election law as now administered and since the demo- cratic party came to dominate Worm Yor Bex A Take advantage of our midsummer clearing sale.

Buaxe, Inamo, August 21.—Two hundred pounds of giant powder exploded at the mouth of the Tower tunnel of the Black Bear mine, near here, Wednesday with terrible effect. Four men were imprisoned at the breast of the drift by a rock which caved in and were suffo- cated. Tho bodies of four other miners are not et found, but all hope of finding them alive Eas been given up. explosion was territic, ‘tearing up earth and caving in the tunnel for a distance of 100 feet. Arescuiug party recovered the dead bodies of G.

Jonesis a brother of one of the pro- prictors and ir. Blackburn was secretary of ‘the Central Miners’ Union at Burke. Just how the explosion occurred cannot be ascertained, but it is sup, that a lighted candle or fire trom a pipe dropped into a box Sontainiug powder or fuse by some one was the cause. Four cases of 300 sticks. each exploded almost simultaneously. The Black ear is located half way between Wallace and Burke, on what iw known as Canyon creek, near the town of Gem. The bodies of the men recovered were found at a distance of 150 feet from the mouth of the tunnel. Jense, Blackburn and Barrows were found in near the wreck smothered by gas from the ex- plosion. They had eviden in in the rear ond of the tunnel, end. the explosion, came forward and tried to open the pasnage- way, but were overcome by gas.

The Half Was Not Told in the First Re- ports of the Martinique Disaster. Panis, August 21.—Additional details re- ceived here this morning from St. Pierre, capi- tal of the Island of Martinique, the French West Indian possession, which was visited by ® terrible hurricane on ‘Tuesday 4 last, shows thet the facts already published ere not only in mo way oxaggerated, at that they did not tell the full story of the disaster. The number of dead was originally estimated at sixty, with hundreds of injured. The latest dispatches received here announce that 218 people are found to have been killed in the coast towns alone, the towns in the interior not having been heard from as yet. There is no doubt that the loss of life in the interior towns may have been as great, if not greater, than in the coast towns, so it is impossible at present to make an estimate of the number of ‘ople who lost their lives through the cyclone isturbance whieh did so much ruin and deso- lation to the unfortunate island. GENERAL CONSTERNATION. ‘The official dispatches received here admit that a state of consternation exists throughout the Island of Martinique, and when this is ad- mitted in official reports the real state of affairs may be imagined. The diffienlty experienced in forming correct estimate as to the number of people who lost their lives on Tuesday night at Mar- tinique is greatly due to tho fact that the roads leading into and from the interior of the island have been rendered nbsolutely impassa- able. These roads are blocked in some eases for several miles by fallen trees and displaced earth and rocks. Several days may elapse be- fore the governor of Martinique is able to give the home government a detailed account of the disaster wiich has failen upon the inhabitants of that island. It is known, however, that houses, craps and trees from one end of Martinique to the other have been demolished or flattened down be- youd hope of recovery. The e coffee and sugar planters will be very great. At Dueos, it is now added, only four houses remain stauding out of the buildings which formed that little town ro the hurricane visited it. Of the inhabitants of Ducos eigh- teen have been killed and a number are injured { ‘The troops at the dis- large dy of vol- and ta repair, vo for as possible, the dumago jone. 1 °°Rt st.

The deazh list by towns as forwarded by Gov. Casse, up to date, ie as follows: pe ecal Carbel, 4; St. Joseph, 10;' Lamentin, 28; Kiviere Pilote, Francois, miscelluneou., But these numbers do not include the deaths in isolated places, interior towns, or upon plan- tations with which no communication can be had at present. AN ESTIMATE OF 300 KILLED. Perhaps a rough estimate of 300 killed and 1,000 injured will about cover the ground. The wounded people received their injuries from being hurt by falling buildings or falling trees. Of course much suffering among the poor has resulted from the damage done and itsattencant loss of life; infact it may be said that the majority of the inhabitants of Martinique are practically without any shelter but that afforded by temporary huts, which they have crected for themselves upon or near the spots where their homea recently stood. The governor and the colonial suthorities are doing everything possible to relieve the suffer- ers. anes” ee Failure of a New York Paper Dealer. New York, August 21.—William P.

Recently the Commissioners received a letter from B. H. Warner & Co., asking if the Com- missioners would consent to change the name of Half street southeast toa name with more dignity and euphony. This letter was referred to Capt. Rosseli, who reported that he did not think the Commissioners had the anthority to change the name of any street in the city and suggesting that an opmion be obtained from the attorney. Today Assistant Attorney Thomas returned an opinion on the question as follows: “My opinion is the Commissioners in the absence of express authority from Congress have no power to change the names of street and avenues. I would suggest that the parties in interest go to Congress next winter and geta special uct passed authorizing the desired ge. It seems to me the could be no difficulty in getting the necessaay legislation.” WAITING EIGHT WEEKS YOR THE SLOP MAN. Mre. Beckley, who resides corner of 8th and O streets, has had an unhappy experience with the garbage man. She details it in a letter re- ceived by the Commissioners today, in which she says: “The slop Las becn setting here for cight weeks. They have been in a habit of taking it away, but have negiected it now for eight weeks. I have been to Mr. Drai myself and notified the police and they said it would be taken away next day, and there has been no one here yet, and I also wrote a postal ecard. It {s very offensive.” POLICE CHANGES. Promotions and appointments, to take effect September 1, have been made in the police de- partment as follows: First Class Privates John 8. Jamison, D. W. Byer and John McCabe promoted to second class, vice Petrits, re- signed, and Work and Simpson removed. Johannes Ronning, James M. Yoler, William | Evansand Chas. H. Murphy appointed pri- vates of the first class, vice Jamison, Byer und MeCabe, promoted, aud Glover removed. NOT AN ILLEGAL. PLOIECTIO: ‘The Commissioners some days ago received a letter from J. Q. Thompson & Co., publii of the Washington Chronicle, protesting a; the extension of the building line on lith street, east side, at iw junction with Pennsylvania avenue, in the improvements now going on at Brentano's corner. Tne letter criplained that an extension of the building is being erected upon the sidewalk, thus taking ai- vantage over businessmen located on this square north of the corner and obstructing the view of things upon the avenue up 11th street. Today the Commissioners reecived a report on the subject from Mr. Entwistle, inspector of buildings, saying that the permit given was legal us allowed in the building regulations; that the projection from building line is five fect and the sidewalk twenty-eight feet wide. There is, the inspector says, no condition in the regulations proventing the placing of a stair- way in a projection. ‘A DOCTOR'S BILL DISALLOWED. Some time ago Dr. Wm. R. King, an oculist, treated Officer Melbon for injuries received to his eyes while making an arrest, the case hav- ing been referred to Dr. King by a police sur- geon. Dr. King’s bill for $95 for this service has been disallowed by the Commissioners under an opinion from Attorney Thomas that the District is mot liable. The doctor has written a letter to the Com- missioners asking what redress he has and Entwisle today as follows: Wm.

Prof. B. E. Pernow of this city intro- duced the subject. He said there had been inaugurated in the forcsty division of the Department of Agricul~ ture a comprehensive series of tests and exam- inations of American timbers, the ultimate ob- ject of which is the solution ef a biological probiem, namely, to establish the relation of | of the technical und physical qualities to each other and to conditions of growth.

A very large number of tests alone on material of hnown 0-1gm and condition and an exhaustive examina- tion of the same will permit generalization and the recognition of laws of interrelation. ‘The work requires the organization of four distinct departments, First the seloction of tea? material from as mauy essentially different climatic aud soil conditions as the species may occupy, tive fully matured and two young trees being carefully telected on cach site and cut up for test material; secondly, the examination of the structure and physical condition of the test maternal requiring the minutest detail; thirdly, the usual testing with special care,and, lastly, the compilation and comparative discus sion Of the vewulta of the tests in connection with the phyaical examination aud the huown conditions of growth.

OTHER PAPERS READ. Other papers read before the engineering section were: On “The Crushing of Short Prisms of Homogeneons Material,” by Charles L. Bou- ton; on “*A Method of Holding Samplesof Wood and Brick for Determination of ‘Tensile Strength,” by Prof. Denton, and on “Expansion of team Calorimeters,” by Prof. Thomas Gray; “Maximum Error Due to Neglecting the Radia- tion Correction of a Barrus Culorimeter,” by D. 8. Jacobus. Prof. Gray also read a paper on “Tests of Electric Iailway Plants," describing the apa- ratus and methods used in electric railway testa in Terre Haute, Ind. He gave detail: the total horse power used, the power variations and power required per car. Prof. Wm. Kent of New York presented a per on the “Opportun i Chemical Frobonroh. at the Werld’ He said that texts made at the centennial had proved of great servic to the engineering profossion in estab- lishing the limits of efficiency to be expected in steam boilera. Large expositions afforded unusual opportunities for mechanical tests be- those, the best examples of various cf appliances, were grouped er, making comparisons easy and ac- , the tests all being made under ractically uniform conditions. Prof. Kent said he had brought to the attention of the world’s fair people the advisability of making tests of fuels, furnaces, engines, pumps, &c., and hoped hiv suggestion would be adopted. He udvocated the appointment of a committee to look after the matter. Prof. D. 8. Jacobus also read a paper show- ing the inferiority of carbolic acid as the working tluid of refrigerating machines, the ammonia process being much superior. patches mira THE NOMINATING COMMITTEE. A Meeting to Be Held Tonight to Decide Upon New Officers. Tho meeting of the nominating coz- mitteo of the association will be held this evening fer the purpose of de- ciding upon the officers for the ensuing year. ‘This commnttce is composed of the members of the council and one member from each of the eight sections. ‘Their nomiuations will be acted upon at the final general session Tucsday evening. Prof. Le Conte of California recms to be the choice of a large number for president. The vico presidents of the eight sections and tho secre- taries are nominated by tho cections and acted upon by the nominating committee. There will be no change in the office of permanent secretary held by Prof. F. W. Putman. It is said that Prof. Amos W. Butler, the secretary of the council, will be sneceeded by Prof. Marcus Baker of this city and that Prof. Butler will be made meral seo- retary in ot "Prot. Wiley.

Prof. Bigolow has been working for some years on the problem of the physical interac- tions between the earth and the sun, aside from those due to gravitation. Several im- portant discoveries have already been made, and a new field of investigation opened up to wience. It has been found. that the same law which underlies the working of electricity and magnetism is operating on the sun and gives the beautiful curves of the corona which are seen at the times of total ecti This corona is like the aurora and is confined to a narrow belt in each hemisphere of the # Bigelow has recently discovered causes of terrestrial magnetism and the varin- tion of the magnetic needle all over the earth in periodic motions, It seems thet the sun- light is also a magnetic field, and that the mag- netized earth rotates in it just like the armagure of « dynamo. By asort of magnetic refraction the rays of force enter the dark side of the earth in uliar curvee, pats through it in straight ines and emerge in similarcurveson the sunny side of the earth, turning all the needles ina corresponding way. This indentifleation of sunlight with magnetism isa step of the high- eat importance to science. Now, the aurora marks the pathways by which these forces enter and leave the earth, cz the moditications that are produced by them, or the ordinary magnetic surroundi earth, due to its permanent magnetism, and it therefore becomes essential to carefully the data that they canj give. Much study has been given to the aurora, but not along this line, for which aleo Prof. Bigelow has given the theory. Those three subjects, the corona, the aurora and ter- restrial magnetism, form’ one grand scheme and depend upon one law, the inverse of New- ton’s law of gravitation To test the aurora a new instrument has been plsuned by Prot Bigelow. It was conatracted xy the United States coast and geodetic survey, they have made it a model of beauty and efliciency. It will be sent to Alaska this au- tumn, where the aurora is seen in the best con- ditions, and in time we may expect to add ma- terially to our knowledge of this subject. TOMORKOW'S PROGRAM.

Snow of the Agricultural Department, was of great interest. Prof. Snow said that Americans are properly proud of a railway development which in twenty years has added 133,000 miles to their systems, equivalent to an investment in build- ing and equipment of probably €8,000,000,000, and given them nearly half the total mileage of the world.
