Proposals for Building the Benning Bridge— A New School House. The District Commissioners’ office was filled at noon today with people interested in two prospective contracts. One set of bids was opened for congtructing an eight-room school building at the corner of 3d and G streets northeast, and another for constructing an iron bridge across the East- ern branch at Benning road. There were three bidders for the school building, as follows: L W. Sweeney, $23,283; John H. Howlett, €23,- 500, and John M. Dunn, $23,875. ‘There were ten bidders for constructing the new Benning bridge. Only the general plan and requirements of the bridge were given in the specifications, 80 the bridge men bidding, in each case furnished detailed plans of their own, and there was quite a variety in the bids. ‘The main bids in each case were as follows, though several bidders furnished alternative plans. and alternati ids: The Phoenix Bridge Company, $53,000; _ El- lery Colby, £18,000; Deane Westbrook, '€58,- 0; Nelson & Buchanan, ige Manufacturing ‘The Berlin Iron Bridge The Youngstown Bridge $55,000; The Groton Bridge and Company, $53,700; Wallis iron provisions of the special act of Congress ap- proved March 3 last, which appropriated ,000 for the construction of “a substantial one of iron bridge, with the necessary ap- " ucross the Eastern branch of the iver at Benning road, ‘The Commissioners are charged with the di- | ree ‘ou of the work instead of the War Depart- t, as has been the case with other bridges cted across the Potomac here. ne Commissioners decided to invite pro- 1s for the construction of an iron highway ridge.

An Interesting Paper Read “Before the Sec- tion of Physics This Morning. “Do Tornadoes Whirl?” was the title of a paper read by H. A. Hazen before the section of physics today. The speaker ,first showed that there was a well-nigh universal belief among the people that thére is always a whirl ina tornado cloud, but that this was based not so much upon actual facts as upon a general theory. This belief may be likened to the almost universal opinion ‘among the people that the moon has an effect on the weather, which, however, it has been proved is not the case by comparing observa- tions of the weather for more than a century. ‘The speaker suggested two methods of solving the problem, first, byactual observations of the funn . One great ty in observing the tornado is due to terror induced in the person by its presence, another is due to great cloud of dust which hides the phenomenon, If the ob- server is on the south side it is very difficult to separate the appearance.due to the forward movement of the funnel from that due to the whirl. This difticulty, however. vanishes on the north side, because here the whirl would tend to carry ‘the debris back in the direction from which the funnel had come. Since the whirl has a velocity twice as great as the forward velocity if an observer on the north side secs leaves, branches, &c., carried to his right hand it is a good evidence of whirl. The distance of the observer, however, should not be grenter than 500 feet. ‘The second method scoms capable of settling this question better than the first, because one in study carefully the effecte ot bia leisure with no distu tigations at the weathe: bureau on these lines has shown a most marked result, ‘Ibe re- porte of between 200 «nd 300 tornadoes have been received during the past two years and the evidence from these reports is. overwhelm- ingly in favor of the view that there is no whirl. Special mention was made of the Akron, Ohio, tornado of May 10, 1890. Prof. Egbert wrote that he went out to investigate the tor- nado with his mind fully made up to find evi- Gences of a whirl, but to his surprise he found noni He also forwarded a chart showing that the distribution of the debris indicated no whirl whatever. Mr. Curtis, who investigated the Wilkesbarre, Pa., tornado of August 19, 1890, found exactly the samo result. It was also shown that precisely the same effect had been noticed in Europe, while it would be unsafe to say that the evidence was sutticient. COLOR PHOTOGRAPHY.

If the terms of the contract are fulfilled,” he concluded, “that is all that is wanted, otherwise, I told Mr. Draney, the order of the Commissioners would be put into effect.” ——_ ME. RILEY MUST DO IT HIMSELF. A Lumber Inspector @bt Allowed to Em- ploy Assistants. Some days ago Messr®. E. Champlin and E. L. Harbaugh, two of the lumber inspectors, complained to the Commissioners that Mr. T. R. Riley, one of the lumber inspectors, om- ployed an assistant to attend to his duties. Mr. Riley when asked to explain wrote that he had an assistant, a practical and experienced lumber man, to mark lumber for him, but this assistant did it under his personal supervision and inspection. “There are some instances,” he said, “under @ pressure of work to be done when my assistant bas marked and tallied lumber,using his best judg- ment while working under instructions from me. At the same time I was engaged on the same kind of lumber and his inspection was really my own, because I was responmble for it. Whenever this has occurred it has been at the request of some lumber dealer in order that the inspection of cargoes and cars might be hurried along, d such inspections have always proven satisfactory.” Mr. S. T. Thomas, assistant attorney for the District, today gave opinion in the case. He concludes that ‘while a lumber inspector may employ an assistant, the law requires that the inspection shall be under the inspector's personal supervision, —other- wise all that an energetic inspector would have tu do would be to employ sev- eral persons to assist him and vent other int from getting anything to do, A lum. | ber inspettor has not the right to adopt | the work of an assistant not done in his pres- | ence and it makes no difference that there is a pressure of work aud that some lumber dealer requests it in order to expedite » inspection of large quantities of lumber. sucha case, if one inspector cannot attend to the business himself personally, the dealer should call in some other inspector. It is not the object of the law that one man by employ- ing @ number of assistants should get ail the business into his own hands, All the inspectors should have a chauce.” ———_ ALEXANDEIA, ON To ATLANTA.

Lippmann opened an en- tirely new lino of experimentation on the prob- lem of the photographic reproduction of the colors of nature. ‘fo Lippmann’s account of his discovery is appended in Comptes Renus anoto by Mons. Edw. Becquerel to the effect that the process of Lippmann differs radically from the discovery made by himnself in 1848, in that whi Bacquerel was able by photo-chemical means to produce a colored image of the spectrum, which could not be exposed to light, since the action of the usual fixing agents reduced the deposit to a mere film of metailie silver, Lipp- mann, on the other hand, had by a physica process obtained an image which retains its colgge after treatment with) hypo- sulphite of soda, and therefore, permanent as an ordinary negative. peculiarities of Lippmann’s method first, in the use of a plate which is vent and free from grains; second, in the exposure of the plate with its film side rest- ing against a reflecting surface of mercury. The interference of the reflected with the inci- dent ray of light divides the film into a num- ber of Inyers ut the maxima, which wil corre- spond in’ their distance a th the wave length of the incident lig beable to reproduce by reflection the color produced the layer. Lippmann says that the plates are positive for reflected and negative for transmitted light (negatif pur trausparence). By negative he means showing the complementary color. In that one of Lippmann's negatives which I have seen and all those obtained by myself, the plates are opaque to transmitted light, showing only differences of density like an ‘ordinary negative. The reverse side of the plate, how- ever, shows the complementary colors, some- what fainter than the originai colors which ap- pear on the film side of the plate. In my experiments I used both albumen and collodion films, securing traneparency by re- ducing the proportions of the salts to abont one-fourth the amount usually employed. ‘The plates were exposed against mercury, not, how- ever, to the spectrum, but to light transmitted by strips of variously colored glass, one object being to determine whether the ordinary colors of objects, consisting, as they do, of a inixture of rays of several different wave lengths, would be reproduced with the same fidelity as were the pure rays of the spectrum. ‘The results obtained, though by no means conclusive at all pomts, seem to indicate: First, ‘What mixed colors may be reproduced with some fair degree of accuracy, modifications introduced by a change of thickness of 1m between exposure and final drying and wva shortening of the distance between faaai- mia, caused by the rays striking the reflector at an'ungle other then the normal. Second, that an exposure sufficiently long to give ® clear image of the red is quite certain to oblit- erate the blue by overexposure. ‘Third, that ture may completely reverse the colora, causing the original colors to appear on the reverse, and the complimentary on the film side of the plate. A number of negatives were exhibited illus- trating the facts prevented. —_—__ RECENT KOGBERIES. Burglars and Thieves’ Hi Profitable Visits.

FREE COINAGE Mr. Edward Atkinson’s Paper Refore the Economie Science and Statistics Section. ‘The economic science and statistics section held by far the most interesting session this morning. Free coinage was the topic and savants from all parts of the country wrestled with it. A paper by Edward Atkinson entitled “Free Coinage—Why Not?” was first read by Secretary Fernow. ‘The paper stated that the question cannot be answered, and no definite conclusion can be reached upon the policy of free or unlimited coinage, either of silver or of gold without treating separately the two functions which national governments have assumed in the matter of directing the supply of coins which may be required to serve the purpose of ex- change. There has been much confusion in treating of this question because of the various defini- tions of the word “money,” but all writers coneur in one respect. Coined money is the instrument by which the exchange of services or products is facilitated. It is admitted by all that one kind of money may be good and another kind bad. A FRAUD PERPETRATED. When a government attempts to make bad money a legal tender it perpetrates the worst fraud that'can be inflicted upon a trusting peo- ple, whether the money consists of discredited paper orcoin. In either case it is beyond the power of a government to maintain any kind of bad money in circulation to which the peo- ple refuse to give credit. It lies with the com- munity which usea the money, and not with Congress, to determine whether it is good or a In order to find out what kind of money is worthy of credit thefunction of the government in respect to coinage mast be dealt with sepa- rately from the enactments of statutes of legal tender. The paper defined coinage as merely a pro- cess of making pieces of motal of given sizes, weights and fineness. The word “fine” in con- nection with coinage was also defined. The paper showed that thegold dollar is nine-tenthe of pure gold and the other ten alloy. In the same way the silver dollar contains nine parts of pure silver and one part of alloy. WHY GOVERNMENTS MANUFACTURE COINS. The question of why governments assume the duty of manufacturing coins and why they forbid it to private persons is often asked. It is simply to protect the people who use tho money from being defrauded in the weight and fineness of the coin. Governments assume the manufacture of coin only that they may main- tain the credit of the coin and in order to give contidence to all the people. ‘The usefulness of coin reste upon the confi- dence which may be placed in the government which makesit. ‘The credit of the government and the coin are bound together. It is evident that so long as each coin remained true to its pame it required no act of legal tender to keep itin circulation. Any one holding an obliga- ion of another to pay him so many grains of gold or silver requires no act of legal tender to compel him to receive payment in the just weight of metal which he has a right to expect. How TEE CONCEPTION OF LEGAL TENDER ORIGINATED. The inquiry was then suggested in the paper of how the conception of a legal tender originated. The author of the paper then said that he had never been able to geta reply to the question, “In what country, at what tims and under what circumstances’ the first _con- ception of legal tender arose,” but asked if the very conception of a forced circulation of any kind of money under an act of legal tender had born in fraud. In this view docsn't the at- tempt to force a silver dollar into circulation by an act of legal tender when it is worth less than a gold dollar become a fraud unless silver dollars are named in the contract? Continuing, he said that no act of legal ten- der was necessary to the commerce of the country. ‘Ihe international commerce of the world needed and had no legal tender law. He estimated this commerce a8 equal to all the commerce between the people of this country. International commerce had adjusted itself 10 gold standard, the pound sterling. ‘There is no such coin, the term simply meaning so many grains of gold. Balances only are settled in money. If there were no act of legal tender — and, he said, there is non in China—interstate and individual contracts would be mado and | business carried on just as effectively and just as freely as at present. To protect the old «il- ver dolinrs he suggested this clause in a free coinage act: ““Subyequent to the date of this uct the United States will receive payment of all duties or taxes or obligations owing to it in coin | made of gold or in dollars made of silver which | ‘uad been coined prior to the date of this act.” ‘A SUGGESTION AS TO SILVER. He says that if provision was made tha: silver | dollars coined free should not be received by the government, but should only be used in | contracts naming silver, ull depreciation of | such silver doilurs as are now outstanding | would be done away with. This would be the | only change necessary to existing legal tender | gets to mike free coinage, pertectly safe and free from objection. “Dollar” would mean a gold doliar so many grains fine, unless another dollar was specified. ‘Fwo parties, ho said, were engaged in the | effort at free’ coinage—owners of mines and their advocates in Congress who want to sell their bullion to the government at 20 to 30 per cent more than it is worth, taking the people for their own profit, and the misguided people who think it may be more profitable, especially to farmers, to deprive them of any turther credit by enabling them to pay their present debts in cheap money, depreciated coin. With these might be ‘classed the politicians | who want the — misguided ople’s votes. If, when this danger becomes apparent, the administration does not have | sufficient courage to prevent the country being recipiiated upon the single silver standard of Repreciated silver coin, “s partial remedy lies within the power of each state,” he said. “The Constitution provides that no state shail make anything but gold or silver coin a legal tender for the payment of debts. It follows that the states -have reserved to themselves the power of deciding what shall be a legal tender in the contracts made among their own people. It will, therefore, rest with each state to decide this matter with respect to its own-citizens. Each state may enjoy tie Denefit of a just and single standard on the gold basis. “Asa matter of course capital will tlow from the discredited states to thestates that retain a eafe and staple standard on a gold basis.” Continuing, he said that this might be called a threat. jut if it was a threat for a state to protect its own citizens it was a whole- some threat. Concluding he said, “It is quite time to denounce those who promote the free coinage of silver dollars of the present stand- ard without change in the present acts of legal tender as destroyers of credit, and as persons who would impair contracts’ and who would take from the business community its liberty to make use of either metal, gold or silver, ac- cording to the wiil, judgment and discretion of each of its members.” COINAGE RATIO AND OUR SILVER POLI The paper by E.'T. Peters on on the “Coin- age Ratio and Our Silver Policy,” began with a succinct statement of the considerations which appear to support bimetalism asa policy for the world at hirgo, but pointed out tle difiieul: ties in the way of our adoption of that policy for ourselves without foreign co-operation. Its concluding portion was devoted to urging the importance of another effort to secure the co- operation of the nations of the Latin union, and of a sufficient number of other nations to render free coinage of silver a safe policy. To this end it was necessary that we should offer to such nations a ‘co-operation on our part which they could rely upou as genuineand permanent. thw free coinage upon our present ratio would afford them no assurance, since difference of 3 per vent between our ratio and that of the Latin union—the = ratio upon which any progress bas been m: toward an international agreement—would ope- rate as a premium for the withdrawal of silver from our mints and ite coinage in the mints of nations having the lower ratio—153¢ to 1. Under such conditions foreign nations might fairly decline to unite with us in the free coin- age of ail’ since they foresee that the result fe would be tion of an excessive amount we should get an undue pro- ter and handier metal, mak- old monometallist nation, jtigal adherence to ——___- —- =+_____ Thinks the Officer Was Justified.

Papers on “Imitation Coffees” and Other Subjects of Practical Interest. A paper of very practical value, by Profs. G.L. Spencerand E. E. Ewell, on “Imitation Coffecs” was read before the chemical section this morning. ‘The paper stated that the writers had examined a number of imitation coffees in connection with the food investiga- tions of the Department of Agriculture. ‘These imitations are generally described by the mannfficturers as “coffee substitutes,” and havo their virtues extolled in confidential cir- culars to the trade. The authors said that some of these circulars would almost convince a dealer of tender conscience that the addition of the imitation coffee to the genuine is an ad- vantage to the consumer and that secrecy is = necessary to prevent prejudice. 0 New Jersey authorities probably deserve the credit for first detecting these spurious coffees in the American markets. ‘The fraud is widespread, and probably there are few towns in which the mixtures of the genuine and fraudulent coffees have not been sold. The materiais used in several samples of imi- itation coffee were given. One of these coffee substitutes is manufactured in Germany, and is imported as a coffee substitute, paying a duty of two cents per pound. It seems strange that an article whose very form is suggestive of fraud should be admitted at all at our custom ouses. Wheat flour and bran mixed with molasses seem to be the favorite materials for the manu- facture of imitation coffees. It is hardly prob- able that the manufacturer selects a good quality of four, but rather a damaged or wortt less lot. Refuse crackers and other waste of bakeries probably supply a portion of the material em- ployed. A factory recently seized in France employed a mixture containing 500 grams of ferrous sulphate, 15 kilos of chickory and 35 kilos of flour. With the exception of the last named mix- ture imitation coffee is probably not det mental to health, but especially affects the pocket of the purchaser. FIRE CLAY FROM MOUNT SAVAGE. Prof. Kennicut of the Worcester Polytechnic Institute read the paper on “Firé Clay From Mount Savage.” Prof. Kennicut called the at- tention of the section toa very peculiar fire clay from Mount Savage, Md., exhibiting a specimen. The clay occurs in the carbonifer- ous, in veins 7.14 feet thick. It isof a dark color, has a concoirdal fracture, with bright polished surfaces. From ite structure one would almost think it was formed by volcanic action. It is almost infusible before the blow pipe, and has a specific gravity of 2.54. Analytis shows that it contains 67.09 per cent of hydrated silicate of aluminium and 82 per cent of mud. It contains no feldspar or other double silicate. ADULTERATIONS OF LINSEED Of. Dr. Thomas Taylor, United States microscop- ist, Department of Agriculture, read a paper entitled “The Precipitation of Fish Oil in Lin- seed When Used as an Adulterant, by Sil- ver Nitrate Solution.” The detection of the adulteration of linseed oil with fish oil he stated to be a matter of great importance, not only to the trade, but to those who have to use it in their house’ painting and other decora- tions, but lately he had known no means of de- tecting this adulteration. The fact of a linseed oil not drying in the expected time was no test, as that might result from the conditions under which the oilhad been made. The oil made from the green seed would not dry like a pure linseed oil made from seeds which had been kept six months, this consequence resulting from the evaporation of the water in that time. He had discovered that by simply combining a concentrated solution of nitrate of silver with the suspected linseed oil, the fish oil, if any is present, coagulates and fulls to the bottom of the test tube, displacing the nitrate of silyer solution. This test he stated to be infallible, no such effect resulting from his experiments with other oils. —_———_ HEREMAN GOT HIS MONEY BACK He Dropped It Out of a Car Window While Looking at His Girl's Picture. Myer F. Herrman is a New York dry goods drummer. About three weeks ago he was a passenger ona Big Four train, ticket to Texas and an assortmentof big trunks, He had his ticket in his pocket book, together with his las* girl's picture and $60 in currency. While humming along at a rate of forty-five 3 an hour Herrman was seized with » de- sire to gaze upon the pretty face, so he opened the book, took ont the picture and laid the purse on the window sill. When he looked for the pocket book it was gone. He had just €1.25 in silver in his pocket ard was over 1,000 miles from his destination. When the train pulled in the Union depot at St. Louis Herrman was ina quandary. There was no time to telegraph for money and he had no acquaintances to help him out. He pawned his watch for enough money to supply him with sleeping car accommodations and meals and left for Texas. Yesterday morning Herrman wasa passenger on the Iron Mountain train, returning home. He inquired for the Big Four agent and exhibited a letter informing him that his pocket book with contents intact had been found. Tho manner in which Herrman got his pocket book back is quite remarkable. Immediately after the loss was reported a search was made for the missing property by Big Four section hands, but without success. A few days later a gentieman walking on the track dropped his knife, which rolled down the embankment into hollow between two good- sized stones. In inserting his hand to recover his penknife he picked up a pogket book that lay there. He was a man of means and honest, and turned over the property to the agents of the road. And yesterday Herrman got his money and ticket. ———_-r-—_____ DROWNED ONE, BRAINED THE OTHER. A Crazed Mother Kills Her Two Children and Then Trics to End Her Own Life. Mrs. Bamhowsor, the wife of one of the most prosperous residents of Helvetia, W. Va., dur- ing a fit of temporary insanity, and while her husband and the older members of the family were absent at their barn threshing grain, took her two young children, a babe of thirteen months and a boy of three years of age, to the spring house. Here she deliberately drowned the baby in the spring, holding it under water, as she says, until it was dead, and then at- tempted to do thie same with the otber child. By some means the little fellow escaped and ran back to the house, only to meet death ina more horrible manner. ‘The mother returned to the house and brained the boy with a hatchet, mutilating the body in a fiendish way. ‘Then she attempted to take her own life b: bving herself two or three times in the throat and neck with a butcher knife. Her wounds are not considered fatal. The only cause she assigns for the terrible deed is she was tired of living and; did not want to teave her children behind her. ————<e-_____ Gold Discovered in Ontario.

Asuit ip ejectment involving the title and ownership of real estate worth $6,000,000, and located in New York, has been begun in that city by Attorney Geo. W. Wilson. ‘There are 143 plaintiffs and 134 defendants in the case. Among the former are Mrs. Town- send Drew of Higland Falls and her brothers, John E. Sirrine of Fort Montgomery and Charles W. Sirrine of Tomkins Cove. Mrs. Ann Drake Seaman died in New York on March 4, 1878, and, it was claimed, had left three-fourths of her large fortune to Lawrence Drake, her second cousin, and the balance to other relatives. Tho will was admitted by Sur- e Undae influente on the part of Lawrenes Drake, Notice of appeal was given, but no further ac- tion was taken until six years ago, when it was taken up, but dropped on account of lack of money During the last two years, however, the claimants have been busy, and now they claim to have made startling discoveries. The alle- gation now made is that Mrs. Seaman never made & will, and it is said she often expressed the de- sire that her property should be divided accord ing to law, as she had no desire to make a will.

Va., who has been under suspension for some time, was tried by a committee of that church Thursday night at Huntington. The trial was held with closed doors. There were many charges brought against the preacher, who isa one-armed man. He is charged with having hibeled a young woman named Root of Belfore, Ohio, several years ago while a minister ina church near that place. He is also charged with breaking up a church at Gallipolis, Ohio, and with misusing and ap- propriating funds belonging to that church, and with other conduct unbecoming a minister of the Gospel. Letters from Indiana charge him with all sorts of actions not comporting with a minister's conduct. He is also charged with having defrauded creditors generally.

Holden May Discover, Remarkable discoveries have been made at the Lick observatory. Prof. Holden, the director, has secured through the big telescope better photographs of the moon than have been taken anywhere else, and the work of photo- graphing goes on every hour when the satellite is visible. By studying these photographs with a magnifying glass and comparing them any changes taking place on the surface of the moon may be discovered. ‘The astronomers on Mount Hamilton have discovered some things that nobody else ever saw, but they have not determined whether these are new features or things thatare too small to have been scen through a less power- ful telescope. For example, upor the top of | ‘one of the mountains of the moon the photo- juminous white spot that looks that is snow, and if it was not the presence of an atmosphere is there before, indicated. it has been believed that the moon has no atmosphere, and therefore is uninhab- itable; but if it should be demonstrated that snow falls upon the surface of the sutellite, the accepted theory would be upset, and astron- omers would begin to study the moon with new and greater interest. Objects upon the moon are detected by their shadows, and a projection or eminence fifty feet high’ casts a shadow large enough to beeen through the Lick telescope. If ot. jolden, studying his series of photogray should discover some day «new shadow where none had been cast before when the moon was in the same position and under the same light he would know thatsomething had been erec! upon the surface, either a part of the crust uj heaved by some internal movement, or # build ing put up by living creatures. ‘The moon appears to be @ dead desolate waste of played-out volcanoes and cooled-off lava beds, without atmosphere, and, like Ari- zona, rather short of water and good society. ——___o-___ ALASKA’S GREAT GLACIER. ‘Commodore Dickerson Describes the Beau- tiful Neyer. ‘From the Chicago Tribune. _A sun-burned but joily party of tourists ar- rived at the Patmer House yesterday.
