TO PERFECT THE FORECASTING SYSTEM Merit, Not Partisanship, Will Rule in Promotions. ———— MR. MORTON’S =a ae “We folks who live in the inland do not appreciate the tremendous importance that a great storm is to the people who have interests on the sea or on the great lakes of this country.” So said Mr, Willis L. Moore, the new chief of the weather bureau, to a Star reporter this morning. He con- tinued: “We are inconvenienced, of course, by atmospherle changes, but we do not know how significant a great agitation is to those whose fortunes are invested on the water, nor, indeed, do we know the value that is at stake on the great plains of the west whenever the storm comes sweeping across the country. I hope that the weather bureau will soon be able so accurately to forecast the weather condi- Prof. Willis L. tions that we can foretell the coming of each one of these tremendous storms long enough ahead of its arrival to give ample warning to all the interests involved. I be- eve that whenever we predict such 2 storm successfully we save more money than this entire bureau costs for the whole year. I further believe that it is easier for a clever forecaster to give warning of one of these great storms than it 1s for him to tell at this moment whether or not it is going to rain in the next ten minutes. Will Aim to Perfect the System. “My aim will be to so perfect the present system of forecasting that we can be ab- solutely certain of giving warning of every storm of magnitude that crosses the United States in ample season to prevent the loss of a single life or a single vessel. I appre- ciate the fact as fully as anybody that there is no such thing as absolute perfec- tion in weather prediction. It is, of course, and always will be, an approximate "mat- ter, but we shall strive to make {t as nearly perfect as possible. But with a country as large as ours, I do not see why we cannot ve plenty of warning of every atmos- pheric disturbance of sufficient size to de- stroy property or life. Eventually I hope there will be a cable to Hawaii that will enable us to give warning of storms com- ing out of the Pacific, which today swoop down upon the coast with but few hours’ warning and do great damage. Such a service would greatly benefit the people of that section. Merit, Not Partisnnship. “My main object as chief of the bureau will be to increase the percentage of ac- curacy in the ordinary forecasts, and I believe that the only way to accomplish this is to adhere strictly to the principle that merit should be the only standard for appointment or promotion. Merit and par- tisanship are not synonomous terms, and sre will be none of the latter in this fice. I think that a great deal can be ac- complished, too, in the direction of broad scientific inquiries bearing upon the work of the bureau, and no effort will be spared to widen our field of information and to irereast our efficiency. There is no limit to the scope of science, and there should be no steppage in the work of original in- vestigation, for which this bureau is today wonderfully well equipped. Congress pays considerable attention to this bureau, and appropriates large sums annualiy for its maintenance. I believe that the best return we can give for the money is a service that will insure fie peo- ple whose capital is invested on the plains, the lakes or the scas, a service that will prevent them from being taken by sur- prise by great sterms, of every one of which ample warning can be given if ob- servers and forecasters are efficient. The Star's Weather Map. “I wish to compliment The Star upon the reproduction of the weather map which it publishes every afternoon. It is by far the best map that has ever been published in any newspaper in this country, and is doubtless of great interest to the people of Washington. It is aiso of service to the bureau, and I am glad that so great a paper has undertaken this commendable enterprise. should ever be spared to make every individual familiar with the weather conditions as they exist through- out the country and to understand why certain phenomena occur. Hence, the value of such a map as The Star prints is cx- ceptionally great, especially as the map is so perfectly reproduced. 1 hope that the other great newspapers of the country will emulate this good example.” Mr. Moore has taken quarters at the Chevy Chase Ina. He fs virtually a Wash- ingtonian, and has lost no time in getting down to business. He has had a varied experience, being in a peculiar sense, al- though but thirty-nine years of age, a vet- eran of the late war. He went to the front while but eight or nine years old and sold newspapers to the soldiers, and being very enterprising he made quite a success in this urdertaking. Later he went into the olflic of the Burlington Hawkeyé and occupied various posts on that journal, both in the composing room and on the reportorial staif, In this way he became acquainted with the late Frank Hatton, who was at one time and it w: Moore. Mr. editor of that journal, throush his recommendation that he mi entered the weather service, when he was appointed a private in the old signal corps i then and was sent to Fort Fort Whipple, to study. Harmonious Management. While stationed in this city before he was a member of the Washington Light Infantry. He is a Mason of high degree, and virtually has friends in every part of the country. He has been besieged with letters and telegrams of sratulation ever since his appointment was announced. The bureau is now working under har- monious management for the first time in many months, and already a change in the atmosphere is apparent. The unfortunate relations that had Harrington and Morton tood by all the employes, and of course, detracted from the cy of the service, as it weakened the discipline. Already the change is oper- ing to bring about a different state of and the employes of the bureau are working more smoothly. at Secretary Morton Says, Secretary Morton arrived in New York terday morning. The secretary took the chaffing about the weather good-naturedly and made no excuses for the first day's work of his new chief, Willis L. Moore, but claimed to a reporter that the new man is the best forecaster of the weather bu- reau, “We don't want scientific deductions,” said the secretary; “we want forecasts. ‘This new man won his promotion by a good record as a forecaster. He was brought up in the service from boyhood. He was My chosen on the day that Howgate, a former chief, was sentenced to prison. Twenty years before, to a day, Willis Moore was confined in the guard house by order of Howgate for refusing to indorse some dis- honest reports of the then chief. You might call ft retributive justice. There has been a great deal of talk about politics in the appointment of Moore. I never asked his politics until after he was sworn in. “To tell the truth, Mr. Morton,’ was his reply, ‘I have always voted the republican ticket “He was chosen because he can forecast the weather. He has a system of his own which he explained to me privately. It is little short of wonderful, and it has been his secret for years. I suggested that he was now at the top, and could afford to give the other boys in the service the ben- efit of his secret, and he has promised to do so. The result will be that we will have more faithful weather forecasts than ever before in the history of the bureau.” - NEWFOUNDLAND TARIFF The Principal Dutiable Articles Are Those on the Free List, Onc Retalintory Measure That is Evidently Directed at the United States. Consul Ryan at St. John’s has sent to the State Department a copy of the new tariff of the colony of Newfoundland. The prin- cipal articles are dutiable as follows: Horses, $6; cured meats, $2.65 per hundred- weight; butter $3 per hundredweight; cheese, same; cigars, 20 per cent and $0 per 1,000; cigarettes, 30 per cent and $2 per 1,000; coals, and 30 cents per ton; flour, 25 cents per barrel; Indian corn, 6 cents per brshel; meal, 25 cents per ba lumber, $8 per 1,000 feet; dressed lumber, $5 per 1,000 fest; pork, $1.50 per 200 pounds; salt, 20 cents a ton; brandy, $3.20 a gallon; other spirits, same; whisky, §: gin, $2.30; rum, cordials, $2.20; sugar, first grade, $5 per hundredweight; second grade, $4; third grade, $3.50; Umber, 60 cents per ton; to- bacco, 30 cents per pound; machinery, tools, manufaciured iron, tin, ete., 10 per cent ad valorem; leather, 23 per cent; saws cen cuits and sweet breads, cert; ready made clothing, 35 p Among the articles on the free Hst agricultural implements, live stock breeding, raw totton and yarn, hemp, ete undressed hides, household furniture and tools for persons arriving in the colon materials for building vessels, iron to be used in manufacturing, raw wool, type- writing machines and wheat. Drawbacks are allowed on a number of articles manufactured in the colony. Some retaliatory measures are levied, one being directed at the United States.. This pro- vides that when any country having the privilege of taking fish on the Newfound- jand coast exacts a duty on such importa- tions there shall be charged in addition to he regular duties on articles imported into wfoundland the following: Flour and pork, 75 cents per barrel; tobacco, $5 per hundred , 5 cents per gallon; corn meal, 25 cents a barrel; hay, $ a ton; oats, 10 cents a bushel, potatoes and turnips, 25 cents a bushel; cabbage, 40 cents a dozen, and other vegetables, 3 per cent ad valorem. The governor has the privilege of suspend- ing this provision from time to time. Other retaliatory provisions are directed at Greece and Spain. —— An Important Firing Test. An important test has been made re- cently at Indian Head, which will have a bearing on the construction of the new battle ships, over which there has been so much contention. It ‘was claimed by the chief of the ordnance bureau that the eight-inch guns would be rendered useless in an engagement in which the vessel had her bow or stern toward the enemy, be- cause if fired over the turret containing the large guns the blast from the rear guns would kill the men in the sighting tower. Capt. Sampson ordered the test made by having an eight-inch gun fired over an inch steel plate, the thickness of the plate designed to cover the sighting tc The muzzle of the gun was twenty-four inch above the plate, and the first charge beat the plate down in the center four inches, while a second charge still further bent the plate eight inches on one end and nine inches on the other. This plate was about five by four and a half feet and the sup- ports were equal to those that could be placed on the ship. Thee test has caused the officers of the ordnance bureau to re- new their assertion that the concussion of the eight-inch gun would kill the men at work in the upper portion of the tur- ret. . ————————~o+____. A Trial of a Turret. Seeretary Herbert has made arrange- ments for a practical trial of a turret, as nearly as it can be represented on shore. Orders have been given to construct a framework as nearly as possible resembling the turret of the Massachusetts, and upon this will be placed a ballistic 13-inch plate, one of those specially wrought for the Massachusetts. The turret will be placed upon rollers just as on shipboard, and shot at @rst to see how much It is displaced by a heavy shot and again to learn how the framework stands and whether the plate can be torn away from its fastenings by the blow. This experiment will be costly, but it is belleved that the result may be to save much money in the end. “ No Yellow Fever at Tampa. Surgeon General Wyman of the marine hospital service sent a telegram to State Health Officer Porter of Florida asking for information concerning the reports of the appearance of yellow fever at Tampa, Fla. Dr. Porter replied that he hag seen no yellow fever at Port Tampa or Tampa. He (Dr. Porter) understands that the re- port of the appearance of the disease came trom 2 discharged employe of the passen- ger department at Tanipa. The health ofti- cer’s telegram was sent frem Port Tampa, to which place he had just returned from the quarantine station attached to the port. Waat to Keep Liberty Bel ‘The Sors of the Revolution held a meet- ing in Philadelphia yesterday afternoon to formulate plans for the prevention of the proposed trip of the old Liberty bell to the Aulanta exposition. A committee was ap- yointed to wait on Mayor Warwick, which they did later in the day, in an eifort to irduce him to join In the opposition to the bell's removal. The mayor, however, was of opinion that if the bell was taken to Georgia it would prove an invaluable les- Stn 4 patriotism, aud knit the north and south in a loser union. As city councils were the guardians of munictpai property, and had consented to the excursion of the relic, the only way of preventing it was to file a bill tn equity in the courts. The com- mittee reported the result of their visit to their crganization, and it was resolved to bold a mass meeting on Monday next, and should that prove imffective, to institute icgal proceedings. see Fenders Adopted in Brooklyn, After consultation with Mayor Schieren ot Brookiyn, President Clinton L, Rossiter of the Brooklyn Heights Railroad Com- pany has made up his mind to adopt a terder approved by the mayor, Yesterday a Lumber of them were attached to the cars of the company, and before many days the entire rolling stock of the com- pany will be equipped with the new safety devices, which nave been used in Bualti- more. It is hoped by this move to prevent further accidents in Brooklyn, and put a stop to the agitation against trolley cars, which has been going on during the past years, because of more than one hundred persons having been killed there since the inauguration of the electric street railways. ——+e<—_____ Fifteen Hundred Now ‘The wire drawers’ strike, augurated at the American Cleveland Wednesday, has on Strike. which was in- wire works at spread to the Bu 's Wire Nail Ccmpany and H.

THE RUSSIAN LEGATION.— Almost a Complete Change to Be Made in Its Personnel, An almost complete change is about to be made in the personnel of the Russian legation here. Prince Cantacuzene, the present minister, now in Russia on leave of absence, will return to Washington in September only to present his letters of recall and pack up his effects, for he will be transferred and become Russian min- ister at Stuttgart. This change will be made at the prince's own request. He has family reasons for being near his estates in Russia. Whil? Prince Cantacuzene'’s suc- cessor has not yet been definitely named, it is understood that he will be M. Kotza- buk, now minister at Stuttgart, so that it will amount to an exchange of places be- tween ministers. Then M. Botkine, the pres- ent second secretary of legation here and charge d'affaires, has been promoted to be first secretary of legation at Darm- stadt. This is a new post in the Russian diplomatic service created as a special compliment to the empress, who is a native of that principality. The duties of charge of the legation here will be assumed by M. Saumoff, who has just arrived from Bu- Charest, where he was second secretary of legation, to succeed M. Botkine in that capacity here. M. Saumoff will be in charge until the arrival of M. de Meck, the newly appointed first secretary, who is expected to arrive in this country very soon. More Time for Answer Granted.
