This is the result of experiments with kites flown at distances one to two miles above the surface of the earth, which have been quietly conducted in this city for some weeks. Daily readings have been taken at this altitude and the fact has been established that shifting of the wind oc- curs at a mile level above the earth's sur- face, from twelve to sixteen hours before the same change of direction occurs on the surface. This is due to the same forces which operate to cause wind shifts to pro- duce a storm; one condition being depend- ent on the other. over the withdrawal of his name. it would stick.

Callers on the President Talk About CONFERENCE THIS MORNING Talking With Senator Hanna and CLAIMS OF CANDIDATES A large number of the congressional call- ers upon the President these days talk tar- iff. Cuba is not the sole topic. Neither is the appointment of office seekers. The President looks upon the passage of a sat- isfactory bill as of the utmost imrortance. Inasmuch as the outlook is apparently Growing brighter for an early passage of a tariff bill, it is natural that republican leaders in accord with the administration should discuss the various phases of the question with the President, who person- Senator Hanna and Representative Gros- venor were early callers upon the Presi- dent and had a long talk with him on the subject of, the tariff. Senators Proctor, Nelson, Davis and others were with the President talking on different matters, The Mississippi factions are engaged in @ contest over the case of Simon S.

National Committeeman Hill, also @ White House visitor today, thinks that Matthews’ case is settled for good, and has no idea the nomination will again go to the Senate. Matthews is one of the leaders of the Lynch faction, which is sore That ts the only nomination which the Lynch people have received, and they hoped Senator Quay and Representative Connell of Pennsylvania called upon the President with ex-Postmaster James S.

Bayard, former United States ambassa- dor to England, before a joint convention of the legislature today. The ceremony of delivering the manu- script took place in the spacious chamber ot the house of representatives and was of a most impressive nature. Besides the members of both branches of the general court, many prominent officials of the state and other distinguished citizens were pres- ent, while the galleries of the house were filled with spectators. After President Lawrence had called the joint convention to order Gov. Wolcott, ac- companied by the executive council, Mr. Bayard, Senator George F. Hoar and sev- eral Massachusetts congressmen, entered the chamber, formal proceedings were opened by Clerk Coolidge of the senate, who read the decree of the consistorial convention of London, intrusting the manu- script to Ambassador Bayard, to be de- livered by ‘him in person to Gov. Wolcott of Mussachusetts. The actual presentation was prefaced by an address by Senator Hoar. Horr Eulogizes Bayard. Senator Hoar spoke in terms of high ap- Preciation of ex-Ambassador Bayard’s efforts toward establishing upon a broader foundation the feeling of brotherhood be- tween Americans and Britons. The sena- tor.gave in detail the story of the Brad- ford narration and of the many unsuccess- ful attempts which had been made to secure it for the United States. He con- tinued: “On the 2ist of December, 1895, I deliv- ered an address at Plymouth on the oc- casion of the 275th anniversary of the land- ing of the pilgrims upon the rock. In pre- paring for that duty I read again, with re- newed enthusiasm and delight, the noble and touching story as told by Gov. Brad- ford. I felt that this precious iistury of the pilgrims ought to be in no other cus- tody than that of their children. But the case seemed hopeless. I found myself com- pelled by a serious physical infirmity to take a vacation, and to get a rest from public cares and duties, which was impos- sible while I stayed at home. When I went abroad I determined to visit the locality on the borders of Lincolnshire and Yorkshire from which Bradford and Brewster and Robinson, the three leAders of the pilgrims, came, where the first church was formed, and the places in Amtstefdam and Leyden where the emigrants speyt *thirtes1 years. But I longed especially ‘to see the man- uscript of Bradford at’Fulham, which then seemea to me, as it now seems to me, the most precious manuscript on earth, unless we could recover one‘of the four Gospels as it came in beginning from the pen of the evangelist.

The public interest in the discus- sion promised to exceed that on the Cuban resolutions, and the galleries were crowd- ed from the outset. The parliamentary status of the bill, according to the calen- dar, was that of “unfinished business,” which gave the bill the right of way at 2 o'clock, although it was understood the measure would be taken up before then if the morning business was disposed of be- fore that hour. Prayer for the Queen. The approach of the Victorian jubilee served as the theme for an elocuent in- vocation by the blind chaplain of the Sen- ate, Rev. Dr. Milburn. “‘The long and il- lustrious reign of the gracious lady, Vic- toria, wife, mother, as well as sovereign, he said, “have shrined her in the hearts and reverence of true-hearted men and women around the world. May her last days be her best and happiest. Guide the councils of that realm and of our own beloved country, that hand in hand, they may tread the path of conservative prog- ress to the goal of Christian civilization.” Among the petitions was one presented by Mr. Smith of New Jersey from the liquor dealers of twenty-one counties in New Jersey, protesting against the pro- posed tax on becr. The final conference report on the In- dian appropriation bill was presented, but not acted on. It provides for opening the Uncompahgre Indian reservation in Utah, reserving to the United States the asphalt and gilsonite lands. The bill was passed extending the time for building the railroad bridge across the lllirois river near Grafton, Ill. Also the bill authorizing a bridge over the Clinch river at Kingston, Tenn. Printing Office Deficiency. Mr. Allison of Iowa secured the passage of a joint ‘resolution appropriating $225,000 for deficiencies at the government printing office. Fighting Over the Supply Ship. Another long debate occurred over the chartering of ships to carry relief supplies to India. Mr. Chandler of New Hamp- shire endeavored to get a vote on his propo- sition to send the supplies by any suitable ship. Mr. Morgan of Alabama insisted that American ships under the American flag should be employed. He favored naturaliz- ing two foieign built ships “even if it does grind on some gentlemen who monopolize the coastwise trade in steamships.” , Mr. Gray of Delaware argued “that the white winged messengers of peace and benevolence should beer the American flag.’ Mr. Stewart of Nevada said this sending of grain was a charity, and yet here sen- ators were discussing what display we could make, how we could advertise our- selves, and how the American flag could be in- Senator Chandler’ thereto, shall constitute an offense under said act of July 2, 1890.” Mr. Chardler says that if the pooling bill now per ding in the committee on inter- state commerce is reported and put in a position where it may be pressed through at a session intended for tariff legislation only, especially when the House refuses to do any other business, then the amend~ ment offered by Senator Pettigrew and the above amerdment offered by himself will be placed on the tariff bill by the votes of democrats, populists, silver republicans and other republicans, and retained as a part of the bill. The intention of the amendment 1s to prevent a pooling bill or nullify any action that may be taken towerd passing @ pooling bill. ————— PLACES IN THE TREASURY. to Persons Desirous of Drawing Salaries ne. is incident to charity.

A motion by Mr. Morgan to table the Chandler proposition was defeated, 18—40, and the joint resolution was then passed. Just us it passed, Mr. Sewell (N. J.) made a brief and vigorous statement that this American benefaction should go under the American flag, and Mr. Morgan added: “The American flag is now hauled down.” The final conference report on the Indian bill was then agreed to. Reading the Tariff Bill. The tariff bili was taken up at 2 o'clock, and Mr. White (Cal.), in behalf of the democratic members of the finance com- mittee, submitted a number of tables show- ing the articles on which the duties were from 50 to 75 per cent, from 75 to 100 per cent and over 100 per cent.

I took occasion to tell him the story, and he gave me the assurance, which he has since so abundantly and successfully filled, of his powerful aid. I was compelled by the health of one of the perty with whom I was traveling to go to the continent almost immediately, and was disappointed in the hope of an early return to England. So the matter was delayed until about a week before I sailed for home, when I went to Fulham in the hope, at least, of seeing the manuscript. I had sup- pesed that it was a quasi-public library open to general visitors. But I found the bishop was absent. I asked for the libra- rian, but there was no such officer, and I was told very politely that the library was not open to the public, and was treated in all respects as that of a. private gentleman. So I gave up any hope of doing anything in person. But I happened, the Friday be- fore I sailed for home, to dine with au English friend who had been exceedingly kind to me. As he took leave of me, about 11 o'clock in the evening, he asked me if there was anything more he could do for me. I said: ‘No, unless you happen to know the Lord Bishop of London. I should Uke to get a sight at the manuscript of Bradford’s History before I go home.’ He said: ‘I do not know the bishop myself, but Mr. Grenfell, at whose house I spent a few days in the early summer, married the all for the entire bill, or the total number of “My left car was eo deaf that I could mot hear : ing, $702,805; individual deposits, $14,112,867. | tariff.
