He stated that the sixth_ Catholic hospital would be built in Baltimore and a fund of $3,000,000 is available for this purpose. An archdiocesan home for the aged also will be erected.

J., February 16.— One more barrier has been removed from an understanding of the invisl- ble universe of the atom by a Prince- ton University sclentist, according to an announcement made at the univer- sity vesterday. The forces within the atom, which I hold together the protons and elec | trons—positive and negative charges | of electricity, of which all substance 1s composed—for the first time have been measured directly and correlated with atomic theory in the Palmer physical laboratory by Dr. Karl T. Compton, professor of physics, and his associates, the announcement said. This has been done by obtaining ex- act quantitative information regarding the energy in the various states of activity in the hydrogen atom. Dr. Compton’s experiments confirm the theoretical explanation of the com- position of the atom made by the Danish physicist Bohr, which has been the subject of debate between chemists and physicists, and hitherto not confirmed by direct measure- ments. 2 Princeton physicists belleve these experiments will assist sclence in un- derstandinz more exactly the condi- tions of internal activity in sub- <tances under which chemical changes ake place, and hence make it pos: o manipulate chemic i tsurance of oltai .

FORT WORTH, Tex., February 16.—A strike affecting the entire Mis- souri Pacific Railroad system is threat- )ened by national representatives of three railroad brotherhoods who ar- rived here to conduct strike negotia- nd Pacific Rail- They announced that an ultimatum had been sent to the Missourl Pacific that any attempt to use Missouri Pa- cific crews on the Texas and Pacific line between New Orleans and Alex- andria, La., to replace Texas and Pa- cific men who might be called out would result in a strtke order to all Missourl Pacific men. The Brotherhood of Locomotive En- gineers, the Brotherhood of Locomo- tive Firemen and Enginemen and the Brotherhood of Rallroad Trainmen are the organizations involved. The Texas and Pacific men have voted in favor of a strike. They con- tend that the road has violated its contract with them by entering into an agreement with the Missouri Pa- cific to pool tonnage of the two lines between New Orleans and Alexandria, La., declaring that the bulk of it is handled by Missourl Pacific crews, with the consequent release of Texas and Pacific employes.
