The Central bank has suspended specie payments and a cendition of near panic reigned. Considerable fear was held as to probable developments during the prospective occupation’of the city.

All roads;leading to the observatory stations were closed to prevent the scientists from being disturbed and traffic in the harbor was stopped so the United States naval observatory scientists might observe the effect of the eclipse upon the water. The phenomenon was visible to only a small part of the carth—a slightly curved streak about 100 i miles wide beginning in the Indian 1 ocean just east of the African shore |and extending up through Polynesia and out into the Pacific.

They expected to obtain valuable data on Einatein's theory of relativity. German E: ‘The Hamburg., Germany, observa- tory expedition, headed by Dr. Wal- ter, made its observations from the village of Bagacay, island of Cebu. A powerful telescope with a range of 150,000,000 ‘miles, transported to this corner of the world at great ex- pense and labor, was trained on the phenomenon. Its recordings of the flaming corona of the sun, during its period of total obscurity would, the aclentists hope, provide invaluable data on the theory of relativity and perhaps on the composition of the sun's elements.

Scientists said today's eclipse may have a revolutionizing effect on many accepted theories—for in- stance, if Einstein is proved right, then the Kantian concepts of time and space will be proved untrue. During’ totality, photographs of stars nearest the sun were made. Tonight ‘the same stars were photo- graphed. If during the interval, the relative positions of the stars appear, to have deviated, Einstein's theor of light will have been confirmed. It will take wecks or months b fore the results are studied, check- ed, and conclugions drawn.
