One branch passed to the ground through a Post, while the other tore its way through a window, jumped to the lightning cir- cult and made a tour of the house, splin- tering a screen, a looking mass and a bed in.which Dr. Steinmetz might have been sleeping had he arrived 24 hours earlier. Instead of bemoaning the damage, Dr. Stelnmetz got busy wilh a camera, a tape Hne and a motebocfk, and collected “evidence” which he savs was of ines- timable value in the plan of his light- ning generator. If he wanted to, Dr. Stelnmentz sald, he could cut loose on argificial bolt that would do as much damage as did the one which assailed his camp. But he is content with producing ona ffive-hjn- dredth as much “ki Producing the larger bolts would involve great expense and the bolt would be too dangerous to observe at close quarters. Dr. Stelnmet's generator consists es- sentially of a high voltage condenser in the form of 200 glass plates. These are arranged in two rows, in groups of fifty, and are capable of holding 12,0,000 volts af electricty. One end of the double row of con- densers corresponds to the thunder clond in the sky, in which an electric current is gradually stored up and increased by the conglomeration of the rain drops, s Dr. Steinmetz has shown. The other end of the condeser plates corresponds to the earth. 7 When the tension of the stired energy becomes greater than the gemerator will hold, the discharge takes placs. The lightning flash is seen, the thunder rolls —represented by a loud snapping sound —and the bolt strikes. HARVARD CONTINUES TO GRANT WAR DEGREES Cambridge, Mass, Mareh 2.—Harvard is still granting war degrees. It was an- nounced today that the governing boards of Harvard university had granted 143 degrees in the annual mid-year award, of which a number were awarded be- cause of war service and 27 wers post- humous degrees, granted to men who never completed their coliegs require- ments but who met death in the war.

London, March 2—(By the A. P.)— The political crisis projected by the prime minister yesterday has made no fro- gress toward solution, and nobody ven- tures a prediction asto how it will even- tually be solved. In its essence it is less a personal conflict between Mr. Lioyd George and Sir George Youneer, leader of the conservative secessionists, than a symptom of the struggle on the bart of the three principal parties, conservative, ifberal and labor, to abandon the coalition system, which is generally considered t> fave outlived jts usefuiness, and get back to the old party system., In this struggle Mr. Lioyd Geonge cocu. Dies a somewhat anomalou position, in agmuch as, although head of the govern- ment, he has no direct controi of the party funds or the electoral machinery, sines he is the accepted leader of nefther the consenvatives or the liberals, each wing of the coalition having retained its own party machinery. Sir George Youngers of the unfonist or- ganization, which controls the party furds d rédrresents the whole conservative par- ty of the country. He was appointed to that position by Andrew Bonar Law, who, although he retired from the leadership of the houee of commons on account of ill health, is still titular leader of te con- servative party as a whole. Younger therefore cannot be dethroned sxcept by a vote of the whole parfy, and, if he elects to stand firm, will continue to con- trgl the party’s funds. . Thef revolt includes about fifty of the “die members of the house of com- mons, but it has the sympathy of a great number of the other conservatvie members and their conservative' following in the country. Presumably therefors the crisis ontinue until a meeting of the whole conservative party is held. Sir George Younger and his a.jierents are credited with being fully awdre that thyy stand no chance at present with the ""m-ue. but would [prefer to be in op- {odkiition rather than continue an arrange- ments in which they are powerless to ad- vance their own policy in the ooalition. On the other hand, the ministers, both con- servative and liberal, are anxlous to maintain the coaltion government in power because they consider there s little prospect of the government being return- ed to power in the avent of dissolution and eleotions. Much is held to depenl upon whether the Gonservative ministers, A. J. BaMfour, Lord Birkenhead and Austen Chamberlain, witl be able to exert sufficlent pressure on the Youngerites to mend the schism in the party. If they cannot, it is belfeved cer- tain that the fprime minister will resizn, leaving the conservatives to form a gov- ernment. Probably Mr. Chambpriain would head such an administration, be- cause Mr. Balfour s supposed to be con- tent with the laurels brought from Wash- ington and would not seek: another rrem- fership under such precarious conditions. While a new conservative administra- tion thus formel was engaged in clearing up the legislative business of tre parlia- mentary session Mr. Lioyd George would be free to devote himeelf to the work of forming a national fparty of centrist-lb: eral complextion. Whether he could still regain his former ascendency in the lib- eral's estimation, or would be compalled to form a mew party from ths modsrate elements in both conservative and liberal ranks is a theme of keer sydoulation. While every everything 1Is yet in the realm of speculation, there ls one ‘indl- cation tonight of the swift approach of either dissolution or some new develop- ment. It is announced that the king has accepte] the resignation of Lord Tre- vethin from the office of lord chief justice. Lord Trevethin was appointed to this po- slos only about a year ago. The natural success or to the chief justiceship at that time was Sir Gordon Hewars, but the premier wanted to retain Sir Gdrdon as attorney general in ris zovernment. 1t is unofficially announcsd now that he will succeed Lord Trevethin, and this would Involve changes in ths ministry, or might be considered In some quarters as an indication of the coming end of the present government. It is announced that the premler's pro- jected political campaign in the provinces Tas been temporarily suspended. CONTEST IN COMMONS OVER IRISH FREE STATE BILL London, March 2 (By the A. P.)—The committee stage of the Irish Free State bill in the house of commons today de- veloped a prolonged duel between the government and the “dis hards.’ The discussion was- qulet except , at one point, where Winston Churchill, who was in charge of the bill, raised a storm b ydeclaring: “If the hotise should mod- iy, extend or amplify, or otherwise change the treaty, the biil would be dead, the treaty would be dead, and the government would be dea This caused considerable laughter, and Sir Frederiay Banbury. mnlonist, retorted: “Tn that case 1 must perse vere with my amendment.” The discussion was on tha Banbury amendment, proposing to make it plain that the treaty was batwaen Great Brit- aln and Southern Ireland. mot between Great Britain and TIreland.
