MYSTERI_ES_0II MARS.

Statement of Professor Holden on
the Apposition.

SATISFACTORY RESULTS.

Nothing Is Known as to “’hether the
Planet Is Inhabited or {Not—A Gross
Error Alleged to Have Been Made
by Astronomers in America.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. o.—-Professor Hol-
den, of Lick observatory, telegraphed the
United Press as follows last evening:

The Lick observatrrr “as wpi‘mi to many
inquiries received during the present ob-
servation of Mars, both by telegraph and
by letter. These inquiries indicate a wide-
spread interest, but in very many cases at
least they appear to be based on a misap-
prehension of the kind of work now being
done on the planet here and elsewhere.

The case is not as if astronomers were
pushing out on an unknown ocean, expect-
ing to find an unknown continent or a pas-
sage to India beyond the sea. In such a
case the mere announcement of the discov-
ery would be all that was needed. The
actual circumstances are very different. It
is as if one had undertaken to make a new
survey of the state of Arkansas. He would
begin by measuring base lines and by set-
ting stakes and by observing angles and
distances. At the end of weeks and months
he would have his notebooks filled with
figures, and after a long season of calcula-
tion he would be able to issue a new and
accurate map of the region—more accurate
than any preceding one.

Nothing Definite About Inhabitants.

With respect to Mars it has been pro-
posed by certain very enthusiastic astrono-
mers to determine the further question if
the planet is actually inhabited, and this is
a more difficult and important question
than the mere inquiry as to whether it is
fit to be inhabited. In my opinion the time
is not yet'! come to even speculate on the
larger question, and my reason for saying
this is that I think it very doubtful if all the
observations made, numerous as they are,
are at all sufficient to enable us to reply to
the lesser inquiry. It is very easy and very
convenient to distinguish certain areas on
Marsland from certain other ones, to go on
to describe indentations for gulfs and other
certain lakes as canals, but so far as I know
there is no absolute proof that the dark,
foggy parts of Mars are water. We know

‘ that the vaporific water exists in the Mar-

tial atmosphere. The spectroscope shows
this, andthere are certain white areas at
the poles of Mars which look very much
like snowmps.

It a curious commentary on the difficul-
ties of drawing exact conclusions regarding
a little planet a few thousand miles in
diameter and 40,000,000 miles away to say
that nearly every one of the important ap-
pearances can be accounted for about as
well by supposing the‘ planet to be red hot
and to have a- very extensive atmosphere,
as it can be by supposing the planet to be
cooled 03 and to have land and water and
a rather thin atmospheric envelope.

The latter is the usual hypothesis, and on
the whole it appears to be ‘the ' most likely.
The planet is smaller than the earth, and it
is apparently more likely to be further ad-
vanced in the process of cooling off for that
reason. But there is no positive proof that
it is so, and we should wait for positive
proof direct or indirect before pronouncing.

It is perfectly proper to conjecture. and in- .

deed it is impossible not to do so, but it is
the duty of science to guard itself faith~
fully against promulgating conjectures as
if they Were established facts.

Great Changes on Mars' Surface.

There is very little doubt that by and by
science will be able to interpret all or nearly
all of the phenomena now seen, and to ar-
rive at certainties.

I may say that I have observed the planet
at the. apposition of 1875, and at every ap-
position since that time, and my colleagues
at Mount Hamilton and myself have faith-
fully followed the planet, at the apposi-
tions of 1888 and 1890 and 1892. In fact we
are now giving nearly all the time of the
great telescope to this work. ‘

We have found great changes in the de-
tails of the Martial surface, while the main
outlines have remained much the same.
The changes have seemed to be so great
that it is Often difficult to explain them by
terrestlal analogies. If there are indeed in-
habitants in Mars, I think they might be
surpriSed at some of the conjectures which
are current on the earth regarding their
surroundings. If the white cap at the south
pole of Mars is indeed snow and ice, we can

say it has been a hard Winter fer the Marm

tial Eskimos. If the‘ red areas are land
and the dark ones water, we can describe
the great inundations which have taken
place on the banks of the Lucas Solis, and
the surprising apparition of a duplicate lake
near the Four J uventac. We might inci-
dentally mention the fact that where are
now two lakes there was only one in 1877
and none in 1879, and we are speaking, it
must be remembered, of bodies of water
some hundred square miles in area.

Some time during the present autumn we
shall have finished our observations, and
on: maps will have been completed and
compared with put maps of the same kind
and same sort.

- It is very probable thatawe can. then draw
some conclusions which are certain, and it
is possible that considerable more light may
be thrown on this very obscure problem. If
this moderate statement of whatwe expect
is disappointing, I can only say that the
Lick observatory possesses the greatest of
telescopes, mounted in the most favorable
site known; that nearly the whole time the
telescope has been given to this research,
and that five perfectly competent observers
hava taken part in the Work. I think I am

. justified in saying that no more could be

done than has been done. If at the end the
results are not definite and final, the reason

'must be sought in the extreme difficulty of

the problem in hand.

An Alleged Error of Time.

CINCINNATI, Aug. 5,—Professor Porter, of
the Cincinnati observatory, said to a United
Press reporter this morning that a gross
error had been made by American astron-
omers as to the apposition of Mars. The
American Ephemeris, the standard nautical
almanac, has undoubtedly guided, the as-
tronomers of the nation, but the Berliner
Jahrbuch gives the time of our apposition
with the red planet as clearly as possible at
a little after midnight, Aug. 6. “The error
is so apparent that I cannot understand it.
The astronomers and the newspapers of the
western world have been antedating the
event by three days.”

ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATION.

A Woman Tries to Blow Up a House"
with Giant Powder.

CHICAGO, Aug. 5.—An attempt was made
last night to blow up the residence of C. D.
Erwin, a wealthy board of trade operator,
on Calumet avenue, and th _ police are
searching high and low for it ’5 would be
assassin, who is a woman. The attempt
was made a few minutco after 9 o’clock and
would probably havet‘oeen successful had
not persons passing by frightened the wom-
in, who left a large can half filled with a
high explosive and ran toward the lake.

The can was discovered a few minutes
later, but the finders wfe afraid to touch
It and called Mr. Irwin out. He picked up
the can, and on examining its contents dis-
covered that it was more than half filled
with giant powder. In all there was about
ten pounds of the deadly explosive. The
amount was snmcient, if exploded, to have
brown the building to atoms and to have set
fire to the debris.

Mr. Irwin said last night: “I have not
the slightest idea who the woman is and I
cannot imagine why anybody should cherish
any ill feeling against me. My firm has no
dealing with women, so whatever motive
the woman had it could not be one of
revenge for unfortunate investments. I
cannot believe that thewoman is anything
but a crank. The can and its contents are
in possession of the police and I am not in
the least worried about my safety.”

Great Damage by a Hallatorm.

Kamazoo, Mich, Aug. 5.—The worst
hailstorm that ever occurred in‘this section
came down upon Kalamazoo and the sur‘
rounding country about 3 o’clock yesterday
afternoon, causing great damage. . The
amount of damage done in the city from
window lights broken is estimated at from
85,000 to $7,000. After the bail came a ter-
rific Windstorm, which leveled hundreds of
shade trees in the city. In the country the
damage was almost complete to the wheat
crops that had remained standing. Some
estimate the loss to crops and fruit at $50,-
000.

Archbishop Ireland to Become Cardinal.

ST. LOUIS, Aug. 5.—It is stated in Catholic
.circles here as a certainty that at the negt
meeting of the pope’s consistory the holy
father will announce the appointment of
Archbishop Ireland, of St. Paul, as a mem-
ber of the college of cardinals. A promi~
nent Catholic who is in constant communi-
cation with Rome says: “The appointment
of Archbishop Ireland to be a. cardinal is
just as sure. as any event that has not yet
transpired. "There is no question in 'my
mind about it,"

He Is Willing to Stand by the Letter
Which He Sent to the Pope.

N0 DISRESPEGT INTENDED.

the Publication of Certain Statements,
the Archbishop Says‘, Is an Effort
to Provoko the Publication of
the Preceding Letters.

NEW YORK, Aug. 5.—Archbishop Corri-
[an was seen this morning at the see house,
on Fiftieth street and Madison avenue, in
relation to the cable dispatch from Rome
charging him with disrespect to the pope.
He stated that he was perfectly willing to
give out for publication the letter which
was sent byhim and his fellow bishops to
his holiness Pope Leo, and that if this letter
gives good ground for the charge of disre-
spect to the hoZVy father he, the archbishop,
would be willing to stand by it. He de-
clined, however, to give out for publication
the letters which he sent to the pope previ-
ous to June 13, claiming that what he had
written to the pope was his “own private
business.” '

The Duty of an Inferior Ofilcer. '

The archbishop claims that it is the duty
of an inferior officer to keep his superior
ofi'icer posted as to matters of fact in order
that his judgment may be clear in matters
of moment. .This is all he claims to have
done to his superior ofi‘icer, the pope.

“The publication of certain statements
made by a number of parties both at home
and abroad,” said the archbishop, “is an
efi’ort to provoke me to publish the preced-
ing letters. If ArchbishOp Ireland, of St.
Paul, will publish his ‘Memorial,’ I am will-
ing to publish the preceding letters. This
parochial school scheme of Faribault is
nothing new in this country. It exists in
Pougbkeepsie in my own diocese, in Savan-
nah, Ga, and in fact in difierent localities
in the United States. If I cared to I could
refuse permission for the. coming year for
the Poughkeepsie school. I, however, per-
mit it in this place.” '

. The, letter of Archbishop Corrigan to the
pope, which his graceis willing to stand by
and to supplement if Archbishop Ireland
will only publish his “Memorial,” is as fol-.
lows: ‘ ' ' . ,
New Yoax, June 15.

Moor HOLY FATHER—The apostolic letter
which your holiness deigned to write to us, the
pastors of the ecclesiastical province of New
York, has been joyfully received and most will-
ingly accepted. For it and for the rescript
published in the controversy proposed by the
most reverend archbishop of St. Paul we re-
turn your holineos our best thanks.

With all our strength we always endeavor to
remove dissensions among pastors and to
keep inviolate the bonds of charity among
all, for the promotion of the spiritual welfare
of the faithful and to foster and increase union
with the apostolic see. Nor do we deem that
we have failed in this. the greatest of pastoral
duties, by opening our mind to your holiness,
as we were induced to do so not in a spirit of
313-1119, but through a deep sense of our pastoral
o co. -

Nor did we suppose in like manner that our
letter would suggest even the slightest doubt
of our obedience to the Sec of Peter, both be-
cause wo acted simply in the discharge of duty,
as also because it is well known that we have
always fully and cheerfully obeyed the orders
and advice of your holiness. . ,

Carrying out the wish, with united counsels,
we will employ every means to provide for the
proper instruction of Catholic youth attending
public schools; but lost there be any suspicion
that thus far our episcopal solicltude has not
exerted itself in that direction, we beg to in
form your holiness that in the entire ecclesias-
tical province of New York, Sunday schools
have been established in which, after comply-
ing with the precept of hearing mass, the boys
and girls attending public schools are taught
their catechism Meanwhile, prostrate at the
feet of your holiness, we again profess our obe-
dience to your beatitude and beg the apostolic
benediction.

The archbishop is perfectly willing to
stand by the letter and spirit of the epistle
to the pope, and trusts that his friends will
wait with patience until next November,
when the whole matter will be settled at
the propaganda in Reine.

Death in the Flood.

Sr. PAUL, Aug. 5,—Four acres of water,
averaging twenty-five feet deep, gathered
during recent storms on Page street, above
Co'ucord, in west St. Paul yesterday. The
city engineering department have been at
work. letting water out and started a sluice-
way. They left the work at 5:30 p. 12:.
People around the city noticed the water
running around the sluice, but did nothing
to stop it. _ _

At 9:10 p. In. the bank gave way and the
water came down the ravine ina 15-foot
wall and carried four houses away. so far
as known the list of killedis as follows:
Mrs. August Adams, Mrs. J. Horn and
William Kreiger. Those wounded fatally
are Philip Stroeher and five-year-old son,
August Adams, Frederick Kreiger, Paul
Keuk, Henry Ludwig and John Wilich.

Murdered by a Negro Convict.

JEFFERSON Crrv, Mo., Aug. 5.-Frank
Mackin, superintendent of the large tan-
ning establishment in the penitentiary at
this place, was murdered yesterday by a
negro convict named Jake Brown. The
convict was armed with a heavy shoe-
knife, and made the murderous assault
without warning. The murder was as un-
provoked m it was cowardly. Mackin al‘
ways treated the convicts with great kind~
ness.

Democrats and the Third Party.

Buzzaan’s Bar. Mass, Aug. 5.—Mr.
Cleveland has received a dispatch from
Hon. Thomas B. Jones, who was elected
governor of Alabama last Monday, which
says that the result of the election in Ala-
bama shows that the Democratic party has
nothing to fear from any third party move-
ment in the south this year.

commend the Manchester model to the
American government as a solution of the

SOCIETY \VODIAN O UTBAGED.

She Is the Niece of Chancellor Goschon
and Related to Mrs. Burke Roche.

LONDON, Aug. 5.—A horrible outrage is
reported from the neighborhood of Chisel-
hurst, Kent. The victim is Miss Woods, 3
niece of the Right Hon. George J. Goschen,
chancellor of the eXchequer, and therefore
a connection by marriage of Mr. Burke
Roche, of New YorIP. Miss Wood is the
daughter of the vicar of Lickley, Kent.

Last evening she took awalk in the direc-
tion of Chiselhurst with a lady companion.
At a lonely spot about half way between
the vicarage and Chiselhurst two rough
looking boors accosted the ladies.

The boots carried guns, and their tone
Was impudent and threatening. They asked
Miss Woods where she was going. The
young woman told them, and also said that
she was the vicar’s daughter,.hoping they
would for that reason spare her annoyance.
The boots saw that the women were frig t-
ened, and one of them laid hands on iss
Woods, the other at the some time attempt-
ing to seize her companion. The latter
eluded the fellow’s grasp and fled, leaving
Miss Woods in their clutches. One of the
rufians attempted pursuit, but the lady,
screaming at the top of her voice, ran so
fast that she escaped him. She hurried to
the nearest dwelling and gave an alarm.

The police were quickly notified and
started for the spot where Miss Woods had
been abandoned by her companion. They
found the young lady in a horrible condi-
tion. She was lying on the grOund, with a
shot wound in her face and her clothes dis-
ordered. She was still alive, but uncon-
scious and unable to give any account of
her terrible experience. his believed that
the rufiians, finding her resistance too much
for them, shot her and left her for dead.
Whether she will survive is as yet uncer-
tain. The police are searching the untry
for the guilty parties and are nfident
that they will be under arrest before long.

Miss Woodshas been a great social favor-
ite in the rural neighborhood where her fa-
ther omciates as vicar, and she is admired
for her beauty: It is believed that the ruf-
fians who assaulted if they did not murder
her also belong to the neighborhood, and
that they saw her and her companion start
out for their walk and procured guns with
the object of intimidation and outrage.

Chancellor Goshon is deeply afiected by
the afiair, as Miss Woods was his favorite
niece. It is said that Miss Woods’ condi-
tion when found showed that she had
made a desperate struggle in defense of her
virtue.

,. Want the Tolls Abolished.

' Orrawa, Aug. 5.—There shown Pre-
mier Abbott yesterday that , g a dispatch
from Washington to the effect that Presi-
dent Harrison would not issue any proclama-
tion putting into operation the statute
authorizing him to impose tolls upon foreign
vessels using theSeult Ste. Marie canal, but
would simply order his oflcials tocollect
the tolls. The premier said that whenever
the tolls were imposed the government
would pay them and then lay the matter
before the British government. Business
men interested in shipping are urging the
government to stop the rebate system and
to collect full tolls on all-vessels alike, or
abolish the tolls altogether. The govern-
ment would like to do so but for the fact
that it looks like yielding under pressure
from Washington.

 

Iron Hall Elects Officers.
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 5.—The Iron Hall
Building company had its regular yearly
meeting at 1317 Arch street, this city, last
night, and elected oficers for the ensuing
year. The meeting was largely attended
and lastod until long after midnight. There

was some close voting, which resulted in

the defeat of Freeman D. Somerby for re-
election for president, although he was re—

electedatrustoe. There were thirty cany

didates‘of whom fifteen were, elected. A
number of women stockholders attended,
but the two women candidates for trustee
were defeated by the men. A. R. Elasser
was elected president and Colonel H. C.
Williams was re-elected secretary-treasurer.

Suicide 0! a Miser.

Darrow, 0., Aug. 5.—Frederick Kayser,
an aged, eccentric and wealthy raiser,
hanged himself yesterday as the result of a
quarrel with his daughter. Kay-oer, though
worth over a quarter of a million of dollars,
dressed‘in rags and looked and acted like a
distressed mendicant. For the past twenty-
fivo years his daily evocation has been the
collection of garbage and slope, which be
fed to stock on his farm. His only daugh-
ter, a cultured girl, endeavored to induce
her father to clean up and discontinue his
slop gathering. This so incensed the old
man that'ho took his own life.

Indiana Town Destroyed by Fire.

Jnmnsomnnn, Aug. 5.-—The town of
Borden, about eighteen miles from here,
was visited by a disastrous fire at noon yes
terdey and almost two-thirds of the town
destroyed. Eleven men were prostrated
by the heat while fighting the fire. The
people become panic stricken at the ad-
vance of the flames, and it was with dim-
culty that they could be secured to begin
the work of extinguishing the fire. Out ol
the twelve men injured two will probably
die. The low it is behaved will be about
$30,000. '

Senator Colquitt Does Not Improve.

NEW YORK, Aug. 5.-A special to The
World from Washington says the condition
of Senator Colquitt does not improve. Mrs.
Colquitt is now with her husband and she
intends to remove him to some health re-
sort as soon as possible. The senator’s right
side is paralyzed and his articulationis af.
fected. Mr. Colquittis sixty-eight years old,
and until recently was a robust man.
