which will be within the next 10 days
presented to contractors for bids on
the different sections of the work.
The new syndicate for the construc
tion of the Nicaragua canal will soon
know within a few million dollars just
how much it is going to cost, finished1
and ready for the passage of the first
ship. A rough estimate from the data
at hand on the return of Mr. Crarain
Mr. and Cooley. from their trip over
the canal a few weeks ago, placed tbe
cost within ST.i.OOP, 000. Mr. Coolev
was of the opinion that as further data
was collected regarding tbe nature of
the excavation over a part of the
route, the cost might be cut down to
$65,000,000. This is far inside the es
ti males which have ben presented to
congress in the appeals of the Mari

No Room For Doubt That the Maine Was
Dlown up From Wilhoat.
New York, March 4 A dispatch
to the Tribune from Havana says:
The leading f.icts of the Maine dis

the ijaval board. The divers have
coctinued their work during' the
absence of the board at Key West.
They have iTsoove.-el nothing to
change the e'-idoncp gat.r'erpd. whirfi

was external. Thpi-- examination this
week " has extended alongside the
plates, and they have penetrated for
ward well into the how. AU they find
is merely cor.flrmitory of - whut was
previously diacttve'ed.
Captain Sampson and his aasoeiats
were especially anxous to await fur
ther work by the dlvors to determine
whetber .iir not mistakes ' had hepn
made in ar- particular. Nothing has
been found to Indicate a mistake. On
the contrary, the more thoroughly the
hull is examinad the morn convincing
appears the original evidences of ex
plosion from withont. - How long the
board will take to formulate-it con
clusions on this point can be better
judged in Washington than in Ha

New .York, March 4. Appecialto
the Herald from San Jose, Costa Hica,
indicates that war between Costa

correspondent adds that there is great

A corps of 1000 volunteers left San

BOC.NDARY IN DISPUTE '
The. Dominion Government May Try to
Take Dyes and Ska e way.
Tacoma. March 5. Ex-Chief of Po
lice D. O. Smith, of this city, arrived
here this afternoon direct from Skag
way and Dyea.
When he left Skagway four days
aeo, Mr. Smith says a detachment of
United States troops, consisting of
two officers and 33 men, had just start
ed up the trail to haul down the Eng
lish flag and order the Canadia
mounted police not to attempt to col
lect custom duties at the summit, or
in fact, on any of the territory under
dispute.
At Dyea and Skagway, Chief Smith
reports there is serious talk of the
Britishers coming there and taking
possession of both those places. '
The position taken by the Canadians
in encroaching upon American terri
tory is well understood in official cir
cles at Victoria and Ottawa. Tbe
Canadians who are attempting to
secure possession of the passes and
trails to the Klondike, seek to secure
au interpretation of the clause allow
ing the United States a dt ip of 30
miles that will draw the boundary 30
miles from the open ocean, regardless
of inlets.
aagway and Dyea would, under
such an iiHeroreiaiion, be over 50
miles in6ide of the British boundary,

Washington, March 7 Chairman
Cannon, of the appropriations com

the houso entitled "making appropria

as follows:
Resolved, That there is hereby ap

It was referred to tbe committee on

The Cannon bill, it was learned

held at tbe White House this morning
at which Cannon, Secretary Long.
Dingley, Allison and Grosvenor were
present. The situation was consider

that an immediate appropriation of

ham in the resptendestdisplay of pre
sumably precious stones at the opera or
other smart functions is impossible to
tell nowadays, for my lady mixes the
two together with a calm audacity that
is a development of late years, the old
theory that a lady must wear nothing
that is not real being apparently quite
out of date. The modern adaptation of
this social rule is that if a woman has a
certain amount of fine jewelry she may
wear as many false ones in addition as
he can without making the fact con
spicuous. It is only in these who have
no real ones that the display of false
gems ia vulgar.
A fashionable woman in town, whose
position is unquestionable, wears sev
eral strings of pearls, one of which is
real and the rest shams, and hardly
knows herself which is the genuine.
Another woman, -who owns a couple of
diamond stars, has presented herself
with several others the best "bril
liants,' whose glittering radiance is
quite undimmed by their juxtaposition
with the real stones. At a birthday
dinner recently the heroine of the oc
casion wore a ruby surrounded br
pearls asta brooch. This -was greatly
admired. Taking it from the lace
which it fastened, she passed it to one
of her friends. The jewel 'was handed
from one to another until it had made
the circuit of the table. All the guests
were people of culture, fnmiliar with
gems, and .some of them were con
noisseurs. . .After the stone had been
unanimously praised theowner fastened
it in its place again, saying quietly: "I
fninlc it is pretty. I bought it yester
day at B 's for two dollars."
It has long been conceded that a
string of bomas pearls may be worn by
a young girl without laying her taste
open to question. It ia a new thing.
however, for rich women to bring real
gems and bogus ones together in such
a way as to deceive the very elect and
it seems a pity that the old standards of
noblesse oblige, affecting the wearing
of jewels and lace, should be lowered.
It is claimed by those who wear false
jewels that no deception is intended, '
the owner being quite willing to ac
knowledge her use of the imitations,
but at aJl events the general public is
deceived and it mar be Questioned
whether my lady goes out of her way to
acknowledge what she is wearing.
I do not see the use of wearing real
pearls," said a well-known society
woman not long ago. "I have half a
mind to sell mine and wear imitations.
No one would ever know." Then she
fully concluded to take this course and
did take it. Hence she rejoices in the
income of $20,000 in bonds, wears pearls
still and even her intimate friends do
not suspect the exchange. N. Y. Trifc-

LIVER AND X BAYS, i
V
Roentgen's Discovery TJm1m
Where That Organ Is XnTOlYM.
uch Is the B fault Baachod la tna BsH
parUnanta of Dapaty Barraoa-Oaaaia '
Vorwood, of th Caltad . I
States Arsav
If a n.an ahonld have the misforannel
to receive a shot in the liver it would
remain there unless found by the an
cient method of probe and knife. X
rays, Roentgen 's process, aided Dy tne
appliances devised by all the electrical .
scientists of the age, are powerless
against the texture of the liver. Prac
tically every other portion of the human
anatomy will yield to the penetrating
power of the fluoresce pe, but that liver
declines to do anything of the kind.
At least this is the decision reached
by Dr. William H. Forwood, of the
United States army. He declares that
he has been unable to locate anything
In or behind the liver when tbe raya
are sent upon the body from the front.
They will not penetrate that organ. '
Dr. Forwood is officially known as
lieutenant colonel and deputy surgeon
general. He is on station at headquar
ters in Washington and the duties of
his office leave him considerable leisure
time. This time he hss used for many,
years in the study of applied science
In the practice of his profession. He
is noted in the medical world as su ex
perimentalist, and has produced some
results which have overturned precon
ceived ideas. As a medical officer of
the army, and a ranking one at that,
he has the facilities at hand or attaina
ble for anything which will assist in
making experiments. As soon as Prof.
Roentgen made his discovery known,.
Dr. Forwood began his experiments.
He secured all tbe appliances by requis
ition, "for the good of the service," and
established a Crookes tube laboratory;
unexcelled in the country. 4
Then he commenced his experiments.
He photographed his orderly from every .
possible standpoint, causing that use-
ful, but somewhst sensitive man to
teel a strong desire to get out of the
service. He practiced on the hospital '
corps, and induced many of those who
sre attached to the general headquarters
in the capital city to submit them
selves to the influence of the rays. He
assembled all of his pictures, but he
never touched a liver. Then he wenti
gunning for livers, but so far has not
been able to land one. . 4
Dr. Forwood was a member of the)
army retiring board which adjourned
Friday morning after balding session
for several weeks at Gen. Merritt's .
headquarters in the Pullman building.
He is. an enthusiast in medical matters,
and especially X rays. It is said that '
he wanted to photograph the alleged '
disability of every officer who appeared
before the board to be examined for
retirement. If they were all right the
rays would show it. But somebody
suggested that one of the officers suf
fered from chronic biliary derange
ment. "Oh, well," said tho deputy surgeon
general, "if that's the matter with him
we'll have to try him in the old way.
I can't get a liver with the rays."
That started the investigation con
cerning the power of the rays. Several
j of the officers detailed for duty on the
I board knew Dr. Forwood's experiments
I with the rays, and they asked him to
' tell what he had done and what the
reason is that the rays will not pierce
a liver. The doctor agreed, but prefaced
his remarks by saying that he knew
no special reason why a liver should ;
resist the rays. He only knew that it
does.
"I have not given it up," he said, "but
It is a singular fact that I cannot get
through a liver. I have succeeded in
drawing , everything else, but this
baffles me. The increasing of the power,
tr voltage, does not help. In some things
this does assist. For instance, you can
lee through a white man much easier .
than you can through a negro. When
a 'darky' is being experimented on you
have to Increase tho power of the in
strument in a marked degree. This Is
due primarily, I suppose, to the pig
ments in the colored man's skin and th .
corresponding density of his covering. ;
Hut this liver business gets me. "
"Tbe annoying nature of this failure '
is shown when you figure the number .
of fellows who get bullets in their liver
lu a battle. It is hard to hit a man in
tbe trunk without invoving one or both
lobes of the organ. Now, a wound in
the liver may or may not be fatal. It
is not necessarily fatal. If the surgeon
goes after the bullet and finds it ha
penetrated the liver, as fsr as I can
see, he will have to trust to luck, cut the
man wide open, or let the ball alone.
It may become encysted in that liver
and remain there for years, and then
the surgeon, if he survives and rela
tives do not interfere, may hold a post
mortem and extract it.
"I can find anything I want by cut
ting, but what I am looking for now i
a means of finding what I want with
out using the knife. If you slash a
man sufficiently you can generally find
what it is that is hurting him, but this
new idea when perfected will, or ought
to, enable field surgeons to determine
whether or not there is any use of fool
ing with a wounded man. But the liver
baffles me. I can see through tbe lungs
and bones and any other substance ia
the body but the liver. 1
"Can you tell what is the matter witK
man who is sick with lung troubles?"
"Under the rays the lungs look like
lace curtains. You see some fine ara
besques, but there is little to the lav
eye to indicate that any trouble ex
ists. What can anyone tell about the
figures in a lace curtain? It takes tho
most expert workers to tell wben m
figure is broken. The lungs are builded
on similsr lines and the exact value of
the rays on such ailments ia sot de-
' termined. I hope that they will dis
close lesions." Chicago Chronicle.
