to encounter decided opposition, both In tho

likely that lion ores will be continued on
the dutiable list at so cents per ion. Mor

scrap reduced to 94.48 per ton, while Hewitt
wants tho resent duty maintained, but

The Trogreis of Sudden Changes from
Higher lo Lower Temperatnre,
Tho results of i preliminary sttuly of
"Cold Waves anil their Progress,'' by
First Lloutenant Thomas M. Woodruff,
Fifth Infantry, acting signal ofllcor, haa
been Issttod in the series of slgnal-sor-vlco
notes. "Cold wnvos" aro defined
its changes from n. higher to a lower
temperature, which seem to bo Inde
pendent ot the ttmo ot day and of the
season of tho year and Have an extend
ed progressive movement across tho
country.
In various investigations and studies,
Lieutenant Woodruff says: It has been
shown that a fall of tcnipcrnturo suc
ceeds or follows an area of low barom
eter, nnd a rlsa pracrdes such an nrea;
and that in general tho revcrjo is truo
of nn area of high barometer, viz: that
n fall precedes and a rise follows It.
Wo should then, perhaps, have theso
questions nsked- Is tho cold the effect
of an nrcn of high barometer, or is tho
nrea of high barometer due to decrease
of temperature? Tito solution of these
questions would, tho writer says, mako
tho study qulto simple nnd give a very
anfo way of predicting cold waves. Not
answering theso questions, but accept
ing the two general conclusions nbovo
given, Lieutenant Woodruff passes to
tho facts presented upon tho trl-tlally
temperature charts of the United States
signal service for tho years 1881, 1882,
1KM ana leal, nnu mo memns oi iian
unrv tn .funn Inclusive.
In vnrlous studies upon the origin
and movement of areas of high and
low barometer, the Lieutenant says It
has been shown goncrnlly that thoy
move almost Invariably across tho
United Stntcs from west to cast. The
determination of tho movement of tho
barometer lnrgoly determines tlio move
ment of tlio following men.

owners of the outstanding bonds declare
In writing that It Is their desire that the
bonds shall become due Hut a majority
of the bondholders have not, In writing,
expressed Ihelr dcslie that the bonds
shall become due. The executors of the
Morgan trust, therefore, contend that the
bonds arc not legally due nnd that they
can not, In the proper discharge of their
trustr reclaim the 8183.000 of bonds sold
by Governor Morgan to the Grant fund,
unless the courts decide that tho bonds
arc legally due. at least to the extent of re
quiting the enfotcement of the guarantee.
They ha o suggested that a friendly suit be
brought to test the question, and th.it
roure Is at present under discussion.
Mr. Jones was aware of this technical oli
jectlon to reclaiming the bonds under the
guarantee as far back as August, but for
reasons beet known lo himself said noth
ing ot It nt tho meeting of the contribu
tors In October. Mr. Hoyt was in
dlgnant when he heard of the objection
and cited t letter written by Henry Day,
one of the executors of the Morgan es
tate, published In the Tilbuut some time
before General Grant's death, tn which
Mr. Day snld : "Krcti If any flaw could
be found In the guarantee from a legal
point of view, under no circumstances
would the executors repudiate Govtrnor
Morgan's written promise which he him
self regarded as a sacred obligation."
Mr. Hoyt thought this statement rather
Inconsistent with the present attitude ot
the executors of the Morgan estate. It
the friendly suit Is brought and the deci
sion dncs not compel the reclaiming of
the boutls under tho Morgan guarantee,
then another meeting of the contributors
will be ended to arrange for tho appoint
ment ot other trustees. Messrs. Jones
and Ilojt are still custodians ot the fund.
II is conceded ny Mr. ltoyt mat tnero is
no likelihood that a majority of the bond
holders will ask that the bonds be de
clared due l.cforc the expiration of tho
Morgan guarantee, on March 1, 1891
Then the bonds will hare no more than
there maikct value. The bonds mature'

that the ImcMiiiciit was badly planned.
