6 AURORA CUTS OFF CITY ALL ITS WIRES CRIPPLED. Wide Disturbance Due to Electro- Magnetic Phenomena. The Atlantic cables were interrupted and the telephone and telegraph wires < hro »* h °"' crn New York.

The *«*■•» Latin in origin, and mean '.'northern dawn . or light." The phenomenon. as a rule, manifests itself M an illumination of the heavens in the Arctic regions, and is thought to be the result ct a discharge of electricity through the atmos phere. _ The disturbance «•■ first noticed about 7 o'clock in the morning by the »ire chiefs in the telegraph offices. At about the same time the Atlantic cable was alas affected. The cause of the disturbance was immediately recognized by the operators, although they Fay that rarely if ever before has the attack been so severe. The effect af the phenomenon upon the wires Is al ways intermittent in character The wires ap pear to be working ail rial*, until suddenly a "break" occurs, which may continue for some ■mill lll Then the wires start working again. but at first not with the same vigor. As nearly every wire radiating from New York was out of commission for some time, it was difficult to ascertain the extent of the dis turbance. It is known, however, that the phe r.omenon first made itself felt over Southern New England and then took a westerly course, effecting all circuits as far west as Plttsburg. The telephone wires between New York «nd Chicago also were completely paralysed while the disturbance vas at its height. It a,« nearly U o'clock before the wave move ment gave any Flcns of passing. The Western ITnion offices reported that th- disturbance as far as they Mere concerned wholly subsided at 10 o'clock, but cane on again in milder form at 2 o'clock in the afternoon. At one time the measuring instruments la the telegraph offices registered the presence on the wires of over five hundred volts of electric current. This is said to lie a greater voltage than is furnished for the operation of any of the land wires and was sufficiently powerful to light several of the incandescent resistance lamps attached to the telegraph wires. An array of brilliant sparks flash across the gaps when the keys were opened. The aurora ntill baffles the scientists, although it Is known to be closely associated with the electro-magnetic system of th earth, both in origin and visibility. The intermittent effects i r» not fully understood, what is considered the most probable explanation being that solar radi ations posses electro-magnetic energy which, upon reaching the earth. divides into two prin cipal fields, one passing through the earth nearly parallel to the line Joining th^ two magnetic poles and the other passing through parallel to the plane Of th- elliptic. The first field is gov erned by the law of magnetic induction and the second by the law of magnetic refraction. Boston.

It was found here that when the wires were laid un derground the lines had largely escaped inter ference. irsssstasgtasv. Bent 25. — The severest magnetic aOsras recorded at the finite (Md.) mag netic observatory of the Coast and Geodetic Sur vey since the observatory was put In operation, In April. ISOI. was Indicated on that institu tion's delicate instruments to-day. The preva lence of this storm was first noted by the ob server Just before v o'clock this morning. Offi cials of the Cheltenham Observatory say that the reported interference in the working of the telegraph lines this morning was no doubt due to the prevalence of this mapnetic storm. The disturbances began about 2 M o'clock this morning, but the very large disturbance did not occur until a little over four hours later. The disturbance was bo great as to displace the magnets beyond the limits of the record sheets and to upset the adjustments of the instruments. The dally meteorological reports of weather conditions throughout this and foreign countries to the United States Weather Bureau were vitally affected by the crippled condition of tele graphic and cable service. Officials of the United States Naval Observa tory here were immensely interested in the con ditions brought about by the aurora borealis. but said that the time service there was not in the least affected by the disturbance. • . Cincinnati. Sept. 25.— Telegraph business in •Cincinnati is seriously hampered by peculiar earth currents. The electric waves were felt first about 5:45 p. .m Friday, and at 9:30 a. m. to-day reached a maximum of 105 volts, so that they worked counter to the electric batteries of both the Western Union and Postal Telegraph companies. At the Western Union offices the experiment was conducted of shutting off the batteries and working a single wire between Cincinnati and St. Louis by the panrer of this earth electricity. The plan worked all right as long as the earth current lasted steadily, but it was not feasible for general work, because the current eras too unsteady. Chicago, Sept 25. — Violent electrical earth cur rents. bellpv«»d to emanate from the aurora borealls, to-day disturbed the telegraph service over the entire country and for a time stilled the ticking of the Morse instruments in the offices of the great telegraph companies. While the drift of the currents, noticeable In cities from San Francisco and Seattle to New York, was apparently to the east, its strength was little more pronounced in one section of the country than in another. The currents were first felt about 5 o'clock In the morning and increased In intensity for two hours, reaching the heaviest wave at 7:10 a. ra- when all the telegraph activities were at a standstill. The force of the disturbing cur rents was so great that fuses were blown out ■ad resistance lamps lighted up brilliantly. Shortly after 7 o'clock the currents began to subside and Intermittent service was resumed. The conation, at 9 o'clock were fast becoming normal. >T- Operators Ions; in the business unhesitatingly • *-:-. bed the "dood" wires to the aurora borsaiis, ••dtholreisjlHjon was reinforced by Weather Bjlroau experts Professor David Cuthbertson tfecl&refl the phenomenon was without question *•• to the aurora borealls. which, he said, al «•»• •AOnmptnied a high pressure in atmos pheric conditions.

BRITISH WIRE SYSTEM HAMPERED Underground Telegraph Suffers More than the Overhead. I>ondon. Sept. 25.-The whole telegraphic system of the United Kingdom and all cable services are seriously affected by the magnetic storm ex perienced here soon after noon to-day. The under ground wires suffered more than the overhead wires, the telephone system being little affected. The last occasion on which the wires were similarly put out of working order here was six years ago. The trouble is attributed by cable experts to the aurora borcalis. WORLDS GOLD OUTPUT. New Director of the Mint Expected to Report a Continued Increase. [From The Tribune Rureau.) Washington. Sept. 26.— One of the first dutieF in cumbent on the new Director of the Mint, Professor Andrew, of Harvard, will be the issue of the annual statement on th* worlds production of gold during the luxt year. It is expected that the report this fall will show continued increai«« in the world's production as well as in the production of silver. This increase will not be due. however, to the American mines, for it is believed ny experts here that the production in the United States as well as in Alaska will show a decrease. In ISO" the world's production amounted to $410.- KUH. This was an Increase of $8,990,080 beyond the preceding year. For 1908 there will probably be an equally large increase. The enormous development in the South African fields will account for the greater portion of this increase, due mainly to the vigorous exploitation of South African mining prop erties. On the other hand, Australia Is declining in the amount of gold output. Mexico is showing a tendency toward Increased production, and the forthcoming figures will show an appreciable ad vance. But the part of the world to which experts are looking for heavy production In the future is Cen tral America and South America, while the Siberian field Is alto thought to offer vast possibilities. Unless the Nevada fields, which have not yet made returns, come forward with unexpectedly heavy productions, the United States will be shown to have decreased Its output In the forthcoming figures. Alaska Is not holding Its own, while the California and Colorado gold fields are also decreas ing their production. The production for the United States In 1907, amounting to $90,000,000. was a de crease of about $4,000,000 from the preceding year. This decrease was the flrot halt of any Importance in the remarkable growth of the annual yield of the United States since 1883. The decrease was due at that time to the falling off in the yields of Alaska, California. Colorado. Montana and South Dakota and the Indications are that the rear 1908 will prove somewhat similar. The declines shown In the various field of this country in 1907 were In part made up by an Increase Of about $6,000,000 In Nevada. It Is not expected that these conditions wfi' be repeated this year, and a larger decline Is looked for in this country, the Nome field. In Alaska, alone showing a de. line of more than $1,000,000. upline oi FOUND FOSSIL SEA BEACH. It Is in the Canadian Rockies and Forms a Bed of White Quartz Pebble 300 Feet in Thickness.

[From The Tribune Bureau.] Washington, Sept. 25. — Dick J. Crosby, specialist In agricultural education in the Department of Agrl cultun?. has just concluded his study of the advance of agricultural education In the United States in the last eleven years. He is convinced that no na tion has ever made such progress, and tn a report to the Secretary of Agriculture, he says: "The progresH made in agricultural education in thr I'nlted States during the last eleven years us a result of popular demand, stimulated by the work of the state agricultural colleges and experiment stations and of this department, is unprecedented in th<- history of the world. In 1597. when the pres .nt administration of this department began, all but one of the land grant colleges were in running order and doing excellent work, but their total In come was only %h. 000,000; to-day it Is $18,000,000. Tho property of these institutions was then valued at $51,000,000; now It Is $106,000,000. Then there were less than four thousand students in agricult ural courses: now there are over fourteen thousand. Ninety of the graduates of these courses ir. Y.^l accepted positions in the agricultural colleges and < xp. riment stations, or in this department, at sal :.ri. s ranging from $500 to $1,700. and averaging $<M>> 91 It is stated by presidents of the agricultural and mechanical colleges that of late the graduates of agricultural courses fln>l remunerative employ ment much more readily tlian the graduates from engineering courses. ■'But the most rapid progress has been made in the field f>f secondary and elementary education in agriculture. In 1597 Minnesota had the only Ptate agricultural high school, and Alabama had just made provision for the last of Its nine district agri cultural .schools. The teaching of agriculture in the i>ut>ll<- elementary schools was scarcely thought of. To-day there are fifteen agricultural high schools of the Minnesota type and forty other agri cultural hi«h schools receiving state aid. sixteen privately endowed colleges and higTi schools giving Instruction in agriculture, 115 state and county nor mal schools preparing young people to tc-ach agri culture, and, on our lists, over two hundred and fifty public and private high schools and academies giving some instruction in agriculture. There are sixteen Institutions offering correspondence and reading courses In agriculture, and twenty-six pri vate or special elementary agricultural schools. "The National Education Association has organ ized a department of rural and agricultural edu cation, and has a standing committee Investigat ing the desirability and feasibility of teaching ag riculture in rural schools. The constitution of the new State of Oklahoma requires the. teaching of agriculture In all its public schools, and the Leg islature of the state has provided for four state normal schools, with departments of agriculture, and an agricultural high school in each judicial dis trict of the state. The legislature of Virginia has appropriated $a'.ooo for instruction In agriculture, home economics and mechanic arts In ten district agricultural hit-'!i schools, and Michigan and Mis sissippi have made provisions for county agri cultural high schools. "In thirteen .states tho teaching of agriculture in the rural schools Is now required by law. It Is encouraged by state and county school office: s. and taught in some of tho rural schools of thirty one other statf-s and territories. Forty-four slates and outlyiiiK possessions, then, are making some effort to teach th^lr youth the underlying princi ples of our greatest productive lndustiy. "Partly as .1 result of this remarkable growth of sentiment In favor of secondary and elementary in struction In agriculture In public schools, and partly In response to tii<- stimulus given by the Ntlson amendment allowing the land grant col leges to devote a part of tix-ir increased federal aid to "the special preparation of Instructors for teaching the elements oi agriculture and the me chanic arts," a'nout half of these Institutions now offer training courses for teachers of agriculture, ranging from suiuhut courses of a few weeks to rr^uiar four-year courses, with additional grad uate work. "Thin department Iris aided materially 111 pro moting the rapid development of agricultural ••dii catlou in the different states and territories. In this work the department haa been represented pri marily t>y the office of ex|>eriment stations, but fill of the other bureaua and divisions have aided In the work through their Investigations and through active co-operation with the educational ogencles In tli«- different states and territories.

[From Th« Tribune Bureau.] Washington, Sept. 25.— Recent discussions regard ing the apparent decltne in the exportation of food stuffs from the United States and the Increasing share of its foodstuffs required by its own popula tion lend Interest to a statement just prepared by the Bureau of Statistics of the Department of Com merce and Labor, showing the share of the wheat mil corn crops exported and retained for consump tion, respectively, and the quantity of meats and food animals exported during a term of years, the record having been brought down to »ho end of the fiscal year 1909. These figures of the Bureau of Statistics moke it apparent that the abate exported ••( the .« h.-at and coin crops of the United States has been material ly leas since 1903 than at any time during the twenty years immediately preceding that date' In the twenty-year period from 1883 to*»ta the share of the wheat crop exported ranged from 40 per cent downward, on only two occasions falling below ■* per cent. In 1904, however, the share -f the wheat crop exported was only 19 per cent; In 19U5. 8 per cent; In 1906, 14 per cent, In I*) 7. 20 per cent, and In 1999, 17 per cent, these figures showing in each case the percentage which the exports of the ffcjca] year bore to the crop of the calendar year Imme diately preceding. The ngurea of I&U9 show 114 ou - 000 bushels of wheat. Including flour in terms of Wheat, exported In the fiscal year (ended June 30). and this exportation in th« twelve months end*) June 30 Is compared with the crop of the calendar year 1908. As to the production itself, the rtgures utilized by the bureau (those of the Department of Agriculture) indicate that there is no material de cline In quantity produced, but that the decrease In exportation is apparently due to the fact that con sumption is growing more rapidly than production The crop of 1303 Is given at 665.000.000 bushels and has been exceeded on only live occasions in the history of the country, while the exportation In the fiscal year following the production of this 000- J*X> bushels »aa only U4.000.000 bushels, a figure less than in any year from IS9I to the present time with the exceptions of 1905 end 1906 Corn exportation* also show a like falling off and a like reduction In the share which they form of the total crop The percentage of the corn crop aent out of the country i. always much less than r*,h Ot J^' th * bl " ° f the *""-«" corn crop of the United States being transformed into meats before exportation. i n 1898 .
