Knoxville. Tonn.. Fell. lC-Profc.-Mir f.
K. Woodward of Knoxville lias discovered
what he claims will solve the protilem enn
frtintlne Marconi of InterminKlinir messaKes
sent by wireless telegraphy. He asserts
that he has discovered i-lectrlu-appearinc
strata In earth with different qualities ot
force. He sa:
"I Iielleve the dav is not far distant when
mcsaR'S will he conveyenl tliruuRh the
tmiiintnlns without use of wire, hut liy 'Ji
Ing the strata electricity existing In the
earth."
He holds there nre different qualities cr
natures of electricity and that he set about
to find the "vlrBlnlal" electricity, which,
he !,ivs. exists In space and is not affected
by tofitact with minerals, vegetables or ani
mal life or machines. His claim is that this
electricity, existing In the strata or the
earth with different resistance at different
depths, can be successfully used In wire
less telegraphy.
In explanation lie said that he put a
wire In the surface of the (rround and de
termined Its resistance to a inS-voltaRe
dvnnmo. He entered a rit ten feet deep,
drove a. brass rod In the earth and found
different resistance to the same voltage
and ampereagp as In the first test. At the
bottom of a thirty-foot dry well he found
still another ret-ltance to the same dy
namo. Sinking a sixteen-foot Insulated pipe
into the bottom of this well and driving a
steel rod into the earth at the bottom of
the pipe lie found another electrical con
dition These experiments showed entirely differ
ent resistances' on the surface, ton, thirty
and forty-six feet below the surface. He
believes messace.4 can lie sent through Hie
earth slmplv hy utilizing the electrical
strata already existing and attuning in
Mr.ments to these rtflstanros

ni'.I'l'UI.IC SI'KCIAI.
New Yotk, Feb. P' "all Mteet -bowed
some slight uncertainty ag?iu during the
week, which resulted in itrcsular price
chat:ges. bin the manifestations were rather
of a surface character r-na did not appear
to .xteiid very far beneath. Secuiltlcs
maintained an undertone of strength,
which, wiiile probably due to the highly
syndicated nature of the market, gave ad
ditional etidence of the strength pjid conlie
dence of the element which Is In control of
the malket. There was little, if any. on
I.iigenient uf public Inlerest or public buy
ing, and investors found little encourage
ment in some of the financial plans which
were announced In connction with street
railway enterprises.
The proposed issue of $le".K),ii bonds of
the Drooklyn Transit Company chlllod en
thusiasm, while the sharp recoverv In
Metropolitan Street Hallway could scarcely
be Interpreted as an approval of Iho much
Involved Ilnaneial plan.
If a heavy short Interest exists in Metro
politan stock, as has lietn alleged, and as
the advance in the rights on the curb on
Saturday seemed to indicate. Wall street
may see some skyrockets in that property
before it H much older. Such advances,
however, would be due to a technical stock
maiket position ill reference to the shares,
and dois not of nccs-lty mark any enthu
siastic deception of the Metroiiolitan -c-curity
company.
The Ilnaneial plan of tho Metroiiolitan
Street Itallwav will undoubtedly come In
for some very severe criticism before the
public or the company has heard the last
of the matter.
So far as tho Brooklyn Rapid Transit plan
is concerned, much remains mystery. After
the influence of the tlrst announcement
wore away Wall street says that the refund
ing proposition which was given such prom
inence in the statement would not. if all
goes wtll with the company, hs the prevent
generation ot investors. The experience
that the company hat- had with sonio of Its
recent effort? to sell bonds of subsidiary
mads does not lead to the belief that any
vry large amount of the MW.OoiWW pro
posed Issue will be Immediately sold in the.
market, though an underwriting syndicate
might asain be Induced to take some ot
them. ,
The shifting ot loans between banks and
trust companies was again chiefly respon
sible for the enormous expansion of loans In
the weekly bank statement. That the heavy
Inflation has no apparent effect on security
prices is not particularly strange In view
of the pooled, clioued and syndicated char
acter of the stock market. Despite the fact,
however, that the explanation is rational
and simple, the enormous total that the
loans have now reached can scarcely pass
without affecting the minds of conservative
persons. Although as yet It has had little
Influence on money, rates are likely to show
some influence In the very near future.
Demand sterling, however, hardened on
Saturday and tho rate for Paris checks
ugain touched the gold point, foreshadow
ing early shipments. The hUhly prosper
ous conditions of the country continue and
encouragennnt Is given by the Improvement
of Industrial conditions in Europe. The
public, however, sllll holds aloof from the
stock market. Impelled to caution, apparent
ly, by the enormous, capital creations! and
other developments in high finance.

Active competition between buyers for

steady all week at $'3.D0 per ton.
Four weeks of cold weather, during which
time fully -one-fourth of the producing

has -become almost a puzzle for buyers
to secuie the amounts ordered by the com
panies they represent, except by advancing
prices. Another wcik of cold, snould the
Edgar Zinc foinpnny conclude to take as

prices still upward. The Edgar Company's

Brocklvn leaders said to-oay that they

One ft lend of Mr. Shepaid wild that the
supposition that .Mr. Shepard wa- a can
didate for the gubernatorial nomination, or
so conoiderrd himself, "iva- miles from the
truth. Mr. Shepard's personal ambition, he
said. lits in another direction. Mr. Shepard
desires to tight the battle or hi.- party ill
Washington and to stand till- 5 ear for elec
tion to Congress.
He lives in tho Seventh Congressional Dis
trict which 1- overwhelmingly Democratic.
Whatever .Mr. Shepard may do himself, it
can b stated positively that he has uricd
upon the city leaders and thev have ap
proved of a plan to strengthen the New'
York City delegation in the House by th"
election of men particularly fitted for con
gressional work. This. It is said, will mean
an extensive change In the congressional
slate for this year.
James Shevlin said to-night concerning the
Tilden dinner:
".Mr. Nixon Is making an oxeel!e-.t im
pression. He lias come forward with the
simplicity and the thoroughness of an hon
est, 'energetic business man, and the Demo

committee from that body have been In
vestigating the situation, with a view to
urging the city Council to appropriate more
money for the detia'tment than the Comp
troller's estimate allows.
They And that the shortage of horses in
the department is very heavy, that many of
the crgine? are worn out, that the .fire boat
Geyser is in u condition that dally im
perils the crew and that the fire-alarm
system is In bad order. Mr. Teall fays
with sorrow that Chicago can no longer
boast of having the best fire protection in
the world and Hint the situation is enough
to make a citizen timid.
In 1S.U the city spent JI.25O,C0i) on Its Fire
Department. Last year it spent Jl.70O.iHX
while the Compirolier'a estimate for tho j
prest tu year is omy i.w.i-m, or icsa man

were heavily advanced at the beginning of
tlie vear on account of the great lasses of
lecent years, and a further advance will do
great injury to business mid manufactories.
