Yrour discussiop of tides in th Dispatch of the 17th encourages mo to ask the following question: Suppose the world should stop ro tating, would there be any tides ? To make my meaning plainer I remark as follows: Tim centri fugal influence of the whirling world is constantly throwing the polar waters toward the equator, and these waters toward the equa tor, and these waters constantly return hy under-currents. When these great bulks of water meet the collision must caino ri( ? or swells on the surface of I hi h-i-;us;; and perhaps these elevations hav more to do with tidal waves than has the attraction of the moon. Take the Gulf-Stream for an ex ample. After flowing many miles down the slope of the globe it turns and travels across the At lantic. May not this be owing to the great weight of the stream, en abling it to wholly resist the cer trifugal influence until it gets to Newfoundland, and tnen only to1 resist enough to flow across the Atlantic? If the earth should Ptop turning the Mississippi wonld flow northward like the Gulf-j Stream, and in a little while all J the equatoial waters would collect j at the poles, where they would stand still, with perhaps no tides. J. T. P.. If ''the world should stop rotat ing,' the moon continuing its rev olution about it, there would be two tidal waves in each lunation in all places where there are tidal waves now, provided the" condi tions of depth and surface remain ed sufficient. The moon would not cease to attract and raise the! ocean under it, but the waves would move eastward instead of westward. The centrifugal force and that of gravity combined maintain the present curves of the ocean sur face, keeping its water piled up in lower latitudes. In ail other agencies than these forces were withdrawn we think the ocean j every drop of it would in a short J time become as iixed in places as j if frozen from surface to bottom, j These two forces 'would protiuce i hydrostatic equilibrium, and no cause for change in position forj any particle of it would remain :-:: long as the two -forces were -on- i stant. 1 There would be no Gulf Stream j or any other current, nor any ten dency for the equatorial water to run down to the poles, any more than there is now a tendency for a man walking the solid ground to to go north ratherthan south. So far as we are informed, any changes in these two forces have been infinitesimal in centuries. The attraction of the sun and! moon, the unequal evaporation and precipitation, tnd especially i the prevailing winds, disturb this equilibrium, and the two forces, gravity and the centrifugal forces, are constantly endeavoring to re store it, and thus currents are pro duced. Tith regard to the Gulf stream, we quote from trie report of Lieu tenant J. E. Pillsbury, United States Navy, assistant in the United Statrs Coast and Geodetic Survey, August 30, 181)0, as a late authority of high character on this subject. "The Gulf Stream receives its water from the Atlantic partly by means of a current driven by the force of the southeast trade winds along the northeast coast of South America and partly by a current trum the northeast trade wind-." ''The water accumulated in the western Caribbean escapes into the Gulf ot Mexico, raising its surface level above that of the Atlantic.'' "Alter passing throi'gh the Florida straits this stream is joined by another to the north ward of the West India islands, whi'h, driven by the trade winds, ii movino o the westward. This is a slow current, but adds mate rially to the Gulf Stream on its way toward the northern seas." In latitude about 40 de grees north "the whole surface of the stream is slowly moving to the eastward, dnveuby the prevailing westerly winds. Approaching the shores of Europe it meets the ob struction of the Continent and es capes laterally, one branch to the southward, from the Azores to ward the coast of Africa; the oth er branch into the Arctic, where it foices a cold return surface cur rent to escape along the shores of Greenland and Labrador." A large amount of information is stil! lacking about the Gulf Stream, but th- above extracts five a good reason for its existence and are supported by actual meas urements and accested by those who have made it a study for many years. The report includes a statement of all theories on the subject, fairly stated, and is made after a 5 years' survey of the stream and its feeders, including cross sections of its bed. by frequent soundings and measurements of its currents at various depths and sundry points from a vessel at anchor in it. The fact that the tides occur at fixed and regular intervals after the moon's transit fellowing luna tion, and no other recognized pe riod of time, should be conclusive evidence that the attraction ot this satellite is the prevailing force originating them, even if it is not queried. What becomes of the disturbance which by the law of attraction should be made in the ocetin by it if it is not found in the tides ? Ek 4 Vrtc (soiimgc Iff 13. Mr. Bland expects to have a meeting of the House coinage com mittee to-morrow to see what can be done toward bringing before the House again a bill for the coinage of silver. It is not re garded as probable that the Mey ers bill for the coinage of tne seign iorage and the issue of bonds, which has the approval of Secreta ry Carlisle, will be reported by the committee. If any bill is report ed it will probably be a free coin age bill. The reporting of such a bill would, however, amount to little' more than an evidence of the determination 0f the silver men never to abandon the cause of silver, since there is no possi- bilitv of a free silver bill becom-, ing a law as long as Mr. Cleveland is in the White House. If it were possible to secure executive ap proval for a free coinage bill there would be no difficulty about pas sing it through botn houses of Congress at this session, but with the foreknowledge that it would be vetoed a large number of the sil ver sympathizers cannot be got to take any part in an attempt at such legislation. They feel that it would serve only as an irritant, of which the Democratic partv has enough already. . The disposition to light the ad ministration.which is in the hearts of most of the Democrats in Con gress, is almost entirely overcome for the time among the Southern and Western men who belong to the radical reform element of the party be their anxiety for tariff legislation. They have always beeo anxious to keep the tariff to the front, and it has been a com plaint among them that Mr. Cleveland, by bringing up the Sherman repeal bill at a time when they wanted to consider the tariir, put the silver question to the front to the exclusion of the tariff. They now want to pass a taritr bill and want to pass it quickly, therefore they are not apt lo court a fight on any ofher ques tion that might interfere with this object. If Mr. Cleveland will do what is now expected of him, use all the power i.i his command to aid in the speedy passage of the tariff bi.l, ignoring all differences of opinion between democrats on MAY. 4, 1894. other questions, it is very vident that he will greatly strengthen his position in the party,, and make some friends where he now has eneniies. There is undoubtedly a j hour, late press age lit of tin disposition growing to draw all j World's Fair, but a former plains the tariff reform forces in the par-j man. "You read in the accounts ty together, and, in working for j of the South African war where a the passage of a tariff bill, to keep hundre 1 or two Englishmen go out out of sight all differences relating! tnd whip 5000 or 10,000 black to other subjects.
