Lord Kelvin, who died Tuesday at Glasgow, has been regarded as the world's most distinguished scientist for forty years. Although matter la many department of physics and ohemlstry, his uccssca id telegraphy, eartlcularly marine or cable telegra Jhy. probably have brought him the greatest renown. - ' lard Kelvin's name forever will be linked with the laying of the Atlantic cables, not only the original cables, but several others which were sunk during the ten or fifteen yeara follow-, ing the initial experiment . When the problem of oceas telegraphy was first presented to the world there were few Scientist who looked upon .It as eoiv. able. - Most of them, indeed, scoffed at tho idea and aald it was visionary. Lord Kelvin was -then rw MR. was at that time plain t V l Ham rM..n . w m bora In Belfast, Ireland, in 183, and in tho discussion about connecting . tno two continents with a metal wire was Hottest, he was only It years of age.- - But young Hhomson's training had fitted him well for tha work that was ' ahead of him.- As early as 184J he had published important papers on heat electricity-end mathematics. In 11 4 he was elected professor ot na tural philosophy in the. University of Gkugow. ! Thomson, later known as lord Kelvin, was then only S 1 years old and was hailed as the most pre cious and promising savant of the '" dev. '..''"-s ? us'' 'V'''" "v The aynamicai laeoij ui uc entraged the attention of, Thomson, and in the lat40a and early '80s he wrote freely about it In UH he 1 published a paper on "Electro-dynamic Qualities of, Metal,, and It was ' while engaged In experimental work in this field that he was brought face to face with the mysteries oi commu alcatton by electric wires. ; i ; . There was no scientist capable or mastering this problem, or, at least, none had the courage to announce himself until the young Irishman, who - always, by the way has been falmed ; by the Scotch, modestly stepped for- wara ana asreeu w uji ' various instruments which the direct ors of the Atlantic Cable Company : persuaded him to patent This Thom son did against his wilL , "I would prefer," he said, "that the world should reap the benefit ot these "little instruments without any bar or hindrance. On the advice of bis friends, how ha secured the necessary patents. among which was one lor the mirror calvanometer.i first used in connecUon with the 1SSS cable, t in 1867 the si phon recorder was invented and pat ented. ft 0n; the successful completion of the Atlantic caisie . .unorason was knighted.

Defender of Port Arthur Accuse I of Showlnsr Vhlto Feather on Tvo Different Occasions -General Kuro ' patkln on Stand-Stocscl Iloaded feuff in Dash For Shelter. St Petersburg, Dec 1J. Lieuten ant General gtoessel was accused to day of having "shown the : white feather under'' fire on two different occasions. The accusation was made by Colonel, Gurko,;who was on .the stand as a witness before the, court martial which -is trying the general for his alleged failure in the proper defense ot Port'' Arthur. At the mo ment the court waa Investigating; the circumstances of General , Kuropat kin's order dated June 18th, 1904, in which General . Stoessel was ' told, to turn over the command of the fort ress to General Smirnoff and join tha Manchurlan r army. General Stoessef disregarded this order, and it was repeated three times, ,, He suppressed the copy of the order ad dressed to , General Smirnoff , and finally was allowed to remain arl Port Arthur. - - General Kuropatkla testified ' that early in May doubts had arisen as to the fitness of General Stoessel to command the fortress owtng to his nervousness. . This Idea was strength ened by a communication sent by General Smirnoff to hie aide. Colonel Gurko. that Stoessel was a coward and apt to lose, his head during , an assault and that it might be neces sary to place ' htm under arrest - to prevent the- fall of , the - fortress. General Kuropatkln. after i obtaining confirmatory details of this state ment from Colonel Gurko, issued the order superseding General Stoessel. - Answering General StoesseJ's query as to what grounds he had f6r mak ing such 1 a - statement to General Kuropatkln, Colonel Gurko related two instances " In which vi General Stoessel bad ordered 'his staff r to scatter under fire, himself leading the dash for shelter.' ' -: Colonel Golovan, . who waa In charge of the coding of messages to Port Arthur established the receipt by General Stoessel of General Kuro patkln's orders. He said he gave the order for General Smirnoff to assume command of the fortress to General Relsa - who after- confeming - with General Stoessel, directed him to re move the copy from tha filev and suppress tha 'record thereof.?; Kg? .
