are more mcunes ana ais
among scientific men
putes
with regara 10 me interior
i)f .the earth than about any othef
problem of physical science. Some
eminent physicists, for instance, like
sir William Thompson, have bef
if
ieved that the crust of tne earth is
at least 100 miles thick. 1 he ma-
ority addnce good reasons tor bef-
levin? that the crust is only twenty
five to fifty miles thick. All agree
that the temperature within the
earth continues to increase as it does
near the surface at the rate of one
degree Fahrenheit for about every
fifty-five teet of descent. All igneous
rocks must pe 1 used at no great
depth." 'Hi' v
In fact, at this rate ot increase the
temperature at 5500 miles is 28,000
degrees Fahrenheit, which is Prof.
Roseiti's estimate of the probable
temperature of, the sun. It' is inv
probable, however, that this rate of
increase is maintained for a great
Oistaace, and . many physicists be-
ieve that ait sonie unknown but not

I wonderful things in . the study of
science is the fact that the mysr
tenes of ode' science are sometimes
completely or partly explained by
knowledge! gleaned in some other
department of study. It is thus that
the naturalists who have investigated
the fauna and flora of scores of Par
cific islands have learned how fajr

added great weight to the conclu

PANAMA HATS.
They Are Uanufacturned Every Tear to
the Extqnt of 200,000 Dosen. '
Panama hats are so named from
the circumstance of their being ship
ped from; the port of Panama, says
the Galveston, Globe. They are
manufactured in Ecuador and the
neighboring- States. The material
used is the fiber of the leaf of the
screw pine, which is related to the
palms. It grows only on the slopes
ot tne Andes, tne leaves are oa
slender stems that spring from the
ground. They are about two-feet
long, fan-shaped, and four-parted.
Each of the segments is ten-cleft,
so that when the leaf is folded, "as
in the bud, there are eighty . layers.
I he fibers of these leaves are
finely plaited, and each hat consists
of ; a single : piece of work. The
plaiting of the hats is of a slow and
tiresome process. Coarse hats may
be finished in two or three days, but
the fine ones takes as many months.
The wdrk is begun at the crown and
finished at the brim. The bat is
made on a block, which is placed on
the knees, and has to be constantly
pressed with the breast, j
About 200,000 dozens of these
hats are made every year. The
price vanes' according to the firm
ness of the material and the quality
of the work. They are valued at
from $5 to $100. .
Panama hats are much prized for
wear m the tropics, because of their
lightness and flexibility. They may
be rolled up and put Into the pocket
without -injury. In the rainy season
they are apt to get black, but 4by
washing them with soap and water,
treating them with lime juice or any
similar acid, and exposing them to
the sun their whiteness is easily re
stored. 1
In Australia there is manufactured
a hat which is said to resemble the
Panama hat very closely. It is
made'from the unexpanded leaves
of a native plant, which are im
mersed in boiling water and then
dried. The fiber obtained by this
treatment is plaited as in South
America.
Under the name of "chattahs a
kind of umbrella hat or sunshade is
made in India of the leaves of a
palm or of the plalntain leaf. Chat
tahs; are worn by the plowmen, cow-
keepers and coolies of Bengal and
Assam. " . : .

SERIOUS AND PERHAPS THREATENING
ASPECT OF AFFAIRS
President Harrison; in Consnltation With
Bepresentatiyeif th.e Btte andTlffavy
Departmentft-Beported Arrest of Citt
ens of the TCfnited Btates in Santiago. .c.
By Teletiapa to the Monjing Stat, r
Washington, Sept. 28. For " two
hours this morning the President was in
consultation with representatives of the
iauttc ina wavy departments. ; Secre
tary Tracy, who arrived in1 Washington
last night, nearly a week before the date
fixed for; his return from the North,
came to the White House early in the
day. He was joined there by acting
becretary Wharton of the Department
of State and General John W. Foster,
and later by Commodore Ramsey, chief
of the Navigation Bureau, who had been
summoned for the purpose.
While no official information upon
the subject caw be obtaibed. there is
reason to believe that the administra--
tion is confronted with a serious and
perhaps threatening aspect of affairs in
Chili. Since last Friday cablegrams
couched in -cypher have been passing
between Washington and ValDaraiso.
Officials of the State and Navy Depart
ments through whose hands these cable
grams have passed, refuse Ito make their
contents public. 1 It is gathered,- how
ever, that they relate to affairs in Chili.
and that serious " complications have
arisen between the Junta and the United
states representatives in (that country.
At present the United States naval force
in Chili Consists of one vessel, the cruiser
Baltimore, commanded by Captain
Schley. - - . f . ;
The San Francisco touched at Callao,
Peru, last week, on her way northward,
with Admiral Brown in command. An
effort was made bv the Naw Denart-
ment to communicate witb her, but she
sailed for Acapulco, Mexico, Friday be
fore the cablegram reached her. Her
bottom is very . foul, anid . the vessel
would be almost unserviceable 'unless
docked and cleaned. There are no
other modern vessels on the Pacific
side that could be dispatcned to Chili,
and it is assumed thatj Commodore
Ramsay was called into consultation by
the President for the purpose of ex
plaining the exact exteitt of the re
sources of the Navy Department.
Secretary Tracy, while declining to
make any statement relative to the con
ference at the White House this morn
ing, said that he, did not iptend to send
any more, ships to Chili, aijd that he did
not regard the situation there ' as
threatening. ' ;.-' ,'. -'"'i .'
In response to an inquiry as to the re
port that a revolt had broken out among
the troops at Santiago. Senor Moutt,
Chilian Congressional entoy at Wash
ington, has received a dispatch from
Senor Matta, Minister of Foreign Affairs,
saying that the peace has not been, nor
shall it be disturbed; least all by mili
tary revolt, Senor Moutt L has also re
ceived a dispatch confirming the pub
lished -reports of the appointment of
Senor Manual Matta as Minister of For
eign Affairs, and Senor Augustin Ed
wards as Minister ; of Industries and
Public Works.
. ? Senor Moutt has not ijeceived any
thing Irom Chili relative to, the reported
arrest of thre American! citizens : at
Santiago and the stationiugj of a force of
police outside of the American Lega
tion there. j :
- It is coujectured herethajt matters un
der consideration at the conference were
statements from Minister Egan, and
Capt. Schley, of recent occurrences in
Chili, which are also conjectured to ac
cord with a special dispatch from Val
paraiso printed in the Newf York Her
ald this morning. In brief this dispatch
was to the effect ' that three United
States citizens had been arbitrarily ar
rested in Santiago by ordek pt the Jun
ta; that a cordon of police had been post
ed around the United Stakes Legation
building; that access to the Legation
had been controlled by thje Junta, and
finally, that the United States Minister
to Chin was being narrassed and an
noyed in his efforts to care! for Ameri
can interests. -
Just what Capt. Schley had to com
municate to the Navy Department" can
not be learned from any of the officers,
but it is assumed that it related to the
treatment of refugees, or that little
anti-American sentiment in Chili result
ing trom the seizure oi tne Itata nas,rej
vealed itself in hostile or unfriendly I
demonstrations towards the officers and
men of the Baltimore. However this
may be it is certain the officials of the
State and Navy Departments are not
alarmed at the situation anil if the con
ference was called to devise means of
meeting any emergency it I is apparent
that the persons who participated are
satisfied that this has been done.
Washington, Sept. 29.-j-Apparently
the situation in Chili continues to en
gross the attention of the President and
Department of State. Acting Secretary
Wharton called at; the wlhite House
soon after breakfast this morning and
remained with the President until the
Cabinet met, about 11 o'clock. Return
ing to the Department of State be found

srxnse to one sent to him yesterday.
asking for further information as to the
situation in ' Santiago. This dispatch
was in cypher, and . after it had been
translated, Wharton and John . W. Fos
ter discussed its contents, irhich, how
ever, they did not feel at liberty to make
Dubhc : '
It is known that the acute phase of
the situation has been passed and no
serious trouble is anticipatedj.1. Minister
Egan has maintained the dignity of ; his
Legation : and refugees renpain under
protection. But it is believejd that this
has been, achieved through the action of
the Junta in yielding, under protest, to
the pressure brought to bear by this
Government; while insisting upon its
right to arrest political - refugees, it not
actually within the precincts of the
Legation at least in its shadow. '
: The contention revives an old and
vexed question of international law,
which ot itself is by no means an exact
science, and the President with his ad
visers is now conning precedlehts in our
diplomatic history,, resolved that Minis

theity of "Guatemala on; the morning
of the 16th inst, and who has-just
reached this city on horseback from the
Mexican port of Acanulco. . brines in
formation that the -outbreak occurred
in Guatemala city on the 15th inst.. and
was still in progress when' he left.Ac-
cording to his story, the people of that
city were celebrating the anniversary of
their national - holiday. . j It aDnears
President Barillas had personally ap-.
pointed orators of the day..-To this
the masses took exception, and when
the orators took the rostrum it was the
signal for a storm of stones which set
them to flight, . they being "chased
around the big plaza bv a howling
mob which shouted at the too of
their voices; "Down with the governr
mentl" ''Down 'with despotism ; and
tyranny!"Die Barillas!" Exciting scenes,
followed, and every known - Liberal, or
partisan was driven from the plaza, be
ing soundly stoned at every steo. ; Alter
thavthe masses elected their, orators,
and the . most violent" and incendiary
speeches followed. ' ; - ' .v
.News of the riot spread rapidly, and.
soon Barillas Hhrew a battalion of in
fantry "into the large square for the
purpose of dispersing the mob: . ; Thev,
with fixed bayonets, attempted to carry
the plaza : bv assault. ' Thev were met
with a shower ot stones and bullets
from revolvers. 'This unexpected action
oi tne moo put them to ignominious
flight, leaving many of their number on
the plaza.r The .uproar was something
to be long remembered. Members of
the mob shouted "Let's storm the na
tional palace, kill Barillas and restore a
republican form of orovernment "
"Guatemala should not be ruled bv
dictators." "Plundering of the national
treasury must cease." , ' 'v -
Barillas then ordered artillery into the
plaza, and infantry and two cannon to
guard his residence. When the guns
were turned on the . mob . there was a.
general dispersing of them, though they
discharged their revolvers at the artil
lerymen. ; Ihey left the: plaza .but
fought in the side streets; , in fact they
practically, during the night of the 15th,
held full control of the city.- though at
intervals they were attacked by infantry
wno snot many ot tnem, Keports oi re
volvers and rifles were to be heard
alt night, and .at the hour the gentleman
giving this' information left for San Jose
de Guatemala to embark for Acapulco
fighting was still in progress. - In his
conception this will cause a general re
volt throughout the entire Republic of
Guatemala, and engender war in all
of the other Central American States.
Strict censorship is maintained oyer
all press dispatches and mails are also
trilled with to pi event the leaving of
any information concerning the actual
condition of the country. It is stated
that cable communication with Guate
mala city has been interrupted.
At 5 o'clock Monday afternoon the
American received a special dispatch
from Newton on the line between
Guatemala and Mexico. The telegram
was delievered at Newton Telegraph
Office by special carriers and it brings
information that Barrillas is master of
the situation, he haying put down the
revolt after three days bard fighting. .
The arrival of troops from adjoining
districts eventually restored Barillas to
power and the city is thoroughly infest
ed with soldiers,.: It was expected whenl
Purser left the city ot Gautemala .that
Barillas would declare himself dictator
so as to prolong his termxf office.
Salvador is moving troops to the mili
tary district of Santa Anna, bordering
on the the Southern frontier of Guate
mala, and it is believed for the purpose
of invading the latter country if the
city of Guatemala, revolt spreads to in
terior points. It is said that already in
Quezaltenango, one of the most impor
tant cities . in the . upper districts of
Guatemala," revolts haye occurred
against Barillas within the last two
months, but they have proved so far
abortive.
Private despatches to ' a prominent
merchant in this city who has business
relations in the city of Guatemala, say
that fully five'hundred lives were sacri
ficed in the three days' fighting in the
revolt in the city of Guatemala and that
shooting is still going on. A dispatch
also conveys int rmation that Barillas
has declared himself Dictator. It' is
stated Col. Jabon killed Gen. Sanchez,
and it followed that the brother of Gen.
Sanchez learning of bis ' assassination
went to the place which was surrounded
by- cannon where Jabon was stationed
and shot and killed him. ' Sanchez's
brother has been executed. ; The city is
under martial law. and a reign of terror
!revails, the inhabitants being afraid to
eave their houses. -
In the revolt which has taken place at
Quezaltenango, the revolutionary leader
is reported to be supported by over 1,
000 men. The Palace and residence of
President Barillas are guarded by both
infantry and artillery. " - " (

Brussels, Sept! 30.--Gen,
comnritted suicide to-day on
Boulanger
the.; tomb
of Madame DeBonnemain who died re-"
cently in. this city.: . Madame DeBonne
main has been known as the-mistress of
the dead General. She ac jmpanied
him to". England after his - light1 from
France, and early in July ' la st she was
dangerousfy ; ill in Brussels suffering
from consumption.; i A Paris physician
went expressly in order to tre it Madame
DeBonnemain : by: the new system of
treatment, consisting in ; injnoculating I
the
person aitected with germs of
phthisis with gayacol, which is obtained
from creosote. However, in jspite ot the
ettorts made to save her, Madame De
Bonnemain died during the evening of
-Lulyl7th. :
- Madame iDe -Bonnemaiii. at the
height of General Boulangir's career,
two or three years ago, lived in the Rue
De BeerW Paris, where she was contin
ually visited - by the jGeniral.: Spies
Kept track of their movements and soon
discovered that the two; persons refer-
ted to were very intimate Madame
Boulanger .was - informed! of; these
facts, but refused to .. apply , for
divorce. ; .. It i. was ; greatly! through
Midame De Bonnemain's favor that
Gen. Boulanger was able to carry oh his
political intrigues, for the Madame had
inherited a fortune of $lJS00iO0O, all of
which sum; she devoted to tbie cause, of
the then popular leader. To such an
extent did Gen.' Boulanger carry his in
fatuation for Madame De Bonnemain
that when the French Government deter
mined to arrest him he could not be per
suaded to pose as a martyr before the
French people by going to jail, prefer
ring to fly with his mistress f 10m t ranee
to England, and eventually to Brussels,
where they have both met their death.
London, September 30.-
The Gov-
ernment has decided not to call the au
tumn session of Parliament.
' : Rome, Sept. 80. Signon Richard
Matta, a barrister, has beeni appointed
Italian Consul . at New Orleans,. La.
Signor Corte former Italian j Consul at
New Orleans, has been tratsferred to
Hawre.'. !.;';
Paris, Sept. 80.- The suicide of Bou
langer has caused an immens sensation
in this city, so much . so, that evening
papers are unable to meet the demands
made upoa them. . All the evening
papers contain obituary articlas,but none
with the exception of Le four, "reflects
upon the political aspect of the Gen
eral's life. Le Tour sayst 'IBoulanger
knew the intoxication of : the wildest
and noisest popularity. It was he who
said to politicians that the weakness of
one too often influenced the decision of
another. His own end fully justifies
that dictum- . He had not the courage
to survive her who sacrificed jher self 'for
him." .;-' r-,.-.'.-;
Members of the patriotic league are
talking of a public : funeral for the Gen
eral and they propose to inter his - re
mains m France, it is believed that
such action upon the part of he league
will lead to serious disturbances. .
. St. ; Petersburg, ; Sept.! 30. The
press censors have-stopped tne sale of
the Moscow Gazette on account of an
article accusing Vishnegradska, Minister
of Finance, of an unpatriotic lining to
wards Germany, inendeavorinb to nego
tiate a commercial treaty. V
City of Mexico, Sept. SC-s-A special
dispatch received here from Guatemala
says that everything is quiet at present
in that country. President Earrilas has
resolved that either -jGenefal " Reyna
Barrios or Senor LI Levano will be the
next President, and that he will posi
tively not be a candidate for re-election.
Paris, Septl 30.4-The Minister in this
city of the Republic of Guatemala was
interviewed to-day in regard tot reports
that a revolution occurred in that coun
try, and that in the fighting tpat follow
ed there had been great less of life. He
stated he had received no advices that
there had been any fighting, though it
is probably that had there! been any
trouble he would have been notified. He
had received telegraphic advices from
his Government sinice September 15, on
which day the - levolt is said to have
broken out, but no mention was made
in them of any facts that would in any
way justify the circulation of reports of a
revolution, i j
In connection with rumors that the
government of San Salvador had dis
patched bodies of troops. to the frontier
of Guatemala, the Minister said he was
in a position to deny that there was any
foundation for such reports. . In conclu
sion he stated that! he believed the re
ports of trouble in "j Guatemala and the
movements of Salvadoran troops to be
the invention of over-imaginative news
paper correspondents. .
COTTON FUTURES. :
The New York Futures Market Yesterday
By Telegraph to the Morning Star. V;
' . New York, Sept. 30. TheS' cot
ton circular says:. . ' U '
Futures were . vesy unsettled all day,
opening at 2 to .3 points advance and
closing at 2 to 5 .points decline from
yesterday's closing prices. As for -the
general market it was a sort of go-as-you-please
affair. A little girl asked of
a showman, "W hich is Daniel and which
is the lion?"; "Whichever you please,
my little dear; you pays your money and
takes your choice." That is our mar
ket. You may be either a bull or a
bear, and lose your money on 'either
side, but the broker gets there all the
same.l The early rise was caused by a
smart, advance in I Liverpool, but tha
.market was not sustained and we quick"
lyrsold off. Then speculation in a lead
ing bull interest-caused a fresh advance,
in which January contracts rose quickly
from 9.01c. to 9.06c. But this bulge was
like the old womans dance, soon ended.
Then prices began tp give way under bet
ter Southern weather reports, dispelling
apprehensions that ! were-felt on yester
day. Receipts at four principal interior
towns - showed up nearly double the
corresponding date! last year. ' The de
cline Was not arrested until January
contracts sold . at 1 8.95c 5 This ' price
brought in a good many buying orders,
but recovery was slight. Smaller port
receipts were explained by the strifce at
Savannah, boot cotton was l-loc dear
er, but quiet.- i : . .; k
