By making them of different kinds of metal, having different [ degrees of expansion with increase of temperature, the effect of their . changes on the running of watches may be almost entirely eliminated. But in dealing with such a problem it Is necessary to know the expansibility of the metal employed. A means of measuring it is furnished by an instrument called a dilatometer, in , which a system of delicate levers, or a chain of gear wheels, magnifies the motion of a pointer over a graduated I scale hundreds of times. At a meeting of the Physical So- | ciety in London lately a dilatometer was exhibited which had a magnification of 1,500 times, so that the change in the length of a piece of steel caused by a single degree of rise or fall of temperature was clearly measured by i".?You^i's Companion.

HE OPENS CAMPAIGN President Roosevelt Formally Notified of His Nomination ACCEPTS THE TRUST OF HIS PARTY One Hundred and Twenty-Five Persons, Including Relatives and Friends, Were Present at the Ceremony, Which Was Held on the Veranda of Sagamor# Hill. Oyster Bay, L. Special.?Theodore Roosevelt Wednesday formally ! opened the political campaign of 1904 at his beautiful country home, Sag- 1 amore Hill. Standing on a spot made dear by the associations of a life time, ' surrounded by his family and relatives i and friends, he formally received and ] accepted the nomination of the Re- 1 publican party for President of the United States. i Speaker Cannon and his committee of notification, together with many of invited guests, arrived here on a special train from New York. The attendance of the members of the committee tvas notably large, regrets being received from only three, James N. Combes, of Florida; Senator Chauncey M. Depew, of New York, and Senator Clarence N. Clark, of Wyoming. In all, about 125 persons were present at the ceremony. President Roosevelt personally received the members of the committee and other guests as they arrived at Sagamore Hill. He knew almost every man personally. After the visitors had been greeted by the President, Secretary Leob presented each one to Mrs. Roosevelt and to Miss Alice Roosevelt. The guests were seated on the veranda, where the notification ceremony was held. As Speaker Cannon, attired in a dark gray frock suit, stepped upon a chair standing near the veranda railing, he was given a cordial reception. While Mr. Cannon read his speech, President Rooosevelt stood at his right hand, giving close attention to the address. Mrs. Roosevelt, surrounded by her children, Kermit, Ethel and Quentin, 3tood facing Mr. Cannon, almost in the centre of the crowd. Mr. Cannon was Interrupted frequently by applause. He spoke as follows: nR. CANNON SPEAKS. Mr. President: The people of the L'Vited States, by blood, heredity, education and practice, are a self-governing people. We have sometimes been subject to prejudice and embarrassment from harmful conditions, but we liave outgrown prejudice and overcome conditions as rapidly as possible, having due regard to law and the rights s if individuals. We have sometimes f made mistakes, from a false sense of security or from a desire to change policies instead of letting well enough a lione, merely to see what would hap- \ pen, but we have always paid the pen- r ilty of unwise action at the ballot-box c ind endured the suffering until, under ^ :he law, through the ballot box, we E iave returned to correct policies. No lation has so successfully solved all B promems ana cnosen proper policies as r mr nation. Under the lead of the Re- v publican party for over forty years, .j he United States from being a thirdMass power among the nations has necome in every respect first. The 1 people rule. The people ruling, it is . lecessary that they should be com- * petent to rule. Competency requires 1 lot only patriotism, but material well- ? leing, education, statecraft. The people, under the lead of the Republican party, wrote upon the sta;ute books revenue laws, levying taxes lpon the products of foreign countries R seeking our markets, which replenish- '' id our treasury, but were so adjusted ll. is to encourage our people in developing. diversifying and maintaining our l\ ndustries, at the same time protectng our citizens laboring in production a igainst competition of foreign labor. s Jnder this policy our manufactured ? product today in one-third of the pro- K luct of the civilized world, and our 15 icople receive almost double the pay 0 or their labor that similar labor re- f1 :eives elsewhere in the world, there- . >y enabling us to bear the burdens of !: ritizenship. ' Mr. Cannon spoke also upon the Relublican doctrine of protection and in- J-' identally brought forward the other t( ssues ol the campaign. His speech was a leartily cheered by those present. Cl C( 'RESIDENT ROOSEVELT SPEAKS. g President Roosevelt responded in a ipeech of a little more than three thou- 1J :and words, and said in part: w dr. Speaker and Gentlemen of the j"' Notification Committee: 11 I am deeply sensible of the high hon- * >r conferred upon .me by the represenatives of the Republican party assem- ^ iled in convention, and I accept the ci icmination for the Presidency with 6 olemn realization of the obligations I ?' issume. I heartily approve the decla- tt ation of principles which the Repub- 11 ican National Convention has adopted nd at some future day I shall com- 1? nunicate to you, Mr. Chairman, more * ' t length and in detail a formal written cceptance of the nomintion. Three years ago I became President h; lecause of the death of my lamented iredecessor. I then stated that it was si uy purpose to carry out his principles i? nd policies for the honor and the in- ?>1 ere st of the country. To the best of my th bility I have kept the promise thus ?? a aade. If next November my country- J aen confirm at the polls the action of he convention you represent, I shall, inder Providence, continue to work vith eye single to the welfare of all IS ur people. ^ A jjai iy ib ui wuiiii uui) in au iai ub t promotes the national interest, aha v' very official, high or low, can serve is party best by rendering to the peo- p le the best service of which he is capa- fc<: !e. Effective government comes only J s the result of the loval co-operation 1 f many different persons. The memers of a legislative majority, the offi- CI ers in the various departments of the 10 m Administration, and the Legislative and Executive branches as towards each other, must work together with subordination of self to the common end of successful government. We who have been entrusted with power as public servants during the past seven years cf administration and legislation now come before the people content to be judged by our record of achievement. In the years that have gone by we have made the deed square with the word; and if we are continued in power we shall unswervingly follow out the great lines of public policy which the Republican party has already laid down; a nubile policy to which we are giving, and shall give, a united, and therefore an efficient, support. In all of this we are more fortunate than our opponents, who now appeal for confidence on the ground, which some express and some seek to have confidentially understood, that if triumphant they may be trusted to prove false to every principle which in the last eight years they have laid down as vital, and to leave undisturbed those very acts of the administration because of which they ask that the administration itself be driven-from power. Seemingly their present attitude as to their past record is that some of them were mistaken and others insincere. We make our appeal in a wholly different spirit. We are not constrained to keep siient 011 an/ viu&i qucsuuu, aig vided on no vital question; our policy is continuous, and is the same for all sections and localities. There Is nothing experimental about the government we ask the people to continue in power, for our performance in the past, our proved governmental efficiency, is a guarantee as to our promises for the future. Our opponents, either openly pr secretly, according to their several temperaments, now ask the people to trust their present promises in consiieration of the fact that they intend to treat their pa6t promises as null and t'oid. We know our own minds and we aave kept of the same mind for a sufIcient length of time to give to our policy coherence and canity. In such a fundamental matter as the enforcement sf the law we do not have to depend jpon promises, but merely to ask that pur record be taken as an earnest of what we shall continue to do. In dealing with the great organizations known is trusts, we do not have to explain why the laws were not enforced, but :o point out that they actually have seen enacted to increase the effectiveness of their enforcement. We do not Pave to propose to "turn th rascals put," for we have shown in very deed :hat whenever by diligent investigation i public official can be found who has petrayed his trust he will be punished :o the full extent of the law without egard to whether he was appointed inder a Republican or a Democratic idministration. This is the efficient irmjr to turn the rascals out and to keep :hem out, and it has the merit of sin ereity. Moreover the betrayals of trust n the last seven years have been insignificant in number when compared vith the extent of the public service. \Tever has the administration of the rovernment been on a cleaner and ligher level; never has the public vork of the nation been done more lonestly and efficiently. The President then discussed the isues of protection, reciprocity and our orcign policy at some length. He said further: "We earnestly desire friendship with 11 the nations of the New and Old Vorlds; and we endeavor to place our elations with them upon a basis of reiprocal advantage instead of hostility. Ve hold that the prosperity of each ation is an aid and not a hinderance o the prosperity of other nations. We eek international amity for the same casons that make us believe in peace rithin our own borders; and we seek his peace not because we are afraid or nready, but because we think that eace is right as well as advantageous. American interests in the Pacific ave rapidly grown. American enterrise has laid a cable across this, the realist of aceans. We have proved in ffective fashion that we wish the hinese Empire well and desire its in?grity and independence. Our foothold in the Philippines reatly strengthens our position in the ompetition for the trade of the East; ut we are governing the Philippines in he interest of the Philippine people hemselves. We have already given hem a large share in their government nri r>nr mirnose is to increase this hare as rapidly as they give evidence ? increasing fitness for the task. The reat-majority of the officials of the ?lands, whether elective or appointive, re already native Filipinos. We are ow providing for a legislative assemly. This is the first step to be taken i the future; and it would be eminentr unwise to declare what our next tep will be until this first step has een taken and the results are manirst. To have gone faster than we have lready gone in giving the islanders a onstantly increasing measure of selfonstantly increasing measure of self- i overnment would have been disas- ] rous. At the present moment to give i olitical independence to the islands , ould result in the immediate loss of i ivil rights, personal liberty and pub- , c order, as regards the mass of the . Ilipinos, for the majority of the is- ] mders have been given these great , oons by us, and only keep them beluse we vigilantly safeguard and < uarantee them. To withdraw our i overnment from the islands at this ( me would mean to the average native i ie loss of his barely-won civil free- ; cm. We have established in the i9mds a government by Americans as- i sted by Filipinos. We are steadily : riving to transform this into self- t overnment by the Filipinos assited i y Americans.

Russian Prime Minister Assassinated In His Carriage WAS NEXT TO THE CZAR IN POWER Bomb Thrown Under the Carriage of the Minister of the Interior in a Crowded Thoroughfare Near a Railroad Station in St Petersburg. St. Petersburg, By Cable.?M. Von Plehve, Minister of the Interior, was assassinated at 9:50 o'clock Thursday morning by a bomb thrown at his carriage while he was .driving to the Baltic station to take a train for the palace at Peterhoff, where he was to make his weekly report to the Emperor. The assassination is believed to be Via nntonma r\f a wiripsnrpad nlot. thO existence of which has been suspected for several days. Numerous arrests have been made, including that of the assassin, a young man who is believed to be a Finn named Leglo, and who is now in a hospital, severely and perhaps fatally injured by the explosion of his own bomb. An accomplice of Leglo, also apparently a Finn, but whose name is unknown, has been arrested. He had in his possession a bomb, which he tried to throw, but he was overpowered by the police just in time to prevent great loss of life. The assassin wore a brown overcoat and a railroad official's cap. He stood on the sidewalks just as Minister Von Plehve's carriage wa3 about to cross the canal bridge near the station. The minister was escorted by a number of detectives on bicycles, nnd one of them jostled the assassin, who then rushed into the road and threw the bomb after the carriage. The mlssle struck the hind wheel and exploded with fearful force, killing or wounding over a score of persons. Minister Von Pleve and his coachmen were killed outright, and an officer of the guard was fatally iujured. ASSASSIN ARRESTED. One of the cyclist detectives arrested the assassin, who endeavored to escape, though wounded by splinters in the face, arm and abdomen. He made no attempt to resistance, however, when seized by the detectives, and confessed his crime, but refused to give his name. The police, immediately after the explosion, arrested a suspicious individual who took refuge in a hotel opposite the scene of the tragedy. He carried a bomb similar to that thrown by Leglo. As soon as the police saw the bomb they scattered, but an employe of the hotel rushed up behind the accomplice and pinned his arms. The explosive is believed to have been composed of pyroxylin, as it gave off little smoke. The force of the explosion was so terrific that it not only broke every window within a radius of half a mile, but reduced the heavy paving stones to powaer, neaven up the pavement and flung a heavy piece of the iron work of the carriage ^ across the canal, severing the thick mast of a barge, which fell, stunning the captain of the barge. Everybody in the street was knocked down and more or less bruised. When the officers of the law. headed by Minister of Justice Muravieff. had terminated the necessary formalities by drawing up a written report of the crime, the mangled remains of the Minister of the Interior were conveyed to a humble chapel, adjoining the station, the windows of which miraculously escaped destruction. The priests and people, with characteristic Russian piety, at once jonied in a solemn requiem. The square in front of the station was filled with a reverent crowd of peasants and laborers, and the busy hum of traffic was silenced. A priest lifted up his voice and proclaimed "The eternal memory of the departed servarl Wenceslas," while all those in the congregation dropped to their knees. Tho infernal machine was thrown with deadly accuracy, and the assassin was favored by the fact that traffic here is always of the heaviest, owing lo the crossing of lines of surface car3 and the continuous stream of heavy trucks. M. Von Plehve was always apprehensive of attempts upon his life and used to drive as rapidly as possible. The coachman, however, was orapelled to go slowly at this point. The assassin in laying his plans evilently foresaw this circumstance and. ahile the Minister's coachman slowed iown, threw the bomb. The explosion .vas terrific and practically annihilated he woodwork of the carriage. The horses tore off. dragging the ixle and the front wheels. The aninals, though infuriated by the wounds hey had sustained, had not galloped ar before they fell, with pools of jlood under them. The Minister's servant, who was also ui the carriage box. was badly wound'd, and two officers who were driving >y in a cab were injured by flying iplinters. The assassin himself was rounded in one eye. American Retains His Job. New Chwang.
