ANOTHER BOAT RACE ON THE POTOMAC.
John Kennedy, the oarsman, says he
may give Hanlan another chance to down
him in the fall. Kennedy's hackers are in
no wise discouraged at the result of the
recent race and are willing to back him for
other any time. Although Kennedy
says nothing rejecting upon the manage
ment of the race, his friends claim the
guiding of Hanlan from the referees boat

rowing on an open sea, he profted won

other race between these oarsmen will be

nent against the property of Albert Weber,
piano manufacturer, on the application of
EdiIburt Gire, who claims that Weber con-
vsrted to his use $4,000 which he placed
in his hands in January last. On one &C.
casion he states in the affidavit that Weber
gave him a draft of $4,000 on San
Francisco firm which proved to be worth
less. Yesterday it was further sworn that
he had a conversation with Weber in which
the latter acknowledged he had recently
lost $4,000 in stock speculations and was
insolvent. Gire charges Weber in his affis

ments falling off of 347,145 head, while
the average gross weight for the last three
months shows gain of LAO lbs. per hog
and the packing is 10000 head short.
There has rarely been time in the histo-
ry of the trade when there was such a gen
eral uncertainty as to the possible current
of trade ar prices in the near future. The

thereby secure a much better price than if
they sent the grain to market.
As is usual during periods
Of depression, operators are very wary.
The trade at this point is believer in the
future of the market, and therefore DO not
remain on the short side for any length
Of time. A noticeable feature and pecu-
liarity Of speculative trading is found in
the fact that good many who were buy
ers OF product at considerable higher
prices and bulls are now sellers and bears
il the face of very liberal shrinkage in
values, and it is quite likely if the market
should break considerably lower, there
would be I o more bears than there now
are. 1t is the current of the trade. Conser-
vative men. however, can see that the re-
cent severe drop was due largely to man
ipulation. The crowd became imbued
with the idea that prominent specula-
tors were under the market, and tailed
on, and the shaking out
process was necessarily applied
IN order to induce trade. Those
who profess to believe the product is GO
ing down to almost nothing may find
themselves in error. They certainly will
if consumers come in with any degree of
alacrity, simply because we are producing
less and have no excess of stocks, and
those closely allied with the consumptive
trade live in anticipation that before long
there will be a marked improvement in
this particular. The conditions OF pro-
duction and supply when compared with
last year argue good prices for product,
providing, of course, the consumption is
equal. The latter is all that is now nee
cessary to turn the current of prices TO-
ward higher plane. If the consumer
continues to hold back, however then
much higher prices are doubtful.

Usss Of Paper Pulp.
Scientific American.

Under the generic term ofpaper, other
substances used in combination witt,
paper pulp are comprehended in general
descriptions and occasional notices.
When some wonderful story is read Of
the substitution of paper for wood, stone,
the metals. for mortar, and plaster, and
concrete, and other compositions, the
reader should not understand that il is
the material defined by Webster "a "a
substance formed into thin sheets or
leaves, made Of pulp obtained from rags.
straw, bark, or like materials, pressed and
dried" Paper, for so many and differ
ing uses as are attributed TO it, must have
something else besides a vegetable pulp
in its composition. In fact. the term
paper" is misnomer for products that
derive all their special qualities from
foreign materials, held together by the
paper pulp acting as a maxim. Thus,
asbestoes, in filaments or powder, may
be mixed with paper pulp to form con-
vcnient uninilammable and possibly an
incombustible material, shaped while
plastic TO convenience for special uses.
So, clays in almost impalpable dust may
become part Of the paper pulp product
ion, and is substitute for other mater
ials. Other mineral substances may be
mixed with the pulp, and, in short, there
appears to be scarcely any limit to the
uses that may be made of paper pulp
mixed with foreign substances, moulded
and pressed to form. -
