a NOVEL THEORY.
Prospects of Discovery that will
Revoiutionize Motors.

PITTsBURG, Pa, Oct. 25-Chambers Mil
Ter of Sewickley, believes that natural gas
is confiqed in the earth in a fluid state; and
has just filed a caveat for patent which is
designed to conduct this fluid to the surface
and into receptacles for its preservation. If
the greatest discovery of the age, as the flu
id brought to the surface and confined at the
pressure of, say 600 pounds to the square
inch, could be utilized to an inconceivable
extent. A locomotive, for instance,
with few gallons of fluid would have a sup
ply of fuel sufficient to run from Pittsburg
to Chicago, and an ocean steamer would re-
quire only few barrels to make a trip to
Europe. The test of the theory will in all
PROBABILITY be made at an early day.

LABOR TROUBLES.
The Maine ship Carpenters In De-
troit.

New YORK, Oct. 25.-The World of this
morning has a special from Detroit, Mich,
which says that when the eight hour move
ment was at its height last May, the en-
ployes. Of the Detroit Dry Dock Company,
controlling three ship yards in Wayne coun-
ty, struck for shorter day. A compromise
was affected, but frequently since then the
company has had differences with its men,
the chief point of complaint on the part of
the employers being that the men had driven
work to other Michigan yards, where wages
were lower.
A week ago ship carpenters were taken
from Maine. They were promised the high
est wages and it was claimed on the part Of
the company that the reason for the attempt
to change their w0rkmen was the fact that
the Maine ship carpenters were able to do
about one-ifth more work per day than the
Detroit men.
Last Friday the Knights of Labor, to
which both the Detroit and Maine ship car
penters belong paid the Maine men, $1,000 to
leave the county. Learning this the Detroit
dry dock company sub-let 100000 of work,
all it had on hand, to r. w. Lynn of Gibral-
ter, Wayne county, and has practically gone
out OF business, keeping open only the iron
snip yard at Wyandotte, to finish work on
hand which no other company in Michigan
has the plant to do.
Dry Dock Company officials say that the
work they lost, previous to the closing of the
other two docks because of a discrimination
against them in matter of wages, would
have amounted to $4,000. About 800 men
are thrown out Of work by the closing of the
wards
