THE SIGSBEE WATERCUP.
Its Novel Use in Research for Natural Gas
and Oil Wells,

Its Novel Use in Research for Natural Gas
and Oil Wells.
The Fuel Gas and Electric Engineering Com.
pany is now introducing Sigsbee watercup in
the searchings for natural gas and oil wells,
which is method entirely new in the investi-
cations for natural gas.
DR.. Charles A. AshDurner stated in regard to
the watercup yesterday, that he had no doubt
it would prove a valuable acquisition in re-
search for natural gas.
The Sigsbee watercup," the doctor stated,
Twas invented by Lieutenant Sigsbee to be
used in ocean researches, and it is very unique
device for obtaining water, or, for that matter,
any fluid from any depth ana examining it.
The watercup will have to be slightly modified
by us to make it applicable for our purposes;
but its results will be advantageous"
The watercup sent to the Electric Engineer
ing Company is from the well-known steamer
Jeanette. which was sent on cruise to the
North Pole and the expenses of which were
paid by James Gordon Bennett

An Oyersensitiye Pianist.

CINCINNATI. April 6.-Moriz Rosenthal, the
young pianist. who with Kreisler, the boy violin
let. was to have given a concert here last night,
and another this afternoon, left the city at 7:10
p. NJ. yesterday for Chicago, and the manage
ment was obliged to keep the doors closed last
night and notify patrons to call to-day at the
ticket-Office and get their money refunded.
There has been no official statement of the cause
of his sudden departure. His manager. Mr..
Charles 4. Pratt, when asked, this morning,
about it, was apparently disturbed, saying with
undisguised annoyance: ."Oh, l can't say any
thing about ii. He left last night for Chicago,
and that Is all I can say about it. Ihave been
bothered all night, and positively can say no
more" There are reasons for supposing that
the eccentric pianist feared to face a Cincinnati
audience, because some one had inserted an adj
vertisement in the papers here, above his adver-
tsement, quoting from an interview with him
printed in ST. Louis after his former visit here,
in which he said that Cincinnati had no proper
musical taste; that it liked noise and crash, and
would pass In silence Beethoven and Chopin.
but would applaud loudly some poor little COM
position of his own. Whatever was the cause It
seemed to have operated suddenly, as there was
no notice in the evening papers OF an intention
to drop the concerts.

Special TO the Indianapolis Journal
ANDERSON, April 6.-The anti-binder twins

against paying trust prices for binding Irvine
The meeting was well attended, and the question
of binding Irvine and how TO defeat the twine
trust was discussed. The sentiment developed
was decidedly i'm favor of binding by hand with
straw rather than pay trust prices. The res0lu-
tons adopted pledged the farmers 20 purchase
no Irvine at higher prices than last year. to use
all honorable means to prevent farmers from
using trust Irvine; that no self-binding reapers
would he purchased unless the manufacturer
agreed to fight the trust; that no merchant would
be patronized in the purchase OF any kind OF
goods who offered trust Irvine for sale at ahigher
price than offered last year. The resolutions
were adopted and the boycotta gainst trust twine
begun.
