New Mode of Engraving.

A French scientist has lately intro
signs on wood, leather or similar ma
terials by means of pencil or tool, the
point of which is constantly at red heat.
After a series of experiments with hot
irons ard platinum wire heated by cleo
tricity, special tool was finally devised
by the inventor of this process. which
renders the opera ton extremely simple.
The tool in question is another applica-
ton of the cautery instrument used by
surgeons. The pencil has wooden han
die upon which is mounted small plat
mum tube with fine point. Two sepa-
rate receptacleS communicate with the
tool by means of a rubber tube; one of
these contains hydro-carbon, such as
alcohol, benzine or wood spirit, and the
other contains compressed air.
A constant flow of the hydro-carbon
vapor is maintained at the point of the
tool, which is thereby kept in state OF
intense heat. Both receptacles are pro-
vided with regulating apparatus, by
which the supply of ink can be adjusted
or cut off, as desired. The operation OF
tracing designs on wood work and leather
is thus simplifed to the utmost possible
extent. A tracing of the design is made
on the article to be ornamented, and any
degree of relief is instantly effected, very
little skill on the part of the operator
being required. The new process will be
of the greatest service to bookbinders
carpenters and others, as well as afford
ing ready means of labelling cases
barrels, etc.-New York Commercial Ad.

Cheap mckinley Stockings.

Protectionist papers have been saying
that the talk about Mckinley prices"
has ceased. They pretend that the whole
thing never did have any truth in it, and
was only scare of the "free trade or
gans" to catch votes last fall.
Some of these papers have taken the
trouble to prepare lists of articles in
which prices are the same as last year or
lower. This was of course easy to do, as
the Mckinley law did not raise duties on
everything, and where it did raise them
on articles like farm products such in
crease could have no effect whatever in
raising prices; but these protection jour
mails make very long leap at conclu-
sion when they claim CD the strength of
these lists that no prices have advanced.
One thing that lends color to their
claim is that some prices that were at
first advanced by the Mckinley law have
again fallen to the old figure But how
has this been brought about? A protec-
ZIONIST trade journal of high standing has
given the answer to this question. This
is The New York Dry Goods Economist,
which saws:
1.-The effect of the new tariff has been
to bring into the market several novel
ties that give the effect of value without
an actual expenditure of cost in the
manufacture. So in imported hosiery
we still have what is known in the trade
as the twenty-five cent stocking but in
quality and workmanship it is slightly
inferior. 1t has been adroitly cheap
ened. The customer gets the artic1a OF
the old price, but it is not as good, and
no advertising lies can make it as good"
And so McKinley's cheapness in this
case means debasing the quality. Cheap
and nasty go together"

If the cotton growers of the south were
protectionists, and if they believed that
duty on raw cotton could help them,
they would soon be rushing to congress
to beg for protection from the cheap
pauper grown cotton of Egypt. A cargo
of 2,15o bales of Egyptian cotton worth
$780, 200 was recently landed at New
York. When Mckinley was fooling the
farmers he forgot the cotton growers.

SARATOGA, n. Y, September IA
This morning the main streets and the

est. The Tammany braves are now on
the march, and the other New York
and Brooklyn delegations are expected
to swell the crowd OF politicians TO
about 5000. The rink at which the
convention will be held has a capacity
of about $500. There will be $500
there, though the convention
numbers only 3s4. States are made and
broken with persistent regularity, but
Roswell P. Flowers name Is most prom,
inent for the head of the ticket. Still
ouinions that he will receive the nom
ination appear to be fastened to string
so that they may be drawn back quick

scouts the idea, there seems TO
be a feeling that he might ac-
cent the nomination himself II

NAV form a combination somewhere and
complicate matters In such an event
there would undoubtedly be stampede:
"When the convention stampedes," said
one of the most prominent politicians
in the State this morning, sit will be
for David &. HILL" For Lleutenant
Governor the same authority said there
was no doubt that William f. Sheehan
would receive the nomination, although
the same interests which oppose Flower
are also against Sheehan.
Senator Donald McNaughton, OF 10,
chester, is also prominently mentioned
for second place on the ticket, and is
sRjd to be favored by the Hill faction
Simon w. R. Rosendale, OF Albany

Total. ,696, 900. coo

The above figures are very Signif-
cant. They prove that it does not mat
ter how large the crop is, but what he
gets for il; for while the crops during
the first four years in the above table
exceed by 200, ,000,000 bushels the other
years, the farmer gets S400, 900, 600 less
for them. Therefore, look with suSpi-
cion on the newspaper articles congrat-
ulating about immense crops and those
who inspire them.
The circular then goes on to show
that according to the Congress of grain
dealers at Vienna, Austria, last week,
Europe raises two hundred and fifty
eight million bushels of wheat Last
wear it consumed all of its own wheat
crop, and at least fifty million
of reserves, one hundred million
bushels imported from America, all that
other countries supply, and all its rye
crop. This year il will have from
America 100, 100000 bushels more than
last. If we take the extreme figures
which any reputable authority has made
for our really splendid crop, this
extra supply from America is to make
up deficiency of 79S,000 bushels, and
consequently they must eat 67s,000
bushels less grain. 1t being admit
ted that the shortage in Europe
is the worse ever known, the Euro
peans would naturally expect high
prices. III 1867 and 1868 the average
price was 81 95, and prices went up TO
s.. .21, equal to more than 81 in Chicago.
The shortage in Europe being four
times as large as the American surplus,
there is no doubt that the price of
wheat will reach the highest figure ever
known before this year is up, and will
exceed it by far before the new crops
come in,

auditing committee of Allegheny Coun-
Gil, appointed to audit the books Of
David Hastings, market clerk, re-
ported tonight that shortage
OF $50, ,647 in his accounts had been

suit for the recovery Of the money be
entered against his bondsmen. The
charge Of perjury will be made on the
grounds that Mr.. Hastings swore falsely

THE "HoLD UP" MESSAGE
From the Farmers Alliance Organ-The
Wheat Supply.


ST. PAUL, MINI, September IA
George NJ. Mully, editor OF the State,
the Alliance newspaper organ in the
Northwest, from whose Office the now
famous wheat circular advising farmers
to hold back their grain for an advance
in prices, has issued second circular
following up the suggestions OF the
first with figures and arguments In
support of the proposition that wheat
Is bound to advance to S1.50 or 81 and
farmers should profit by it. One mil
lion copies of this circular are being
mailed.
The circular opens with the statement
that the farmers will be saved millions
of dollars If the advice given in the
document is followed. Alliance secre-
taries are instructed to give the circular
as wide distribution as pos
sible, while newspapers are re-
quested to publish the same. Con-
tinuing the circular says: The farmer
needs honest advisers who understand
the situation, because he has too many
of the other kind just now, and 1t Is
high time that he learned to discriml-
nate among counselors. There are IN
the first line the elevator men and the
millers, the grain dealers, SPECTATORS,
and large commission firms, and those
newspaper meE who SO to them for In
! formation about the conditions or the
market and lay it as valuable truth be-
fore the public.
Two months ago, all Of these advisers
predicted low prices on account OF enor-
nous crops in the United States, ana
| advised the farmers to sell as soon as
! they had chance. II at that time
these advisers did not tell the farmer
that the condition of the European
crops were such that during this crop
wear wheat must inevitably reach the
highest price ever obtained, they were
either very ignorant men, or they were
knaves who wanted to benefit them
selves by spreading lies. or suppresslne
the truth. In either case they were un'
fit counselors, and as two months have
not likely changed their intelligence OF
honesty the farmer had better beware
Of them.
They, OF course, admit now when thu
question has been thoroughly ventilated
that an immense shortage exists II
Europe which no surplus OF this coun
try can Offset; but still they try to temp
the farmers into sacrificing their crop
by different tricks. The press, for IN
stance, is literally overhowing with arti
cles congratulating farmers on the i'm
mense crop raised. These newspape
articles are at least suspicious, for w
hope that few newspaper men are s.
ignorant that they don't know that
large crop of itself is no ground for con
graduation to the farmer. The farr
value of the crop does not depend o.
its size, as the following official ngure
