The usual method of manufacturing
block fuel or 5riquettes is to mix certain
quantity Of coal dust with pitch, to heat
the mass by steam so as to soften the pitch,
and then to mold into bricks under hy-
draulic pressure. 1t is now stated that a
better result is obtained by using sub
stances of glutinous and starchy charac-
ter, such as can be obtained from wheat,
barley or rye, and from certain vegetables
Adding about per cent. of this gluti-
nous material to coal dust, ashes, etc.,
this mass is well kneaded and can then be
formed into bricks without pressure, al
though it might be convenient in large
factories to employ molds and pressure as
usual. The briquettes made under the
new system are said to be more econom-
ical in use, and to be less smoky than those
previously made.-New York Telegram.

Saturday declared guiltless of the
death of Antonio BassO. The Jury.
after 10 minutes deliberation and one

The case was fight for blood from

Long, says the EUening Journal, as
secondary consideration. 1t was a fight
for points between the man who is
Encouragement and the man who
wanted to be attOrney-general.
BY IA singular coincidence in the
first big case in which AttOrney-gen
eral Nicholson figured, his rival for
the position, Lewis G. Vandegrift, rep
resented the defendant and won the
cas-. This coincidence was generally
noted, aud the greatest interest mani
tested. not only the laymen but by the
members of the bar. There never was
case conducted in cleaner or more
gOOd-natured manner. Both men
were of acknowledged legal ability.
and new in criminal work. They were
OF mill manners, and there was not
marsh word spoken during the trial.
Iher- was such a similarity of voice
that stranger standing in the corridor
could not tell which of them was
speaking. Taken altogether it was
trial such as never may be seen again
one in which direct evidence, circun.
stantial evidence and manly rivalry
fought to Il finish, and in which the
clear and comprehensive testimony of
Andrew Sullivan weighted the bal
ance in favor of the defendant Mr..
