KITE SHAPED TRACKS.

The question of shape for a racing
course is also being much discussed
as it is especially matter of inter
est at this time On the subject, II.
l.. Brakeman, civil engineer of Lex
ington, Kentucky, who has built a
number of trotting tracks, says:
"What is the scientific reason why
a track with one turn should be
faster than one with two turns? Be
cause a body passing round curve
is subject to two motions or forces
in conflict with each other, one
force acting at right angles to the
direction of the other A portion of
horses energy is used in getting
forward, and another portion of his
energy is used in turning as he goes
round the turn. The same amount
of force in the locomotive will pull
the train faster when the railroad
track is straight than it will when it
is curved. If a regulation course
which has two turns is as fast as a
kite course which has one turn, then
by parity of reasoning kite which
has one turn is as fast as a straight
away course which has no turn,
which brings us face to face with an
absurdlty, for no one would deny
that a course perfectly straight from
end to end is the fastest possible
shape for a track. The eccentrici-
ties and peculiarities of a few horses
that seem to work better on turns
than anywhere else are no disproof
of the laws of motion and the ex-
perience of the majority of horses.
No one questions the advantages as
to speed and ease of good
springy soil for the surface of trot-
ting track, but the discussion is as to
the main cause of the superiority in
point Of speed which the kite track
undoubtedly possesses"

taking into consideration the guam

THE NEW ORLEANS STRIKE.

NEW ORLEANS, Nov 1O-Th= mayor
issued a proclamation this morning call
ing upon all good citizens to present them
selves at thes city hall to be sworn in as
special policemen. Only eigh teen meu
answered the summons. The police force
has been on duty eighteen hours a day for
two weeks, and is completely demoralized.
Every military company in the state is
under arms. ready to respond to call for
duty, and companies are being organized
all over the state to come here on special
trains should their services be required.
There has been break in the typosraph
ical union, some of the printers having
gone back to work.
On account of the general strike in New
Orleans Governor Foster this afternoon
issued Il proclamation 20 the citizens, re-
questilg them not to congregate upon the
streets aud thoroughfares, and urging
them to discountenance all undue excite
ment and acts of violence and TO make
known to the proper authorities any
breaches of the peace.
The strike will probably be declared off
before morning The governor had 3
committee of the strikers before him this
evening. He said that they were respon-
sible for the crisis, and that the RESPONSE
bility for any bloodshed would be upon
their heads. The committee promised TO
convene the Amalgamated council TO-
night and decide the question of declaring
the strike off. The deliberations are still
going OH, and the strike (of three weeks
duration) is likely to end at any moment.

GOVERNMENT CROP REpoRT.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1O-The crop re-
turns for November to the department of
agriculture show corn average of 224
bushels per acre. and promise an aggre-
gate production of little more than 1,6OO,-
600. 900 bushels. The yield of wheat will
not exceed 500, 600, 900 bushels. with the
possibility of shrinkage and the GER
tainty of light weight. The wet weather
in the spring and the drouth in the sum-
mer reduced tie quantity and quality in
Missouri. The average in Kansas is re-
duced by the low yield of sod corn, which
is, of course, included il the aggregate.
The low or bottom lands yielded better
than the uplands. as the season was too
dry for u large part of these. The scorch-
ing winds in Jane injured the crop ma
terially.
The average yields for corn in seven
states are as follows: Ohio, % bushels;
Indiana. IS; Illinois. 25 s; Iowa, %; Mis-
souri,. 90; Kansas, % 3; Nebraska, 2S7.
The average yield of kwheat is "A
bushels per acre. In New York it is 147;
Pennsvlvania, IA 3; Wisconsin,, 135, and
Iowa, 107.
The potato crop is light everywhere.
The estimated yield is 47 per cent. of an
average in Kansas.
