MOVED IN THE ICE AGE.
Huge RowIders Carried All the Way from
Canada to Kentucky.

Huge BowIders Carried All the Way from
Canada to Kentucky.
Prof. A. r. Wallace states in the
Fortnightly Review that an immense
area of the northeastern states extend
ing south to New York and then west
ward in an irregular line to Cincinnati
and st. Louis is almost wholly covered
with a deposit Of drift material, in
which rocks of various sizes are i'm
bedded, while other rocks, often of
enormous size, lie upon the surface.
These blocks have been carefully stud
led by the American biologists, and
they present US with some very in
teresting facts. Not only are the dis
tances from which they have been
transported very great, but in very
many cases they are found at greater
elevation than the place from which
they must have come. Prof. G.. E.
Wright found an enormous accumula-
ton of powders on sandstone pla-
teau in Monroe county, Pa. Many of
these powders were granite, and
must have come either from the
Adirondack mountains, two hundred
miles north, or from the Canadian
highlands, still further away. This
accumulation of powders was seventy
or eighty feet high, and it extended
many miles, descending into deep
valley one thousand feet below the
plateau in q nearly continuous line,
forming part of the southern moraine
of the great American ice sheet
On the kentucky hills, about twelve
miles south of Cincinnati. conClomerate
powders containing pebbles of red
jasper can be traced to limited out
crop of the same rock in Canada to the
north of Lake Huron, more than SIX
hundred miles distant, and similar
powders have been found at intervals
over the whole intervening country.
In both these cases the blocks must
have passed over intervening valleys
and hills, the latter as high or nearly
as high as the source whence the rocks
were derived Even more remarkable
are numerous powders OF Heidelberg
limestone on the summit of the Blue
Ridge in Pennsylvania. which mus.
have been brought from lodges at least
FIVE hundred feet lower than the places
npon which they now lie The Blue
Ridge itself shows remarkable signs of
glacial abrasion in a well-defned
shoulder marking the southern limit
OF the ice las indicated also By heaps
of drift and erraticsl. so that AlS.
Wright concludes that several hun
dred feet of the ridge have been worn
away BY the ice The browning exam
pie of bowlder transportation Is. how
ever. afforded by the blocks OF light
gray gneiss discovered by Prof. Hitch
cock on the summit OF Mount Washing
ton. over six thousand feet above sea
level. and identified with Bethlehem
gneiss. whose nearest crop Is in Jeffer-
son. several miles 20 the northwest.
and three thousand or four thousand
feet lower than Mount Washington

WHEAT PANIC IN FRISCO.

SAN Francisco, Cal. March 1.-THE panic
in wheat which sent up the quotations ye,ter-
day from 81 10 to 81 Isl. for May delivery ap-
peared this morning TO have entirely sus-
pended. The highest offer on the board this
morning was 81 10, with nobody to buy at that
price. The Discrimination to trade May, how
ever, was due in a measure to the fact that
business in many of the offices is suspended
owing to the celebration of st. PatriCk's day.
which took place today at the midwinter fair
grounds. At the close of the call yesterday
the directors of the exchange reduced the
marginal price Of May from 81 10 to 81 05. l..
w. McGlaufiin & Co., the chief operators in
yesterdays deal have made a statement re-
fusing to be governed by the action of the di-
TectorS of the call board applied to their
contracts of yesterday, and repudiating their
contracts The firm has, however, deposited
with the produce exchange certified checks
covering the amount Of their transactions.
The directors of the exchange refused to re
ceive McGlauflin & Co.'S check, which
amounts to 100000. II is stated that the rules
will compel McCilauflin & Co. TO make good
their contracts on Monday next or be sold out.
