ICE MADE BY GAS.

A new idea comes from Indiana which
is to make ice with natural gas. 1t is
well known that when grass are COM
pressed they part with portion of their
heat and then as they expand they take
contact with them. These gases when
deprived of heat can be made to take it
from uncongealable fluids, and thus ac-
cumulate cold, which may be applied to
the freezing of water. Gas in this way
can produce ice at fifty cents per ton,an
ordinary we'll having capicity of fifty
tons per day.-Hardware.

BUFFALO, N. Y, Aug. IA, 1S94-Jhe
Poles of Buffalo are again in a fever of ex-

Point Overlooked.

According to a Washington correspon-
dent a point that has been overlooked in
computing the political complexion of the
next Senate is the admission of Utah
with two United States Senators. The
act of the last session of Congress admit
ting Utah provides that in March, 1895,
the constitutional convention shall be
held. On the first Tuesday after the first
Monday in November of that year the
constitution is to be submitted to the peo-
pie, and if ratified and found by the
President to be in accordance with the
act he will issue proclamation admitting
1t as State. The act also provides that
a representative of the LIVth Congress
shall be elected at the same time the vote
Is taken upon the constitution, also that
State officers and a legislature shall be
chosen, and that if the constitution is
ratified the legislature shall Immediately
meet and elect two United States Sena-
tors.
AS there's about n month from the time
the election is held until the LIVth Con-
gress meets, there will be ample time TO
have all the formalities complied with and
Utah proclaimed n State in time for its
Senators and Representatives to partici-
pate in the organization of the next Con-
gress. This would make in all ninety
Senators, and, as the new Senate now
stands, the politics of the Utah Senators
would cut an important figure.
Another probability which arises is the
admission of both New Mexico and Ari-
IONA, which may be accomplished in
time, so that four more Senators would
participate in the organization of the next
Senate. Bills have already passed the
House for the admission Of both these
Territories. The Senate Committee on
Territories has reported them favorably
60 the Senate and they are now on the
calendar. Senators of both parties have
been urging their passage, and it is more
than likely that neither party would OPP
pose them, because of the effect it would
have upon the elections, as the people are
anxious for their admission and would re-
sent opposition by any party TO that end.
1t is, therefore, quite likely that the
battle fer the control of the Senate will
yet be fought out in Utah, New Mexico,
and Arizona next year. The admission
of these new States would make n total
of ninety-four Senators, and any party
to control would need forty-eight for a
majority. With the Vice President the
Democrats could control the Senate with
forty-seven Senators.

The main deck and the cabins of Il
large steamer were washed ashore three
miles south of Fish Point Saturday. j.
Trudell, fisherman, says that 400 cedar
ties and lot of timber came ashore with
the wreckage. The reports indicate that
some steamer has gone down with all
hands OH Lake Huron. The movements
of vessels have been so interrupted by
the continual gales which have prevailed
from all points of the compass this week
that it is as yet impossible to determine
what craft are missing. If there had been
any survivors from the disaster they
would have undoubtedly reached tele-

which left East Tawas Friday, bound up

left the harbor of refuge terrible north

which ragged all night. From the large

the lost steamer is believed to have been
a big boat, one carrying from fifteen to
eighteen men.
