NEW USE FOR BICYCLES.

Discovered In London That Wheel VIII
Show Whether . Man Il intoxicated.
A new test of inebriation has been
discovered by an Englishman, says the
{ New York World. The latest that has
been introduced into America was the
requiring of the ''suspicioned" to pro-
nounce the words truly rural" three
times rapidly, but the new English
method has a decided advantage, and
it will quite easily be transplanted
and used here with effect. A pushing
British policeman on the Surrey side OF
London found Mr.. William Andrew
Gill the other day In . state which
suggested the unconscious cerebration
of alcoholic symptoms and brought
him before a local police official. Mr..
Gill defended himself masterfully.
"The policeman's charge is wrong" he
said. II was on a bicycle. and no man
who is under the influence of liquor
can ride two-wheeled machine"
An interesting question is thus
opened, and q question that admits Of a
good deal of argument. A competent
London authority, after due reflection,
has declared that If the man drinks
steadily and only makes use Of straight
liquids, there is no reason why the
alcohol should not readily balance him.
But ii, on the other hand, he mixes his
drinks with exasperating carelessness,
combining, for example, Scotch ale and
Dublin stout with dry champagne and
seltzer, there Is every reason to fear
that the heavy liquors might fly of to
one side, leaving the center Of gravity
upset and tumbling the rider to the
ground.
Treating the question seriously, how
ever. the bicycle as detector of in
ebriety would ~seem to be valuable
test. It is hardly likely. however, to
be accepted rs . conclusive argument
in the police courts. In nearly every
case that can be imagined the magis-
trate on the bench would prefer med
ical mans testimony. That was what
the London police Official in the case
above mentioned did, despite Mr.. Gill's
proposition that he would ride his
wheel in the courtroom in support OF
his theory.

SCARCITY OF LEATHER.
Frenoh Government Cannot Sup.
ply 1ts Army with Shoes.


Leather i 30 scanty and high of
price just now in France that the min
lister Of war Is greatly perplexed over
the question Of how to secure the nee
essary footwear for the great num-
Der Of men which that nation keeps
continually in readiness for its defense.
Not only this, says the New York
World, but q sufficient supply of leather
for the saddles, harness and other fur
nishings Of the cavalry and artillery is
lacking.
When the government invited bids
recently for the equipment Of the
the only contractors who dared make
an offer demanded SO high figure that
their propositions were rejected, and
those who have yet contracts to fill for
these articles are seeking every means
possible to break them, fearing that
ruin will be the result If they are COM
PEELED to carry out their agreements.
Hides have doubled in price since the
beginning Of the present year. This
unusual state Of affairs in the leather
trade was thought at first to be the re-
suit Of q corner in the market, but it
has since become evident that the re-
markable scarcity in that commodity
is produced by variety of simple and
natural causes.
Three of the principal reasons for
this dearth of leather are: The recent
war between China and Japan, the
many revolutions and bloody conflicts
in the South American republics and
the scarcity of fodder and pasturage
owing to the unfavorable weather of
last year and the year before in the
countries Of the world from which the
principal supply of hides comes.
The catastrophes of the climate and
of war in South America, although
serious enough in themselves, would
not alone have been sufficient to bring
about the present state of affairs. It
is the war between China and Japan
which is more directly responsible for
the dearth which now prevails. When
war was declared Japan placed large
contracts in the United States for the
equipment of its infantry and cavalry
with footwear and other furnishings.
To fill these promptly the contractors
in this country bought up nearly all
the visible supply of leather suitable
for that purpose.
Since the war closed Japan has sent
new orders Of equal Importance to the
merchants here for fresh supplies of
shoes and military trapping, j, and the
markets have been swept bare to fill
them. The price Of ''green" hides has
therefore risen SO high that the tanners
are buying as little as they can, and a
large percentage of the tanneries
throughout the world are closed.
In France especially the wholesale
manufacture of shoes is in deplora-
ble state. Generally the product of one
season is made up to sell the next. but
OWING to the high prices prevailing this
year for the necessary raw material
great number of the shoe factories are
closing and throwing out of employ
ment large number of workmen.
An immediate and practical solution
Of the question seems impossible. The
crisis has not yet been reached, and
the ultimate outcome will be interest
ing to notice.

A SUBSTITUTE FOR WOOD.
Planks Made of ork WIN Be Used In
New Ships.


New Ships.
Several months ago the board Of in
spection ard survey Of the navy depart
ment was directed to make an investi-
cation with q view of obtaining some
practicable substitute for wood in flt-
ting naval vessels. The desire for .
substitute was the fact that lighter
material was wanted if possible. one
that would not take so much space In
the vessel, and more than anything
else material that would not splinter.
It was also desirable to have nom
combustible substance.
The board, says the Washington
Post, has made q report to the secre-
tary of the navy and some of its recon-
mendations have been adopted by him,
and it is probable that some of the new
ships will be fitted with the new ma
terial as substitute for wood.
One OF the best materials which has
been found by the board is wood sub
stitute composed Of waste cork, or any
cork. This is subjected to four hum
dred degrees Of heat, and it is then
pressed into blocks Of any required
size. It can be sawed into thin strips
or handled very much as wood is
handled. Cork has gum that great
heat melts and Clues its particles to-
gether in compact mass. After being
pressed it sticks together IS tightly as

boards may be made heavy or light, a.

There Was Continuous Outpouring of Long Stock in Chicago Gas.
 New York, July 5.-Chicago Gas was the one weak spot of the stock mar ket today There was continuous out pouring of long stock which enabled the bears to continue their raids and established a lower range of prices. ] The stock sold down to 59B shortly after the opening and after rising to 61A in sympathy with the general mar ket dropped to 59% @60B, c net loss for the day of about a point. The sale of investment holdings was explained by the prevalent belief based on semi-offi- cial statements that the company may have to suspend dividends for a time owing to it's requirements to pay for new construction.
 The weakness of Chicago Gas was in marked contrast to the strength of the general market which improved slowly, but steadily from the opening to the close of business. The Grang- CTS were the special favorites and ad- vanced F to IFS per cent, leaving off

 riage CompleteIy Wrecked,

About o'clock last evening Congress avenue and Church street were the scene of a spirited runaway. Early yesterday afternoon two men hired a team from Furgeson, the Crown street liveryman. On their return trip while on Congress avenue the horse became frightened and ran away. At the cor ner of Hill street the occupants, whose names could not be learned, were thrown out and one had his arm broken. Both were taken to their homes.
 The horse continued up Congress ave nue and Church street, dragging the carriage on three wheels, one having been torn off on Congress avenue. Al the corner of Church and Crown streets the horse dashed into telegraph pole in front of Cosgrove's store and the carriage was completely wrecked. The horse escaped with but a few slight scratches.
