English steel rails have been
purchased by California railroad,
the cost of rails and freight by SEA
being less than the cost of Ameri-
can rails and freight by railway.
English rails cost about $23 per
ton at New York or other Atlantic
ports, and the duty brings this up
to about $50, the duty being $7.S4
per ton, and then comes the cost OF
transportation. Sailing ships from
England, however, will carry the
rails to Pacific ports at low rates,
as there is little cargo to be obtain
ed for the outgoing voyage. The
order is for 10000 tons, and was
obtained by Griswold Il Gillett, of
New York, agents for the firm OF

Maximum Depth Of ocean.

A sounding has recently been
taken in the Pacific ocean, near the
coast of Japan, which showed g
depth of 29,40O feet, or approxi-
mately FIVE and one half miles.
This is a little more than the height
of the loftiest mountain, Meunt
Everest, which is situated i'll the
Himalaya range to north of India.
How much deeper the Pacific is
than this it is impossible to tell;
the wire having broken, presum--
ably through it's inability to sus-
tain It's own weight. In previous
attempt to reach the floor of the
ocean at this spot, the wire broke
at depth of 25,sO0 feet. It has
been suggested, as ore theory OF
the formation of mountain ranges,
that they represent the crumpling
up, or buckling, of the earth's crust
under the severe contraction strains
that were set up as the surface OF
the globe solidi6ed.
If this be true, the deep ocean
valleys or gorges, such as this off
the coast of Japan, must I've the re-
suit of the same action. Taken i'm
connection with the leftirst NOM
tain, this surrounding gives diff
erence in distance from the earth's
center of about twelve miles. or
1883 of the earth's radius.
