channels, and is formed at its
lower end with longitudinal
teeth or ribs (t), adapted to
engage the teeth of the mat
rices and hold the latter in
suspension. The ribs of the
distributor bar vary in num-
Der and arrangement at diff
ferent points in length, there
being a special arrangement
over the mouth of the maya
zine. The matrices to be dis
tributed are simply pushed
horizontally along the bar at
one end so as to hang sus-
pended therefrorn, and then
moved slowly along it over
the mouths of the channels.
Each matrix will remain in
engagement with and be suS-
pended from the teeth of the
bar until it arrives over its
proper channel, where the ar
rangement of teeth permits
the matrix to disengage, so
that it falls directly into the
channel. This falling action
of certain matrices into their
respective channels. while
other matrices are continu-
ing their course along the bar
to their proper points of de-
livery, is clearly shown in
Fig. 4 The movement of the
matrices is effected by longi-
tudinaI screws CU), which lie
below the distributor bar in
position to engage the edges
of the matrices and slide them
along the bar.

COTTON Is WEAKER.

New York, Nov. 1.-THE cot
ton market opened steady at a
decline of one to two points.
Trading was heavy and despite
the falling off in receipts prices
declined up to IL o'clock, when
quotations were 10 to IL points
below last nights closing. This
weakness was caused by lower
cables and heavy liquidation of
long accounts. There was con-
siderable foreign selling, led by
German houses. Sales during
the first hour were 115 bales.

WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER IL
NO LIQUOR REGULATIONS
THERE.

Chicago, Nov. ia dispatch
to the Times Hers from Aber-
deem, S. H., says: AS the prohl-
bition law of the state was en-
acted TO prescribe regulations
for the enforcement of the pro
visions Of article "a of the consti-
tuition of the state of South Da-
kota entitled Prohibition" it is
maintained by several local attor-
neys and ex-legislators that the
law, so dependent upon the con-
stitution, was to all intents re-
pealed by the vote on Tuesday,
which repealed the prohibitive
article; in other words that South
Dakota has no law calculated to
regulate the manufacture and
sale of intoxicating liquors.
These authorities are inclined to
hold that the state will be in this
position from the time the official
canvass is announced until the
legislature meets in January and
enacts a license law or makes
some provision.

watched with interest the candi-
dates taking their practice in an
English rugged shell manned by
English oars. He expressed him.
self as well pleased with the
English rugged shell and said:
at is rather a radical move,
but l think that the oarsmen are
able to get more power from their
work by pulling on the zig gag
benches and with the English
patterned oars than with seats
arranged like the old ones. We
like the change and | think we
will stick to it. AS to adopting
an English stroke, | do not think
we will. There are a few changes
to be made with the stroke Yale
has rowed for several years. We
have unconsciously adopted
some of the things that profess
sional Oarsmen have been using,
but we shall simply get back to
where we were few years ago."
Mr.. Cook said that it was not
decided where Yale would row
the coming year. No plans what
ever had been made by Yale for
a race next June.
