, knowledge which the average wheelman pos

used to some extent in England when the i'm
port duties were so scaled that English wheels
! could be sold at profit in the United States,
but the tariff became prohibitive. Thus Amer
| lean wheelmen and dealers are not familiar
/ with the gear case.
In detail the gear case is of simple con-
! struction, and the principle involved is easy
| Of solution. Harrison Carter, an English mill
| ing engineer, designed and patented the orig
inal device. With several notifications in the
| method of attachment Nto the frame of the
| bicycle, it is one of the best of the many gear
! cases made. The principle Sof fabrication ap-
| pealed to Mr.. Carter more than the idea Of
protection alone, and his case was designed
! so that supply of oik would act as a con-
| slant bath for the chainsN This was effected by
! having the case permanent fixture on the
machine, and the partsywes soldered to the
| frame. Oil was pourede intp the case until
the level reached the front isprocket, and the
bath was completed by the passage of the
| chain carrying oil to the rear gear wheel. A
wheel will run without attention to the chain
or without adjustment at the rear forks for
almost an entire season. when the gear case
is used, and saving oflfroEag10 to 25 per cent
is effected in the power required for driving

However, these all lacksthe oil bath lubrica-
ton and so are not without fault.

Among the passengers by the Campania

and Thomas Lloyd of the London
Statist. With Mr.. Lloyd came Mack
enzie Kay, manager of the Statlst.
Mr.. Barrie, In an interview with q re-
porter, said his trip was wholly for recre-
alton.
Mr.. Lloyd said he had come to the
United States under special commission
from his paper to examine the position of
affairs here. The political situation will
be looked into by Mr.. Lloyd, especially as
to it's bearing upon trade and commerce.
Secretary Herbert was passenger by

that he was convinced that our navy was
second to none in the world. He had
visited number OF gun and steel works
in England, and said he had seen moth

the places he visited while abroad were
the Armstrong works and the Krupp gun
works. He also visited the French naval

ALBUQUERQUE N. MEX, Oct B.
Owing to the darkness the Sheriff and his
party were unable to follow the Rio Puerco
train-robbers last night, but boarded spe-
cial train at daylight this morning. The
bandits went due south from the place OF
the hold.up, and are believed to be headed
for the Magdalena or Mogallon Noun
tains. The Sheriff's posse from Rio Puerco
is following the trail, while another posse,
headed by Marshal Loemis and Special
Officer Silva, started from Albuque rque at
o'clock this morning, going to the town
of Magdalina Dy rail and thence west on
horseback, hoping to intercept the robbers
before they reach hiding place in the
mountains.
The body of the robber killed at Rio
Puerco last night was brought into town
by the train tnat he had attacked and is
now lying at the undertaker's here, having
been surrounded by curious crowd all
day.
The. body is pronounced by Marshal
Loomis and number OF others TO be that
of Cole Young, who shot Line-riderFrank
Robson, between Benson and Nogales,
and who had been engaged in several
other desperate affairs in the Southwest.
For his apprehension several rewards
have been offered.
There is but little doubt now in the
minis of the officers that the men who
held up the train last night are the same
gang that has been terrorizing Southwest
ern New Mexico for the last TWO months,
but it is believed that with the energetic
measures taken for the pursuit of the
bandits it will be impossible for them to
succeed in making their way to their
rendezvous in tue mountains. ii the pur-

them there will undoubtedly be some des-
perate work, for both posses are com posed
of men who know what it is to stand up
in front of gun, and as the bandits know
that train-robbing in this Territory means
hanging they will never surrender.

LONDON. ENGLAND, Oct. 3.-The settle

Japan and Russia for the future OF Korea
is not well received here. 1t will be
source OF great weakness to the new jap
anese Ministry, for japan, having fought
a war to get rid of Chinese influence in the
peninsula, has only succeeded in letting
in the far more formidable influence OF
Russia. and in place of weak, trouble
some and irritating partner, has one very
much stronger than heretofore. Mean
while the King remains in the Russian
legation and absolutely refuses 10 return
to his own palace, though that
is provided for by the Russo-J apanese ar
rangement. The Kings perversity, added
to the japanese popular dissent and
change of Ministry In Japan, with For
eign Minister disposed to 'strong for

ment and throw Korea and her uniortu-
nate monarchs to the mercy of circum-
stances again.
President Kruger's ''war budget" is
causing some uneasiness. In the esti-
males of the South African Republic for
the current year he stands upon fl,000,-
900 for arms and munitions and over f600,
coo for special services. The question is
asked again, To whom is this vast ex-
penditure, seventeen fold more than last
years request directed? The solution
suggested in Capetown is that the Presi-
dent meditates some coup of his own in
conjunction with the Orange Free State.

The following table shows the condition
OF the Potomac water during the month Of
June: =. Ii
At Great Fslls-Very turhid for twenty
two days; turbid fol- one, day, and clear for
seven days.
At Dalecarlia reservoir, lBeffluet1t gate
heuse-Very turbid for seventeen DAYS, tur-
bid for three days and clear tor ten days
At distributing reservoir, eftiuent gate
house-Fery turbid for ffteeM days, turbid
for four days and clear for eleven days.
Capt. Gaillard, Corps.zof Engineers, the
officer in charge Of the Washington aque-
duct. says that the records of his office
show that the condition of the Potomac
at Great Falls as regards turbidity has
been worse during the past month than
during any June in the past nineteen years
that the condition has been a matter CT
record.
Capt. Gaillard reports the completion of
the project for removing the accumulation
Ct deposits In the conduit OF the Washing
ton aqueduct. The total length of conduit
year was 63,O51.2 feet and the total amount
of sediment removed was S946 cubic yards
The total lineal feet of cracks plastered
was 5,1S6 The total cost of the work was
SlO,473.12 leaving a balance of So SIG. IS to be
turned into the treasury. From the nature
of the material 1T was found impossible to
clean the conduit properly by sluicing as
provided In the project, and the work was
done by loading the material into tubs and
wheeling 1t to the nearest manhole, where
1t was hoisted to the surface.
