A New Explosive. Tse1<S7s-S
French chemists have for some time
past been experimenting with q new ex-
plosive called promethee, invented by T.
Jowler, which, according to the Revue
Technique, possesses some remarkable
properties peculiarly its own. This solid
portion is made up Of So per cent potash,
20 per cent manganese dioxide and "a per
cent ferric oxide. This Is triturated, mixed
In mill and filled into cartridges, o per-
meable cartridge being employed to facih-
tate the penetration of the oil, the latter
consisting Of 80 per cent Of petroleum and
10 per cent oil Of bitter almonds.
This prepared liquid, which is not ap-
piled to the cartridges until just before
use, is stored in metal TASKS holding about
one-tonth Of gallon; 2.a pounds Of the
explosive contains / .65 pounds of cartridge
contents and IS pounds Of the oil, this
quantity being sufficient to impregnate
the cartridge. Before being stepped in tho
oil the cartridges are noninflammahlc and
nonexplosive, even by shock from steel
plates, are unaffected by frost, moisture or
sudden changes in tho surrounding me-
dunn and do not undergo any change dur
ing storage. The oil is not readily infam-
mable.
It is claimed that tho disruptive force
exerted Is at least as great as that of dyna-
mite; also that 1t is directed in tho line of
greatest resistance and acts with equal ef-
fciency in dense rock, light fissured rock
and in water.

Jersey and California. Five of these
states are now represented by Democrats
who will give way to Republicans, name
Iy Gray of Delaware, Mitchell of Wiscon-
sin, Murphy of New York, Smith of New
Jersey and White Of California. The other
five states are now represented by Rspub-
licans, viz: Burroughs Of Michigan,
Davis of Minnesota, Hawley of Connecti-
cut, Ledge of Massachusetts, and Quay OF
Pennsyivauta. Besides the foregoing the
reports indicate probability of Republic
can Legislatures in Wyoming and North
Dakota. This would bring about the re-
tirement of Democratic senators Roach OF
North Dakota and the reelection OF Clark
of Wyoming or soma other Republican.
The states slscting Democratic legisla-
tors are Tennessee, Missouri, Texas and
Florida. These are already represented
by Democrats, SO that no political change
is effected. The reports state that Utah
also is likely to have Democratic legis-
lature. Mr. Cannon Of Utah, who will
r,tire. is a silver Republican. The
Republican chairman claims Nebraska
and the retirement of Allen, Populist for
a Republican Indiana also seems to be
safely Republican In the legislature. In
West Virginia, now represented by
Faulkner, Democrat, both state chairmen
claim the legislature. Frouq Montana,
now represented by Mantle, silver Repub-
lican, there are no reports on legislature
from which definite conclusions can be
drawn. In Washington the reports give
the legi stature as painfully close. The
state is now represented by Wilson, Re-
publican.
An analysis of the party changes shows
the Republicans gain seven seats from
ana. New Jersey, New York, North
Dakota and Wisconsin) and one from the
Populists, Nebraska.
The political divisions of the Senate
after March by states is shown by the

With one fifth of the precincts in the state
heard from. the Indications are that the
Republican plurality will near $1,000. 1t
may vary 1880 either way from that esti-
mate. The Democratic state committee
this morning conceded that the Republi-
cans had won in the state. Large Demo-
cratic gains are shown by some counties
while others show large Republican
gains. From the returns at hand, 1t
would appear that the Republicans VIII
have majority in both branches OF the
legislature and a majority on joint ballot
of about 16.

CURIOUS EMPLOYMENT OF ANTS.
A Learned Professor Utilizes Them in Pre-
 pairing Specimens.
From the Popular Science News.

From the Popular Science News.
 It is generally known tha; any small dead mammal or bird, when left near an ant hill, will ultimately be found picked clean of flesh The ants are clever and do their work quickly. It has been lately demonstrated that they can be made use full in the direction of skeletonizing speci- mems. Prof. Bernard has been employing ants as his servants.
 While in Florida, he had a fox-squrrel thus skeietonzed in a single day. The only agents employed were ants. His method of procedure is to kill his speci- men, bind it With wire in the position in which he wishes the skeleton to remain, and then place it near group of ant hills The voracious ants do the rest.
 The operation requires careful watching lest the chronological dissectors should not be content With simply devouring the fiesh but should attack the cartilage that holds the bones together. At precisely the right moment the professor removes the specimen from the neighborhood of the ant hills. and applies a preservative and hardening chemical to the cartilage

 "He would. There's no use denying It; he would.

TEN re NINE ON VAN WICK.

New York Telegram to Chicago Chronicle.
 Professional betters today established the election betting odds at 10 to 9 on Van Wyck. There had been some bets on those terms before, but the majority were on even terms, and the professional element offered no better. Today Bookmaker Joe vendig sent s1OOOo to Wall street to be placed on Van Wyck. He authorized his brokers to give odds of 10 to g.
 This establishes Van Wyck the favorite and unless more republican money comes forward the pressing volume of democratic money promises to make the odds still greater in his favor It has been founo that many men anxious to place wagers prefer to do business through regular speculative brokers, and this has made Wall street the favorite betting center But even there it is difficult to get demo- cratic money covered.

feature on the maintenance of the compet- itive price. American tobacco stock, after sharp rise to above 130, reacted, but final ly rose to over 134 on an announcement that the plug tobacco manufacturers com bination is to go after all. Apart from the two specialties the industrials have been generally strong, though the chief ac- tivity of the market was in the railroad share list, which. selling off early in the week, rallied sharply on short covering manipulation and some fresh buying, the grangers stocks taking the lead. Southern railroad securities have also improved on the frosts at the south. and the ending of the yellow fever epidemic. It is noticed that the bond market is active and strong, with renewed dealings at higher prices in many issues, the St. Louis Southwesterns and Atchisons being the features.
