Takes Place of the Maine.
Havana, March 10.-The United States
cruiser Montgomery arrived here al
9:35 Wednesday morning.
The arrival here of the Montgomery
was very quiet, it being generally I'M
derstood that she comes to replace the
coast survey steamer Fern as quar-
tiers for Capt. Sigsbee and others.
Commander Converse, of the Mont
gomery, is n high authority on explo-
sives and his advice will be useful to the
court of inquiry into the loss of the
Maine. After firing the usual salute and
being saluted in return the Montgom-
cry was moored in the municipal har-
Dor near the wreck of the Maine and in
the center of circle of Spanish ships.
Washington, March 10.-The admin
istration has definite information from
source which is regarded as beyond
question to the effect that Spain has not
purchased the two Brazilian cruisers
Barboso and Amazonas.
The statement is made at the navy
department that the report of the
Maine court of inquiry probably will
come to the department some time next
week. 1t does not appear, however, that
this statement is founded upon any di-

The divisions of the Baltimore G
Ohio Railroad west of the Ohio river
are to receive the same sort of inn
provements that have been made on
the lines east OF the Ohio. Not only
are the grades to be reduced wherexeg
1t is practicable, but very much heay-
Ter motive power is to be introduced.
In order to carry the additional weight
the bridges on all the divisions are
being replaced with heavier structures
and the track relaid with heavier steel
rail. 1t has been demonstrated by ac-
tual experiment that these changes
will result in an increase in train load
ing in some places of more than so
per cent, the average being about AZ
per cent. 1t is the hope of the receiv-
ers that within the next two years the
Baltimore & Ohio Railroad will be an
18-foot grade road from Chicago to
Baltimore, with the exception of that
portion Of it which passes over the
mountains where helping engines will
have to be used. A great many of the
estimates for the different portions of
the work have been made, and those
who have seen the plans state that the
work can be done at a surprisingly
low cost considering the return. It
is understood that the policy of re-
Mobilization adopted by the receivers
two years ago will be continued by
the new company after the reorgani-

The olive growers Of California will
probably gather next winter the larg-
est crop ever grown in the Union. For
the first time the production Of this
fruit will be in excess of the demands
for consumption in California alone.
An enormous planting Of olive groves
has been made in California in the
last few years. 1t has been reckoned
that 100000 olive trees were set out
in this state last spring alone.
Rough estimates put the area of
bearing olive groves IN Califor-
mia at about 5000 acres, while
the total orchard area is about $4,000.
This state has practically a monopoly
in growing olives in America. Some
attempts have bean made to grow the
nevadillo blanco olive in Florida and
Louisiana, but the soil 10 not adapted
to the fruit in either of these states.
Some twelve years ago seventy-acre
olive orchard was started near Quad
alajara, Mex, but the trees never came
to bear fruit, and the scheme was
abandoned when 1t was found the air
was too damp,

The reason why ships are not struck
by lightning is attributed by German
authorities to the general use which
is now being made OF wire rope for
rigging purposes, as well as to the fact
that the hulls of ships are usually con-
structed of iron or steel Thus the
whole ship forms an excellent and con-
tinuous conductor, by means of which
the electricity is led away into the
ocean before it has time to do any
serious damage.

More or less aluminium is now util-
lied in the manufacture of scales, es-
pecially in the more delicate machines.
Many makers use aluminium for beams,
pans, riders, bars, levels, and bows,
in making their line balances and
weights. BY using aluminium, greater
delicacy can be attained in weighing
than when the scales are made Of
heavier metal, while it is easier to
make levels of aluminium, for the met
al can be more readily spun around
the glass of the spirit-level than brass.
