mage over the senatorial rivalry of Senator

"T.ARRED MACrA.DAM."

The esteemed Bristol News in com
menting upon the desirablity of paw
ing some Of Bristol's principal streets
refers to new paving material as fol-
lows:
ut appears to have RENAME tor tho
Canadians TO discover a new stree!
pavement which is said to have lasting
qualities and have the great merit Of
cheapness that puts it within reach Of
even the smallest towns. The -An,ori-
can Contractor reports the paving of
streets in Hamilton, Canada. With tar
red macadIm that costs only seventy
SIX cents per square yard. and is a very
satisfactory pavement. Inquiry OF the
Hamilton street committee gained the
following statement: First, that the
price reported was correct, the paving
costing only seventy-six cents scr
square yard. Second. that they hav.,
streets which have been paved COR ten
and fifteen years and they have been
Kept in good repair at small expense.
Third that 'tarred macadam "a the
most satisfactory pavement they have
in that city. The construction OF tn $
roadway is described as follows: After
graded and rolled four inches Of crush
ed stone is spread on and thoroughly
rolled Then a coating is pu. on y!
crushed stone and tar. both stone and
tar being heated and mixed while hot I.
and rolled down into solid !nass.
There is some pitch added to the tar.
The road is surfaced with three
fourths Of an inch of mixed tar ana
gravel rolled down smooth. All II
which seems SO reaSona BILE that the in
formation is worth investigating :u:-
ther. 4 macadam surface bound With
tar ought TO be second only to asphalt
for smoothncss. and it should be mach
safer and easier for horses. And what
is better still about this roadway is that
no corporation need be paid heavy trih-
ute for its construction or repair. II
what they tell of tarrel nlacauam road
ways is true. let's have some Of Tao
here"
II would be Well for the street com
TO investigate this "tarred macadan."
II it is possible TO secure a suitable paw
ing material for some Of the less i'm
portant streets Of the city at less than
the dollar per square yard it would nave

all the money is spent in the more cost

rRADE eArHERs STRENGTH.
Outlook Is Cheerful in Most Parts of the


New York, Aug. 10. = Bradstreet's
says: The trade situation gathers
strength as summer wanes. Reports of
expanding fall demand arrive, accom-
panied by very cheerful advices as to
the outlook in most parts OF the coun-
try. In manufacturing lines produc-
ton appears to be at a maximum, and
the price situation retains most of its
old strength. Notable in the matter
of added strength are most of the
cereals and iron and steel in many
forms. Judging from numerous re-
ports the scarcity of supplies of iron
and steel is becoming increasingly
serious, supplies of structural and ship
building material being reported made
Quate at a number of points.
A notable exception to the general
strength of prices is found in raw cot
ton, which has disregarded almost
unanimous reports of crop deterioration
and lost all OF last weeks advance.
In wooden goods orders for light weight
mems wear goods continue heavy, and
raw wool, though less active, is no less
firm. The advance in boots and shoes
seems to have been felt but little, and
the slight gain in leather prices i'm
parts a very firm tone to hides. Most
staples aside from those mentioned are
firm and unchanged on the week.
