RoUNDLAP BALES IN ENGLAND
Hon. William c. Lovering's Demonstra- tion of Three Cotton Bales Un-
 rolling Automatically.

From the Boston Transcript.
 Hon. William C. Lowering has returned from Europe where he has been looking after the interests of the American Cotton company He found the spnners of Eng land and the continent using the Roundlap Bale with the greatest satisfaction. They are keenly alive to all the money saving ad- Vantages of the new system. The ease with which the bale is handled in transit and at the mill delights them. The low cost of freight and insurance, the immunity from fire in the mill and the fact that there are no hoops. wires metal of any kind used in baling are features that especially ap- peal to the thrifty European spinners.
 Mir Lowering had the opportunity to ad- dress a meeting of prominent cotton manu- facturers of Lancashire on the merits of the Roundlap Bale and by the courtesy of Messrs. Howard and Bullough of Ac- o-ington, they were invited to witness a demonstration of the running of three bales of cotton directly on the apron of scutcher. Nothing could have been more perfect or absolutely satisfactory than the working of the cotton in this way. The scutcher was started with three bales upon the apron and ran off at once without a hitch or Interruption The noise made by the beaters was a steady deep and health- full hum, showing that the machine was doing its work without laboring in the least. The lap that was made was clean and even running, weighing sixteen ounces to the yard.
 The spinners took the greatest interest in the demonstration and with one accord ex- pressed Their complete satisfaction with the operation. They said that they saw in the new system great revolution in cotton manufacturing. They are all anxious to buy the new bale. and are ready to give orders at once.
 They were surprised and gratifed to see 1,i,tt tl.,S tGhf an such as they were using in all their mills. They had been led to think that 1t required special machinery for the purpose whereas 1t only required little heavier apron to carry the bales or laps, weighing two hum dred and sixty pounds each.

CATTLE ARE DING
 IN LARGE NUMBERS
RavageS of TyckS in Nicaragua
 Destroying Stock
SURVEY OF CANAL ROUTE
United States Engineers Will Decide Upon the Most Desirable Course fo~ an Inter- Oceanic Canal
 Across Nicaragua

Managua, Nicaragua, September 1.-The owners of the large cattle ranches on the peninsula of Cosiguya, separating the bay of Fonsoca from the Pacific, report that the cattle are dying from the ravages of tycks, which attack them in great numbers and cause a fatal sickness known as Texas cattle fever" Cattle from these ranches, it is pointed out, are supplied as beef to the steamship companies and their hides are shipped to San Francisco and New York city and also to Hamburg.
 About sixty engineers and other employees of the United States canal commission have arrived at San Juan del Norte, in or der to make careful surveys of the five routes for canal across Nicarc gua pro- posed by the last board of survey, be- tween Machuca Falls and the Caribbean sea, so that the commissioners can decide on the most desirable route for an inter- oceanic canal across Nicaragua.
 The health of the party is reported to be good.
 Prof. Davis, of the United States geologi- cal survey. who is in charge of the hydro graphic division of the survey, is pushing his part of the work continuously and with much skill and success.
 The government of Nicaragua has sent a commission of engineers to the port or Corinte to investigate the causes or the increasing tendency of the island of Car denas. on which the town of Corinte IS situated, to become inundated. The con tinual gradual submergence of the town and island has been noticed since the con struction of the railroad from Corinte to Chinandega, part of the route being along the seashore, in 1896. It is only observable by a slightly nearer approach annually or the level of the railroad track to the level of mean tide and slightly perceptible increase of the amount of land covered each year by the eneroachment of the ocean and the estuary Passo Cabillo that separates the island from the main land. few years ago the iron pillars that sup port the railroad bridge across the estuary were found to have become unsafe, and the government, by the advice of engineers, filled it in with rocks in the space between the pillars entirely across the estuary, thus making wall that obstructed the natural flow of the ordinarily small tide This, it Is thought, is in part responsible for the encroachment of the water on the land in question.

CORK COMPLAINS
That American Fisherman Are After
 Irish Mackerel

London, September 27.-The Times today prints dispatch from Cork which says there is much indignation among the fish ermen and exporters on the south and west coasts of Ireland at the appearance of the American fishing boats, which compete unfairly with local men,.
 The dispatch adds: "A few years ago cured mackerel were exported to the United States, affording remunerative en- ployment at a period when employment was scarce. The Mckinley tariff killed the trade and the appearance this season of American fishboats, which are capturing autumn mackerel in large numbers, has therefore caused great irritation among the local fishermen, who complain that the new arrivals are taking their old trade
 ''The Americans, moreover, use small mesh nets which scoop up immature fish. These nets, and sling nets even, are pro- hibited in American waters. It is feared more boats will come next var"

FINEST DINING CARS
 IN THB COUNTRY The Southern Has Just SeCur- ed Handsome Cars. FINISHED In R0N0GaNY
They Will Run Between Montgomery and
 Washington on the Limited.
0AEo OF THEM VERT OUT YESTERDAY
Railway Men Were Much Interested in the Latest and Highest Type of the Car Build
 CTS Art

The handsomest dining car in the United States, rolled out of the Union station yes terday attached to the Southern's north bound limited.
 These cars have just been delivered by the Barney & Smith company, of Dayton, o. They were built expressly for the Southern railway Atlanta and Washington run, and they are beauties. Conductor M. J. Stamps was smiling as if he had found money. Many railroad men went to the station to see the car.
 Superintendent Burrowes, of the dining car service, received the visitors and showed them through. The interior is finished in a rather light, handsomely grained mahogany. This is inlaid with other woods in panel, ribbon flowers and finest designs. The marquetry is exquisite and is in the highest art
 On entering the car one gets striking impression of length, heighth and width, and at the buffet end a unique effect is ob- tained by stained glass. The china and silver cabinet is in that end of the car. The cabinet doors are of mahogany, and they swell in graceful lines from side to side. Bright silver and brilliant cut glass are reflected from mirror to mirror
 Soft, rich carpets cover the floor. The chairs are movable. In most dining cars the chairs are stationary. Assistant Gen eral Passenger Agent s. H. Hardwick re- marked that the roadbed was so smooth that the company was not running any risk In using movable chairs. Division Superintendent Vaughan observed that the passenger department was quite correct.
 The builders spread themselves on what is known in car construction as the head line. This is the dome effect in the roof. The decoration of the head line begins in Indian red and changes in harmonious tones to a very light creamy shade over head.
 he pantry is finished in mahogany. too but the woodwork Of the kitchen is a hand some oak.
 Every inch of space is utilized in the kitchen There are lockers everywhere for meats, vegetables and other stores. Ice is abundant, all the lockers for stores are kept cool, and the milk and ice cream cans are packed in ice.
 Superintendent Burrowes has a special device for making coffee. He says that the average American appreciates good coffee more than anything else that goes on the table. The Southern management has spent a great deal of money on it's dining cars. For long time the cars were run at a loss, but despite this the service was kept at the highest standard, and the patronage increased until now the dining cars more than pay for themselves It Is the company's policy to run the best dining

GEN. FUNsToN's PREDICTION
Says That Philippine War Will be
 Ended by Spring

.T9rt Scott, Kan, September 27.-General Frederick Funston, formerly colonel of the Twentieth Kansas volunteers, and now en route home from Manila, in a letter re- ceived by a friend here today, predicts that the war in the Philippines will have been esded by spring. General Funston says:
 "I would really like to see the war through to the finish, not for the position l hold, but because my fighting blood is up l am confident that by spring it will be over. The indications are that a very aggressive campaign will be inaugurated this fall and they will have what they lacked before, 5000 cavalry, absolutely in- dspensible in a guerrilla war. Lord, wouldn't 1 like to command a cavalry brigade? I have never for minute had any qualms as to the justice of this war. We are right and they afe wrong.
 "I hope that when they are conquered they will be made to feel for many years the iron hand of military rule. the only kind for which they are suited. I think the islands most valuable acquisition. Their natural resources are almost beyond comprehension. From strict money standpoint, they are great"

MOUNTAIN OF RICH
 ORE NEAR BESSEMER
Remarkable Deposit of Red Hematite Re- gently Discovered and Opened Up Four
 Miles from the Marvel City.

A lost or detached mountain of soft red hematite steel-making iron has been opened up by T. R. Collins four miles from Bessemer and quarter of a mile from a main line of railroad. The ore has been carefully analysed by an expert, and his signed report shows the ore to have a per- centage of 40 to 60 1-10 steel-producing iron, which makes it one of the most valuable ore deposits in the mineral region of Ala bama.
 This rich mountain is not a part of the Red m mountain range it is what is called a Host" mountain, standing apart to it. self. It's ore is greatly superior to that of Red mountain, and the high percentage demonstrated by the analyst is proof that it is one of the richest mines yet opened up in the southern iron country.
 This important discovery by MT. Collins has three-fold advantage The ore is the highest grade hereabouts; it is deposited in a way that is most easily accessible, and no machinery will be required in the min ing of the ore.
 Mir Collins has driven a tunnel 125 feet long into the side of the mountain, and thus laid open to view and profitable work ing what is in fact a great mine of wealth. The mine has never been worked; it has been simply opened by MT. Collins indi- Vidual enterprise. Curiously enough, the existence of this immense ore deposit at the very door of Birmingham has remained practically unknown. MT. Collins, who is one of the strong representatives of the great spirit of development In Birmingham and the district, is a discoverer, inasmuch as he has brought to light source of splendid wealth. with which even the eX- pert buyers of ore lands were unacquaint- ed. The discovery Is q very important one, in view of the great and ever-increasing demand the part of investors for min eral lands in the Birmingham district. Most of such lands have been already sold, and are therefore not on the real estate market.
 Mir Collins has decided to dispose of the splendid property which he has opened up.
 Any further information desired can De obtained from T. R. Collins, Bessemer, Ala, P. O. Box "A.

TWENTY-ONE BODIES FOUND
Sundays Storm Does Great Damage in
 India

Calcutta, September 27.-The great storm of Sunday and Monday, which caused de- structive landslides and floods, gathered at the bay of Calcutta and then moved north, giving heavy rain in Calcutta, Rangpour and Jalpaguri. Its greatest fury was felt at Darjeling.
 Simultaneously another storm gathered at Rangpour and passed westward from Puernea to Monghiri.
 The usual weekly reports have not been received by the government, and there is reason to fear that the district named Is flooded and communication interrupted. It Is estimated that between Darjeling and Kurseong alone 300 persons lost their lives.
 The line between Darjeling and Sonosa will be blockaded probably for two months. Both the upper and lower Puglajhoras have been carried away. A number of bodies have been recovered on the Happy Valley estate The soldiers of the Munster regi- ment are searching for bodies and clear ing away the debirs.
 Although the delayed reports from many sections prevent accurate estimates. it is evident that the fatalities far exceed 300. Nc fewer than 200 persons wer killed in the destruction of the Phool Bazar alone and as many as 100 at Darjeelng
 Twenty-one bodies have been recovered at Tamsongbate. where it is believed that an other twenty persons have been killed.
