Mr.. Jules Gaussiran's Great
Invention.
Vindicator-News.

NlndlcatOr-NeWe'
The merits of this invention can
scarcely be appreciated without a
careful calculation of the expense
it will save. In the first place the
machine is guaranteed to save rs
per cent of the labor employed
under the present method of cut
ting cane for the mill and 40 per
cent of the expense of windrowing
cane for seed, or in case of a
freeze. And in this connection,
it is safe to say that in some in
stances the machine might be the
salvation of ones whole crop by
enabling planter to put his cane
into windrows quickly in case of
severe weather. Secondly, it will
save the entire expense of stubble
shaving for the ensuing season, as
the machine shaves the stubble it.
self while it cuts the cane. But
above all of its economical featu-
res, is the depth at which it cuts
the cane. 1t is claimed that the
machine will cut the cane from
two to three inches deeper or low
er than the ordinary knives can
cut it. AS it is probable that the
planter would not desire to cut
lower than two inches, let us base
the following calculation upon that
depth. The ordinary sugar cane
will average four canes tothe foot
in the row; the rows are 2l0 feet
long, which would give an average
of $40 canes in each row; there
are 80 rows to the acre which gives
an average Of 25,2O0 stalks of cane
per acre. Now, if this machine
cuts two inches deeper on every
stalk of cane, it will save the su-
gar planter so, 400 inches of cane
to each acre, or 1850 stalks of cane
48 inches in length. The average
weight of a stalk of this length is
2 pounds; hence the machine will
save 2,l00 pounds or little more
than a ton to the acre. While
cane is worth $4.00 per ton Mt.
Gaussiran's machine will save
&.2O per acre on account of this
advantage in depth. A man with
100 acres of cane will save $780,
90 one season, in addition to %
per cent of the labor employed in
cutting cane for the mill, and
about 40 per cent of the expense
of labor employed in windrowing,
and in addition also to the cost of
stubble shaving. Then there is to
be considered the absolute safety
against having the cane ruined by
a freeze while being harvested.

Important to Creditors

The United States supreme court
Wednesday decided the case of the
Louisville Trust company vs the Louis
Vile, New Albany and Chicago Rail
way company and others. The case in
wolves the contention over the guaran-
tee given by this railway company on
the bonds of Kentucky railroad COM
pany amounting to 81, 185, 900. This
guarantee the New Albany sought to
have declared void, and much litiga-
tion ensued.
The opinion in the case, prepared by
Justice Brewer, found the court of ap-
peals for the seventh circuit to be in
error in that it failed to protect the in
terests of certain of the creditors, the
court saying that, while not intending
any displacement of the ordinary rules
or rights of mortgagor and mortgagee
in foreclosure, they believed that

The Wabash And the Eel River Leas,

The probability that the supreme
court of Indiana will declare void the
lease OF the Eel River railroad by the
Wabash, and compel the latter com
pany to drop the ninety three miles OF
track out of its important through line
from st. Louis to Buffalo, has reused
the citizens of Fort Wayne to extra
ordinary effort for the construction OF
the link between the Detroit
line and the Toledo branch which
the Eel River now fills. A mass
meeting is to be called in
Fort Wayne, IS soon as the court pro-
nounces the lease UNCONSTITUTIONAL, to
raise fund for the construction of the
link from Butler, the eastern terminus
of the Eel river, to New Haven, on the
Toledo line. The distance is only
twenty miles and if that is accomplish
ed Fort Wayne, where the main shop
of the eastern division of the Wabash
is located, will be made the division
point between Detroit and st. Louie.
1t is considered an unfavorable de-
cision will force the Wabash to build
the connection, and 1t will be con-
structed at the point where the dis
lance between the lines is shortest. An
official of the company says that In case
the New Haven connection is built the
six miles of the Toledo line between
New Haven and Fort Wayne will be
and large yards will
be put in at Fort Wayne. near the new
