Austrian's 1nvention ~ DO Away
With the Clapping OF Hands.

The Neues Wiener Journal gives an &C.
count Of curious contrivance which VIII
render the claque In theaters superfiuous,
and substitute for 1t machine performing
the same duties. The ingenious inventor.
Mr.. Zimmerman, has ascertained that two
leather sacks filled with air. when brought
violently together make a noise precisely
like that produced by the clapp.ng Of hands.
He placed pairs OF leather sacks In hidden
places throughout the theater and then con-
nected them by wires with the wings, 20
that they could be set In motion by electri-
city on button being pressed. The re-
risseur in the wings controls the apparatus
in all parts OF the house. and can produce
applause from the gallery. the pit or the
stalls at will Mr.. Zimmerman claims
that his invention In now In use In several
theaters in Paris and Berlin. but for OBJ
vious reasons declines to say which ones.

WHEAT QUIET AND PRICES
LOWER ON CALL.
Barley Market Firm for Spot Lots
and Irregular and f1uctuating
for Futures.

San Francisco, July 10th.
The local wheat market was quiet.
Prices on call were slightly lower in
sympathy with small decline in Chica-
GO The spot quotations were unchanged.
but there was an easy feeling in the
sample market. The local barley mar
ket was firm for spot lots and irregular
and f1uctuating for futures. Receipts
for the past forty-eight hours were $3.50
centals including $50 centals malt and
4S0 centals rolled. Oats were in good
demand, and had new feed been more
plentiful more business would have been
done Prices We're generally firm. Re
ceipts were only $50 centals old oats from
Oregon. Corn was quiet and steady. Re-
ceipts were $50 centals, mostly all East
ern. Receipts of rye were S95 centals.
There is no Improvement in the prices
of hay. There is a better demand from
small dealers and apparently the market
is awakening from it's lethargy. Mid
ding market easy.
