rREsERvTNG MILK BY FREEzING.

PRESERVING MILK BY FREEZING.
The ocean steamers all serve ice
,ream at dinner ana buy a supply for
the round trip in New York. The same
ls true Of clans and oysters. They
SON the shell-fsh away ia "a tank
ahich is half full Of rock and seaweed.
rhsy draw off the water every morn
ing and refill the tank with a hose
from the sea, so that It is perfectly
easy to keep them in good condition
for several weeks. They keep lob
ssers in the same way.
Ice cream is more difficult to handle.
It takes about 500 pounds for the round
trip for a passenger list OF $50. 1t is
put up in cubes OF one quart each,
which are packed in pasteboard boxes
after being wrapped IN oiled paper.
The boxes are then slowed away in
tin cans or chests which hold enough
for single dinner. These are sealed
and piled up in the refrigerator, where
the temperature is kept even the
whole year around. The steward tells
ME that ice cream that is left from
one voyage is used on the next. He
has known it to keep in good condi-
tion for two or three months.
In Denmark someone has discovered
a process by which milk can ne pre-
served in a similar manner by freez-
ing it into blocks, and the process is
said to be a great success. Fresh
milk in cans cannot be kept longer
than foIty-eight hours without losing
something of its flavor but It IS claim
ed that milk frozen by the new process
may not only be preserved an indeh-
mite length Of time if kept IN an even
temperature, but is entirely free from
disease germs as il il had been boiled
A company has been formed al

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.

its own manufacturers, and has made
a strong beginning toward the con-
quest of European and Asiatic markets.
At the present moment American
manufacturers could be doing a much
larger foreign business than they are
if they could only supply the demand.
Nor is the iron famine confined to the
United States. Everywhere in the
world where iron and steel are manu-
featured the mills are working to their
utmost capacity to meet the demand
for their products and yet there is
shortage in the supply. In this country
the increased demand is not in any one
direction. Material is wanted for rail-
roads, shipbuilding, structural purposes
and agricultural implements. Work
men in all these branches of manufac-
ture feel keenly the lack of raw mate
rial with which to work. Americans
are already undertaking the English
manufacturers in their own markets.
During the last year they have been
exporting largely on old orders and at
prices quoted when iron and steel were
about one-half the price they are today.
Leading manufacturers express the
opinion that the demand for finished
products will continue all next year
and that the continued prosperity of
business in general is as assured as
any tHihS can De. Inc crops are good
and the work of transporting them will
be all the freight business the railroads
can handle. In fact, many of the lake
steamers wanted for carrying ore are
already reserved for carrying grain. 1t
is impracticable, aside from the ex-
pense, to ship iron ore by railway. In
the extreme cold winters of the north
west the ore freezes into huge masses
that 1T would require dynamite to get
apart, and it is altogether too cumber-
some for shipment in freight cars.

THE MARKET ELSEWHERE.

New York, Aug. 28.-There was a fall
ing off in international railroad stocks
today compared with that prevailing
last week. It then shifted into the in
dustrial specialties and a number of
THESE were marked up in feverish and
irregular manner. The general list was
maintained with difficulty and slight
furry in call money in the last hour
carried prices with the few exceptional
cases of strength below last night S
level.
In the final par hardening movement
on covering by shorts, some of the
specialties and few obscure railroad
stocks rose anew to the top level. This
made the closing of the market in tone
but the majority of standard stocks
showed no losses. An influential factor
in the hesitating and doubtful tone of
speculation was the renewed anxiety
over the money market outlook caused
by Saturdays bank statement The
buying for London account which has
served to sustain some stocks recently
was missed
Suggestions are coming from abroad
that the prolonged political tension is
having it's effect in curtailing business
and industrial operations There were
upward movements of Importance to-
day in the Tobacco stocks, Manhattan.
Metropolitan street railway, Sugar and
some of the Iron and Steel stock and
American Express Jumped ten points
over Saturdays price. On the other
hand there was weakness in Interna-
tional Paper Colorado Fuel Brooklyn
Transit, Tennessee Coal and a few other
specialties.
In the railway list the only stocks to
show any demand were Southern Rail-
way preferred and Kansas and Texas
preferred. The Chicago Great Western
issues showed wide changes, but were
rather feverish at the advance. There
were besides noteworthy gains in Mo-
bile & Ohio, Hooking Valley preferred,
Omaha. Northwestern, New York, Chi
cago & st. Louis second preferred.
Evansville & Terre Haute preferred
Wisconsin Central, Minneapolis, St.
Louis & Sault Ste Marie and Iowa Cen
trail preferred. There were notable
gains in a group of high priced stocks
including Lackawanna, st. Paul pre-
ferred, Northwestern preferred, Wells
Fargo and Pullman New Haven &
Omaha preferred were bid up without
sales, the latter 10 points. Kansas and
Texas 2s are 3as higher on the day.
Otherwise there were no notable fea-
lures in the bond market. Total sales

standard stocks were slight, while no
table advances were made in some of
the minor stocks. Mobile & Ohio and

baceos were strong, Continental pre-

INTERNAL REVENUE.

According to information given out
by Collector Gill, of the local internal
revenue district, there have been few
violations of the revenue war tax in
Worcester.
This information comes from Collec-
tor Gill, by reason of the recent pro
mitigation of a notice from the internal
revenue office to the general effect that
all persons who had failed to properly
stamp their business papers or pro-
ducts would not be proceeded against
by the government for violation of law
until the parties had been given ample
opportunity to square themselves with
the department.
This order has arisen from the fact
that thousands upon thousands have
failed to affiX the necessary stamps
through forgetfulnesS or ignorance OF
the provisions of the law If the gov
eminent were to prosecute all the vio-
lators, the courts would be filled for
years. However, another significant fact
is that the violations have been of lit
tie value, so that no great loss has been
occasioned the government.
When the new war tax went into
effect, Worcester business and profess
ional men, with their characteristic
progressiveness, realized fully the sig
nificance of the many provisions, and
as a result few, if any, violations are
known by Collector Gill.

QIoward, Crosby & Co.'S Boston letter.
Boston, Aug. 2S.-Wheat opened firm,
9sq!2c. over Saturdays close. Liverpool
cables We're firm and no lower, in spite
of our decline of about cent Saturday.
Northwestern wheat markets started
weak, up less than the others and not up
at all on December. Local and foreign
houses sold at the opening, however, and
prices yielded in the absence of support.
The worlds shipments, at less than
5000, 600 We're smaller than expected and
the Russian shipments were particularly
small. The trade expected a moderate
decrease in the visible, about 500, 900
bushels, but the actual figures, 1882, 900
decrease, were insufficient to hold the
market, principally on account of the
large Northwestern receipts, which were
5l5 cars today, against 462 same day last
week and 1872 same day last year.
Ihe weather map shows practically no
rain and higher temperatures everywhere.
The interstate demand for good wheat to
grind is asserting itself very decidedly,
ana Prime says: The country has yet
mand will assume before we make another
crop. The stock market at the start was
little affected by the lower range from
London and first prices generally showed
Improvement over Saturdays close There
were some reactions later and movements
were rather irregular. Sugar was in
clfned to Improvement on rumors that
the Independent retiners were seeking to
advance prices. Tobacco stocks were
strong on discussion of dividend possibili-
ties
In the railway list Union Pacific shares
showed strength on dividend prospects.
Big Gas opened down. but recovered

was heavy in tone under realizations and
failure to confirm recent reports of set
tlement of the gas war. There was a
good volume of commission buying at the
opening, but traders made a large pro-
portion of the fluctuations during the
first hour. They were not at all agreed
as to the course of the market and seemed
disposed to bull some stocks and bear
others.
AS the morning advanced the bear fac
ton renewed its pressure and the market
as a whole lost some ground There lis

Will be increased tomorrow to per cent
International Paper common declined on
RADIO Fuel & Iron declined on rather free
transactions, but the present move is
said to be preparatory to decided adj
vance, the start to be made by a new
pool just formed There was some dis
appointment over the Atchison statement
not showing the expected decrease in
operating expenses. Insiders on Con-
solidated Tobacco say that the business
of the company has improved steadily.
Despite many assurances that the in
terror will not draw on New York for
money to move the crops, the bank state
ment tends to increased canton. The
surplus shows now not more than half
of what it was year ago and less than
one-third of the surplus available in 1897.
and II is noticeable that prices have
reached point which intensifies the dis
position of prudent spectators to take
profits, although there is no pressure to
sell.
