THE MARKET OPENED FIRM


 New York, January 1.-The cotton trade at large continues to show Q haiting atti- tude, and the volume of business today Is quite small, although Liverpool cables were better than expected, and the movement of the crop in this country was still small in contradiction of forecasts ofian expand- ing movement.
 The market opened firm at an advance of 5q7 points and continued to rule gen. eraly firm, although quiet, throughout the session, at the best point showing a net gain of 5q10 points, with the improvement helped by Wall street, southern and Euro pean buying as well as covering by the shorts, following conflicting political news from abroad and respectingSth Sthe true condi- ton of affairs in South Africa. contlhued bullish accounts from the southern mar kets were also a factor on which the mar ket here closed steady and quiet at net gain of 2d4 points.

RECENT INVENTIONS.

To indicate when clock needs wind
ing fan-shaped device is pivoted at the
top of the ease to be opened gradually
by the winding up of cord on the
spring shaft, revealing the words wind
up when fully opened.
An Englishman has patented 4 COM

be found useful in timing the move

road, showing at glance the time con-
sumed in travelling each mile.
In new automatic spring fishhools
two pairs of steel wires, having hooked
and pointed ends, are pisoted together
in such position that half of the ends
act as bait-holders and the rest are set
to grip the fish as soon as it bites.
TO give an alarm when the speed of
motor ears is too great a small dynamo
is used TO generate power, with an ar
mature set To respond at a predeter-

electric bell as soon as the abnormal
speed is reached.
An Englishman has invented car

purify it. the iarring of the carrier in

of hundred-dollar checks.
The Bank of England holds the rec
ord foi big checks. This institution is
sued one for S55, ,000, 900 and another for
s622, 500, ,0G0. These valuable pieces of
paper were drawn in connection with
the last Chinese loan.
One of the smallest checks ever is
sued was for one cent. Uncle Sam gave
this TO Grover Cleveland in payment of
salary. there being a discrepancy in the
ccallats 10 that amount. Mr.. Cleve-
land did not need the money, so he
framed the check as curiosity.
The big insurance companies get a
good many large checks. some of them
running from hundred thousand to
hali million dollars. Big checks float
around in greater number among the

almost any other place. A big block OF

PORTLAND Or, January 22.-The final
builders's S trial trip of the torpedo-boat
destroyer Goldsborough was made on
the Columbia river yesterday. The re-
suit was so satisfactory that it is not
thought necessary to make another
builders trial. The machinery worked
in absolutely perfect order. The boat
started with 250 pounds of steam pres
sure, and for time made 405 revolu-
tions. This is As revolutions more than
is required to make 30 knots. The
average speed ranged from "a to 80 and
half knots. The Goldsborough re-
turned to the city at 0 o'clock last even
ing. The trial trip will probably take
place on Puget sound, under the di-
rection of the United States navy de-
partment, i'll about ten days.
