THE PRINT CLOTH MARKET

Fall River. Mass, June 16 (SpeciaD.-What is
said by brokers OF the local print cloth market
during the week Just ended is simply a repetition
of their reports for many weeks past. There is
absolutely business worth mentioning. The
market continues dull ever, and the men
who hopeful of an improvement In sales at
prevailing quotations admitting that they
are losing faith in their belief The sales during
the week were between 10 900 and 5000 pieces and
all Of them odds. The situation is
garded In some quarters critical Contracts of
any size have either reached their limit
close TO It. and the stock is accommodating in
the storehouses at the rate Of 100000 pieces weekly
This is a condition that the mill men cannot long
endure, and it is believed that unless buyers come
TO the fore pretty with large orders at the
prevailing rate q curtament of production or
reduction OF the quotation will be decided upon.
II is expected by many that If business does come
IL will have be lower basis than the present
one The fixing of prices for fancy weaves has
been lower than expected, but printers are now
moving some goods and II is hoped that re-
Yfval, slight though II may be, will result next
week Sixty-four squares still quoted at 3ls
cents; 38R inch sxy-four squares at AS cents and
4sL cents and 80 inch 6SX72s, at cents, and the

WIRELESS ELECTRIC CLOCKS.
From The London Mail.


The Royal Society held it's annual conversations
at Burlington House last evening, when, as usual
a large and distinguished company assembled TO
view an interesting collection Of scientific appl-
and inventions.
OF these perhaps the most remarkable is q clock
controlled at Il distance by wireless biography of
the Hertzian wave system The great potentaliteS
of the invention may be understood when it is ex
planned that under the conditions which the exhib,
be possible for the whole of the clocks in London
to be simultaneously adjusted by clock to which
the necessary continuance had been attached. To
render clock sensitive TO the influence of the wave
system It would be necessary aftX q receiving
instrument with n coherer an arrangement which
mig hit be extended only to the public clocks but
to those of private residences. Then by means Of
transmitter established at any point of the city
it would be possible to adjust every clock In the
metropolis by the instantaneous pressure of
button.
In all the collection there is but one item which
offers some relief to the profound seriousness OF
the surroundings 1t is a photograph record" of
Dyak song. the unspeakable werdness Of
which almost breaks up the instrument.

The situation in the zinc and lead mining district

OPPORTUNITIES FOR GRADUATES.

Severe entrance requirements have kept down
the number OF students but there promises to
be a decided influx next September. There are
many opportunities just now for professional
foresters In the United States. Several of
the young men who finish their courses this year
have substantial places at offered to them,
vision of Forestry. The New-York State Forest,
Fish and Game Commission would naturally
rely for its experts on the State college, and
other State Forest Commissions also need men.
The college forest is the property of Cornell
University for thirty years and two objects will
be kept in view in its management. The educa-
tional object will require that certain limited
portions be set apart for demonstration pur-
poses. Many things may be done in these re-
strcted areas, such thinning out young woods
and other silvicultural operations, which, under
present business conditions, practical COnsdera-
ton would exclude. The second object is to Sc
cure experience that may serve other forest own
ers, and especially the State in it's Adirondack
Reserve. We will endeavOr to show how a wild
woods in the Adirondacks may be treated, cut
and utilized, not only without impairing, but
actually improving its productive capacity,
changing it into a continual revenue producing
civilized forest.
White pine Is the most profitable home timbe"
of the Adirondacks, but experiments will be
made with other trees. The Norway spruce, a
much more rapid grower than the native spruce,
will have extensive trial. plant material is
very cheap. The European larch and to a less
degree the Scotch pine viii also be tried. OF
American species not natives to the AdirondackS
the Douglas spruce Will be favored promis-
ing introduction. Sowing of seeds be tried
instead Of planting although the probability is
that with the seasons SO uncertain the prOtec-
ton given in nursery, where the tender seed
lings are helped over the first years, viii insure
better success, To secure such plant material
cheaply q nursery occupying two acres of
ground has been established near Saranac Lake.
It is expected also to sell at cost price plant
terial 10 other woud-he forest planters in order
to encourage the reforesting Of the burned areas
of the State.

LESLIE COMBS RESIGNS
To Accept ChairmansMp Kentucky Re-
 publican Csmaaign Committee

Louisville, Ky, July 30.-At meeting this afternoon of the Republican State Commit tee Leslie Combs, pension agent for Ken lucky, announced that he would resign his office in order to accept the chairmanship or the Republican State Campaign Com mittee. It is said MT. Combs resignation is the result o. an interview which Judge B. C. O'Rear, nominee for Appellate Judge in the Seventh Kentucky District, and Sam J. Roberts, editor of the Lexington Leader, had with President Mckinley at Canton last Wednesday. Their visit was for the purpose of acquainting the President with the situation in Kentucky and the desire among the Republicans for MT. Combs appointment, and to asn views of the propriety of Federal offce-holder man. aging a State campaign.
 It is said the President expressed his qualification with the reports from Ken lucky, and the approval of the selection of MT. Combs for chairman, but doubted the propriety of a Federal office-holder accept ing political post that would call for prac- tically his entire time and energy for a period of three months.
 Messrs. O'Rear and Roberts reported to MT. Combs, who at once said he would re- tire from the pension office. It is said Gen. eral Collier, late Adjutant General of Ken lucky, will be rendered the pension agency.

 WAS EMIL LESSER The German Turn Verein Pre- pare a Surdrise for Him RECEPTION AND BANQUET The Turner's Hall Was Beautifully Dec orated With Evergreens, Palms
 and Society Colors-Honor to
 Public-Spirited Citizen
RECEPTION AND BANQUET

Emil Lesser, who has but recently re- turned from three months stay in Europe was given an enthusiastic and hearty well come home last night by the German Turn Verein, of which he is and has been for some time the president.
 MT. Lesser is held in high esteem, not alone by the Turner's, but by the people or Birmingham where he is known as a pro- gressive and public-spirited business man. He went to Europe some time after the burning of the Metropolitan Hotel, Of whch he was proprietor and manager and 1t was the occasion of his return that called forth the expression of love and respect which he heard at the Turner's Hall last night The reception was in the nature of sur prise to MT. Lesser, he not having been ap- prised of it until his appearance at the nall last night for the purpose of attending regular meeting of the society. The entertainment was arranged by the German Turn verein as an express sion of the confidence and esteem in which is president is held.
 The spacious Turner's hall in Third ave- nue between Twentieth and Twenty first streets was beautifully decorated with ever green, and the society's colors-crimson and white. The pillars of the hall were enliv- ened with cedar and smilax, plentiously sprinkled with red and white roses. Down one side of the hall was the table which was we'll laden with an inviting and boun- tiful repast.
 The large stage at one end of the hall, also decorated with palms and flowers, and in the center large portrait of MT. Lesser was placed.
 The hall was filled with a merry crowd of Turner's with their families and guests.
 The welcome took the form of a ban quet of many delicious courses, during the serving of which many toasts were made and responded to.
 MT. Dan Sandman was toast-master, and he presided with the ease and grace of d postmaster of the art. Speeches were made by A. Stackmar, c. T. Rainbow, J. T. Glover, Leon Friedman and others. All were apropos to the occasion and thor oughly enjoyable.
 In the course of the evening MT. Lessre was called upon for a speech. He respond ed by giving an account in the German language of his travels in the father land.
 Appreciation was ShoWn or the fact that MT Lesser is one of the best known and most public spirited citizens of Birming- ham, and numbers his friends by the hun dreds. He has been for a long time the president of the Turn Verein Society. His enterprise and ability were clearly proved during the years in which he was presi- president of the Turn Verein. His tuition owes its founding and success in a large measure to him. Many friends joined in welcoming him back to Birmingham, and in wishing him continued health and prosperity and happiness
