Paris Letter.

BarlS LetteT
NJ D'Arsonval gave a successful demon
stration at the Museum of Natural History
of the qualities of liquefied air. BY enor-
nous pressures he reached a temperature
of minus $50 centigrade. The liquefied air
was contained In a double-sided silver-cov-
cred bottle, and did not evaporate. Expert
ments with India rubber bottles showed
that they became as hard and brittle as
glass. The rubber could be pulverized, but
became elastic again when the air was
evaporated.
M. D'Arsonvale showed a beefsteak
dipped I'm liquefied air and then let IL fall
on the floor, when ii sounded like a stone
and broke I'm pieces. IL was eventually re-
duced TO a pink powder easy TO masticate
and assimilate. likely TO be OF important
service TO hospitals. Ice dipped in liquefied
air cut glass like diamond: mercury be-
came hard as anthony. Metals. especially
steel. had their qualities increased ten
fold by the application of liquefied air. Con-

enormous cables.
Liquefied air cannot, however do any,
thing 10 preserve meat, as IL is in no way
antiseptic and will not kill microbes More
over, IL Is now five times dearer than ice
Nor can IL be used for motor carriages or
submarine boats. because when heated IL is
such powerful explosive than no metal
yet known could resist Its shocks. NJ. OAR
sonval warned the French public 10 beware
OF companies collecting money for pre-
serving meat or propellng motors by lique-
fled air. Personal experiments showed that
such experiments must necessarily end in

To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal:
The action of the Indiana House of Rep
resentatives in amending the primary cleo
ton bill in a way that, If Ii becomes a
law, will apply only to Marion county. is.
to put ii mildly of surprising and doubtful
meaning. This action is certainly not in
accord with the sentiments of the honest
masses of their respective constituencies.
1, matters not what motive actuates oppo-
sition 80 the bill for the government of all
primary elections In the interest of honesty
and fairness; it would be a humiliating
reflection on the electors of Indiana to
presume a large majority were not in favor
of any law that will make ii possible for a
worthy citizen TO secure q nomination OF his
party by and through an honest expression
of the honest voters. failure TO apply
the provisions OF this proposed law TO the
entire State, or to so cripple its interest
and purpose that primaries may still re-
main subject TO the manipulation or dis
honest politicians. is also a reflection upon
the honesty of the lamented Ex-Governor
Mount and the declarations OF his sue
cessor on this important question. as also
upon the intelligence OF the common people.
If il is essential, in the interest of purity
and honesty, to enact and maintain a law
to govern general elections. how much more
quent good and party harmony that the
same conditions should apply TO the pri-
mary, or starting point. The Legislature
of Indiana was practically driven TO the
enactment OF what Is known as the Aus
tranan ballot law. which may not be all
IL should be, but IL was a laudable effort
to correct the evils and abuses of the old
system, so long a fragrant outrage and
subversion OF the primary principles of
good government that tile average voter
was Disguised, and the machine politician
was heartily ashamed OF the degradation
to which the body polite was brought
through its manipulation. IAN honest bal
lot and fair count has long been her
aided TO the world as a cardinal principle
of the Republican party. TO which l belong.
The many abuses practiced- especially I'm
primary elections, are certainly not ac-
cepted as a cardinal doctrine by any party.
and many good citizens. if they do not take
part I'm primary elections, will not be bound
by their action when IL Is not I'm accord
with the principles of their respective
parties. The platform of the party COM
prising the majority I'm the present Legis-
lature has demanded a law To govern pri-
mary elections OF the entire State. and not
Marion county alone. For the future OF
these solons and the parties they claim TO
represent they must consider well the DOW
er behind the throne OF justice.

A DAY OF BULLISHNESS
ALL MARKETS QUIET, BUT SEEKING
A HIGHER LEVEL.
Sharp Advances in Wheat and Corn
Oats Nearing the 26c Mark-Pro-
visions Quiet bat Stronger.

CHICAGO, Feb. 2s.-wheat and corn were
moderately active. to-day, and closed
strong. the former sake higher and the
latter %G%c improved. Oats closed lsq54c
up and provisions unchanged TO 10c higher.
Business in wheat was not OF conspicu-
Gus character, but the tone of the market
was firm. A prominent elevator concern
formed the chief support taking in about
half a million bushels Of May during the
halliday session. May opened AG3sc higher
at 76c to 761sc, influenced mostly by the
steadiness of the Liverpool market. SYM
pathy with corn helped the market later
and May touched 76ssc, and closed ssQ19c
higher at 761sQ76Ac. There was little salts
faction in calculating the value of the re-
ceipts; in most cases they were for two
| days. The export situation was apparently
as bearish ever, for with ocean freights
almost nothing compared with a few
| months ago, exporters had but one load to
report taken for foreign shipment. Sea-
board clearances, in wheat and flour, were
equal to $4,000 blu. Primary receipts were
| 1000 bu, compared with $4,000 blu last
year Minneapolis and Duluth reported 656
| cars, against All last week and 631 a year
| ago. Local receipts were AZ cars, two of
| contract grade. Argentine shipments, ae-
cording to Board of Trade figures, were
| l,l32OOO bu last week.
The action of the corn market seemed to
| indicate that there was a fair amount OF
| short corn let out Thursday. The receipts,
470 cars, furnished IL of contract grade,
| which was quite an improvement on the
| showing that has been made for some
| months What influence this had, however,
| was expended at the opening, which was a
| shade lower to 1sQAc higher for May at
| 40slc to Ale. There was a fair commission
| house demand, which met with light Offer
| ings, under which the market held steady
! for some time. Towards the end of the
| session, buying, which appeared to be for
| covering shorts, caused a sharp bulge to
| Also, and the close was strong, 5sqAc
| higher, at 4112c
| Oats were dull early but active and firm
| later, in sympathy with corn. Some long
| oats were believed to have come out on the
! advance, but the market had good support.
| May sold between 25esM25a4c and 257sq26c,
and closed 1sQAc higher at 257sc. Receipts
| were 81 cars.
Provisions were generally the personifica-
l ton of all-around dullness. May pork, for
1 instance, opened at $1407h and went to
| SALTY on just two trades. Sentiment, how
| ever was bullish because of light hog re-
| ceipts and in sympathy with the corn
| strength. May pork closed 10c higher at
| sl415; May lard unchanged at S7.l211 and
| May ribs &c up at s7.l211.
Estimated receipts Monday: Wheat, 20
cars; corn, 6l5 cars; oats, 4l0 cars; hogs,
$1,000 head.

Trade Healthy I'm Volume, Conditions
Considered, and Prices Steady.

While there Is no boom in any line OF trade,
the volume from day to day is healthy. and with
this prices continue steady in nearly all lines.
As one of the older merchants on South Me-
ridian street speaks of conditions at the present
time there is plenty of business. but prices are
in a rut from which there has been no swerving
for long time. Such extended period of
evenly balanced quotations Is unusual at any
season. There is generally break ad-
vance, but for some time past there has been
steady adherence to the price schedules. Lines
which have been strong continue so, and lines
which weak well continue in that tone,
but the quotations stand. Southern vegetables,
such tomatoes and peas, easier on in
creasing receipts. Oranges rule steady but
large shipments route to Northern mar
kets. and break will not be surprising. Lemons
much frmer. Bananas are in stronger posi-
ton. Choice grades of butter in good request
as is cheese at prices quoted. Eggs are selling
well. but receipts are not so large as to
terially affect prices. Poultry is selling fairly
well. with prices ruling much the same as for
The local grain markets move along much in
the rut of month past. Receipts are light,
while all cereals readily taken at the fol,
lowing range of prices track, as reported by
