The Best Hello City.

San Francisco seems to be the best
telephone city in the world. With a
population of 342,7s2 there are 21,324
telephones, or 81 per 1000. In Europe,
Copenhagen is probably the best tel
ephoned city, with 1871 telephones to
it's 312,s59 of population, equal to 40
per 1000. In Copenhagen, too, the
best conditions for the public exist,
although the rates are relatively as
high as those in American cities. Lon
don compares very unfavorably with
these figures. At the beginning Of
this year there were 41,111 telephones
to a population of more than $780,
600. or a proportion of to every 1000
people New York, with population
of 2,350,O had 54,647 instruments, or
28 per ]. 200.

LIFTING BY MAGNETS.

The most important employment of
the magnet in the mechanical indus
tries is in lifting and handling such
masses of metal as ship plates, boiler
plates, and parts of machines which it
would otherwise be difficult to get hold
of. 1t effects an average economy in
time and cost of handling, stacking,
loading and unloading of from 90 to
rs per cent.
To meet the possible danger
that of many cause the current from
the dynamo might be cut off, causing
the magnet to prop its load, it is usual
in we'll appointed plants to install a
storage battery, which effectually
guards against such accident. In
handling billets and material of con-
venient shape number of pieces may
by picked up at one time. The same is
true of tin plates.
The type of magnets used in mcst
American works has a lifting capacity
of five tons. 1t makes a stranger nerv.
GUS to see them at work, and he gener.
ally does not need to be reminded thai
unless his life is insured at it's full
value he would do well to stand from
under. But slings and chains break
under loads quite as often as magnets
drop their loads by accident and in
wrong places. New York Times.

BY RUNAWAY CARS.
Three People Killed and Two Fatally
Injured at WiImerding, Pa.

Injured at WiImerding, Pa.
Pittsburg, Jan. 30.-Three people
killed, two fatally hurt and score of
others more or less injured, is the
record made by two runaway cars on
the Monongahela branch of the Pitts
burg Railway company. The dead
are John McFadden, Mary Kinkaid and
Robert T. Rush.
The accident happened at the foot
of the long hill running into Wilmer
ding from McKeesport. A car without
passengers got beyond control of the
motorman and dashed down the hill
one and a quarter miles long at a
terrific speed. At the bottom it jumped
into the Pennsylvania railroad station,
carrying away the side of the depot
and tearing up the platform.
Charles Bright, the motorman, was
so badly hurt that he cannot recover.
A large crowd gathered about the
wreck and IL minutes later second
runaway car came tearing down the
hill and ploughed into the crowd with
death dealing force.
The scene of the wreck when the
second car was hurled into the crowd
was beyond description. A binding
sleet storm prevailed at the time and
1t is said the two cars "skated" down
the hill with brakes tightly set.

WEEKLY MARKET LETTER.

The following market letter is fur

grain commission merchants, s Cham
Der of Commerce, Minneapolis, Blu
Board of Trade, Duluth
Jan. 29.-During the past week
abundant SHOWS have fallen relieving
the drouth conditions and for the pre-
sent removing all anxiety concerning
the winter wheat crop. During the past
week, wheat fluctuated between 70
and rs cents per bushel until on Satur-
day it sold under rs cents, closing at
7456. On Monday and Tuesday it
closed 744, and today 7515.
On Monday ~ million bushels of
oats were sold for a KansasCity trader
who was unable to furnish margins,
causing decline of cents per bushel
in the price of May oats; Oats auctu-
ated violently during the day, finally
closing at 421s. At the same time
corn lost "a of a cent per busheL
Wheat sympathized slightly but was
under the circumstances surprisingly
strong. Today's advances in wheat re-
suited from a general recognition OF
several bullish factors, which are very
encouraging to holders OF wheat.
First, the cash demand from the south
and southwest for all grain is again
strong; second, farmers have refused
to sell at the recent low prices and
have much confidence in the value OF
their grain third, stocks of wheat II
northwest country elevators have been
reduced AZ million bushels in the
last three weeks; fourth, Statisticiar
Snow says that the amount of corn II
| farmers hands on March /, 1909, will
not exceed 800. 600, 600 bushels as com
pared with S25 million bushels OF
March 1, 1901. Northwestern receipts
of wheat are declining. With country
elevators sod out and very small de
liveries by farmers, receipts are likely
to continue small. We think tina
wheat is good purchase at presen
prices.

Postmaster Whsle informs us that while

and all the details pertaining thereto
no order as to when the route shall
start had been received up to Wednes-

Little Rock, Ark, Jan. 3O.-The
heaviest losses ever sustained in Little
Rock from a like cause is the result
of the terrible storm of sleet and cold
rain which has prevailed here for the
past three days. The business section
of the city is a scene of desolat1on
and business men on every hand are
mourning heavy losses that cannot be
recovered by insurance. The estimated
damage will exceed 100000, including
loss to business. In many instances
the loss has not yet attained its limit
and continued damage will occur
where the accumulated snow and
sleet is not removed from the roofs OF
the buildings. In addition to the
damage by water in the stores the
main street suffered more than any
other part Of the city.
Add to this, in some parts OF the
city the telegraph and telephone poles
are all down, pulling trees and wires
with them and forming a CONCEALED
mass of wreckage. Street cars were
irregular all day. The fall of sleet
amounted to about five inches. Little
Rock is practically shut off from the
| world.
Lexington, KY, Jan. 30.-Lexington
was in darkness during the night and
almost every street is blocked with
fallen trees, telephone poles and tan
gled wires. The sleet has continued
without cessation for the last "a hours
and the swapping of trees and poles
was like cannonadlng.
The mayor ordered all electric cur
rents, except those supplying severa
street car lines, cut off for safety
Telephone companies have suffered
seriously. Beautiful trees for which
the city is noted are falling by hun
dreds. The sleet continues and in thu
heaviness of the fall and disastrou:
effects promises to eclipse any eve
experienced here.
| Cincinnati, Jan. 30.-A heavy snow
and sleet storm struck this city dur
ing the morning and over four inche
of snow now covers the ground. Stree
cars have much difficulty in running
and some of the trains from the Yves
are reported delayed. The storm
general over the Ohio valley.
Topeka, Kan, Jan. 30.-Kansas i
