LIFE OF sKYsCRAPERs.
Authorities Assert Best Buildings
VIII Stand Two Thousand Years.

Letter in the New York Herald.
SO many millions nave been and are
being invested in the so-called sky
scrapers that the report of a recent
speech by General SooySmith in Chi
cago TO the effect that the steel frame
work on many big buildings is left free
to the action of the air and gases,
which circulate through the tile and
space about the steel; that the steel,
though painted with oil, withstands the
corroding process only three years;
that within a few years the skyscraper
will fall and that steel framework
embedded in concrete, however, will
last 1000 years" may cause many timid
souls to fee from these buildings when
there is no danger.
Henry w. Hodge. who is a recognized
authority says: THE best buildings
here lin New York; will stand for
2,00G years, as far as the corroding of
steel is concerned. The steel columns
and Orders are encased in brick, the
interstces of which are filled with NOR
tar. For steel to rust, it is essential
that dampness get to it, that there be
alternating intervals of wet and dry
around it. This state of affairs is i'm
possible in our modern New York
buildings"

day fell considerably below yester-
days total. The two leaders in activ-

ment was temporary rise which was
brought about by reports which real

reached. The report was absolutely
false, and the leading anthracite pres
idents were a unit in declaring there
was no change in the situation. not

STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, June 6.-The dealings in
stocks dropped back again to near the
low level of activity of the year and
the days changes are narrow and I'M
important. So far as they are gains,
they are the residue of a little squirt
in prices with which the day started
1t was caused by a rumor that the
coal strike had been settled, which
came by way of London with light
volume of cabled orders to buy, the
origin of which was as doubtful as
that of the rumor. This was undoubt-
eddy ruse and was designed as a.
counter move to yesterdays report, set
afloat by the bears of the sudden death
of an aged financier. The principal
buying came from yesterdays short
sellers and as soon as the rumor was
authoritatively denied the buying
movement fell away and the market
fell back into its state of neglect.
There was a sharp rally in Canadian
Pacific on a resumption of the pool OPP
erations in that stock and this move
ment had some sympathetic influence
on tie rest of the list Sugar at one
time recovered all of its quarterly div
idend on the score of an advance in
prices in some grades of sugar. None
of these movements was maintained
The later market was inclined to de-
preston and there seemed a feeling
of resignation to a season of dizziness
Options from abroad are current that
There will be no notable revival in for
eign markets as the effect of the dec
laration of peace until after the Eng
lish coronation.
The continuance of the coal strike,
which seems to promise indefinite pro-
longation. will also be a damper on
any speculative enthusiasm. The as
semblng of the soft coal miners in
the Virginia and West Virginia fields
and reports that they will go on strike
extensive spread of labor trouble The
strength of to-day's corn market and
the reports which accompanied it of
excessive rains and floods in the South
west were a reminder of the possibili-
ties of future mishaps to the corn crop
and an incentive to caution against
speculative commitments on that score.
The bank statement promises to be
colorless. The market closed stag
nant.
The bond market was also less ac-
tive and the movement of prices mar
row and irregular. Total sales, par
value, $2,650,000. United States bonds
unchanged.
Total sales of stocks to-day were
229,S00 shares, including Atchison, o.

Der of vessels unable to sail on account

From current accounts there is not
diminution in the demand at the North
for the yellow pine, which promises to
keep moving out at a lively rate.
The journey of a bottle from Cen
trail Illinois to the Pacific ocean has
just come to light through the receipt
of a letter by Walter Roeder of Bloom
ington, ILL.,. from Jesse Wilson of Santa
Monica, Cal, saying that he had found
a bottle off the coast of California
which contained a letter written by
Roeder and asking the finder to inform
him when and where it was found.
The letter was written on Jan. q, 1900,
and after being placed in the bottle
the receptacle was cast into the water
of the Mackinaw river, ten miles west
of Bloomington. The bottle must have
followed the river until the confluence
with the Illinois was reached and
thence floated to the Mississippi and
through the Gulf of Mexico to the At
lantic ocean. The currents of the ocean
are supposed to have carried the bottle
around Cape Horn and thence up the
Pacific coast. The journey exceeded
10000 miles. The bottle and message
betrayed little evidence of the long
journey.
