THE MAKING OF BOTTLES.
Enormous Number Turned Ont I'm This
Country Annually,

st can tell you a few things about bot
ties" said Mr.. o. q. King, general man
ager OF c big factory that turns out many
thousands of them daily At Newark o.
to a Washington Post reporter.
elm the nrst place. bottle makers have
been used to figuring on the consumption
OF one pound OF coal 10 each pound Of glass
produced in bottle form. so that the fuel
bill is a tremendous factor. This causes
the plants to hunt locations as near as pos
sible to the coal mines. A great deal OF eT,
pense was saved during the existence OF
natural gas, but this source OF power has
nearly vanished In many districts OF IN
diana, Illinois and Ohio, the three great
bottle making states OF the union
"The number of bottles-and ] am now
talking only OF the sort used by the whisky
and beer trade-made in the United States
yearly IL SO stupendous that I'd diHlike TO
give the figures for fear I'd be charged
With exaggeration. But when one plant,
and that by no means the biggest In the
country, turns out every day 1000 gross
that IL, 2ss, 900 bottles-s dim idea may DO
had OF the vast national output"

sHEEP-Receipts OF sheep were more
moderate this morning, but the quality of
the offerings was rather inferior. There
was not much activity to the trade and
the tendency on the part of both packers
and feeders was to buy their supplies a
little lower.
Packers apparently did not care particu-
larly for many sheep and lambs this morn
ing and as a result trading was a little
Glow, with the market steady to a shade
lower. Fed lambs sold as high as $500 and
ewes 1926. There was scarcely enough
good stun offered, though, to tell much
about the market.
Feeder buyers were also scarce and the
market was very dull and weak. The best
grades sold without much trouble, but there
was but little demand for the commoner
kinds

HOGS-There was not a very heavy run
off a little owing to unfavorable reports
from other points. Trading started out on
a basis of a decline amounting to about
2hc. The market could perhaps best be de-
scrtbed by calling its weak to &C lower. The
bulk of the sales went from s6.45 to $3.50.
with the choicer loads selling mostly from
$3.50 to 1886, with a lot at $3.50. Trading
was not very active on the start, but the
situation seemed 70 improve as the morn
little better. After the first round or so
$3.50 became the most popular price. The
heavy packing grades were neglected, the
same as usual, and they sold from $40 to
S6.45. Several trains we're late In arriving,
so that. while everything that was offered
on the opening market was disposed of In
good season, IL was late before the market
came to a close. REPRESENTATIVE sales:

mond a commercial possibility.
Il was as a result OF his attempts to pro-
duce artificial diamonds that Mr.. Acheson
discovered carborundum. The writer Of the
| article tells that he had begun his expert
ments as early as 1880, but had come to a
stop because the instruments at his disposal
did not keep pace with his ideas. He began
work again with the help Of an improved
dynamo. which furnished him with an cleo
trio current capable OF producing a tempera-
aure Of $500 degrees Fahrenheit. Carbon
fused with clay at that temperature and
then allowed to cool would. be hoped, pro-
duce diamond. 1t produced instead a beauti-
full red crystal, hard enough to scratch glass
and even the diamond itself. Mr.. Acheson
at first believed his crystal TO be a combina-
tion OF carbon and aluminium, and gave 1t
the name OF "~carborundum." BY means OF
chemical analysis, however, he found 1t to
be a combination OF carbon and silica, or
sand; a new substance, that Is, which. so
far as we know, does not exist in nature.
The substance promised TO be OF the great
est use for abrasive purposes. Accordingly,
he established his works on the land OF the
Niagara Falls company, and manufactures
his products at a cost that enables him to
compete successfully with the mined
abrasive metals. The ingredients Of which
carborundum Is composed are the cheapest
and simplest possible-pure white sand.

are mixed in the requisite proportions. and

To acccmodate 200 pupils there
would be needed In the building approx
imately 1.Z57.C00 cubic feet of space

Indications Point to His Sc

APPOINTMENT OF DELEGATES
Choice Of New Official Will Be Made
by General Committee To-
morrow Evening.

a movement is under way among the
members Of the American Association
for the Advancement Of Science for the
election Of Carroll D. Wright. United
States Commissioner Of Labor. as presi-
dent Of the Organization. The annual
elections Of the association viii be held
tomorrow evening.
The section OF Social and Economic
Science Of the association, Of which Mr..
Wright IS the retiring cha rman. has
in late years become one OF the most
important OF the ten embraced in the
organization. There has never vet
been a president OF the association
chosen from the ranks OF this section.
ami it, members believe that in Mr..
Wright they have a man whose ability
has been publicly recognized as the
highest by the President or the United
States in appointing him a member
Of the coal strike commission.
This feeling has also spread among
the members Of the association a,
large. and there seems to be a general
belief in the various sections that not
only should the section on Social ard
Economic Science be represented by a
president OF the association. but that
Mr.. Wright would make an executive of
the highest type.
The election OF the officers Of the as
sociation VIII be made. under the rules
governing the organization, by a gen

''AMERICAN TRADE HAS
REACHED ITS SUMMIT"

Science today. Frederic Emory. chief
o. the Bureau Of Foreign Commerce,
Department Of State. was it's author
Mr.. Emory said that the consular SER
vice Of the United States was superior
TO .hat Of all other powers as a trade
agency. and expressed the opinion that
this had been achieved by selecting as
cur consular officers business men in
stead of those possessing social qualh-
cations alone.
He argued that it would be a most
unwise step. in the reorganization Of
the consular service, to revert to the
old plan Of selecting our representatives
on account Of any other qualification
than business acumen, a most essential
factor in these times of sharp compe-
tition among the great producing
countries.
Amors the numerous papers read yes
terday afternoon before the section on
Social and Economic Science. was one
by Judge Martin A. Knapp chairman OF
;he Interstate Commerce Commission. on
Judge Knapp discussed the proposition
thar. under the control Of Congress. all
corporations should be compelled to
make public their origin and operations
so that 1t might be seen how the amount
OF money originally paid in or the value
OF the assets at any time owned com
pared with the par value OF all stocks
and bonds Issued, He yentured to doubt
the sOUndness OF the argument that
watering OF stock could be prevented by
publicity. Il was improved, he held. that
the excessive Issue Of corporate securl-
ties was a source OF such danger as 10
excite public alarm. and he said he was
yet 10 be convinced that publicity would
not be harmful exercise Of public au-
thorltv
Il maintain that the stockholder as
such is not benefited BY corporate pub
licity. and would be harmful rather than
helped by its enforcement" said he.
Organization.
Judge Kuapp's paper was followed by
one on The Necessity Of Organization
Among Employers" by David NJ Parry.
president Of the National Association OF
Manufacturers. Mr.. Parry viewed the
corporation problem from the employer s
point Of view His paper was read by
Frank II. Hitchcock. secretary OF the
section.
The crying need Of the world today. d"
said he, is organization. The workers
OF the land have been attempting to
secure to advantages OF organization for
the last seventy-fve years. The time
mas come now when employers must
turn their attention In the same direc-
tion. that they may protect themselves
irom misdirected organization among
their employees and also TO secure otb[r

ganized effort"
