ports OF those staples. viii tend TO
discourage gold shipments In spite OF
Panama canal payments, which are
likely to be less than once antlcipat
ed. Some disturbance may be ex-I
pected, as usual, in connection with
the April settlements, but this Is only
temporary. The most serious factor
in the money market is, OF course,
the war between Russia and Japan
and the PROBABILITY OF q war loan BY
either OF the powers involved. Meth.
II Japanese nor Russian bonds are
likely TO be taken 70 any amount IN

p~recipitate selling Of Americans in

ing. With the approach Of milder
weather traffic Is resuming normal
volume, and earnings continue, as a
rule, to show satisfactory gains, while
in some instances the economies ex-
pected from recent improvements are
already Undertaking.. The control-
ling element, however, in the stock
market Just now Is the readjustment
of relations between the ~transcontin-
entail lines, following the disruption Of
the merger plans by the supreme
court. Eventually harmony must ex
list between these powerful rivals,
but upon what basis Is certainly not
yet ascertained. Adjusting the bal
ance of power under the new condi,
lions Is an exceedingly delicate op-
Grafton; and while there Is little
chance Of a repetition OF the May
panic OF 1901, still there is the pos
sibiIity of harmony being deferred un'
til d test OF strength decides the rela.
tive positions Of rival interests.
Thursdays sudden decline In Union
Pacific and other merger shares, fol

vance. was exceedingly significant;
and the market is likely to be subject
To other fluctuations before a settle
ment is reached. Self-protection
nay self-existence, must compel a liyt
and let live policy; and now that
there Is no resort except. a mutua'
respect for each others interests
good faith will be more necessary
than ever. Since the absence OF per
feet harmony as to the plan OF thu
Northern Securities liquidation Is thu
cause of the present reaction, II fol
lows that a. final settlement OF th'
difficulties which exist will be accom-
panied by 4 sharp recovery, Mean
while a more or less unsettled marke

MAKING OF OXYGEN.
Interesting Process known to Bat
Few Professional Men ana no
Ordinary NOrtaIS.

The manufacture of oxygen-or more
properly its separation from the atmos-
phere we breathe-is an intensely in
terestng process nown to but few
professional men and scarcely known
at all by the ordinary mortal, says a
scientific paper A plaat for the manu-
facture of oxygen to he used in charg-
ing its distilled water was put ia opera
Ion recently at an ice plant N Los An
geles, Cal
Oxygenated water is now being pre-
scribed by physicians in certain dis
eases, and hence a cheap and simple
method Of separating the oxygen in the
atmosphere becomes a matter Of i'm
portance. The process employed oy the
Los Angeles company is based on the
principle that a certain chemical COM
pound-manganat of soda--readily
parts with the oxygen it contains when
subjected TO the action OF jet OF
steam. A blast of air on the residuum
reforms it into manganate O. soda. this
chemical possessing the peculiar prop
erty Of absorbing oxygen from the at
mosphere, parting with it when ex-
posed to steam and being reformed
again upon exposure 10 the air. The
process may be continued indefinitely.
when the ingredients are placed in the
retort and proper connections for air
and steam made. No more chemicals
are required. 1t may be likened to dip
ping a sponge in water. squeezing it
dry, and then repeating the operation
indefinitely
Oxygen made by this process. It is
claimed, contains no gas other than oxy-
gen and no elements Of any descrip-
tion other than slight traces Of atmos-
pheric nitrogen. Hence it requires no
washing to free II from chlorine nor
any publication whatever. The product
Is oxygen-and nothing else. The
oxygen, direct from the retorts. IS
stored in gasometers. and then forced
into distilled water by means Of
TwitcheH carbonating machine. which
pumps the water and oxygen at the
same time. thoroughly agitating both
before bottling. The bottling is done
under z pressure Of 60 pounds.

REF FRIGERATOR
CONVERTED HIM
Hot Story With a
Cold Moral Well
Learned.

Last spring gentleman in this
town bought refrigerator from
one Of The big Chicago mail order
houses. Well, it was thirty days
before itwas shipped from the
place of mandatory in Michigan
and six weeks after ordered before
it reached bere. After it got here
it ate up ice like furnace-held
80 or rs pounds and that would
hardly ever last over Sunday. IL
just stayed awake nights and done
overtime in its efforts to pay for
the ice plant in one year
Winter finally cams, howsvsr.
and coal mans bill looks Ike Is
cents with hole 10 it, compared
with those ice books stubs whicn
are hanging around that refrigera-
Tor.
But the "last straw" came ths
other day (and il let the story out
to the reporter) when the Chicago
house asked Tor 'testimoniaI"
regarding that refrigerator trade.
They surely got one, and II u
don't burn its way out of the mail
sack it will be shot enough for
you" and then some.
One thing the transaction has
done: it has made one more home

GROWTH OF INSANITY.
In the Large Cities 1t Is Increasing
and Experts Demand a
Change.

What change can be made in city life
o stop its enormous production of in
sanity, yearly increasing?
Here is a question which is yet to be
solved, says the New York World. The
medical fraternity is at a loss for a gem
sral remedy; puzzled to find means of
overcoming the baneful effects of a
city's activity on the general medical
condition.
London produces 20 lunatics a week
md New York is almost as bad, and its
Increase is greater proporionately. Ex-
perts say that if it were not for the fact
that nature steps in and generally re-
fuses to grant children after the fourth
Or fifth generation conditions would be
ar worse than they are.
'The outlook for the future is not

nervous tension of city life
So complicated is the enviornment Of
those who live in great towns, so many
and so varied are the calls upon the
ard upon their effort-mak-
ing powers, that their mental machin-
cry is apt to become more complex, its
parts require more construction and ad-
justment, and the whole machine is
more apt to get out of gear and to suffer
arrangement than in the more primi-
tive and less emotional life Of even half
a century ago. It is not overwork that
IS the determining cause of the disturb
ance or mental equilibrium, but carking
care, worry and anxiety
To the rich insanity is brought by in
iulgence in sensuous luxuries. To the
poor. who are at the msrcs of every

tances spell Indifferent nutrition, over
