Commercial Review

R. c. Dun & Co.'S weekly Review of
Trade" says:
Activity broadens in commercial chan
nels and confidence expands because o.
the many evidences of conservatism
Business is brisk and improving, yet
there is no disposition to start boom
either in commodities or securities.
Manufacturers receive liberal orders
ior remote deliveries, many dealers hav-
.ng covered spring requirements, and
shipping departments are forwarding as
freely as traffic facilities will permit.
Current retail trade is not equaling ex-
,ectations, but this is attributed to mild
AUTUMN weather, and preparations foi
the future are undiminished.
Especially good news is received IRON
he iron and steel centers, output OF mills
md furnaces increasing without reliev-
ng the pressure for quick delivery, par
icularly in structural and railway de-
,artments.
Wages were voluntarily increased at
print cloth mills, and scarcely any labor
disputes are noted.
Much complaint is heard regarding
'reight blockadcs, several contracts being
accepted subject to delay in transit, which
S seriously retarding grain exports.
Nevertheless, railway earnings tor DC
'ober thus far show gain OF only 10
Der cent. compared with last years fig
ures.
Bradstreet's says:
Wheat, including flour, exports for the
week ending October 10, are 1881 ,4S2
bushels, against 2,774,462 last week,
LOOT, 46e this week last year, 4,265,oSo in

whole Town Charged Location.

We have been accustomed to hear
ing Of the bodily removal Of houses,
but it has been left for Russia to pro-
vide the spectacle Of whole town
of some 5000 Inhabitants changing its
location. This, however, is the case
Of Lepsinsk, town in the district OF
Semiretsche, in Russian Turan.
Twenty-Five years ago Lepsinsk was
founded on land provided for the pur-
pose by the governor general Of the
province. This land had, however,
formerly belonged to the Semiretsche
horde Of Cossacks, who strongly OBJ
jected to the transfer. For twenty-five
years the dispute has continued, and
now at last the Inhabitants OF Lep-
sinsk, hearing of suitable site
thirty-fve kilometres to the northwest
of their present quarters, have decid-
ed to remove thither in body, taking
their possessions and as much OF their
habitations as possible along with
them.

GAS TO TAKE PLACE OF COAL.
Seems Likely to Come Into General
Use on Shipboard,

seems Likely TO Come into General
Use on Shipboard.
II vessel propelled by steam
power is called steamer" should
a vessel in which the motive power is
gas be called a "gasser"? The query
is prompted by the possibility that in
the not far distant future marine pro-
pulsion will be largely effected by
means Of explosion engines. whose
fuel will be gas generated on board.
For stationary purposes plants of this
description have already been erected
on large scale. and more than one
firm of engineers is said to be en-
gagged in perfecting combined plant
consisting of engine and gas generator
which shall be lighter and occupy less
space than the present combination
of steam boilers and engine, power
for power. The gas used is known
as producer gas, and is to all intents
and purposes steam or water vapor
passed through incandescent coke in
a special form of furnace. The re-
sultant gas is combination of carbon
monoxide. hydrogen and nitrogen.
Utilizing the fuel in this manner is
claimed to effect very appreciate
economy as compared with burning it
under a boiler to generate steam. In
deed it has been estimated that one
pound Of fuel will thus go as far as
three pounds in the latter method.
This on long voyage not only means
the reduction of the coal bill, but also
a corresponding increase in cargo
space or passenger accommodation.
