No Need to watch Amer;c,

Orders were issued yesterday to close
the Halifax dockyard, and 1t 500 en-
ployes were given one weeks notice of
dismissal. This is said to be In line
with the new plans for reorganizins
the British navy, which change the
system under which a fleet has had It's
headquarters at Halifax or Bermuda,
substituting for this fleet a large flying
squadron in touch with other waters,
and leaving only two or three British
ships on this station. 1t is said that
the Ariadne Will be withdrawn. not to
be replaced.
The dockyard Is one Of the most ex-
tensive properties held by the imperial
Government in Halifax. Large work
shops have been erected. and many
ships Of the British navy have been re-
paired there. Year after year improve
ments have been made, and almost
any kind Of work can be done there
upon short notice.
1t Is stated that the Admiralty House
will be disused or sold for private pur-
poses, and that perhaps the Naval
Hospital will no longer be required. II
is probable that the ground vacated by
the closing of the works will pass to
the control of the Intercolonial Rail-
way, which is Handicapped for room

KINDS OF GLASSWARE
MADE UNBREAKABLE
Remarkable Product of German
Manufacturer Now Put on the
Market.
A report made some time ago by

A report made some time ago by
United States Consul McNally at
Liege, Belgium. Of the unbreakable
glassware made by a firm in that city
has attracted world wide attention,
and it has been necessary for that gen.
tleman to make supplementary report
on the matter. covering the inquiries
which have reached him from all parts
of the globe. 1t is rather surprising
that a thing which should command
such a general interest could have been
carried on SO long without being dis
covered, for this particular industry
has thrived in a small way for twenty
five years. The reason that it is not
better known Is probably because Of the
increased cost of this material. but 1t
is contended that, while the first cost
is greater than that of ordinary glass
ware. it is in the end much cheaper, as
it is almost everlasting.
The hardening process is the inven
ton of a Frenchman, A. de la Bastie.
Hardened glass presents such difficult
ties of manufacture that only simple
objects can be produced with such
economy that the price is not an OBJ
stacle to their sale.
The consequence is that, with the ex-
ception Of a few unimportant special-
ties, only two articles are manufac-
tured at the present time. These are
dishes of agatine and tumblers of hard
ened glass,
The term "unbreakable glass is an
exaggeration, but there have been
plates of this agatine ware hurled from
one end of large storeroom to the
other over a cement floor without dam
age. This experiment was repeated
several times without the slightest In
dication OF cracking or chipping. But
the article which on account of its form
Is the most convenient to manufacture
and which has no rival in it's power Of
resistance Is the tumbler, in all its
forms and shapes. as used daily by
millions Of persons in cafes. hotels and
barrooms.

BRITISH TIN INDUSTRY
SHOWS RECORD INCREASE
Broker Say That Exports for 1904
Exceed Any for Nine Years
Past


An interesting contribution to the
fiscal controversy is given by firm Of
well-known tin plate brokers in their
report on the industry for last year.
British exports, these brokers state,
show a record increase over 1903 and,
although the total quantity was not
itself record, it is higher than 1t has
been for nine years.
Great Britain's largest customer took
40 per cent more than in 1903. Prices
rose steadily during the year The
works now are in full swing and 1905
shows signs of being another good year.
This Improvement, il is observed
may in sense be said to date from
the adoption of tie Mckinley tariff IN
America in 1896. The Welsh tin plate
manufacturers at the time feared the
tariff would kill their trade, but in
stead it proved blessing in disguise.
The makers realized that if their
trade was to survive they must take
their coats off, they must cheaDen the
cost of manufacture and develop new
markets. To do that raw materials at
the lowest possible price were neces-
sary and fortunately the fiscal system
of Great Britain gave to the makers
opportunities in this respect superior to
those of any other country. Thus eight
years of hard work has brought it's re-
ward and the British tin plate trade is
in sounder position than it ever has
been before.-New York Herald.

LOANS SHOW
AN INCREASE
Moderate Loss of Cash Also
Apparent in the New
York Bank Statement
DEPOSITS MAKE GAIN
Treasury Operations Prevent
What Otherwise Would
Have Been Favorable Week

NEW YORK, May 1S.-The Financier
says: The features Of the official state
ment Of the New York Associated
Banks this week were an increase, in
stead Of the looked-for contraction in
loans; a moderate loss of cash; an in
crease in deposits and consequently in
the reserve requirements and a de-
crease in the surplus reserve very
nearly corresponding in amount with
the previous weeks gain in this item.
The increase in loans was chiefly due
to syndicate operations. The require
ments of speculation on the Stock Ex-
change were much too small, because
of general market depression, to ac-
count for any augmentation in bor-
rowing.
The loss in cash resulted almost
wholly from sub-treasury operations
incident to the surrender Of public
funds in anticipation of the maturity
on Monday of this week of the first
installment, amounting to fourteen and
Il quarter millions of the call issued on
April for s29. 100000 Of Government de-
posits. Had 1T not been for these treas
ury operations the banks would have
shown a gain in cash as result of the
interbank movement and as a result Of
the receipts Of new gold represented by
assay office checks. The statement Of
averages Of the Clearing house banks
of this city for the week shows:

Money Talks There roo.

An important piece of news cabled
from Europe is that "the engagement
between Eric Chaplin and Miss Gladys
Wilson is at an end. owing to a dis
agreement about marriage settle
ments-" The Importance to this
country does not lie in the personality
of the two hearts which have just
been unsynchronized, but in the fact
that this operation resulted from a
disagreement as to the amount of
money that should be settled by some
body on one of the two parties. 1t
is important because the people-the
society and literary people-in the
country where this incident Of social
life occurred are in state OF peren-
nial disgust at the fondness Of Ameri-
cans for money; the application OF
financial standards to everything in
this sordid cy.-Philadelphia

LONG PROVES
CLEVER PLAYER

League championship resulted In a d.

by winning the tournament for No.
players. The tournament for No. 2
players was won by Marius Hotchkiss
Of Lick.
Both tournaments were played on the
California Club courts. Six schools
were represented. three from each side
of the bay. The Alameda County repre-
sentatives were completely outclassed,
and failed to win set. Powell Of
Berkeley High played two close sets
with H. Long, but the latter did not let
himself out
The contestants in the finals of both
events were from Lowell and Lick.
Lowell was represented by the Long
brothers, who won the doubles cham
pionship two weeks ago. The players
from Lick were Gabriel and Hotchkiss.
In the finals Of the second tournament
M. Long was beaten in straight sets by
Hotchkiss
The final match was by far the best
of the day Harold Gabriel and H
Long were the contestants. Young Ga
briel. who is the clevereSt player In the
city for his years, found Long trife
too strong for him. Gabriel, IS usual,
started with rush and annexed the
first set by a GA score. Long showed
TO advantage in the second set, which
ne won with the loss Of but one game.
The third set was the turning point of
the match and by far the closest Of the
four. Long won it by score of S-6.
The nearest Gabriel came to winning 1t
was 5-5 and 400, but Long ran out the
set. Gabriel seemed discouraged after
losing the third set, and made poor
showing In the fourth, which went to
Long, 81.

Popularity of barefoot Sandal.

Contrary to all expectations. the
barefoot sandal Is here to stay. and
thousands Of pairs are daily being made
up for next season. It was the general
opinion last season, when 30 many Of
them were worn, that the sale must
have reached its climax, but more than
twice as many have been already sold
than were produced all last season.
The barefoot sandal Is here to stay.
Not only are they being made for the
little ones. but many adults are buy
ing them for house slippers. because
of their wearing qualities.
A salesman, just returned from his
Western trip, says out West there is as
much demand for sandals as East and
South. While the barefoot sandal was
originally intended to be worn at the
seashore and summer resorts. this
salesman remarked that there were
hundreds of children out West who
never saw the seashore that wore bare
foot sandals, being to them the ideal
comfort and health shoe.-Shoe Retail

To Increase Ships Speed.

PROFESSOR Carlo del LungO, demOn-
strator in physics at the Royal Lycee
Of Spezzia. has brought out an inven-
ton upon which great hopes are based
for accelerating the speed of ships.
His invention diminishes the density
of surrounding water by means of
pumped air. 1t can be applied to all
ships, no matter how they are con-
structed. but 1t can be carried to a still
higher degree by some modification in
the form of the vessel.
The effect of the pumped air bears
some analogy to the fabrication of ma
chinery by oil. and the professor styles
his invention the pneumatic lubrica-
ton of the hulls of ships. Satisfac-
tory tests have been made with ships
at Leghorn. and others on a more ex-
tSnsfve scale are to take place. in Eng
land shortly.-N. Y. Commercial.
