den the hearts OF tk9se who have any
canned goods on hand. The persistent
effort of the jobbers to hold down prices
has had bat temporary effect, and now
that the stock on hand has been ex-
hausted, they are compelled to get in the
market to furnish the requirements of tbs
trade. For the past month there had
been but few transactions. Beginning
with the middle of last week, however.
buying becamefreer and prices soon went
up. From sluggish 9o-cent market, it
is hard today to get any standard dollar
goods. This condition of affairs is the
legitimate result of the small pack of
1905, and the successful stand made by
those WHO were able to hold their
goods. This is partially accounted for
from the fact that only those who are
financially strong packed goods the past
season. 1t is predicted that the market
will reach 81 Is before the first of March
Corn still continues sluggish, there being
an over-production for the ordinary
needs of the trade.

OIL ON TROUBLED WATERS.
Brazilian Admira1's Device For
Calming the Ocean.

Brazilian Admiral's Device Fol
Calming the Ocean.
While the process Of quieting the
troubled waters by scattering oil OF
the surface has been known and prac.
ticed for long time, there are con-
stantly new means being devised for
the application of the oil, says the Chi.
cago Chronicle The latest thing of
this character is the bottle gun, which
has been invented by Vice Admiral
Guimares of the Brazilian navy, who
proposes to scatter oil on the water
ahead of the boat by it's means.
The gun is a handy little piece
mounted on pivot carriage, which is
bolted down to the deck, so that there
is no recoil. 1t is made Of bronze, but
the chamber at the breech which con.
tains the propelling charge is of steel
The charge, in brass central fire cyl
inder, is loaded into the gun from the
rear, as it is a breechlOading piece.

ed with sawdust STEPPED in oil, is en-.
tered at the muzZle and rammed home.
The advantage of this is obvious since
there would never be any difficulty in
providing supply Of these fragile pro-
jectiles.
When the gun is discharged the bot
tie is of course broken and, with it's
contents, scattered over the water for
a considerable distance. If fired ahead,
to form a smooth pathway for the ad-
vancing vessel, it requires to be dis
charged every five minutes, but if the
vessel is stationary or lying to one
round every twenty minutes is said to
be sufficient.
