TO UTILIZE FREE ALCOHOL.

- NTERPRlSlNG concerns are al
r. ready bestirFing themselves In the
| work Of developing equipment
with which cheaper alcohol may
be put 10 use when it becomes available
at the beginning OF the coming year.
An Iowa manufacturing concern is ex-
perimenting with alcohol in place OF
gasoline for the production OF gas and
securing most gratifying results. A
representative OF the concern IN Chi
cago yesterday declared that they have
found II possible 10 produce loco feet
Of Illuminating gas from two and one.
half TO three gallons OF alcohol and
that a light equipped with mantle from
this gas produces q 100 candle-power
light as against A. cande-poWer light
from the manufactured gas that Is pro-
yided 10 consumers Of gas IN Chica-
go.
These manufacturers figure that the
first cost OF producing gas in Chicago
from materials now In use Is 80 to 81
cents per thousand to produce q gas
providing less than a fifty candle
power light when the mantle Is used.
His concern figures, therefore. that
when alcohol may have been produced

Immediately become r material much

Denies Reports Of
ANY NEW
Ocean Currents

Captain Kelly, Of the bark George
Curtis. which. arrived yesterday from
San Francisco, is Of the opinion that
there Is nothing In the stories regard
ing new ocean currents In the Pacific.
In our voyage Of fifteen days from
San Francisco" he said, I'VE encount.
cred no currents whatever. Reports
of new currents arising from the Val
paraiso earthquake. or from any other
cause, I believe are utterly without
foundation and originated only In the
attempt Of certain unfortunate CON-
manders to escape blame for accidents
to their vessels. There is no reason to
believe that an earthquake could have
the effect Of forming any new per-
manent currents
The George Curtis Is the vessel which
collided with the four-masted schoon-
er Wndora as she was coming out OF
the Golden Gate at the time OF the San
Francisco earthquake. She sustained
damages to the extent of about $4,000
and Captain Kelly had his leg broken
Suit for damages was entered. and the
case was tried while the George Curtis
was at San Francisco this last time
when Captain Kelly sailed no deci-
sion had been made public In the mat
ter.
The bark brought to Honolulu this
voyage a general cargo OF about 5000
tons. including $500 pounds Of gun
powder. She will leave for the Coast
In about three weeks with sugar. Cap
tain Kelly brought down with him sew.
en- passengers who report that the
voyage was exceptionally fine. The
weather experienced was perfect and
everybody had good time. They say
they couldn't help II with Captain KEEL
