chsapens Cost Of LIQUID Air.

A Dane named Knudson is credited
with discovering means Of producing
liquid air at the cost of no more than
one-sixth the usual price, and it is said
that his process, which is mechanical
rather than chemical. will ultimately
put liquid air on the market at not
more than about two cents a gallon.
The same invention makes it possible
to sell oxygen at cent a cubic foot,
which promises to bring it into rather
wide industrial use.

The China seas used to swarm with

Modern civilization, aided by good

to disappear. There are a few left,

General Dessimo said he expected

not so much a rising similar to the
Boxer outbreak, as a general patriotic
movement to free China from foreign
restrictions. Within the last two years
there has been growing movement to
secure China for the Chinese without
foreign interference and before he left
Shanghai this movement was assumin &
an alarming phase.
The Russian evacuation of Man
churia. he said, was proceeding salts
factorily and affairs were peaceful in
Manchuria and Siberia, the reported
rioting at Harbin and Vladivostok be-
ing mainly due to Socialist propaganda,
and having been settled. Reports OF
brigandage in Manchuria and North
China were being circulates, he said,
by the Japanese in order to furnish
excuse for their delay in leaving Man
churia.
