TO BELL GAS BY THE FOUND
Blaugas. Invention of German, Puts
 Light in All dark Places


 NEW YORK, Dec. 1.--" Give me two pounds of gas. Folks complain it s get ting kind of dark at our house. 7
 Thus the farmer of the near future, addressing the bewhiskered corner groc. CT, who will hand little iron cylinder over the counter and write the amount in the customer s red-covered charge book.
 And that evening the farmhouse will blaze once more like the ballroom of a summer resort hotel or sideshow at Coney Island. Light, plenty of light, for the common and isolated people is not a distant dream, but fact already achieved with commercial success in Germany, and waiting the first favor able opportunity to come across the pond.
 Blaugas, the invention of the chemist Hermann Blau, win make any suburban ite, lantern lecturer, camper or travel ing professor of phrenology quite inde- penednt of gas trust and oil trust, not to mention the wayward apparitions of the moon. Just get twenty-two pound sylinder of liquid gas, six inches in di- ameter and three feet long. and you will have more than enough superbrilliant illumination to last four months.
 A small portable outfit the size of grip will furnish a fifty-candle. power light for three and half hours a day for fortnight. It is said to be abso- lutely safe aboard ship or train. You could use it adyantageously in the sub way.
 This gas, which is mostly liquefied under pressure of l,500 pounds to the square inch, is not poisonous or explosL i've. It costs slightly more than met ropolitan gas, but the Public Service commission may have say on that. Anyhow it beats electricity, acetylene, tallow candles and kerosene. It can be piped through copper tube as small as telegraph wire. It burns right side up or upside down in a mantle burner. giving an incandescent white glow. A number of suburbanites could with lit. tie expense have common plant for the distribution of the great light giv- CT, or each one could pipe his house sep arately, taking care not to inform the plumbers union which might object to the simplicity of the installation.
 MT. Blaugas-that is MT. Blau. the inventor--is praised by scientists be- canuse he ingeniously constructed his gas by reversal of the usual gassy process, distilling oil at low tempera- ture and mixing in gases the trust has no use for.

SAN BUAN MINE
 RESUMES N0AK
CONTRACT LET TO SINK SHAFT TO GREATER DEPTH-A sAFrORD PROPERTY THAT PROMISES wELL-sTART WORK SOON.

SAFFORD, December 5.--The San Juan mines started up again on Mon. day, when force of men went to work ovcrhauling the machinery and pump preparatory to sinking the new shaft.
 contract was signed last Saturday by Joseph Everman, contractor, and John F. Weber, agent, representing the Gila Valley Copper company MT. Ever. man will sink the first fifty feet in the new shaft below the 230-foot level. When this has been accomplished the company will continue the work sink. ing the shaft until the vein is cut.
 At the 230-foot le'fel crosscut en. countered the vein seventy.five feet from the shaft. At this point the vein was about eight feet wide, and the yeio matter was soft. The ore was sa,. phide.
 In the l30-foot lev,l the vein shows for width of forty-dve feet all good milling ore, carrying great deal of native copper Before the slump in copper the ore from tfis point was mil. cd and produced concentrates assay. ing 40 per cent copper. three ounces sil. yer and gold enough t, pay the freight.
 1t is expected tha. soon after the new year development work will again be started on the ore bodies now ex- posed, and large supply of ore will be secured for the mill.
 Th. L l, from the foothills to the San Juan mine, distance of several miles. The old road was completel., destroyed last summer by clondburst making new road following the hills to the left and south of the property necessary.
 The pipe line from San Juan to Wal. nut Spring, from which the company gets the water supply for the camp, was also destroyed for about A mile near the spring by the big flood last sum. mer, but has been ,epaired, new pipe put in place, and the well cleaned out. At Walnut Spring the company has a pumping plant, and the water is now being pumped to the reservoir and water tank at the San Juan.
 A good flow of water was secured at the 230-foot level, and it is expected that sufficient water will be secured when the new shaft reaches depth of 800 feet to supply the mill and keep it in operation permanently.
 The prospects are very favorable that the San Juan mine will continue in op- eration right along and a big camp opened up.

Two new bond issues, aggregating $70,000,000, are announced. The Amer ican Telephone & Telegraph company has sold $50,000,000 per cent conver- tibles to the banking syndicate which took $l00,000,000 of the same class of bonds in 1906, while last night it was learned that the directors of the United States Rubber company propose ta issue $2O,O00,000 ten-year 6 per cent collater al trust sinking fund bonds. Yesterday bids were to have been opened for $30.. 100000 Panama bonds, while the Erie has asked permission to sell similar amount. The total amount of bonds and notes issued and about to be issued has reached almost $200,Q00,000 in two weeks. So plentiful is money, however, that interest rates, instead of showing increased frmness, were easier.
 II. c. Prick is believed to be the largest speeulator in stocks at this moment. He and William Rockefeller are understood to be working hand in hand. It will be recalsed that MT. i'Sh was bauiy CTusneu uurlng the panic-so badly, indeed, that his friends state he lost many pounds in weight, as well as many millions of dollars, a loss that had most depressing effect upon Pittsburg It is understood, how. ever. that Mir. Prick joined forces with 26 Broadway to accumulate stocks early this year, and that, with the as. sistanee of Mir. Hartman and infuen. tial banking interests, they succeeded first in loading up at attractive prices and then, in distributing large pro. portion of their holdings during the public enthusiasm just before and fol. lowing the election. The process of dis. tribution has not been completed, but it IS said that this group is in favor of temporary Hull in speculation so as to encourage fresh buying by European and home investors when the recovery in general business has become more pronouneed.-New York Journal of Commerce.

GRAIN

CHICAGO, December 5.-Bullish en- thusiasm was almost entirely lacking !n the wheat pit today, sentiment among the pit traders, generally, being rather bearish. The weather bureau predicted rain or snow, for the greater part of the winter wheat belt, and this forecast was mainly responsible for the leavy tone which prevailed.
 There was almost no demand for cash wheat, and prices were steady. The market closed very steady, with prices shade lower to shade higher. De esnber closed at 105 3-S to l05 1-2, and Nay at ll0 5-S to l103-4.
 Corn was quiet. The demand for corn here was slow. The market closed easy, IS to IA lower than yesterdays close. December closed at 6l l-2 to 6l 5-s, and May at 63 to 63 IS.
