New York Coffee. -
New York. Dec. 6.--The market for cof-
fee futures opened at decline Of 10
or realizing after yesterdays advance.
The official cables from Brazil seemed
more unsettling than otherwise as the
decline in milreis prices was accom-
panied by an advance in the rate of Rio
exchange on London, but domestic trade
interests were buyers on the decline here
and prices rallied later in the morning
with March selling up from 1900 to
1890.
Apprehensions that imports would be
restricted by scarcity of ocean freight
room were factor on the advance. The
market closed to points net higher.

SAYS STRIKE Is MISTAKE.
Gompers Thinks Steel Strikers Have
walked Into q Trap.

WASHINGTON. Sept. 25.-Grave
apprehension over the steel strike is APP
parent about the headquarters of the
American federation of labor here.
Some of the leaders have openly ex-
pressed doubt as to the wisdom of the
course taken by the steel workers, while
others declare it serious mistake.
Samuel Gompers, president of the
federation. considers the strike at this
time a great mistake on the part OF
labor, according to a labor leader close
TO Mr.. Gompers. This informant said
Mr. Gompers has declared that the
strikers have walked into a trap sci
by capital and that it is going to be
hard TO get out of it.
Mr.. Gompers urged the steel workers
to remain at work and await the out
come of the Presidents Industrial con
ference. He believes that capita
throughout the country has put it VI
to the steel industry to wage wa
against labor, and the steel trust gladl,
accepted the commission.
The federation president is quoted a
| having said that this was the most in
opportune time for a strike of any sort
| He fears its effect on other industrie
and considers the action most unfol
| tunate.

on these highways each day and that
traffic had increased about As per cent a
year during the four years in which the
count was made.
Here is vivid demonstration of
the immense benefit good roads mean
in saving of money. If one county in
one state can effect a saving of over
seven and one-half million dollars a
year, imagine the immense saving in
every county not only in one state,
but in all forty-eight states in the
Union! Even the low average of thirty
counties for each state would give us a
above yearly saving would make a total
of $10,952. 100000 a sum over one-third
the total cost of Americas participation

line as q motor fuel. It's drawbacks
include violent explosiveness when
mixed with compressed air in the car
buretor and corrosion or clogging OF
the motor by SCOT and acids of COM
bustion.
Remedies are dilution of the acct
ylene and an extra air supply to in
sure burning all carbon. H. Gross
mann reports that the explosion of
even the diluted freshly generated
acetylene is too sudden. but that acct
ylene from a solution in acetone
carried under pressure in steel cylin-
ders, is safer, and is ready for the in
slant starting of the motor until the
cylinder is practically emptied. The
cylinders, however, are not only heavy
and expensive, but are not generally
obtainable. A large one for a motor
car gave a run of seventy-five miles
from one charging.
.Diluents included alcohol. gasoline
light tar oils, naphthalene. water etc.
and the use of at least to per cen;
was necessary. Good results were
given by 20 per cent OF an equal mix
ture of light tar oil and alcohol. A
motor boat was run six or eight hours
daily for one month and remained in
good condition, although the acety-
lene was from a common generator
with no special publication.
