the opening in the cotton market to-
day, first prices being 3 points lower

for late months, based on reports Of

carly buyers. while offerings came prin-
Cipaly from New Orleans. where large
tenders are expected on Saturday.

Tunnel pigs Itself

In the Simplon tunnel under the
Alps. which is by far the greatest
tunnel in the world, the quantity of
water flowing out of the southern end
from the many veins encountered in
the heart of the mountain amounted
to $4,000 gallons minute, and fur
nished sufficient power to compress
the air by which the drills were
worked. and to refrigerate the tiInnel.
The necessity for refrigeration may
be judged from the fact that the heat
in the deeper parts of The tunnel rose
as high as. lao degrees Fahrenheit
when not artiicially reduced.
