GLOBE PROVES IV SUCCESS
UFK SAVER IS TURNED LOSE IN
, ROl'OH SEA. AND SAILS
TO SHORE.
NEW YORK. Nov. 19. Another test
has been riven the life saving globe
Invention tor use in shipwrecks by
Captain Donvig, a Norwegian, says
Herald dispatch from London. The
oblect of this test was to ascertain
how the craft would behave In heavy
seas. ;
While the wares were running- ex
tremely high and a sea was running in
which, It was declared, no lifeboat
could live, the globe was towed by a
tug from Dover harbor into the chan
net.
In order that the apparatus should
be as near as possible In the same con
dittos as It would be if used in case ot
a. shiDwrecfc, it was weighted with
sand bags, MfbJch, with four men who
were in the globe, made the weight
eouivalent to that of 20 men and 39
days' provisions.
The globe, without its crew, was
first towed out to sea between Dover
and the south foreland. The strong
wind raised terrific seas. Several times
the lug was caught in the trough and
her decks were completely swept, so
that it waa necessary to batten down
All the hatch way a But the globe rode
over the waves like a cork. Finally it
was towed Into quiet water, where
Captain Donvig, accompanied by three
Dover seamen went aboard. They
fastened the manhole and the globe
was again towed to sea. When the
full force of the wind and seas was
exoerienced. Captain Donvig signalled
throush the manhole to cast off the
towrope.
The globe, left to itself, bobbed about
in the heavy seas, but showed no in
clination to roll over.
After tossing about for 10 or 15 min
utesCaptain Donvig and one of the
sailors emerged from the manhole, and,
lashing themselves on the outside of
hte Klobe, set a small sail which they
nulled through the manhole with them.
The air funnel was used as a mast
and the queer craft was navigated
back to harbor, a distance of several
mile.

IDLERS IN ENGLAND.'
MIDLAND TOWNS CANNOT COM
FETE WITH AMERICAN
MADE GOODS. .
NEW YORK, Nov. 19. While the
talk about the American invasion has
ceased In the press, there Is. cables the
London correspondent of the Tribune
no lack of evidence of active eompe
tition in many lines of manufacture.
The provincial hotels are filled with
American commercial travelers and
Cunts of manufacturing firms, and
there is a large Increase in the number
t branch houses established for per
manent operations In the United King
dom. The results of this destructive
competition sre noticeable In the mid
land towns, like Northampton and
tioealer. which have been dependent
for their prosperity upon the boot und
shoe trade. There has been a marked
decline In the production tor both the
home and froetgn trade. The streets
of those towns are filled with Idlers,
and the shoemakers' wages are falling.
Leicester Is more fortunate than
Northampton, since it has the hosiery
industry, which has not been seriously
, affected by the production abroad, but
ployment. Northampton is in a sorry
ollght from the shrinkage of business.
j The fortunes of those towns might
have been retrieved If the shoe manu
factories with labor saving appliances.
They neglected those matters, how
ever, and American boots and shoes
are now sold In England at prices that
cannot he met, either at Leicester or
' NorthaniDton.
