BLOOKINO THE GAME OF WAR.
After smokeless, powder for soldiers:
now comes an effort to build smokeless
furnace for warships. If the government
authorities are successful In this, a war
ship, or a whole squadron of ships, may
be able to make a descent upon an ene
my' coast before their presence is sus
pected. As the element of surprise is an Impor
tant one In warfare, the absence of the
telltale imoke from the smokestacks of a
hostile fleet will be a decided gain to the
attacking party, and a corresponding dis
advantage to the party attacked.
The trick, It I believed, will be accom
plished by means of down-draft furnaces
with which the navy department Is ex
perimenting, and an actual trial will soon
be made at the navy yard In Brooklyn.
The fire In these furnaces, Instead of
burning upward, burns downward. The
process is thus described by the New
York Herald:
"The gaseous products of combustion,
together with the finely divided carbon
particles, which form the visible smoke,
are forced through the masses of coal
and are highly heated, after which they
meet the hot flames from the lower
grate. The water and the volatile mat
ter from the coal are decomposed Into
two gaoes hydrogen and carbonic oxide.
The hydrogen burns with Intense heat.
The carbonic oxIJe ga is Invisible, and
the result Is almost smokcloss combus
tion, It Is said."
Such a result would give an approach
ing fleet the advantage now lost, a the
moke of a steamer can be aeen at such
a distance, that Is, hour before the ves
sel Itself Is visible.
The ancient war galley the "swift
ships" aJluded to by the chroniclers of
those days, had an advantage over the
modern steamer In the respect of being
able to approach undetected, but they
cold not carry the same force or weight
of annaraent as the latter. If the new
experiment succeeds the latter day ships
wlH combine the advantage of the old
trlremesvand the modern steamship.
ii looks a If human Ingenuity was rap.
Idly making warfare so scientific and so
dangerous that It will result In a practi
cal era of peace. No people will want to
make war when It becomes so expensive
and so deadly,
With the "smoke of battle" gone, the
battle lusts! will not long remain.
Science I really blocking the game of
war, H would seem.
While there are hopes that there will
be very small, It any, gold exportation
the coming month, it would not be sur
prising If exportation were heavy. The
rate of exchange I now low; but that It
can remain at the present figure seems
doubtful, because, by reason of very
heavy Importations, English factories be
ing busy to meet the American demand
under the ne'w tariff, tho balance of trade
Is ta hvavlly against tho United States.
There are also large drafts in this coun
try to meet letter of credit held by
American traveling abroad. The cotton,
wheat and corn crops have not com
menced to flow abroad a yet, which
prevent the balance against the United
State from being overcome. Thus lit
would seem a If the present comparative
low rate of exchange was fictitious, and
that further exportation! of gold shouDd
be expected. There I considerable
ground (or satisfaction In the feeling
that the bank of the country will con
tinue to: some time, now that the syn
dicate has ceased maintaining the re
serve, to deposit gold with the treasury
In exchange for small notes. If exporta
tion of gold should continue heavy, the
banks would probably get tired of their
e;f-lmpoe4 task of depositing gold. In
view of these facts there la the continued
belief that bond Issue will be required
before congress assemble, it 1 pre
sumed that this issue will go to the Morgan-Belmont
syndicate Just as the former
one did, tut It 1 assumed that It will te
delayed until after the election. I
The San Francisco Call say editorially :
"Good new come from Santa Crus to
the effect that the report of the destruc
tion of the big tree grove Is untrue.
Meanwhile the fire In that region, besides
destroying thousand of acre of fine red
wood forests, has Invaded the orchard
section of Scott1 valley nl may do great
damage. Reports from Monterey county
show that the chaparral of the Gabllan
range s turning. Probably the Are was
deliberately set. Such a custom prevail
to a certain extent In chaparral region,
as the destruction of the old brush caustt
free growth of succulent shoots which
make excellent pasturage. Th! !s
dangerous practlcs and call foi- the
strictest kind of prohibitory ordinance.
If the countle are unable or unwl.ling
to take the action the state should In.
terfere. It 1 true that the setting of
(Ire would tie ono of the moat difficult
tMnr to detnot. but the Offdrln of gen.
eroiia rewards to reformers might have
a beneficial effect. More dangerous than
the practice of setting chaparral Are
Is the carelessness of hunter and camp
ing parties In the forests. This should
be made criminal 'by statute."
A dispatch from Washington says:
"Navy officials are looking forward with
Interest to the speed trial of the ram
Kathadln, which Is to take place on Oc
tober 3. The vessel was built according
to the design furnished' by Admiral
Ammen ten year ago. The contract
under which the boat wa built call for
17 knot an hour. At the private trials
which have already been had the speed
was not attained, but some Improvement
have since been made and the build
ers are hopeful that the contract require
ments win be met on the -official trial. It
Is recognized that the vessel promises
great power, but to turn a part of. the
power into speed is one of the proble-ns
in connection with the vessel. The vessel
was built at Bath, Maine, the contract
price being $930,000. The contractors have
made a change In the propellers of the
ram since the last trial, giving them
greater pitch. The next trial will conyist
of a two hours' trial off Cape Porpoise
southward towards the Isles of hoals.
Though the administration officials will
not admit It, the new congress will be
compelled to provide ways and means for
raising sufficient revenue to pay govern
ment expenditures and prevent the treas
ury deficit from Increasing, a situation
that cannot but be Injurious to the coun
try's business. The president will natu
rally be expected to make some recom
mendation to this line, and Republicans
will have to give considerable attention
to the recommendations that the presi
dent makes for the question of how rev
enue shall' te provided for the malnten
ance of the government cannot be met
as If it were a party question, for no
party has absolute control of the govern
ment at the present time. Whatever
means are adopted to provide revenue
must be of a compromise character.
Therefore, Mr. Cleveland's Ideas on this
subject will be watched for with anxiety,
as indicating what he might be willing
to sign or let become ,a law without his
signature.
The fleet of revenue cutters under com
mand of Capt. Hooper, which 1 making
a strict patrol of the Bering sea to pre-
vent pelagic sealing, has resulted in the
smallest Illegal catch of seals this sum
mer ever noted. This result is particu
larly pleasing to the revenue marine offi
cers, ibecause this Is the first season In
which no naval ships have been used to
patrol the Alaskan waters. It Appears,
therefore, that revenue cutters aro mora
efficient for patrol service, because so
much smaller and so much more easily
handled. The patrol has been under
taken by the United States alone and
Great Britain has kept hor hands off.
Capt. Hooper's fleet Is now on Its way
south from Alaska, and on the captain's
arrival at San Francisco he will make a
report of his summer's work. The rev
enue cutter' patrol cost the government
this year about $85,000, as against $200,
000 expended last year, when naval ships
were used.
Labor circles In Washington have been
stirred up lately By the arrest of a sub
contractor named MeVaug-h, who is en
gaged in making certain improvements to
the government printing olllco. McVaugh
Is under arrest for violating the eight
hour law by working his men more than
eight hours a day, and for having com
pelled them to sign agreements to do such
work for the compensation paid for
eight hourj' labor. It was In 1392 that
the latest step wa taken by congress
toward compelling the enforcement ot
the law, providing that eight hour should
be a day's work for government laborers.
In that year an amendment was passed
to the eight hour '.aw, which provided
that no laborer working under contract
and employed on government buildings
should work more than eight hours a
day. There is much Interest apparent
In the case and considerable watching
for developments.
The laudable efforts now being made In
some parts of the United States to Im
prove our poor highways have turned at
tention to the general excellence of those
In Europe. At such times It 1 occasion
ally remarked: "But we cannot hope for
many decades to attain thl same state
of perfection for these old world roads
were begun generation ago." This is a
mistake, a -writer In Llpplncott's asy.
In some continental'.' countries men ac.irce
ly In the decline of life can recall the
lime -when they were surrounded with
roads no better than those that abound
In s.t part of our Union. It may encour
age the American laborers in thl good
cau.ie to know this fact.
There will te an Elks' day at the
Portland Exposition, on which excursion

THE LATEST PLAN.
New York Tribune.
President Cleveland appears to be play
ing politic again. This unique and pawer-
ful 'Democratic statesman, whose admir
ers 'boasted that he never would swerve
from his duty to the country In order
to serve his party, seemsjrtclined to post
pone another l?ue of bonds until after
the elections, not because 'he does not
think It for the public interest, but be
.cause it might Injure his party at the
ballot boxes. If such reports are true.
the president Is again taking for partisan
ship a rea.'.y serious I'.sk. It 1 pos'ble
as some bankers now telleve, that the
rapid decrease in gold exports lost week
means that the outo is practically over.
But the president has pledged himself to
use the powers at his command when
ever and a soon as It might ibe necessary
to protect the gold1 reserve, which is
not now intact, has not been for some
weeks, and in view of the dlribandmcnt
of the syndicate, does not seem likely
to be replenished very toon. The bottom
fact Is that the president exposes -the
country to a risk In order to avoid a
risk for his party.
The Tribune has stated that an lame
of bonds at this time Is absolutely tin
necessary, because the president has the
power to remove pifb'.lc apprehension In
either of two ways, by calling congress
together, or by making -known his de
ctelon to accept the financial remedies
which congress may adopt. But It Is
not now and has not at any time been
clear, that If he refuses to adopt either
of these courses, the president can with
saifety defer another tale of bonds. Ex
pectations of a rapid outgo of cotton
seem to have controlled banker who
have reotrlcted their exports of gold.
But European markets for cotton are so
much lower than the New York markets,
and the stocks of old cotton abroad are
so large, that speedy exports In large
quantity are by no means certain. Tl;e
wheat movement is only about half
of lust year' from Atlantic ports. All
exports from New York in two weeks
of September have been but slightly
larger than last year, while the Imports
In three weeks have been W.700,000 larger,
or about 30 per cent. A similar change
throughout the month and at all ports
would malce the balance payable for the
month on merchandise account quite
large, and the undervaluations and In
terest due abroad, amounting to more
than (10,000,000, are yet to bo added.
The president a'ao knows that the treas
ury stil'J has to face a. deficit. It Is pos
sible In any month, by partisan account-
keepln? and the postponement of de-bts
actually due, to cook up an apparent
surplus, and some such plan seems to
be In the minds of officials who have an
eye single to the coming elections. But
the people who make public opinion are
well aware that the revenue does not
equal the sum required for the expenses
of povernment, and their Judgment of the
president will be baaed, not upon the
notions of ignorant voters, but upon their
knowledge of the truth.
Whether an Issue of bonds can be de
ferred until after the election without
disaster, by the methods which the presi
dent Is minded to adopt, it Is not pos
sible to predict. But It Is certain that
an Issue could be placed today on favpr
ba! terms, though tetter could have
been obtained early In July, before the
latest outflow of gold. It Is certain that
decidedly worse terms would be forced
upon the government if the offer ot bonds
should be deferred until serious apprehen
sion had set In, and the gold reserve
had been much1 depleted. It Is Impossible
to foresee what may be sacrificed for the
sake of party, ty 'deferring a step which
the president, according to all accounts,
has determined to take before congress
meets, in order to head off other and
far more patriotic modes ot relief. The
Venture and the sacrifice of public In
terests, wh'ether It proves great or little,
will go to correct the estimate formed
of the president by those who hove sup
posed that he would nevernacrlnce the
good of the country to the supposed ad
vantage of his party.
BEWARE OF COUNTERFEITERS.
Who Infest tho maiket and are the means
of robbing sick people of their money,
and what Is of still greater consequence,
of not unfrequently aggravating the com
plaints under which they labor. It Is an
act of duty we owe to society, to warn
the people against these dangerous
frauds. A little care on the part of the
purchaser will protect them from' imposi
tion by bearing In mind these facts: Nev

HOW CANS WERE FIRST MADE.
The first can of which we have any
account was a little over a foot In
length and two and a half Inches In di
ameter, much) resembling the end of a
water spout sawed off and not at all
like tho present style of cms. An empty
can of this kind made In 1847 Is still
In existence and has been used as a sllont
but potent 'witness In many a famous
law suit.
Cans were then made with what Is
called a stud top. that Is, top and bot
toms were both soldered Into the cans,
but a smilft hole, perhaps half an Inch to
an Inch In diameter, wa left open.
Through this orifice th vegetable and
meat were thrust and In the course the
meat cut Into small pieces, not In solid
form a now. After ufflclent cooking
In a kettle filled with water the can
was soldered and' the case would often,
keep for years, but not always, for not
having been vented they would swell,
and; sometime, though not often, bunt,
for the tin used wa the very heavy
"charcoal." Oftentimes, Important dis
coveries are made by accident and that
of the vent was a case In point. One
dav some children were playing with
a lot of swelled cans, when one of them
pounded the ends with some sharp tool
that mads a. hole. The escaping gas
phased them and they continued their
novel little game until each one had
vent. Mr. Wlnalow was In a great rage.
1t is ald, but s a forlorn hope rebathed
the cans and then soldered up me note.
The result proved that not only had he
saved hi corn but this was the true
method and a great discovery.
