GAS MORE BRILLIANT THAN ELECTRICITY Novel IlNCMrlr In Artlfti'Inl I'oniU CnniilloNn Product * Mntli- from Oonl Tiir Counterfeit * f Sccnln of rium-ri. A new gag his been discovered. H ylfld * the most brilliant while light known , sur- jiatslng electricity. The best of It Is that It can bo tnaiiufaclurcd In the household with a machine that costs only 11.50. One Jtt of It tqualu flfttt-n orJInary ga * Jets. Before long , owing to the extreme simplicity of the ap paratus required , It Is destined to be utilized to a great extent In rural parts trf Hie country. This gas , according to the St. Leuls Globi- Bemocrat , Is made by beating two common elements , carbon and calcium , wttli thd tlec- trie nrc , adding water to the compound which I they form by uniting. This compound , carbide of calcium , wilt be placed on the market before long , together with the ap paratus for Illuminatingpurposes' . Hut tbo new gas Is Interesting for reasons more Im portant than Its mere commercial value. The chcmlRtK have succeeded In converting It by a tllght change Into tugar cnl alcohol. In oilier words , two Inorganic elements have been so combined as to form substances which In n.ituro ars products of living otganlsniR. Thin means that the gap between the or ganic anil thu Inorganic world has been bridged at last. The bridge Is the electric arc. Hut scientists have long been an are that thtro was no real distinction between the organic and the Inorganic In nature. Minerals possess as much.lite and vitality ns do animals and plants , A piece of granite Is In a sense alive , composed as It Is It crystals , of mlcii , feldspar nnd quartz. The vitality of crystals Is as wonderful an that ot the highest organisms. The man who can explain the gronth ot n crystal will reveal the mystery of lire. Drop a few salt crystals Into a solution of palt and they will propagate their species rapidly. FORMATION OF CRYSTALS. How Is It that broken crystals are able to reform themselves under suitable conditions , as a crab grows a new leg In place ot one that has been lost ? Why do various sub stances crystallize according to definite geometrical patterns , each chcoslng Its own Btyle and varying not therefrom ? For what reason should a crystal of salt be always a perfect cube ? Were you to try , you would nnd it very difficult to carve out of any material a six-sided solid , with each of Its . faces an absolute square. Yet nature makes such forma by myriads offhand. Let a cup ful ot salt and water evaporate slowly In1 a cool place and the residue will shape Itself Into an aggregation of as perfect cubes as ever were conceived by the mathematician. Such cubes are often found three Inches or more on an edge. Every mineral has its own forms of crystal lizing. One will invariably take the shape of a hexahedron , another of an octahedron , and. so on , each assuming the outline which belongs to It and none other. Water has its ' crystalline forms like any other mineral. - Ice , of course , Is as much a rock as granite , f though It becomes a fluid at a much lower temperature. The cube is one of the most common forms ot crystals. That shape Is taken by gold , silver , copper an'd lead. The diamond crystallzes on the cubical sys tem. Not a few crystals nra most curiously Imitative. One kind , of Iron sulphide , is apt to resemble a wild rose to closely that you cannot but Imagine the flower to be actually petrified. Crystals of oxide of titanium are regularly gathered In the fields , after heavy rains , by the children of Alexander County , North Carolina. ' They arc shipped to the cities and are used to give the proper yel lowish color to artificial teeth. A single crystal of beryl In the National museum weighs 1,020 pounds. After all , chemistry Is the basis of all the sciences , and the rate at which 'it ' haa been going ahead of late Is astonishing. On a shelf In the patent office at Washing ton are a number ot bottles containing co lognes and various scents. These we're not made from flowers , but are laboratory com pounds , counterfeiting the perfumes of the rose and other kinds of blossoms so per fectly thnt nobody can tell the "difference. Nearly all of them are entirely new. Attnr of roses has not yet been produced artifi cially , but it lo In Bight. The chemists are approaching It from two directions. The ethereal oil that gives to the rose' Its pe culiar fragrance Is called "rhodonol. " This oil Is found In the common lemon-grass , and also In some of the geraniums. Efforts are being made to extract the oil from these plants , only a slight modification being re quired to transform it Into the attar. At the panic time the production of the attar is being attempted directly from the elements which naturn nmploys In its composition. Al.jiFICIAL SCENTS. The production ot artificial musk from coal tar Is n wonderful triumph of .synthetic chemistry. It Is likely to drive the real article out of the market before long. Though not at all the same thing as real musk , ot course , chemically speaking , Its scent Is Indistinguishable from that'of the latter. Musk of course Is an Important article of commerce , obtained from a gland , of the musk ileer that roams the pine forests of the Himalayas. The perfumes of all flowers are due to ethereal oils , and before long nil of these will bo manufactured artificially. Ethereal oils give to fruits their delicious flavors. There are hundreds of thesa oils and every ono of them can be counterfeited easily , Inasmuch as they are very simple chemical compounds. It doesn't pay any longer to use real fruit syrups for soda water , Inasmuch as all of them can be Imitated to perfection with artificial ethers or by mix tures of ether ? . 'jho biggest commercial success In the way of an artificial flavoring Is vanllllne. This product Is keeping down the price of vnnllla beans , and Is likely to drive the latter out of the market. Already the chemists are manufacturing oil of banana , oil of pine apple , oil of pear , oil of apple , oil ot rasp berry und many others. The esuentlal oil of banana , obtained by distilling the fruit , is Identical chemically with the laboratory product. Oil ot banana la a compound of acetic acid und amyl alcohol , the latter being the chief constituent of fusel oil. Oil of bitter almonds has been counterfeited. Though chemically different , it has. the tame flavor as the real. The chemists now know how to counterfeit lactic acid , which la the sour principle of sour milk. They also make citric acid , which In the four of the lemon. A recent achievement of great Importance I : the manu facture , of salicylic acid from carb.dlc ucM. One of the belt remedies for gout and rheu matism Is Billcyllc icld ; also , U is very uwful n a preservative. Formerly It was obta'no'l ' from the wlntergreen plant and from certain varieties ot willows , and It was very costly. At present it la made by th.i .on and In rx- tremely cheap too cheap. In. f.ict , limsirmch OB It If freely employed to give a better keeping quality to bottled and otherwise pre served fcodv. It kills the bacteria that pro duce decomposition , but In tiio tomcth It destroys the digestive , fermen's , arm on that account It If Injurious to health , PRODUCTS OF COAL TAR. The variety of useful products obtained In the laboratory from coal tar Is amazing. This substance , formerly thrown Mvay as worthless , nerves the purposes of tlia i-yn- thetlc chemist admirably , Inasmuch as It Is a very elaborate compound , very c'loap nd containing : a great variety at element * . It' hat furnished hundreds of new and valuable medicines , particularly anti-fever tem dlcs. From It are obtained too anlllno dyes , which glvo all the colors ot the rainbow. Anlllno Itfelf Is colorlesj , Us salts having the bril liant hues. From coal tar also saccharine and dulclne have been derived. Bach of them ls more than 200 times sweet aa sugar , the Utter being more pleasant to the taste. Formerly no dye material exceeded madder In commercial Importince. It was the basis ot nearly all dyes , and the root from which U wat obtained wni grown on a great scale In Eurono and AvU.

This last Is a EiiKgentlon of Trof. tier- thelot'a , who. tlioiigh n scientific man of the flrrt rank , may be regarded ns a trine ovirantlitislastlc nn the subject of synthetic chemistry and Ha prospects for the future. He B.iyy that some day the business of the fanner nnd the Mockrulter Kill bf taken away by the laboratory.V shall then have chemical nisats , chemical broad , chem ical vegetables , and even chemical wines and liquors. It Is only fair to say that the prediction ns to chemical v.-lnes and liquors his been realized already to a considerable extent. The alcoholic beverages on the mar ket are largely conipofi'd of cologne spirits , flavored with artificial ethers , according to the liquor desired , whether brandy , rum , gin , \\hlsky or what not. Artificial milk In a hope , If not an expecta tion , ot the future. The natural product Is known to bo composed of certain definite frtts , cnselne , milk , sugar nndvater. . Milk sugar Ins already baen counterfeited. Some day the consumer may be able to procure asses' milk , goat's- milk or cow's ? milk from the same factory , warranted free from tuber cular or other dangerous germs. It Is an ticipated that teas and coffees will be man ufactured artificially ; likewise spices. Edible fats may b'e produced eventually , such a fat being nothing more than a combination ot glycerine and a fatty acid. For obvious reason ? the most costly foods will be syn- thctlzed first. There wilt be no profit In Imitating cheap things. The chemist can not compete with nature In the production- starch , and from starch Is made sugar , and from sugar alcohol. ARTIFICIAL SUGAR. The chemists have made several kinds ot sugars that are not known In nature at all. She has no use for them In her business. Some ot them are not fermentable , and for that reason nro not digestible. They can not bo , transformed Into alcohol , and It Is well known that nature's chief object In producing sugars Is to make something from which alcoholic beverages can b obtained. Olucose , though not a synthetic product , Is the most Interesting of artificial sugars , In the United States 100,000 bushels ot corn are consumed dally In Its manufacture. Most of the glucose Is made In'I'eorla , 111. The greatest factories were located In Buffalo , but they were burned a year ago. Glucose Is of two kinds , liquid and solid , the latter being known as "srapj sugar. " The liquid Is chiefly employed In the manufacture of syrups and candy. It Is Indispensable In candy-making , and all confectioners use It largely. It Is cheap and gives the necessary body to the candy. When thre was no commercial glucose , confectioners boiled their sugar for a long time , until It was con verted Into glucose. When molasses candy Is made In the household. It Is boiled for so long a time simply for the purpose of trans forming It Into glucose. It Is not true that glucose Is tn the least Injurious- health. Orape sugar Is used almost' exclusively by brewers. Glucose Is obtained from corn In this country , but In Europe u IB got -from po tatoes. The corn Is steeped In warm water until It Is almost sprouted. Th.-n it Is ground by rollers and thrown upon a fine screen. The starch is washed through the screen by water , and the residue la dried for cattle feed. The starch Is beaten to a cream and sulphuric acid Is added. The mixture Is heated until liquid , treated with marble dust to remove the acid , filtered to get rid of the lime , passed through bone-black to make It white , and evaporated to the con sistency desired. AVttllCNMCH. There are knaves now and then met with who represent certain local blttera and pois onous stimuli as Identical with or possessing properties akin to those of Hosteller's Stomach ach DItters. These scamps only succeed In foisting their trashy compounds upon people unacquainted with the genuine article , which Is ag much their opposite as day is to night.

SECURITIES GOING INTO STRONG HANDS Tim Id llnlilcrn Offer Clicnply ntul Met Hid of Tliclr I'oinex.HloiiH An- _ _ odicr llnnil IBIIIC Alrpmly Dlncnuiituil by IlroUrrx. NEW YOniC , Nov. 24. Henry Clews , head ot the banking house ot Henry Clews & fco. , writes ot the situation In Wall street : The stock market has been In an unset tled and unsatisfactory condition. It showed nn altogether exceptional lack of responsiveness to cither favorable or un favorable conditions. Kven the trunk line agreement nnd Secretary Carlisle's strong sound money speech nt the Chamber of Commerce dinner fell fiat. Under ordinary circumstances these events would have strengthenid confidence , nnd giently re- tit-otto themselves upon the Stock exchange. On the other hand , un- favorauiu developments had very little effect. Gold exports , foreign liquidation , nnd Attorney Genrinl Hancock's decision ngalnst the trusts were nil Im portant adverse factors , but their Influence upon prices In each Instance wns much less than anticipated. This Inertia can only be explained by the unfavorable conditions having been very fully discounted In the late decline ; yet whllo these adverse condi tions remain , or until their abatement Is cleatly In sight , the market leaders arc not likely to shut oft the supply of cheap clocks which weak or timid holders continue to offer , it Is very certain that stocks have been going Into strong hands during the last few weeks , and nre now controlled by those who nre nble to raise them to a higher level. \\lien circumstances nnd disposition com bine to favor. LONDON FOIICKD TO LIQUIDATE. This week the market has lacked buying power. London has been n steady seller of our securities , not alone becnuse of political disturbances , and distrust of our finances , but largely because of forced liquidation. A panic In Kaffirs has happily been averted by heroic methods ; but liquidation , though slower nnd less severe , must be faced never theless ; nnd in such emergencies Ih ? bitter class of securities arc always sacrificed to help the weaker , simply because their sale Involves the smaller loss. The renewal of gold shipments from here to Kuropp , nt n time when the current Is almost Invariably In the opposite direction , Is also u very nat ural obstacle to a rising market. Indeed , the wonder Is that values have been so well sustained In a market entirely free from nny support whatever. Distrust on this ac count Is likely to remain , nnd will Increase , unless steps are taken to relieve the treas ury from embarrassing consequences. It dees not yet appear whether help will first come from a bond Issue or from a restora tion of former relations between the banks unil fhi > trpnsiirv. whcrebv the latter wns acsured of a gold Income. A bond Issue Is already a foregone conclusion , nnd Its oc currence will create no uneasiness In finan cial circles. Possibly. It may do good In a negative fnrhlon fay emphasizing the urgency of currency reform. SOME FAVORABLE SIGNS. Meantime , railroad earnings continue to make encouraging gains , especially In the west and northwest , where the heavy grain movement Is stimulating both traffic nnd general business. In the southwest 'the ' backward movement of cotton IB causing deficiencies tn earnings , but as the cotton must soon go forward better results may be anticipated In due season. It follows also thnt ns soon as cotton and wheat go to Europe with more freedom , as they Inevita bly must , the exchange market will meet with that much relief. The buslners situa tion Is satisfactory. There Is less activity than a few weeks ago , which Is to be ex pected In the closing months of the year. In several Hlnple markets where prices or production had been advanced too rapidly there Is a reactionary tendency , which , In the end , will encourage fresh buying nnd give confidence in the future a more sub stantial basis. In n few days congress will open , but the session promises to be less disturbing than Its predecessors. In all probability currency reform will be the leading Ifsue. The outlook for 1S9 ( > Is as bright nnd hopeful ns could be hoped for withini reason. Of the Immediate future .there Is some doubt. Values are low and mnnv stocks are selllnc nt attractive nrlces : but until the financial atmosphere grows clearer * , we advise buvlng only on the de clines and taking profits on fair rallies. WOOL SHOWS AN UP TI3XUEXCY. Clicniicr In the Unltvil Stuten iliiui Anywhere In the World. BOSTON , Nov. 24. The American Wool and Cotton Reporter says of the wool trade : Wool of all kinds can be bought at date no where else In the world as cheap as In the principal markets of the United States. The current condition of the market Is healthy , even though Its pulse Isn't throbbing like It did In midsummer. When a respectable number of moderate size woolen plants elsht to ten sets of cards are quietly pickIng - Ing up stock , and presumably digesting- , and when the demand , though nothing like phenomenal. Is sufficiently miscellaneous to afford most kinds of material an opportunity to participate In the movement , the situa tion ought to be regarded ns being reason ably encouraging. Although but little more wool has been sold this week than was moved In the same period a year ago , theie has been a good deal of quiet sampling which , it Is Idle to suppose , means anything else than ultimate purchase and consump tion. A call for fine wools continues , but It has apparently sufficiently abated to allow of a disposition to acquire various other sorts. Not only has the demand for domes tic stock become more general In character , but parties hnve recently been asking for certain kinds of foreign wools , to which they were not long since little Inclined to pay any attention. Carpet wools are re ceiving their full share of attention. Scoured wcols are doing well , and some good bar gains are porslblo In them Just now. The sales In New York , Boston and Philadelphia hnve amounted this week to 6,819,800'pounds , of which 3,102,600 pounds were domestic , and 2,817,200 pounds were foreign wool. Every feature of the goods and wool mar kets at New York at present Is conducive to a slow demand for wool , but business will not be sufficiently underway for three or four weeks , to make much difference in the demand for stock. There are few in stances where fine wools have been cold under the full prices which have ruled for the last few months , but the manufacturer Is conscious of the tendency of the market to a lower level , and will not afford It uny support until he la absolutely obliged to. The sales of the week aggregate 1,403,000 pounds , of which 163,000 pounds were do mestic and 1,240,000 poundx foreign , making a total since January 1 of 62,031,400 pounds ; during the corresponding period of 1S94 , the aggregate sales were 30,421,100 pounds , Except that since Saturday It hus been less active than a week earlier , there IB no change of the least significance from the situation in Boston , described by the Jtc- porter at thnt tlmo. The character of the business done , as will bu seen from the sub joined schedule of sales , justifies the con clusion reached last week thnt the' demand has become more general In character. Prices nre practically unchanped , The Kalen of the week have nmountcd to 2.823,300 pounds , of which 1,8C5KX ( ) wrre ilomcMIc and 1 057,500 were foreign. The total sale * In the corresponding week last year were 2,819.00' ) pounds. The sales since January 1 , lf > 9 ! > , amount to 184.044,170 pounds , against 130- 183.F.S5 pounds a > ear ago. The domestic wool market nt Philadel phia has received a very fair share of at tention thlH week. Several sample lots have been found favorable to the manufacturers who have taken up some fair sized blocks. Contddfnible xampllng has been done through brokers , with both locvl nnd past ern mills , and there are several deals which will , no doubt , bo concluded this week. The aegregate pales of the past week were 1.073 , . fcOO pounds of domestic wool and 219,700 pounds foreign , making a total far the week of 1,593,000 pounds. The sales since January 1 , 1K > 5 , have amounted to 83.603,010 poundx , against 50,3(3,627 pounds In the correspond ing period of Inul year. The business for the week nt Chicago fo.U up more than for some timethe sales bring pretty t-quully divided among the different stores. The rales of the week on nil kinds will aggregate about 600,000 pounds , The week closes with u better feeling among the trade than for rome time. There hau been quite a business done 'at ' St. Louis , but the market continued to be quiet. The receipts of fall WOO'.H are in creasing slowly. itivnw OF MANCjussTnit TF.XTII.KS ( Jliliin'H Triiile UiiiiNiinllx Ilriivy for tliuVrK . MANCHESTER. Nov. 24.

CATTLE The week clo ed with n light run of cattle even for n Saturday , only eighteen fresh lends being In night. There were not enough of nny one kind of cuttla to make much ot n test of the market. The buyers took what there were nt good strung prices und the trade wns noon over. It Is remarked that buyers do not nppenr lo tnko to heavy beeves this full nnd there nro Homo who nre free to predict that big- , heavy cuttle will not command the pre mium over llcht rattle that they have In past years. The demand liux called for cattle of medium weight but pf good finish , while heavy weights have been neglected so serloiifly thnt they have been extremely hard to sell , even In eastern market ; * , nt anything like satisfactory prices. Thin la generally the rule during a Bcnnou when feed Is plenty and cheap. Stockmen nre apt to feed longer , because that ! the best Investment they can make or their coin. The remit Is that too many heavy cattle nre thrown on the market.
