St. Louis Globe-Democrat: The quality and life of cables of different makes, sizes and lepgths 1n connection with modern street railway engineer- ing has grown to be quite a study with mechanical engineers, and a good deal of cable knowledge Enined from experi- ence has beén reduced to an exact science. Engineer Wright, who built the Citizen’s Cable railway and Frank- lin avenue road, was asked yesterday by a Globe-Democrat reporter for some points on cables. Mr. Wright said that a cable 20.000 feet long was the most durable. The ultimate swength of a 1% inch cable was about able to support a weight of fifty tons before itjwould snap. The strength varied wit] the material, the way it was manufactured and the kind and size of wire used. In making a wire rope the strands must each have an equal tension or strain, and when finished in the cable each strand should be at an equal tension, so as to get_the strength uniform in the cable. That 20,000 was the most dura- ble length had been demonstrated by experience. It the longer rope the strain was too great, as a greater load had to be drawn. A shorter cable than 20,000 feet had to make a greater num- ber of bends as the cable entered the en- gine-house and passed around the machi- nery a certain number of times more than the longer one. If the eable were 10,000 feet long it would pass through all those bends twice as often as if it were 20,000 feet in length. These bends all cause wear, It would stand going over the drum wheels, ete.,, a certain numer of times when it would break. Besides, the wear came in to hasten the time when it would snap in two. If it just bent without any wear one could bend it_only so many times. The outside wires would get st aightened and the inside ones would,get crumpled and compressed. “How LlUHL‘]V together might trains be run? “I have seen the Market street trains in San Francisco at intervals of t wenty seconds apart. They have twenty-five miles of track there, but, of course, with different ropes. Hills give a cable peculiar advantages. In all motive powers, other than cable power, the movement forward is dependent upon adhesion, which lessons as the grade increases. Take a locomotive, for in- stance. You can increase the in- clination of the steel track rail until at a certain point the Jocomotive will siide down the hill in- stead of proceeding up the hillside. The cable is independent of adhesion, the having a positive pull to take them v grade. And if the traftic is equal directions upon equal grades is necessary than if the road I, as the descending train assists eding one?” **What sort of wire is used?” “Different makers use different grades of wire. The common form of cable used in this country consists of six strands of nineteen wires each, laid around a hemp core the same size as one of the strands. The hemp is to make the cable flexible.” “‘How long will a cable last?” At the ordinary rate of speed, cables have ' remained in .daily service for twenty-seven months,” cable WEEKLY BUSINESS REVIEV.| An Average Quietude Prevails in Financial Ciroles. MONEY IN GOOD DEMAND. Transactions in Rallway Stocks Active —Ouly a Moderate Range in Grain—General Trade Con- sidered Promising. In the Commercial World. Cuicaco, Feb. 25.—[Speocial Telegram to the Ber.]—The week has been marked by an average quietude in financial circles. Money met a fair but not urgent demand, and, al- though banks were not burdened with funds, they were in a position to provide for loeal customers and the class of outside borrowers who offered choice paper or collateral. The ruling rates for outside paper, including col- lateral, loans on grain and hog products at other points were 73@8 per cent, although some large advances were made on wheat at lake shipping points at 6@63 per cent. The fact is that grain and provision dealers and Targe jobbers, who in former years looked up to the east for the bulk of money with which to carry them through the winter and early spring, now seek this market and use Chi- cago bankers to muke the lowest rates con- sistent, their object being to foster such busi- ness and in 8o doing advance the position of Chicago, as a financial as well as a grain, provision and jobbing center. There has been a fair demand for local se- curities from investors, but speculative trading in specialties was small. New York exchange has been in just fair supply and s0ld at par to 25 per cent premium per $1,000 between banks, Foreign exchange show creased firmness and shippers' sixty-day documentary bills on London and Glasgow advanced to $1.835¢@4.538{, being the highest figures obtained for many months. At the eastern scaboard money is quoted fairly easy at 43¢@s per cent for gilt-edged to fair busi- ness paper and collateral loans. The jobbing trade in dry goods and clothing has shown a material improvement during the week and inquiry among the jobbing houses elops that since the opening of the year are in excess of the large business recorded dur- ing the first two mouths of 18 There is also an improvement in other lines of the jobbing trade and collections are equal to the average of this season in former years. The iron trado is reported ratherslowy, but the production has been decreaséd and supplies are likely to be adjusted to the ‘demand for consumption. Steel rails are steady and the contracts placed so far this year are reported at (00,000 tons, which is nearly 50 per cent of the an- nual production, On the whole, the business outlook may be ‘regarded as very satisfac- tory. Trading in raflway stocks in New York, while slow, hus been rather more agtive than last week, and, although prices at times showed fair recoveries, the rallies were d: ‘clique” manipulations, the real such as present or prospective increases in earnings, being lacking and the outside prices were not supported at the closa, The total sales were 674,000 shares. Only a moderate business was transacted crain and provision markets during the week,andfluctuations extended 17ic, reco closing only'about o lowor, corn 3¢ high and oats ;¢ lower than the clc la Provision re unchanged, exc ..un..v short ribs, which elosed 15¢ low Business was of 4 somewhat restricted character, taking the week all in all. Business picked up some, which was attributed to “shorts" iug, influenced some by the fear that y might possibly be disappointed in their expectations of increased receipts, which had b.en calculated upon s a result of reduced grain 410 age charges here and the culin | treights Ly the Chicago, Burlington' & Quincy from western points to Chicago. The receipts did increase _ some, but not as much as anticipated, and there was a Aikeonition to'aevar: Hven provisions sym- pathized with the situation and the result was a firmer feeling and & moderate advance for all articles above the cloBing figures noted last Friday. Later the markets ruled quiet again, outside business slackened up and there was not enough action to the market to even induce active local trading. At the same time an easier feeling set in, chietly manifested in hog products, which closed rather tame, while the grain markets closed stronger. Eyropean market advices quoted rather heavy markets early, but became steadier later in the week, with a slight advance in prices, but closed weak and heavy. In fact, the foreign markets fol- lowed the temper of American markets. Re- ceipts have shown some increase here—only of corn and oats, however—and in these the increase was not by any means what was ex- pected. In the winter wheat districts the re- ceipts continued small and in the northwest rather larger, though Minneapolis received nearly all of the wheat. The rather free ar- rivals there were attributed to the clearing up of the snow blockade, and late advices in- timated that the free arrivals would only continue a few da; The export movement has been moderase from the seaboard and the closing advices reported freer buying there, —— The Tekamah Reception, Governor Thayer and staff, accompanied by Captain Smyth, Licutenant ' Paul,” Sergeant Mullen, Corporal Scannell, Musician Cannon and Private Linahan, of the Eaward Creigh- ton Guard, N, N.

Great Excitement in an Iowa Ger- man Settlement. CONSTABLES MAKE A RAID All the Spirituous Comforts of Gutten- berg Village Captured at One Fell Swoop—Ex-Warden Martin Exonerated. TroublerAmong the Teutons. Dusuqug, Ia., Feb. 25.—[Special Telegram to the Bee.]—It is stated that early this morning a force of constables from neighbor- ing towns made & descent on Guttenberg, a German town in Clayton county, and carried off all the beer, ale, whisky and other liquors they could find. The ruid was quite unex- pected and has thrown the town into the greatest excitement it has known for years, A Brakeman'sFatal Fall. CepAR Rarips, Ya., Feb. 25.—[Special Tel- egram to the Ber]—J. L.

His remains were taken to Burlington, his home, where he leaves a wife and child. The House Railroad Bill. Des Moixes, Ta., Feb, 25.—[Special Tele- gram to the Bee.]—The railroad bill which the house passed unanimously to-day is the first attempt to regulate the railroads on a complex plan. The bill is three-fold in its character, being substantially the Illinois commissioner law, the Missouri commissioner law and the spplication of inter-state com- merce principles to state traffic. It forbids discriminations, special rates, special favors to shippers in any way and provides that the railroad commissioners shall fix a maximum schedule of rates which shall be held in every court in the state to be prima facie evidence of reasonable rates. If shippers demand a change in rates the commissioners snall give them an immediate hearmg after fotifymg all partics concerned of the meeting. The bill forbids the issuance of any pusses except to railroad employes and their families, It is 80 crudely drawn and so complex in its provisions that it is not thought likely to pass the senate. That body has & measure of its own covering about the same ground, and it looks now as if & dead lock would fol* low until some compromise bill is reached. The lowa Legislature. Des Moixes, Ia., Feb. 25.—The house com- mittee on penitentiarios has considered the Thompson resolution and remanded, for in- vestigation the charges against ex-Warden Martin, of the Anamosa penitentiary and recommended that no further action be taken. The committee also make a favorable report on the Dobson bill relating to good time allowed to prisoners in the penitentiary. The bill shortens the time allowed prisoners in for a short term and lengthens that of those in for a long term. “The cowmittee on banks and banking will re- port a substitute for the Woods bill fixing the compensation to the auditor for the examina- tion of banks. The substitute makes the fee $10 for bunks with a capital between 25,000 and $50,000: $15 between §50,000 and §75,000, and $20 between §75,000 and $100,000. The te committee on schools, consic ing the text book question, decided in fayc of several features of the state uniformity plan as opposed to the plan for district uni formity. Iu the house several bills were introduced. The discussion of the railroad bill was fin- ished and engrossment ordered. ‘The bill to prevent combinations in insur- ance companies passed.

St. Louis Glob-Democrat: Congress- man O'Neil said there was a well-to-do Irishman up on O'Fallon street, near Biddle market, in St. Louis, who found himself about to pass away. His name was Maloney. He sent for his old friend, O’Connor, to come and make his will, Iu\enthmg was in readiness, and the ng man said: ut down $300 in masses up at St. Lawrence O'Toole’s for the repose of my soul.” The pen scratched away and then M, O’Connor said: ““What nixt, Mr. Malone, “Put down £500 for the Li of the Poor, Have ye that down, Mr, O'Connor?” % “1 have, Mr. Maloney.
