> Savannah, Dec. 30.—The demand for
naval stores, In the face of a shrinkage
in receipts, the result of a scarcity of
labor on farms, has strengthened the mar
ket and established upward tendencies in
Ijotn spirits turpentine and rosin. Spirits
went up %c to-day, closing firm at 49%c,
while rosin was very firm at quotations.
Grades X. K, advanced sc, and N 16c. The
transactions for the day were the heaviest
for some time past. As the present ad
vances are supported by conditions, it is
the general belief that prices will con
tinue upward, and that the market may
reach a high point. The cotton market
reacted at the 1 o'clock call, when a de
cline of l-16c on all grades was posted. It
was another day of holiday dullness, with
the trade devoting itself largely to the
winding up of December business. The
same activity prevails with the wholesale
and other branches, which are giving
' much time at present to the winding up
of the month's transactions, collections,
[ and other matters, preparatory to begin
ning the new year. Produce was firm at
quotations, and the market well supplied
with all lines. The following resume of
the different markets will show the tone
and quotations at the close to-day:
COTTON.
This was another day characterized by
a holiday dullness, so far as the volume
I of business transacted was concerned. The
| sales reported on Thursday and Friday ap-
I parently supplied about all who needed
I cotton for December contracts. The mur-
I ket dropped back to-day, there being a
I decline of l-16c on all grades. The mar-
I ket was firm at the decline, however. The
I trade still have faith in an early improve-
I merat. Until there is a change for the
I better, the belief Is that holders will de-
I cline to sell.
I The following were the official spot quo-
I tations at the close of the market at
I the Cotton Exchange to-day:

Capt. H. C. Daggett of the steamship
City of Augusta, which arrived yesterday
from New York, reports that on Dec. 29,
lat. 34 N, long. 76, 49 W, at 7:45 a. m.. lie
passed a two strvoke stack tug, funnel
mark white band, bound North, with a
ship in tow. Capt. Daggett reports
weather strong, with a northwest wind
and moderate sea.
While there are a large number of ves
sels in port at present, the number is con
siderably less than it would have been
had cotton moved as freely as it did last
year. The holding back for better prices
keeps much of the cotton in warehouses in
the interior at present, which would oth
erwise be moving through this po t
The agent of the Ocean Steamship Com
pany stated at New York that the steam
ship City of Macon, which arrived there
Wednesday night from Savannah and
stuck on Romer shoal for two hours, was
uninjured. She arrived during the night
and landed her passengers In Hoboken.
Notification has been made by several
European countries that quarantine is no
longer to be imposed on arrivals from
Alexandria, which is now recognized as
free from sickness. Spain, France, Italy
and Russia grant free pratique to vessels
arriving in their ports from Egypt, but
Greece and Turkey still require live days'
quarantine observation to be undergone in
all cases. Doubtless at the expiration of a
period of forty days from the last reported
case of plague these two countries will fail
into line witli the others and abolish quar
antine observation against Egyptian ar
rivals in their ports.
In the month of October 2,669 vessels,
measuring 385,176 register tons, used the
North sea and Baltic canal, against 2,436
vessels and 330,843 tons in the same month
last year. The dues collected amounted to
208,211 marks, against 173,192 marks.

ICE IS A POWERFUL K.YFtOMV B.
Old Shells Are to Be Rent Asunder
by Its Agency.
From the Philadelphia Times.
The United States government has been
having dealings with the Junkman, It
has sold on Immense quantity of old
projectiles In the Brooklyn Navy Yard to
the Penn Iron Works of Cheater, Pa., at
second-hand rates. These projectiles
range Is dlumeter from eight to fifteen
inches, the latter being a popular form
of cannon ball during the Civil War, In
the lot were 646 15-lneh shells, 2,200 8-lnch
shells and 6,000 9-inch shells. They were
sold to the first buyer at one-half cent a
pound, Under this arrangement the lat
ter pays about $3 each for the larger
shells of 300 pounds and 31.50 apiece for
the smallest. Tim projectiles are sold
merely because they occupy valuable
space. They had no value to the ordinary
junkman, because he did not know how to
break them up, and it Is Impossible to
melt them in one piece. The man who
bought them first broke several pile driv
ers upon them and finally gave It up In
despair.
American inguenlty, however, wus equal
to the task of smashing them. A genius
employed In the Penn Iron Works hit upon
a novel way of doing It. He will arrange
the sheila with the fuse holes upward and
wait for cold weather. When this comes
he will fill them with cold water. Th is
will freeze. When water freezes It ex
pands with terrific force. The expansion
will smash the shells as If they were so
many walnuts. nils peaceful method of
exploding the shells resembles the turning
of a sword Into a pruning blade, the pop
ular simile of the poets. It may also
point the way to some ingenious Inven
tor who wishes to discover a cheap ap
plication of force. Perhaps Hie Ice power
machine will be developed as a result of
the frigid explosions at the Penn Iron
Works.
When the government announced that It
was going to sell the shot the Grand Army
posts passed resolutions of regret. They
declared that they should be reserved as
relics. Thereupon the Secretary of the
Navy offered 1.000 8-Inoh shells to any
Grand Army men who would call for them
and move them to their post rooms. As
each shell weighs 150 pounds It Is not an
easy thing to tote It around. The Secre
tary waited for a long while and not a
single one of the shells was ever called
for. He wrote again to the Grand Army
post*, renewing his offer, but without any
result.

of consider.-! Me size ;uid variety.
One of the main objects of tlic Inventor
was to produce a machine eultab e for mil
itary purposes, and the military authori
ties sent a cycle orderly to partlclpat In
the tests, with a view. It Is under,-t-od. of
using the cycles In South Africa If t i-y
were found to be all that was claimed fo
them. Among (hose who were pres nt
were Schomberg K. McDonnell, Lord Sal
isbury's principal private secteiary, and
a number of military officers
The machine has an nhs- lu'elv rigid
frame, hung on springs, much In ihc same
manner as a locomtlve and Its tinier, lh>
hubs of the wheel sliding In gr.oves. It
Is claimed that an average am-'-teur cyr'i-t
can ride along a thirty or forty rung 1 el
der. lying on the ground, without discom
fort, and that even an elderly rider ia i
negotiate bricks, four or five-inch curbs,
deep ruts and obstacles wh'eh would ruin
an ordinary machine und rl-k 1.-ss of .lfo
or limbs. •
There were several machines under tes .
The weights varied frrtn 32 to 38 p unds
and ihere were sold cushion and trs -
malic i Ires. The objects ts and were Hocks
of timber nine Inches wide by three Inches
thick, placed singly, and a pile of bricks
about six Inches high, with a three-Inch
take-off. Over all these < fallacies n.rn
erolls riders passed in safety anl, a
- It appeared to rail coke s that
there was a tremendous jar in the ras • of
the larger obstacle, there was no dis arm
fort.
Mr. McDonnell li.ed a couple of ma
chines and rode first at a great rare and

He expo seel surprise un Oisfrj-b,
of such hu k could be negoila el wl!h< u
