Having, after i«>ug and careful study and great
ftxpeiiae. succeeded in perfecting- the above re
[erred to machine, we offer it now to the public as
the most powerful, safe and expeditious compress
in use
Wholly of merul. reducing its risk of destruction
much in case of fire, and working with scarcely any
friction, its movements are smooth and noiseless;
and as« the whole power is directly applied to the
bale without intervention of levers, coir gearing or
pther devicvs common t© other forms of com-
presses. its work is performed at less cost of fuel
per baie than any press in use.
When used in combination with Riesel's Bale
•tor, which discnarges the pressed bale as soon
as the press opens, thereby relieving the men from
tiiat labor, 10U bales per hour can be compressed
ltd tied.
) The capacity of the press is 2000 tons, and this is
Applied to each bale pressed
These presses are built in the very best manner,
and with all the care that skill and experien e can
command, and are grnaranfeed in all their details.

Tho General Market—Cotton Putures
Higher.
Nkws Office. November 15.—The weather
throughout the day was cloudy, cool and raw, with
an occasional burst of sicklv sunshine during the
afternoon. The condition of trade in the general
market was quiet., and the fluctuations in values
during the day were of an inconsequential charac-
ter. There is no change to note in shears, the mar
ket remaining steady, and the receipts of new crop
Louisiana by the afteruoon steamer aggregated
2210 barrels, all of which had not been lauded at
nightfall. In lard quotations remain unchanged,
although there is a tendency to weakness. A lot of
bright Texas molasses of the new crop was placed
upon the market and sold at 42^c per gallon,
although this is considered an outside figure, and
t..e rauge of prices is given as from 36c to 42c.
Grain is quiet and unchanged, with but little
moveraeut. In hides and wool it is the old, old
story of small movement and unchauged market.
In general groceries there is no change to note.

higher, the sales aggregating 101,000 bales At
New Orleans the spot market closed Arm and l-16c
higher, with sales of 14.300 bales. The sales of fu-
tures reached 54,000 bales, and the market closed
steady at an improvement of C^IO points. In
the local market there was no change in spots,
the sales amcmnting to 1858 bales, and
the closing tone being officially reported as
steady. Options evidenced a much better feeling,
closing firm at an advance of 10(^11 points on last

Money, Stocks and Bends.
New Y'ork. November 15.—Governments firm.
States quiet. With the exception of Canadian
stocks the general market to-day is firmer and a
majority ot active stocks sh-»w fractional gains
over closing prices last night. Attempts made yes-
terday and to day fo depreciate the market have
resulted in a considerable rurease of outstanding
short interest in New Y'ork Central. Lake Shore,
Michigan Central, Lackawanna and Union Pacific.
Otherwise than this there has been no change of
importance in the general situation.
Tbe Post says; Th^re is still talK of trouble in the
Iowa pool, b it it is not generally believed there
will be any serious complications. Ofiicers of the
Union Pacific R.ulway company state the decrease
in the gross earnings for Sepb-mber and October
together wiii not be greater than $.'00,000 as com
pared with the same monrhs last year. At the
same ifl'e of operating expeuses last year 47 per
cent oi this would imply a decrease of probably
5125,000 in the net earnings for the two months.
But it is well understood that there has been
some cutting of rates by competition with
the Denver and Rio Grande, and also that tbe
Union Pacific company has been building and oper-
ating considerable new mileage branch lines not
completed yet. These two items may have in-
creased the proportion of operating expenses to
what they were in 1881, viz.. 51 45-100per cent., and
if this was the case during two months, the de-
crease in gross earnings and increase of operating
expenses together would make an approximate
decrease of say $260,000 in the net earnings for two
months. Transactions. 241,000 shares.

London has fourteen terminal railway sta-
tions from which no fewer than 2*302 trains de-
part daily. Nearly 1000 of those leave between
10 a. m. aud 10 p. m.: 320 trains leave daily
from one station. Referring to the under-
ground railway, this wonderful line forms a
complete hell--or inner circle—around the
whole of the inner part of London. Between
Farringdon aud Moorgato streets 568 trains
run every week day, neariy twenty-four trains
an hour, or neariy every three minutes. The
Metropolitan Underground Railway company
conveys about 70.000,000 passengers anuually,
or nearly 15,000,000 per week.
Preparing- to Adopt the New Time
Standard-
[Chicago Tribune.!
Mr. O. S. Lvford, superintendent of the
Chicago and Eastern Illinois company, bas is-
, sued a general order announcing that, Novem-
ber 18, 1S83, at 10 o'clock a. m., the standard
of time on the < hicago and Eastern Illiuci3
will be made nine minutes slower to conform
to the time of the nineteenth meridian, desig-
nated as central tim*. All operators of this
company will be on duty at that hour to re-
ceive time from the general office at Chicago,
and will change their clocks and watches ac-
cordingly, and conductors and engineers will
also regulate their watches to conform to the
new standard.
The Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific has
also issued a general notice announcing that,
on and after 12 o'clock noon of Sunday, No-
vember 18, 1883, the standard time of this road,
will l>e known as the central time, nine minutes
slower as Chicago time. All-day telegraph
operators are instructed to be on duty not later
than 11:45 a. n».. Sunday, November IS. and '
remain until dismissed. All officers ana em
nloyes, whose duties require t at they should
have, correct time, will, when practicable, re-
port at the most convenieut telegraph office at
the above named time, and verify such change
as directed herein, viz:
At precisely 12 o' lo^k noon, by the present
standard, w hich will be signaled irom Chicago
as usual, all time pieces will be set back just
nine minutes, ami 12 o'clock noon by the new
si an lard will then be signaled in the usual way
from the Chi< ago office. Both of these time
signals must be repeated to branch and inter-
mediate offices that are not reached from Chi-
cago direct by the division office of each train-
master's division, or by the operator at branch
connections.
'* It must he apparent to all.*' says Vice-presi-
dent Kimball in his order, 44 that this change
must be correctly made, and the utmost care
must be exercised by trainmasters, road mas-
ters. all foremen and agents, and each will be
held strictly responsible in his own jurisdic-
tion in knowing that all their respective em-
ployes obtain this change correctly.*7
The indications now" are that'all the roads
centering in this city, with the exception of
the Illinois Central, will change to nineteenth
meridian time November 18, or as soon there-
after as practicable.
The Illinois Ceutral officials say they stand
ready to make the change as soon as the city
clocks are changed to standard or nineteenth-
meridian time, but owing to the large number
of suburban trains they have to run tbtw can
uot use any other thau Chicago time. If the
Chicago clocks are changed to standard, that
will be Chicago time, and the Illinois Cen-
tral, of course, could not do otherwise than
adopt it.
The Advance in 22ast-Bound Freight
Hates.
[Chicago Tribune ]
The action of the trunk line presidents in
ordering an advance of five cents per 100
pounds on all classes of east-bound freight, to
take effect November 30, is looked upon a's a
g<i>d stroke of policy to stimulate east bound
freight traffic. Formerly the limit of time in
announcing advances in rates was ten days.
Now they give nearly a month's notice, ex-
pecting thereby to induce shippers between
now and then to ship all they can at the pre-
vailing rates. The long time given also indi-
cates that the trunk line presidents are by
no means certain that the advance can
be made. By the time the new rates are to go
into effect new complications may have arisen
that may make an advance impracticable.
Much will depend upon the attitude the Dela-
ware, Lackawanna and Western and the New
York, West Shore and Buffalo roads will as-
sume. The former still refuses to join the pool,
and the latter after its completion, about Jan-
uary 1, will no doubt take the same indepen-
dent position. The Grand Trunk has been tem-
porarily mollified by granting it all the conces-
sions it demanded, but there is no telling how
long this road will continue to act with the
other trunk lines. The evident design in giv-
ing the Grand Trunk ail % asked was to gain
time and keep up higt at least uatil the
West Shore road is completed.
Dardanelle, Are.-Dr. M. M. Croom says;
44Brown's Iron Bitters is the best medicine in the
world and is effecting miraculous cures."
