MANUFACTURED ONLY BY
THE PUSEY&JGNES COMPANY
"Wilming-ton, Delaware-
Having, after long and careful study and great
expense, succeeded m perfecting the above re-
ferred to machine, we offer it now to the public as
the most powerful, sate and expeditious compress
in nse.
Wholly of metal, reducing its risk of destruction
much in case of fire, and working with scarcely any
friction, its moveiuenta are smooth and noiseless;
and as trie whole power is directly applied to the
bale without intervention of levers, cotr gearing or
other devices common to other forms of com-
presses. its work is performed at less cost of fuel
per bale than any press in us«. •
When used in combination with Riesel's Bale
Ejector, which discharges the pressed bale as soon
as the press opens, thereby relit ring the men from
that labor, 100 bales per hpur can be compressed
and 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 experience can
command, and are guaranteed in all their details.

It is the most powerful compressor in the world.

have now each compres**<l 50$.OOP to 6»0,000 bales,
without defect or appreciable wear.
Its marvelous success is well jrrounded. because:
1. It is by far simplest in ceBstructaou, there-
fore least liable to disorder er breakage.
2. It has fewer points in motion, consequently
less wear and friction than any other
3. Their immense weight "and strength make
them the cheapest in use in the ea«i. beoause the
most durable, and always ready for the " rush " of
business.
4. Its wedge shaped rack and cycloidal rectors
secure a progressive leverage nicely adjusted to
overcome the increasing density of the bale.
5. It is annually savibg hundred* of thousands

to the value of each crop.

should be ordered at once.

General Market Quiet—Bacon High-
er—Candles Advanced—Spot Cot-
ton Quiet but Steady—Futures Dull.
Nets Oj^pics, April 23.—Business ia the general
market is quiet, but prices as a rule are steady,
Bacon is quoted bigbrr, to meet recent ad
vances in the West. Lard ft also firm and high-
er on inside prices. Flour is quiet, but steady and
unchanged. Chickens are firm at $5 00&5 50 per
dozen. Candles have advanced in Western mar
kets, and prices here are advanced He. Eggs are
steady at previous figures. Staple groceries, vege
tables and fruits are steady and unchauged, Hides
are dull but unchanged- Some wool is beginning
to arrive, but prices as yet are nominal.
Cotton on the spot ruled dull but steady, with no
changes to note in any of the markets. The re
ceipts continue large, those of the last three days
almost doubling the corresponding days last year.
Futures rule dull, with little disposition to operate
on an extensive scale manifested in any of the
markets. The continued large receipts depress
the market to some extent, while the belief that
the bulk of the remainder of this season s crop is
in control of the speculators makes operators cau
tious about goinz short. At Liverpool futures
opened very dull, but partly 1 point higher, and
closed fiat, but a point higher than Saturday. At
New York futures opened dull, ruled quiet but
steady, and closed dull and easy, but 1&3 points
higher than Saturday. Futures at New Orleans
were dull all day, closing dull and within a point
of !>aturday's figures. Futures in this market
opened quiet but steady, ruled dull but steady, and
closed steady and 1©4 points higher than Satur
day.

NEW YORK LETTER.
Railroad Notes—Sterling, Etc.
[Special Correspondence of The News.]
New Y'ork, April 19.—Mr. Pierrepont Morgan
cables the ratification of the Wabash lease to the
Iron Mountain by the holders of the former securi
ties abroad. The terms of the lease are similar to
those of the Missouri, Kansas and Texas to the Mis-
souri-Pacific, and the Wabash, by the lease, becomes
virtually a part of the Missouri-Pacific system,
which now controls 10.000 miles of road, the largest
under one system in the world.
There were further sales of St. Joe preferred at
93<&91}4, and common at 42. The report to-day is
that the Quincy will soon have the control of'St.
Joe through a purchase of the common stock.
The strength of Jersey and Reading lies to a
great extent in the well averred fact that at the
meeting of the Jersey Central directors in this
city, on the 10th of May next, a long lease of the
latter road to the Reading will be executed. As
the terms are said to be very advantageous to both
companies, a marked improvement in the valut of
the securities of each is anticipated. The Balti-
more and Ohio road arefito have the use >f the
Jersey's track for an outlet to the seaboard.
Sterling was difficult to quote to day. The
market was quite dull, and rates, perhaps, were
steady on rather a wide basis, say 4.8^^^4.83 and
85^4.85 }r£.
The Manitoba road increased its earnings the
second week of April $68,000, and the Alton $6865.

resident Ackerman, of the Illinois Central, now
in this city, represents matters alone the line of
road satisfactory, and the outlook for business
good.
It is understood the QuincyTs negotiating with
the Baltimore and Ohio for the use of its wires on
the expiration of its contract with the Western
Union, but should the Quincy buy the St. Joe it is
likely a renewal of the Western Union contract
would go with the purchase.
J. M. Eddy, president of the Fort Worth and
Denver Railroad company, who is visiting New
York in the interest of his road, says that the busi
ness of the road is largely and steadily increasing,
and that the company is now preparing to haul
11 o.OOO head of stock cattie from Southern Texas
to Wichita Falls, the terminus of the road, at a nec
revenue to the Fort Worth aud Denver company
of 40 cents per head.
