Suez Canal Will Transport Gasoline.The Suez canal has heretofore been

closed to tank steamers carrying Inflammablematerial In bulk, but this restrictionhas been modified to the extent of per-mining some sucn crans to pass tnrougnthe canal. It la now probable that the raisingof this embargo will have the effect oflowering the price of gasoline in Europeand incidentally of booming the automobilebusiness of the old world.

Great Lakes Better Equipped.The opening of the season of the Great

Lakes finds the lower ports better equippedthan ever before for. the work of unloadingores and other cargoes from the boats.Daring the past winter thirteen electricplants have been laid at Lake Erie portsby one construction firm alone, which hasmade the installations for three differentore-handling companies. By quickly loadingand unloading these boats the annualcapacity of the crafts is Increased so thatthe great outlay for the machinery Is entirelywarranted.

Concrete Poles.One hundred poles of concrete for transmissionpurposes have been ordered by a

railroad In Canada, and are to be givena thorough trial In competition with wood,which Is more accessible at this point thanIn parts of the United States, where sucha trial would be more favorable to the concrete.These poles are made In a mold andIn section are square with the cornerschambered off. A ."50-foot pole, to withstanda weight of ,000 pounds, will weigh aboutone ion, wmitr a puic ui me sctjne lengin 10a weight of 1.000 pounds, will weigh about1,300 pounds.The cost of concrete poles varies with the

location, but generally speaking, It is aboutone-third that of steel. As compared withwood the first cost Is greater, but this Isoffset by the economy of maintenance andby the fact that fewer poles are required tocarry the same load. In actual experienceconcrete poles have withstood a sixty-milewind which would have certainly demoralizedwooden poles.

Uniform Booth Construction.The plan for uniform decorations at

shows and expositions which originated inthis country, does not meet with favor inF.ngland, where the Idea is to be inauguratedin connection with a rrcat automobiledisplay at the Olympia in 1-ondon. Thepi 'position is very adversely criticisedthroughout Great Britain. The schemecontemplates uniform booth constructionand decoration, which Is the only way aharmonious general display may be secured,and In this country it has met withgeneral approval.
