Jerry Mureny, eppointed cratodlan of the government building In Olnein- nati at $2,000 a year, has served two terms In the Cinclunatl work house, It would not, however, be the proper thing to ¢ill him a workingman, although ke fs a “‘worker.” It has been diecovered that Honest Bill Ho!man ot jacts to the use of night. shirts, They never wear such things in his *‘deestrict,” he says, and it is not llkely that he will shock his Hoo. ier con- stitaency by Indulglog in any sush ex- travagance.

Jonx has called upon President Cleveland to urgo the ramoval of several republican postmasters in Kansas on the charge of offinalve partisanship, The offensive partisanship has not beon almed at Cleveland but St John, who says that these postmastors, who happan to bs edltors, continme to pubdlish scandals about him. A pEMOCRATIC paloon-keeper who has been appolated postmaster at Saline, Tlli- nols, compels peop'e to oall for thelr matl at hls ealoon. R.ther than do this they have given a whole:alo order to the for- mer postmaster, & buzluess man, to got thelr mail for them. In this way the distribaticn of the mail Is really left in the hands of a republican afier all, Twe New York Hvening Post eays that the Unlon Paclfic lawycrs have mado up thelr minds that Ocegon law prohibits a lease of thy Oregon ratlwry and navigation ccmpavy property.

Y ) preacher patronizod a soap dealer at the county fale to the extent of $5 for three cakes of soap. He really didu’c want the soap 80 much as he did the $10 bill which he #aw the swindler wrap inslde of one of the packsges, The duminfe, however, fallea to find the $10 blll, and the story getting ot he was called to ac- count by hia congregation, He made a full confession and asked forglveness, which was granted him. The cext time that preacher wants any sosp he will probably patronizs his old grocery store and take the regalalion three bars for a quarter. Axoraer jull-bird sppoln‘ment from Ohlo has been heard from., His name is Amos Luke, of Millerebarg, and he has been given s place in the surgeon- general's office, It fs charged that Luke served a term io the ponitentlary for breaking into a hcure and stesllsg $80, _and slso’ that he bas been teveral times indicted for larceny.

The gencral volume of busines: ol {ly Inoresses with the advance of the sea- won, and trade movements in all the wholesale centers aro raported as satifsc tory, while the feeling regarding the fa- ture 18 of the most hopefal character. A warked improvement {8 noticed In textile lines, while the trade Inboots and shoes, groceries and general merchancite shows » mater'al inorease. It should bo borne {0 micd, however, that the expansion of business Is noticeably greater than is us- uslly witnessed at this time of the year As a whole the sltuation may bo regsrded with moero confidence than existed a fow weeoks 8go. Values in nome lines have slightly advenced, but even where (here Is no tendency to high- er figures there ls more ateadiners, and the operatlona of buyosrs are not so fre- quently restrioted by the fear of a for. ther depreciation In prices. In the cot ton markets there has been but little chsnge of late. The movement of the new crqp has continued qalte active, and 1s reported in excess of Iast year at this time. Home coneumption is actlve, and exports are larger. Print clothes have experlenced & slight de- cline, due to mccumulated stocks, but tho general market for staple cottem goods has continued firm and a gocd ag gregate businees has been done by mili sgonts and jobbors. The wool trade shows unabated activity, and the up ward tendency cf prices contlnues. Western markets are represented as un- usually well clesned up for the timo cf year, and ecme of the western mlils have bean compelled to eeek supplies on the seaboard. The strength aud aclivi'y of the wool markets attest the improved coacitlon and proepects of the woolen goods trade. Desirable woolen and woratcd fabelos are large'y sold ahead of production, and on new orders manafacturers in many instances are gotting an advance in pricss propertloned to the enhanced coat f their raw mater- 8l There Fas been a conslderable change for the better in the condition of the iron and steel Indusiry, and the out- look in this department continues en- couraging. The volame of business in pig-lron way smaller last week, bat thers has b2on no weakening of valuse. There i8 & fair degree of actlvity in moat branches of the iron trade, and here and there a slight hardenlog of prices is noted, but there 13 no general upward tendency in values, An improved demand for iron Is reported at Oleveland, Youngstown, Sharon and other western poiats. The anthraclte coal {rade shows little changa, bat the prospests for an early improve- moant In business Is more favorable. Tae week’s fallures in the United States and Canada nu=mbar 178, as sgalast 203 tho pravious week and 165 the week before. The western and Pacific etatae furcished more than balf of the total namber of business suzpensions in the Uuited States last week. THE tendency In wheat, although fluc tuat'ng, has been upward daring the past week, Tae Philadelphla Record, in its weekly market review, says in regard to graln: **3everal features of the situstion have contribated to restrain short eelling and to invite more confident lnves'ment in antic!pation of batter pries. Among thess may ba noted the recea: decreaze in shipments to Eurape from Australia sud Iudia, snd the contluned small move- meut to nterlor polats in thls country, whera the recelpts ere running about fifty per cont lighter than a year ago. The emall crop movement la due largely to the reducsd crop yield and the unwil. lingaess of farmers to acyspteu rrent rales, bu:itis also attribatable {n a measure to the diverslon of attention t fall seed- ing in the west, and to the fact that In- terlor millers are paylng batter prices for whent than can bs realized at the com- mercial centras.” Tue fourth transcontinental raflroad, the Canadian Paclfic, will be completed in a few days, and wlll be opened for business clear through to Britlsh Culum- bla, Whkile such remarkable extension of the railway system has been golng on throughout the North Amerlcan continent, the construc ion of rallways on the Soath American continest has been pushed with great rapldity durlog the last few years South America will soon boast of a transcontinentsl line, the firat section of which extends from Rosario on the river Paraua, in the Argentine republic, to Villa Marla, 120 miles. The second seotion of 82 miles was bailt In 1873, and was followed by the construction of 76 miles to Villa Mercedes in 1876, In 1880 the road was extended to San Louis, a distance of 59 miles more, and In 1832 Ly Paz, 76 miles farther or, was reached. In Aprll last the ltne was extended elghty miles fur- ther, to Mendczs, from which polot a branch was bullt north to San Juan, 100 milee.
