He was rejectod last week on the grounds that the collsge from which he graduated was not an institution in good standing. He will be granted n new hoaring at a future da Dr. G. W. Willlamson of Omaha, formo with Betts & Betts, wrote and telegraphcd from Denver to the board, withdrawing his application, and ordered his credentials sent to Denver. Dr. 5.

Dun & Co.'s Weekly Review offI'rade says: General busi- ness is remarkably active and increasing in volume at the west, improving at the south and distinctly less dull than it wasa week ago ab eastorn cities. Collections aro im- proving in nearly ali directions, as the lib- eral movement of crops enables tho farmers to settle their accovnts aud to make pur- chases for the coming season. The moncy markets here are not stringent, at nearly all important points being quiet and easy, though with a noticeable improvement in the demand, These signs plainly promise a strong trade, fall and winter, unless disturb- ances which cannot now be forescen should interrupt The reports from whole mote favo provement in trade phin groceries are active ar. At Cincinnati and clotbing active, At is good and the tone co is inactive. At Detroit trade and manufac- turers are fully up to last year's mark. At Chicago increase appears of a third in re- ceipts of hides, dressed beef, flour and corn, though new corn moves slowly, and receipts of rye are three times last year's, butsome decrease appears in oats, burley,cured meats, lard, checse, butter and wool. The dry goods trade is mu larger than a year ago, the receipts of cattlo larger by 15,000 head for the weok; the shoe and clothing trade large, and business eradually increasing in all lines, At Minneapolis the lumver trade is very good, prices rising and shipments for the week 2,000,000 foot more than lust year: the flour mills again beat the record “with 196,000 barrels, und general trade is good there and at St. Paul. At Omaha and Kan- sas City business is satisfactory, grain_and cattle receipts being above the aver- age and trade in ogricultural imple- ments ~ active, St Louis trade shows en other cities are on tho able. At Boston the im- is slow. At Poiladel- with a dectine in rotail trade is brisk Jand business t, though iron is vory fair. At New Orieans u botter feeling is seen with large receipts of cotton and fair of rice and sugar, and money in active demand. Av Savannab trado holds well, cotton re- coipts reaching 33,000 in one day, ana at Jacksonville trade is steady with bright prospects. # 5 Wheat has fallen 43{ cents with receipts at the west of 500,000 bushels in four days and exports of 1,250,000 bushels. Corn is 3 and 3! higher for spot and vats 1) cents higher. Cotton receip! en surpass those of tho same week last year by 53,000 bales, ana the price fuils u sixteenth, with sales of 914,000 bales her Coffec is onc-cighth of & cent lower; oil 1 cent lowers; lard, onc-eighth of a cont lower, and hogs have fallen 30 cents per 100 pounds, with no change in pork. Sugar, both raw and granulated, is some- what lower with quite an active market. In general the speculative movement appears to tend toward lower prices for products, the supplies being unusually larg “The iron industry looks strong. —Bar, plate and structural wills are fairly em- ployed, but prices aro low. The boot and shoo manufacture shows o sign of more active demand and the ship- ments are close to last year The wool manufacture shows more demand for dress goods and stocks of these are relatively low, while for men's spring goods the orders of clothiers are far behind. he merchandise exports for the past two weeks have exceeded those of the correspond- ing weeks last year, while imporis fali far below those of a yearago, so that the balance of trade in products strongly favors con tinued imports of wold. The business failures occurring through- out the country during the last seven days number 249 s compared with totals of - last week.

Engiucers conversed with do not think that the switch was tam- pered with, and from their personal knowl edge speak'of the derailment of trains from the suddon springing of the switch, They admit a feeling of nervousness whenever tnoy have approache® this switch at a bizh rate of speed.
