DUN's REVIEW OF THE WEEK Jay Coun'd's Death Has Had a Slight Effect Upon the Bpeoulativs Market, NEW ORDERS NOT COMING IN RAPIDLY en Hosiness fias D1 0 Not nta A Week — Busi Exeept in Holiduy tnished In Vo Nouso State My ~Clonring Wall Stroet for s Notes New Yong, Dec. 2.—H. . Dun's weekly review of trade says: ‘The bozinning of gold exports in Novomber and their expected con tinuance this week, the doath of Mr. Gould and the unfavoradle reports from tho silver conference have somowhataffected all specu latve markets, There are also somo symp- toms of diminished activity in business, and while manufacturers aro generally occupied with orders taken some timo ago, thero js more complaint that new orders do not como forward us was expected. W hilethe volume of trade 1s still very lareo it 13 not surprising that there should be somewhat loss activity durine the remainder of the year, exoept in holiday lines, A set-back in speculation would be by no means an unmixed ovil, but there are no signs of a disturbance at pres-. ent, though money markets are working a little closer, At Pittsburg pig iron is In good demand and all the mills are well eniployed. The trading cluss is larzo at low prices, At Cl nd the dry goods trado is excel- lent and other business fair. Tho carriage trade at Cincinnati falls 10 per cont below that of last year, but the grocery trade is larger than last yoar, and collections aro satisfactor, At Indianapolis trade is very vrisk in holi- day goods and confectionery and at Detroit larger than last year in all lines, with gen eral collections good. Chicago reports & good wholesale trade, with satisfactory collections, but the return of ourrency from tho west issmall and money is strong at 7 per cent. Monoy is in very active demand at Mil- ‘waukee and business fairly good in spite of damp weather. Colder weather is needed at Minneapolis, where collections are only fair and ths fiour market dull. There and at St. Paul trade is, on tho whole, good. Slight declines in somo lines aro scen at Omaha, though wholesale trade 13 sausfac- tory. At St Louls business shows much strength, with especial promiso in holiaay lines, aud at KKansas City trade is quite satis factory, though receipts of cattle und grain fall off. At Louisville the outlook 13 considered favorable, but at Little Rock business is gloomy. ow Orleans trade is rather dull and : lower, with heavy receints, whilo re ceipts of sugar are large, but Lhe demand is 800d. At Richmord business isequal to last vear, fobacco manufacturers arc active und monoy is plenty, Broadstuffs have been stronger, which is natural in view of the very low prices, though western receipts of wheat have been 4,500,000 bushois in four davs, against Atlantic exports of only 524,000 bushels. A riso of ubout L contin” wheat aud oats and three-quarters of 1. contin corn, resulted from moderate transactions, but hogs and lard are slightly lower, and coffee declined a quarter; cotton rose to 10 cents, and re- acted to 077, sules again exceoding all records, being 2,506,000 bales for the week. Iron is weakor, with pressure 10 scll somo southern brands’ Coprer nas sold largely at 12 to 12!{ cents and lead is lower. Coal s fairly active and bituminous is scarce and dear.

Four of the A ugusta, Ga., sheeting and drill mills report a large business and good profits during last year, and this with the outlook for continued strong demand. No resson- able advance 1n the price of cotton can now curtail profits materially, for, as revorted to Bradstreet’s, mill owners at the south evi- dently have Tair stocks of low-priced raw material. In reply to our inguiry ns to stocks of low- priced cotton on hand at eastern cotton mills or contracted for by them, our Boston cor- respondent writes that cotton ¥oods manu- tacturers have sfocks of 8 cont cotton to carry them to April 1, and contracts for enough work at from 8 to 10 cents to Keep them buey until the middle of June, 1893.

WEEK 1 More Agitation Than Prices Show Has Been Folt by Dealors, New Youk, Dec 2.—Bradstreot's weekly review says: Speculation for the past week was outwardly dull, narrow and profassional to mdegreo. Beneath the surface, however, Wall streot was experieucing & greator agi- tatiou than appears 10 tho limited fHuctua- tlous in values, which coustituted the astual tradiag for the greater portion of the tiwe, The market has, in fact, simply been wait- ing for matters of importance to develop. Mpr. Gould’s wliess aud death ranks first in #fect upon the sentiment of those operators who Indulge in any aetivity, The prospeot of gold shipment on & large scalo has also beon a prominent factor in the procesdings, whilo the news from tho silver conforence was discussed with an interest that shows how keenly the street appreciates the bearing of tho fnwncial and ourrenoy problems that confront the country upon the ultimate courso of values, It must, however, be noted that the Brus sols conference was influential mainly 8o far a8 it affocted sentitent, [t has been gener- ally believed that the gathering wouid be uegative of results. The fact that the only sccioas proposition for an international agreament on the siiver question came from the Koglish delegition, and was submitted by a momber of the Rothschild family, was eminently caleulated to create surprise, while the utterances of tho geutloman in question, indicating plainly that failure o accomplish anytuing at Brussels would bo followed by dancer to the finances of tho world, tend to croato the impression that the possibilities of a succosstul result had been under-estimated. The favorable impres- sions due to this circumstance were, how ever, not lasting. [t was quickly reali that the de Rothschild proposition that rope should purchase 45,000,000 of silve vear for involved the real conc sion on the part of.linglana, while it would commit the United States for that neriod to the coatinuanceof the purchace of £4,000,000 worth of sitver.

First, the two parties will unite to orgunize the legislature, the aemocrats being given control of the senato and the in- dspendents the house. The legislature under control, the next important step agreed upon was the passage of a railroad bill establish- ing a maximum rate and abolishing the state board of transportation. The last was the clection of a Unitod States senator to suc- ceed Paddock, but by common consent all discussion of tho senatorial question is to bo deferred until aftes tho legislature is organ- ized and the two pactuers to ko deal find that they can work together successfully and in harmony. 1o probabllity of the independent mem | bers-clect abiding Ly the agrecment was also fully discussed, and the entiro list was care- fuily gone ovoer. Allare looked upon as re- liable but two memb These two, it was admitted, micht be counted upon to join hands with the republicans. In order to avoid any possible danger of a fuilure to | out the general pian agreed upon it decided to seat enougn of the contest- ants in Douglas county to give the combina- tion a majority outside of tho possiblo defec- tion of the two doubtful members. Wil | It was decidea to hold another joint con- forence at the city of Lincoln on the evening of December 31, at which it is expected every democratic and independent member-elect will bo present. At tais meeting the oficers for the two houses of the legislatura will be decided upon and ail arrangements for the organization verfected. In fact, it is pro- posed to organize both houses at this meet- ing on New Year’s eve, 5o that when tho legislature convenes the following Tuesday there wili be nothing to do but simply form- ally ratify the action of the joint caucus. In the meantime the state central commit- tees of both parties will be expected to meet and select members for a joint steering com- mitteo to take entire charge of the work of carrying out the plans of the combination. ——— Not from a Floanclal Standpolnt. “Ido not recommend Chamberlain’s Cough Cemedy from a financial standvoint for wo havo others in stock on which we make a larger profit,” savs Al Magginl, a prominent druggist of Braddock, Pa., “but becauso many of our customers have ' spoken ot 1t in the highest praise.

The heirs of the estate of William H. Craig, the Kansas City millionaire who died some months ago. win in their suit with the trustees of the Wesleyun university of Lin- coln, this state. During the month of January, 1888, Wil- lizam H. Craig wrote to Rev. C. F. Creigh- ton, presidont of the university, that ho would give the sum of $25,000 for the endow- ment of the Charles H. Fowler professorship of Christian ethics, providing tho trustees of the university would find some other party who would make an endowment of 50,000, This was acceptable to all of the parties con- cerned and there was a hustling to securethe £50,000 from the eastern friends of the school, but it was appareut that they did not suc- ceed, for later on, at a meoting of the trustees they approached Mr. Craig with the proposition ‘to take his gift, when turned over, and apply it in paying off some of the debts that had been incurred. Before such an agreement was reached, however, Craig died, and the heirs refused to pay the money, holding ~ that by the university trustoes changing the terms o their acceptance, thoy Lad waived their claims to the donation, When the estate reached the probate court, the trustees were on hand with their claim for the £25,000, seeking to estaolish their in- terestin the same. Tbe hearing was had some weeks ago and yesteraay Judge Eller handed down his opinion, in which he held that there was uoagrecment ever entered into and that for that reason the trustees of the university bad no claim against the es- tato, —_— i A Cure for Croap, If your chiliren are subject to croup, always keep a bottle of Chamberinin’s Cough Re.nody at hand.” Itqisa prompt and cortain cure.
