Over the spring wheat region the aver¬ age temperature was from five to ten de¬ grees below the normal.

The month of March was relatively dry throughout all districts east of the Mis¬ sissippi, except in Wisconsin and Florida.

DECISION AGAINST STRIKES. Merchants Affected are Entitled to In- junctions and Other Relief, Judge Billings, in the United States court, dered at New Orleans, Saturday, ren- an opinion in the suit of the gov- ernment and the agaicst'the Amalgamated council new officers of the various labor organizations which ordered the general strike in November last. An injunction against the organizations was asked for under the act of congress prohibiting combinations in restraint of trade. In an elaborate opinion, the court Bets aside every claim of the defendants and declares that the acts of the Amalga¬ mated council and the officers ol the union were unlawful in ordering a gen¬ eral strike, and that the merchants are entitled to injunctions and other relief. The decision diseusses fully the right of labor unions, and is far-reaching in its (Sects. As a result of the decision crim¬ inal posccution against the defendants would probably lie, but it is not yet known whether the United States au¬ thorities will proceed further against the alleged labor leaders.

SPRING TRADE. Bradstreet’s Eeport of Business for tlie Past week. Bradstreet’s report for the past week says: Cool and clear weather generally has improved without the prospect increase for in spring trade, but In central an distri¬ bution. the western states a fair movement of merchandise is reported, although prospects are improved north¬ west business continues retarded. The south remains quiet ns heretofore. Re¬ ports of improving trade characterize advices from western centers, where there are numerous arrivals of country buyers and orders for spring goods. In no previous spring have reports of the effect on general trade of bad roads southwest and northwest been so con- spicous as recently. Collections are only fair, with no serious complaints. Ex¬ ports of wheat from the United States for the week, both coasts, flour included, equal 2,875,122 bushels against 2,766,22 bushels the week before; 2,379,330 bush¬ els in the week a year ago and smaller quantities in like weeks in preceding years. The close of the month brings a falling off in volume of merchandise dis tributed from New Orleans, where cot¬ ton and rye markets are depressed while sugar is pressed and bouyaut. The pros¬ pect is still for a larger cotton acreage, but a reduced rece acreage is promised. The recent firmness of the market has developed into a decided tendency in prices to creep up in the face of narrow and inactive speculation. This address, much to the confusion of the bearish section of the professional traders, who rely upon the possibility of gold ship¬ ments or of a squeeze in money in the withdrawals of the money for the apt settlements throughout the country dis¬ tricts had created a considerable short interest.

NEW SOUTHERN INDUSTRIES, rh« Chattftnobga tradesman Gites Some Interesting Statistics. The quarterly statement of southern industries prepared by the Tradesman* of Tennessee, thows that for the first quar¬ tet of 1899 the new industries establish¬ ed ctceed those *1 the first quarter of 1899 by 198, while for the first quarter of this year only 8 developed companies hate been incorporated» during the same period for last year 27 were formed.

That the extensive timber interests of the south are not only ttracting attention, but capital, is shown >y the fact that 105 new woodworking plants have been established during the pa t qtlarter fts against 122 in 1892 and 141 in the first quarter of 1841.

Seventy-six textile industries were es- ablished in the quarter as against 28 in he first quarter of 1892 and 45 ia the same period of 1891; and the very gen¬ eral character of this development is shown by the fact that only 3 s‘ates— Arkansas, Kentucky and West Virginia, sre not represented in this total. Ala¬ bama leads the list with 22; North Caro¬ lina, 16; Georgia, 13; South Carolina, 8, and Virginia, 5; Mississippi, 4, arid Tennessee and Texas 3 each, and Florida >nd Louisiana 1 each. This quurter shows 58 flour and grist mills established as against 29 for the same quarter of 1892. The increasing demand for cotton seed oil and its pro¬ ducts, together with the advance in prices which has recently taken place, accounts for the large number of new oil mills or¬ ganized during the quarter; a total of 40 is shown as against 10 in 1892 and 8 in the fame quarter of 1891, over half of the total number being located in Texas, aud the remainder scattered throughout the other cotton growing states.
