New Ytork, Dec. 31—The year that closes
with this issue of our weekly letter has
been, 3n somo respects, one of the red
letter periods of our commercial and
financial Interests. It followed three suc
cessive years of almost unprecedented de
pression and disturbance of confidence,
consequent upon -the Imperilled .position
of our monetary basis. Tho national elec
tion had defeated *tho silver faction, but
(by a majority which did not suffice to
immediately restore confidence. When
tho Republican iparty camo into’power,
with 'the president's declarations in favor
of sound money and the passage of c
tariff calculated to remedy the effects
of tihe WWson act, a wave of revived c6n-
fldence swept over the whole country, and
from midsummer do tho end of the year',
there has ibeon one continuous revival of
business. Providence, too, has been pro-
pjUous to our wcdfi&re. At a time when
<tho failure of -the cereal crops was gen
eral throughout Europe, our harvest was
abundant, and wo “have been able do ex
port at high .prices unprecedented quan
tises of wheat and corn. At -the begin
ning of the revival, important sources of
consumption were blocked toy large accu
mulations of unmarketable products, the
most of which have since been disposed
of at some recovery of prices, thereby
preparing oho way for a profitable In
crease of production during f he coming
Simultaneous with this recovery Jn the
home markets, we have ibeen favored
wjth an extraordinary Increase in our ex-
pont trade; the shipments of merchandise
for tho first eleven months of ithe year
baying amounted to $974,600,000 against
lh% < 11^.300.^0 Jn 1895, 1740 -

in m to past year, most of

provement. For the ten months ending

were $187,506,000. tempered With $168,TOO.OOJ
In 1296c showing an Increase of 1112 per
cent. The effect of -this eudden recovery,
together with the conclusive evidence it
afforded that the general trade of the
country was undergoing a thorough re-
cup-ration, became apparent 1n an active
speculation in aecurlt'es. the effect of
which upon prices Is shown in the fol
lowing comparison of the quotations for

The great rise here shown was followed
toy <a fall of 10 to 12 poi.ms. and the year
closes with a r.inge of -vulucs averaging

vn« f«.x months of <the recovery.

improvement In every department or in

1838.
These, Jn -brief, are the achlevmmts of
the -last six months of recuperation from
the effects mainly of 'the disturbance of
confidence Cn our monetary system which
broke out In 1893. The results are less im
portant as accomplished facts -than for
what they foreshadow. We see in them
only the (beginning of an era of great Jn-
dus.il a 1 revival and expansion. During
:he five years that our material interests
have been Jn a condition of collapse, we
ba-vo -mado an addttCon of 8,009,000 16 our
population, most of which must be re
garded as godrtg ifo the increase of our
productive capacity—to swell the produc-
•Mon of our manufactures rather than of
aigii;cultural -produce. Within this period
•.ve have ibeen subjected to a necessity fo>
di mln.'shlng the costs of .production which
•together 'with the new productive (inven
tions. has enabled us to adapt ourselves
to the constantly declining tendency of
pn’ices: and conspicuous foots clearly de
monstrate that. In certain Important in
dustries. we have already tcached a* po
sition where we can compete successfully
In 'the foreign markets with the fore
most industrial nations of -the world.
Thi s -Is an achievement of stupendous Im
portance. iFor. as already saCd, wo have
reached a point In our national develop
ment ait which nearly our entire large
Increase of population must go into In
dustries other than agricultural; and that
makes it imoeratCve that we toe able to
compete with other countries in the alt-
contrcOllng factor of price. It is In the
highest degree gratifying ithat we seem
to be reaching that 'posltfon wilthout the
inerventlon of a great Industrial crash,

Atlanta, Jan. 2.-—Today Tom Cyruf,
the condemned murderer, who is to be
hanged Friday next In Fulton county
Jail, spent his last Sunday or. earth re
ceiving a few of his friends, who culled
to tee him for (tho purpose of assisting
him In preparing his eoul 'to meet Its
maker. Cyrus had’ many cailors, among
them several ministers, who read him
portionse of the. Bible, and then prayed
for him. He seemed 'to bo perfectly
reconciled <o his fate and ready to go to
the far beyond, at any moment he Is
called.
Cyrus’ case I« a peculiar one 4n this,
that he admits hjs guilt, and says that
he should be made to suffer for his
crime. He docs not get off the old story
about liquor and bad company being
the cause of his trouble. He killed -the
woman Annie Johnson from a feeling
of jealaU-ry, nothing more, and when
he had done so gave himself up, makin
tho statement tha't he had committed
murder and that he did not want to
dodge the responsibility.
Every movement made Jn his behalf
was toy friends who came to him with
out hlo seeking. He asked no one to help
him out of his trouble, hired no lawyers
io defend him and. In short, ha» been
absolutely Indifferent to his fate. While
ne Js free to admit that life Is still dear
•jo him, aud 'that he would like to re
maln^ on earth a while longer, still he
will.make mo personal effort to do so,,
and it ie doubtful if he wotold.break jail
.f he had an opportunity. His peculiar
conduct has had the effect of enlisting
rhe sympathy of Sheriff Nelms and
many others have tried to help him In
many ways in his -trouble.

Atlanta. .Tan. 2 —The many friends In
Maccn of Capt. Jas. W. Loyd, who for
several years fl’led the Important offl e
of city marshal of Atlanta, will regret
to learn that he is critically ill at his
home In this city. He has been con
fined to his room fot several weeks.
Capt. Loyd was born in Atlanta and
ha* always resided hero. Ills father
kept th** first hote’ Atlanta ever had.
and It was up n the balcony of this
hotel that Judxe O ne assaulted and
cut Alexander H St.-phmH 'luring the
presidential campaign of Bell ond

Breckinridge and La' y
hairmau Enubs.. •» uuis a Large Ap
propriation for Pol c* Department.
Atlanta, Jan. 2.—Chairman James W.
English, of the board of police commls-
sioiieus will make an aggric-slve ll^ht
for on increases 1n 'tho eppropriatloa to
run this department next year. More
men and more .money -will be the slogan
of Chairman Eng.teh, and in this de
mand he mil have the earnest support
of the entire .board.
About a year ago a wave of retrench
ment and reform pasted over the city,
which was felt by all the city depart
ments, the police coming in for Its share.
The patrolmen were cut from $2.15 to $5
per day, and the offlcara In like manner
had their pay scaled down. The now
council will toe asked to restore wagee to
the figure which prevailed before t)ie>
cut, and in addition will ibe urged to
make such additional appropriation to
the police fund as -will allow the com
missioners to employ twenty more pa-
trolmbn.
The present police force consists of one
chief, three captain*, four sergeants,
one cap.aon of detective department
a ml. eight detectives, two station house
sergeants, tiwio engineer?, two hostlers
and one hundred and twenty patrolmen.
It is- generally oonoed-d 'that the force
:s eritif-ely too small to give proctection
to life and property, and for this reason
the increase h necejsary.
It\js believed that Capt. English, who
will represent .the too rd toefore council,
will succeed"Jn having the appropriation
inctedsed. He has been -a -member of the
tooard of police comm.asloncrs for a long
number of years, and to his energy and
influence is due much of the credit that
Atlanta clalnw for her present police
force.

t'own of Lexington Requested 1,000
Vncclnn Points,
Atlanta, *Jan. 2.—A telegram of (the
hurry up order has been received at tho
executive office from Lexington re
questing 'that one thousand vaccine
points be forwarded to that point at
once. Tho message says that a small
pox epidemic Is 'threatened In that
‘-own. The size of the order, one thou
sand points, staggered Maj. Warren, as
he read the dispatch, in view of the
fact that only -two hundred vaccine
points have heretofore been sent to
an infected section. Then the genial
secretory got to thinking that If one
thousand points wero needed to satisfy
a locality'only threatened by a disease,
what would be tho demand when the
scourge became an epidemic.
Maj. Warren had the usual two hun
dred points forwarded, and will await
results. These points cost the state
$G0 per thousand. Now to send the
same number to every county in the
state would cost Georgia $8,280 and
possibly a good deal more than this
figure, as the counties containing
large cMies In them would doubtless
want several thousand each. It Is
hardly possible, hovyever, that much
more money will be needed to stamp
out the disease in this state, an In local
ities where It made its appearance over
a month or more ago smallpox Is now
very nearly extinct. The city of At
lanta had more cases In all probability
than all other portions of the state put
together. The discaso has been con
quered here, at a cost of about $2,500
to the city. #
