R. 6. Dun & Co. Say the Tone Has
Perceptibly Improved.
THE OUTLOOK IS BETTER.
And Although Tratio ti Not Aotlre, the
Pro.pect. Are Mach Brighter for
Bttdnees Now Than They
Were • Week Ago.
New York, July 8.—R. G. Dan &
Co. *8 weekly review of trade says;
The tone in business circles has per
ceptibly improved. One the' whole,
there has been a little better distribu
tion of goods to consumers, and perhaps
the run demanding orders given some
months ago is not quite as frequent as
it was last week. The more hopeful
symptoms are gladly noted, but while
the causes of depression remain, it
would be rash to calculate that difficul
ties will not reappear. Soon large snms
of money will be required to move the
crops, aud in- the present state of the
money markets some stringency is not
improbable. __
Boston Reports a little more activity
and financial relief is expected daring
the month. Shoe factories are generally
closed for repairs, and not many buyers
are seen, • leather being dull and accu
mulating. Rubber goods are qniet and
crude rubber lower. Dry goods are
quiet, but prospects thought to be fa
vorable.
Cotton mills hold small stocks, bat
print cloths are dull and lower. Wool
ens are quiet and the clothing trade is
quiet, with prices cut to clear off stocks.
At Philadelphia a better feeling ex
ists in’banking circles and there is con
siderable trade in manufactured irouAt
low prices. Iron has another drop at
Pittsburg, though many furnaces are
closing. A redaction in the cost is ex
pected from the wage settlement. Cin
cinnati reports little improvement, with
close money. At Cleveland manufac
turing is unusually dull. At Detroit
many fall orders are cancelled on ac
count of the decline in iron ore silver,
wheat and wool. Indianapolis reports
many manufacturers idle. At Chicago
the borrowing demand is still heavy
and banks conservative. There is much
complaint of poor collections.
Receipts of most products show a de
crease compared with last year, east
bound shipments decreased 17 per cent,
and clearings 11 per cent. Milwaukee
irts fair trade for the season and
polls the same, with reasonably
-’lections, though the lumber
decreases with the financial
pressure. At St. Paul trade is restrict
ed, but at both cities a better feeling
prevails and crop prospects are favora
ble. At St. Louis trade is qniet, but
collections very fair, while the banks
are still most cautious. At Kansas City
trade is fair for the season, collections
below the average and receipts of cattle
liberal, but of hogs light. St. Joseph
reports collections slow and money
very light, and Omaha reports a good
grocery trade.
At Denver, several of the suspended
banks are expected to resume, but mer
chants are countermanding orders, and
the silver mines luive generally stopped.
Nashville and Knoxville report a bet
ter feeling, and Montgomery quiet
trade; at Little Rock business is very
dull, and at Augusta and Atlanta qniet,
with money comparatively easy. Gal
veston reports the situation fairly good
in thesibaqks,' wjth few failnres and
prospepjijt drifithfethan an average crop;
tbe banks ^at&for customers, but dis
courage new loans. New Orleans notes
no improvement. Money light and col
lections slow.but crop reports are excel
lent, except from the overflowed sec
tions. At Mobile the banks are more
free. Nearly all produce markets are
higher than a week ago, in spite of
more favorable crop reports, money be
ing easier.
* Wheat has advanced 3 cents, but
though there is. some gloomy reports
from the Dakotas, the general outlook
it better.
ATTACKED THE ARMY BILL.
A CentralUt Bitterly Denounced the
Measure In the Reichstag.
Berlin, July 8. — Herr Groeber,
Centralist, who in the last reichstag
voted in opposition to the army bill,
spoke against the hew measure in the
name of the Central party.
The Centralists -he declared were
firmly opposed to the bill, and all newly
elected representatives of the party
were pledged against it.
From a military point of view, the
bill was needless, and from an economi
cal standpoint it was ruinous. It would
be better for the government to enter
into an organic federation with Austria
than 'to increase the army superflu
ously. The present government’s game
to secure a mousetrap majority was an
undignified one.
Doubtless if the house knew how the
government intended to cover the ex
tra cost involved by measures, it would
not be able to find a majority.
A Ficht In Carrollton.
Carrollton, Ga., July 8.—A lively
little scrimmage occurred here between
Sheriff Hewitt and Editor Sharpe of The
Free Press, on account of an editorial
on the sheriff’s conduct in a certain
criminal trial in which the sheriff was
knocked down, but not badly hart.
The two men were separated, but the
matter may not be yet settled.
The Hearing Postponed.
Macon, July 8.—Yesterday Judge
C. C. Smith has postponed the hearing
as to the sale of the G. S. & F. railroad
till next Tuesday at- It o’clock. Hon.
Clifford Anderson, who represents the
Macon Construction' company, was sick
and his clients are opposed to the sale.
The Visible Cotton Supply.
New York, July 8.—The total visi
ble supply,.of cotton for the world is
8.826,826. of which 2,325,926 is Ameri
can, against 8,274,093 and 2,692,873, re
spectively," last year. Receipts at all
interior towns, 9,584. Receipts at plan
tations, 6,770. Crop in sight, 6,452,095.

A CENSORIOUS SPIRIT.
Tbe Religious Hearald remarks;
Dr. J. B. Jeter disliked nothing so mnch
as a carping censori >m spirit. He said of it:
"Its bitter fruits are alienation, strifes,the
disgrtce of the church, tbe curse of souls,
the discouragement of good men. and the
triumph of the uagodly. These faultfinders
well-nigh reverse the apostolic injunction.
•Speak evil of no man,’ and speak evil of
all men.” One day a brother came to him
finding fault of the American Baptist Pub
lication Societv Dr. Jeter heard him
patiently and replied as follows: “I have
no fault to find of that Society. I have
known it from its beginning, and I have
never known a society more wisely man
aged.
If you are not willing to co-operate with
anything which does not in all resp-cts
meet your approval, there is no man and
no society With which you co-operate.
And you could not, on that basis, co
operate with yourself, for you know that
often yon fail to measure up to your duty.”
Then, warming up, Dr. Jeter added: "If
you mean to be consistent and logical, there
ia nothing left yon but to go ont and dig a
hole in the ground and put yourself into it
and have nothing to do with any one on
earth, for all of us fail of reaching even
our own poor ideal of what we ought
lobe and to do.”

and ail other throat and lung tremble.
