Dunn’s Review of Trade.
While failures were the smallest ever
know in any quarter since 1892, and busi-
ness payments through banks the largest
by $268,000,000 ever known in September,
the speculators who profess auxiety about
Cuba, or fever at the South, or a municipal
election, still have some influence. Help-
ing them just now is the fact that after ex-
traordinary purchases for replenishment of
stocks from any section or town there must
necessarily be for a time less buying from
that quarter. Yet business is still increas-
ing, the productive force steadily enlarges,
the distribution of wages affords an in-
creasing fund for purchases, and the founda-
tions are laid for a larger business here-
after. The week’s exchanges are 8.8 per
cent. larger than in 1892.
Crop reporters who have widely differed
now agree in putting the yield of wheat
about 580 to 590 million bushels, which is
nearly 200 million bushels more than will
be required for home use, keeping stocks
as they were July 1st, the lowest for seven
vears. As foreign reports indicate a larger
demand, and exports since July 1st have
been nearly as heavy as in the best past
year, with 2,985,784 bushels from Atlantic
ports, flour included, for the last week,
against 2,240,571 last year, the recovery of
14 cents in price for the week is not with-
out reason. Western receipts continue to
exceed last year’s, 8,001,220 bushels
against 7,243,969 for the week. With less
favorable reports of yield, corn exports fall
short slightly with small difference in
price. Cotton is unchanged in price with
larger consuming demand, though big crop
estimates do not appear to be disputed.
Heavy crops mean greater business for
railroads, and earnings have been increas-
ing each week in September compared with
last year, so that the aggregate of returns
for the month, 12.8 per cent. larger than
in 1896, are 1.8 per cent. larger than in
1892. Trunk lines show a gain of 4.3 per
cent. and western roads a small loss com-
pared with that year. Chicago east bound
tonnage for the quarter was but 1 per cent.
smaller than in 1892, and west bound
freights have been unusually large. Stocks
have been held back by successive attacks,
in spite of some buying for investment and
on European account, closing 38cts. per
share higher than a week ago for railroads,
and 35cts. per share higher for trusts. Ef-
forts to create distrust regarding foreign
relations or the monetary future appear to
have little influence.
A large increase in the production of pig
iron, with heavy realizing sales of lots
held on speculation, have caused a decline
of 15cts. to $10.60 for Bessemer at Pitts-
burg, though Grey Forge there has ad-
vanced 25cts., and pig is stronger at Chi-
cago and eastern markets. But finished
products grow stronger, with a demand
outrunning the capacity of works in opera-
tion in many branches, so that delays in
delivery are in sheets and tin plate bars
embarrassing, and in some other branches
orders cannot be filled within one or two
months. Building of more vessels on the
lakes and sea coast, heavy orders for sheets,
bars, rods and pipe, bave caused advances
averaging half of 1 per cent. for the week
on all classes, but the general gain is yet
not quite 10 per cent. from the lowest
point. Reports of combination in steel
rails are denied, and it is said that only
three large producers will agree on prices,
while the rod and wire compact appears to
be still in the future.
Wool has now reached an average of
20.37 cents per pound for 100 quotations of
domestic by Coates Bros., of Philadelphia,
showing a rise of 8 cents since a year ago,
with a much heavier rise on some qualities,
but following an average decline of 11
cents from March, 1893. Speculative sales
still account for most of the aggregate,
which has been at the three chief markets
14,337,000 pounds for the week, of which
8,955,890 were domestic, but manufactur-
ers are purchasing some wool for mixture
with the cheaper wool held for some
months past. The rise has so greatly ex-
ceeded the advance in prices of woolen
oods that the mills might have to pause
but for the very large stocks purchased in
advance. Goods are strong, with a further
advance in some grades, but in the ag-
gregate thus far not 20 per cent. from the
lowest point against 60 per cent. advance
in the average price of wool. Dealings in
cotton goods are delayed by weakness in
raw cotton, but neither print cloths nor
other goods have declined since last week,
and though the mills are not quite fully
employed, a continued increase in con-
sumption is with reason expected. The
disastrous influence of the great rise in
boots and shoes and in leather during the
fall of 1895 still checks dealings in those
products, and slow business has now
brought a slight decline in the average
price of boots and shoes, and also in prices
of sole leather, while hides are again a
shade lower at Chicago.
The exports of merchandise from New
York show an increase so large that, not-
withstanding heavier imports than have
been expected, an enormous merchandise
balance is assured which must continue for
months to come. It isto be remembered
that the outward movement of cotton has
but just begun. The shipment of $7,850,-
000 gold from London this week, like the
two large shipments from Australia which
preceded. is distinctly warranted in settle-
ment of merchandise balances, and with
foreign purchases exceeding sales of se-
curities for some weeks past, the amount
to be paid by specie imports is large. The
complete returns of failures for September
and the quarter, both by States and by
branches of business given on Saturday,
form the most encouraging report which it
has been possible to make for several
years. Failures for the week were 212 in
the United States, against 296 last year,
and 29 in Canada, against 46 last year.
Danish Cow Stables,
They are Carefully Constructed and Sanitary,
Danish cow stables are kept always
snowily whitewashed without and within,
and between the two rows of stalls is a cen-
tral gangway for the passage of a hay cart
to distribute forage to the mangers. Large
stalls accommodate two cows each, the ani-
mals being prevented from access, however
to each other’s food. In a trough above
the manger clear water runs from end to
end, and the ventilation and light are ex-
cellent. The cattle have two or three
feeds daily of mangel wurtzel, a midday
feed of hay, and night and morning are
fed with a mixture of rape cake and bran.
In summer they are turned out to grass.
The calves are equally cared for, and also
the multitude of pigs which fatten on the
dairy waste, making bacon of such superior
quality that it is in great demand abroad,
132,000,000 pounds having been exported
last year.

The State of Pennsylvania is in the

and other lawful dependencies, while at
the same time the owner of millions of
money which is being held by and manipu-
lated for the aggrandizement of favored
banks in the several leading cities. There

be any lack of funds with which to promp-
ly meet every demand that may legiti-
mately be made upon the resources of the
State.
may accrue from tardy payments, proceed
from the downright dishonesty and reck-
less profligacy of Republican rule.
Flagrant as were the steals that have
been already exposed, and that have be-
come known of all within the State, the
whole disgraceful truth will never be re-
vealed so long as the state treasurer’s and
auditor general’s offices are allowed to re-
main in control of the Republican party.
The bookkeeping methods in these depart-
ments are so devised as to cover up and
conceal many of the disreputable transac-
tions by which the tax-payers have been
and are being fleeced to reward the horde
of hangers-on of the party to whom the
dirty work of its campaigns is assigned.
There is a crying necessity that the records
of these offices should pass under the con-
trol and be open to the supervision of men
not of the Republican party, but solemnly
pledged to retrenchment and reform. The
distribution of the treasury balances to
particalar hanks without the exaction of
interest ; the maintenance of scores of un-
necessary and useless offices on and around
Capitol hill and through the State; the
reckless extravagance indulged in the fit-
ting of the departments and the legislative
chambers ; the numerous costly and useless
so-called investigations ; enormous waste
in the item of public printing ; the leak-
ages hetween the treasury and the statu-
ments—these and kindred divergences of
the people’s moneys from the purposes for
which they are constitutionally intended,
have probably made up from twenty-five
to fifty per cent., if not more, of the $12,-
000,000 or $13,000,000 of the State’s an-
nual expenditures. Each year adds to the
astounding total of the steals, the awful
magnitude of these wrongs. And each en-
suing year will continue to add to them, so
long as the people remain indifferent to
such golden opportunities as the Demo-
cratic party has this year, in the nomina-
tion of Messrs. Brown and Ritter, afforded
them for such a change as will mean a defi-

A VAGABOND SONG.
There is something in the autumn that is native
to my blood—
Touch of manner, hint of mood ;
And my heart is like a rhyme,
With the yellow sand the purple and the erim-
son keeping time.
.
The scarlet of the maples can shake me like a
cry
Of bugles going by.
And my lonely spirit thrills
To see the frosty asters like smoke upon the
hills.
There is something in October sets the gypsy
blood astir ;
We must rise and follow her,
When from every hill of flame
She calls, and calls each vagabond by name.

Predicament of a College Professor
Vassar’'s Law.
Owing to
Curious verification is said to have been
given not long ago to the tradition that no
man is allowed to become a member of the
Vassar faculty unless he be married. If
an unmarried man make application for
membership the rule is to first inquire if he
be married. The proverbial exception to
this rule occurred in the case of a young
man who sought to fill the Vassar chair of
history not long ago, and was so accepta-
ble in every way that his examiners forgot
to inquire into the most important thing of
all—his state of double or single blessed-
ness. Not until the day for opening the
college was at hand did any one of them
recall how shockingly they had left un-
done those things which they ought to
have done. The young man, by that time
arrived, had to confess that he was a bach-
elor. Well, there was nothing for it but
the one thing, so the faculty hemmed and
hawed a hit and finally got it out that the
young man must get married.
“We'll give you just two weeks,’” they
said ; ‘otherwise you’ll have to resign
your place. Surely you know of some
girl that you can get to marry you within
two weeks.”’
It was now the turn of the poor young
man to hem and haw, but he saw that
there was no alternative, his whole profes-
sional future depended upon it, so he
permitted himself to be hustled off the
campus before any of the susceptible stu-
dents caught sight of him, promisingto re-
turn within a fortnight married. He was
as good as his word, though he had a pret-
ty hard time fulfilling the contract to the
nite return to honest and economical gov-
ernment.
There will be no opening up of the full
extent of the outrages that the Republican
looters have perpetrated upon the people
until the books of the State treasurer and
auditor general are hrought to light and
rigorously and intelligently analyzed.
And this result can be attained through
the election of Messrs. Brown and Ritter
and not otherwise. Both these gentlemen
stand solemnly obligated to the people to
relentless search of the records for the reve-
lation of these past misdoings and for such
changes or modification of procedure as
will insure the taxpayers against their repi-
tition. Mr. Brown says to the people: *‘I
believe the treasury ring can be made to
surrender ; it should be and the people
treated to the contents of the hooks that
have been sealed and yet belong to them."
Mr. Ritter says : *‘It seems to me impos-
sible that such a state of affairs can longer
continue. There should be the same care-
ful and honest management of the fiscal af-
fairs of the State as would characterize pri-
vate business.”
Held by these pledges, being so situated
that it will be their interest as well as
pleasure to rigidly adhere to and conscien-
tiously execute them, and starting with a
force of nearly 430,000 Democratic voters
behind them, the situation would seem to
afford cheering prospect of the election of
these gentlemen, if only the seriousness of
the situation and the extraordinarily im-
portant contingencies involved shall find
proper appreciation with the taxpayers.
Save the Lives of the People.
It has long been manifest that the honor,
financial integrity and best good of the
State of Pennsylvania demand that the
Republican party be voted out of power.
Recent events show that course to be essen-
tial even to the protection of the lives of
the working people. The corporations con-
trol the Republican party through contribu-
tions of the funds with which its shameless
campaigns are prosecuted. The Republi-
can party controls the State, the hig cities
and most of the counties and, as a conse-
quence, sheriffs’ deputiesarmed with dead-
ly Winchesters and the military forces of
the State stand ready at the call of the cor-
porations to shoot down their workingmen
whenever the latter display the temerity
to ask for redress of their grievous condi-
tions or an increase of their miserable
wages.
The recent brutal murders of miners at
Lattimer are the most flagrant instances in
point, but are liable to be repeated any
day and in any of our great industrial sec-
tions unless the government at Harrisburg
shall be revolutionized by Democratic suc-
cess. What is needed is a Democratic Leg-
islature to make laws for the people in-
stead of for the corporations and a state
executive power independent in all its de-
partments of every obligation excepting to
the people. And as a first step to the
achievement of this object all who are op-
posed to such infamous and cruel subordi-
nation of the powers of the State to the
rule of individual greed should unite in
helping this year to elect the Democratic |
candidates for state treasurer and auditor
general. Excepting for the tardy and par-
tial revolt of the Governor the official for-
ces on capitol hill constitute a solid
phalanx for plunder of the taxpayers and
battle against the wage workers in their
attempt to secure something like decent
treatment from their corporation masters.
The election of Messrs. Brown and Ritter
would be a break and an important break
in the cabal. The exposures they would
he in a position to make, the reforms their
offices would enable them to accomplish
would, beyond question, pave the way for
an entire cleaning out of the dirty and dis-
reputable mess within a very few years.
Every taxpayer, every workingman has
deep interest in this good work. It is the
one and only opportunity of escape from a
rule that, for rottenness and recklessness of
popular rights, we make bold to say, is
without parallel in our political history.

The Reeder Collapse.
Only One Topic Discussed Among Northampton
Politicians.
EASTON, Pa., Oct. 9.—The Reeder-Weiss-
Luchenbach habeas corpus fiasco is still the
leading topic of conversation amongst the
people of this city and Northampton coun-
ty. Go where you would, in the hotels,
at the clubs and even at the county fair, at
Nazareth, during the week, it was freely
discussed. For weeks past General Reed-
er had been telling how anxious he was to
have an opportunity to show up the peo-
ple who were prosecuting and defaming
him when it came to the time for the hab-
eas corpus hearing the anxiety of the de-
fense seemed to be to get in its side of the
case only Judge Scott ruled that the law
required the exact reverse of this in habeas
corpus proceedings, and directed that the
hearing of testimony he proceeded with.
This settled the matter, and the petition for
the writ was withdrawn and leave asked
for the defendants to enter bail for their ap-
pearance at the November court, without
permitting another word of the prosecu-
tion’s case to come out.
The argument and final summing up in
the contested election cases, about which
so much has been said, was commenced be-
fore examiner R. C. Stewart on Friday
morning. It is rumored that the contes-
ants will prove sufficient errors to seat at
least two of the contestants, but of this
more will be known when the matter gets

The Anniversary of the Death of Edgar
Allen Poe.
The seventh of October was the anniver-
sary of the death of Edgar Allan Poe.
In 1849, on the 7th of October, the
author of ‘The Raven’ closed his
career in Baltimore. His modest monu-
ment in the old churchyard at the
corner of Greene and Fayette streets, in
that city, bears the date inscribed, and
flowers may not be missing on his tomb
upon the annual return of the day. But it
is not only in this city, where one of the
foremost of American poets found a home
and a grave, that his memory will be re-
called to-day. All over the globe, says
the Baltimore Sun, wherever the English
tongue is spoken or known, he will be re-
membered in the closet of the student and
in the academic halls of literature, as well
as in the minds and hearts of lovers of gen-
uine poetry. It it is true that ‘‘he who
wants to understand the poet must go into
the poet’s land”’ of thoughts, experience
and feelings, then the ‘‘martyr genius of
American poetry’’ will only be fully ap-
preciated by those who, like him, learned
to suffer ; for as he was one of the most
brilliant, so he was one of the most unhap-
PY poetical intellectualities the New
World has produced.
Strike Again at Hazleton,
Men Go Out at the Scene of the Late Murderous
Riot.
HAZLETON, PA.. Oct. 8.—The Lehigh
& Wilkesbarre breaker employes on the
Southside are again on strike. They were
given their checks to-day, and are to be
paid to-morrow afternoon, but when the
breaker hands found that they had been
granted less than what they :laim they
were promised at the time of the settlement
of the recent strike they all refused to work
and say that if the officials offer nn satisfac.
tory explanation or give no advance, the 2,-
500 men of this company who were out dur-
ing the difficulty will again be idle.
This practically resumes the strike, be-
cause if the breaker hands are idle the in-
side men, who have received an advance,
cannot work.

Philipsburg Three Score Years Ago.
From the Philipsburg Journal.
Thomas S. Dixon, formerly of Jefiries,
Clearfield county, and who for many vears
was one of our subscribers, and who tells
us that he is now staying at the Clearfield
county home, has been spending a couple
of days here with old friends and relatives,
and made us a call yesterday afternoon.
He is now in his 79th year, and is a: re-
markably well preserved man. We found
him to be very conversant with the early
history of Philipsburg and vicinity. He
first passed through Philipsburg with his
father 75 years ago. They were then on
their way from Wallace Run, this county,
to their new home in Bradford township,
Clearfield county, where his father, Samuel
Dixon, had purchased a small tract of land.
When a boy he frequently came to town,
and when he grew to young manhood
worked in this neighborhood. When
about 17 years old he was employed at
Plumb’s old Allegheny forge, on the Six
Mile run, near Bilger’s. He remembers
well the old forge at Cold Stream, the old
screw factory, and never forgot a visit to
the latter place when a boy of eleven years.
Soon after entering the factory the boys
employed therein began throwing screws
at him, and the boss, observing the atten-
tion he was creating, told him he had ‘‘bet-
ter be getting out.”” His reference to some
of the old landmarks in the shape of the
first hotels, residences, etec., long sinee torn
down, is full of interest, as well as his
mention of people who were the early pio-
neeis of this section and have beerr gath-
ered to their reward. He was acquainted
with Hardman Philips, remembers well a
funeral address he made at the burial of
one of the old settlers, and says he can re-
call often having seen his daughter riding
through the streets of the then little vil-
lage on a spotted Shetland pony. His de-
scription of a visit he made with his broth-
er when a boy on one of the big days,
when the Philipsburg militia, made up of
the young men of this place and neighbor-
hood, were undergoing review, was espec-
ially interesting to us. The occasion
brought to town many persons for miles
around, and the old town was in gala at-
tire and full of excitement. As he walked
through our streets, yesterday, and noticed
the vast improvements, handsome residen-
ces, mammoth store buildings, paved thor-
oughfares, manufactories, ete.. he could
bardly realize that he was in the burg.
Truly the years have made lasting changes.
