Better Times Now in Sight.
BUSINESS 1 KY1NG TO GO AHEAD.
R. G. Dun & Co.'s last weekly re
view of trade says :
There is a riffle in the clouds.
Faint and yet definite signs of im
provements are all the better because
they come, not from possibly delusive
hopes, or from momentary foreign aid,
but from the good sense and the won
derful recuperative power of the peo
ple themselves. Business is trying to
go ahead without waiting for Washing
ton. Imported gold, $9,000,000 more
during the week, does not go to the
right spot, but the people are creating
home made currency for themselves
by using certified checks in paying
hands, selling local accounts and pur
chasing grain and cotton.
The bank circulation has increased
two million dollars, but the decrease
of deposits of national banks alone
from May 4 to July 12, was $193,000,
000 and during the past month with
drawals have also been heavy. Little
money comes back from timid hoards
but that very fact pushes each section
and a city into relying more on itself
and less on government and Wall
street
DEMAND MUST SOON OVERTAKE SUPPLY.
Many concerns are failing or clos
ing but resumptions are now becom
ing somewhat frequent, and in the
very shrinkage of production men see
evidence that demand must soon over
take supply. No such shrinkage re
sulted at any time in five weary years
after the panic of 1873 as has already
appeared in great industries. Pig iron
does not rally, but sells at $14 here
anil $13 at Pittsburg for No. 1, though
the weekly output has been reduced
barty-six per cent.
Though five have failed and twenty
four stopped during the week, fourteen
have resumed. Only a third of the
Connellsville coke ovens are at work.
Sales of wool have been only 17,575,
coo pounds against 50,337,000 last
year and it is stated that 93,000 looms
aad 4,300,000 spindles in New Eng
land are idle which means more than
a quarter of the cotton spindles in the
country, but twenty knitting mills and
five, other cotton and woolen mills
have resumed, while twenty-eight have
stopped and one failed during the
week. Somewhat fewer cancellations
are met in dress goods and there is
more buying of Fall woolens.
A DECREASE IN RAILROAD EARNINGS.
With such shrinkage in the great in
dustries, it is only surprising that rail
road earnings do not decline more, the
lecrease on roads reporting in August
ihus far being eighteen per cent. The
decrease of twenty-five per cent, in
clearings outside New York lasj week,
wd thirty per cent, this week is only
natural. A little more money is now
'ound for commercial loans and fail
ires of banks have become both less
mportant and less frequent.
The receivership for the Northern
I'acific has been so fu'ly discounted
hat it produced little effect in the
took market. Prices of securities
lave yielded comparatively little and
irading has teen dull. Speculative
markets have generally declined a
fraction, in spite of crop reports, which
ire not solid enough to outweigh great
stocks in sight. Cotton fell a quarter
f a cent. Wheat drags near the low
est figures ever known in spite of de
crease in visible supply. The move
ment of corn is decidedly large, with
crop prospects improving.

cial action. The treasury has been
losing money rapidly, holding $6,600,
000 less in gold, $1,700,000 less in
silver and $900,000 less legal tenders,
in excess of outstanding certificates
than it held one week ago, while the
new treasury notes outstanding have
increased $400,000. It is coining
small gold as rapidly as possible and
issued $5,500,000 additional bank
notes during the first half of August,
but has very limited power because
rapidly diminishing receipts are no
longer enough to cover the necessary
disbursements.
The New York clearing house has
now issued $37,800,000 certificates
and the Boston clearing house $n,
200,000 but more important relief
comes from the statement of the drain
upon savings banks and of the demand
upon other banks for currency to be
used in paying hands in this and ad
jacent states. But this increase in de
mand is of itself evidence that indus
tries and trade are greatly embarrassed,
many works have stopped and many
hands are receiving no wages. The
failures this week number 455 in the
United States against 192 for the
same week last year, and twenty-seven
in Lanada against twenty five of last
year, fjf the United btates failures
154 were in the Eastern states, eighty-
four in 'Southern and 217 in Western
states and territories.

Balaam and Boas Were Wise.
Advertising is an ancient and honor
able institution, and was practiced
longer ago than a great many people
imagine. Get your Bible, turn to
Number xxiv: 14, and you will see
that Balaam believed in advertising,
and said to Balak : "Behold, I go
unto my people 5 come, therefore, and
I will advertise." Turn again to Ruth
ivi 4, and you will find that Boaz, in
connection with a real estate trans
action in which he was interested, ex
pressed himself as a judicious adver
tiser. It is said the reason why bicyclers
always lean forward when riding their
wheels is because they are on pleasure
bent.

A Tflnrtoo Holiday Celebrated by Wtiols
sale glaughtar.
Bombay, Aug. 17. The religion men
rlotiug was resumed In this city yesterday
and for several hours the streets were the
scenes of desperate conflicts. The fllitin
was of the most snngultmry nature mid a
large numler of person were killed and
wounded. The day being it Hindoo holi
day, the authorities anticipated a renewal
of the recent disturbances and were In a
measure prepared to suppress an outbreak,
but the police nnd the force of troops in
the garrison were Inadequate to cover the
whole city, and before quiet had been re
stored In one district fresh outbreaks would
occur in other parts of the city.
The rnge of the mob was directed es
pecially against the mosques, several of
which were sacked and burned. All the
publlcbulldlnirs are now guarded by troops
and the gutiboata In the harbor have becu
cleared for nction and brought into posi
tion to cover the native quartern. The
local authorities are coiifldentof Iwing able
to quell the rising.
The trouble In Bombay twgan on Aug.
12, when a number of encounters took
place between Hindoos and MobameUus
in the streets.
The day was one of religious observance,
of both bodies of these religious and race
enemies, and lxrth were allowed to cele
brate simultaneously.
The Mohametan made the first attack
and were routed by Uie Hindoos.
Troops wero hastily culled for from out
lying posts and were massed in the chief
native centres.
(fuus were trained upon the principal
unlive streets, the Inhabitant living or
dered to stay within their dwellings.
At first they oleyed, but soon the fight
ing began again. More troop were called
In, but they found it Impossible to cope
with the native factions.
A despatch was sent to the Oovernor
Oencrnl of India from Queen Victoria a
few days ago! expressing severe displeas
ure at the negligence of the local au
thorities in not using adequate means to
put down the disturbance.
