Heports to Bradslreet's and E. G. Dun &
Co. do not show au entirely satisfactory
condition of general trade. The weather
in partly responsible for this. Iron and
steel are still reported in rood condition.
tSFECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH. 1
New York, -January 31. Special tele
grams to Bradstrcet's confirm previously re
ported indications of an unexpected check to
general trade in January as compared with
1889. California reports decreased wheat
acreage aud adverse weather conditions with
reference to the next crop. General trade on
the Pacific coast has been restricted by 11
weeks of rain and six days' snow blockade
of the Central Pacific Railroad.
Hats, caps and furs, boots and shoes,
clothing and wool have all been unfavora
bly affected bv a return of mild weather.
Almost all leading trade centers report
only a fair volume of business. At New
York stocks of hides are heavy and prices
are lower. In fact, except fine butter and
cotton Roods, steel and the better grades of
iron, nearly all staple commodities have de
clined in price or have shown a tendency to
do so.
Kf SPECULATIVE LINES. ,
The Hew York stock market after the
heavy gain of 57,000,000 in bank surplus re
serves, promised higher prices and a bullish
temper, which appeared promptly on Mon
day. But a desire to realize on paper profits
resulted in a reaction, ami the market closes
heavy and hesitating, with prices lower. In
creased earnings of the Pennsylvania sys
tem arid of the Deleware and Hudson had a
favorable influence, while the withdrawal of
Union Pacific and Northwestern companies
from the Inter-State Association was ad
verse. Honey continues easy, and is ex
pected to remain so for some weeks. Bonds
are firm and in good demand.
The probability of a decline of 50 cents per
ton in pig iron prices, with the increased at
tention attracted to the enormons produc
tion, has been discussed by makers and buy
ers. A .ew weaker furnace companies have
told at sh .aed figures. Larger makers de
mand lull prices. Western steel rail mills
have advanced prices 51 per ton, bat report
no sales at the advance.
Available stocks of wheat, United States
and Canada, east of the Rockies, as reported
to Bradstreet '.aggregated 52,301,312 bushels
January 25, a decrease ou the week of 609,
408 bushels; like corn stocks were 18,430,621
bushels, a gain of 14",29G bushels. Added
to stocks afloat for Europe the total of wheat
becomes 72,173,312 bushels, 433,408 bushels
less than on January 18, and of corn 24,
394.621, or 475,296 bushels more than on
January 18.
AGRICULTURAL EXPOETS.
Exports of wheat (and flour as wheat)
from both coasts this week, as reported to
Bradstreet's, equal 1,613,35 bushels, against
1.809,500 bushels last week, and 1,192,101
bushels the last week of January, 18S9. Total
exports July 1 to date equal 61,817,781
bushels, against 58,282,101 bushels in seven
months ot the previous cereal year and 83,
419,825 bushels in a like portion of 1887-88.
Wheat flour, with unusually heavy local
stocks, estimated at about 1,000,000 barrels
and sacks, and continued pressure of sup
plies ana lame aemana, is ou ig;i5 cents
per barrel. "Wheat has declined ljs12s
cents in the week 12 cents at Chi
cagoon weaker home and iorcign markets
and indifference of exporters. Indian corn,
too, has declined sharply J1J cents on
dnll cables and dressed export movement.
The decline in oats was likewise 1 cents.
live aavs' exports of oats from Kew York
equal 325,000 bushels. There has been a
sharp reaction in hog products led by the
west, pork dropping 25(075 cents per barrel
and lard S15 points per pound.
A light movement in sugar is accom
panied by a slight weakening in prices of
raw. Full production with a modified de
mand for refined at New York resulted in a
decline of Jc Kefiners' profits are now
estimated c per pound, against a profit
per pound a year ago and at other periods.
Coffee in jobbing and distributing lines has
moved less ireely, aud prices, notably for
Brazilian, are off jgc
DKYGOODS QUIET.
Drygoods have been quiet. New York's
trade for January is disappointing. Cotton
goods prices are firm, with an advancing
tendency, owing to higher cost of raw mate
rial. Print cloths prices gained slightly.
"Woolens are quiet and clothing dull. Raw
wool is dull, with prices tending lower, nota
blyon Territory, California and Texas wools.
Cotton is less active after a reaction of 1-16
Business failures reported to Bradstreet's
are declining in number, amounting to 286
in the United States this week, against 324
last week and 331 this week last year. Can
ada had 50 this week, against 59 last week.
The total of failures in the United States
for the month of January is 1,628, against
1,606 in 1889.
K. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review of
trade says: The closing of one considerable
hank and two smaller ones, tends to impair
public confidence. In other words the news
is less favorable this week. The financial
pressure at London does not abate, and
there are reports that heavy withdrawals of
gold for South America or for France will
soon be necessary. Foreign exchange here
grows stronger, having risen from H 86 to
?4 87J. Sales of bonds have been small,
and the Treasury has taken in nearly 51,
200,000 more cash than it has paid out
COLLECTIONS SLOW.
Tardiness of collections at various in
terior points causes more complaint, and the
unseasonably mild weather once more de
presses many branches of trade. The ex
ports lor December proved much larger than
had been expected, with an excess of 37,
000,000 over imports. The exports in Jan
uary from New York have been smaller
than last year by 8J per cent
Money at New York is abundant and
cheap on call, and the demand for commer
cial paper is now strong here and at Phila
delphia; at Chicago rates are .unchanged
with a fair demand; at St Lonis the market
is stronger at 7 to 8 per cent with good de
mand; at Cleveland and Milwaukee the
market is fairly active with ample supply,
and at other western points somewhat
easier, with moderate or fair demand.
These facts suggest doubt whether large
supplies will be available for the East, "if
business activity continues.
The later indications of business activity
are not quite so satisfactory. A heavier
movement followed the cold days at Boston,
but wool sales were only 2,400",000 pounds,
with a market weak and depressed, except
for combing and delaine. Goods do not im
prove. An unexpected demand has raised
domestic hides to "ft cent, but foreign are
dull. Leather Is selling more ireely. Phila
delphia notes few sales of wool. At Chi
cago dealings in grain and meats are large,
but in drygoodssomewhat less forthe past two
weeks, and the shoe trade shrinks a little.
Distribution has been fair at St. Louis,
Omaha and Kansas City; very fair at De
troit, but dull at Cleveland and depressed
again by weather at Milwaukee.
XOT TJP TO EXPECTATIONS.
From the reports telegraphed it may be
inferred that trade since the new year began
has not answered expectations, and there are
somesigns that the cold, weather is not solely
.to blame. In the iron business the mills
are fully employed at Cleveland, but sellers
make better offers at Pittsburg, and some re
ductions occur; and at Philadelphia large
lots, which have been hypothecated, have
been sold at some concessions, frightening
timid buyers. The indications are that ex
cess of production begins to be felt
In the drvgoods trade the signs noted at
Boston, Philadelphia and Chicago are seen
here and at other points. The coal trade
also continnes much depressed as to anthra
cite, though bituminous is active at fair
prices. The unsurpassed activity in build
ing has made materials strong and active.
Wheat is 1 cents lower, with sales of
.20,000,000 bushels, corn Vyi cents lower,
and oats Hf cents lower for the week. Cot
ton is held by speculation, but sales for the
week were over 1,000,000 bales, and coffee is
unchanged, but oil and pork products are
lower In the stock market a considerable
advance occurred because of covering short
sales, but the bank failure came in to in
crease a reaction. The average of prices for
stocks is still a little higher than a week
ago, and the reports of earnings are highly
encouraging.
The business failures are 291, as against
330 last week. For the corresponding week
of last year the figures were 332.

from allowing employes to stand around the
polls molesting and harrassing citizens and
hindering them in the free exercise of their

The B'Jon Perfecting Incandescent
ralnnlors.
Mr. Frank Carter, gasman at the Bijou
Theater, is now at work constructing a
system of incandescent footlights which has
never been tried in this vicinity before. He
will use 76 25-candle power lamps, which
will include the pale reds, greens and other
shades used in calcinm illumination. The
resnlt will, it is expected, give exceedingly
brilliant footlighting power. At the same
time the old smoky gas system will be for
the most part done away with.

For three years I was almost crippled with an
awful sore leg from my knee down to ray ankle;
the skin w&s entirely gone, and the flesh was one
mass of disease, borne physicians pronounced it
Incurable. It had diminished about one third the
size of the other, and 1 was in a hopeless condition.
After trying all kinds of remedies and spending
hundreds of dollars, from which I pot no relief
whatever. I was persuaded to try your CUTlcUitA

three days I noticed a decided change for the bet
ter, and at the end of two months 1 was completely
cured. My flesh was purified, and the bone (which
had been exposed lor over a year) got sound. Ihe
flesh began to crow, and to-day, and for nearly
two years past, my leg is as well as ever it was,
sound In every respect, and not a sign of the dis
