The special tele crams to Eradstreet't show that General - trade has improved moderately, though not uniformly, daring the week. Sales of no tions, leather, lumber, iron, coal and cloth ing have been less active. Leading price changes are an advance in suj-ar of ,c per pound, and wheat Jic per bushel. Live cat tle are also sliphtly higher. Pig iron pro duction is 22,000 tons weekly less than a month ago, and 28,000 tons less than one year ago, without appearing to stimulate the demand. Tho strike of coke operatives and miners threatens to still further reduce the production of iron and steel, as well as tbeontpnt in other industries using that fuel. General trade at New Yort is not, on the whole, in excess of that of a year ago. Leading distributors in some of the more important staple lines report sales since Jan uary 1 not equal to those in a like portion of 1800. The outlook for spring trade is very generally reported favorable. There ''has been no material change during the ! week at Boston, but at Philadelphia a slight improvement is reported. The TYeek'a Business Failures. 1 ' A satisfactory volume of business is noted at Cincinnati, Kansas City, Memphis and New Orleans. Conservatism continues to be shown at Omaha and Denver, and a de crease in Tolume of business at Chicago is noted. Easiness failures in the United States during this week number 260, against 270 last week and 213 this week last year. The total from January 1 to date is 2,061, against 2,100 last year. Railway share speculation in "Wall street is narrow, and shows weakness on the ex port of 51,760,000 in gold to Europe, though ?- the movement is encouraged by the absence of public and foreign buying and the slow ness of the heavy interest combined on the bull side to advance prices. Reports ot the consolidation of railroad interests are plenti ful, bu the latter fail to materialize. Money generally throughout the country remains easy at comparatively lower rates, though at Kansas City 810 per cent is quoted. Mercantile collections are only fairly prompt. In the territory tributary to- U mail a collections are relatively slow. The Regular Bank Clearing Report. Bank clearings at 6 cities for the week ended February 12 are 1,060,555,910, an in crease over this week last year of 9.7 per cent. New York City's clearings, which constitute 59.5 percent of the grand total, ere more than those for the same period last year by 14.1 per cent, while at 55 other cities the gain it 3.6 per cent. Gross railway earnings in January are only moderately satisfactory, owing to a quiet trade and reduced grain and overland : cotton movement, the comparison being nec- 'essarily with January, 1890, when earnings were vervheavy. The Northern Pacific and a few Eastern and Central "Western roads account for nearly tbree-fonrths of the grain I shown. Only one-fifth ot the roads reported chow decreases as compared with one-third in December. The aggregate gross earnings of 137 roads for January amount to 35,568,- '482 on a total of 85,908 miles, a gain of 6.2 per cent in earnings and 3.7 per cent in mileage. Drygoods are only slightly better in de mand from jobbers and agents. Cotton and (woolen dress goods are active and prices are 'well held. Print cloths have advanced one-sixteenth of a cent. Brown sheetings favor buyers. The auction sale ol 70,000 " dozen hosiery and gloves resulted in satis factory prices for the former and unsatis factory prices for the latter. Grain, Its Prices and Movements. "Wheat, which declined, advanced on pur chases by millers and exporters, owing to reports of extreme cold in the West and confidence by many in the alleged shortage of the yield last year East of the Eocky Mountains. Not enough rain had fallen in California to the 13th inst. to insure wheat farmers' good yields. A. continuance of the drouth will cause wheat, grapes and other fruit to suffer materially. Exports of wheat (and flour as wheat), both coasts, this week equal 2,236,681 bush els, of which 1,497.907 bushels were from the Pacific coast, owing largely to a desire to get ridof as much surplus wheat as possible prior to March 1, when taxes are assessed. Last year the week's exports equaled 1,517,775 bushels, and last week they amounted to 1,366,628 bushels. The total shipped from July 1 to date is 62,333,684 bushels. In 1889-90, for a like period, it was 06.234,418 bushels; in 1888-89 it was 59,989,608 bush els, and in 1887-88, 87,458,564 bushels. Prom Dominion trade centers word is re ceived that there is a more active shipment of spring goods. The Montreal drygoods Trade of 1890 is said not to have been gener ally profitable. There is an active demand at Toronto lor wheat for export. The Dominion of Canada reports 38 lailures this week, against 58 last week, and 40 this week .last year. The total number from January 4 to date is 331, against 322 last year. According to R. G. Dan & Co. E. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review says: There is some improvement in business at the East and a more confident feeling, and at Chicago the tone is very hopeful; but at most other Western and nearly all Southern points business shows no increase in vol ume and is rather hesitating. The pay merits through all Clearing Houses lor Jan uary show scarcely any increase over last year, although the yearly and quarterly disbursements on ac count of previous business were Tery much larger than a year ago, and the returns lor February thus far exhibit sub stantially the same situation. It must be inferred that new business is, on the whole, somewhat smaller in volume than it was a year ago, notwithstanding the advance of about 10 per cent in the average prices of commodities. In part this is explained by the excep tional activity toward the close of last year, but in part also bv shortness ol crops" and doubts regarding the monetary future. No Important Monetary Legislation. These doubts, however, have been much lessened by events which tend to show that no important monetary legislation is proba ble for the next year; and while exports of gold are announced, the rate of exchange hardly justifies them as yet. The industrial outlook is modified by the great strike of the Connellsyille coke work ers, which must cut "off large supplies of iron if it lasts, and by the great decrease in the iron output. The tone of the market for finished iron is stronger because of the coke strike, and sales of pig iron have been un usually liberal. The coal market is dnll and weak, all' agreements to restrict pro duction proving farcical in result, for the output is ranging 25 to 30 per cent above last week's. A war of prices is apprehended unless a change in the market demand occurs speedily. The demand for copper is limited, orders being confined to present necessities, and lake is quoted at ll)i cents, ' L "Wearing Apparel and Other Industries.! aid. is purcnasea wiiu caution oniy 20.1 cents, and lead is inactive, at 4.35 cents. The demand for wool continues strong, and worsted grades are rising. The commission merchants are extremely carefnl about credits. The trade in cotton goods it fair; print cloths stronger. The boot and shoe trade is improved ai to volume, though prices are not highly satisfactory. Leather is firm. The grocery trade is fairly active, and in dicates no decrease in the demand for con sumption. Provisioni have been a shade weaker, with a fall of X cents in corn, and wheat and oats have declined each a fraction on small sales, but coffee and oil are stronger and cotton unchanged. The low price Of cotton tends to make trade dull at the South, farmers holding back for higher prices: but at New Orleans the general trade improves materially. At Nashville it opens very well, though buyers are cautious. Reports from the Leading Cities. St Louis reports a fair volume, but no im provement, while Kansay City finds better wholesale and duiet retail trade. At Den ver and St Paul, trade is fair; at Minneapo lis, very active in Inmber, with excellent logging prospects; at Omaha, without im provement, and at Milwaukee and Detroit quiet 'Cleveland reports fairly good trade in most lines, and pig iron slightly better, but 2,000,000 tons of ore are on the docks, half unsold. Pittsbnrg notes belter demand for mer chant iron became of the strike, and good trade in bottle glass, but dullness in other branches of the glass business. At Chicago wool receipts are more than double last year's, and there is some increase in lard and cheese, but heavy decrease in corn and dressed beef. Drygoods, clothing and shoe trades considerably exceed last year's. Philadelphia reports improvement in wool and a fair trade in drygoods and clothing. At Boston general trade is good. Throughout the country the money mar kets are comparatively easy and undis turbed, though the demand is good and the supply hardly adequate at Cleveland, and at Omaha the market is close. That city, Denver and Milwaukee are the only cities at which collections are reported slow; at most places they are fair or good. ALABAMA'S NEW GEBBYMAHDEB. The Only Doubtful District Manipulated Into the Democratic Column. Montgomeby, Ala., Feb. 13. The Sen ate to-day passed the House bill to redistrict the State into nine Congressional districts, the nnmber to which the new apportionment gives the State, based on the last census. The Legislature has divided up black dis tricts by attaching black counties to white counties, so that a solid Democratic delega tion is assured. The Fourth district, known as the Black Fourth, which has for the past eight or ten years been the bone of conten tion and was doubtful, is now safely in the Democratic column. THE OKLAHOMA ELECTION.

TEOUBLE AT THE SUMP. Horses Said to Have Been Abased at Expo sition Park. The old Exposition Park is the only dumping ground in the two cities, and re fuse from all quarters is hauled there. Dozens of teams are stalled in the soft mud every day. Some of the horses sink in up to their bodies. Agent Berryman visited the place yester day and found that horses were being abused there all the time. As a result, informations will be made to-day against Contractor Mar shall, Archie Taylor, Peter Smith, Thomas Flinn and Contractor McKinney for crnelty to animals. AN AHTI-CXEVELAND BES0LUTI0N.

La grippe is with us acain, and this dreadful disease has already taken a firm crip on manr of our people. The after effects ot -la grippe" are more to be dreaded than the disease itself. Generally It makes place for pneumonia and leaves the patient, if be recovers at all, in a very feeble condition, from which many bave not rallied long after the last attack of our Russian enemy "la grippe" had left us. Sir Morell Mackenzie highly recommends the Soden Mineral Pastilles as being the most effectual remedy lor the prevention and cure ot all catarrhal Inflammations (of which la grippe is the most aggravated type) for sore throat, coughs, bronchitis and lnng troubles. When ever you enter from a heated room into the open air during tho winter, pot one of these pastilles (troches) into the month and yon will surely prevent any attack of the grip, catarrh or colo. Whenever you suffer from a cold in the head or catarrh of any inrm, do not trifle with yourself, bnt nja them at once. The genuine Boden Mineral Pastilles must bave tne testimonial and signature of Bir Morell Mackenzie around each box. . Ie7-5-TTS aiSW ADVERTISEMENTS.

The human family are subject to nearly 2U0 Bkindiseases.abont 100 of which are common iu this country. No class of diseases are more distressing, annoying and humiliating to the snnerer than SKin dis eases, and none are less understood by family physicians. They are so numerous, so different in their conditions and symptoms, that In order to understand them thoroughly and treat tbem intelligently and successfully It is necessary for a physician to make their care, management and treatment a specialty. This Dr. VanDyck has done for years. He has studied, analyzed and treated every form of rash, humor, erup tion, blood and skin disease in existence, until be nas arrived at almost perfection in their treatment.

Liver Spots Are dark brownish, dirty, muddy-looking spots in the cheeks, forehead, neck and around the mouth; the neck and month often looking as If skin were scaled, affecting ladies mostly. Res Nose Nothing is more suggestive to the public than a chronic red nose; many a man and woman of the most abstemious habits are compelled to carry the perceptible sign of conviviality; the nose becomes red upon the least exposure to heat or cold, which in time becomes chronic red in many advanced cases a network ot capillaries and veins ap pear.

PRICES HALVED QUARTERED. Our piles of odds and ends are melting away like snow before the March sun. Our prices are doing it. They have been cut down from 50 to 75 per cent This means a big loss of money to ns, but, considering that the goods are remnants, we are glad to get rid of them at any cost, These broken sizes, however, undesirable and unsalable as they may be to us, are just as good and useful to you as though we had complete lines of them. The only question is, Have we your size? If we have, you get a bargain that'll surprise you. And don't lose sight of the fact that the odds and ends offered at this sale are all comparatively new and fresh goods, having been manufactured for our Fall and Winter trade, 1890-91. Many of the odd Suits and Overcoats are of light and medium weight, and of such patterns as will be worn by fashionable men this spring. In one word, this odds and ends sale is the best opportunity yet pre sented to shrewd buyers by any business house. Take care not to be left out in the cold. We don't want to bother with broken sizes next week all must be sold before 10 o'clock to-night. MUST, we say, though we may be compelled to nearly give them away.
