No room for figures here.
Strictly summer fabrics are

for us to hold them longer, and
we never, never carry these cob

FATOBABLE TRADE BEVIEW.
Una Co. Find that the Condition of Usui-

Report- Failures Are Decreasing.
Ite-w York. July 26. Dun's Review of
Trad-) tomorrow will say: It is not the
season .for the tide of business to rise.
but there is perceived scarcely any
shrinkage exceipt that which comes na
turally with midsummer 'heat. Late
ness of spring trade threw heavy settle
ments into the second week of July, and
clearing house .payments are now al
most a quarter smaller than, in that
week, but are 21.1 per cent, larger than
last year, and only ( per oent. smaller
than In the same week of 1S92.
Prices of Iron and steel products still
rise, the feature this week being the
startling advance of SO cents per keg
in cut and wire nails, with new cards
for various sizes which, it U stated.
make the advance actually greater than-
it appears. Angles are also a shade
higher and other prices strongly main
tained. Bessemer pig does not advance,
although the Carnegie and one other
company have 'been buying about 140.-
000 tons, which U supposed to foreshad
ow large contracts for rails. In the
first half of 1895 orders for rails were
713.000 tons against 603,000 In the first
half of last year and a good many
small orders appear at Chicago. Other
wise there ts a distinct halting In new
demand, though nearly all Iron and
steel works are crowded with orders
for some time to come.
Failures for the week were 202 In tnf
United States against 24 last year, and
27 in Canada against 39 last year.

Among the Arch-Fiend's V latins.

Badenoch and told him that a 16-year-
old girl, a daughter of wealthy and re

quainted with Holmes during the fall
of 1893, and afterward disappeared.
Where she went or what became of her
has never been ascertained, and her
parents, though clinging to the hope
that she is still alive, fear that she U
dead.
Until the recent . revelations of
Holmes' life were published In the Chi
cago newspapers, they did not connect
their daughter's disappearance with the
Englewood druggist, tout now that the
searchlight of investigation has been
turned upon the man and his horrid
crimes exposed, they are certain that
their daughter was one of his victims.
The two furnished Chief Badenoch

her parents, and the chief will investi

will not disclose the girl's name.

hav been drilled all during the year,
and especially the first part of the
week, exhibited the proficiency they at
tained and ' ' ased the spectators.
The last uay in camp is over and after
the soldiers passed In review before the
governor, their duty was ended. To
morrow Camp Curtln will be a thing of
the past, but It will be looked iback
upon by those who attended as one of
the most delightful events of their
lives.
Everything pertaining to the encamp

the visitors, the waters and (the duties
were satisfactory, but the greatest
reason for congratulation lies In the
fact that ithe general health of the bri
gade was excellent. No cases of serious
Illness have been reported.
The Thirteenth boys vlll remember
this encampment for the-excetlewt-ln-Bpection
they passed, and the record
attained.
One especially noticeable fact is that

treated -with respect and deference.
There will be very few courts martial
as result of this encampment. Every
body is pleased, even the Chautau
quans. The "Osalfers" of the Thir
teenth are as proud as they can well
be, and their pride is shared by the
men. The latter 'are deservedly pop
ular and many of them will arrive
home minus several brass buttons,
which will be treasured as souvenirs
and are now worn as evidence of con
quests by many fair visitors.
There was the usual nurrfber of drills,
the only difference toeing that they took
place before the governor. The grand
review look place at 6 o'clock and was
an Imposing spectacle.
The members of the Thirteenth were
as usual the ibest -drilled men In the
brigade and that fact' Is recognized.
Scrantonlans would lie proud after
cnmparlr.-g them iwlth the others. The
Ninth regiment also marched well.
Reveille will 'be sounded at 4 o'clock
this morning. The Thirteenth will be
the first to leave -for home. It is ex
pected that the start will -be made at 7
o'clock and the regiment will arrive
early In the afternoon.

all that could Ibe desired, the boys will
be delighted to reach home, sweet home.
