Francis Wil son, the comedian, has declared war on the theatrical trust controlled by Messrs. Hayinan, Prohinau, Klch, Har ris, Nixon, Zimmerman, Klaw and Kr lunger. Mr. Wilson's time was partial ly booked by the syndicate, when his manager discovered that would be the only way to avoid a clash of dates with De Wolf Hopper, who recently placed himself under the booking con trol of the combine. It has been the practice of the mali ngers of the two companies to arrange their season so as not to conlllct. This year Mr. Wilson's manager found that the syndicate was doing the booking for the big star of "El Capltun," and that dates would full together. So, to avoid friction, Wilson allowed the trust to book him. When it came to playing Baltimore and Washington it is said the comedian was told that he must appear at the Academy of Music and the Lafayette Square theater respectively. All his previous engagements have been at Ford's In Baltimore and the National In Washington. Mr. Wilson rebelled and his time at the Philadelphia house controlled by the syndicate was can ci led. Wilson then refused to play the syn dicate dates in other cities, and a the atrical war Is on in consequence. FINAL JOINT SESSION. .School Superintendents Close Their Deliberations at Harrisbiirg.

The Increase in Business Is Gradual, but Exhibits Elements of Soundness That Are Unmistakable. New Yoik, Match 12 It. ". Dun & Co. will say toinoirow In their weekly Itevlew of Trade: It Is a cut lous llliistiatlon of human natuie, this continued discouragement even while the lncieusi- of pioduutlve industries and of legitimate business steadily grows. No genuine or lasting Improvement could come otherwise than slowly and step by step, after such a depression us the pust four yeurs have witnessed, und t lie most hopeful feature of the situation is that tile gain Is so nearly devoid of ele ments which Involve unsoundness and probable reaction. The money mar kets continue especially favorable to Industrial recovery, and there Is no such speculation epidemic as to lock Ul an excessive shale, of available capital. The annual statement of wheat In farmers' hands March 1 have not in the least stimulated speculation. Tile price lias declined l!'j cents for the week, and corn is ulso a fraction lower. Iron furnaces March 1 were produc ing 170.000 tons weekly, 7.000 tons or 4 per cent more than Feb. 1. and al though visible stocks have Increased 20,000 tons in four weeks, still more furnaces have started this month. The demand for finished products still lags behind the supply of pig iron, except In the great steel woiks, whose stocks are not reported, but their orders with out doubt cover full production for several months. The chler events in the railroad world have been encour aging. The transfer of the Lehigh Valley to the control of the Moraan ami Drexel houses promises Important relief, and tends toward greater har mony of coal interests for tile future. At the same time the reduction which will be announced today of 2.1 cents In prices of anthracite, looks towaid a larger demand and better employment In the future. March earnings for railroads thus far reported shows an Increase of 2 per cent, over last year. Failures for the past week have been 2.-G in the United States, against 200 last year, and 31 In Canada against CO last year. DISTRICT CONVENTIONS. Second Legislative District.

MARKETS AND STOCKS. Wnll Street Itevlew; New York, March 12. Speculation at the Stock exchange early In the day wns devoid of feature and extieme dull ness prevailed, but during the after noon the maiket developed an unusual degree of strength and in a number of instances, sharp advances were record ed. Had it not been for the Vanderbllt group the session would have been without Important Incident, but the fact that a steady absorption of New York Cential, Canada Southern and Omaha took place inspired the ttad ers witli bullish proclivities with more confidence than on any previous day of the week. The rise In the VanderbllUi was accompanied by teports that sev eral prominent capitalists had taken hold of those stocks, for a considerable advance. The most Important gains were :; per cent, in Omaha, 2 In West ern I'nion, l',i In Jersey Central and 1 In New York Central. The remain der of the list improved to the extent of ViiiTa per cent. Tobacco advanced Hi on the decision rendered at Trenton in favor of the company, .but a reaction to 7S',! ensued. The only stocks that showed net losses for the day were .Sugar' und Manhattan, and these only lost i per cent. Total sales were lit', 000 shaies.

A PECULIAR PURCHASE TO MAKE WAS THIS pui J ttJI I II llrJi You will judge, perhaps, on first thought, but when you know the price you'll not be surprised. Twelve years atjo thes2 Spanish Scarfs were in great demand and were worn extensively as a neck and shoulder ornament. And they are good today, as many of our friends who have already bought them tell us for head-gear, if you are going out in the evening, or you can take one of the wide, extra long ones, and make a waist or bodice over a covered ground. This lot we have are strictly all silk, and many of them are big enough for a shawl. The actual value is from $1.50 to $4.50 each. OUR SALE PRICE CONNOLLY & . . J 1 A. A .. .V A.
