LAWRENCE, Dushore. lIMNIueMN ol tlie Week. Pun's Review- The price barometer gives indica tions that are not entirely favorable. Cotton goods go up with increasing evidence that the crop of cotton is short. Prices of other manufactured products, of wool, hides and leather, all show some decline, a general almt inent in new orders being.the princi ple cause, With an immense volume of business, not much exceeded in the largest month of the exceptional year 1592, and with evidence that in several important branches the vol ume has surpassed that of any pre vious year, there is a growing un certainty about the near future of industries. Money markets are neither straiued nor threatening, foreign exchanges no longer raise apprehension, and all fears about the great Northern crops are past. There have been few advances in wages of labor within the past month, and only a few works have been closed by strikes for an advance. The main cause of decreased or ders has been repeatedly pointed out by this journal during the past half year. When business began to revive, a million traders were in haste to order, not only the goods each expected to sell within a given time, but enough more to replenish stocKs which had been cut down almost to bare shelves by two years of prostra tion. Thus the buying was much in excess of real consumption within the given time. Also, as prices rose many hastened to buy in advance of visible needs, hoping that every pur chase would mean a gain, while mul titudes hurried to get in their orders before competitors could buy as cheaply. Under such conditions buying continued for six months, and still continues in cotton goods, which have risen less than the ma terial. But in most manufactured products buying for the tame reason can no longer be expected, and the steady and regular consumption is not yet known. The production of pig iron, Oct. Ist, was the largest in the history of the country, 201,414 tons weekly, against 194,029 September Ist, 190,- 000 having been the highest in 1805. Stocks unsold are not stated, but substantially the whole production is in execution of past orders. On the other hand now orders are ex ceedingly small. There is marked decrease in almost all finished pro ducts, tank steel is lower, bar iron is offered by some at concessions, plates arc not firm, the structural de mand has greatly decreased, and •wire rods decline $1 to $29, with lower wire and a much reduced de mand for nails. Bessemer |>ig has fallen $1 to sl'> at Pittsburg, and Grey Forgo iio eta., and prices of iron products average 1£ percent lowor for the week. Discontinuance of a demand, which could not be ex- i pected to continue at the same rate : after prices has risen ;"»2.9 per cent..' leaves actual consumption in ques tion.

Iho object was to pre vent certain votes from being thrown out because of the reason assigned, by the court. It is presumed that some of the votes in response to the argument will be retained, but just, who they are no person at this writing knows. The contestants were allowed to file a second briel, hence the time at the next meeting of the court will be consumed, old fashion—argument. Court adjourned on Wednesday afternoon and will re-convene in Laporte on Tuesday, Oct. 29, at 9 a. m. time Yet sales of wool continue heavy, 11,849,200 lbs. for the week, largely speculative. The cotton manufacture is peculiarly favored by the rise in materials, and by the ex traordinary stock* of cotton brought over from last year, but goods are also advancing, those quoted last week now averaging 90.8 again. t 87 5 per cent, of the prices of 1890. Hon. Russel Karns and his estim able wife are once more in charge of the Laporte lie tel. This will be grateful news to the traveling public and to the residents of the county whom business freipieutly calls to the county seat. Mr. and Mrs. Karns left theh;tel eighteen months ' ago on account of failing health Since that-tima three different par ties have been in charge at different times. The WPII known and widely patronized hostilery will now resume its old-time popularity and with the genial owner and bU excellent lady once more in charge the traveling public can rest assured of being well i taken care of.

Triable for the Paginate. Little Rock, Oct. 14.—The United Press corresponding found the Gov ernor this morning thoroughly de termined to prevent the prize fight at all hazards. He says that, the action of the Circuit Judge and Shcr iff of Garland county makes it a mat ter of state concern and renders him jriinarily responsible for its suppres sion. He is still hopeful that those in charge of the prize fighting enter prise will abandon all further at tempts to bring it here. If, however this does not prove the case, their efforts can only be interrupted to mean that tliey intend to resist with force tbe efforts of the officers to pre vent it. In his aspect of affairs the prize fight will drop out of view and the conleßt will be one between the power of the state and that uninvit ing force of the prize fighting con tingent. TLe Governor has no doubt of the result of a conflict be tween these. That the authority and the dignity of the stale will be maintained goes without sayiug. If this should not prove to be the case, and the prize fight lake place, in spite of the efforts of the officers and the people, the Governor says be will resign his office and in future leave the enforcement of the laws and their resistance to invasion to more competent hands. 11.
