STATE OF TRADE LESS CLEAR.
Uncertainty About Tariff Legislation
Causes Stagnation in Business and
Little Demand for Legitimate
Investment.
R. O. Dun A fo.'t weekly "Review ol
Trade says:
It cannot be said that bu-lness during the
past week lias grown brtter or worse. For
some days the gain in demand and in trans
actions which bad been previously noticed,
evidently continued. Hut afterward tariff
uncertainties were thought to effect some
branches of business and whatever the
causes, the state of trade was less clear
Money was everywhere abundant with ratea
comparatively low and the commercial de
maud was remarkably small, while the de
mand for speculative uses appeared to
be Increasing. When there lire symp
i"ms of a transition state, ordinary indica
tions based upon the course of business
1own to a few days ago, are not as valuable
as usual, but on the whole such signs are,
however, less encouraging than Ihey were
a week ago. Reports ol different branches
of trade and from different cities frequent
ly mention the tariff uncertainties as a
cause ol natural hesitancy, but it will tnke
some time to determine whether the gener
al tendency toward improvement has been
checked or to w bat extent. The toliime of
trade has been so i ewhat Increased and yet
not as much as was especled. The indus
tries are waiting with visible uncertainty
regarding the outcome of tariff legislation.
It is a question wiiether the wcrk nt force
employed Is larger than it was a week ego.
The sales of wool are again larger than
for the same week last vear, amounting to
U.UIO.XOO pounds against' 4,:i5l.6O0 pounds last
year, but part of the transactions are said
to be speculative, being based on the the ry
that whatever may happen, later the nei ea
siiies of the country will compel n larger
consumption within the next few months.
The vast accumulation of idle money tends
to stimulate speculation, but it is not a
goodsympton. It shows a remarkable
shrinkage in thevolume of trade, , and the
reports from all quarters makes it clesr
that the demand lor money ia unusually
light lor the season. The domestic exports
for four weeks from New York amount to
(W.IIJ.MU against 2!l,07l,17:i, while
the decrease in imports is over 110,.
000,007 for the lour weeks, so that ihe
excess of exports for the whole coun
try must be large. No gold comes this way

A decidedly gloomy view of the future of

"J anticipate the complete dissolution of

man was so enterprising as to steal a bottle
of soda and after he had dinnk the soda he
carried buck the bottle and got a nickel

How a lecture on the ttharpness of Train
Newsboys Was Made Valueless.
There Is one man in New York who
has learned not to display his knowl
tde of human nature to an tinsym
pathetic world. IInw he was cured
was recently told by him to the Til
Initio. lie wan iraveliiiif with hi
wile, and the talk drifted Into a dis
cussion of the sharpness of train
newsboys. What followed Is thus re'
luted. "As 1 told you before, I used
to think that my knowledge of hu
man mituie was very deep. Weil, 1
let myself loose on this occasion and
nave my wife tho benefit of quite a
dissertation on the subject. 1 dwelt
particularly on the fact that these
newsboys become exceedingly good
Judges of character, and that they
depended upon this faculty to a large
extent to nwke a living in tbeir line
of btisluess. 1 went so far us to as
ten that they could even tell, by
studying a man's face, pretty nearly
what bis tastes were in tbe matter
of the books which he liked to read.
This Is where I got too wise. Koon
after making this assertion 1 was sit
ting in the seat next in front of tbat
occupied by my wife, when the boy
cunie along with an armful of books.
He stopped when be reached my seat,
looked at me critically for a few sec
onds, then pulled out a book from the
bottom of the pile which he carried
In his arms, and, leaning over con
Mdontlally, said in a tone which un
foitunately was 1 ud enough for my
wile to hear plainly: 'This book bus
been suppressed.' My wife was sud
tieniy intensely interested in u.i ex
ceedlngly ordinary landscape when I
looked around at her, but 1 could see
from the amused expression about
tbe corners of her mouth tbat she
bad taken in the situation, you
may be sure she laughed when tbe
boy was pone, and everytlme 1 try to
grow oracular wltb ber he only bas
to refer mysteriously to this Incident,
when I. of course, am compelled to
e.iose ud as t'tfbtlv a i clam."

The Royal Bakinir Powder has the
enviable record of haying reoelvecl the
highoRt award for article! of it clean
greatest utiengtb, purest ingre
dient, moat perfectly combined
wherever exhibited In comprtion with,
others. In the, exhibitions of former
years, at the Centennial, at Parie,'
Vienna and at tlin various State and
Industrial fairs, whero it has been ex
hibited, judfre have invariably award
ed the Itoynl linking Fowder the high-
cat Donors.
At the recent World's Fair the ex
amination for the baking powder
awards were directed by the) chief
chemist of tho Agricultural Depart
ment nt WaHbinpton. The chief chem
ist s official report "f I bo tests of tho
baVinff powders, which was made for
the specific; imrpnen of ascertaining
wnicu wns trio nest, snows the leavon
ing strength of tho Roral to be 160
cubic inches of carbonic gas per ounce
of powder. Uf t ho cream of tartar
baking powders exhibited, the next
highest in strength tested contained
but 133 cubic inches of leavening gns.
Tho other powders gave au average of
111. Tho Hoyal, therefore, waafonnd
of twenty per cent, greater leavening
strength than its nearest competitor,
nnd forty-four per cent, above tho
average of nil tho other tests. Its
superiority iu other respects, however,
in tho quality of tho food it makes as
to fineness, delicacy nnd wholesome
lies, could not bo measured by fig
ures. It is these high qualities, known and
appreciated by the women of the coun
try for ho tuniiy years, that have
caused tho union of the Hoyal Baking
Powder, ns shown by statiaties, to ex
ceed tho sale of nil other baking pow
ders combined.
