Boston Traveller asserts that there is not large town
in Massachusetts, in which an audience of at least
two thousand persons cannot be collected who would
loudly applaud any speaker for rdieung the Bible as

the burning of witches in New England, and the burn

Commercial Intelligence.

Shreveport, March j. 1899
Our merchants have had another dali week and from
present appearances we fear 1t Is not the last What
little there doing in the wholesale dry goods line
was confined principally to orders. The grocery trade
had one good days in loading boat for above
the raft This duilness in trade is easily eXplaned All
the country merchants have gone visit to New Or
leans and the planters busy with their crops, while
the professional WAGNER is delayed in his trips by the
impossible condition of the roads leading into the ill.,
terror. These think sufficient reasons for the
paucy of trade. The stocks hand were never arg-
en- that of Western produce in particular, and prices
very reasonable. Money for the movement of cotton
is equal to the demand on letters of credit and cotton
exchange when shipped to tirst-cass houses. Small
notes in currency rather plentiful and all de-
mands are sup piled for small consideration.
