conditions, are not satisfied with The aspects OF
the commercial situation and see in it few signs
OF business encouragement, and it would be
equally faulty TO alege that every stock Is weak
because it has been made to appear so in the

speculation has been for the moment
checked; first, because OF the poverty OF

recently caught on the wrong side, and.
secondly, because Of distrusr The examples

DEMPSEY. WARREN SHOOTING CAsE.-J.V.
Dempsey and Mrs. Lottie Warren, vino we're
supposed to have been fatally shot by the first
named, at 427 4th street, on the night Of the
23d ult., are both in a fair way to recover, and
it is expected that Mr.. Dempsey will be able
to be out 10 a few days. He probably ows bis
lite to the fact that the ball struck one of his
ribs, which diverted it FROM vital points. La
the. case of Mrs. Warren the force of the ball
was broken. by q rib Of steel or wbalebope in
her corset, and that probably saved her life.
The police, anticipating the recovery OF Demp-
sey, have procured warrant charging him With
assault aud battery with intent to kill, and he
will likely be. taken into custody as soou as he
is fully recovered Wash. Star.
