Information concerning the manu.
featuring industries of Russia. There
are about 1900 factories in
the empire, producing goods to
the value of 500. 6O0, 900 roubles ($325,-

sale trade IS almost entirely in the hands
of Germans-that is, either Russian SUBJ
jects of German origin, or subjects of
the German Empire. Among the
manufacturers, on the other hand, the
Russian element predolninates. Import
ed goods, which formerly came chiefly
from France, are now almost entirely of
German production; year by year the
French imports are diminishing while
the German imports are increasing.

There are highly nervous or sensi.

Gifted by insulating their bedstead from
the floor. Their experience leads them
to believe that without insulation their
magnetic forces are drawn off. They
have tried it both ways. Without in
sulation they arise in the morning feel
ing sense of lassitude and an inability
to enter upon the duties of the day.
With insulation they arise full of en-
ergy and ready for any task. The insu-
lation is effected BY using either thick
plate glass or pieces of rubber under
the feet Of the bedstead. There are
those whose sleep is not only more re-
freshipg but more unbroken when this
plan is pursued. We would therefore
commend this experiment to those who

George Eliot and Her Reported
Marriage.
st. Louis Republican,

st. Louis Republican,
Some of the admirers of GEORGE
Eliot who was regarded as Mrs.
Lewes in her social circle-appear to
have been greatly shocked at the re-
port that she had married SO soon
after Mr.. Lewes' death-within twelve
mOnths-and to a man many years her
junior. The circumstances under
which George Eliot and G. ii. Lewes
formed their life companionship and
brayed the world were such as could
only be tolerated or excused upon
the ground that the woman and
man had a deep and sincere affection
for each other. while there existed
permanent barriers to their legal mar
riage. These facts were publicly
known, and the life of George Elliot
and Lewes were just as public. They
made the social situation, and the
public accepted it, and the gossip Of
scandal was lived down by truth and
devotion, and c%Cnstaney of the pair
who dedicated their lives to each
other without the usual forms of the
welded state.
The report Of George Eliot's hasty
marriage to a Mr.. Cross. "the repre-
sentative of an American financial
house. caused some natural comment
among the readers Of the greatest OF
living female writer's, who believed in
the pure religion of her heart. The
admirers of George Eliot may, how
ever, make themselves perfectly easy.
and continue to burn the incense OF
their idolatry without stint, for now
the report comes that George Eliot
is not married, and does not intend To
marry. The person who married Mr..
Gross is Mrs. g. II. Lewes, the LEGAL
widow Of Lewes from whom he sepa-
rated many years ago, and before he
formed his lie connection with
George Eliot. OF Mrs. G. Ii. Lewes
the public knows nothing, but the
name, so announced, made an CHROME.
Gus impression which is now removed
by the correction and explanation.

WASHINGTON, May 21.-Congress

concluded to accept the inevitable.

the Bayard marshal bill, The bill
now goes to the speakers table, where
it can be easily reached and passed by
the democrats of the house, unless
the republicans resort to flibustering.
Garfield, Hawley, and other republi-
cans, however, have promised to use
their influence in favor Of giving the
measure fair consideration. Hence
the prospect is that the bill will 20 10

Mr.. Morgan makes his argument on
the electoral bill to morrow, it is ex-
pected that consideration of the Kel-
logg case will be resumed. Two OF
three more speecheswill be made on
the case. Then it is understood that
Senator Hampton will move to post
pone indefinitely. After This has
been disposed OF, consideration of the
electoral count question will be re-
sumed.

TIE growing crops give assuring
indications. of a heavy trade in the
carly fall, and an improvement in sew
eral branches during the next few
weeks. Potatoes are in elegant order,
and almost ready to dig. The crop
will be liberal. A trader who has
been out among the growers says the
fields are clean and the potatoes ex-
c%ellent. Wheat is also in good CON
dition, and is nearly ready to harvest.
The crop of the entire northwest, save
a few counties in Kansas and Iowa,

yield. The present value of this i'm
poltant cereal is about the same as it
was q year ago, though by midwinter
it had risen nearly 40 cents per bushel
above present figures, and a difference
of nearly " per Dbl in flour prevailed.
Our markets at this time are all quiet
and easy, with the exception Of two
or three LEADING articles Of prime ne
cessity. Corn is in active demand
and at firm figures, the supply being
inadequate to requirements. The
better grades of -four are moving in a
moderate way, lower qualities being
in no demand whatever. There is
also a good demand for smoked meats,
with poor supply. Other qualities of
meats move lightly. Outside of the
articles named trade is quiet, except
in chickens, fer which the demand is

MEMPHls, lbNN', May 20, 1901 ,
While the present business outlook
is exceedingly quiet, the general ex-
preston is that the ensuing fall and
winter will be one of great activity;
perhaps the heaviest in volume on
record. The cotton crop is larger in
acreage than last year, when half a
million bales beyond any crop on
record was produced. AT present the
prospect is all that San be desired.
The tobacco crop is not so promising,
though it is yet too early to estimate
results, The crops of the west are
also in good condition, and indi-
cate a prolific yield. AT the same
time the opinion is general that lead
ing articles have touched bottom
prices. Our local money market ex-
hibits no fuctuating features. Money
is in liberal supply and mercantile
discounts remain at 8 per cent. Out
side interest rates range from 6 to 10
per cent.
