A frequent cause of injury to brakemen i' difference between cars in regard to the To- cation of bumpers. Unless the bumpers meet when cars are pushed together to be coupleds the brakemen are apt to be caught The decision of a case in a New York court holds railroad companies responsible for such accidents, and John Gottlieb, brakeman on the Erie road, is awarded $5 ,0Oo damages for the injuries he received. It is pleasant to be able to believe that the time is not far dis tant when men will not be crushed between cars at the rate they are now. Car couplers have been invented which do not require a man between the cars in order to make them work. A very promising invention of this kind is the Hohenstein coupler which has received several severe practical tests at a railroad yard in this city and has invariably worked to the entire satisfaction of the expe- rienced railroad men present at the trials.

Ex-Lieut. George L. ROusseau's End.
Laredo (Terd9 Times.

Last Friday evening just as the sun
was sinking in the west, all that was
mortal of George L. Rousseau, late a
Lieutenant in the Twentieth United
States Infantry, was laid to rest in our
city cemetery. His short life had been
checkered one. The son of Gen. Lowell
H. Rousseau, one of Kentucky's nOblest
sons, he was born in Kentucky about
the year 1854. He was left by the death
of his father in straitened circumstances.
and his early life was spent in various
vacations by which he supported him
self, until, in 1875, he was appointed a
Second Lieutenant in the army and
, served in it until, in an unfortunate diff
Guilty, he killed DR.. Rivers at Fort Clark.
| for which he was tried and acquitted,
| but for which and other difficulties he
was dismissed from the army at Fort
Mcintosh. During his confinement at
Bracketville he contracted the opium and
morphine habit, from which, although
he made strong efforts, he was never
able to free himself. Since his connec-
ton with the army ceased he was employ
ed for several months by the Mexican Ma.
tional Construction and the Rio Grande
Railway Companies, and at the time of
his death was employed as Quarantine
Inspector of the United States Marine
Hospital Service near this city. On
Wednesday of last week he came into
the city unwell. and he was staying with
Captain R. F. COrdua, of the Rio Grande
and Pecos Railway. On Thursday even
ing DR. A. w. Wilcox prescribed for
him, but he failed to take the medicine.
On Thursday morning, on being asked
by Captain Cordua how he felt. he re
piled that he was very sick, that
he himself knew what was the
matter with him, and that he had been
trying to kill himself for some time.
Not dreaming that he was contemplating
self destruction, Capt. Cordua became
engaged in writing, from which he was
aroused by the pistol shot, which pro-
duced instant death. Placing the muzzle
of revolver to the right side of his
head, just above the ear, he pulled the
trigger and the ball went crashing through
his head, and before assistance could
reach the spot George L. Rousseau had
breathed his last. Dependency, &C.
casioned by the increased and increasing
use of opiates (Which had affected seri-
ously his digestive organs) was doubtless
the cause of his rash act. His remains
were buried in our CITY cemetery on Fri
day evening, the Right Rev. Bishop
Elliott, of the Episcopal church, officiat-
ing, attended by number of friends and
/ acquaintance.

Business Conditions
Chicago Tribune.

There was no return last week of the
monetary stTingency of the week before,
and the country has consequently had a
respite from the unwelcome interferences
of the United States Treasury with the
loan market. Mercantile credit appears
from the lack of any significant failures
to be in a sound condition, but trade re-
ports are not all of a buoyant charac-
ter. Some signs of hesitation have been
noticed III some Of the leading branches
of business. Neither the clearings nor
the foreign commerce statistics indicate
quite the freshness and vigor of two
years ago, when all the wrecks of the
old panic had been swept away and none
of the keels of new one had been laid.
The clearings for the week Just passed
were 5 per cent. less than those
of the corresponding week of last
year. The latest statement of the Blu
reau of Statistics shows, instead of the
expected surplus of exports, a balance
against us of about So, 200, 600. But it
is comforting to reflect that this is a
diminuendo movement, as in May the
adverse balance was $19, 10000 The
doubtful point about our foreign trade is
in the marketing of our crops. Our
merchants have sent heavy orders abroad
for luxuries and necessities In anticlpa-
ton of a prosperous trade, as the natu-
raj result of our bounteous crops. If our
exports should be cut down by the IN

Willingness of farmers to market their
produce at ruling prices, the balance of
our foreign trade would suddenly in
crease in the wrong direction, as far as
permitting imports of specie was con-
cerned. So far the exr orts of bread
stutfs have increased in a most en-
couraging way. For the last eight weeks
they have amounted to 80 900, 563 bushels
corresponding two months of last
year. Cotton exports are beginning
TO catch up with the movement of
last year. But. taking the whole mer-
chandise export movement since
Jan. at the leading ports we find that
while breadstutfs have increased about
| $3,250, 900, provisions have decreased
| $4, 600, 900, and the decrease in cotton
makes a total decrease in merchandise
exports of about 100000. Imports
are heavy For August they were $65,
| 697, $50, and for the eight months of
this year the imports have gained at the
rate of 800, 900, 900 year over those of
1881. Twice before in the history of
the West has been seen what is now ap-
parently the cardinal point in our bust
ness condition. Short crops brought
high prices. These have been followed
by full crops, for which the farmers
wanted to obtain the scarcity prices of
the preceding season. Thus the move
ment of the crops to market inevitably
halts, trade is affected, collections become
slow, imports continue while exports
decrease, and there is something ike
panic in commercial activity, until new
equilibrium Of prices sets the wheels of
trade and commerce moving again.
Hence it is that the immediate future,
financial as well as commercial and in
dustrial, depends more upon the exports
of our grain and provisions than upon
any other single fact During the past
eight months the country has exported
Sal 437 318 in gold and silver in part
payment of an excess of $53, 800, 497 of
merchandise imports. If the imports
this fall and winter should increase and
exports should not keep up with them,
Europe will take another large handful
out of our specie reserves.
