offering of chickens on this market and prices
have kept above those of any former year,
There is at all times good demand. Eggs

BUILDING MATERNAL.

BETTER facilities are offered lumber dealers
here for receiving their supplies from the mills
than in former years, and the consequence is
that stocks are large and well assorted, notwith-
standing the heavy drain made upon them for
building purposes in this city. Trade to the
country is better than in any former season.
Our brick kilns are still enabled TO supply the
growing demand made upon them but how long
this may continue is yet TO be determined. The
shipment of doors, sash and like material is now
very heavy. There have been heavy sales made
to the west and other directions of paints, oils,
lime and cement and the orders are daily in
creasing.

BOOTS AND SHOES.

No branch of business in this city Is increasing
more rapidly than is that of boots and shoes.
The advantages this market offers TO the whole
of north Texas is the quality and style; Dealers
here select their goods with view 10 this trade
alone, and country merchants have no trouble
in selecting Just what is suited TO the wants of
their customers Prices in Dallas are fully as
low as are those of any other wholesale city. in
the western or southern country, ard by buying
ting lust what they desire. These facts are be-
coming known generally and the consequence
5 that the business in this line is assuming real
y large proportions
A New York telegram says business in boots
and shoes are fairly active. Some buyers from
the south and westare already in the market.
Manufacturers are busy on fall goods. Although
the jobbng trade as yet is light a good sorting
up trade is doing. There is a better feeling in
the leather trade and most kinds are In good re-
quest at strong prices, though the business do
ing Is on y small margin Of profit.

The Industrial World, of this city, says:
stocks of merchant bar, rounds, and hoops are
getting badly broken, not only in this city, but
! at Cleveland aud other distributing points: The
stocks might be repienished with eastern iron at
higher prices but the trade feeling the uncer-
tainty of the prolongation of the strike, do not
care to overstock themselves with high-priced
iron; fearing that with settlement OF the labor
difficulties might come reduction in prices II
L said by good authority that stocks are fully
two thirds less in size than they. were at this
time last year. The North Chicago and the
Calumet malls are crowded with orders and con
siderable iron from Cincinnati and the east Is

Theft of watch and Chair.

Police Officer Clapp arrested Henry
Hershleld Sunday and locked him up in the
station house on q complaint made against
him by J. w. Douphrate, who charges him
with stealing his watch and some IS in
money. He was transferred TO the countyjail
yesterday. Douphrate, formerly Of this
city, but now a resident Of Fort Worth,
came over to spend Sunday and met up
with Hershfeld, when they drank good
deal Of beer. Donphrate got pretty full and
Hershfeld took him TO bed. When he
awoke he found bis watch and money miss
ing. The police have failed, 80 far, TO find
the watch, but learned that Hersbfeld had
tried 70 pawn and sell 1t. He denied at
first that he knew anything about the
watch, but finally told the officer that
Douphrate bad given It TO him, then that
he had loaned 1t to him,
but he still declines TO tell
what he did with Il, and now he again de-
MES ever having il. 1t has been but
short time ago that he was tried for forgery
in several different cases, OF which charge
he came clear on his trial owing 10 some
technicality ofthe law.
