CmcAGo, February 1O-The unsettled
condition OF affairs on Change has made
lively work at the banks, where margins
have been sharply called down, and money
continues in good, even and active de-
mand by other classes Of borrowers-par.
ticularly as the prospects are for an early
spring. Loauable funds keep pace with
the demand, and the condition Of finance
is good .ClearanOes for the week aggre-
gate estimating Saturday, $4,000 1000,
which is falling off compared with the
average OF late, but compares well with the
same period last year. General business,
though slow in starting up since the holi-
days, is gradually becoming more lively,
and stirring in dry goods is noticeable,
which inspires belief OF an active spring
trade.
Drugs and oils are in fair demand and
hardware is fairly animated,
Groceries are barely steady, but prices
are not changed Alfother staples are in
good, fair supply and demand,
Building materials are firmly held In an.
ticipation Of a rush to erect residences and
business places In the spring.
Notifications continue TO come in OF firms
coming hither from other cities.
Coal is in excessive supply, and owing TO
the light demand and warm weather coal
dealers are discouraged and prices drop
steadily.
The weeks business on change, which
begun with dull markets and high prices,
increased daily in activity and prices
dropped steadily until to-day, The lowest
rates on wheat was o Sc lower than Monday 3
best quotation.
The corn quotation was 4!c below Mon
da's best Oats dropped &c; pork, 75c; and
lard, 40c. The highest price in each case
was quoted Monday; the lowest to-day.
The break in provisions, though compar.
lively q quiet one, WAS nevertheless signifl.
cant, and the drop Of forty cents on lard
caused a sensation. With all the breaks
in prices there have been no failures, and
the anxiety which usually accompanies
such movement has been wanting this
time. One Of the reasons is that the bulls
in this deal are generally heavy operators,
while the smaller traders on the contrary
are bears,
No great amount Of grain has been
handled by any firm, except for a short
scalping deal, Stiff freight rates work in
the interest Ot the short side while the
weather, which is almost balmy, gives
promise Of early seeding 10 the farmers
Sales for the week for the March option
ranged as follows: Wheat, 81 25ial SlI;
corn, 5DlaO0ic oats 39ia42lC; pork, SIS 00l
Is IS; lard, $ll 02lall 42l. Although tht
range on these articles was little lower
each day there was no pronounce1 sudden
break, such as making and losing fortune
in day. The attrition Of prices was very
moderately accomplished.

now.
Wheat has been the leading feature Ol
the grain market, and the other grains fol.

market is steadily downward, the clique
apparently being unable to uphold prices.
At the close there was some recovery,
which was lost at the news Of the heavy
failure Of Preston & Co.
The provision market has been very un-
satisfactory and the tendency downward.
Fluctuation was slight, however.
In cotton the volume OF business has
been very large. There has been sharp
decline Of laac per pound, and the market
closed barely steady,
In wool there has been q regular and

change in prices, but good feeling ia OBJ.

In leather there has been fair demand

Of goods.
Manufactured iron for building purposes
is in large demand, and fair amount OF
business doing in American pig iron, and
prices are firm. Trade is not so active as
in January, but still it is satisfactory.
There is moderate demand for Scotch
pig iron, and the importations continue TO
be large and will be for some time. Con-
siderable business is doing in steel rails,
but iron rails are neglected.
The open weather has maintained the
steady demand for building lumber, and
prospects for a still larger demand are
good. Prices are very firm.
The raw sugar market is stronger with
an upward tendency; refners stocks be-

The.tea market is quiet and prices are

There is more inquiry for Brazil goods
in coffee, and prices are flrmer with better

The cheese market is dull and prices are

FAILURE RECORD.

NEW York, Februs1y lO-Failures con-
tinue to diminish, the report of r. G. Dun
& Co., Of the Mercantile Agency showing
but lSl in the last seven days, against 142
the previous week. The Eastern States
contribute 10, Western 40, Southern "a,
Middle 2S, Pacific Coast 5, and New York
City 5. The principal failures in New
York City were those Of P. L. French 4
Co in the cloth business, and W. R, Pres
ton 4 Co., grain and cotton commission.
The latter firm Is reported 10 have lost
three or four hundred thousand dollars by
decline in cotton and grain within week.
It Is. not known yet how much their liabili.
ties are or how they will come out. Look
ing at the failures as whole critically, it is
evident they are resolving themselves more
and more into two kinds, viz: Those caused
by speculation more or less illegitimate, and
those which are directly fraudulent and
collusive. The want OF strong, severe
national bankrupt law was never more felt
than at present.

VIZ believe it is not an uncommon idea
in fact, we were informed recently,
by a gentleman, that previously to
coming here, and for day or two after
his arrival, he shared the beliet-that
down in this southern state Of Tennes-
see life and property were held on easy
tenure. The gentlemen in question
walked about With one hand in his
pocket on half-cocked pistol, with his
eye, as Shakespeare expresses it, "in a
fine frenzy rolling" on the lookout for
some threatening manner, or murderous
attack. But not one or the other
appearing, he speedily found he had
been misinformed, and that his life and
possessions were as safe a. if he we're in
New York, Philadelphia, or Boston. He
found, and we can fully corroborate his
statement, that the people among whom
"we live, and move, and have our
being" are as orderly and peace-loving,
hospitable and kindly, as any to be met
with in other sections of the country,
and that generally the laws are clearly
and promptly carried out. As far as we
can Judge there is no bitterness in the
politics down South to interfere with
the safety Of person or property, and fol
this section we can speak with positive
assertion. A large number Of men
directly from Northern States, are living
| in Morgan and Fentress counties, follow
ing various callings, but the difference
of the past and present political view
do not raise any question dividing
society.

In the death of the Hon. Horace May

Knoxville, last Tuesday, Tennessee loses
one Of her foremost citizens. Men of
both political parties will lament his
departure, as he was singularly con
scientious and straightforward poll
tician and on many occasions had been
delegated to fill important public
positions. Although for many years a
Tennessean majority differed from Mr..
Maynard, he ever met with respect on
account ofreal ability, superior intellect,
and honesty. As speaker he was far
above the average. He was elected te
the thirty-fifth Congress from Tennessee
and served almost continually till the

DR.. LAMsoN has been hanged on the

BILE comment has been made on the
case by the press of this country,
Lamson having relatives in New York.
The plea of insanity was raised, but
it is rather singular the counsel con
Quoting the convict's defence was not
instructed to raise the plea. Lamson,
also, just previous to execution, ad-
mitted the justice of his sentence, an
admission surely of some consideration.
The criminal law of England is not a
blood-thirsty one, neither does it with
hold the benefit of doubt in the case
of the most heinous crime. We feel
confident every consideration the Amer
lean af6davits deserved was given them,
and that in allowing the sentence Of
the law to take it's course justice was
not outraged. It is scarcely seemly tc
take an imaginary mote out of Sir
William Harcourt's eye, while United

Concord, Mass, on Thursday evening.
He had been suffering for some days
from pneumonia, probably contracted
when attending the funeral of his
friend Longfellow. He was close upon
eighty years Of age, having been born
in 1903. It is little singular America
