DRYaOODy,

A Boston special says the volume of trade
shows no decided increase. The tone of the
market is har lily as strong as Il week ago,
but there is no disposition to force business
by concessions, except in few instance,
where II was necessary to close accounts nj
the end OF the half year. The leading
makes OF brown sheetings and shirtngs
are held at steady prices. Bleached shirt.
ings have been selling fairly, and stocks
are under good control. In cotton flannels
no list OF prices has been agreed upon and
no regular movement begun. Print cloths
have weakened little under the influence
OF a very light demand. In prints there is
no increased activity to report prices of
popular tancies are unchanged and still
quoted ate to 6lc. The finer makes OF
dress goods continue to receive some atten.
ton, but there is no animation in these
fabrics. There Is no improvement in the
WOODEN goods trade; the demand has been
unusually light.

PkUvlSIONS.

Inc following paragraphs are from the
CINCINNATI Price Currents weekly report:
our. returns for the week show an in.
crease IN the aggregate packing of hogs for
all points, compared with the proceeding
week, but small reduction from CORE,
spending time last year. The recent de.
cine IN prices OF hegs is regarded by some
as having had an influence in momenta-
rlly checking the free marketing of hogs, il
being argued that parties in the country
are generally very confident in regard TO
she outlook ofatiairs for nearly all kinds of
iarm products and provisions. At leading
trading points, however, this confidence Is
not so uniformly shared-in fact, the mast
week seems to have developed considerable
change.
Diring the past week the western mack.
ing mas reached 10000 hogs, against 1870, :.
0O0 last week, and 1i5, 900 last wear and
the total since March lst is 100000 short Of

downward. Yesterdays closing at Chicago
showed pork 40 cents lower than a week
Ago lard 10 to II . cents lower on near
iuture options, and greater disparity on

lower; compared with year ago, pork III
10 oo cents lower, lard rs cents higher on

LUMBER AND BUILDING MATERIAu

=, 1t has been universally conceded that
the red gum of the southern states would
supercede the high.priced and now very
scarce walnut for furniture and finishing
purposes, could any way be- discovered to
overcome its warning propensities. Very
extensive experiments have been going on
for some time past, having this object in
view, but, so far, no announcement has
been made of success, except in the case of
MIR. Van Etten, an Arkansas lumberman.
who claims to have discovered process by
which the wood may be cured of its liabili.

"As soon as the lumber comes from the
saw II is run into kiln, where Il Ia de.
luged with steam twenty.four hours. Al
the end OF that time II Is claimed that the
life Of the wood is destroyed, and is ready
to be piled, just the same as though Il never
had a taste Of purgatory. AS much atten.
ton should be paid to drying as if nothing
had happened. II should be placed care.

acres are being sown in wheat this spring
Careful and experienced judges predici
that, granting a favorable growing season
more wheat will be harvested this yea
than last, despite the areal diminulion
Should this prophecy be fulfilled, the re
suit will have been achieved solely by
greater care in the selection of seed and
preparation Of the soil. The crop of 1888.
amounted to IS, 600 600 bushels, and short
time since careful investigation revealed
the fact that l6 per cent, or 8, $4,000 bush
els still remained in first hands. Ace, rd
ing to this calculation, about l 100000
bushels are being held for export. In 1881
with larger acreage than in 1882, onIy
100000 bushels were exported; and in
1880 the amount reached 100000 bushels.
The almost unprecedently backward sea.
son now upon MS inspires general complaint
not only throughout Minnesota, but in
Wisconsin, Iowa and Dakota. Ii has been
a long succession of snow and transforms,
accompanied by uniformly low tempera-
ture, and only with the utmost persever.
ance have the farmers been able to do
their seeding. Nearly all the wheat and
smaller grains have now been sown, howev'
er, but corn-planting is being so delayed
as to cause not little apprehension.

TELEGRAMs from London bring the
report of terrible calamity which hap
pened at Sunderland, in the county of
Durham. on Saturday evening, involv-
ing the death of ISS children. An en-
tertainment was being given by conju-
rer in hall, which was attended prin
cipally by children, several thousand be-
ing in attendance. At the close Of the
performance, the body of the hall had
been entirely cleared, when 1000 little
ones came rushing down stairs from
the gallery. At the top Of the first
flight of stairs is door through which
only one could go at a time. At this
point. as the children were pushing for
ward one of them fell, and was unable
to rise owing to the others crowding.
The result was that in a few moments
a great number of them were pushed
down, trampled upon, and suffocated.
The excitement when the news spread
was intense, and about 10000 people
soon surrounded the hall. A regiment
of infantry was ordered out TO preserve
order. The work of getting out the
bodies was soon done, and they were
laid out in the hall until identified.
Parents were allowed to enter to identi
fly their children, and the shrieks of
mothers constantly filled the air, many
fainting. In some homes there are FIVE
children dead. Many of their survivors
had their arms, limbs, ribs and other
bones broken. The dead range in age
from to IA years. Many who came to
assist in getting out the children, sick
ened at the spectacle, and fed horriied

The End of the Long Trial.

On Thursday the jury in the celebrated
Star route trial at Washington brought in
a verdict acquitting the defendants. The
verdict in effect is that the Government
failed to legally establish case of con-
spiracy to defraud the government, against
the defendants. The case is one of the
most remarkable on record, occupying
over six months in the trial, and costing
over million of dollars. The govern
ment exhausted every effort to secure JUS
tice. Able counsel of both political par
ties were brought to the assistance of the
[. ). Attorney, and no stone was left un-
turned to protect the interests of the
State. An intelligent and unbiased jury
7, listened to the testimony for six months
and gave it their most careful conSidera-
ton, bringing in a verdict of acquittal.
In the opinion of the twelve men sitting
in Judgment, a case was not made out
against the defendants beyond a reaSona-
BILE doubt, and in that view they were en-
titled to go free. The verdict must be
accepted as an honest one.
