THE BUSINESS OUTLOOK.
Rhe New York Tribune Reviews the
State of Trade With Satisfaction.

New YORK, June 13-The Tribune in its
commercial review of the past week, says
The hot weather Of the past week has given
an impetus to many kinds of retail trade
and has fastened vegetation SO far that large
crops are now generally expected. The busi
ness Of the week has been quite farge for the
season at New York, but its volume has
again been considerably swelled by specula
ton s)oahngs in stocks, in grain. in
oil aud in cotton have been very
large, while non-speculative wholesale
trade has not been especially active The
wooIen-goods market is in an unsatisfactory
condition, and declining prices of cotton diff
ctdt to realize profits on stocks of cotton
goods, while the change Of duties presently to
occur has tendency to check operations
both in foreign and in American goods Its
likely that there will be greater activity as
soon as the effect of the new tariff upon prices
has been disclosed The iron trade can
not be said to improve. The Thomas COM
pany has reduced the price of pig iron 81 per
ton and the failure of the Grafton company
has shown that the situation in the Pittsburgh
region is by no means free from difficulty
Still, the consumption is large, after all, and
the embarrassment comes from an over
hasty increase in producing power-a diff
Guilty which the growth Of the country and
the closing of some Of the least
economical works will soon remedy 1t
should not be forgotten that in almost every
branch of business the consumption is now
greater than had ever been known in this
country few years ago. For instance, the
new railroad mileage built this year, though
it is less than half the mileage reported to the
same date last year, is greater than was re-
ported to date in any other year in the his
tory of the country"

The Color Zine in virginia.

LOUISVILLE KY, June t3.-The Courier
Journals Washington special says: The ac-
ton of Governor Cameron, of Virginia, in
appointing colored school trustees in Rich
mond continues to meet with indignant pro-
test throughout the state. Several papers
have come out for making colored tax payers
pay for supporting colored schools, and white
people pay for supporting white schools, and
there is a strong feeling growing in favor Of
calling state convention to change the con
stitution as far as it bears upon the school
question The Richmond Dispatch, touching
the matter Of changing the constitution, says,
editorially: .''It might as well be understood
first as last that the whites of Virginia do not
intend to permit negroes to be trustees of
white schools This is humiliation to which
nobody has a right to expect the superior
race to submit y

New YORK, June 13-The Tribune saws:
The possessors of large cattle ranches on the
government domain have been stampeaed
within the last fortnight by the news that the
secretary of the interior means to have the
attorney general prosecute all who by false
evidence of other people have concentrated
large tracts Of land under one ownership to
the injury of the public under the general
homestead and settlement laws. IN Texas,
where the public domain belongs to the state
government, these prosecutions do not apply,
but they cover most of the country be
sides, except where they are Mexican grants,
and even these in many cases are believed
to be fraudulent In the Indian Terri
tory also the secretary of the interior has
moved against persons who have been graz
ing great herds of cattle by private contracts
with the Indian nations, who are not allowed
to deal in that way with American citizens,
except with the approval of the department
There are two classes of rogues figuring in
these instances the first being the rogue who
has made the tresspass on the public property,
and the other being the rogue who, seeing the
first to have good tlnng, proposes to get
after him with the machinery of the govern
ment to make him divide. or TO retain the
second rogue to get out of the trouble Nat
urally this city is the headquarters of all
classes of rancheros, and most of the success

Calious Lumps left from kicks other bruises,
without injurinR the growth of the hair. Has
proved a sure cure. For
Epizootic and Distemper, use from one to two
tabiespoonfuls in bucket of cold water, for
their drink when watering, and bathe the throat
until 1t blisters, then put cloth around the
throat to keep it warm.
The above Invaluable medicine has gained for
itself q fame to be envied by hundreds of manu-
facturers of Crude Oil Lniments that fail to per-
form cures recommended to do, and they re-
sort to many false recommendations to palm
them off on the public. The H. H. Il. Medicine
Is prepared from the very best essential oils and
costs as much as ten pounds Of any crude oil that
is put in ordinary liniments, and the proprietor
cannot possibly advertise to the extent that
class Of linimenIs do, as all the profit would not
pay the expense; SO that those who have any
knowledge of the difference between first-class
medicine and an inferior article, will not suffer
themselves to be humbuRged.
