TRADE AND COMMERCE..
A Fairly Active Day on the street-signs of a
Reawakening.

Reawakening.
INDIANAPOLIS, Oct 16.
There was more activity in most branches of
trade yesterday than has been observable for
GONE time. Some pretty large orders for gro
eeries were filed andthe total of business in this
line aggregated satisfactory amount There
was fairly good trade in produce, fruits and
vegetables. In all the staples there is remark
able steadiness in prices. We have no change
to note in quotations.
In the eastern markets the manufacturers re-
port fair demand for printing cloths The
stocks on hand at the close of the week were
about the same as one week ago. In fannels
there is great dullness. The recent heavy auc-
ton sales of hannels and blankets have filled the
demand and at the present low prices agents are
not pressing goods on the market Clothing
manufacturers say they are one month behind
on light weights because the trade is holding off
Clothiers eyince a determination to go slow
though they are we'll sold up
An upward turn in the value of
wool or cloths must be felt all through the
clothing trade. The reported stock of print
cloths hand Oct II, at Fall River, was
$4,000 pieces; at Providence 402, 900 pieces
and held by spectators (estimated), 400 900
pieces, total of ], 32l, 600, the same as on Oct
A. ,32S 600 Sept. q, and 1898 900 Sept. 90
Dealers report collections bad in the South and
money very tight The Boston Posts table of
clearances, at twenty-seven points, last week,
shows decrease outside of New York of u 2I0
per cent, and with New York a decrease of

VERY RICH MISS ST. PIERRE
What a Woman is Doing to Develop the
Hidden Wealth of the South.


From the Chattanooga Democrat
Miss Maud st. Pierre, the lady who
has become somewhat prominent in
this vicinity from the fact that she is
dealing extensively in mining and
mineral lands, is in this city. Recently
a reporter called on her for the pur-
pose of learning something of her pri-
vate secretary, John A. Neal, who dis
appeared last summer, and to find out
her plans of operations in the various
industrial pursuits upon which she has
embarked. Miss ST. Pieere is rather
tall, fine-looking lady, with erect car
riage, a keen eye and preceptible
something about her which unmistaka-
bly, means business. She advanced
without hesitation, shook hands with
the reporter and sat down.
"Tell me of your mineral land in
Franklin county"
"Well, / have purchased about 90,
900 acres of land in Franklin county.
lave in that property endless quanti-
ties of iron ore, coal, marble, sandstone
and timber. There are all through the
south numberless white families who,
through force of circumstances and ig-
norance are unable to make decent
livelihood. l intend to form colonies
and give them homes and employment.
I will give each family the timber to
build a house and then give them
lease on twenty acres for ten years.
These families are to be from the south.
I have an utter adherence of convict
labor"
what will be the estimated cost of
your various enterprises there?"
at will be about one tenth what it
would cost in any other place. In 9TH
er words it viii cost about 10000 J"
Have you any other mineral land
besides this ?"
"W'ell, have under my control 100,-
600 acres in Eastern Kentucky and 49,
900 acres in Cumberland county, this
State"
"'Tere you originally from England,
Miss St. Pierre?"
"Oh, no; was born in Louisiana, but,
having spent most of my life abroad a
great many people are of the opinion
that l am English. Ny father died
when / was about seventeen years old
and, having been in his confidence, was
thoroughly acquainted with his bust
ness aud consequently naturally took
charge of matters. My mother died
later on and then l went to Europe"
Miss St. Pierre spends most of her
winters in Washington and New York.
She comes South during the summer to
attend to her. business in the mountains.

Tavlor,s visit to Tennvson.

In one of Bayard Taylor's letters to.
E. G. Stedman, written in 1867. is the
following charming description of a
visit to Tennyson at harrington, his
country home:

ushered into the drawing room. The
house had been refurnished and great
many pictures and statues added since

the downs and walked for miles along
the chalk cliffs above the sea. He
was delightfully."- free and eonfden-
tial, and I wish I could write
to You much of what he said !:
but it was so inwrought with high phil
osophy and broad views of life that a
fragment here and there would not
fairly represent him. He showed me
all his newly acquired territory; among
the rest great stretch of wheat fields
bought for him by Enoch Arden. We
dined at in quaint room hung with
pictures, and then went to the drawing
room for dessert.

We mention this game, which we be-
