TRADE AND COMMERCE..
The Cold Weather and Slow Movements of
Freights Interfering With Business.

The Cold Weather and Slow Movements of
Freights Interfering With Business.
INDIANAPOLIS. Feb. 10.
Doubtless the volume of trade is as extensive
as might be expected yet merchants are rather
blue but all are confident that only mild wealth
er and good roads are the essentials needed to
bring about more activity in all departments
This is confirmed by all the commercial travel
ers Prices are not weakening under the
freight distribution Sugars can hardly
be said to bs strong in the present
position. Neither are coffees, yet there
has been change for several days in
quotations The produce markets are sluggish
receipts of eggs more liberal and prices
are weaker, yet ranging % to 30 cents per dozen.
Butter is in fair demand. Poultry, if fat and
healthy, readily brings our best quotations. APP
pies and potatoes moving slow, so severe is the
weather. The wool market, as the spring
months approach, is attracting more attention
The Boston Commercial says: prices on all
grades of wool are generally unaltered although
occasionally half cent has been gained on some
such grade as fine unwashed. The impossibility of
advancing prices materially in spite of increased
sales is largely in consequence of the present
system of manufacture. Manufacturers are
now working on orders very largely. When an
order is obtained for goods at a certain figure
they go into the market to purchase wool at a
limited price, beyond which the price of the
goods will not allow them to go. If the price is
advanced. there is no sale. Interior markets are
quiet and unchanged The wool that is held in
Ohio and adjoining States is in strong hands,
and is not readily consigned in spite of the state
ments OF New York authorities. The price on
spot asked is generally 81 cents and even 81 At
this figure there is no margin whatever to the
handler. though at 30 cents there would be a
margin Of about cent for average lots. The
wool is, however, gradually dribbing out to the
geaboard

The local market is in a strong position. The
Board of Trade Price Current says of wheat:

THE LADY RAMBLER
Wants a Head Gear to Match the
SEowshOe Club Uniform.

How full of disapp0ntmentS and misun-
derstandings is this weary world, and with
the best of intentions how constantly liable
we are to get ourselves disliked. Now, of
course. l know what dainty, dapper dar-
lings our young men are; 1 am quite sure
that their TOILETS at all hours of day or
night, are unexceptionally correct; have
never for a single instant supposed that
they are unaccustOmed to the luXuries OF
life. or fancied that their wardrObes are in
any respect deficient; so, when l suggested
to the girls that pair of embroidered night
shirts would prove an acceptable Christmas
present to any gentleman, assure you no
covert meaning lurked beneath my plain and
simple language, neither did dream that
the most faStidious could take offense at
such gift. Yet all the week have l been
in communication with distressed Youths
who invoke dire vengeance upon me for my
supposed inSinuations, and inform me that
they have been brought up in embroidered
robes de mutt and consider those articles the
very common places of existence. Indeed,
were l not SO guiltless of intent to offend. [
would go down upon my knees in humble
apology; as it is. I can only say to the boys
that | am deeply hurt by their failure to
comprehend my motives. and if there are
any from whom l have not yet heard, they
may possess their minds in peace, for the
general public will. as heretofore, take for
granted all their little elegancies and refine
ments.

Fire ON Middle street,

Flames bursting from the third story of the
large block corner of Pearl and Middle Streets,
caused an alarm from box % at $50 D. m. yes

True q Co., woolens. on the first story, Lord,
Haskell Co., boots and shoes, in the second
story, AID FL. W. Race & Co., leather betting,
in the third story. The department quickly
responded. The workroom of the betting fac
tory occupies two-thirds the length of the
building and In about twelve feet wide, r.
was all oil light blaze, the fire catching from
glue pot that had upset under a large wooden
bench. Messrs. John f. Place and George T.

den Hand Grenades in the room and extin-
guished the flames No water was put on. but
stream OF water got into the hallway end
DID some slight damage to the stocks of Messrs
Lord q Haskell and Woodman, True & Co..
which we're located In the rooms directly under
the hallway. The rubber cloths spread over
the goods, however, quickly put q stop to any
serious injury. The building is insured for
$4,000. There are large assurances on all the
stocks endangered, and the loss will not exceed
few hundred dollars.
Since writing the above, we learn that an
employe OF Mr.. Race failed to extinguish
Kerosene lamp that was plsced under the glue
pot, and 1t Is supposed the lamp exploded and
set fire to the glue. Mr.. Races loss will be
about $780, Lord & Haskell's loss could not
be accurately ascertsined last evening: it will
probably amount to several hundred dollars.

Are they nrirnolsss

1t is quite certain that Portland has never
been SO aroused BY seemingly miraculous do
ings as it has been within the last three weeks
by the truly Wonderful Psychological Exhibit
lions given at Congress hall by Prof. Caldwell,
and the almost instantaneous cures of long
standing cases, that had baffisd the skill Of
other physicians for years, not only at the hall
but at the Citg Hotel where DIR. Damon, the
greatest of living Magnetic Physicians, has
held full sway for the above length of time.
Invalids flock to him in droves. and seldom
indeed does one go away without feeling
greatly benefited with only one treatment.
Long standing cases of deafness are cured in a
lew minutes, while rheumatism and paralysis
are cared as If BY magic. Truly, these most
wonderful things seem to us miraculous.
