The manufacturers of carpetings are
extremely busy on orders for goods which
are selling at DC. to Zoe. per yard above
last year, and clothing manufacturers are
crowded with duplicate orders for early
delivery. The hosiery manufacturers are
gaming daily in orders, but competition
is still holding prices down. Silk and
worsted goods are firm in price, but any
farther upward tendency in goods or IN

BOOTS AND SHOES.

Boot and shoe manufacturers find de-
mand and are still backward. and both
jobbers and retailers are unwilling to pay
any advance on goods for spring and
summer delivery. Prices are a little
easier In hides and leather.
The anthracite and btuminous coal
combinations at present writing have not
been perfected, but only trifing details

railroad and manufacturing purposes
throughout the country are known to be
very large, and the heaviest production
ever known will be recorded this year

Travel in the Future.
From the Earth


When George Stephenson asserted his ability
to run passenger coaches at speed OF twelve to
fifteen miles an hour, scientific and practical
men deemed him fit for a iunatic asylum; but
time has shown that trains may be run at a
much greater velocity without materially add
ing to the dangers of railway travel The flight
OF the fast express ON the Pennsy lvania railway
is a marked example ot the possibilities in the
way OF sustaining high rates OF speed. This
road now runs the fastest train in America.
Nine hundred and twelve miles, including
seven stops, are accomplished in 25la hours
and the average time is 5000 miles an nour. A
portion OIL the distance Is run at the rate OF sew
enty-iVe miles an hour. At a speed OF sixty
miles an hour. the driving wheels of a locomo-
tive on this train make 25Sla revolutions "A
minute. VIM. II. Nan,ierbilts squirt OF 81
miles in 81 minutes on the New York Central

surprise TO good engineers, many of whom
are firm In the belief that 100 miles
an hour will yet be accomplished on
Meiygs read paper before the New York Far
mer's club on "Future Travelling in which
he expressed the belief that railroad cars could
be safely propelled Dy steam at the rate of 300
miles an hour. He said: 1.-The Emperor OF
Russia has taken the first steps toward what
deem the ultimatum OF railroad travel. Instead
of cutting what call a mere drill through the
country and going round everything in the way
Tor a straight line, he has cut q broad way Tor
$50 miles from ST. Petersburg to Moscow. He
has made 1t all the way 200 feet wide. SO that
the engineer sees everything on the road. This
is a part OF the future-the railroad from point
to point with mathematical line: the rails ten
times stronger than they are now used; the
locomotives on wheels OF tar grealer diameter;
the siguais and times perfectly settled; the
roads on both sides during the transit OF trains
instead Ut travelling at 100 miles an hour, We
shall more safely travel 800 miles an hour.
