ceived. After the speeches Mayor Ames
was best eyed, every one being anxious for
the honor of shaking the genial doctors

feature was the route it trayersed, piling
up the waters before it and pouring them
upon the low coast of Texas. About the

Subsequent reports from its route, espe-

track of the storm center has been lost, the

THE STATE OF TRADE.
There is Less Activity and a Fall
ing Off i'm Massachusetts.

NEW YORK, Oct. 15.-Special kilograms
to Bradstreets note moderate check in
the movement of general merchandise
throughout the country. This appears to
be due in part to natural reaction follow
ing season of active trading and in part
to the effect of the late period of unseason-
ably warm weather. This is notably true
at Boston, New York, Philadelphia,
Pittsburg, Chicago and ST. Louis.
The situation, however, still con-
tinues VERY favorable, with quite a
full value of transactions and a very wide
spread feeling of confidence in the future.
The total bank clearings from thirty cities
begins to reflect the check to the course Of
trade, with an aggregate of S1,096, 921 ga
against 81. 2O5. 3O3, 1877 last week. The de-
cline in the week is per cent. and the
gain, as compared with the second week in
October, 1885, is 10 per cent New York
lost SIC, 900. 600. Philadelphia $4,000, 900.
Roston $12, O09 and Chicago 100000 600, as
compared with last week. The domestic
money market, as whole, has not
not been quite so strong as
week ago. Cincinnati particularly re-
porting money returning from the West.
The New York stock market has been in
the main quieter, with considerable reac-
ton from the higher pressure of the pre-
ceding two weeks. Later, there was some
attempt to revive the bull feeling, one
stock (Manhattan) showing phenomenal
advance. The total number OF shares
dealt in this week is 1925. 96S, against
5, 3O3, 71e last week, and 3 $50, 129 in the
corresponding week last year. Bonds have
been firm with advances in some speculative
issues Transactions for the week are S10,-
107, 200 against S11, 835, 100 last week.
Money at New York has been extremely
firm and an increased demand from mercan-
tile sources has kept call loans at from and
per cent, as high as 10 per cent. being
asked in some instances, with time money
scarce and in active demand at per cent.
Foreign exchange has been at the gold inn
porting point during the greater part of the
week, and while il is firmer to-day,
importations of gold are expected. While
dry goods have not been quite as active as
last week, bleached cottons are nc higher
and firm. Print cloths are no more active
at the advance. Clothing is being dis
tributed literally. Southern cotton goods
are said to be sold ahead of the supply.
W DOL is moderately active and prices are
easily sustained. The domestic clip is
known to be short. Louisville advices are
to the effect that the damage to leaf
tobacco will not exceed per cent. Bread
stuffs are not much stronger. The late adj
vances do not appear to be permanent. Pig
iron advances and the demand in the South
and West is in excess of those of the East.
The business failures occurring throughoue
the country during the last seven days
number for the United States 100 and for
Canada 49, or a total of 179, as compared
with total of 100 last week.

Reecher stirs Up Strife.

LONDON. Oct. 15.-Rev. Henry Ward
Beecher delivered an address to-day in Rev.
DR.. Parker's city temple on Pulpit Work"
He dwelt upon the aid the newspaper rem
dered the preacher. A number OF ques-
tons were asked as to his idea of the doc
trine of retrbution. and his answers caused
intense excitement several divnes rising to
their feet and loudly protesting against his
views. Mr.. Beecher retorted that any men
believing in retribution who married, en-
tered society or smiled was monster. He
preferred working through fear springing
from love rather than through fear Of the
barbaric doctrine of retribution.

THE EASTPORT FIRE.
1t Destroyed the Town. and the Loss
is at Least 100000.


EAsTPoRT, Me-, Oct. 15.-The fire
which broke out at 2 o'clock yesterday aft
ernoon ragged furiously for ten hours, defy
ing all efforts to control or arrest it. It
started in Capen & McLean's sardine fac
tory, and swept in northeasterly direction
along the water front and through Water
street. burning ten sardine factories, two
hotels. about thirty dwellings, the custom
house and postoffice, and every place of
business where goods Of any description
were kept for sale, except two small grocery
stores which were out of the path of the
fire. 1t is impossible at this time to make a
detailed report of the losses sustained or to
ascertain the amount of insurance, but the
total loss will probably amount to at least
$500. 900. fairly covered by insurance, ex-
cept the loss On the sardine factories, which
could not procure insurance. The factories
gave employment to 1000 persons. Great
suffering must ensue unless immediate aid
is rendered. Contributions can be for
warded to Hon. n. B. Mutt. collector Of
customs. Telegraphic communication was
cut off at p. m. yesterday, and has just
been reopened.

PRESTON, MIMI, Oct 15.-The Window
meeting at this place tonight was largely
attended, most of the audience being ladies
and children. The speaker avoided the
issues of the day, except the tariff ques-
ton. and harped on the old strain of the
short cOmings and unfulfilled promises of
the Democratic party, saying that as an
organization they were the monumental
fraud of the nineteenth century. He said
the ticket in this district was Ames. Will
son and reform. and that reform would
have a hard time of it before
it got through. Referring to the
tariff he said: 81 am in favor of
protecting American industries and labor.
NO tariff passed now would be equitably
adjusted fifteen years hence, and no tariff
passed fifteen years ago is equitably
adjusted now. I am in favor of reducing
the tariff to the lowest possible limit that
will sustain the government and protect
the interests of the American people" The
audience was largely made up of people
from neighboring towns, and great many
