Senator Culloms bill for regulating inter
State commerce is the fruit of the inyestiga-
ton made last summer, and as well as can
be judged from the brief abstract tele-
graphed is well-guarded and practical
measure. The need of some measure of this
kind has long been recognized. The matter
cannot be properly handled by the States,
and if tire railroads are to be regulated. at
all the work must be done by the general
government At the last session of Congress
both houses admitted the necessity some
measure of this kind, but could not agree as
to the provisions it should contain. They
have more light now and perhaps will sue
eeed better.

ADVICE FOR THE CIGAR-MAKaRs
n Y. Hour
1t must be somewhat discouraging to cigar
makers that in spite of all their strikes,
lockoutS and consequent lack of production,
there seems to be as many cigars in the mar
ket as ever and prices are not at all affected.
The natural inference is that cigar-making
is not hard to learn; if this is correct, u
would appear wise for members of the era1C
to do as little striking as possible.

Some Rice News.

| The rice trade of Louisiana will

reputable New York journals inter-

rice crop is regarded in that market,
and what influences are at work to
shape the future of prices:

safer and relatively cheaper. Advice

"Rice-The general inquiry is
without volume of stimulating char

sltlon to move with great deal of
care. Holders make a pretty good
display Of steadiness of really at
tractive grades, yet as a rule seem
to think it advisable to accept all
really full bids when they get them,
and while well enough sustained,
prices have no special baoyancy.
Reports received to day by houses
in this city from Louisiana note the
serious diminishment OF the crop

water in the Mississippi prevented

That such are the views actually
entertained in New York is certain,

reporting them is beyond question,
