A Great Commercial Paper.

"Bradstreet's" weekly financial and
commercial paper, published in New
York, from its establishment six or seven
years ago, has held the lead of all finan-
cial and commercial journals issued in
the United States and suffers nothing,
but on the contrary, gains by comparison
with the best financial papers published
in London. The secret of its success is
first the immense capital behind it.,
81 400, 000 second, the ability with
which an immense expenditure is di-
rected so as to produce the most valuable
results. The Bradstreet Company has
nearly 100 branch offices, 600 salaried
employees and 65, 900 regular correspond
ents. No paper in the world has such an
organization. With its staff of reporters
and correspondents and the free use of
the telegraph, it is enabled to present its
readers every week with a review of the
condition of business in every leading
city and section of the Union for the pre-
ceding week, and to within few hours
of going to press. It's special articles,
prepared by experts, with all these
facilities for gathering statistics, on
industrial and other matters, and
on the conditions and prospects
of leading crops, are a feature
that no other journal has attempted
either with such completeness or fire.

In re estate of Thomas Cummins, con-
tinued from the 9th The executor is
not present, being i'll and confined to his
house. The Court orders that the item
for board of decedent charged by the
Waimanalo Sugar Co., which is an ag-
gregate of $1O6, be disallowed. The ex-
ecutor is directed to realize upon the
house OF deceased, now on the planta-

In respect to the horses claimed to be-
long to the estate, the Court did not
make a ruling, as the evidence adduced
was insufficient to adjudic2te thereon.
In the matter of the claim of Ashford &
Ashford, the Court said that Thos. J.
Cummins was not the man that could
strictly be held to the bargain for the re-
tainer, but ordered that as an offer of
$500 was rendered to the Messrs. Ash

THE POST OFFICE ROBBERY CASE.

The acquittal of Walker on the charge
OF robbing the Post Office was foregone
conclusion. Public sentiment was in
his favor, and. the evidence OF guilt was
not conclusive. Who is responsible for
the miscarriage of justice in this case it is
not for Us to say, but it would be a mock
cry to suppose that the ends of justice
will be satisfied by the conviction o
Peterson OF embeZzlement. Where the
footprints of guilt were so clearly defined,
the failure to convict the guilty is a re-
proach to all concerned.
