The demand for money at the inte-
rior has fallen of, but
rates are upheld Mercantile collections
are snerally backward. Country roads
throughout the West are generally heavy
and trading is restricted in consequence.
At most points spring trade is only moder-
ately active though Pittsburg, Detroit and
Omaha report improvement. In general
operations are mainly for acsusl require

He is Weaker and not so well-Hls Sys-
tenn Good.
WASHINGTON, March 26.-Mr. Man
ming son Of Secretary Manning, said to an
Associated Press reporter, at l | o'clock TO-
day, that the condition of his father re
msined practically unchanged. The ply.
sicians had informed him that his father
was passing through critical stage Of his
disease and that every hour passed without
indications Of unfsvorable symptoms was
30 much toward recovery. Mr. Manning
said his fathers system was
in good condition ard his pulse
as strong and natural as that of person
in good health, end as be possessed consid-
erable vitality his family was encouraged
to the belief that be wonld come through
all right. They all realized however that
he was in critical condition, not entirely
out OF danger. Mr.. and Mrs. j. A. Dele.
panty, of Albany, and Miss Mary f Man
ming, the Secretsry's daughter, arrived here
this morning. Mrs Delepsrsy is the Sec
retary' aister They we're not summoned
but came because of the alarming news
paper statements IN regard to the Secre-
tsry's condition. Mrs. R. L. Fryer, OF
New York, Mrs. Mannings sister, who has
been at tha house for several days pIst, re-
turned to her home yesterday.
DR.. Hamilton said today that it could
hardly be said that Secretary Man.
ning's condition this morning was
the same as it was yesterday. There was
temporary improvement last evening,
but it was certain that his condition to-day
showed no improvement since yesterday
1t is learned from other sources that the
Secretary passed q restless night with more
or less fever, and that consequently be was
somewhat weaker this morning The ru.
mors regarding a proposed change in the
head Of the Treasury Department arise
probably from on almost general impres
sion that Mc. Manning will never resume
the duties OF that Office even in the event
Of his complete restoration to health.

WASHINGTON, March 26-Among bills

Hoar said the bill was suggested by the
reports of recent occurrences at Csrrolton,

in regard to those occurrences, but news
papers Of both political parties seem 10
agree about them. According TO these re.
ports a wanton and aud unprovoked crime
had been committed recently in tie death
of q large number Of citizens in which the
victims were sll of one race and. he pre-.
sumes, Of one political party. and all the
murders Of another. Such occurrences,
