There has been a decided Improvement in
the general dry goods trade this week, says
the Chicago Times, and a further cut in
prices for staple ginghams in response to
hostile movements upon the part of New
York wholesale merchants made lively
demand for the goods. The fight between
New York to secure the western trade has
Hfesulteo in a sharp decline in the most pop
ular prints and ginghams, and they are
consequently. having an unusually large
sale. Such printed dress goods as satins,
challies, lawns, batistes, chambrays pei
Gales, cambrics, wide indigo-blues, bIacl
and gold fancies and turkey reds are meet
ing with good demand right along. ST ch
soft wool fabrics as tricots, plaids, strip,
and novelties are in fair demand, and fancy
worsteds. cashmeres. henriettas, luster
rnohairs, printed all-wool and cotton-wal p
challies. printed beiges, etc, claim goo d
deal of attention from most buyers, VIII e
low-grade fancy cotton fabrics in mixtures,
yilaids, checks and stripes are very popular.

in Brazil. There are 334, 800 bags of coffee
in Holland, 1900 bags in Rio, and Az, 552
bags in this country and afoat for our
shores. The United States is the largest
consumer of coffee in the world, requiring
for its wants more than is consumed by
Germany, the United Kingdom, Austria
Hungary and France combined. Of the
coffee imported into this co lntry Brazil
supplies 70 per cent, Venezuela 10 per
cent, Central America per cent. and Brit
ish West India, Hayti, Mexico and
Columbia the remainder.
Teas are generally held rather firmly on
account of the recently large speculative
buying and the short crops in China. 1t is
stated that almost One-half of the entire
crop of Annoy Oolongs has arrived in New
York on the vessel Henrietta, which also
had LOCO packages of Formosas. The
cheapest class of teas are the better grades
of Formosas, which the market is tempo
rarily over-supplied with. Japan teas of
the early receipts of last years crop are
becoming scarce and firmer.

ing life the same sweet bed of roses it first
lay down upon, says the Mining Industry.
1t is loaded up now with 10000 tons of
copper, which cost about S45, 100000. And
the product of the world, which has been
greater than the demand for the metal, is
constantly increasing. The result must be
to still further increase it's holdings. The
capital of the syndicate probably never ex-
ceeded S25, 600, 600, at least that is the great
est amount that rumOr ever gave it, and
rumor is never below facts when it deals
with big figures The syndicate must con-
sequently have borrowed very largely upon
its stocks of copper. 1t looks as if it had
reached the limit of its ability to borrow,
because it is trying to organize a metal
bank in London to assume its load. In
other words, the Frenchmen appear TO be
trying to unload upon the 'sBloody Eng
lish.''
The syndicate cannot be far from its end.
According to the London papers it is losing
credit, and the largest metal brokerage
houses decline its business. Copper in
London market can be bought for 81 per
ton less than the syndicate is paying for it,
or agreeing to pay for it.
1t should not surprise any one if the col
lapse came any day. When it does come
the market for copper will be demoralized,
and the price probably fall below 10 cents
per pound. The uncertainty about when
that time viii come affects the market for
ore very serio usly, and is, to some
slight extent, checking operations looking
to extensive future production. Ore buy
ers will not make contracts for copper ore
extending into the future, because they
feel that the future has no promise in store
that is not dangerous.
The syndicate attempted an impossibility.
a commodity, by a policy that would in
crease production and reduce consumption,
without power to control either. 1t is the
greatest and apparently the most foolish
attempt to Overturn one of natures IN
changeable laws that the financial world
has ever seen. 1t is a pity that it would
not act as a deterrent and warning to many
other enterprises offered the dear public,
which in the future must take a place with
it as comiserables.

Got the Address,

One of the most remarkablest stories
to which the Paris exposition has
given rise, is the tale ofwhat happen
ed to a London city man. He went
to Paris with a party Of other tour
lists, and arrived in the morning, In
the evening, they all went out for a
stroll, and in some way he became
separated from his companions. He
could not speak French and he had
entirely forgotten the name of his
hotel. So, after vainly endeavoring
to discover it, what did he do but
drive to the railway static n and went
all the way to find out what address
he had given his wife. Then he start
ed again triumphantly for Paris

A PerseVerIng Thief.

The story told by a lady friend,
says the Brooklyn Citizen, shows,
among other things, that industry
and perseverance are as necessary to
success in thieving as in honest
means of earning aliving. She came
out of a bank with a young girl the
other day and noticed a. tough
looking youngish fellow on the curb
observing them narrowly. Giving
HIM an observing glance in return,
she and her friend crossed the street
and went up to an office in the third
floor of a building there, where she
gave the money just drawn to her
husband, and then started with her
friend to New York. Onreaching the
street again she noticed the same
"tough'' eyeing her closely, and gave
him a look that was full of warning.
Then the two ladies proceeded on
their way, thinking no more of the
fellow. In New York they separated,
intending to visit different acquaint,
ances. The next day her young
lady friend told her that as she
returned to Brooklyn in the even
ing and was endeavoring to push
through the crowd at the bridge
entrance she took out her pocketbook
to get the fare and held a IS bill in it
up between her thumb and the clasp
Just then she was pushed rather
roughly, and the man behind her
leaned over as if published by the
crowd. In that instant the IS disap.
peared, and turning to say that she
had dropped it to the man who had
leaned against her she saw him
squeezing his way out and recogniz
ed him as the very tough who had
been watching her and the lady who
narates this in Brooklyn. But before
she could speak he was out of sight
and the crowd was impatient all
around her, and so she let it 60. Sc
it appears that the thief watched
them go into the bank, and proba
bly, saw one of them draw money; had
followed them to the office building
spoken of, and thence to New York
had finally made up his mind that the
younger of the two, and the
smaller, would be the easier vic
tim, and had tracked her the rest
of the afternoon and evening until ht
got the chance to snatch the bill oil
the bridge entrances pretty solo
days work for IS; but there need b.
no doubt that he would have beer
willing to throw in assault and. bat
terry, with possible murder, for the
reward of circumstances had not rem
dered it unnecessary. But then, the
| $5 might have been $50, you see.
