trict shows registration of over 500

The democratic rally at K. Of L. hall
Saturday night, at which the Hon. Geo.
W Cassidy spoke, was a great success.
FrasE Hollywood, w. J. Penrose and
others also entertained the audience. A
number Of old Nevadans were present
who had heard Mr.. Cassidy on the ros-
trum before.
The FeatherlGsn brothers have closed
the Moore hotel, and the chances are
that after these gentlemen could not
make it a success it will keep any one
else rustling to do so, as they certainly
ran it with as much economy and gave
as good accommodations as was over had
on the Hill

men to work in the mine now every day.
and already the force has been increased
over that when the mill shut down last
spring. It is the general impression
that the coming season will be the most
prosperous this company has ever
known.
Many prospectors are row returning
from their seasons search throughout
the mineral regions, and all say the
season was much to the disadvantage of
prospectors. The forest fires have been
quite troublesome and prevented some
of the principal undeveloped sections
from being explored.
A mining tunnel is 10 be run in Chill
that will extend s.cn !nquiqui to Han
tagia. It will be s miles long, IA feet
wide and 20 feet high. In going less
than 600 feet the tunnel will have at
tanned depth OF 1900 feet, and at the

Raidel the Milk Wagons.

NEW YORK, Sept. 22.-The health de-
partment> made raid on every man
coming into the city with a milk can
An ambush Of great strength and de-
termination waited for them at the
Chambers street and Twenty y-third street
ferries and assailed every wagon. The
contents of the cans were tested with the
lactometer. and the result in nearly
every instance was one to disgust any
persistent official. The milk was found
to be above suspicion and no arrests were
made, though the contents of a few cans
which had suffered from the infection
of heavy morning dew were emptied
into the gutter. Either the milkmen
have all turned good or joined the
church, OF they knew we were coming"
said President Wilson, in explanation of
the nO1l-success Of this raid.

BUSINESS ENCOURAGING.
Il. G. Dun s. Co. Report a Healthy State OF
Trade Throughout the Country.

Il. G. Dun s. Co. Report a Healthy State OF
Trade Throughout the Country.
NEW YORK, Sept. 21.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'S weekly review of trade says:
Throughout the country the state of
business is encouraging, and the only
disheartening features are in connection
with speculative operations. Stocks have
not quite maintained the recent advance,
and have relapsed into dullness, with
sales of less than 100000 shares for the
week, the chief cause being the Western
railroad wars.
The report from other cities this week
correspond fairly with the clearings out
side New York, which show an increase
over last year Of about per cent. in the
aggregate, but an increase at two-thirds
of the cities. For the year thus far
Trade Exceeds Last Years.
Milwaukee, Kansas City, Cleveland and
Omaha each report increased activity,
and these are but illustrations of the gen.
eral tenor of reports. The great indus
tries appear to be gradually improving
in condition.
The partial failure of the potato and
fruit crops, and the injury to butter by
recent storms, cause an advance in
prices, and the general average for con-
ditions is now about per cent. higher
than Sept. 1. The unprecedented move
ment of cattle and fresh beef to England
attracts much attention. the exports hav-
ing been over 10000 head Of cattle and
100000 of fresh beef within three
months ending with August, besides "a
100000 pounds OF cured or canned beef.
With the National steamship line en-
gagged in transporting cattle rather than
passengers, this movement seems likely
to increase largely. And it is notable
that the export trade, though barely
maintained i'll some important branches,
steakily broadens by large increase in
minor items not hitherto important.
Business Failures.
The business failures during the last
seven days number for the United States
III and for Canada 81, or a total of 1875
failures, as compared with total Of 10:
last week and POI the week previous tc
the last. For the corresponding week
Of last year the figures were 22S, repre-
senting 200 failures in the United States
and % in the Dominion of Canada.

Tanner Promised Nothing.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 23.-The Evening
Star publishes the following from Albert
Daggett app;opos the stories that Tanner
had been promised the District recorder
ship i'll consideration of his resignation
from the pension commissionership: II

missioner Tanner was promised the re-
cordership or amy other Office before he
consented to resign. On the contrary l

unasl1ed and, of course, without promise
of future political ot1ice.''

canoes returned but the others did not.
