the Land Commissioner holding that the
words devoid Of timber" in the timber
culture act necessarily meant without
timber" or destitute OF timber" Secretary
Noble says the intent of Congress in pass
ing the act was TO encourage timber
culture. and that il was not the purpose to
deprive the occupants OF the vast praries
OF the West OF the benefits OF the act il
there happened to be a single tree upon the
section. He holds that the words prairie
land or land devoid of timber" within the
spirit of the act meant land practically so.

1t is the most prominent characteristic of tho
present situation throughout the country that
the usual consistency OF commercial action IL
lacking; transactions and results for some
branches OF business highly satisfactory,

changes in the. interstate law, and the rapid
development OF manufactures Mt the
South producing effects which can-
not be fully measured. lBon production
has begun 20 decline. Prices are lower
at Pittsburg, but there Is better feeling in fin
ished bar iron there and at Philadelphia, and
the demand for plate, pipe, sheet and structural
iron continues satisfactory. Tho coal market Is
while waiting for adequate new supplies. The
future depends upon the state Of the dry goods
market, which is not now encouraging. The
cotton manufacture is active and healthy. The
trade in drugs and chemicals has become quite
active, with collections excellent but dive stuffs
dull. speculative movement in bread
stuffs has developed again. Wheathas advanced

ON advance of 10 cents per 100 pounds I'm hogs and
lard Oil has declined 31s cents, and cotton
sixteenth. The grocery trade has been active.
In sugar the demand is confined TO actual needs.
In spite OF some speculative advances the gen.
eral average OF prices for commodities is little
lower than it was May ?. The outlook in the
Northwest is regarded much more conf

crop prospects are encouraging, with the season
more advanced than usual and the acreage in
