r. q. Dun s Co. Take Il Rosy View of the
Trade Observation-Disclosures Active and
Healthy.
New YORK, Oct. 4-R- G. Dun Il Co.'S
weekly review of trade says:
Never before has there been in any
month SO great an increase in the circu-
lation or so large payment of public
debt as in the month just closed. Do
mestic trade is improving in all direc-
lions and at least for the time there is
also improvement in exports which now
show for the past month q gain Of seven
per cent. over last year at New York.
Of the magnitude of domestic trade it
appears that actual payments through
clearing houses outside New York were
in September 161a per cent. greater than
last year. This is partly due to higher
prices, for the general average of com.
modities, has risen one per cent. during
the past week and has been over per
cent above last year for the past month.
But the earnings of railroads as far as
reported for September show gain over
last year of ~ per cent. and the move
ments of cattle and of cotton is particu-
larly heavy. In spite of the short crop
the movement of oats exceeded last
years while the decrease in wheat
and corn is partly balanced by increase
in flour.
The details given show that in all
parts Of the country and all important
branches of business there is phenome-
nal activity, and nevertheless there is
comparative freedom from speculative
excitement or disturbances The gen.
eral soundness of trade is shown by the
reports of failures, which for the third
quarter of 1890 were smaller in number
and amount of liabilities than for the
same quarter of 1889

Characteristic Scenes in the Magistrates
Court Over the state Trials.
DUBLIN, Oct. 4.-Thc hearing in the
case of the Government against Messrs.
Dillon and OBrien and the other Ma
tionalists who were arrested on the
charge of conspiracy was continued in
the magistrates court at Tipperary.
Much excitement was Occasioned in
the court room by the evidence of one
of the witnesses, policeman, who tes-
titled that he followed several OF the
defendants into the vestry of the Cath
Ole church and tried to overhear what
was said there by them. This aroused
the indignation of counsel for the de-
PENDANTS and he demanded to
know if the penal days had
returned when the sanctity of
the confessional could be invaded The
court room became babel OF cries and
the confusion was SO great that it was
impossible to go on with the proceed
ings. The court was therefore adj
iourned for half an hour.
When the court reopened the police
man was cross-examined by Mr.. Har-

He refused to do so and was ordered to
leave the case. An uprOar ensued,
Messrs O'Briea and Dillon commenting
freely upon the manner in which the
case was conducted
Finally another half hours adjourn
ment was ordered Dur ng this Mr..
Harrington's clients decided to defend
themselves
When the proceedings were resumed
Mr. Dillon had just begun to address
the bench when . cheer was raised for
Mr. Harrington This SO exasperated
the magistrate that he ordered the
court cleared and the proceedings were
adjourned abruptly amid the greatest
confusion

Tho Capital Question Causing . Hostile
Feeling-A Regular Mob Invades tho
Legislative Halls.
GUTHRIE, Ok. Oct. 4.-Long before
daylight yesterday morning anxious
men could be seen in little knots of two
and three discussing the capital situa-
ton. Pistols could be easily located on
the person of almost every man. The
hotels and restaurants were crowded
at the breakfast hour.
A simple recognition was all that was
INDUCED in between former friends.
The capital question had brought about
a change n the minds OF many. A
former friend of one town had switched
and was outspoken in favor of King
fisher or Guthrie against Oklahoma
City.
The House was called to order at ten
o'clock, but Speaker Daniels was absent.
The Education bill was taken up and
considered and after two hours of rou.
tine work the House adjourned until two
o'clock.
Speaker Daniels was found Frustrated
from the excitement of Thursday.
against the advice of his physician
The words he uttered were: Il have
stood by Oklahoma City as long as l
think can. signed the bill under
misrepresentation. l have visited the
Governor with Senator Linn and Mr. w.
z. Thompson, of the Daily News, and
told him that signed it under misap-
prehension-"
Here it was suggested that the Speaker
send communication to the House
stating these facts. He wrote such a
communication and wrote resolution,
which he desired to be introduced, stat
ing that as the Speaker had signed the
Capital bill under a mistake that bill
should be recalled from the Senate.
In the House Mr. farrell said that as
the lobby was crowded with armed men
he wished the expression Of the House
as to whether their presence was desir-
able, and offered motion that the
House be cleared of all except members
and newspaper men. This was voted
down.

The Potato Crop n Failure and One Mill

LONDON, Sept SJ.-One million human
beings in Ireland are in imminent peril
of starvation-suchi is the plain fact, ir-
respective of any political question. as
to the threatened famine in Ireland.
At least half the people of Ireland are
occapiers of small agricultural holdings.
Along the bleak western shore, where
the fury which Atlantic gales have
gathered in 5000 miles OF uninter-
rupted sweep across the ocean. falls
with irresistible force, chilling the sol.
with excessive rains and preventing the
suns warmth from reaching the strug-
Cling vegetation. the potato is the only
crop possible. Stock raising is out OF
the question; there is no outside labor
TO bring in money, and when the potato
fails the cotter goes hungry. In these
western districts the, potato is a com.
plete and utter failure. Tho pinch OF
want is already felt With colo weather
it will become more and moro acute,

Our Commerce in the Senate.

1t is evident, says the Chicago Journal
of Commerce, that If American commerce
on the high seas is ever again made re-
spectacle it will be due to the efforts of
legislators who favor protection to home
industries and not to the free traders.
Recently, when the Senate at Washing
ton was debating the two b lis reported
from the Committee on Commerce to
place the American merchant marine
engaged in the foreign trade upon an
equality with that OF other nations, and
to provide for ocean mail service be-
tween the United States and fore; On
ports, and to promote commerce., Senator
FRYE (protectioniSt), of Maine, spoke as
to both bills. The American carrying
trade, he argued. was dead for want of
protection 1t was the only great
American industry of which this could
be said. Six millions a year would re-
vive the dead body of the American
merchant marine and keep it on the
ocean. In reply, Senator Vest (free
t:ader), of Missouri, said that he had
never, since he had been a member of
the Senate. been able to support bill
giving q subsidy for any purpose, nor
did he propose to do so now. And so it
goes The party Of protection and prog
ress is generally right always at war
with wrong. and ever ready to aid and
support whatever will promote the best
interests of the Nation.

They Have Decided to Take Part in

CHARLESTON, s. G., Aug 25.-The Till
NANTES had meeting Of their central COM
mittee tonight and decided to take part in
the democratic primary elections next week
to elect delegates to the nominating conven-
tion, to be held Sept 5. They say that they
lost many votes at the last primary of dem
ocrats, who would not vote with them be-
cause they were opposed to Tillman, but
now that Tillman's nomination is assured,
these sorehead democrats will come out
and vote to help break up the county ring.
Tickets will be put out in every ward and
Chairman John D. Murphy and Deputy
Chairman John b. Reeves seem oonfidens
that they will carry the democratic county
convention and elect Tillman delegations
to Columbia and Tillman county officers.
COUNTING UNMATCHED CHICKENS
So great is their enthusiasm that some Of
the Tillman candidates for county offices
are already looking around for their Official
bondsmen. In the last convention the Till
NANTES had 30 out of 102 delegates, having
carried the Sixth and Seventh wards. In
the coming convention they say they will
carry the Fourth ward, 20 delegates, and
the Sixth, Seventh and Eighth wards,
80 delegates, giving them majority
in the convention. The straightouts, on
the other hand, expect to carry every ward
in the city and all the country precincts
