THE COUNTRY'S TRADE.
Weekly Review as Gathered by K. g..
Dun & Co.'S Mercantile Agency.
A Healthy Condition and Favorable OOtIoOk
Is Reported from All sections-The
Week Failures.

NEW YORK, Sept. 26.-R. G. Dun Il
CO.. Weekly Review of Trade says the
liquidation in nearly all kinds of spscu-
lation comes to disappointment Of many
in connection with the largely increased
supplies of money and provided way for
heaIty trade in all Legitimate
branches, with other prices there ap-
pears desired improvement in exports
of products and decrease for the past
three weeks is now only Al per cent
Compared with last year, imports ara
much enlarged by the efforts to get goods
into the country before the new tariff
goes into effect, but the current
accounts of such increase are
exaggerated. The value of all imports
for three weeks has been but 1871 per
cent above last years record. Cosid-
cradle increase appears in woolens,
linens, silk and other dry goods, but
there is fair prospect that merchandise
exports will out value imports for the
month. Grain does not move
freely as yet. but exports of cotton ex-
coed last year materially, and provisions
move in large quantities. Reports from
other cities show a remarkable activity
in all branches of legitimate trade. The
excess of bank clearings over those of the
corresponding week last year in
all cities outside of New York
rises to Is per cent. for the month thus
far, and at western and southern points
the gain averages about 25 per cent.
Chicago notes heavy decline in grain
receipts, compared with last year, but
q large increase III dressed beef, lard,
hides and wool, and q decline in butter
and cheese. Dry goods, clothing and
boots and shoes trades exceed last years,
with satisfactory collections. Kansas
City reports a steady trade, and Savan-
nah notes general activity with firm
prices for staples, though money Is
very active at most points and rather
stringent at many. The volume of
business does not seem to be
anywhere curtailed Thereby, and reports
as to collections are much more favor
able than usual. Great industries, as
reports already cited show, are decidedly
active, and wool manufactures having
especially improved with much moro
satisfactory orders. Cotton manufacture
is sustained by large demand for goods.
and in numerous minor industries.
The expected change of duties is said to
be basis of greater activity.
Business failures during the last seven
days number 219, as compared with 100
last week; for the corresponding week of
last year the figures were 1872.

AT iipperary.
! DUBLIN, Sept. 26.-The streets of Tip
perary were thronged with people until
late hour last night discussing the ex-
citing events of the day. As little pro-
gress had been made toward disposition
of the cases against the arrested Nation
alists, and as the general impression
created by the court ruling was not one
plimentary to the tribunal as a sense
of fairness. there was much speculation
as to what to-day would bring forth.
Leading Nationalist held prolonged con-
sultation in the evening. A further at
tempt to bring Sergeant Kennedy OF the
| police force to account for some of the
clubbing in trout of the court house yes
terday will be made.
The sensa fion in Tipperav this morning
is much more tranquil than yesterday.
The streets are still thronged with peo-
pie, who seem TO be laboriug under
SUPPRESSED EXCITEMENT,
but there has been no collision with the
police. The authorities are taking spe-
cial pIecaution to guard against the pos
sibility of an outbreak. A detachment
of soldiers is assisting the police in main
tanning order. The space in front of the
courthouse is held by strong guard,
and both soldiers and police are patrol
ing the streets.
The session of court for the trial of the
conspiracy case was of short duration
this morning. When the nour of OPEN
ing came the presiding magistrate an
nounced that it would be impossible to
go on with the cases this morning, as the
judge of the county court required the
building; it would be necessary there
fore, TO
ADJOURN FURTHER PROCEEDINGS
until this afternoon. Before the magis-
trete could declare court adjourned Tim
Healy sprang to his feet and in the name
of the defendants offered an earnest pro-
test against 1t for the reason given. 1t
was not right, he urged, that magistrates
in such cases should suit their actions to
the convenience of a county court judge.
The magistrate of that tribunal should
be one loyal and insisting on the letter OF
his rights in the premises. The men had
been brought to Tipperary from their
homes for trial. They had right to ex
poet that trial would be expedited IS
much as possible. 1t was becoming more
and more manifest, Healy declared, that
the defendants were being treated with
EVERY DIsCoURTEsY
the authorities could devise. Healy's
protest was uuavailing. As soon as he
resumed his seat court was adjourned
till in the afternoon.

A RUN ON A BANK.
The Commercial Bank of Guthrie, o. T., Had a
Close Call, Pu: Net all
d mands.
Breciel to the Gazette,

srecial to the Gazette.
GUTHRIE, o. T., Sept. 26.-The
heaviest run ever made on a financial
institution in this territory, and one that
would have been withstood by but few
similar banks in the country, was made
day. Just before closing hours yesterday
slight run was made by depositors, and
about $40 200 drawn out, but when the
hour of opening arrived this morning
thousands of people were gathered
around the entrance and in the street +,
awaiting the doors to be thrown open.
Promptly at 9 O'Clock the bank
opened and a grand rush
was made. which lasted until
about noon, at which time more than
$50. 900 had been paid out. At several
times the officials of the bank became
frightened, Notwithstanding kilograms
were pouring in from Kansas City and
Kansas towns profering assistance with
out limit. 1t looked as though it would
be necessary to close the door until after
the arrival Of the train from the north,
on which there was funds for them.
Finally the tide turned, and the money
drawn out began to return with a sub
stantial increase in volume. The other
banks Of the city, which in the morning
had refused assistance, at noon proffered
any amounts necessary to tide over the
run. At the close of business every dol
lar demanded had been paid and there
was money left. The Commercial bank
had been considered aud has proved
itself to be one of the strongest in the
Territory, and to-day's tiding over I'M
expected difficulties adds largely to its
popularity among the business element
of the city.

Indiscriminate Work of Troops

LONDON, Sept. 26.-The Chronicle s

ported that trrops in Goa are commit
ting the widest excuses and shooting

lar leaders have been arrested and shot
in their residences. The residences of
others are besleged and lively fusilade
proceeded between the besiegers and the

mored the governor-general is hiding in

and children who fled thither for protec-
ton have been bayoneted by the palace
guards. Several dynamite bombs have
been thrown into the palace by band
of citizens. The governor iustif1es the
acts of the troops on the ground that
revolution has been declared. 1t is esti-
mated that 800 people were killed and
wounded in two days fighting, and
meetings of Goanez have been held in
Bombay to denounce the government of
Goa and to ask for British annexation.

Dragged to Death.

Iowa PARK, TEX, Sept. 26.-Yester-
day morning Mr.. W. B. Flippin hitched
up in his cart and started to bring his
children to town to school. The horse
became frightened, or at least started to
run, and the bitt having broken became
unmanageable. The children fell out of
the cart and were not hurt, but Mr..
Flippin himself became entangled in the
lines and was dragged long distance.
When he was picked up he was insensi-
Bile and lived only few minutes. The
deceased was delegate to the late con-
vention of the Farmers Alliance at Dali

one of our most enterprisIng and success

family of children to mourn a. well as

time unfortunate. There will be no in-
vestigation of the why and wherefore of
the collision. No official coguizance will
be taken of 1t. No one will demand that
the injured and outraged proboes be put
IN evidence; but nevertheless, Mr.. Ding
ley nose and Mr.. Kilgore's boI-toed
shoe will become historic.
The whole incident is not only highly
suggestive of the wrathful rebellion
against Reed, but it is q neat bit OF
retributive justice. Had the members of
the majority been in their seats, as they
should have been, the affair would not
have happened; there would have been
no occasion TO lock the doors and no
sassing match would have occurred be-
tween the speaker and angry members.
Kilgore s kick may be called great
forensic triumph, and by comparison
with those which the Democratic party
has accomplished this session il stands
up in the field of fame like tall pillar
The present trouble in the house arises
from two causes; first an effort to fight
the factional battle of an alleged Repub-
lcan candidate for congress, who was
defeated III consequence of the detection
or the Republican votes; aud next, be-
cause of the continued absence of a large
number of Republicans. In attempting
to make up the deficiencies of his own
party by dragging IN the other side, by
the lockingsof doors, and by an auto
cratic resort to all the extreme of parlIa-
mentary privileges, Reed is only playing
into the hands of the enemy. 1t will re-
quire little more ugly feeling to precipi-
tate some day on the floor of the house
scenes that will forever disgrace the
country-if the recent occurrences have
not already done so-and the Republican
party has a clear duty to perform which
it ought to do with courage and fidelity,
but it will not do it.
