& w. a day or two. The hunt
w. had been pronounced a
big success, despite the fact of Perry's
defection-he had not even joined them
at luncheon-and it was agreed that il
should be repeated the first bright day
after muster. That ceremony came of
on Monday with due pompand formality
and much rigidity of inspection on the
part of the post commander. It was
watched with interest by the ladies, and
Mrs. Belknap even proposed that when
visited they should go along. Dana had
been her devotee ever since the day OF
the hunt, and announced his willingness
to carry her suggestion to the colonel
but Belknap declined. She wanted few
words with Perry. and did not know
how to effect her purpose. When he
stopped and spoke to her after parade on
Saturday evening and would have made
peace, she thought to complete her ap'
parent conquest by show of womanly
displeasure at his conduct, and an as.
surance that, thanks to Mr.. Dana, the
day had been delightful and his failure
to accompany her had been of no conse.
quence at all. The utterly unexpected
way in which he took it was simply 9

So far from being piqued and jealous
and huffy, as she expected, Mr.. Perry
justified the oft expressed opinion of hel
,sisterhood to the effect that "men were
simply past all comprehension" by
frightening up instantly and expressing
such relief at her information that for q
moment she was too dazed to speak. By
that time he had pleasantly said good
night and vanished: nor had he been
near her since, except to bow and look
pleased when she walked by with Dana.

Did He Leave Town?

Theodore Hennings. who for three
years has been employed in Frazer &
Shepherds planning mill, and who lived
at 529 Second avenue south, is said to
have suddenly left his wife and chill
dren, and for three weeks nothing has
been heard of him. 1t is claimed that
Theodore had been playing the role of
a single man will" a young woman who
lived out in the Eighth ward. and she
called upon him at his home. There
she learned that he was married and
had two children. There was, it is said,
a stormy scene between the wife and
the young lady on the one side. with
Theodore on the other. When the
storm somewhat subsidized, Theodore
left the house, and his wife has not
seen anything of him since. 1t is just
possible that the matter may get into
the courts in the sh ape of divorce suit.

The weakness Of wheat was the feature
this morning, and was more apparent be-
cause of the failure of yesterday effort to

haps, opened new ones. The tendency was
to work in some deferred months, though

such samples were worked off quite readily

Iron Trade Outlook.

iron Age.
There has been notable revulsion Of
feeling in financial and commercial cir
Giles during the past few weeks which
augurs we'll for recovery of the iron
trade. AS yet professional operators
alone have begun to act on the bull side
of the markets, but there are lndlca-
tiOns that the general public is begin
ming to be attracted by chances for in
vestment and speculation. Sentiment
so largely sways great movements or
this character that constant and close
study of the indications of speculative
revival is necessary to detect the direc-
ton of the current. The time required
to carry out projects involving the pur.
chase of large quantities of iron and steel
is very short now as compared to what
it was ten or fifteen years since: When
once the construction of great railroad
is determined upon, it is presumably
carried out in All incredibly short per-
iod. The building of the Manitoba road
is striking example. 1t is probable
that more time is employed to mature
and finance an undertaking than that
needed for the actual work OF construc-
ton.
While relatively little has been done
during the last two years In extending
our railroad mileage, good deal OF
work has been carried on quietly in per-
fecting plans for extensions. They have
reached point where the only obstacle
to the giving out of contracts is the
floating of bonds and stock. That has
been, generally speaking, very diff
cult matter. Capitalists and bankers
have been busy over reorganization
schemes. They have had very little
disposition to entertain, and little OPP
portunities to recommend to their clients
new ventures, however promising.
But matters may take a very diff
ferent aspect as soon as the invest
ing public generally has had even
a brief period of successful opera
lions, the majority generally act
ing on a rising market. They will be
found quick to change their attitude OF
indifference to one of activity. Then
the amount of preparatory work done
during the past two years would soon
tell, and would tend to lend an impetus
to the movement. Changes of this kind
occur very rapidly and influence the
iron trade more quickly now than they
formerly did for the very reason to
which we have alluded. The mechan-
ical work of construction is now carried
out under such high pressure and SO
quickly that acquisitions for supplies
follow one another in very rapid sue
cession. In other words, the transition
from dullness to rushing activity in the
demand for constructive material is
likely to be surprisingly short when 1t
does come. That contingency seems to
be nearer than the majority are willing
to admit.
