BUSINESS.
PRESENT CONDITION OF TRADE.
The Cold Weather Has Improved the
Tone Of the Market.


r.. @. Dun & Co.'S Weekly Rerietc Of Trade
says. Important improvement in business is
noted wherever the recent change Of colder
weather has been felt. Elsewhere
unreasonable weather is still
the chief complaint, but everywhere
interruption Of business and manufacturing
by the prevailing sickness is observed and
many factories have been forced ~ close be-
cause so many ofthcir employees were unable
10 work. At or one two Eastern points this
interruption appears to be passing away, but
II is still widespread and serious. To nearly
all kinds of trade it.means not only delay IN
production or dealings, but some shrinkage
In the ability Of great numbers to purchase
products. But in spite of this the volume Of
trade is large.
The cloarings Of banks last week were not
only the largest on record for that part Of
year, but showed an increase over last year
Of II per cent. outside Of New York.
The weekly output of pig iron January
was i,o3S tons, against 90 l5l December
/, and l5i, ,35s a year ago. This implies
slight increase in production last year over
previous estimates, The hesurprising increase
In output has led many to wonder in what
way the enormous quantity now made can
be consumed, and inquiries indicate that
there Is in the aggregate some accumulation
ofstocks. It also appears that the market
for bar iron is somewhat unsettled with a
tendency toward concessions, and plate iron
is less firm. Structural and sheet iron and
nails are steady, but some uncasincss is no
uccd in the market for steel rails. Unless
consumption Of finished products is not
only sustained, but expanded the output
Of pig iron can hardly continue at the pres
ent rate The stagnaton in anthracite coal
is aggravated, but, although the trade is
narrow and limited numbers are reported
idle, the weekly output exceeds the output
u year ago by GDOJO tons, Prices are d..
moraized and bitum nous coal, though
very active, is easier.
The cotton industry is disturbed only by
sickness; demand for goods has slightly i'm.
proved. The heavier wooden goods are seri-
ously depressed by the unreasonable weather
But there is a marked revival in the ira ic
for domestic worsteds and light goods he
lieved to be due to the changes last year in
Treasury rulings, now for the first time iclt
The boot and shoe industry is largely and
the two textile manufactures somewhat dis.
turbed by labor controversies in Eastern
States
Collections are quite generally slow, be-
cause of retarded distribution but uneasness
is reported at only few points. All South
ern reports note active trade The money
markets here and elsewhere, show on the
whole rather more pressure, which the
heavy business in progress and the tardy
collections explain.
Business failures during the last seven
days for the United States, 3 8; for Canada,
81; total 1886; compared with 81 last week.
For the corresponding week last year the
figures were 2Si in the United States and 40
In Canada.

FEMALE TRADE UNIONIsTs.
Some Effect Of the Labor Agitation
London.

Some Effect OF the Labor Agitation in
London.
One Ofthe most remarkable phases in the
present labor agitation in London Is the
success which has attended the propagation
of trade union principles among the female
workers in the East End. The Cigarmakers'
Union is a case in point. The union was the
direct outcome Of the announcement by the
employers of their intention To reduce wages.
At first the women failed to comprehend
the meaning of the suggested union, but
when it was fully borne in upon their minds,
they joined in large numbers.
Within the last two months GOO women
have given in their names, and il is singular
that, with the establishment of the society.
wages have been much above the normal
figure, a competent girl earning 2 shilling
OF 2: shllings week. There are other so
cietics which, II they cannot all proclaim
the success of the Cigarmakers' Union, have
a considerable number of new members.
Prominent among these is the organization
Of the matchmakers, which is rapidly grow
ing in strength and importance Some of the
voluntary workers who have been most
prominent in establishing these unions
complain Of the apathy of the regular trade
unionist officers.

SIX INDIArgs HANGED.
Wholesale Execution at Fort Smith-The
Murderers and Their Crimes,

murderors ana lheir crimes.
An extraordinary execution took place at
Fort Smith, Ark, when six Indians ex-
pi'ted their crimes on the scafiold.
Nine men were to have been hanged, but
the sentence of one was commuted to i'm
prsonment for life by President Harrison.
George Tober and Charles Bullard the two
negro murders, have been respited until the
Goth inst They received the respite with
bad grace, saying that if they are to be
hanged they would prefer going with the
rest.
For the past two weeks the hangman,
George Maledon. has been preparing for this
work, and the ropes were stretched daily
with dummies. The trap was 81 arranged
that all the men were dropped through at
the same time. Following is a history Of
the crime, for which the men suffered the
death penalty:
The murder for which Austin paid so
dearly was one Of most unparalleled ma
turc, atrocious and uuprovokcd. On May
%, os3, IN the town Of Iishomingo, Chick.
asaw Nation, hc killed Thomas Elliot, a
white man, under the following circum-
stances: Elliott had only been IN the Indian
country two months and was a stranger to
Austin. Jonas Pearson, half brother Of
Austin, was under the influence of liquor
on the day ofthe murder. aud Elliot accused
him Of having stolen some whiskey from
him. The two men were sitting In the
front porch OF a store talking, Pearson be.
ing armed. Austin approached them and
toOok Pearson's pistol from him. The two
walked OIL a short distance, conycrsed few
minutes in the Indian language and then
Austin turned and, approaching f. lott,
shot him in the breast without a word OF
warming. Elliott fell from the box on
which he was sitting when the murderer
shot him second time in the body Then
he walked up close to his PROSTATE and dy-
ing victim an ! shot him in the forehead.
John Billy, Thomas Willis and Madison
James were all mH.blooded Choctaws and
were convicted jointly of the mu der of u
white man whose name was supposed to be
A. b. Williams.
Sam Coin and Jmmon Burris, full-blool-
ed Choc,aws were tried in october last. Jim
Coin also being in the case, but he was nc.
quilted, while the Others were found guilty.
The victim of these men was Houston Joyce,
Of Franklin, Texas.
Jefferson Jones, full.blooded Choctaw
was convicted on the lith Of October of a
most foul and dastardly murder his victim
being an o'd ran, 90 years of age, named
Henry Wilson. Jefferson was arrested and
acknowledged the whole affair.

THE STAR OF BETHLEHEM.
Prof. Pickering, of the Harvard Universi.
ty, Discredits the Vienna Statement.

Prof. Pickering, of the Harvard Universi.
ty, Discredits the Vienna Statement.
Prof Pickering. of Harvard University,
discredits the Vienna dispatch which stated
that the Star Of Bethlehem is again TO be
visible this year, being its seventh appear.
ance since the birth of Christ.
The Professor says: ~ can scarcely be-
lieve that this story emanated from astrono>
mcrs at Vienna, for had there been the
slightest intimation ofthe appearance Of this
star it would have been cabled to us at once
The report is probably the unauthorized re-
yiyal of an old rumor that the star, erro-
neousy call the "Star ofBethlehem," was TO
make its appearance, but as this statement
has been made several times since Ssi, when
the star was looked for by some astrono-
mers, there is doubtless nothing in It.
"Thc star referred to was the one discover.
Ell by Tycho Brlhc IN 1872, and was named
for him. II appears quite suddenly in the
con'tclation of CassiopUia, and had bril-.
liancy greater than that of any Of the planets
80 much so that it was visible in the day
time. 1t was believed by some that this star
had appeared in the same position 3l2 years
before, or in 1860, and assuming this inter
val Of appearance 10 be correct, it would
have been visible about the time of the
Christian era, and it was thus termed
the star Of Bethlehem. If it re.
turns after 3l2 years the time of
its temperance would have been in 1884,
but nothing has yet been seen of 1t, although
many observers watched for it at that time.
Such phenomenon at this day would have
the highest value to astronomical science,
for 10y the use Of modern instruments obser-
yations could be taken and information
gathered that would be Of the greatest assist
ance in experiments now in progress. There
Is, however, So much doubt IN the matter
that it is of but little use to surmise as to its
appearance"

SNOW BLOCKADE IN THE WEST.
Only Feeble Ticking Connects New
York and Oregon.

The snow blockade IN the West and North
west Is one Of the most complete on record
Not only has travel become an ;mpos-
sibility on the western divisions Of the
Central and Northern Pacific, but the te,e-
graph companies are equal sufferers. and
every through wire is down on both these
roads
Washington and Oregon are shut off from
communication with the entire world, with
the exception of one little zigzag wire that
still ticks feebly between San Franc SEQ and
Portland. When this wire goes down these
two Northwestern States will be further
away from New York than China, So far as
telegraphic communication is concerned, as
the trains are not running and the snow
blockade renders IL impossible for the telc.
graph force to reach the scene Of the break
The Western Union repiircrs are moved up
at q halfdozen points in the West, and
there is little prospect of renewed communi-
cation until the railroads have mastered the
elements.
The snow blockade on the Central Pacific
road is at Emigrant Gap, near the summit
of the Sierras. Eight wcstbound trains were
showed in, and the prospects of the road be-
ing opened are poor, as the snow plows can
not work through the freezing ice and the
force ofshovelers is inadcquatc. There are
1900 men at work, bu, as the snow is seven
feet deep on level, and fatho.nless in the
cuts, the work of clearing the track, while
the snow falls is a tremendous labor.
On the Northern Pacific there is a complete
snow blockade at Sissous, near Mount,
Shasta. Col Fred. Crooker, Of the Southern
Pacific, who was going North, has been
showed ia there for three days in spec al
train.
The Southern Pacific Road has been badly
injured in the Tehachepi Mountains by
washouts, and beyond Los Angeles the
Goods have done much damage. The only
unobstructed road now is the Atlantic and
Pacific but US this depeud' on the South I'll

desert and San Francisco, and on the washed
out southern Pacific between Los Angeles
and San Francisco. travel on that road may
also be delayed at any moment, as it has
been raining heavily in Southern California
for days past, while it is showing in the
North.
The Western Union says that snow is
still falling throughout the West so that the
prospect is by no means encouraging.

ed Edward Gallagher, aged II years; Michael
Gallagher, his brother aged Is, and Mrs
Kate Stackhouse Il married sister, aged %.
Mrs Stackhouse had been up in Johns
town, Pa, and was returning 10 her homo
in Morrellville. As it was quite dark and
the road very lonely one, she stopped at
her parents home. in Cambria City, and got
her two brothers To accompany her, and on
account of the bad condition of the street
they proceeded down the Pennsylvania Rail-
road track, walking on the eastbound track
As the party neared the MOrrellville

compelled them to take the westbound
track, They had been on this track but a
few moments when the New York and Chi
cago Limited, west, running at the rate Of
a. miles an hour dashed upon them.
The two boys were hurled from the track
and instantly killed. Mrs Stackhouse was
thrown in the air and fell on the track in

A MURDERoUs MOTHER,
Bullets for Three Children, Acid for tn
Fourth.


At his residence near Cannon Lake, MINI.
James Mcneil, Jr., arose and went TO the
kitchen TO build the tire. Mrs. Mcneil
slipped out after him, locked the door and
going back into the bedroom, took revol-
yer from the bureau drawer and shot three
of her children. Mr.. Mcneil heard the shots
and tried to go TO the bedroom, but could
not get in. He hurried around the house
and went in the front door, wher he met
his wife coming from the kitchen. She had
chased the oldest child there and made her
take caib ,lic acid, also taking some herself,
The little girl evidently struggled very hard
with her mother AS her face and hands were
covered with the acid.
One child was killed instantly and one
died about ~ o'clock. The little baby, three
weeks old, was shot through both lungs.
but at last reports was still alive. The wo-
man and the little girl to whom she gave
the acid are alive and may live. Mrs. Neil
gives as the reason for the terrible deed that
she was sick and had no hope Of getting
well and wanted To end her sullcrngs at
