Good in Hardware.

The spring trade is opening very
finely indeed, and ouI orders are very
much in excess of what they were last
wear at this time. The outlook for the
future is exceedingly hopeful. There
is limited territory in Dakota where
the crops were cut off last year where
business is very dull. Still, even in
those sections the merchants are hope
full. and if the farmers get good crop
this year business will be all right. |
understand some moisture has fallen
there, and at this time the outlook for
crop is good. Collections are rather
light Just now, but there's good deal
of produce in the country to sell. and
when that is moved, after the spring
crops are in, think collections will be
better. On the whole, collections have
been very good during the past year.

NEW YoBK, March 23.-About 2:30
o'clock the jury in the Flack divorce
conspiracy case came into court
and announced that they had found
all three of the defendants guilty
Sheriff Flack, his son William and
Joseph Meeks. A sensation was cre-
ated at midnight by the report
that reporter had been found in
the room with the jury in the Flack
conspiracy case. He was DilW0rth
Choate, of the New York World, and
admitted that he had concealed himself
behind the curtains. The defense de-
Barrett said the law did not provide a
punishment. Choate was compelled to
give up his notes, and Judge Barrett,
after expressing his abomination of the
act, asked Choate to say that he would
not publish what he had heard.
Choate declined to make the
promise, and asked counsel. The
Judge said he needed no counsel.
He was allowed to go, and the jury was
sent pack to deliberate. When the ver
dict was returned the judge said that
as it was Sunday, all he could now do
was to accept it. The defendants would
remain under bail of $1,000 each. The
Jury stood three for conviction, two for
acquittal and two blank on the first bal
lot. On the second ballot all agreed.
The penalty for the 0ffense of which
the prisoners are convicted is one years
Imprisonment or fine of $500 or both.
1t is thought the recommendation to
mercy will reduce the punishment to
fine only. The court was adjourned
until 10 O'clock Monday. The defense
will probably move to set aside the YER
dict on the ground that the presence oil
the reporter violated the proceedings.

OVER A PRECIPlCE.
Peculiar Wedding Journey of a
Couple of Nutmeggers.


HARTFORD. Conn.,. March pa we'd
ding journey was begun under peculiar
circumstances near here Friday. John
Burrows. the groom, owns farm on the
slope of Old TalcOtt Mountain. Belle
Andrews, the bride. kept house for her
father in his little home On the noun
tain top. Friday they were married at
the home of the bride. They had ar
ranged to take short bridal trip.
There is a little railway station at the
foot of the mountain, mile or so away.
This they resolved to reach by coasting
down the mountain on handSled.
Their preparations were quickly
made. the last farewells were said,
a kindly hand gave the parting
push, and. followed by a shower
of rice and the best wishes of the we'd
ding guests. they sped down the steep
incline. All went we'll until about half
the descent had been accomplished.
Then John suddenly saw ahead an OK
team toiling slowly up the road. The
road was narrow. On one side lowered
an oyerhanging mass of rock, on the
other size was the brink of precipice
forty feet in height. There was little
time to think. The sled was travelling
at lightning speed and the driver of the
oxen seemed not to see it. John hur-
riedly whispered word Of courage to
his frightened and ciinging bride, and,
Just before meeting the approaching
team, suddenly turned the coarse of the
sled and they went flying over the
precipice. The young farmer had cal
culated well. The landing was made in
several feet of yielding snow, and no
serious harm resulted. Friends from
above hurried to the rescue, and the
pair, together with their carpet-bags.
were dug out and once more started on
their Journey. This time the station
was reached safely and the couple con-
tinued their journey in high spirits.

Independent of the reasons mentioned,
there are strong forces in operation
which must conduce to the general
prosperity of the city. The substitution
of electric service for the presens
street railway system, and the extern
sion of new lines into the suburban dis
tricts, are enterprises which carry with
them the investment of large capital by
other parties in the development of the
districts thus opened to rapid transit.
Tine Importance of this city as a trade
center, the wide field covered in it's
merchandise distribution, the facilities
for successful competition with larger
and older markets afforded by the Vari.
Gus competing railroad systems CENTER
ing here, and tine easy access to raw
material, are all factors which, if prop
erly and persistently presented by we'll
directed organized effort, will attract
ample capital to manufacturing invest
mentS. The position of the city is now
50 well assured and its business estabs
lished on so sound basis that progress
is almost inevitable, but the larger in,
terests of the city cannot be subserved
by the growth of its jobbing business
only. Manufacturing interests of mag
nitude are demanded. and in this mat
ter the city has its future in its own
hands. j. j. CoRCoRAN

HOW IS SPRING TRADE
st. Paul Jobbers Temporarily
Join the Globes Editorial
Staff,
And Tell the Status and the
Wherefore of the Spring
Outlook.
A Comprehensive Review Of
the Situation from the
Dun Agency.
The Condition satisfactory
and the Prospect Very
Encouraging.

Notwithstanding number of adverse
conditions. among which are the crop
failure in portions of the Dakotas ana
the low price of the Minnesota farmers
products, the jobbing interests of st.
Paul come right to the front this spring
with larger, safer and better trade
than ever. AS one of the brightest
young wholesale men remarked to a
GLOBE representative yesterday, "The
era of recuperation is about over. and
we may now expect an era of produc-
ton and active business" Both
wholesale and retail merchants
have adopted more conservative
methods of doing business and
the good results of this policy are al
ready apparent. Country merchants
are buying only for present needs, and
with good crop the fall trade by the
jobbers of st. Paul will be more exten-
sive than it has ever been before.
With view of placing before its
readers resume of the business
outlook from a jobber's point of
view, the GLOBE has called to Its and.
editorialIy, number of the leading
wholesale merchants of the city, who
tell some very interesting facts in their
communications printed below:

FLOODS ARE IMMINENT.
Pennsylvania and Ohio Streams
Bank Full and iising.

PTrTsBURG, Pa, March 22.-From all
indications a flood of serious proper
tions threatens this section. A warm
rain set in late last night, and has con-
tinued ever since. The mountains were
covered with several feet of snow, and
this melting has swollen all the small
streams until they are out of their
banks. Dispatches from all points
along the Allegheny, Youghiogheny
and MonOngahela rivers report the
water rising rapidly. At the head
waters of the Monongahela the
water is higher than ever krown
before, and it is still on
fast creeping up. Farm lands along
the streams are already under water
ana great alarm is felt Reports from
about dozen points in the mountains
of West Virginia show that all the
streams are hank-full and still rising,
with rain falling everywhere. The dis
patches say the indications for disas-
trous floods tonight and tomorrow
were never better, and there is good
deal of apprehension along the TygartS
valley rivers. the Cheat and the West
Fork of the Monongahela. Everything
is ahoat. At Weston, Lewis county.
w. Va. on the west fork, the river is
twenty feet deep and still rising, and
there are reports of great damage
higher up the stream. There is twelve
feet at Rowlesburg, on the Cheat. eigh-
teen feet at Morgantown on the Monon-
gahela, aud at Phillip, on the Tygart
valley. the river is very high and
still rising at the rate of a foot per
hour. In this city, the marks at IL
O'Clock registered twenty feet, and ris-
ing fast. Some think the water will
reach as high a point as in 1884, but
conservative river men do not look for
more than from 26 to % feet. The
danger line here is % feet, and a rise
of 8 to feet more will inundate the
lower portions of the South side and
Allegheny City. and cause suspension
of work in the mills along the rivers by
reason of the flooding of the furnace
pits. People living in the lower dis
tricts are preparing to vacate their
houses in the event of the flood reach
ing them. So far no serious damage has
been reported, ana, while the water will
undoubtedly reach very high stage.
at this time, 10 greater damage than
the flooding of the low lands is appre-
hended. The rain still continues, with
no sign of abatement.

The Drug View.

The volume of trade since the advent
of the new year has been surprisingly
large, showing large increase over any
previous year. Collections have kept
pace with the increase, and are salts
factory especially from Dakota, where
the failure of crops in many sections
would have tendency to retard them.
The conservative policy pursued for the
past two years, both by jobber and re-
taller, is showing beneficial results.
The outlook all along the line is quite
cheerful, the conditions favoring early
seeding of the crop are good, with
little more moisture it could not be im-
proved upon. Give Minnesota and Da-
kota an average crop and 1890 will close
with the largest volume or business
ever done by the Twin Cilies.

The Grocery Trade.

We are well satisfied with our trade
so far. Business in the last two or three
years has been done in such a conserva-
tive manner that matters have got OH
great deal better basis. Values in our
line have gotten down so far that they
can't go much lower. 1t looks now as
though it were good time to buy, and l
think that conservative merchants feel
that way and will purchase heav-
lily this spring. The era of re-
cuperation is now pretty well through
with. and that of production and more
active business at hand. There are
sections where the merchants will have
to sail close to the wind until another
crop has been harvested, as they have
done for the last two years. Our trade
this year has increased over all previous
years, and we are disposed TO take a
very sanguine view of affairs. Collec-
tions are good with us. They are not
good for houses that do not manage
their business in conservative way.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 22.--Dr. j..
NJ. Whitney, of Honolulu, who arrived
here on the steamer Australia yester-
day, states that Sister Rose Gertru 'e,
the English girl who was anxious to
nurse lepers at Molokai, will not be-
come an exile in the leper settlement,
and perhaps die there. as she antlcl-
pated. The settlement of M0lokal IS IN
charge of Sisters of the Sacred Heart,
who are maintained there by the Ha-
waiian government, and as Sister Rose
Gertrude belongs to another order-the
Dominican Sisters-she could not be ad.
mitted. She IS, therefore, at tine kalili
receiving station for lepers, or those
who are supposed to have contracted
the disease. There they are cared for
until it can be determined what their
ailment really is. DR.. Whitney stated
that she is very comfortable at kallll
and not isolated, though she is disap-
pointed in her expectations.
