Dun's Review of Trade,

New YoRK,Aug. Or. G. Dun & Co.'s
weekly review of trade says: The signs
of monetary disturbances which we're no.
ticed in previous reviews we're not mis-
leading. The obvious and only re-
lief is liquidation of money speculations
in stocks, in wheat, corn, oats, cotton,
leather, hides, coffee, wool and specially
in silver bullion, which have locked up
enormous ums In silver alone about
ten millions has been locked up to wait
for higher prices; in grain several times
as much, and in other products many
millions, while the conditions of the mar
ket for securities was indicated by a fall,
averaging about So per share in a single
day on active stocks, when money became
tight. In addition, enormous imports,
intended to anticipate the pending tariff
bill, have virtually locked up for an in
definite time many millions paid for
goods and in duties on them. The volume
of legitimate business throughout the
country continues large, exceeding that
Of last year by 10 per cent outside Of New
York, and a desire to make products
quickly has made prices rise and caused
a greater demand for currency from the
country than usual. During the past
week the treasury has paid out only $751;
OOO more than it has taken in.

Killed by a Wild Train,

DENVER, Aug. 22.-Three men we're
killed and three seriously injured by the
running of a wild stone train in the vicin-
ity of Lyons, COL, this morning. The
train was on down grade and without ap-
parent reason the engineer found he had
lost control of the engine, %whereupon the
whole train started on a wild run down
the mountain side. When the engineer
found he could not control his engine, he
jumped and was killed. The fireman
climbed back over the tender and at
tempted to uncouple the engine but was
unsuccessful and sustained serious in
juries in jumping from the train. Both
brakemen jumped, one being almost in
stantly killed and the other sustaining
injuries from which he cannot recover.
The train continued on its wild career
until a dump was reached, when all the
cars went over and piled up in a promis-
Q mass of ruins. The names of the
killed are: E. Norton, engineer; Fergu-
son, car repairer; w. Gurken, car re-
pairer.

A Narrow EscaDe.

SAULT STE. MARIE, Aug. 21.-The
steamer Maurice Borrower, down bound,
while entering the lock chamber, through
a misunderstanding of the signals, mar
rowly escaped from cutting one of the
main gates of the locks at 7::30 this morn
ing. It seems her engines we're working
slowing ahead when she entered the
chamber, but the officer in charge for
getting that the engines we're in motion,
rang the bells to back, but we're CON
strued by the engineers to go stronger
ahead, and the signals were again re-
peated to work the engine still faster.
The error was not discovered until the
boat commenced to gather increased
Roadway and was rapidly approaching
the lower gate, when advantage was
taken of the speaking tube and the en-
gines were Immediately reversed, and she
was stopped within a few feet Of the
gate. Had the boat not been stopped at
the very instant it was, a huge mass
would have been cut open and the re-
suit would have been something terrible
to witness.

The Second Week of the Strike.

New YORK, Aug. 22.-With the close Of
to-day ends the second week of the strike
Of the employees on the New York Gen.
trail railway. Two weeks ago tonight
the wheels we're stopped and the men
went out. The men who then left their
places with confidence Of reinstatement
npon their own terms are considering the
situation tonight in their local assem-
blies, where they are joined in council by
the members of the executive board.
The leaders are also visiting other assem-
blies not in apywise interested in the
railway strike-fraternal visits for .~relaxa-
ton from the strain of the week. I'm
doubleday it is true the rank and file of
the men feel at present strong in the neal
presence of their leaders. The heads
have been considering their immediate
interests and the men are pleased. They
feel reinforced and more hopeful, but
whether the same is true of the leaders
who have assumed the responsibility and
much of the care before pressing upon
one district assembly, is a matter of
grave doubt. It was rumored that
possibly the next move would be
the ordering out of all mechan-
les along the line of the. Central road.
On this point Webb was questioned.
Anticipating" he said, "some ten days
ago that by allowing the men Employed
in u various shops to remain, I was fur
nishing ammunition to the Knights, I
at once ordered the shops closed and d.
rected that only enough help be retained
to perform the actual necessary repairs
that are required each day. At the pres
ent time we have fully 5000 cars in the
course of construction at West Albany,
and there 1000 men have been laid off. If
the mechanics are ordered to stop work
by the federation we are fully prepared
to meet the emergency, and, as the num-
Der of men would be comparatively small,
their places would be rapidly filed"
Webb said that the New York Central
has now 5000 men under pay and ready
to take the strikers places, and that he
has the names Of as many more whom
be can call on if wanted.

The Raum Investigation.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 21.-The Raum in
vestigation was resumed this morning.
Cooper, who made the charges, made a
brief explanation of his position, after
which Raum took the stand. Witness
denied that any employe of the pension
Office, saw himself, ever owned any stock
10 a refrigerator company, and conse-
quently the charges that the employees
had been promoted because of such own
ership was false. Cooper then demanded
to see the books of the company, but
Raum refused to produce them. He was
willing that members Of the committee
should inspect the stock books of the
company, but not that it should go into
the records. Raum said that Cooper
gave to the press everything he got hold
of, and had made public documents en-
trusted to him for the inspection of the
committee on rules. Cooper insisted on
seeing the books himself, and on the
commissioner refusing him this privi-
lege, gathered up his books and papers
and left the ROOM. The committee then
resumed the investigation on its own
hook.

Fire Destroys Two-Thirds of the Business
Ia Portion of Groton.
ST.. PAUL, August 22.-Groton, S. d.,
special to the Pioneer Press: A fire
started this afternoon in Thompson's
barber shop on the west side of Main
street, and being famed by a stiff breeze
from the southeast soon spread to ad-
joining buildings and threatened the
entire western portion of the
town. Aberdeen, Redfeld, Doland,
and Andover we're telegraphed for assist
ance. There being no rain for a mon tn,
the wooden buildings burned like pow
der. 1t spread SO rapidly that before as
sistance could arrive t%wo-thirds of
the business portion of the west side was
in ashes. The loss will amount to $780,
600, with $65,000 insurance. Some of
the business men have secured tempo
rary locations for buildings on the rail-
road grounds and will begin the erection
of brick buildings upon the old sites at
Onca.
