REVIEW OF TRADE.
Our Financial Afairs-Condition OF the
Markets


RIG. Dun s. Co.'S Weekly Rerie,c Of Trade
says: A pause in business is usual at the
end of the year. But this year unreasonable
weather and much pressure for money at
the East make the dullness border on de
preston. While prospects for the future
are generally regarded with great confidence,
the present state of trade is
not quite satisfactory and in some
quarters the delay of collections causes
fear of commercial embarrassmcnts This
is more particularly noticeable in the cloths
ing and furnishing trades at Philadelphia,
and In many lines Of business at Cleveland,
Detroit and Milwaukee Sales of dry goods
are also falling of at Chicago, though pay,
ments are reported good, and the clothing
trade there is dull and the shoe trade quiet.
But at Western points, with scarcely an ex>
ception, the open weather and bad condi-
tiOn of country roads are noticed as causes of
unusually slow collections. In other re-
spects, the reports of trade are generally sat
isfactory. The holiday business hae been
large at nearly every point reporting
The weak points of the situation are those
trades which are most affected by two sue
cessiye mild winters. The anthracite coal
trade is stagnant, in the absence Of demand,
and the situation is almost without prece-
dent. More than half of the Reading coal
mines have closed, throwing 5000 miners
out Of work, and it is stated that ~, 90 MIN
crs are working on three.quarters time. The
bitumlnous coal trade is more active, but
lacking cars. No definite relief in the WOODEN
goods business can be expected until pro-
longed cold weather has caused well sus-
tanned demand, and the clothing business in
all parts of the country must necessarily de-
pend to great extent upon the weather. To
greater or less extent many other kinds Of
business are disturbed aud sometimes put to
strain by absence of the demand incident to
the season, and in all quarters the delay OF
collections IS felt,
On the other hand the iron business con.
tinues to prosper. Though sales of pig are
not very large, prices are very firm at Phila.
dclpha and $40 80 is quoted here for No. /.
Sales Of 30 90 tons of steel rails are reported,
with the price steady at s3j East and SO %
at Chicago. Bar iron is firm at cents. and
confidence in the future is in all branches of
the iron and steel business undimin shed
a larger demand Tor copper has enabled the
syndicate TO advance Lake to "A, with sales
of 5000 pounds, but lead is quiet at S3s7,
and tin has been depressed at London by
speculative realizing being quoted at Il
cents here. In speculative markets there
has been but little change, except in corn,
which has dropped a cents.

LATE NEWS CONDENSED.

The mild winter has been a bad thing foi
the anthracite coal miners. At least 1000
men and boys are now idle, and the re.
mainder have gone ON three-quarter time.
If there is no change in the general trade it
will not be long before all the mines will be
shut down completely. Destitution among
the miners commenced with the holiday
season, and there will be great suffering.
Thus far this year the anthracite companies
tons of coal less than last year, That means

miners.

PLANTATIONS pEpoPuLArED.
Georgia Negroes Going to q Promised
Land in Arkansaa.

Great excitement has prevailed during the
past week at Cedartown, Georgia, because
of the wholesale exodus of negroes. Hun
fields to go TO Arkansas. lured by the ex
travagant promises made by railroad emf
grafton agents.
For some time there have been rumors Of
gene al exodus. Little attention was paid
TO these reports until last Monday, when
the citizens OF Cedartown found their
depot crowded with colorei people
waiting to be transported to their
new homes in the Southwest. 1t was learned
that the 80 or more farm laborers who were
collected at the depot were only the pioneers
in the great exodus which will soon depopu-
late Barlow and Polk counties Of their farm
hands.
The emigration scheme has been worked
with great skill, and had been profound
secret until matters had gone too far for
white influence to have any effect. Three
months ago a section of country from above
Cedartown to Statesborough, in Barrow
County, was flooded with circulars and
phamplets, which set forth in glowing terms
the advantages offered colorcl emigrants to
Arkansas The high wages paid, the good
homes which were given away, and the ease
with which living could be made were al
luminously depicted.
After this sort Of literature had been given
time to circulate and have It's effect a new
element IN the organized plan to obtain
workin ymen for Kansas was introduced.
Two negroes, named Spradling, who had
once lived in Polk county suddenly disap.
peared. They stated that they had just re.
turned from Arkansas aud knew all about
the promised land. That there were draw.
backs TO perfect happiness there these two
admitted, but they claimed that wages were
high and work plentiful; that neither man,
woman nor child could possibly suffer want
as long as they had two arms and were will.
ing to use them moderately.
A month or more was given the two Sprad-
lings TO do their share of the work, and then
one Of the master schemers commenced
playing his part, This time the
actor was white man named Henry Terrell.
lie described himself as a large plantation
owner in Arkansas with immense crops
that he was unable to garner for lack OF
hands He made mcst extrayagant promises,
and the result was that many people living
near Ccdartown were awakened Sunday
night by the sound Of wagons passing their
houses. From every direction travellers COM
menced making their way to the depot
and when the sun rose between
15O and 200 Of them were waiting
on the platform Of the depot.
Every effort to make them change their
minds faiei, and now many plantations are
without single laborer and planters can do
nothing. This is said to be but the begin.

FIRE VICTIMS.
BuANED IN A DWELLING HOUSE.
Only Two Awaken Soon Enough 70

cfTARRED REMAINS GATHERED UP IN box.
A calamity not surpassed in the annals Of
the country occurred Sunday morning at
Hurontown, Mich. A family named Gross
consisting of the parents aud eight children.
with a visitor, were consumed in a burning
dwelling. The elder Gross and wife
returned from dance near by at 2 o'clock.
At 2:3O a son Theodore, Jr. returned from
the Huron steam mills, where he is employ
cd. He went into the house and to bed.
Shortly after he was awakened by his broth
er Nicholas, who heard screams coming from
an adjoining room occupied by their three
sisters and three little brothers.
They ran to the partition door and found
the room mass of flames. Smoke and
fire were ascending the stairway, and the
boys escaped by jumping through window.
They reached the ground seriously cut by
glass and in q semi-nude condition. One
attempted 10 enter the house on the ground
floor, where the father, mother and two
children slept, but was driven back by the
flames that enveloped the building. 1t was
impossible for the spectators, who quickly
compelled 10 stand by and hear their
agonzing cries.
In the course of three hours a searching
party went over the ruins and discovered
the charrcd rema ms Of the eleven bodies,
distinguished only by the size of the bones.
They were gathered in sleigh boz and de-
posted in the public hall. The victi rs
were: Theodore Cross, aged 81; his wife,
aged A; Catherine john Toney, Mary,
Lizzie Joseph, Michael, Lenie-all children
Of Mr.. and Mr.. Cross, and
Lena Erbst of Lake Linden, guest.
The ages Of the young people ranged from
two to twenty-five years There Is no re-
liable information rs TO how the fire started
Theodore Gross, Jr., says that II might have
originated from the lamp that he supposed
he extinguished before he went to bed.
There are rumors that the dreadful calamity
occurred through the carelessness of the
parents, who are alleged TO have returned
home intoxicated from the dance.

The Influenza.

The influenza is no new thing, II II is the
fashion. 1t has operated often and extern
syely in Europe and to some extent in the
Americas. In 1911 records show that it pre-
vailed in France in 1898 in Italy, in 1852 and
1877 ii existed throughout Europe, and again
in 1915, Between l7-0 and 1875 it broke out
in Germany and spread over the rest of Eu-
rope and throughout North America and in
the northern half of South America.
In l775 it spread over both Europe
and the Americas again with greater violence
than before. In 1907, 1880 and lS47 it pre-
vailed in Europe, and in 1900 and 1880 in the
colder half of North America In most of its
yisitations heretofore it has LJt been SO
harmless as in this, the mortality in several
being frightful. In no other epidemic,
tho Igh has it spread with such lightning
like rapidity as in this, which fact the quick
and extensive railroad and steamship facili-
ties Of to day are responsible for.
