DUN'S REPORT.

Trade Somewhat Better. hut Financial Cn-
certainty stin . Disturbing Feature
Fallures.
NEW YORK, Dec 20-R. G. Dun &
Cas- Weekly Review of Trade says:
Business continues large for the
season, but there is perceptibly less
feeling of confidence. The causes ap-
pear to be: First prospect Of important
monetary legislation, the effects OF
which are not clearly foreseen; second,
frequent failures and greater difficulties
in making collections; and third, less
satisfactory collections in some large
branches of industry. Probably more
people are affected, as business
undertakings often show, by un-
certainty about financial legislation
and its effects than by any other
cause. Though the rate for money on
call is lower than a week ago and money
is easier at Boston and Philadel phia,
there is still stringency at most points
throughout the country. Complaints of
slow collections have rarely been more
general, and in many cases settlements
can only be made with notes or renew
ais But in all quarters there is hope
that after January l things may i'm
prove in this respect, if legislative
prospects do not meanwhile cause
greater shrinkage Of credits and cur
tailment of purchases
Foreign influences are not now dis
turbing. Exports OF products for the
two weeks of Decem Der from New York
show a gain of 8 per cent over last year,
and the total of last December was
hardly ever surpassed Though i'm
ports continue heavy they are greatly
exceeded by exports at present Ex-
ports Of cotton thus far this month ex-
ceed last years and also Of provisions
but there is heavy decrease in grain
caused by speculative prices here. Trade
at the South is fair at most points
The business failures occurring
throughout the country during the last
seven days number 404 as compared
with S74 last week. For the corre-
spending week of last year the figures
were $40

POISON IN COFFEE.
Mrs. Levy and Her Son Jacob
Charged With Putting 1t There.
ENOUGH TO KILL, BUT 1T DID NOT,
And the Eight Persons Who Drank 1t Only
Became Very Sick.
THE DAYS GRIsT OF THE JUSTICE MILL

Mrs. -Eutice Levy and her son Jacob
Levy, were placed on trial before Judge
Magee yesterday on nine indictments for
felonious assault. The offenses charged
consisted of the poisoning of nine persons.
Mrs. Levy conducted a secondhand cloth
ing store on Penn avenue, and next door to
her was the rival establishment of William
Smith and Jacob Kablinsky. The latter
also kept a boarding house. Between the
Levys, and the Smiths and the Kablinsky's
there was considerable i'll feeling, and sew
eral suits before Aldermen resulted. Last
August the members of the Smith and Ka-
blinsky families aud their boarders were
made very i'll one morning by drinking some
coffee None of them died, however, and an
examination showed the coffee to have been
poisoned. Suspicion fell on the Levys and
they were arrested.
A number of witnesses testified yesterday
that Mrs. Levy had threatened to poison
the people next door. William Tailor also
testified thatlon the night preceding the
morning on which the family was poisoned,
he caught Mrs. Levy climbing out of the
window of Smiths kitchen. She refused to
say anything when he asked her what she
was doing. Witnesses also testified to
different admissions made by Mrs. Levy
after the poisoning.
Mr. Hand, connected with the firm of
Hunt & Clapp, testified to having analyzed
the coffee. Twenty-nine per cent of half
pint he examined was tartar emetic, and
there was ten times as much of the drug as
has produced death.
The defense denied the charges and
claimed that the allegations were the result
of spite work. Several persons, it was
claimed. had been offered money to testify
against the Levys, to Sc eing things which
did not happen.
The jury in the case is out.
