A Coon Story.

lumber hands at Hollon & AIabee's saw mill
on Red river killed veteran coon, which
had evidently seen many years. The old

the same vicinity the men felled q very
large cottonwood, and n cutting it up at
seventy feet from the ground found in a
hollow an old steel trap with the skeleton
of a coon's foot clinched in its laws. and
they feel certain that the trap was carried
there by the three-legged coon which they
mad killed. The trap probably belonged to
beaver trappers, who frequent the river in

New YORK, June 1.-The bearish feeling
. on Wall street was very pronounced this
morning. The impression is gaining ground
that il is not over its troubles yet. Several
liquidations were reported as i result of
Paris settlements and vaguely uneasy
feeling about the future seemed to pre-
vail. The amount of gold which
Russia will withdraw during the next
month or so is according to late cables now
estimated at ,, 900 900 pounds. The Bank of
England to-day received 300, 600 pounds gold.
London sold 81 Paul. Union Pacific and
Louisville and Nashville quite heavily at the
opening of the market and there was very
feverish and unsettled feeling. Prices
quickly fell off from 10 points.
Posted rates for sterling exchange
were advanced and the Offering of bills
were light. Bankers generally expect that
a good deal of gold will 60 out this week;
an engagement of s. 100000 for tomorrow
was reported
A significant change will be noted in
quotations for time money For
sixty days to four months the
rate on best collateral is , per cent
where the principal is PAYABLE in any other
form of currency than gold.
The publication of 4 very beaTish article
on Union Pacific yesterday affected prices
of that stock this morning quite noticeably.
The article contained little which was not
well known before. Its influence arose
from the fact that it gave voice to what was
in everybody's mind.

A CHEERING OUTLOOK.

There is cheering outlook for
the coming year. The statements
made by the national banks of tho
country in response to the recent
call of the comptroller of the cur
rency are highly reassuring. The
stock panic in Wall street month
ago created some alarm, and as a
consequence the banks prepared
for contingency that did not oc-
cur and their vaults are full of
cash. The tendency is now toward
easier money in all the financial
centres. Tho demand for a larger
circulating medium per capita will
be continued and the contemplated
legislation will be adapted to the
development of business and tho
increase OF population.
The general business conditions
are also healthy. The commercial
agencies report that trade through
out the country is somewhat above
the average. The railroad earn
ings for December show a gain Of
about one per cent. over those of
the samo period a year ago. La
Dor has never been more fully en-.
ployed than i'll the latter part Of
1890, and the country enters upon
1891 under conditions that inspire
confidence and bespeak success for
every prudent enterprise.

DUNN's REVIEW OF TRADE
8THE New YEAR OPENS WITH
r SATISFACTORY BUSINESS.

NEW YORK, Jan. Or. G.
Dnpn i&NCompany's weekly review
Of trade says: The new year opens
fencoaFagingly. January settle
Ments hive passed with less dis
turbancein trade than was expect
seds and the demand for goods
winch nov appe ars is,on the whole,
considerably larger than that of a
year ago. The financial anxieties,
which haze occupied SO much at
tention fT weeks past are almost
removed, and a healthy and Wig
orous tradeof a great and rapidly
growing nation begins to exert it's
natural influence.
It has beennoteworthy through,
ont recent lfnsncial troubles, that
the Western tenters of trade have
been comparatively free from dis
turbance orapprehension, and now
the energy \and growth Of the
West have their. effect in larger
trade and4stf6nger confidence in
Eastern commercial ccnters.
In the South We find improving
business. III. consequence, Eastern
centers show more activity.
The building trade at Philadel
phia is disturbed by the demand
ofthe bricklayers for shorter hours
and of carpenters for larger wages
bntsat Pittsburg somewhat more
activity is seen in iron, though
glass is rather dnll,and some fac.
tories temporarily closed.
The iron tradeis stiffened by a
larger decrease III production. -
The demand for bar does not i'm.
prove, however, orders for plates
are somewhat scarce, aud trade in

but in pipes excellent. The mar
