impose a license on vessels under a for

cree recommends a license tax of

New YORK, July 17.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'s weekly review of trade says: Bus
mess clearly grows somewhat more act
i've, though midsummer dizziness is still
the rule.
At Eastern cities there is noticed
more demand for manufactured goods
with larger sales for materials. At the
West trade is enlivened by the large
yield Of winter wheat already harvested
and by the very bright outlook for the
other crops.
There is a remarkable increase In the
production of pig iron, almost to the
unprecedented figures of last year. The
sudden increase in production is not in
all respects q favorable symptom. No
correspondent improvement in the de-
mand for manufactured products is yet
seen and the stocks unsold at only
part of the furnaces are now received as
amounting to 100000 tons, showing a
very large increase, particularly in coke
iron.
Already there is perceptible weakness
in the market at Philadelphia and some
concessions in prices are noted for pig
iron and for plates, while the market
for structural iron is extremely dull.
Reports from other cities are gener-
ally hopeful. Prospects are considered
brighter at Philadelphia. In spite of
the usual dizziness of the season, an i'm
ing tendency is seen at Buffalo, and
lake shipping revives at Cleveland with
a larger demand than year ago.

ing to comply with the law on weekly
payments, but there 1t no serious
trouble as yet.
About hundred men are out at Vir-
gen, and nearly the same number at
work. The farmers who need coal for
threshing are unable to secure any, as
the company is unable to supply the
local demand. Unless the company and
miners come to satisfactory under,
standing in a short time, there will be a
coal famine here. 1t is reported that
the men at Nilwood will go out.

Special Telegram to the Rsoiste-
WASHINGTON, D. c., July l7.-ine
annual report of Col. Craighill on tne
river improvements in West virginia
has been received at the War Depart
ment. It's most notable feature is Coi'
Craighill's strong protest against con-
timing the work on New river, when
he declares would, in his Judgment DC
a shameful waste of public money.
After a suspension of work on this river
for some years, Congress IN 1000
appropriated $4,000 for going aneau
with it. OF this amount 81, 34l.29 re,
mains remains unexpended. 1t wouid
cost $4,000 to compile the improve
ment. and Col. Craighill says that any
further expenditure would not accom-
plish the smallest useful result.
OF the work on the Kanawha, Col.
Craighill reports that five dams have
been com pIeted, two are under contract
and for another a site has been purchas-
ed. Two more will be necessary.
Locks Nos. and s. and the foundations
of the dams, will be completed this
year. As the improvement progresses
the commerce of the river greatly In
creases. Gauge readers, to give the
stage of the water, are now located al
Kanawha Falls and Hinton and Col.
Craighill recommends that for perfect
security another be stationed on the
upper Gagley. 1t will require S67, 600
to complete the work and Col. Craighill
that $4,000 be appro-
priated for the next fiscal year.
On Elk river small force OF men
have been moving snags since June 80,
1890. The last Congress appropriated
50, 500 for this river and similar appro-
priation is recommend. The improve
ment of the Gauley river, for which the
last Congress appropriated $4,000, was
begun last spring but was stopped by
high water. Col. Craighill recommends
another appropriation Of $4,000 for the
work on Gauley river.

FINpLAY, OHIO, July 17.-Last night

visited Rev. Reidinger's residence at
North Redgeville, after he and his wife
had retired, and bombarded the house
with boulders and brick-bats, breaking
in the windows of the lower portion OF
the house and otherwise defacing the
property. Several of the boulders land
ed in on the bed whore the Reverend
gentleman and his wife were accustom-
ed to sleep, but on this particular night,
very fortunately, as it proved, they had
retired in an upstairs room. Had they
been down stairs, the results might
have been serious. Mr.. Reidinger had
been preaching very strongly In favor
of temperance, which is presumably the
cause of the brutal outbreak. The sober
minded citizens Of the town have organ
lied for the protection Of the minister
and stirring times are expected in the
