The ChIeftnin still Lives.

New YoRK,-At 8 o'clock, after consula-
ton this morning, the physicians find that
General Sherman has lost nothing during
the night.
At 1920 O'Clock P. T. Sherman, the gen.
erals son, most emphatically denied that ex-
treme JUNCTION was administered to his father
yesterday. The general, he said, was not a
Catholic, and never had been one. The visit
of Father Taylor was for the purpose of
comforting the family, and not to admins
ter the sacrament.
11:G p. m.-Leutenants Thackeray and
Fitch have just left General Sherman's house.
Lieutenant Thackeray said that at this hour
General Sherman was not sleeping. He was
using all his strength to breathe. His glands
were much swollen and his throat was clog
ged with mucous. He was growing rercep-
tioly weaker. Drs. Green and Alexander
are with him. The erysipelas had him.
1870 a. m.-Private Secretary Barrett has
issued bulletin stating that General Sher-
man was apparently sleeping and the doc
tors looked for an easier night than they at
first expected.
The general has taken little nourishment
during the evening.
Ia m.-General Sherman's condition is
unchanged. He is resting, and tho house
has been closed for the night.

ATLANTA, GA, February 12.-There is
sensation here because Governor Northen re-
fused to be present at q reception given Jay

On being asked why he refused, Governor
Northen said:
visit here has no official character. While

eace of Mr.. Gould.

approve of his policy of monopoly and his

this conclusion. The common people owe
Mr.. Gould nothing, and a. chief executive OF

Secretary RIaIns,s Estimates.

WASHINGTON, D. c.. February 12.-Secre-
Iary of State ]. G. Blaine has, at the direc-
ton of the president, submitted to the latter
statement of facts bearing upon the COM
mercial arrangement just made with Brazil.
OF the articles which will enter Brazil from
this country free of duty, after April next,
Brazil has been importing to the annual
value of over s2O,O03, 1876; of which 49,
3S4, 633 has gone from this country and S16,-
600. 800. IS from all other countries.
Of the articles on which, under the treaty,
the duties will be reduced % per cent.
when exported from the United States, Bra
I'll imports annually S38, 81, 242.7O; of winch
$2,095, S99 goes from this country and $685.
695,S43.70 from all other countries.
In return for these concessions the United
States admits into its markets free of duty
the sugar, molasses, coffee and hides, the
growth and product of Brazil.
< It should be remembered that the duties
on Brazilian imports from other countries,
other than the United States, remain the
same; thus giving great encouragement of
and protection for large increase in the
amount of trade between the two countries.

WaelzIx Trade RaVIeM

NEW YORK, February 17.-R. G. Dun i
Co. weekly review of trade says:
There is some improvement IN business at
the east and a more confident feeling, and at
Chicago the tone is very hopeful. But at
most of the western and nearly all the south
ern points, business shows no increase in
volume and is rather hesltating. Business,
on theswhole, is somewhat smaller in volume
than it was a year ago, notwithstanding the
advance Of about 10 per cent. in the average
prices of commodities. In part, this is ex-
planned by the exceptional activity toward
the close of last year, but in part also by a
shortness of crops and doubts regarding the
monetary future. These doubts, however,
have been much lessened by events which
tend to show that no important monetary
legislation is probable for the next year, and
while exports of gold are announced the rate
of exchange hardly justifies them as yet.
Provisions a shade weaker, with fall of
IL cents in corn; wheat and oats have de-
clined each q fraction on small sales, but
coffee and oil are stronger and continue I'M
changed.
Throughout the country the money m az
kets are comparatively easy and undisturbed,
though the demand is good ami the supply
hardly adequate. At most places they are
fair or good.
The business failures occurring throughout
the country during the last seven days num-
Der 297, as compared with total of BOG last
week. For the corresponding week last year
the figures were BOP.

wAsH1NGroS, D. c.. February 16.-The
following is President Harrison's message to
congress announcing the death of Admiral
Porter:
To the Senate and House of Representatives:
The admiral of the navy, David Dixon

and successful, and his death ends very
high and honorable career. His countrymen

cherish with grateful pride the memory of
his deeds. To the officers of the navy his
life will continue to yield inspiration and en-
cOura2ement. BENZ. HARRISON.

RpcIprocIty Marching On.

WASHINGTON, D. c., February 13.-It is
understood that the president has all ready
for announcement a proclamation of reel
procity with Venezuela similar in terms to
the agreement just reached by the exercise
of powers conferred by the legislation in the
last session of congress, and will take effect,
according to report, about the same time as
the agreement with Brazil.
While the commerce of Venezuela is not
as large as that of Brazil, the United States
has for several years enjoyed a much larger
proportion of the importing business than
any other nation dealing with the Venezu-
clans.
The total exports of Venezuela In 1886 we're
a little more than S11 .OOO, 900, and their i'm
ports were about $4,000, 900.
OF this amount the VeneZuelans took from
Us more than $1,000. 900 In 1885, and in 1888
that country took from the United States
products to the amount of $30O0,000.
This included about 100000 worth of
breadstuffs, principally wheat -four, about
$500, 900 worth of clothes, $500, 600 worth of
manufactures of iron and steel, and more
than $4,000 worth of provisions and dairy
products.
The latest figures procurable of our i'm
ports from Venezuela are those of 1888 In
that year We imported a llttlo more than
100000 altogether, made up of about
$2S0, 900 worth of chemical and dye woods,
drugs and medicines; 5000, 900 worth of
coffee, about 5000 worth of cocoa, $780,
600 worth of hides and skins, and 500, 600
worth of other articles.
The imports had increased from about
$4,000, 600 in 1870 to more tnan $1,000, 900 in
1880, and the increase from 1880 to 1885 was
about 81, OO0, 900. While the United States
sends more products to Venezuela than any
other foreign nation the imports of the
United Kingdom, France and Germany to-
gether, are larger than of the United States,
and the imports are in extent in the order,
respectively, of the nations mentioned.
