FOR THE FENClBLES' BENEFIT.
An Excellent Play Well Played--A Worthy
Endeavor.

An amateur performance, rendered by
combination never yet tested before Il
public in the particular roles respectively
essayed is somewhat of an experiment,
these results being varied, for oftentime
artists hold the boards and strong effects
never dreamed OF are attained. Even in
plays of trivial worth and pretensions
such phenomena are observable
II was Il oold venture, Gilbert, to play
"Daniel Druce." The cast is not extensive,
includes but nine characters, and yet it is
no eNaggeration to say that it was bold
essay to try to present it. 1t is by no means
play which plays itself. Its characters
are clearly defined and the individual
composition of each enters as part and par
eel of the play and imparts
to it It's motif Botched it is
insu fe~3bly boring. Executed with the
least spark of nature aud adherence to the
characters the author intended should be
portrayed, it chains the fancy and holds the
interest wrapt To the credit of the COM
binatiOn which last night presented it. be it
said that something worthy of attention
and interest was produced. As Daniel

execution of his conception showed talent
and training. In the first act there was a

was enraged, and he shouted, BE quiet,

CONDITION OF BUSINESS.
Improvement in Trade Throughout the
Country-Encournging Prospects.

Improvement In Trade Throughout tho
COuntry-Encournging Prospects.
New YoRk, Sept. 1l.-R G. Dun 6
Co.'S weekly review OF trade says: All
returns af the condition OF business are
encouraging. There is no room for
doubt about the Improvement in trade.
From nearly every city reporting there
comes the same cheering information.
that business is better and prospects
brighter. At Philadelphia the tone OF
the iron market has much improved.
Dry goods sales in August at Chicago
were the largest ever known, clothing
trade is very large with fair collections
and trade excellent. Money plentiful
for legitimate use.
Even at the south the improvement
is general, especially at Louisville,
Memphis, Savannah and Atlanta, and
at New Orleans trade Is more active.
The enormous receipts of wheat have
depressed the price ut one time below
81 per bushel The exports continue
large, but the belief is growing that
foreign crops are not quite as short as
has been reported.
The great industries are making satis-
factory progress. Production has been
maintained for three months within
very little short OF the largest quantity
ever reached and the consumption cam
not be far behind. A larger demand is
seon for finished products, especially
for bar iron, and the plate mills are full
OF orders, but in rails no change is OBJ
served. Wool is selling fairly well at
all the important markets and there is
seen II better demand for dry goods
which gives much encouragement to
manufacturers.
The financial outlook is clear. The
opening Of Germany and Denmark to
American pork proructs has lifted the
price of pork half dollar per barrel.
With the greatest crops ever grown,
and an unprecedented foreign demand
for grain and meats the prospect must
be considered unusually encouraging.
The business failures during the past
seven days number 2l4, as compared
with total OF 2I7 last week. For the
corresponding week OF last year, the
figures were 1893.

THE TRADES CONGRESS.
The Elght-Hour Question Carried After .
Short Debate.

9hbAt ONPtAANs
New CASTLE, Sept. 11.--At this morn
ing's session of the trades union con-
gress motion to instruct the parlia-
mentary committee to press the passage
Of the eight-hour law, at least so fur as
it concerned workmen employed in the
mines, was opposed by the northern
miners on the ground that further legis-
lation would iniure their trade, but was
carried by vote OF 237 to 50, after q
short debate, for the ground had been
fought over and the principles aired
and decided at Wednesdays and Fhura-
days sessions.
The delegates approved a motion to
the effect that workmep and work
women should be appointed inspectors
Of factories, adding to the motion the
recommendation that this principle
should also be applied to the inspection
OF workshops and factories situated
within the British Indian possessions.
In addition, the delegates advocated
making it penal offence for an tnspec-
tor Of factories, etc., to give warning to
the employers of labor OF his or her in
tended visit Of inspection.
Upon motion being put in regard to
the place where the next trade union
congress is to meet, there was IN ex-
change OF varied opinions--many places
in England, Scotland and Wales being
advocated by the delegates from these
countries. Finally 1t was decided that
the trades union congress Of 1882 Is 10
sit at Glasgow, Scotland.

The Work Of the Trades Union Congress-
Reviewed.
LONDON, Sept. 1l.-AIthough the new
Unionists held an overwhelming major
ity, in the Trades Union Congress they
used their power with moderation
and discretion in marked contrast with
last years meetings. socialistic to the
last, land naturalization and denuncia-
tion OF capital were not permitted to
occupy the attention OF the congress,
the delegates applying themselves to
discussions Of immediate practical ma
ture.
The democratic character OF the
Congress was never. more pronounced,
though socialistic views were less OBJ
trusive. The pervading tone OF thu
speeches showed an absolute conviction
that labor will within the near future
dominate Parliament and make the
country's laws.
The old colonists displayed the same
consciousness Of mastery OF the position
as the new Unionist, though tanner in
vindicating their labor claims and pre-
dictions of victory.
Inc mOuerutes COulu uOt pIeNeHG tllo
ultra Democratic section from passing
some erratic resolutions, such as
the payment Of county coulcil-
lors and vestrymen, and every
body holding representative
place, the appointment Of workmen
on juries and the payment of every jury
man ten shillings per day proposed,
which in general point to aspirations
on the rart-of- the delegates, or future
-spoils Of office. The proceedings cul-
minated to-day in q contest between
the old and the now Untonists over the

men desiring to reform the consti-
tuition. The Congress gave the uitras

A LIvEnY WAR
In the Cracker Trust-A story Tint Has
Just Leaked Out.

In the Cracker Trust-A Story Tint Has
Just Leaked Out.
ST. LOUIS, No., Sept. 11.-There is a
lively war among the members of the
American Biscuit and Manufacturing
Company, (cracker trust). That fact
has just leaked out. The American
Biscuit Company was organized in May,
$780, and is composed of thirty-four
different companies. Its authorized
capital is $40, 100000, represented by the
plants of the factories belonging to it.
The Dozer We'll Bakery Company and
the Manewal Lange Bakery Company
are tho two local members Of the trust.
The cause of the difficulty Is said to be
in tho way in which tire New Orleans
manufactures are encroachlng on st.
Louis territory. 1t is believed by
local iobber that while ST. Louis jobbers
can get their supplies from local facto-
les at only 10 per cent OF, the New Or
leans jobbers get 80 and 40 per cent off,
and come right into St. Louis cheaper
than the St. Louis jobbers. 1t is re-
ported that orders have been issued
from the trust headquarters for the
local factories to meet any rates made
by those who sell to local jobbers.

After sending the message, which he
said was the same as read in court yes
terday, he went in as rapidly as possible
to Col. Frank, commandant, and told
him of the occurrence, and suggested
that the doctor should be sent for as
Hannegan might not be yet dead. He
was then arrested by the civil authors

In answer to question by Mr.. Goode,
the prisoner stated that he considered
Hannegan one OF the best friends he had.
