Mr.. Duke and the Louisburg Female
College.
ILouisburg Times.]

As our readers and many others al
ready knew Mr.. Washington Duke, Of
Durham, a few weeks ago, purchased the
Louisburg Fen alo College property. At
the time Of the purchase. and since, a
great deal Of speculation has been indul-
ged in as to what changes, if any, Mr..
Duke would make in it's management.
Desiring to satisfy our people along this
line the editor Of the Times addressed
letter to Mr.. Duke, asking him some
questions in regard to it and requesting
him to write US the facts so that we
might give them to our readers. He has
very kindly, after some delay, answered
the questions propounded, and authori-
Zed Us to state that the report that he
would name it the MARY Duke College,
was all a mistake, and that it would re.
main as here. ofore "The Louisburg Fe-
male College" If the name is ever
changed, it viii not be done IN several
years. The Times will state futher that
the present plan Of Mr. Duke is to lease
the propeaty 10 Prof. S. D. B gley, the
/ p;cs2!5 President, for term of years,
upon conditions satisfactory to both
parties. The strength Of the influence OF
Mr.. Duke and his friends will be fully
given to make the College a complete
success, and in this effort they will ex
pect the continuous hearty cooperation

[By The United Press. ]


New YORK, May 1,-R. G. Dun & Co.'S
weekly review CT trade will say: "The
reports of trade are, on the whole, more
favorable than a week ago. Trade at
western and southern points seems to be
especially encouraging this week.
The great industries are in better
shapes. The price Of pig iron is fairly
we'll sustained, and the demand for fin
ished producs Of iron and steel is more
encouraging.
There has been some financial irrita-
tion during the week, owing to the
statements made by Nj. L9ecn, Direc
tor of the Mint, as if by authority
of the Treasury Department, and the
later statement by Secretary Foster,
has not entirely removed the feeling Of
apprehension.
The business failures during the last
seven days number for the United States
228, and for Canada 81, or total of
255. as compared with total of 247 last
week, and s51 the week previous to the
last. For the corresponding week OF
