TRADE REVIEW.

Dun'S Weekly Report shows Money TO BE
More Easy-The General Condition OF
Trade-Buslnesa Failures.
New York, Feb. 27-R G. Dun g.
Co. S weekly review of trade says:
Speculation in breadstuffs has been
much less active since gold began to
go abroad, and wheat has declined 4
cents during the past week, the Attain
tic exports being small, while receipts
at the west were over q 0O0 900 bushels
in three days. Corn has risen three
quarters Of cent and oats one-half
cent while scarcely any change ap-
pears in pork products Oil is u cents
lower, and coffee x cent stronger, with
small transactions in both.
''The state of domestic trade Is not
materially changed, though the con-
tinuing dullness is perhaps more gem
orally felt
1.-THE only great branch of manufac-
ture which makes discouraging reports
at present is the iron and steel indus
try. and the difficulty is not shrinking
consumption, but enormous increase
in production. In cotton larger con-
sumption than has ever been known
before is sustained by demand SO ac-
tive that advances in the prices of some
qualities are occasionally reported, in
spite of cheapness of the material In
woolens the mills have recently been
much more active, with larger orders
for goods and manufacturers pur-
chases- of wool are, for the past week.
much larger than a year ago The
building trades are irregular, some
cities reporting greater activity, but
where last years strikes shortened
hours and increased wages, there has
been general shrinkage which affects
the iron industry. The rail combina-
tion also restricts purchases of steel
rails, and started the year, it ap-
pears, with orders for only 525, 600
tons. no transactions having been
reported for the past week. There are
orders placed for several Thousand cars
and some locomotives, and the demand
for plate iron is somewhat better.

our Munio,pal AnaIre

Next Monday our annual city cleo
tion takes place, aud the same lines
are being drawn, and the same ele-
ments are again arrayed against each
other as in former years. The portion
Of Vinita's population that favOrs law
and order is without doubt in the ma
jofity, but the very vigorous and ac-
tive minority who favor the gambling
den and the saloon will again take
charge Of our city government unless
the property owners aud the business
men Of the town wake mp and come to
the rescue OF law and order. A can
didate's motives, and the course he
would pursue we're he in Office must
be judged of largely by considering
those who advocate his cause, and the
way a man conducts his own business,
and the standard OF his own morality
will be his guide in administering the
affairs of the city government. The
security Of property and the volume
OF business that will come TO our town
during the next twelve months will
depend largely upon the character OF
our city government. If our schools
are to be built up, our women and
children protected from insult on the
street, and law and order prevail, then
the municipal government must be
kept in the hands ~ those who be-
lieve in decent go' rnment.

Lecture on Foreign Missions.

DIR. j. s. Felix, a celebrated and elo-
quent Baptist divine of LyDchburg,
Va. delivered an able and interesting
lecture on Foreign Missions" in the
Baptist church here, on Tuesday night.
One hundred years ago from last May,
William Carey, of the Baptist Church
of England, preached his famous ser
mon which set on foot the great mod
ern revival of Missions. The Baptists
throughout the land are celebrating
this, the centennial year of the event,
by greatly increased contributions to the
missionary cause. DR.. Felix brought
home the cause to his audience in con-
vincing and forcible manner, impressing
all by his readiness of wit, flow of Ian
gnage and thrilling earnestness. A large
crowd was present, which followed closely
the remarks of the speaker.
A collection for the aid of Foreign
Missions was taken up, and the sum of
$55.00 realized.

Intelligence reached here yesterday of
sad occurrence near Gala Water. Two
boys, aged respectively ten and twelve
wears. the sons of "a farmer named Saun-
ders. went out fishing in small boat
yesterday morning. BY some means the
frail craft was capsiZed and both chill
dren were drowned. Their bodies had
not been recovered when our informant
left Gala Water yesterday afternoon.
A landslide occurred on the Rich
mond & Allegheny road, near Glen Wills
ton, on Monday afternoon about 4
O'Clock. All trains were delayed--the
passenger trains about three hours, and
freights from six to eight hours. No
one was hurt, but had SO heavy slide
occurred at night, the consequences
would no doubt have been serious.
