CONDITION Of TRADE.
II. C. Dun & Co.'s weekly Review of tho
state of business.

NEw YoRK, Sept. 8O.-R. G. Dnn &
Go. say in their weekly review OF trade:
Business continues larger than ever
and the commercial sky is without a
cloud. Money is everywhere in ample
supply, and collections have very lately
been more generally satisfactory. The
outgo OF money from western centers
for purchases in the country is larger
than usual, and yet there is no embar-
rassment. Crop reports are uniformity
favorable and the promise is distinctly
better than it was few weeks ago. In
general business is not only large and
remarkably healthy, but the outlook
for coming months is everywhere re-
garded with the utmost confidence.
At Boston dry goods are active and the
mills very busy with the demand in
some lines SO that they cannot produce
goods last enough. The boot and shoe
trade is very satisfactory. groceries and
furniture are active, and sales Of wool
much larger than last year. AT Phila-
deIphia iron improves with large sales.
Trade in glassware is very busy. Iron
is in better demand at Pittsburgh and
the glass business good. At Cleveland
trade is improving and larger than last
year, and ut Cincinnati tho clothing
trade is better than previous years,
though slight decline is seen at the
south for the western trade largely ex-
ceeds previous records. At Indianapo.
lis general tradeis fair. Business is sat
isfactory at Milwaukee and crops secur-
cd in good shape.
Chicago reports merchandise sales
greater than last year and all conditions
are good. Receipts Of products show
increase in everything except rye. At
st. Lonis trade is distinctly better and
collections prompt

sparring exhibition at the Biiou theatre

"What are you going to do about Nc

done nothing but blow for the last five
years and don't intend to pay any at

country. don't care if he has one
hundred thousand dollars in England.

In Ireland Assuming Grnyo Proportions.
Eject OF the Manifesto.
LONDON, Sept SO.-The gravity of the
eviction troubles becomes more intense
under the action OF Tory landlords.
The number of eyicted tenants now
reaches 4,500.
The number OF eviction notices pend
ing under the act OF 1887 reaches almost
10000. Many OF these are formal, but
tenants unless they pay their arrears
within six months after they receive
notice are liable to be ousted or become
mere caretakers OF their own farms.
II the landlords mean to try to foil
the Liberal policy by wholesale evic-
tions there will be bitter land war.
The ministerial circle is confident
that the cabinet will not hesitate to
sanction the boldest measures the Irish
executive may require to foil the union
ist tactics. Whatever may be tho
effect OF the McCarthyite manifesto in
America, it has fallen fiat here.
The Liberal press give it scant
comment, while the Conservative
papers dub 1t "a medicant
whine" its grandiloquence of language
failing to conceal its real character, an
appeal ior funds to enable the anti
Parneiites tolive in comfort in London
throughout the next session.

Mr.. Justice is pleased to state that !

This is a reflection upon tho intelli:
