The New York Herald Figures Out Demo-
cratic Presidential Chances.

lFcsiuchttai OnahcCss
The New York Herald presents table
showing the Presidential preferences OF the
Democracy In the various States. The
table shows that the mass of the Democ-
racy is looking to the West for man to
lead them TO victory. The figures are:
Hill, 2s5; Cleveland. 265; Western man,
$50. Mr. Cleveland seems TO be the choice
81 fifteen States--Califonia Connecticut,
Delaware, Maine, Massachusetts, Mime
sofa, New Hampshire. Ohio. Rhode Island,
South rakota, Vermont. Virginia, WASH
lngton, West Virginia, and Wisconsin.
Twelve OF these are Republican, and
only three are Democratic. Senator
Hill is the choice of ten States-Colo-
RADIO. Florida, Idaho. Maryland. Mississippi.
New Jersey. New York. Pennsylvania. South
Carolina, and Texas Seven are Democratic
and three Republican. But the real choice
Of the Democracy is shown In sixteen
States. They want a Western nan and are:
Arkansas, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa,
Kansas, kentucky, Michigan. Missouri.
Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, North Caro-
lima, North Dakota, Tennessee, and Wyo n
Ing. FL hit are Democratic and eight Re-
publican. Their $50 delegates stand solid
for Western man, and representing over
one-third of the convention. against the
other two thirds hopelessly divided, will
probably have a great effect in shaping the
conventions action Alabama, Louisiana,
and Oregon are, it is said. likely to be
divided between Hal and Cleveland.

eraI Supreme Court
The Mckinley act was declared constitu-
tional and Speaker Reeds rulings upheld
by the United States Supreme Court The
court split on the tariff opinion which was
rendered by Justice Harlan. The cases on
which the decisions were based were those
of Marshall Field of Chicago, and OF New
York merchants, who protested against the
payment OF duties on certain WOODEN dress
goods and other importations on the
ground that the Mckinley bill was
not legal and constitutional enact
ment by reason of the omission from
the enrolled bill OF the tobacco rebate
clause, agreed to In conference and con-
tanned in the bill when 1t passed both
houses. The court also holds thai the
reciprocity and sugar bounty sections OF
the bill are constitutional. 1t was con-
tended that the reciprocity section was un-
constitutional because 1t delegated legisla-
tive power to the executive. Chief Justice
Fuller and Justice Lamar dissented from
the opinion of the court The Supreme

Weekly Trade Review.

r G. Dun & Co. s weekly review OF trade
says
Domestic trade gradually improves, even
at the south, where much OF the trouble
seems TO have been due to unwillingness or
holders TO sell cotton at the low prices
rather than to actual loss on such sales.
Supplies OF money arc everywhere ample
1t is still the fact that the two dark spots
are directly caused by overproduction. Cot
ton receipts this week have been light.
Efforts TO curtail the production this year
appear to meet with some success The
only possible remedy for troubles In the
iron trade is to be applied, according TO
dispatches, by the closing OF some
furnaces. Current prices are called
about the lowest on record. Tho rail
combination still waits for buyers The
trouble I'm this industry Is that too great
and sudden expansion was expected. Cop
per IL unchanged tin weaker. and lead
moderately active. The coal market con-
tinues unchanged, as the combination Is
not ready to act, but agents recommend ain
output OF only $500, 600 tons In March.
