Dun's Trade Review.

New York, April @.-Dun's weekly
review of trade says: More favorable

quarters where collections have been
slow on that account this week an
improvement has been noticed. Mean

to surpass all previous records. gaining
but little, yet gaining at least over last
year and falling behind only about l per
cent at the south in the aggregate, not
w~ithstanding the great depression in the

has been over 10 per cent greater than in
any other year at the west, though on
the Pacific slope some decrease appears.

kets and reports from other cities clearly

YELLOWSTONE PARK INQUIRY.

Walters, the Manager, Testifies Before the
House Committee ON Public Lands.
WASHINGTON, April 3O.--The question
Of the Yellowstone park leases was again
investigated by the house public lands
committee this morning. Z. G. Walters
of Montana, for four years the manager
of the Yellowstone Park association, ties
tifying. A letter was produced and read
by him which was addressed to +. +.
Cakes, st. Louis, and was in substance
as follows:
Party to whom $1,000 worth of Vel
lowstone Park association stock is to 60
when paid for in dividend is r. c. Kernes
of st. Louis. Will you please notify
him of the situation namely. that the
amount is held by order of the directors?
My friend will probably explain to him
as fully as he desires"
A member of the committee asked the
witness to whum the term my friend
referred and the witness replied that it
was his lawyer. Tho witness was again
asked to tell why the $1,000 of stock was
SO promised and for what purpose. In
answer Walters said he had come to
Washington to secu certain leases from
the then secretary of the interior, Villas,
but had accomplished nothing. and upon
seeing that he could not get anything
done he said to Cakes that when another
administration came in he could get the
matter through. He acknowledged &C.
quaintance with Russell Harrison, and
said at the time he thought he might in
tercede in the matter and help him to
get them fixed up. On close question
ing by a member of the committee the
witness said the 5000 of stock was in
tended for Russell Harrison, but that
neither he CHarrison) nor Kernes knew
anything about it. Harrison. however.
was to give his aid and did not know the
stock was set aside for him until last
spring, when he had been told so.
Walters further said that he had never
promised Harrison stock for his influence,
and when he was told of it Harrison APP
peared much embarrassed and said he
would not have the matter known for
anything. Harrison told him, said
Walters, that he would see Secretary
Noble and lay the matter before him,
but whether that was ever done he did
not koow, as Gibson had come on to
Washington to attend to the matter and
staid until it was concluded. The com
mittee will continue the investigation
Monday.

Seal Poachers Propose to Work Under the
Mexican Flag.
WASHINGTON. April 29.-The officials
of the state department place no ere
dence in the reports that tht Canadian
sealers propose to enter Behring sea
under the protection of governments
other than Great Britain and the United
States. They say that both countries
would resent such a palpable fraud, and
it is not likely that any other country
would consent to the use of its flag for
the sole purpose of violating the laws of
the United States in regard to seal
poaching. The agent of the North
American Commercial company has IN
formed the treasury department that it
was reported that the poachers intended
to sell their vessels to MeXicans and
enter the sea flying the flag of that
country, but no one attaches much i'm
portance to the report.

WAsHINGToN, April 29.-The enlisted

cravats. the first they have had since the
days when the military wore stocks.
When Gen. Hollabird was quartermaster
general he made his memory dear to the
private soldiers by adding a linen shirt
to the wardrobe of the enlisted mar and
giving that worthy a linen collar when
lie wanted to dress up. There was a
good deal of discussion by the present
quartermaster general when he succeeded
Gen. Hollabird as to whether the soldier
should pin his collar to his shirt or
whether the army should be put to the
enormous expense of purchasing collar
buttons. The subject brought up the
matter of abandoning the linen shirt en-
tirely. 1t was finally decided, however,
to retain the shirt and provide cravats
The latter will be made of black
silk and. as a starter. 2O.O0O ties will be
purchased. The announcement of the
addition to the soldiers uniform will

Celebrating the Political UpheavaI
The Recent Bank Failure.

Inc recent BANK Failure.
A correspondent, n. S. T., writing
from Auburn to the RECORD UNION. nm
der date of the 10th, says: One Of the
most novel and interesting spectacles
ever witnessed on the streets of Auburn
took place last Saturday evening. The
affair was intended as a Democratic
jubilee or rejoicing over the election Of
Cleveland and general success of their
party.
The Republicans, though badly beaten
in the Presidential contest, were partially
successful in electing their county nomi-
nees, and so magnanimouslv volunteered
to join their opponents In making a
parade that would be imposing and
creditable to both victors and Vanquished.
What there were of the Peoples party
and Prohibitionists also turned out, max
ing the celebration very imposing and
attractive.
Short and spirited speeches were made
along the line of march from the lower
town to the depot. There was an aound-
ance of music by the Grass Valley, New
castle and Auburn bands, flags were tiy-
ing and torchlights and fireworks blazing
away all along the route.
Auburn's sold cannon-a size or two
smaller than those sent out for coast de-
fenses-pealed forth at intervals from a
neighboring hill, followed by huzzars
loud and long by an excited and enthusi-
astic throng OF people.
Ii had been heralded abroad that there
was TO be political demonstration of the
kind, and by evening the little city Of the
hills was crowded with visitors eager to
see and participate in celebrating what
would seem to be both of victory and de-
1eat.

There were killing frosts in the greater

THE COUNT COMPLETE.
Only the Totals of the Returns are Left
to Be Footed Up.
The Supervisors Hold Night Session
in Order to Finish Up
the Tallying.

The Board of Supervisors resumed its
task Of canvassing the returns of the late
election yesterday forenoon.
Chairman Greer asked the clerks to
turn on little extra steam and see if they
could not finish up by evening. They
did hurry up, but by supper time still
had the greater portion of the Fifth Su-
pervisor District to 90 over. Mr.. Greer
then ordered a night session and the work
was concluded shortly before 10 O'Clock
that is all of the precincts were tailed.
The clerks were about pegged out at this
time and the Chairman, taking pity on
them, permitted the work of footing up
the totals to go over.
The RECoRD-UNIoN gives the official
count to-day by precincts-just as the
canvassers have left it.
While many predicted that the official
count would show many mistakes on the
part of the various election boards the re-
suit shows that as rule they made few
mistakes. The count developed few
changes from the unofficial returns as
first given out and as published at the
time in the RECORD-UNIoN. Such
changes as there were did not amount to
much.
The tallies in the contest for Sheriff
was watched closely during the count, as
it was about the only one in which there
was question as to who was entitled to
the office. The result shows, however.
the RECORD UNIONS first announcement
was correct-that Thomas O'NeiI had
been elected Sheriff. Mr.. O'Neirs ma
jority is just eighty-seven votes.
The missing tally-sheet of the Tenth
Precinct of the Second District was found
yesterday among the pile OF returns and
was canvassed. There was not change
or a correction in it.
Chairman Greer stated last night that
he had attended numerous official counts
on previous elections, but the present
one had been attended with less friction
and disputes and conducted with more
facility than any Of them. He attributed
this largely to the new election law, and
also gave due credit to the efficiency of
the clerks.
