cheese and especially cured meats. At ST.
Paul the jobbing trade IS brisk, and at Min
neapolis there is a marked increase with
unusual prospects for the lumber trade, but
flour is dull md low.
At St. Louis trade is reasonably strong,
with especial improvement in all building
massrials in spite of bad country roads ana
railroad washout. Trade at Kansas City
is quiet, though receipts of grain and cattle
are light because of bad weather. At Omaha
business in drygoods and shoes Is very
active and other trade fair.
At Louisville business is quite satisfactory
but dull: at Memphis, slackening: at Savan-
nah prospects are bright, and only fair at
New Orleans, though in cotton there is some
Improvement and sugar is strong anu
active.

principal markets for the year thus far ex-
coed last years, indicating larger manu-
facture.- Coal is dull but firm, sellers grad
ually getting up to schedule prices"
A better tone with larger sales is seen In
iron. The output Is reduced z ,5OO tons weekly,
and improved demand is seen for plate,
structural and sheet iron. Copper is dull,
with indicat tions that the combination has
failed. Some concessions are seen in coke
and tin plates Lead is dull, but tin rises a
a little.
Speculation has been stronger. wheat ad-
vancing 81 cents; corn, cents, and cotton

In Favor OF the Anticipation Bill.

To the Editor OF the Gazette:
FORREST CRY. Dec. 81 see in to-
days issue of Memphis Appeal-Ava-
lanche letter from one Clews. of New
York. to Senator Hiscock, asking him
to work and vote against the anti-op-
ton bill now pending before the United
States Senate. We, the farmers,
want that bill passed. There is no one
opposed to this bill except the gamblers
and thieves, and we cannot understand
why it is that such men rs they are
should interfear, as, il it should become
law, nobody but the fool farmers is
injured,
Last year the farmers Of the South
raised and sold about nine (9) million
bales of cotton and the gamblers and
spectators sold against that thirty (30)
million bales that never did exist.
What We want is to grow crops and
sell them on the market for what they
are worth on day OF shipn ents to our
commission merchants. The specula-
tors buy and sell the cotton crop of the
South before the seed are planted
In the month of October Of this year
5000 900 bales of cotton was sold by
the gamblers, when in fact the crop OF
this season will not be more than
5000 900 to 8. 900 900 bales. Vice versa
with the Western wheat grower and
pork raisers. Their wheat is sold be-
fore 1t sprouts in the ground. and their
meat is sold before the pigs are Matched
What the farmers want Furthermore
is to return to the good old ante
bellum" days before the War. put your
stuff Oh the market, and let 1t sell for
what it is worth. This law, as it now
stands, does not help any one that pro-
duces corn, cotton, wheat, meat, etc.,
but the fellows who never turns their
hands TO help to produce, and grow
rich at our expense. | cannot see how
any member of the Senate can vote in
opposition to this bill, when he knows
that gambling in the necessaries of life
is bound to be detrimental to the
agricultural classes. trust that all sem
ators who are friendly to the farmers
| ofthis country will vote for the passage
of this bill, as introduced by Senator
Hatch OF Missouri. Should it pass, |
hope 1t will not be distorted and dis.
inquired so the originator would not
know It, Suppose We try law onr time
that will assist the farmers in some
way, as generally the legislation of the
country has been in the interest Of
everything and everybody except the
man that digs it out of the earth. |

just kept stationary by an engine
which is not sufficiently powerful to
draw it up The incline. A second en-
zine of the same power as the first Is
then brought to assist by pushing the
train from behind, and the two engines
together take the train up the incline.
Suppose the coaches are linked together
by loose chains, so that when the en-
CINE in front is acting the chains are
stretched and the buffers between the
coaches are separated. Then when the

If they are together then the engine in
