The Trade Of the Week Was Disap-
printing, with Few Fluctuations.


In most departments trade. in the week
closing on Saturday, was short of expecta-
tions. Business was really active only on
two days. Travelling statesmen who came in
Saturday were rather discouraged. Retail
merchants in the cities and small towns are
not doing the business they expected and
collections are slow. Coffees lost the half
cent advance of ten days ago and sugars
carry an easier tone. Dry-goods houses are
having a fair trade on the more common
grades of goods, but high-priced goods sell
slow. Boot and shoe men report trade fair
as do the leather dealers. On Commission
row 1t was a dull week. The shutting down
OF the industries at such points as Ander-
son. Muncie. Marion and Elwood has great

tables. aside from potatoes. The latter are

EMPTY TREASURY.

PHILADELPHIA, March 7.-Colonel
\. X. Mcclure telegrnphed to the
Times as follows from Washington:
For months past the one effort of
the late administration was to con
ccal the true condition of the nation
a treasury and, embarrassing us its
condition is known to be, the public
Vii be startled when Secretary Car
llsics first statement shall be given
To the country. The treasury i lit.
orally bankrupt. The gold reserve
is actually below the minimum stand.
ard OF 100000 and Secretary
Foster refused "n Friday 10 sign a
two million warrant for M Indian
calm that should have been paid
months ago because there was not
money enough in thetitreasnry to
meet it
There is Sl04,G00.O0O of gold re-
serve, bat SS,O00,0O0 has been Dor
rowed from banks to keep up the APP.
pearance OF naintninine it, and,
counting only the actual available
cash assets of the treasury as they
were counted by former secretaries.
there is deficit of over S3O,OO0, 600.
All The gold shipped to Europe comes
direct from the treasnry vaults, and
GiIe government now receives no rold
revenues. Custom duties can be paid
III coin notes, and gold has ceased to
come imto the treasury.
ISSUE OF BONDS A NECESSITY.
The eally issue of bonds seems to
be an absolute necessity. aud it will
now require probably double OF
treble the sale of,,..,,bonds to recover
our strained credit In the mean.
time, with bankrupt treasury, we
must borrow gold to buy silver and
continue to nggravate the evil that
has brought the country to the verge
OF financial dishonor. 1900
The administration and the people
OF the country must accept this ap
palling condition as 1t is and: meet il
