NEW YoRx, February 6.-R. G. Dun & Goa
Weekly Re view of Trade says:
The actual business is surprisingly large
for the season, and yet the fears about the fu-
ture are also large. Congressional uncertain
ties cause the fears, but prosperity and the
needs of the people make business what it Is,
and never before has the distribution or
products to consumers been larger than IL
has been thus far this year. Yet it Is prob
ably safe to say that rarely, If ever, except
in a time of panic, has business been more
cautiously and conseEvatively regulated.
Monetary uncertainties are excused by the
continued outgo of gold. but the passage OF
the snti-optlons bill Dy the senate has had
no effect upon the market as yet. While
there is much cutting eff rates by the rail-
roads and the movement has been greatly
interrupted in tho west by severe storms, the
volume of traffic astonjshes the managers

have advanced. The trade is low and me-
dunn grades of mems woolens about closing
at the time when it is usually opening, ana
while the demand for fine goods Is less
strong, possibly because of the anticipation
of tariff changes, the general tendency is
clearly toward greater economies IN manu-
facture. Trade in boots and shoes Is very
active.
While S., 10000 of gold was ordered for
shipment. and the amount may be larger,
the receipts from the interior are SO heavy
that the money markets are not disturbed
and foreign exchange is slightly lower.
Produce exports are $4,000, GOO less than
last wear since January, and there is also 8
decrease at cotton ports IN spite of the ad-
vance in prices, Uncertainty about the
monetary future retards business engage.

Humphrey to be Looked Over.

TOPEKA, February 6.-The populist house
decided that the investigation should be
made which was asked for in the resolution
of Mr.. Newman, of Clay county, in which it
was stated that j. E. Hudson had charged
that Lew Hanback, was paid 500 month
out OF the state treasury to take care OF
Humphreys campaign for congress.
The house decided not to investigate the
charge that Judge Hutchinson, of the Thirty
second judicial district, was paying 500 a
month to Judge Botkin for securing him the
appointment.

In Statu Quo.

The situation in the Kansas house of rep.
resentatives is unchanged and the business
of that branch of the legislature is at stand
still. The two houses go In session regularly
but do nothing. The republicans are await
ing an opportunity to get the controversy
before the supreme court, as the only way
in which an adjustment of the difficulties
csn be brought about, but the populists seem
to fear a decision and avoid giving an oppor-
tunity of getting into the court.

Justice Jackson,

WASHINGTON, D. c., February 4-Judge
Jackson is a democratic ex-senator, and at
present is Judge of the United States court
for the district of Tennessee.
His nomination to fill Lamar's seat came
as a great surprise on the senate side and
was received while the senate was in execu-
tive session. With the exception of few
who think that the president should have
appointed republican, the nomination was
well received. There Is said to be little, II
any. opposition to his confirmation.

q STAMP ROOM.
The Novel Wall Covering of London
ADartmcnf.

The Novel Wall Covering of a London
Apartment.
In a certain old-fashioned house in
London there is a room about twelve
feet square, the walls OF which are
completely papered with postage
stamps 1t is estimated by Mr.. Pal
mer. who is the largest stamp dealer
in the world, that these stamps would
be worth five million dollars but for
the unfortunate circumstance that they
are not genuine.
Mr.. Palmer extracted these forgeries
from collections which he has bought
from time 10 time. As = rule he says
the people from whom he bought them
did not know they were forgeries- No
forged stamp, however, is likely 10
pass as genuine when ii falls under his
scrutiny.
This crazy patchwork shows sPcci-
men of every known stamp in the
world. The Pail Mall Budget says
there are seventy thousand stamps on
the walls of the room. and that il took
almost thirty years to collect them
To make wall paper ont of them
kept four pairs of hands busy for three
months. They are pasted upon canvas,
so that it will not be necessary 10 re
move the building in order 10 remove
the stamps. Paste. not gum was used
because gum discolors stamps, Hav-
ing been fastener to the canvas, the
stamps were treated to a coat of shell
lac and then vanished"
While there cannot be much artistic
beauty in "A room papered in this way,
il suggests an idea for those discour-
aged stamp collectors who started
with the intention of securing a mil
lion. but have at last abandoned the
idea after patiently soaking of and
tying up several thousands of the small
bits of paper, gathered 10y their own
industry and through the contributions
of pitVing friends.

ion as the lights from two lanterns fell

pose we will have - get him into the
caboose and leave him at the station
They gathered up the remains as
best they could, says the New York
Recorder, and, after getting them
aboard the train, gave the signal To go
ahead.
Yes, he was only a tramp. The
brakeman addressed as Bill had seen
the man fall between two ears while
stepping from one To another. The
train had been stopped, and the two
raiIroadcrs went back to see what
damage had been done. In the ca
boose they made a search of the dead
mans clothes. They didn't find much;
no money, not even a knife. In the in
side pocket II the ragTed vest was
greasy-lool5inr envelope. In taking
out the letter a tiny band of gold fell
To the floor. While one picked up the
ring the other read the letter. 1t had
been well fingered. and there were un-
ulStdkdblS SpDIS lIldI pulN tears cOulu
have caused. The handwriting was a
woman's, and read as follows:
Dear Jim: Mary is dead, and in
her last words she inquired for papa.
She missed you SO much. and never
seemed TO be well after you went.
am sorry, Jim, for what | said that
night, and if you viii come back
will never complain and worry you
any more. | send you Mary's ring;
you remember when you got il for her.
Please come back To yOur wife"
That was all. The wife had heard
in some way where her husband was
and had sent him the letter. IT oc-
CURED to one of the brallemen to look
ut the postmarl<, and with difficulty il
was seen that il was month old. and
that it was that of the very place at
which they had decided to leave the
dead body
Jim must have met with misfortune,
and was stealing his way home, which
he reached only TO be carried out and
laid beside little Mary.
