RIFT In THE CLOUD.
R. G. DUN s. CO.'S REPORT
is ENCOURAGING.

Signs of Improvement Throughout
the Country Are Unmistakable
Though Not Very. Pronounced
Causes Leading Thereto.
NEW York, Aug. 19.-R. G. Dun &
Co. Weekly Review of Trade says:
There is a rife in the clouds Faint
and yet definite signs of improve
ment are all the better because they
come, not from possibly delusive hopes
or from momentary foreign aid, but
from the good sense and the wonderful
recuperative power of the people them
selves. Business is trying togo ahead
without waiting for Washington. I'm
ported gold. 100000 or more during
the week, does not go to the right spot,
but the people are creating home
made currency for themselves by using
certified checks in paying hands, set
Ting local accounts and purchasing
grain and cotton. The bank circulation
has increased 81, 900, 900 but the
Decrease on Deposits
of national banks alone from May 4 to
July 12 was $1y3, 1863, 5SS, and during
the past month withdrawals have also
been heavy. Little money comes back
as yet from timid boards, and the par
alysis of exchange is nearly as complete
as ever, but that very fact pushes each
section and city into relying more on
itself and less on the government.
Many concerns are failing or closing,
but assumptions are now becoming
somewhat frequent and in the very
shrinkage OF production men see evil
dence that demand must soon overtake
supply. No such shrinkage resulted at
any time in five weary years after the
panic of 1878 as has already appearedin
The Great Industries.
Pig iron does not rally but sells at $14
here and $13 at Pittsburg for No. /,
though the weekly output has been re-
duced 46 per cent since May 1. Sales
of wool in seven weeks have been only
II, ,575, 800 pounds against 80. 327, $50 last
year and S7,450, 800 in 1891, and it is
stated that $4,000 looms and 100000
spindles in New England are now idle,
which means more than quarter of
the cotton spindles in the country. Ship
ments Of boots and shoes from Boston
since the end Of June have been 462, 849
cases against .572, 345 last year, a de.
crease of II 1-2 per cent.
With such shrinkage in the great in
dustries, it is only surprising that rail-
road earnings do not decline more, the
decrease on roads reporting in August
thus far being 15 per cent. The re-
ceiYership for the Northern Pacific had
been SO fully discounted that it pro-
duced little effect in the stock market.
though this is the third great railroad
default this year and the aggregate
stocks and bonds Of the three roads
amornt to $3.50. 100000.

IT rs IMPOSSIBLE.
SECRETARY CARLISLE TALKS
OF a CHANGE IN RATIO.

1t Would Cost the United States Over
Hundred Millions For Reooinage
to Adopt ANY Ratio Ia Advance of
the Present Voorhees, Trump
Gard.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 21.-In an article
headed ''The Present Situation" which
the Washington Post makes the most
prominent feature in Sundays issue, it
says: The free coinage of silver at a
ratio OF 20 to 1 or at any increased ra-
ito is practically impossible. This is
the trump card which Senator Voor-
hees is TO play in the senate on Tues
day. It is behind this barrier that he
is to intrench himself. This is to be
his explanation for abandoning the
convictions cf lifetime This is to be
his answer TO those who viii quote
against him his
Memorable Speeches in the Past.
This trump card has been played in
Senator Voorhees, hand by the admin
istration. Secretary Carlisle, who, de-
spite all assertions to the contrary, is
loyal to the president in the last de-
gree, first gave to Senator voorhees,
verbally the data to make good this as
sertion that free coinage is impractical
bic. He has gono further than this and
has prepared an elaborate letter which
the senator will read in the senate on
Tuesday. In this letter the statement
is made that it will cost the country
between SIP, COO, 900 and $4,000, 900 to
carry out the provisions of Senator
Vests FREQ coinage bill. It is true that
there is nothing in Senator Vests bill
about recoinage. But it does not need
prophet vision to know that
Dollars Below Par,
which only the government is COM
PEELED to take, will drift into the treas
ury in payment Of customs duties and
taxes, and will there remain to the con-
jestion Of the currency. Unless they
can be recoined they would be useless
as money, and il there is free coinage
at an increased ratio, some OF the silver
inanciers in the senate must provide
the secretary Of the treasury with over
a hundred millions Of dollars to exc
cute the law. Altogether it would
seem as if the silver men were involved
in situation from which it will be
difficult to extricate themselves.

against Langford, agent for the Rich

fict with the state and United States
constitutions and is therefore void. The
state will probably appeal.

CnIcAGo, May 1.-Lovers of flowers
wandered through the Horticulture building
today, unable to tear themselves away for
the purpose of inspecting the other depart
ments of the fair. Everybody found fresh
revelations in the wondrous variety of favor
ite flowers, and the tropical verdure trans
planted the visitor for the moment to the
sunny southland. Winding pathways
through the courts and curtains of the buill-
ing led on to fresh revelations. Around
the interior of the great dome, where
great gallery hangs over the main floor,
hundreds looked out upon the vistas of YER
dure and brilliant color for hours at time
Horticultural Hall contains much more
floor space than the combined areas of the
horticultural buildings of the Philadelphia
Centennial, New Orleans and Paris. Ex-
bibits in horticulture are here from all over
the globe. From far-away Australia, from
Japan, from South America, from every
European country. and from every quarter
of the North American continent have come
the wealth Of fruits and flowers peculiar to
each locality. and the result Of the gather
ing was to entrance the visitor who today,
for the first time, gazed upon the great col
lection. The dome is given up to the
largest tree ferns, palms, bamboos and
giant cacti. The rear pavilion, or intc.
rior court, is devoted to the exhibition
Of green fruits. The front pavilion il in
use altogether for Horticulture. Looking
from the dome either north or south, the
view from any point is exceedingly pictur-
esque. Straight lines have been obliterated
The footways wind around with charming
effect, and at any point there is cOntinuon,
view through the whole front Of the build
ing. In the north pavilion are the foreign
exhibits. There are magnificent tree fern,
and tropical plants from Australia. Japar
has about One-third of section, and Ger
many about the same. Other prOminen
foreign exhibitors are Belgium, Great Britair
and France. The central groups are per
manent exhibits, while the side groups. IL
the Horticulture department, will c0ntair
the ever-varying display of the seasons
| There will be special days and weeks fol
the display Of certain flowers and plants
| both indoors and outdoors. T0day's exhi
bition, in honor Of the opening Of the fair
was an immense display Of rhOdodendroni
and azaleas. This will continue until May
., when there will be such show of orchid
as Americans have never seen before. II
June there will be dahlias, geraniums
Towering ANNALS, ornamental leaf plant
and exotics. July will bring glorciniss
Gala, ornamental grasses, aquatics and ex
otics, while in August ornamental plant
and roses will have sway. These specia
exhibitions will continue each month wbil
the Exposition lasts. The wine and frui
displays, which are Included in this depart
ment, are fully equal to the highest ex
pectations, and compare favorably viii
those of any previous exposition.

electric button. This was the signal for a
demonstration, in fact, difficult of imagina-
ton and infinitely more so of description.
At one and the same instant the audience
burst into a laundering shout, the orches-
ira pealed forth the strains Of the hallelu-
jah chorus, the wheels of the great "Allis
engine in Machinery hall commenced to re-
volve, the electric fountains in the lagoon
threw their torrents toward the sky, Hood
of water gushed forth from the McMonnies
fountain, and rolled back again into the ba-
SIN the thunder of artillery came from
vessels in the lake, the chimes in the Man
ufacturer's hall and on the German build
ing rang out merry peal, and overhead
the flags at the tops of the poles in front of
the platform fell apart and revealed two
gilded models of the ships in which Colum-
bus first sailed to American shores, and
thus declared the opening of the Worlds
Fair an accomplished fact.
1t was precisely at the hour of noon that
