CHARLEsroN, w. Va, Feb, 1.-THE
general appropriation bill was reported
by Mr.. Brockunier to-day, 1t proposes
to appropriate for 1893 s8O3, OS6 rs, and
for 1894 $522,6l5. The principal items
are, for 1893; Penitentiary sG,350;
state university, S5O,4Sl 60; Weston
asylum, slS4,G5O; Spencer asylum, $lll,-
800; deaf and blind schools, S5O,4Sl co.
Concord school, SS,542; West Liberty,
$5O5O; Iairmont normal school, Sl6,-
27S n; Glenville schools, SlO,575i Shop
herdstown school, $4,000; colored insti-
tute, ,S4,O5Si Marshall college, $780,
printing and binding, $4,000; militia,
$l5,OOOi reform school, $4,000.
For 1894; Penitentiary, SIS, $50; state
university, $4,000; Weston asylum,
Sl3O,4OO; Spencer asylum, SCI 900; deaf
and blind schools, $4,000; Concord
school, 500; West Liberty, 81 $50; Glen
vile school, $l0,l50; Shepherdstown
school. SLIGO; Marshall college, s., ooOi
printing and binding $4,000; militia,
$4,000; reform school, $40, 500.
An appropriation Of $4,000 is pro.
posed for the Worlds Fair and $500 u
year for the state historical society,
Lively opposition is expected to the
Worlds Fair appropriation, and it is
likely that considerable time will be
lost in discussing other items OF the
bill. The appropriations for the uni
versity are considerably less than were
asked for. One OF tho most mertorious
items OF the bin is that appropriating
$1,000 for the historical society. The
society has accomplished wonders in
the past two years and it deserves lib
eral encouragement Tho total amounts
appropriated by the legislative and
general appropriation bills is 81, 358l70,
not including the amounts appropri-
ated by other bills for an executive
mansion, the Kenna statue bill, the bill
to pay for the third edition OF the code,
the amounts required for criminal
courts and other amounts appropriated
by special bills.

Our annual inventory is CON-

crease in the volume of trade over
any preceding year. Another fact,
we have learned our stocks in every

ever before. This is gratifying, as
peices have advanced from 10 to &c

II. G. Dun & Co.'s Weekly Review of th'
Business Outlook.

IL, q. Dun u Co.'s weekly Review Oh the
Business Outlook.
New YoRK, Feb, l7.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'s weekly review OF trade:
Exports of gold to-day will not be
100000, as at one time expected. 1t
was not more than 100000. and the
treasury reserve OF over $4,000 900 has
not been diminished, Moreover quite
large purchases OF securities on foreign
account received which could cancel
heavy adverse merchandise balances
and to that extent prevent gold ship
ments. At Pittsburgh a better tone is
seen in the iron market, with higher
prices for bessemer, and the glass trade
is improved by combination.
The hardware trade is excellent at
Cleveland, At Detroit business OK
ceeds that OF year ago. Business at
Chicago is better than last year and
collections are satisfactory. The wooden
works are busy as ever and sales OF
wool at the three chief markets this
year have had gain OF "a per cent. An
unprecedented demand is seen for
copper in electrical work, but tin is 10
cents per 100 pounds lower The coal
market is called as sloppy as the weather
has been. In the iron trade no distinct
Improvement is seen for while business
is large prices arc entirely demoralized
by intense competitions. Rails are an
exception. for $4,000 tons have been
sold without reported change in price
and structural works arc we'll employed
though at very low prices, but tho
demand for plates is not up to the capa-
city OF the works and bar iron is quite
weak.
The financial outlook depends largely
upon the fact that exports OF the prin-
cipal products in January we're S29,000,-
900 smaller than last year, while tho
imports at New York were Sl7,000,000
larger than last year, which indicates a
considerable excess Of imports for the
month and explains the heavy outgo OF
gold.
Tho business failures occurring
throughout the country during the past
seven days number 233 as compared
with totals OF 286 last week. For the
corresponding week OF last year the
figures were 200.

WHEN YOU VISIT BOSTON,
Boston and Maine Trains will Leave You
in New Station.

Boston, Mass, june IL The
work Of building Athe new station
of the Boston & Maine railroad goes on
apace, and has already resulted in trans
forming large space Of water, some
thing about two acres in extent, into a
solid foundation: for about half score of
railroad tracks,
The work has been going on since the
middle of February, and the indications
at present are that it will be completed
by the latterpart of August
There are about 400 men employed in
that work alone, and the imagination
\ can picture how much work force of
the space of four or five months.
Between the Lowell and Fitehburg
tracks the space is now filled in up to
the Charles river drawbridges, and there
a new turntable is being fitted up, which,
when completed, will prevent the neees-
sity of, running the local engines out to
Prison pointin order to turn and get into
the station in their reversed position.
The work on the new baggage rooms
of the Union station is progressing rapid
ly,, and it is expected thatnli the tracks
on the outer portion of the depot, they
will be ready for use about the middle or
latter part of August. s. . = &
The tower is being pushed forward
with considerable speed, and when that
is completed the trains for the entire
section will come in on that side of the
depot and the work of construction will
be commenced on the other side, next
