HYDROFOBIA.
a Calf Attacked by Rabies Productivity a
Mad Dogs Bite.

a Calf Attacked by Rabies Productivity a
Mad Dogs Bite.
Three weeks ago yesterday mad
dog bit Jersey calf belonging to Mr..
Hughes of THE STATESMAN. The
calf was at once weaned and put in q
secure stable where it has been closely
watched ever since. The little thing
grew fat, the bites healed nicely, and
it was believed no serious result
would follow. On Wednesday even
ing, however, the calf was noticed
rubbing,her nose where the worst bites
were inflicted and examination show
ed them and others to be swelling.
Thursday night she refused her milk
and again Friday morning, and then
it was discovered that she was show
ing other signs of approaching rabies,
such as slight shuddering or convul-
sions, standing with her head down,
irritability and slight soldering. To
study the case, she was closely watch
ed and it was intended to let her live
until this morning. But as darkness
settled down last night she began to
exhibit signs of fright, bleating pite-
ously, and to end her misery she was
destroyed.
At the time the calf was bitten two
COWS rushed to her rescue and al
though no marks could be found on
them, it was feared they might have
been bitten. Up to this time they
have exhibited no signs Of rabies,
though they will be closely watched
and the milk is not being used.
This calf had the best of treatment
and development of rabies demon
strates conclusively that the dog was
mad. He was a vicious brute and
had the run of the city all day, biting
dogs and other animals right and left
and was biting dogs on the Avenue
when the officers killed him. Hydro
phobia may be looked for now, and
owners of domestic animals cannot be
too careful in handling them, and the
police department should lay in a
goodly stock of strychnine and sau-
sage and distribute it where it will do
most good. One human life is worth
more than all the dogs in cristendom.

GERMANY,
THE FINANCIAL SITUATION

THE FINANCIAL SITUATION.
BERLIN, May 19.-The firm of
which the late Baron Bleichroeder,
the famous nnancier and friend of
Prince Bismarck, was chief and which
still holds leading place in German
finance, states in an interview that
Germany is aghast at the falling
prices in America. 1t was expected
that an increase of business and con-
sequent rise in prices would follow
the opening Of the Worlds fair. The
only apparent reason for the
bad condition of affairs in Amer
lea Is the unsettled condition
of the silver question and the absence
In America OF a state bank similar to
that of Germany. Both Germany and
England would be glad to have the
silver question settled by the Brus-
sells monetary conference, or in any
other way. Germany, however, will
not adopt bimetalism. Germany owes
it's influential position to q sound gold
policy. The key to the present posi-
ton lies In London. 1t was added in
an expression OF opinion by Bleis-
chreeder that his firm did not regard
the proposed Intervention of the Bank
of England In aid of Australian banks
with favor, and thought the expedient
would result more unfavorably than
in the case OF the Barings.

WEEKLY TRADE REVIEW
R. G. Dun Co. on the Condition Of the
Business of the Country.

BUSINESS OF the country
NEW YORK, May 19.-R. q. Dun &
Co g Weekly Review says:
Stocks rally from extreme depres-
sion but business shows DO su6styn-
tial improvement. Distributions of
products to final consumers are rather
less encouraging, though the weather
has been generally more favorable
and at some points helps retail trade.
Wholesale business and speculation
show each week more hesitation with
regard to crops next fall, possibilities
of tariff changes and money uncer-
tainties. Some large failures and
many of minor Importance show the
effects of increasing stringency in
money markets and while money is
comparatively easy here the pressure
at other points is increased. Almost
everywhere collections are slow and
doubt about the future affects new I'M
dertakings, although the present vol
ume of trade based upon pasd orders
is remarkably large.
The treasury is III stronger posi-
tion than for some weeks rast, but ex-
ports of gold are not noticeably in
creased. Exports of products in
April in value were only SIC, 1912, $50, a
decrease of more than $500, 900,
while imports were $84 ,991 ,092, an in
crease of Sc, 100000, so the excess of
imports for the month were 1885,
412, and for four months of the current
year $86,239,918. In two weeks
of May the exports were
but slightly decreased while
imports have been $6,2O0,000 greater
than last year. In such conditions it
is not strange that large amount of
gold has gone abroad this week and
So, 500 900 has been ordered for ship
ment.
The extraordinary bank failures in
Australia, involving deposits already
amounting to more than 1920, 600,
of which over $122,000,0t0 ara due
British depositors, cause much realiz'
ing on securities and merchandise.
the effects of which are felt in Ameri-
can markets. Nevertheless, stocks
have been decidedly stronger this
week, with healthy American buying

at st. Joe trade is Improving; at

YES; at Knoxville trade is sluggish; at
Memphis quiet, and at Nashville
somewhat better. At Augusta there
is no improvement; at Columbus trade
ID little off and money tight, hut at
Atlanta business is satisfactory;
Macon reports moderate trade; cotton
is depressed at New Orleans; trade is
quiet with much apprehension of
floods, sugar is weaker and money in
increasing demand.
Wheat is l IL lower with sales of
23, 900, 900 bushels for the week; corn is
1-8 and oats 1-2 lower, pork products
slightly higher, ard cotton I'M
changed.
While the great industries are well
employed thus far, orders for the
future are growing more scanty. The
iron trade is weaker, Southern forced
sales depressing the price. No inn
provement is seen in bar iron, and COM
petition depresses plates, Pittsburg
having taken contracts at amazingly
low prices, while structural iron is
lower than ever. Failures for the
week are 247 in the United States
against 296 same week of last year,
and IA in Canada against 23O last
year.

the Market.
NEW ORLEANS, May 19.-McElroy
& Gilbert say:
Futures-Liverpool closed 1.64 high
ar than yesterday at p. m. for the
Whitsuntide holiday and will not re-
OPEN until next Wednesday morning.
AS that market is the one holding the
great bulk of the visible supply, 1t is
not likely that there will be much &C.
tivity during the time that it remains
closed. Although our market has
been dull, by reason of absence OF
Liverpool orders, both for spoIs and
futures prices have remained steady,
and this in the face OF. another
fall in the river at Cairo and
stationary river at Memphis and
Natchez, prices closed practically the
same as yesterday. The weather is
becoming warmer and is very bright
and dry, giving farmers just the OPP
portunity they want for cleaning their
crops. There is fair, long interest in
the market, and it would not be sur
prising if stockholders should become
discouraged by the prospect of a fall
In the river all along the line, and
continuance of present dry weather.
AS the growing season advances the
demands upon interior banks for the
cultivation of the crop increase, and
the stocks of spot cotton now being
held are necessarily being liquidated
to keep the banks in funds to supply
their farming customers. -,
The comparatively large receipts at
this port which, we predicted last
week still continue, the total for all
ports today being 600, against 1000
last year, and there is expected here
tomorrow 21OO against 1000 last year
and 3400 at all ports year ago.
There was a fair demand for spots
today with sales of 1900 by factors and
$50 to arrive. Quotations have been
marked down 1-16c.
