THE STATE OF TRADE.
Bradstroet's Review of Business for the
Past Week.

Bradstroet's Review of Business for the
Past Week.
NEW York, Sept. 7.-Bradstreet's to-
morrow will say: Special kilograms
from the more important distributing
points make it plain that in mercantile
lines trade is fairly active, fully meeting
early and more favorable anticipations
in great majority of instances and ex-
ceeding them III some. Aside from the
cotton mills strike, and distress in the
northwest during the forest fires, the
week has not brought unfavorable fea-
lures. Staple prices tend upward ex.
cept for wool.
There ia an improved demand for
money at Boston, New York and Chice-
60, but rates are not as high as usual in
the season, nor the supply of CONNER
cial paper az large. Northwestern W heat
carriers have arranged FOR necessary
funds with Chicago banks at 5 per cent.
A striking feature at the west comes
from Chicago, where the business in all
mercantile lines has increased and es-
pecially indigo goods, the total for the
week being the heaviest OF the season,
notwithstanding conservative purchases
in the market by northwestern merch-
ants. This is duplicated at st. Louis,
where there has also been large vol
ume OF ssles. both by jobbers and man
ufscturers, the total for August being
eqnal to that in 1892. Omaha reports
that Nebraska still needs a good deal of
rain and that trade in jobbers is fair
only.
Milwaukee has experienced decided
improvement in demand for goods and
money. while St. Paul reports that de-
struction of mills and lumber property
by fres has decreased purchases in that
market. Minneapolis announces that
the recent good volume of business there
is holding it's own.
Improvement in come lines and
moderate volume of business in others
is characteristic at Kaness City.
San Francisco reports activity in all
lines of business, with ship owners in
control OF the ocean freight market, and
wheat ran up cents for orders for Eu-
rope.
The grand total OF SS,47S,O 900 hushels
of wheat available in the United Statea
and Canada September let is 25 per cent
larger than year ago, and is the heavi
eat stock of wheat ever held on like
date. The increase in American and
OanaOlAu Wnehb btOCK6 IN August WAS
1856, 900 bushels-the largest August
increase on record with the exception of
August, 1892. Wheat stocks ahoat for
and in Europe September 1st amounted
to 63,245,0O0 bushels. Within three
months stocks of wheat in and ahoat for
Europe have decreased 2S per cent.
while those in the United States aud
Canada increased less than 10 per cent.
Exports of wheat, United States and
Canada, boath coasts (Aour included as
wheat) amounted to 3.270,000 bushels
during the six business days ending
with September 9th. In the previous
week the amount was 4,640, 900 bushels,
and in the first week OF fSeptembsr, 1898,
it was 100000 bushels, and in 1892,
1857 900 bushels.
Exports of Indian corn from the
United States have declined to an aver
age of little over 100000 bushels
week, in striking contrast with the
quantities shipped abroad in corre-
spending weeks one, two and three
years ago.
Ali the southern cities report favor
able features.

A HORTICULTURAL journal states that
an attempt will be made to introduce
the durian tree of Siam into Southern
California for general cultivation. The
darian fruit is generally commended ae
Q diuretic and has most delicious
taste, especially is you have bad cold
and can not smell it. If you haven't
got cold, put spiral spring clothes
pin astraddle of your nose before you eat
q durian. We are hardly prepared to
endorse the introduction OF this tree into
Bouthern California. "'Tis better to
endure the ills he have" ETC., and we
shall patriotically content ourselves
with our homegrown garlic and Linn
burger cheese.

If THE next legislature OF Indiana
does not reimburse Governor Matthews
for his outlay of money in suppressing
the railway riots in June, the Hoosier
state will be good one from which to
emigrate. 1t is highly to the governors
credit that lie mortgsged his farm that
he might raise money for the sutpress-
ing OF riots and the restoration OF good
order in the state, but it is also very
disgraceful to the state that such pro-
ceeding should have been necessary.

IT WOULD be no great wonder If the
next house of representatives were Re-
publican by at least 40 majority. For
the past twenty years there has always
been a revulsion in the middle year OF
the Presidents term. In 1874 with
Grant as president, the Democrats car
ried the house by 81 majority. In the
middle OF Arthur's term the Democracy
once more gained control of the house
by "a; and in the middle OF Harrison's
term they upset the majority of 1888
and elected majority OF 148. So look
out for Republican msjority this year.

our VETERAN VISITORS.

The streets are crowded with little
groups of men thronging abont a band
of seventy old men in red shirts and
black trousers. These old men present
picture that can hardly be paralleed
unless one visits the Hotel des Invalides
in Paris and inspects the battle-scsrred
survivors of the once mighty squsdrons
who stormed "the tawny mound of the
Malakoff" as the last cadences of "An-
ME Laurie" died away upon their ears
There was never more gallant host
than the volunteer fire department Of
San Francisco. OF those 1900 men this
little handful of white-hsired men are
the survivors. For sixteen years they
set to the world sublime example OF
honest pride, undimned by arrogance.
and of pure courage unstained by cruel
ty. The greater the danger, the more
men rushed out to offer their lives as
sacrifice to the devouring element. They
embraced men OF all nationalities,
chosen out from every walk of metropol-
itan life, with only one end in view
the defense OF home and life from the
ravages of the flames.
Nearly all the gallant souls whose
heroism CHALLENGED the admiration of
the era in which they lived. have been
laid to their well.merited rest. The
gallant chiefs OF that heroic little army
pass before us in solsmn review as we
write this; and the very walls OF our
little room seem filled with whispers
from the lips that once glowed with
ruddy life but are now mute and cold.
Hosseiross. Duane. Whitney, Lane and
Scsnnell. all the "bravest of the brave"
in their respective eras, have heard the
last alarm and passed into the presence
of the great foreman OF the universe.
Right we'll, kind and generous souls.
did you fulfil the task that your con-
sciences set before you If the story OF
the San Francisco fire department could
be written in proper diction, it would
tell OF heroism as unselfsh as thst OF
the men who fought beside Leonidss at
Thermopyl@, a seli-devotion as grand as
tnhb VI thO OlQ SuhIu WuO lcll Will
Csmbronne at Waterloo. The names of
the men who, in pioneer days, ran wild
de old masheen" are embalmed in the
hearts OF q grateful and loving people;
and the memory of their heroic and un-
selfish deeds only grows the brighter as
we view them through the mist OF re-
ceding years.
So speak kindly to the dear old boys
when you meet them on the streets,
and remember that, in California at
least. the red shirt has always been a
badge of honor. They are not as young
as they used to be when the Monu-
mental bell rang forth the first peal OF
alarm, but their gray hairs mark 70
honor lost nor manhood wasted:
$50 here's to our boyhood,
It's gold and ITS gray;
Its stars in December,
The dews of its Nay
And when were hll done
With our life dealing toy;
Dear Father in heaven,
Take care of the boys"

ACCORDING to the admission OF men
heavily interested in the big sugar trust
that hydra-headed monster has contrib
uted its money, filched from the masses
by tariff legislation, towards the election
funds OF both parties, go long as the
nominees of those parties were friendly
to the trust. This, of course, was done
in the hope of controlling the con-
sciences OF prominent men in both
parties. How long is such a scandal
likely to continue? And what should
be done with the men who bring about
such results or even render them pos
aible?

SAN FRANCISCO. Sept. IA great num-
ber of changes are to take place in the
feet OF the Pacific Coast Steamship com
pany. The steamer Corona will take
the place OF the Mexico, and the latter
will go to Alaska to replace the City OF
Topeka. Or the voyage up, the Mexico
will take cargo of coal for the Tread
way Gold Mining company. On the ar
rival OF the Mexico the City of Topeka
will come to San Francisco to be thor
oughly overhsuled and repaired. The
Pomona will be Withdrawn from the
Humboldt trade, and the Willamette
Valley will take her place. The Pomona
will be laid up and fitted with the How
den system OF forced draught. On the
Atlantic liners this system has given
increased speed on smaller consump-
tion of coal. Should it be success on
the Pomona, all the other ships of the
fleet will be fitted with it. The Queen
will be Withdrawn from the Alaska
trade, and when the changes on the
Pomona have been made she will prob.
ably take the place of the Santa Rosa.
The latter and the Queen will then be
laid up at Sausaiito Tor the winter.
