BRADsTREET,s REPoRT.

NEW YORK, Oct. 19.-Bradstreet' tomor- row will say: With few exceptions the leading features of the business situation this week have been those of continued moderate Improvement, although the total volume of business, so far as indicated by bank clearings throughout the country, will require considerable expansion to compare favorably with corresponding ings for the six business days, ending with October IS, is $949, ,0OO, GOO, or 2.3 per cent larger than in the third week of October last year, but nearly 31 per cent smaller than in the corresponding week in 1892.
 This relative favorable bank clearing re- port is offset in part by decline in prices of staples, coffee alone scoring slight ad- vance. At Louisville tobacco is easy under promise of large crop, and hides are lower in price at some of the more important markets, while leather is quoted lower at western cities. Competition of northern lumber manufacturers has forced down prices at Chicago, ,and all except best grades of live cattle at Omaha and Kansas City have sold for less than @ week ago, while wheat and Indian corn have also shown de- clined. The production of iron and of Bes- semer steel continues as heavy as hereto fore, and quotations have been further shaded. Lard is lower in price, and the prospect for cessation of textile labor difh- culties at tho east has weakened the print cloth market.
 AS serious as any other decrease is that in cotton, the feature of trade south this week being check to the purchases by interior merchants for spring delivery and slower mercantile collections, due to lower prices for cotton.
 Al far southern cities general trade is re- ported to have shown some improvement at Memphis, Jacksonville, New Orleans and Galveston, but at Savannah, Augusta, Atlanta and Nashville increased cotton re- ceipts and lower prices have had aD un- favorable influence. At Charleston, Chat tanooga and Birmingham business is quiet.

A CURIOUS DIsCUssIoN-In some churches
individual cups are used in the Communion
Sacrament, certainly in every respect very
proper departure from old customs. That
any one should take exception to it is beyond
belief; no dogma nor essential point in theol
ogy enters into the matter; it is solely
matter of aesthetics. a question of good taste,
and as such, its discussion falls possibly
within the scope of the secular press. The
medical men have already endorsed the Inc
novation and if they ale not wholly conyin
cling on specifically pathologic grounds, their
suggestions are ola character calculated to
strengthen the position of those who adyo
cate it solely on the grounds of good taste.

but up to this time it has not done 80.
Every year about this time all elem
entin the House makes a great pretense
of wishing to work right along through
the holidays. instead of taking the usu.
al two weeks recess, and every year the
resolution for the recess goes through
both House and Senate as soon as the
proper time arrives. Everybody knows
the singers who presses not to wish to
sing merely that they may be importu'
ned to do so, while they are in reality
just bubbling oyer with a desire to sing.
They are counterparts of the Congress-
men who do not want to take the Christ
mas recess.
A delegation of the United Friends
OF Armenia called at the White House
to see the President about the position
of this country towards the recent out
RACES committed upon Christian Ar
lnenians by Turks, but they did not see
Kr. Cleveland. Private Secretary Thur
Der referred them to Secretary Gaesham.
The action of the Turkish government
in refusing to allow U. s. Consul to
accompany the international commission
which is charged with the investigation
of the Armenian atrocities, has occas-
toned much talk here, but no one has
succeeded inascertaining what Secretary
Gresham thinks of it.
The Indian Territory bill is exciting
much interest in Congress. Elk Senator
Dawes, who was at the head of the Com.

status of things in the territory and rec.
commended Territorial form of govern
ment as remedy, is an active worker
in favor of the bill, and his long exper-
ience in Congress- makes him an intlu-
entail one.

Washington Letter

FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT
WASHINGTON. D. c. December nth, 1894.
The House will unless something not
now expected occurs to upset the pro-
gramme, pass the currency bill this
week, although it it IA matter of doubt
whether there are as many as fifty men,
bers of the House who really favor the
plan embraced in the bill. That may
appear to be a strange statement, but 1t
is none the less true. The bill is going
to be passed by the House, not because
those who will vote for it haye any
faith in it as reform in present curren,
cy laws, but because they as a rnle are
willing to accept it as an experiment,
on the word of Secretary Carlisle that
it will. if 1t eyer becomes a law, prevent
further issue Of tonds, if it does moth
ing else.
1t seems little queer that Of all the
letters received by the House committee
on Banking and Currency on the sub
iect of the currency bill, and hundreds
were received, there was only one-from
the president of National bank at
York, Nebraska-tLa endorsed the
proposed plan. The gold men and the
silver men were united in their opposi-
tion to the proposed plan, if they nev-
er are again, although their reasons for
opposing it were not the same.
The condition of the gold reserve in
the Treasury is playing an important
part in the consideration Of the curren-
cy bill by the House. 1t is down to
sos 100000, and the opinion is heard
on all sides that another issue of bonds
will be necessary before the final ad-
iournment of Congress, if there isn't
SEINE legislation to prevent. But, al
lowing that the currency bill would
stop further issue Of bonds if it were a
law, its passage by the House will not
make it IA law; and it is as certain as
any future legislative event can possibly
be that it cannot pass the Senate at this
session. That's why the present rush
in the House is difficult to understand.
Senator Hills bill for the exclusion
and deportation of alien anarchists,
which was passed by the Senate at the
last session, and is now in the hands OF
the House Judiciary Committee,is likely
to be much amended before it gets
through the House, if it ever does. The
committee has already agreed to amend.
ments combining the power Of deporta-
ton to U. S. Courts, and striking out
the provision for the appointment of
emigration inspectors at foreign po'ts
and providing that the inspection
shall be done by I. S. Consuls.
Senator Proctor, Of Vermont, is usu-
ally classed as millionaire. For that
reason the filing Of a mortgage given by
him on his Washington real estate, to
secure the payment Of $4,000 loaned
him for five yeals at 5 per cent interest,
has caused more or less talk.
The lobby for the Nicaragua canal
bill is concentrating its efforts upon the
House the Senate is regarded as hav =
ing put itself on record too often in
favor of the idea to back ont nov-and
it is clear that it is gaining supporters
for the bill, although it is not yet GER
tain that 1t has gained enough to get
the bill through 1t was said week
ago that the House committee on Rules
had promised to bring in rule setting
