Condition of Trade.

The great strike of coal miners has
ended at most points, but another
threatens to interrupt business more
seriously for time, though the number
of hands engaged is comparatively small.
Travel and traffic are we'll nigh arrested
on about twenty Western roads already,
and strikes are threatened on all roads
which use Pullman cars. AS the public
and the railroads leasing the cars have
no power to say what wages shall be
paid at the Pullman shops, and the
receipts Of that company from the
railroads do not depend on the running
Of leased cars, 1t is difficult to calculate
how long so peculiar a strike may last,
or how far it may extend. On the
whole, other changes during the week
have been for the better Many manu-
featuring establishments which were
stopped by want of fuel have resumed.
The depletion of the Treasury reserv,
has been checked by the voluntary
deposits of gold by New York banks.
Exports of gold have almost ceased.
Congress has made much progress
toward final disposition of the tariff
question. Crop prospects grow better
as tie harvest draws nearer.
The resumption of work in mines and
mills has made good progress, but the
demand for products is as yet smaller
and less urgent than was expected.
Buyers apparently wait for lower prices
of iron and steel products, which manu-
facturers are slow to give, in view of
the increased cost of materials and
production. After q suspension of half
the working force for more than
month. it was expected that orders for
products would be very large, but
instead there is general complaint of
dullness and narrow demand, and prices
of Bessemer pig and some finished
forms are a little weaker. Although
the working force has evidently
increased, several establishments have
stopped for want of orders, or because
no settlement regarding wages for the
coming year has yet been reached.

It contains all the instruments and classi- fications of the ordinary military band, with several additions. which permit of attaining novel effects, and the two stringed doubled passes soften the rich organ-like tones to remarkable de- gree. The softest orchestral perfection is well attained, and every shade of ex- pression and coloring Is produced with marvellous success. while all the mili- tary brilliancy and precision of attack sudden concussion, and startling climax are retained. It was generally agreed that Innes' band made the greatest popular success of the many organiza- tions that played at the Chicago worlds fair, and sol pronounced was this popularity that MT.
