WEEKLY TRADE REVIEW.
Sublime Faith In the fulure Gives Business
an Upward Tendency.

NEW YORK. MAY a-R G. Dun a. Co.'s
Weekly Review OF Trade says IL II now,
as it has seen for nearly year. the
amazement Of intelligent observers
that the United states suffer. so little
from rsverses which 9th r lands share,
but which fall more heavily here than
anywhere else.
With numerous riots, strikes Of thou
sands OF men In various emplOyments,
stoppage Of many manufacturing works
ia consequence. arrest OF traffic on several
great railroads by lawless proceedings,
and the tramplng of DISCONTINUED men, in
all mum bering several thousand, toward
the national capital Ia the hope OF control
ling legislation; the lowest price ever
known for wheat and almost the lowest
prices ever known for oommod ties as a
whole, exports Of 6 400, 900 gold. instead OF
abpormally cheapened products. and the
fall OF the treasury gold reserve below the
slO0, OOO, 900 limit are significant Of wide
spread difficulty.
Yet, the volume Of business is but 3l.S
per cent lsss than year ago. In some
directions signs OF improvement appear
even now, aud the sublime faith Of the
people IN their future Is shown la the
general belief that strikes and disorders
will quickly disappear.
The shoe industry. which has fallen be-
hind the shipments Of last year only l2
per cent In April, is somewhat less active
than OF late, but fair business is re-
ported In heavy shoes and some improve
ment in the demand for women's wear.
Another point OF encouragement is the
heavy buying Of wool, amounting TO
6,492 600 pounds for the week at three
chief markets, AGAINST 4, ,66l 900 last year
The most enrourag syn Is the
marked decrease in liabilities OF firms
failing which were only sl, 44s la for the
last week OF April and for four weeks
O., To-. 70s, Of which s3,722, 22O were Of

Expected 10 Soon Disappear.

NEW YORK, May 5-Ths annexation of
the town OF Gravesend TO the city Of
brooklyn, which went into effect yester-

the famous seaside resort, Consy Island,
which was the citadel Of the kingdom Of
John Y. Mc4.ane
Coney Island proper contains Manhat-
tan beach with its two mammoth hotels,
Brighton beach and West Brighton. the
latter being the popular section Of the
island and containing numerous small
hotels, liquor saloons without number,
variety shows, concert halls and the
thousand and one attractions. 1t con.
tains also street known as "The
Bowery," which Is largely composed of
dives. Here vice, In some places, runs
riot, unhampered by law and protected
by the officers OF the peace.
Sunday is the great day Of the week,
the saloons are In full blast, the dance
halls hold open sway, and the excise Jaw
is dead letter Everything went during
the McKane regime, except injunctions
Now that the city authorities control
Coney Island il Il expected that all this
will be changed. The Brooklyn police
department will blot out the dives, regu-
late the dance halls and endeavor TO
drive out the thieves who prey upon the

be closed and the saloons will not be per-
mitted 10 iaunt themselves in the faces Of

MORE HOPEFUL.

The Financial Review today says the
condition Of business is more hopeful,
the main grounds Of the attitude being.
I. The wcarying discussion Of the
tariff question is apparently nearing its

come law, and Ia form much more sat

the industries and the trade of the
country will bcrcleascd from the bonds
of suspense that have kept both idle for
the last twelve months

NARROW AND WIDE GAUGE.

il has been quietly limited here and
there among the members Of the City

effort would be made 10 alter the terms
of the 2O-yoar franchise net between the
Pawtuckct Street Railway aud the city

Of course ia the interest of the railroad
corporation, as usual, and the city or

slide the matter through.
The city has made contract with
the railroad people good for 20 years at
their own terms, and now 10 modify il

The killing of man in Boston by
the electric cars should be just as much
needed as If il occurred in Pawtucket.
That the electric cars are capable Of
doing such havoc uncquipped os they
are 10y any life saving device, shows
that il is time such action was taken
10y our City Council as will protect the
lives of people who have to use the
highways of our city where electric
cars are in operation.

A Special Fire System for the Railroad
Buildings.
Before the beginning of the strike the
Southern Pacific Company had main
tanned an efficient fire department, which
was composed OF q large number of the
more athletic young men working in the
shops. Since the strike was inaugurated
the shops have been without adequate
fire protection.
To prevent the possible destruction oi
property by fire, the city has located the
Clapp-Jones relief engine and hose cart
In the south end of the machine shop.
The railroad shops, with their valuable
property, have been constituted district,
and Richard Heinrich has been appointed
District Engineer. The rest of the crew
is as follows: Engineer, AL. Heinrich;
engine driver, Steve. Butler, Jr.; hose
cart driver, Seth Wilson; extramen.
Frank Casebolt, James Rodgers, j. @.

The fire signals are sounded by the
large whistle over the immense boilers
that furnish steam for the operation of the
machinery in the shops. "
The alarm stations are located as fol-
lows: Two whistles, car repair shop;
three whistles, boiler shop; four whistles,
locomotive machine shop; five whistles,
car shops; six whistles, lumber yard:
seven whistles, foundry.
The general alarm is sounded by one
