Worlds Fair Medals.

"A good deal of disturbance has been Gre
ated and some scolding has been INDUCED in

position won medals or diplomas and who
now find by a strict construction of the law
under which the prizes were awarded they
are liable to imprisonment in the peniten-
tiary it for the information of the public
they publish pictures of the diplomas or
medals which they have won.
The law as it stands was drawn at the sug-
gestiOn Of Director General Davis, who had
no other idea in making the suggestion than
the preventing of exhibitors who had won
no distinction by their exhibits from claim
ing medals or diplomas, and thus deceiving
the public. He had not thought of depriv-
ing any honest and successful exhibitor of
the full use and publicity of his advertise
ments of the medals and diplomas which the
merits of his wares had gained.
But in drawing the law the mistake was
made Of depriving the prize-winner of
whatever benefit his diploma might be to
him in advertising his manufactures. He
can have his diploma framed and hung up
In his parl0r and can keep his medal locked
nothing more. Such is, at least, the con-
struction the attorney general puts on the
law.
1t is outrageous to impute any criminal in
tent to those who have used for advertising
purposes the recognition their goods have
ton that has been held, and it is right and
proper that the public should know whose
goods entitled their maker to such recogni-
ton. The crime, if there be any, is only the
technical violation of clause in a law which
was put there through an error. It is quite
likely that the law will be amended so that
those who won prizes may let the world
know it, giving such evidence of the fact
as may fairly be demanded Chicago Record,

Touching this matter, a neat circular has
been issued by the Whitman Agricultural
Co., of St. Louis. This Company received

New YORK, June 1S--Following is
what Bradstreet's weekly review OF
trade says:
"Of more important eastern cities the only
one noting an Improvement Is Pittsburoh,
where sales have been stimulated by warmer
weather. At Philadelphia the textile indus-
tries report sluggish demand In the
south there are five cities at which
merchants are said to have en-
joyed some Improvement In bust
ness. Jacksonville declares collections are
better, and at New Orleans and Memphis the
demand for staple goods is increased In grocer
les and dry goods. Nashville regards the out
look Tor the fall improved, but admits rain is
needed. AT the manufacturing centers,. At
lanta and Augusta. mills are reported fairly
active. Needed rains In southern Texas are
said to have stimulated demand from iobbers
at many points.
Of Improvement in business are to be perceived,
except those telegraphed from Omaha, Chi
cag0 and Detroit. Activity at the Nebraska
metropolis Is showing itself in increased de-
mand for money. Recent advices are that
wheat and oats crops In that state will be
small but that OF corn heavy
There is no Improvement from the depres-
ut Cleveland, Cincinnati, Milwaukee and ST.

and goods are being moved In the valleys
small fruit crops will be lost, owing to lack OF
transportation. Trade at San Francisco is fair
only, the wheat export business being at a

The large return tide Of Scandina-
Wan emigration from this country to
the peninsular Kingdoms is exciting
remark. The race is frugal and in
dustrious, and a few years residence
in the United States enables many Of
them to accumulate enough to main
tain themselves in aft1uence in their
old homes, where the cost Of living is
low. They can live like princes there
upon what would be regarded here as
barely competence.

fighter, who was gored to death under
shadows Of the Spanish capital has
served as an illustration of the de-
generacy Of modern Spain. The church
lent solemnity to the occasion by be-
ing represented by priest who ad-
ministered the last rites to the dying,
while other matadors knelt down in
cory dust. After these ceremonies
were over the fighting in the ring was
resumed. Spain is in need not only of
