The Dying Year Leaves Only Dismal
Business Record

business RECORD,
New YORK, December Or. G. Dun
& Compsny's weekly review Of trade
says under the caption "The New Year."
"Stsrting with the largest trade ever
known, mills crowded with work and oil
business stimulated by high hopes, the
year 1893 has proved, in sudden shrink
age Of trade in commercial disasters and
depression Of industries, the worst for
fifty years. Whether the final results Of
the panic Of 1887 were relatively more
severe the scsnty records for thRt time
do not clearly show. The year closes
with prices Of many products the lowest
ever known, with millions Of workers
seeking in vain for work, and with char
ity laboring to keep back suffering and
starvation in all our cities. All hope the
New Year may bring brighter days, but
the dying year leaves only a dismal
record. The review Of different depart
ments Of trade given to day exhibits a
collapse of industry and business which
is almost without precedent. The iron
industry sustained q weekly production
of 18l, ,551 tons pig iron May l, but by o.
tober l, the output had fallen to 73 1856
tons, and the recovery to about 100000
December l, still leaves 40 per cent. Of
the force unemployed. Over half the
Woolen manufacture is idle and expect
ing a brief recovery in November, has
been ever since new wool in May for sll
sales at the three chief markets in the
eight months have been but 106,705, 400
pounds, partly for speculation, the price
having fallen 20 per cent. for fleece to the
lowest point ever known, against 212,,
339,003 pounds in the same months last
year. Sales Of cotton goods are fully
quarter below the usual quantity. The
small advance attempted in boots and
shoes a year ago was not sustained, but
with prices ss low as ever, the shipments
Of boots and shoes from Boston are "a
per cent. less than last year in Decem-
Der, and though in November the de-
crease was but 1923 per cent, it has
been % per cent. for the past four
months. Not only manufactured goods
as whole, but the most important farm
products are so low that the producers
find little comfort. Official and other re-
ports give the notion that the crops Of
last year were 80 short that famine
prices could be realized on purchases.
Enormous stocks were bought and held
with the aid Of banks till heavy receipts
in the spring caused a collapse Of wheat,
pork and cotton poole Disastrous fall
ures helped to produce the alarm which
soon made money impossible to get, but
even at the worst hour of the panic,
prices were scarcely lower than they are
now.

NEW YORK's POOR.
Even Mr.. DepeW DeplOres the Stu
alton,

RblOus
New YORK, Dec. 3O.-The widespread
distress among the unemployed OF New
York, now estimated to number 100000,
with 100000 additional dependent upon
their lsbors for support, to-day inspired
ChaunCey M. Depew to pass this COM
ment upon the condition Of the country:
II have been through all the panics of
the last thirty years, but l have never
seen one in which the distress was so
widespread and reached so many people
who previously had not been affected az
this panic OF 1893. It has thrown over
1000, 900 people out Of employment; and
calculating five persons, which is small
estimate, to family, that means 10000
600 people with no bread winner among
them and no possibility of winning
bread"
Mr.. Depew was addressing this opin-
ion to conference Of the trustees OF
thirty-four hospitals which are members
Of the Hospital Saturday and Sunday
association, who were In session to devise
means Of relief for the poor.
Mr.. Depew declared that there is
urgent need Of immediate relief from
any source that could grant it. II is
expected that an appeal signed by Mr..
Depew and other notable men will be
issued in day or two inviting subscrip-
tions.
The committee of fifteen appointed at
the meeting Of trades unionists called on
Mayor Gilroy to confer with him on the
condition Of the unemployed, and to
enlist his aid in their behalf. DR.. Stan
ton Colt acted as spokesman. He asked
that some provision be made by the city
to give work TO the idle. The mayor re-
piled that he would do all in his power
to help those willing to work.
The city could give out work to many,
but 1t could not give work to cloak
makers. Neither could tho city give
work to all the unemployed. He sug-
gested the appointment OF o sub-com.
mittee to talk the matter over with him,
and that course was pursued. Later q
subcommittee Of Eve saw the mayor.
No conclusion was reached at the second
conference. One committeeman thought
the mayor might authorize public Inn
provement in this sxigency and provide
the money, depending on the good
nature Of the legislature to legalize his
action. he cited the instance Of the
purchase Of Fire Island by Governor
Flower. The mayor said the PROPOSE
lion was against the Law and common
sense.
just before the committee Of trades
unionists called on the mayor there was
almost . riot among the crowd Of poor
persons who assembled Rt The had

day. Cotton was lifted q cent, with &C.
counts Of scarcity in September, but has
lost most Of the gain and sells below

Oy preventing the sale Of products, have
proved q great injury to farmers, at 6
time when their enforced curtailment oI
purchases is disastrous TO all other in
dustEies.
"Money anxisties appeared to cause
the panic, and became epidemic when
doubts were raised in April about re.
demption OF the treasury notes in silver
Western banks had given reason for dis
trust by connection with real estate
produce and stock ventures. Deposits
in national banks alone decreased in five
months nearly $500, 100000. Purchases
for consumption shrunk so much, SC

ings reduced, wages and business of all
kinds Wereso decreased that the Rccum-
ulstion Of idle money became the
greatest ever known, exceeding 5000, ,0O0,-
600 in New York. The transactions
through all clearing houses outside Of
New York in January were 1875 per cent.
larger than last year and 65 per cent.
larger in the first quarter; slightly larger
in the second quarter; 81 per cent.
smaller in the third quarter and % per
cent. smaller in the last quarter.
"Clear evidence of the shrinkage in
different branches Of business is af-
forded by answers already received 10
several thousand circulars requesting
figures Of sales during the last half of
1898 and 1892. Full information Of the
results will be given hereafter, but re-
turns of textile goods already show sales
amounting to S43,S43,S77 this year
against e70,347.SS2 last year because Of
a decrease Of 27 per cent.
"Iron returns thus far aggregate S40,-
S52, ,1SO, against S65,52O,921 last year; q
decrease Of 3S per cent. Reports thus
far Of jewelry show q decrease Of 80 per

goods, 20 per cent. of hats, %. per cent;
Of hardware, 10 per cent; Of shoe manu-
fScturss Is per cent, and by hat dealers,
8 per cent, and Of clothing, 10 per cent.
"It is curious that the only trade
showing an increase is in groceries, the
aggregate sales being l per cent. larger
than in the last half Of 1893. In thirty
eight years, covered by the records Of
this agency, the number OF failures has
only once risen above 1850 in q year.
In 1893 the number reported has been
1850. The aggregate Of the the lia-
bilities in all failures reported has in six
years risen above S2O0OOO,000, and this
year the strictly commercial liabilities
alone have exceeded 1891 ,422 $50, the
liabilities Of banking and financial Ingti-

We publish the above as food for the

the inhuman treatment Of the paasantry

not only France, but ell Europe, ran red

SeIinsgrove's Latest Sensation.

For some time man named
Smith of Lancaster, has been pay
ing devoted attentions to young
widow of Selinsgrove. The meet
ings of this pair were long aud num-
erous, and the young widow was
led to believe that Smith intended
to marry her. Smith promised to
meet his prospective bride ut Port
Trevorton last Monday. 1t was ar
ranged that Smith should come there
by himself and the young widow
should drive down from Selinsgrove.
The plan was thus executed except
that another lady accompanied the
young widow. The widow obtained
per mission from Smith to introduce
her friend. Smith consented. You
can imagine Smiths CONSERVATION
and Indignation when the lady rails.
ed her veil and he recognized his
own wife.

Modern journalism.

Of all the "streaks" in modern
journalism, the Selinsgrove reporter
to the Phila. Press is phenomenon.
The latest marvellous development
is that which characterizes him as
an "old time" reporter. The account
of the attempt to murder and rob
Jacob Ludwig, which we published
two weeks ago appeared in the Press
eleven days after the tragedy. The
account given by the PosT two weeks
ago was copied and printed in or 3
of its exchanges long before it ap.
peared in the Press. Besides, at
least q dozen other weekly papers
and the Harrisburg daily papers pub
lished accounts of it week before
last. If the Press had been exchang-
ing with the PosT, the former might
have had nearly the same account,
words and all, at least or days
sooner than our weekly exchanges.
We can not exactly blame the Press
for this delinquency, because the re.
porter begins his special with the
words, Quite recently which in
this case signifies eleven days.
Judging from the amount oI
amusement afforded, Il reporter oi
stale news is an expensive one.

The Power of Gold

He loved her.
She loved him.
They loved each other.
But the father objected because
the young man was almost total
stranger.
The time had come when the youth
must ask the father for his daughter,
and he feared to go to him.
He held n long conference with his
beloved.
He told her he did not want to
ask her father.
George, dear she asked in a
tremulous whisper, show much are
you worth p

responded. proudly.
Her face shone in the twilight
"Theh you don't need to ask him,

Early Sunday morning the body
of Daniel Boyer, q prominent farm
er of Jordan township, near Sun
bury, was found in his buggy
in his barnyard. Boyer had been to
Uniontown Saturday night and left
for his home thee miles distant, at
10 O'Clock. He was accompanied by
Elias Bush, a neighbor. Bush
left Boyer within five hundred yards
of the latter s home to go to his own
resid ence.
When Boyer's hired man went out
to the barnyard he found the horse
standing near the stable door and
Boyer's body lying across the seat
with his skull crushed. His watcl
and m oney had not been disturbed
The position Of the wound does
away with any theory of suicide oi
accident. Boyer was wealthy and
is not known to have had any enc

II You Wish to Help the Town

Don't forget the New MiddleburG.
Don't fail TO sound it's prai ses
wherever you are.
Don't make your money out of its
citizens and spend it somewhere
else.
Don't frown on every public inn
provement simply because it will
cost you dollar or two.
Don't sneer at the efforts of your
fellow citizens to build up the town,
but lend a hand yourself.
Don't talk great deal about what
should be done and remain on the
back seat waiting for some one else
to do it.
Don't let a good local paper that
is the town stiring champion
abandon the champion business be
cause of lack of deserved patronage
Don't say the public schools are
failure because your boy has beel
upsetting the schools discipline an,
has been punished for it.
Don't forget that in building u
the town, hearty cooperation, unit
eel endeavor and a spirit of get ther
are what win the day. There is IL
pull like II long pull, strong pu
and pull all together.
