seems evident that local influences exist
which tend to moderate in and about the
city, the sever cold which Is experience
ed at other places within a radius Of 100
miles or else it is merely a chance escape
and in either case it is sincerely appreci-
ated. The week which ended last Sat-
urday, was an extraordinary one, the
temperature being ISL degrees in all
above the average for the same week in
the past twenty years. The temperature
last Sunday, too, was extraordinary.
Taking the temperature for each day in
each month for twenty years and adding
them together, thus-January l, 1874 to
1894, and so on with every day in jan
uary, and then on through the twelve
months-adding each set of twenty tom
peratures together and dividing by
twenty, the number of years-gives the
average temperature of each day of the
year for twenty years, and it is found
that January IA has the coolest average,
at just zero. Last Sunday, January IA,
was about 20 degrees above the average
making it altogether an extraordinary
day for what has been distinguished for
twenty years by the coolest average tenn
perature. AS will be seen by to-day's
weather bulletin, the temperature yes.
terday was % degrees above the average
for the same day in twenty years. Al
together, the temperature has been
marked by some pronounced variations
from normal.

AND now the Worlds Fair fire has
worked out another row. and the loca-
ton of the blame is busying every news
paper in Chicago. It is said the blaze
was started by tramps, who occupied
n Of the buildings, and it is wanted to
be known who was responsible for the
tramps, or rather, who was to blame that
they we're not kept out. The Worlds
Fair will probably bea dim recollection
of the past, when the blame will be fin.
ally located, to the satisfaction Of every
one.

IT begins to look as though the city
council would not have another meeting.
At any rate, not until some of the alder
men experience a decided change of
heart. Last night was but a repetition
of the experiences of regular meeting
nights for the last two or three months.
-Four aldermen we're present and four alb.
sent, and there was an enforced adjourn.
ment for lack of a quorum. It is difficult
to see what is to be gained by the alder
men who absent themselves. 1t certain
ly can be no satisfaction to them to
know that men who have worked in
good faith for the city, and who now &C.
tually need the money which is due them
from the city, cannot secure what is
owed them, justly. The city should be
fair in its dealings, as would be ex-
pected of any individual who had con-
tracted debts for labor performed. It
is no more excusable on the part of the
city, than it would be on the part of an
individual. Could the city not issue
warrants-were it unable to pay the
claims against it, it would be I'M
fortunate and not a matter Of wrong
doing. But when the city is in a posi-
ton to issue warrants on which some
cash can be realized. and does not do it
merely because the council does not
choose to meet, it is neither|just O
right, and the aldermen who refuse to
meet are not doing their duty as cisy
officials.

HENRY C1Ews weekly business review
says: Such a paralysis of production as
has existed for the last six months is en-
tirely incompatible with supplying the
current wants of consumption. Care
fully compiled information gathered by
one of the commercial agencies from
thousands of firms and corporations
shows that, for the last six months, the
contraction of sales by manufacturers has
been much more than double that of
merchants, and that, in some important
branches of trade, the curtailment of re-
tail sales has been comparatively nomi-
nal. The amount of imported merchan-
disc going into consumption at this port,
during the last half of 1893, was sS4,OOO,-
COO less than for the same time of 1892,
which amounts to a decrease of 80 per
cent; while, for the two last months, the
reduction averaged 36 per cent. The
facts show that, although the reduction
in the supply of goods coming through
Importation has not quite equaled that
which has occurred in domestic sources
Of supply, yet the curtailment even in
this department is in nearly double the
ratio of the decline that is shown by
Dunn's statistics 10 have occurred in the
sales direct to consumers. This process
of contraction at the sources of supply,
to an extent SC entirely disproportioned
to the actual consumption, and extend
ing yer more than six months, cannot
fail to have produced a depletion of
stocks of merchandise virtually unpre-
cedented. Merchants whose opinion is
entitled to respect, tell us that, in the
leading branches of trade, the stocks of
to-days do not exceed a three weeks
consumption at the present curtailed
rate. These facts have certainly this
much OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES else they
may imply-that there must be an i'm
mediate considerable resumption of pro-
duction; and that such resumption, if
c~onservatively adjusted to the demand,
can be undertaken with a reasonable
prospect of proft-for the relation of
supply and demand is entirely in favor
of the manufacturer. This conclusion is
borne out by the process of resumption
of work in iron works, in textile factories
and in their industries, which is becom-
ing more marked every day.

Its Observance in Assembly's Pr ,,re-
rian and E St. Baptist Sunday-schools.
Rally day was appropriately celebrated
yesterday by the scholars. teachers, and
officers of the Assembly's Church Sunday
school.
All the scholars gathered in the main
schoolroom and the pastor, Rev. George O..
Little. D. D., reviewed the lessons of the last
quarter. At the conclusion OF the review two
of the Sunday-school boys. Masters Lamson
and Klmball. sang duet. Supt. McBath
announced that rollcall was next on the pro-
gramme. and Secretary Shane proceeded to
call the classes and names.
Out of a total membership Of about 300. III
responded yesterday. and the superintendent
was much pleased at the success OF rallying
day in bringing out such large number OF
scholars. The prospects are favorable for a
continuous and steady growth of Assembly s
school, and it is thought that on the next
rallying day the number OF pupils who re-
spond to the rolicall will be twice as large as
that of yesterday.
The Sunday-school of Street Baptist
Church is one of the largest and most success
full institutions of Its character in Washing
ton. There are at present more than 800
pupils enrolled and nearly all OF them were
present yesterday when rallying day was OBJ
served.
The exercises were of the same general
character as those in other schools, and con-
sisted of a review of last quarters Sunday
school lessons by the superintendent. a short
talk explaining the objects of observing the
day, and calling the roll. There was also
singing of several Gospel choruses by the
school.
Upon the conclusion of roll-call it was found
that more than two-thirds of the entire men,
bership, including several classes of elderly
ladies and gentlemen, had responded, and
Supt Richards declared it was among the
largest gatherings in the history of the Z
Street Baptist Sunday-school.
