New York, July 2S.-Infiunces affect
ing the course of general trade
throughout the United States during
+, the week have not caused a net gain.
| Without early rains a reduction in the
yield of Indian corn is expected to
be considerable. The outlook for the
yield IN spring wheat states is regard
ed as unfavorab bic. Several thousand
striking miners in Ohio, Indiana and
Alabama refusing to return to work con
tInues to depresS business throughout
tributary regions. Iron, steel and
other Industries are hampered through
out the Pittsburg district for lack of
coke, which keeps prices higher as
well. Continued exports Of gold from
New York is regarded as an unfavor-
able influence, and there are more IN
favorable reports as to mercantile col
lectlonS. More serious in a disorganiZ-
ing effect on general business is the
continued delay of tariff legislation.
Reports state there is a moderate i'm
proyement at larger number of
southern cities than last week. There
is an improved demand for iron and
steel at st. Louis, Pittsburg and other
centers.
Exports Of wheat from the United
States and Canada, both coasts, for
the week amount to 3,3SS,OOO bushels
against 4,363,O 900 bushels a year ago.
There were 237 failures this week,
compared with 400 last year. Advices
from western and northwestern cities
do not show much improvement as to
the feeling or demand for goods.
Omaha, Milwaukee, st. Paul, MinneaD-
oils and Duluth report general trade as
characterized by more than usual mid
summer dullness though at some points
there is a relative gain, due to the res
toration Of railway freight service.

beautiful christian character Nat
ura1ly possessed Of cheerful, SYM

Hay, There, Y on FellOWs!=

Worthington claims to- ship 1858
carloads Of hay annually.
This aggregates A, 295 tons.
Or 147 wagon loads per day for
every week day in the year. FL
Or 18SS loads per hour. :
These 1858 cars would make a
freight train 25 miles long. >...
TO haul this hay it would require a
train Of ten cars every day in the
year, Sundays excepted
To raise this hay it would require
two townships Of land, planted in
nothing but hay. h
How in the world can the denizens
of that thrifty village manage to keep
the hayseed out of their hair? Nh.
4 And they. want to plant the new
court house right in the center Of
Eastwood meadow! Adrian Demo.
.crat. \, @
The Democrat seems astonished at
the volume Of business annually done
at Worthington. For the benefit of
the Democrat, and inquiring friends,
we will say that it is not an uncom-
mon thing for 25O load Of hay to be
brought into Warrington in one
day. We draw trade from ten town
ships in Mobiles county and two in
jackson county, making twelve in all.
AT the least calculation these twelve
townships ought to produce 100000
tons ssof good upland hay. TO
transport this to market would re-.
quire $4,000 cars a train 300 miles
long. But Of course all this land is
not used for hay purpo thousands
Of acres are annually sown to wheat,
fax, oats, barley, etc, while thousands
more produce a No. | corn. This is
what makes w orthington such live
ly, bustling town. For the sake Of
argument we accepted as correct the
figures published in the Democrat
as to the amount Of business done at
Adrian, yet, to our positive know
ledge, they were padded. Can the
Democrat get its station agent to
make an affidavit to the effect that
it's figures were absolutely correct2
If he does the ADVANCE will guarantee
to make a monkey Of that agent.

Benjamin Harrison having been quoted
as saying that President Cleveland has
established a new precedent in sending
federal troops into a state without a re-
quest from the governor of the state
and over his protest, said today:
II have never said what / am quoted
as saying as to the use Of United States
troops by the president, nor do / think
the president has transcribed his pow
ers. On the other hand, believe there
is no spot in the United States where
United States troops may not go under
such orders without asking anybody's
consent, and that the enforcement Of
the laws Of the United States is the
sworn duty Of the president. and the
army is AN appropriate instrument to
use in enforcing these laws where they
are violently resisted and civil officers
are unable to deal with the situation.
If posse comitatus laws limits the presi-
dents constitutional power at all, which
is very doubtful, it only requires
proclamation to precede the use OF
troops. sf
