WEEKLY TRADE REVIEW. The Outlook for Business Varied
 and Unsatisfactory.
LOW PRICE OF COTTON
Affects the South-Iron Market Steady-Bank Clearings Off.
 Failures for the Week.

NEW YORK, Oct. 26.-Bradstreet's to- morrow will say: Merchants interviewed in various portions of the country report in some instances the condition of business as not having realized anticipations, and at other points that the recent bright outlook for trade is modified. Such advices are based in part on the practical conclusion of the fall trade and always on the demand for holiday goods.
 Dealers in dry goods, clothing, shoes, hats and a few other lines have had rela- lively the more satisfactory volume of busi- ness, though in many instances fault has been found with the totals shipped. Gen- eral trade continues checked throughout some portions of the regions supplied by Kansas City, St. Louis, Omaha, Minneap- oils and St. Paul, due to unseasonably warm weather.
 At the south low prices for cotton con- tinue to affect business unfavorabiy, many large merchants being more cautious as to granting credits to interior merchants.
 Throughout large portion of the region between Ohio and the northwest interior jobbers will continue to carry small stocks throughout the winter. Eastern dry goods jobbers report only low cost goods moving 
 settlement of the Fall River strike less favorable.
 Among southern cities Charleston Chat tanooga and Savannah say trade is less en- couraging, while at Memphis, Augusta, Birmingham aud Jacksonville no new features have been developed within the week. Sales, however, have improved in some lines in Atlanta. At New Orleans the volume of sales has improved very slightly, the lower price of cotton, sharp revision of credits and hand-to- mouth purchases being specified as causes.
 Total bank clearings throughout the United States for six business days endin g with Thursday, this week, amount to 1912. 1000, ,O00, against 1850, 900, ,OoO last week, decrease oI about 3 5 per cent, and as com pared with $919 1000, ,000 in the correspond- ing week of last year, a loss of about b of 1 per cent. But when compared with the total of the like week in October, 1892, the decrease Is seen to be $25S, 1000 or 22 per cent.
 Business failures throughout the United States this week number 221, against 253 last week and as compared with 829 in the like week of 1893, 220 in 1892 and 205 in 1891,

OF short sentences spoken in concert,
accompanied with movements of the
hands and body, as signals are given
by the teacher on piano or bell. The
words or sentences to be spoken are,
I'VE give our heads and our hearts to
our country! One country! One
language! One flag! The idea of
this salute is to impress the little citi-

adoption, as well as its language and
its flag. We will, in a day or two,

there's Many Slip 'Twixt the Cup
and the Lip" .'

There was quite an exciting time in
Starr Valley yesterday in which A.
L. Snider, the teacher of the Starr
Valley school, bore very discredit-
able part. From what we can learn
OF the affair it seems that he and a
prominent young rancher of the Val
ley were suitors for the hand of the
same young lady, and that Mr.. Sni-
der was determined to marry her
against her wishes. He had already
made some ofthe arrangements neces-
sary to cosummate his scheme when
he was checkmated by the young
rancher who had planned an elope-
ment with the young lady. But the
course of true love. old bachelors are
told, never runs smooth, and such
proved the case in this affair. In
order to carry out the elopement the
young lady was to visit a Unknown
rancher in the valley yesterday and
remain with them until the arrival of
No. 2 this morning when she and her
lover were to come to Elko and be
married. ...
The young lady arrived in Deeth on
schedule time in buggy driven by
her persistent sutton and in company
with another young lady started on
foot for the residence of the rancher
where she was to spend the night.
But before arriving at the house
they were overtaken by the aforesaid
persistent sutton who by threats that
he would kill her and then himsslf,
compelled the young lady and her
friend to get in his buggy and drove
off toward his intended mother-in-
laws house. The young lady's
friends being notified of the threats
and the actions of their school teach
er, started in pursuit and overlook
the young man before he arrived at
the house, and by the use of Language
more forcible than polite, led him to
see the error of his ways.
On arriving at the house, a CONSUL
tation was held by the young lady's
friends with her mother and she was
permitted to name the young man of
her choice, which, it is needless to say,
was not the man who sought to win
hen by wading through blood. The
young lady received her mothers
blessing and left her parental home
happy in the thought that she could
we'd the man of her choice.
Thus again it is proved that There's
many a slip 'twixt the cup and the
lip"
