THE CONDITION OF TRADE.

r. G. Dun & Co., in their weekly re-
view Of trade, says: Business continues
unusually active for midsummer, and.
though there Is o percepticible relaxa-
tion, there are no signs of reaction. The
one change of great Importance which
the past week has brought, imminently
helpful, is the snlioable settlement be-
tween coal miners and employers in
Western Pennsylvania, Ohio and In
diana.
It is said that about 100000 men will
have their wages Increased after Octo-
Der 1, by the adjustment, and while the
enlargement Of purchasing power is of
consequence, 1t seems even more inc
portant that chronic cause of contro-
versy has been removed by the new
agreement as to company stores. There
is no important change in crop pros
poets, and at this time no news Is emi-
nently good news.
Speculation has been more successful
in cotton than in any other product dur
ing the past week, and has lifted the
price an eighth. Wheat has declined q
fraction. with very scanty transactions,
the extremely small Western receipts
influencing the market for the present
more than the restricted exports. Corn
tends to lower prices with more encour-
aging prospects, and the expectation Of
heavy corn crop affects prices of pro-
visions, as might be expected.
The industries continue to make pro-
gress, and higher prices for iron and
steel products prove that the supply has
not outrun the demand. Some staple
cotton goods have again advanced in
price. and the market Is unusually
strong for the season. Failures for the
week were 225 in the United States
against 264 last yesr; and 40 in Canada
against 50 last year.

JUSTICE JAoKsoN,s SUCCESSOR.

Advioes from Washington say there
Is much speculation az to President
Oleveland's choice for the United States
Supreme Court bench to succeed the
late Justice Jackson, but beyond the
mention OF available men there Is lit.
tie OF definite nature thus early. 1t
Is the general understanding that no
appointment will be made until after
the meeting OF Congress as the
place Is one of too much import
ance and dignity for recess sp-
pointee to go on the bench and take the
chances of subsequent rejection by the
Senate. There has been no case In the
recent history OF the country where an
appointment has been made to the su-
preme bench during Congressional re-
CESS.
1t ia suggested that the selection is
most likely to be made from the East;
and probably from New York, as Mr..
Cleveland made the last appointment.
that Of Justice White. from the South,
after the Senate had rejected the names
OF Hornblower and Peckham, both of
New York. When the serious ILLNESS OF
Justice jackson was first announced
last spring. gossip mentioned the name
of Mr.. Bissell. then In the cabinet as
the probable successor. The same sug-
gestion Is heard at the present time.
AS usual, when an important place is
TO be filled, the name Of Secretary Gar
Isle ia mentioned, but the general
opinion is that, should Mr.. Cleveland
90 to his Cabinet for an sppoinsee, he is
more likely to consider Mr.. Wilson or
Mir. Smith. The name OF Represents
tive Josish Patterson, of Tennessee,
will probably be called to the attention
OF the President, as he comes from the
State OF the late justice. and Is known
es most loyal friend OF Mr.. Cleveland.
The names OF Don RI. Dickinson and
Solicitor General Holmes Conrad are
also mentioned.

Report of English Experts to the London

Report of English Experts to the London
Reorganization Committee.
New YORK, August 9.-The mai n
points OF the report made by the English
experts, Price, Wsterhouse & Co., 10 the
London reorganization committee Of
the Norfolk and Western Railroad Com
pany are as follows: They state that
there was net deficit for the three
years 1892 to 1894 of S9O2. 597 to which
must be added the dividends paid in
1892, making tho total deficit for the
period named S1,s57,597 snd that the
company should have charged OF $780,
600 more each year for equipment de-
stroyed.
They say that interest and dividends
guaranteed on leased lines should have
been charged to net income account, in
stead OF carrying them as assets, and
that assessment paid by Shenandoah
bondholders In 1890 should have been
charged to capital account; whereas, the
company had placed 1t credit to the
income account. where it wss carried ga
special dividend fund.

Ex.spesker Crisp Says Membership Of
the League is increasing.
LONDON, Aug 9 -Ex-Speaker Charles
f. Crisp, who is now in London, was
interviewed to-day by representative
OF the Associated Press in regard TO the
chances of monetary conference being
called. He setd: II could not discover
in my travels in Englsnd thas any in
terest in bimetsllism was taken among
the people. They do not discuss 1t and
do not seem to be educated up to 1t. Mr..
McNeill, secretary of the bimetallic
league, informs me that the member
ship OF the league is rapidly increasing,
but what they consider rapid in England
would be very slow In the United
States.

the leading bimetallists and perhaps
they will show me that the cause ia dc.

there WAS any likelihood that he would
be placed in the Supreme Court to sue
coed the late Howell e. jackson; but

question. The United States ambassa-
dor. Hon. Thomas F. Baysrd, has Wis

MRS. JOHN ANGEL has entered suit
to prove that she was the first and only
legal wife of the late Jay Gould. She
ia rather late in putting forth her claim
and nothing will hardly come OF 1t now

one of the disadvantages OF having great
wealth, that o rich mans character,

AMERICAN AND ENGLISH YACHTS

AMERICAN AND ENGLISH YACHTS.
The Defender has had IL all her own
way In the races with the Vigilant, but
when the new Valkyrie. now coming
across the ocean arrives and enters upon
the struggle for the American cup the
result may be different. The New York
Herald quotes Mr.. Lewis Nixon, the
we'll known naval expert, az saying
that the Defender Is about the equal of
the Brittsnia. and in many ways In
ferior to the Vslkyrie. which has OUT
sailed the Brittania at every point, and
although the VigilAnt has been beaten
regularly by the Defender there has not
been the difference between the two
American yachts that is noticeable be-
tween the two English boats.
The Defender, Mr.. Nixon shows, is
much more upon English lines than any
other boat of Herreshoff construction.
while Valkyrie III has followed to some
extent the centreboard type. Both OF
these new features render any guess as
to the Anal outcome of the races uncer.
