A OF TRADE.

Distinct Sigma OF Improvement Deapite
Industrial Discomfort.
NEW YORK, May 3-Bradstreets
says: The past week brought distinct
and in some instances even more pro-
nounced evidences of improvement in
business, Notwithstanding the increase
of the wave of industrial discomfort
and strikes for highe.' wag :, was the
accompaniment OF an upward tendency
to prices. Sole ieather IS up another ,
cents and prices OF shoes are following.
Galvan .Zed iron AMI wire nails are
h CHER, as is Bessemer pig, sugar, print
cloths and wheat -four. In addition
prices have RENAMED i.m for lumber,
tn and cotton, and while no actual aa-
vances are announced for steel billets,
live cate and rice, the tendency Ill
each instance is upward.
The Heavy Drop in Wheat
ear, in the week prevents wheat quo
tatiol>s from showing a net advance,
Notwithstanding the sharp upward turn
in the past few days. Large receipts
of hogs have put prices down 3 cents
and lard and pork have followed.
Bank clearings a week ago indicated
that the tide Of trade at the South was
rising and this weeks kilograms IN
firm it. The South sends to Brad
streets more encouraging reports than
for a long time. At the West previous
gains are maintained and confidence in
an enlarged volume of business in
creases At Chicago and St. Louis
wholesale dealers report a volume of
business larger than last week and than
the week a year ago.
Foreign Exchange Demoraiized.
The event of the week is the demoral.
ization of foreign exchange caused by
enormous sales of bonds abroad. Be.
sides a sale of $40, 600, 900 Manhattan
and other railroad bonds through the
syndicate, large purchases on foreign
account have been received for some
weeks, so that the aggregate probably
exceeds $50, 900. 600 since the sale OF
governments. Safety for the summer
means much for all business, and the
| syndicate deems it so fully assured that
1t distributes 40 per cent of the money
advanced by the associates, which re-
lieves a large amount to stimulate oper
ations i'll securities and products. CroI
prospects also have greatly improved
and this is of still higher Importance
as it will do much to determine thu
character and volume of all business
after summer uncertainties are over

Hi EARTH'S CRUST
1t L. aid to he In a Constant State of
Slight Agitation.

1t Il Said to he In a Constant State of
Slight Agitation
According to Professor John Milne.
the crust of the great globe upon which
we live and have our being" is in a
constant state Of agitation, weaving in
and out, up and down. like a circus tent
in a cyclone. There arc earth move
ments that are being experienced at all
times and in all lands, but they are SO
slight from nOnth 90 month n from
year to year that they generally escape
detection. In all the countries Of Eu-
rope and in many of those Of Asia,
most notably Korea and Japan, these
fittings are SO great as to be noticed
even by the unscientific and inexperi-
enced representatives of the lower castles.
Germany seems to be the eat of great
est European earth crust agitation. ia
pan occupying asimiiar position in Asia.
OF the above W. countries Professor
Milne says: "In both Germany and ia
pan a tidelike movement, too great to
be produced by lunar attraction, has
been observed, the ground being gently
tilted once every "a hours and some
times twice, in which case the night
disturbance would be greatest, and in
all cases buildings, trees, ETC., stand
slightly inclined, like cornstalks in a
gentle, steady breeze" In short, the
earth is constantly breathing, so to
speak, the crust marking each respira-
ton by a gentle rising and falling, SINH
lar to hat of the chest in air breathing
animals. 1t is believed that a certain
pei, cent OF this earth crust disturbance
Is due to conditions similar to those
which bring about earthquakes. This is
especially true as far as it regards la
pan. where it has been traced to the cor-
tinual opening and closing of the broken
strata in the main range of mountains.
Among other movements Of the crust
Of our painting earth are the SO called
''microseismic'' or ''tremor storms, -
which are now defined as being long, fiat
earth waves, similar to those Of an ocean
swell. There may also be occasional
disturbances in earth levels caused by
earthquake waves, which quite frequent
ly extend entirely around the world. al
though inappreciable to the senses Of
persons located only a few hundred
miles from the ~''center of radiation of
the seismic shock.-St. Louis Repnhlin

IS MUCH DISCUSSED.

Justice jackson the Most Talked of Man
In the Country. q,
WASHINGTON, May 13.-In the hands
Of Justice Jackson rests the outcome Of
the income tax law, and in consequence
he is at present the most talked Of man
in Washington.
There has never been in the history
of Jurisprudence in the United States
any litigation that involves so much,
and upon which the very fabric of the
constitution is builded, as the pending
cases submitted this week ON q rehear.
ing. Judge Jackson is depended IN,
therefore, to settle the matter one way
or the other. If he comedies with one
set of justices the entire law will be
void; if with the other side then it will
only ave that portion of the law which
taxes incomes derived from business
enterprises outside of real estate and
bond investments.
The Arguments.
1t cannot be said that the government
made a strong showing on the rehear-
ing. Attorney General Olney made q
labored and illogical argument. 1t was
plain to the laymen as we'll as to the
lawyers who heard him that the attor.
ney general has no heart in the contest
to maintain class legislation in Amer
lea. The argument Of Joseph H. Choate
will probably rank with the very best
legal expositions that have ever been
heard before the old bar Of the supreme
court. While at his most interesting
point the great New York lawyer
caused the spectators to break forth in
unusual applause, for such demonstra-
tons are never permitted within the
dignified presence Of the supreme court
judges.
A Man Of Convictions.
Justice jackson is q man Of very
positive convictions. He is an old
school Democrat. Like his illustrious
namesake, he is possessed of an indie
pendence Of character that has con-
tributed much to his success in life. He
is said to take q very broad view Of the
constitution of the United States and
to hold that the congress cannot es.
tablish propositions by virtue Of that
instrument that are lot in conformity
with the will, the wisdom aud the in
tent of the trainers Of the constitution,
which was itself q compromise between
the radical and conservative in govern.
ment. While in the senate Of the
United States Judge Jackson estab.
lished the reputation Of being n OF
the best constitutional lawyers Of that
body. He was nominated by President
Harrison for the supreme bench, and
confirmed by a Republican senate.
Probably He an Adverse Opinion.
His whole life, his public utterances
and his record on all questions of i'm.
portance are being closely looked up by
those who are ready to predict what his
decision will be in the income tar.
There is everything to warrant the
belief that Justice jackson will decide
adversely to the law as passed by con
gress.
Indeed, the treasury officials expec,
nothing less, and the officials of the in
ternal evenu Department. say thai
they had rather have the law stricken
out entirely than to have portions Of i
stand which will embarrass the depart
ment and produce endless litigation.
