SENATOR VESTS BILL.

Senator Vest has introduced q currency
bill that is wide departure from either
the Carlisle or the Baltimore plan. II
does away with national bank notes and
says nothing about the State bank cur
rency. The scheme in brief substitutes
a uniform system of "coin notes" paya-
BILE in gold or silver coin, which are to be
a full legal tender, for the present Treas.
ury notes, gold and silver certificates,
national bank notes, etc. The plan also
contemplates basing the entire c~ircula-
ton on gold and silver coin; it includes
even free silver coinage after a fashion
that is, silver bullion brought to any
mint shall be received and coined into
standard dollars. So fer the plan reads
we'll. But the old commodity provision
is then inserted which takes ell the life
there is In the scheme out Of II, by pro-
viding that ''the difference between the
coming and commercial value Of the sill.
yer shsll be turned into the Treasury"
This is nothing less than placing silver
bullion on q sliding scale; il would give
the holders Of bullion simply the market
value thereof. and would encourage the
production Of silver but little. The
friends OF silver, both in and out Of
Congress. IL they desire to see silver re-
stored to its old place as money, will op-
pose any bill that has q commodity pro-
vision in it. Silver is money or ID is
nothing. On the whole, this bill is unsat
isfaotory and but q poor excuse for
solving the money question.

MANITOWOC, Wis, March 22.-
Phil S. ABBOT, representing the Mani
towoc Terminal company, filed con-
demnation proceedings with the
clerk of the circuit court this morn
ing against property in this city
comprising fifty-seven descriptions.
Options had already been given on
considerable of this property to
George r. Bracket, of Cambridge.
Mass, and the proceedings were no
doubt taken to perfect title. About
SIPS, 900 worth of real estate has
been purchased here of late in the
name of George r. Bracket Phil
S. ABBOT is the son of Edwin H. ABBOT.
of the Wisconsin Central, and George
r. Bracket is the man who acted as
Mr.. Abots agent in making numer-
GUS purchases of real estate in Mil
waukee for the CentraPs proposed
terminals.
While denying nothing, Receivers
Morris and Whitcomb, of the Wis
consin Central, refuse to discuss the
question Of the move to extend the
Central from Neenah to Manitowoc
and make lake connections. That
the company, through certain in
dividuals who are identified with the
Central, has secured forty acres or
more Of land in Manitowoc, includ-
ing valuable dock property, and
practically the right of way from
Neenah, is an established fact, and it
is believed that the work of con-
struction will soon be commenced.
The new line will undoubtedly be
constructed by a new company, at
the head Of which will probably be
found Edwin H. Abot. The Central
company, when reorganized, which
will probably be during the coming
summer or fall, will then take the
new property, or as much of it as is
completed, and will make desirable
Seaboard connections. It is said
that the company and the receivers
are growing very tired of paying a
heavy tribute to the Chicago ter
minal company for everything that
is shipped in there by the Central,
and by securing connection with a
line across the lake the Central peo-
pie will be much more independent.

DnADsTREET CONFIRMS
General Improvement in Trade
Noted

NOIcus
NEW YORK, March 2.-Bradstrcets
tomorrow will say: Improvement in
general trade is more marked, but not
general. 1t is more conspicuous at
larger New England points-notably
Boston and Providence, at New York,
Pittsburg, Cincinnati, Louisville and
other centers along the Ohio river val
ley, to st. Louis and as far west as
Kansas City. Similar reports come
from Chicago, Milwaukee and ST. Paul,
the first named announcing that small
er quantities of 4 per cent money are
being offered, the banks working stead
lily toward a per cent basis, demand
for loans continuing to improve and
reserves being lower than for a year
past.
From other cities a better feeling is
reported, based on the recently devel-
oped strength in cotton, wheat and
flour. The widespread prevalence of
the inquiry, whether the upward move
ment is the beginning of permanent
recovery from the years of depression
is CT itself insignificant.
While among important price move
ments there are reactions for wheat,
last week, this was to be expected as
the outcome of selling movement to
take profits, empha sized by favorable
crop reports from abroad and freer re-
ceipts. Quotations for anthracite coal
have been demoralized, and there is
little hope for them until those who
make them desire to have prices higher
and steady. Eggs continue the decline
OF a week ago, and live hogs at some
Western points are cents lower Job
bers of ginghams have closed out their
stock in some cases by cut prices, but
these cover about all the noteworthy
declines in prices.
Wool remains unchanged, although
the volume of business is smaller be-
cause 1t is between seasons with dress
goods mills, and Australian woods are
more popular. No changes in quo
tations are noted for coffee, sugar or
naval stores. On the other hand, cot
ton has jumped up 5-16c, corn is 1hc
higher, and butter has scored another
advance. On the Pacific coast lumber
is higher and advancing, and at Cen
trail Western markets, leather is up 1c
per pound and calf skin to sc per
foot. Live cattle also have advanced,
as has coke, which, taken in connec-
ton with increased wages paid iron
and steel workers at Pittsburg, indi-
Gates an advance for Bessemer pig
iron and billets. Increased firmness
is reported in some varieties of cotton
goods, due to the advance In Gotten,
some varieties having been marked
up &c by manufacturers.
Exports of wheat, including flour as
wheat, from both coasts equal 2,99S, 6S5
blu this week, or 1000 blu more than
last week, more than 100000 blu in ex-
cess of quantity shipped abroad in
the third week of March, 1894, and more
than 100000 blu in excess of the total
in the like week of 1893. The increase
as compared with the corresponding
period Of 1892 is about 100000 blu and
with 1891 more than 100000 bu Thus,
for the first time in many months, the
weeks exports of wheat have been in
excess of corresponding totals in four
preceding years.
Wholesale trade has improved at To-
ronto with jobbers of dry goods and
hardware. The grain market is
stronger.

BRADsTREET ON FINANCES.
Bullishness Feature of the Week
in Speculation.

bul1IShneSS 81 Feature Of the Week
in Speculation.
NEW YORK, March 22-Bradstreet's
financial review tomorrow will say: 1t
is some time since the speculative mar
ket has had so decidedly a buIlish
tone and tendency as were exhibited
during the present week The signif-
icance of the movement is not to be
measured by the Improvement which
has taken place in quotations, but
rather by the unmistakable signs which
have been afforded of a broader and
more genuine speculation. While for
eign buying of securities has not been
large, the London market has shown
considerable interest in Americans, and
seems at last to be recovering conf
dence in the stability of our finances,
although the absorption of the specu-
lative public in what is called the
'kafhr circus" otherwise the trading
in South African mining shares, is an
obstacle to a healthy DEVELOPMENT of
interest in American stocks. At the
same time the general public, so long
absent from the market, appears to
have supplied more or less purchasing
power, and to have awakened the be-
lief that We are on the eve of a move
ment, possibly a slow one, but one
which, nevertheless, will result Unmarked
appreciation of prices, the change in
the temper of speculation has indeed
fallen little short of having a sensa-
tional character.
A little over a week ago the market
was still mainly influenced by actual
and prospective reductions of dividends
and by the exceedingly bad conditions
of railroad earnings. 1t is easy, how
ever, to attribute the revived conf
dence of the market to the improving
conditions which have appeared in the
trade, and particularly to the recent
advances in the values of commodities
and agricultural products. Neverthe-
less it must be admitted that Wall street
grasped the significance of these facts
with remarkable suddenness, and that
the temperance to some extent of
the public as factors in speculation as
well as the apparent readiness of the
European interests to take part in our
market have been surprise to the
regular speculative contingent No
doubt exists that certain large interests
are actively enlisted upon the bull side,
while the covering of outstanding short
contracts made by the professional
traders has aided in carrying the mar
ket forward. A circumstance of no in
considerable influence is the upward
tendency of the money market and the
decreasing surplus reserve held by the
New York banks lending force to ex-
pectations that from this time on the
money market will show a more healthy
and active state of affairs. Among the
features worthy of special notice is
the rising tendency in bonds, particu-
larry junior issues of roads whose con-
dition promises to furnish more tam
gible reason for Improvement in their
securities.

Congressman Goes Over.
NEW YORK. March o. Ex-Con-
gresham Timothy E. Campbell ap-
peared before Judge McAdam in the
superior court this afternoon to answer
to the charge of contempt of court in
making a statement in connection with
the Campbell-Miner fight for the seat
from the Ninth congressional district.
Counsel for Campbell raised the ques-
ton as to whether Judge McAdam had
jurisdiction in the case, and moved to
Quash the citation on the ground that
Judge McAdam had no right to issue
such papers, and that they should
come from the superior court, and that
the paper was entitled as an action in
stead of being as in specific proceed

There was a long fight over the mo-
ton for adjournment. Judge McAdam
said that if he had made statements
about any man such as Mr.. Campbell
had made about him he would be able
to answer them at a moments notice.
The case was finally adjourned.
