Colorado SnGwb0und.

Denver. Col, September 22.-The
damage done to the fruit interests of the
state by the heavy snowfall of last night
is beyond computation. In the vicinity
OF Denver fruit and shade trees were
broken by the heavy snow freezing to
the limbs, yet in full leaf, and scarcely
tree for miles around escaped injury
Reports from the interior show the
same depiOrable conditions, varying
only in degree. While the fruit growers
may save most of the matured fruit, the
more serious damage is in the broken
trees and shattered trunks.
The snow storm was general over the
state, the amount varying from four to
twelve inches. To-day the sun shone
clear. The indications are favorable for
a killing frost tonight

r. G. DUS & Co.'S Weekly Rerielg Of
Trade, says: Ths surprising increase in
the production aud advance in prices of
iron seems to be bringing natural
check. As prices have gone so high as
to cause some purchases from Europe,
both of PIC and finished products, and
have also caused a distinct shriukage in
home demand.
The cotton mills which laid in stocks
OF cotton below six cents, are enriched
by the advance in material, and are en-
abled to make frequent advances IN
goods. The present demand is dull, but
there are no reports of stoppage, and
the threatened strike at Fall River does
not come.
The movements of exchange and of
gold have somewhat affected the mark
cts this week Exchange has fallen,
| though not because commercial bills
have greatly increased. Exports of
! specie. though diminished, will reach
about S12, 400, 600. 1t is confidently be-
lieved that the international syndicate
will allow no financial disorder.
August imports exceeded exports by
SO, ,282, 729, and net exports of gold
were So, 159, 1872 A small cotton crop,
/ with large stocks held abroad; a slender
| demand for Atlantic wheat, with Rus
sian arriving in London In large quantl-
ties, and merchandise exports and inn
ports at New York 80 per cent larger
| than last year in September thus far
scarcely promises speedy change. The
| volume of domestic trade measured by
exchanges-20 per cent greater than last
year, but per cent less than in 1892
is not quite as near the record OF full
prosperity for September as for August
or July.
In spite of gold exports wheat ad.
vanced, for some days, nearly 2 cents
Corn rose and fell in sympathy with
wheat with as little reason. The west
ern wheat receipts for the three week:
of September have been 16, 791, 66(
bushels, against 16, ,491, ,629 last year
while Atlantic exports, flour included
have been 3,941, ,693 bushels, agains
1921, ,985 last year. The good reports
of foreign crops, the weakness of tiou
in Minnesota and the large exports o
corn from this country, all work agains
a rise in wheat, though scarcity of con
tract grades may hold speculative ad
vance. The cotton market, lifting anC
falling fraction each day alternately
shows no settled tendency, big stock
balancing an undoubted but as yet not
defined decrease Is yield.

Lest IN the Snow.

Rawlins, Wyo.. September 23-Frank
Nevan, a ranchman, on Saturday morn
ing sent his two boys, aged II and 13
years, out after the COWS. Tie boys not
returning, he came in yesterday and
alarmed the town. About 20 horse
men Immediately responded. They all
have returned without finding any trace
of the missing boys, who undoubtedly
perished in Saturdays storm. The
searchers report the snow in the hills
two feet deep. The stage from Snake
River on Saturday night picked up one
of Taylor x Hogg's shepherds named
Gray, who was lying near the road CONS
pleteIy exhausted and Slightly frozen.
When he heard the stage approach he
fired his pistol to attract the drivers at
tention. He was so numb with the cold
that he was unable to reach it without
assistance.

THE Pittsburg Democrats are organi-

bill. 1t is an excellent idea, and taking
shape in the Birmingham of America

the whole country, busy as it may be,
can catch without difficulty. Prosperity
jubilees would not be inappropriate in
any of our cities, but the Pittsburg cele-
bration will have special point in its en-
vlronment, and would be logical anti
thesis to the memories of Homestead.

a POLL of the house of representa>
tives in the next congress shows 216 OPP
ponents of free silver coinage, IS who
favor free coinage, and 90 who refuse to
declare themselves. OF the free silver
representatives there are 81 Democrats,
so Republicans and Z Populists. Should
the uncommitted representatives all
vote for free coinage, there will still be a
majority against it of 76. These figures
show how rapidly the cheap money
craze is declining. If congressman
were to be elected this year the falling
off would be still more marked.
