PARIS, Sept. 1.-THE Journal Des Debats,
in an article discussing the case of ex-
Consul Waller, to-day declares that let
tiers written by Mr.. Waller which were
seized by the French authorities in Mad
agascar have fully proved the case against
him. The Journal Des Debats adds: "Mr.

date the judgment of the court-martial. 1t
is an unfortunate affair, but what else
could We do?"

TRADE OUTLOOK.
Dun Says Business Hesitates and
the Future Is Clouded.
BUSINESS NOT HELPED BY EVENTS.
The Number Of Hands Employed Does Not
Increase Heavy Sales Of Wool,
However, Reported-Wheat
LOw-FaIlureB.

New YORK, Jan. 26.-R G. Dun &
Co.'S Weekly Review Of Trade says:
Events have not helped business this week.
About q $50, 900 gold has been withdrawn from
the treasury, mainly for export and the gold
reserve has been reduced to about $5s-0OO,OOO.
Since December 8 the treasury has lost in
twenty mine working days about $3'Ooo'WO
gold, and daily increasing distrust Is liable to
effect the markets unfavorably. Industries
have not yet found sufficient demand for their
products TO prevent further decline.
The number Of hands employed does not In
crease, and strike has cut OF for more than
week about half the Brooklyn laborers. AT
the bottom business hesitates, but the future
Is clouded and the consuming demand has not
increased In January, as was expected
In the belief that 1t would increase, indus
tries had enlarged production, and, until 1t
does, the excess Of producing capacity con-
stanty tends 10 depress prices in both iron and
steel.
Heavy sales OF wool, 6,507, $50 pounds, against
566 $50 two years ago, are in part the result OIL
growing confidence among manufacturers that
they will be able TO meet foreign competition
and In part because prices are not thought
likely to 60 lower SO that some have purchased
beyond their orders for goods.
Receipts OF foreign wool are large and hold
ers are pushing to sell. Openings OF additional
lines OF manufacturers WOO ems indicate gen
era reduction Of i to 10 percent. on last years
but quotations IRE unstable.

death OF Capt. Manning, an officer OF
sterling worth, and that of so many
good men and true, three Of whom had
families at the post, could not but
weigh heavily on the spirits of one and
ell. The homecoming Of the wounded,
however, called for the active services
Of many hands as well as the liveliest
sympathy Of every heart, for the jour
ney by field and rail had been a trying
ordeal in the fierce heat which for
seven days utter Winthrop's fight had
seemed to hard-bake the broad valley

by the casualties IN the main
engagement had been supplemented
by keen anxiety as to the fate Of
Perry Thornton and his party Rhett
wasa cool-headcd fellow and had done
about the right thing; even Edwards
and other cavalry cranks were ready to
admit that. Aroused soon after mid
