I'VE have some excuse for this, as the
birds furnish wholesome and cheap
food and with guns we could never OBJ

seen here during any other season and
are evidently not natives OF our imme-

climax i'll Il kiss of the sisters hand. The

to the girl of his heart. When the honey
moon is passed the wife steps in the
place that mother and sister occupied, but
the wife objects to what she has per-

the greater part OF the men in America

true principles of inbred respect, which

DUN'S REVIEW OF TRADE.

New YORK. October 11.-R. G.. Dun &
Co.'S weekly review of trade, which is
sues tomorrow, will say:
The price barometer gives indica-
tons that are not entirely favorable
Cotton goods go up with increasing
evidence that the crop of cotton is
short Prices Of other manufactured
products. Of wool. hides and leather. all
show some decline. a general abatement
ia new orders being the principal cause.
With an immense volume OF business.
not much exceeded in the largest
month OF the exception year. 1892. and
with evidence in several important
branches that the volume has surpass-
cd that Of any previous year, there is
a growing uncertainty about the near
future of industries. Money markets
are neither strained nor threatening.
foreign exchanges no longer raise ap-
prehension. and all fears about the
great Northern crops are past There
have been few advances in wages Of
labor within the past month, and only
q few works have been closed through
strikes for an advance. The pToduc-
ti0n of pig iron October 1, was the
largest i'm the history Of the country
201.414 tons weekly. against 1914 029
September I. 1860 having been the
highest In 1892. Stocks unsold are not
stated. but substantially the whole
production is in execution Of past or
dors. On the other hand. new orders
are exceedingly small. There Is
marked decrease i'm almost all finished
products: tank steel is lower; bar iron
IFS offered 10y some at concessions;
plates are not firm; the structural de-
maud has greatly increased, and wire
rods decline 81 TO 500 with lower wire
and much reduced demand for nails
Bessemer pig has fallen 81 TO SO at
Pittsburg and Grey Forge % cents, and
prices Of iron products average l15 per
cent lower for the week. Discontln-
uance of q demand. which could not be
expected to continue at the same rate
after prices had risen 52.9 per cent,
leave actual consumption IN question.
Wooden manufactures, a demand Tor
dress goods and some other specialtles
keeps many fully employed. but most
of the works making mems wOolens
for which new orders are scanty find
not enough to keep them running.
Sales of wool continue heavy, 11549, zoe
pounds for the week, largely specula-
tive.
Failures for the week have included
two banks and several concerns OF some
size. and have been PCS in the United
States against 231 last year, and % in
Canada against 43 last year.
