New York.
Brewster. N. Y. Nov. 30.-Njneteen
years ago so tons of rock fell into the
open pit at the lilly Foster mine, kill
ing six miners and maturing three
others TO. life. The six who met death
were so horribly crushed that their
bodies were taken up in shovels, thrown
into canvas sacks and -hoisted to the
surface. From that time until Friday
the hanging walls, which Use 400 feet
above the working level of rhe pit, have
undergone daily inspection. If this in
spection revealed any crevice OF other
sign of danger work below was aban-
doned until the threatening overhang
had been dislodged. The extreme eau

Friday afternoon about 30 men were
at work on the 4OO-foot level breaking
ore and loading the cars sent down by
the cable. About $3.50 O'clock the en-
tire northwest wall, apparently con
tanning over 100 tons of rock. fell lrto

and inflicting serious injuries upon nine
others. William Aspell and four others

The Trade Situation Reviewed by r. G..
Dun & Co.
New York. Nov. 3O.-K. G. Dun & Co.,
in their " eekly review of trade, say:
Business has not improved, though
there Is very little change except in the
shrinkage of prices which a period of mac
ton naturally causes. Retail stocks are
still reported full in nearly all branches,
with delayed distribution In many on ac-
count of the unfavorable weather The
movement of crops is only fair, both cotton
and wheat being largely kept back In the
hope of higher prices, and there is a prev
alent feeling that foreign imports will fall
off. Exports show little gain for the
week, although the small outgo of cotton
is sill a threa tening fact as respects for
eign exchanges. Railroads reporting for
November show a gain of S4 per cent. in
earnings compared with last year, and a
loss of per cent compared with 1892. y
There is not much changein commercial
lOans although a little more demand from
some manufacturing centers is reported
On the whole, the demand is nothing like
what it would be If general business were
in normal condition. The speculative
markets have not helped, for while wheat
is a cent higher. with corn unchanged, cot
ton Is a shade higher, and held with much
stiffness in spite of all evidence of the
abundant supplies abroad and the sagging
trade of European spinners. Goods here
are shade weaker, perhaps per cent. on
the whole, in spite of small advance in
raw cotton. Another sharp fall in hides
at Chicago has not been followed by
leather, which has declined only for grain.
nor proportionately by boots and shoes.
The manufacturers are getting remark
ably little new business for the season. and
many look for no material change until
after January l. The wooden business
makes scarcely any gain.
