REVIEW OF TRADE.

Confidence Prevailing In Better Things
to Come-Consumption Exceeding Buy
ing.
New YORK, May 9.-R- 6. Dun &
Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade says:
That the exports of IS. 800. 600 gold this week
have produced no monetary disturbance is AZ
once proof of the soundness of financial condf-
ttonS, and of the prevailing confidence In bet
ter things to come. Much of the hesitation at
present is due to the temporarily reduced de-
mand in some industries, and in iron and steel
generally tested by refusal of orders, SO that
production exceeds consumption, but consump-
ton exceeds new buying
For textile manufactures the situation Is
trying. Cotton mills have a fairly active de-
mand, though not equal to their normal OUT
put, and for many months have been accumu-
lating goods hoping for better things that
for some grades, with higher prices for cotton
has helped to a small advance In prices. Print
cloths eighth higher, but some other
grades have declined, that the average OF
all quotations is slightly lower Mems wool
ems show no Improvement, but there is more
active business in flannels and the emand for
fancy dress goods is encouraging, thou gh for
plain goods it is but moderate
Traders in wheat have lifted prices a little.
and yet nobody questions the correctness OF
western reports indicating more than an ordi-
nary yield of winter wheat and unusual prog
ress in the planting of spring. With the mar
row stock usual at this season, a speculation
for advance always has many opportunities.
but western receipts are still ~ per cent
larger than last year. Corn is also shade
lower. but without definite reason
Failures for the week have been 23S in the
United States, against 227 last year, and "a in
Canada, against 81 last year.

%, golden heart a-gleaming in the grass
On a fair morn O. May,
I stoop to touch you softly as pass
Along the common way.
Thinking of one b1ue-sky and white-cloud
day
When, free from vexing care,
I pulled and curled your stems in childish
play,
And wove them in my hair;
- Or breathed across your phantom seed
sphere there
with wonder and delight
= To see you. spirit-like, rise in the air
And vanish out OF sight;
Believing while I watched your shining
fight,
The breeding, blessed Power,
Mysterious and silent as the light,
Would bring you back, flower.
All, sweet chfld-trust that bides through
and shower,
In wisdom all unskil1ed;
After long storms will come fateful hour
When it shall be fulfilled.
Hopes winged seeds, through all the years
unchilIed,
Eloom in the wayside grass,
The flower comes back and with heart
strangely thrilled
We bless it pass

The Trouble at Armour's Likely to As
sumo Large Proportions
KANSAS CITY, Mo-, May i3.-The fire.
mems strike at Armour's, which, when
it began, only involved about so men,
is rapidly assuming colossal proper
tions, and bids fair to develop into the
most important and far-reaching bat
tie between labor and capital since the
famous strike of the Pullman employees
two years ago. Steps to secure their
own ends and looking to the success
of their own side are being taken
daily, and the controversy but grows
day by day. while the end is
more and more remote-so remote,
in fact, that the discordant ele-
ments involved may carry their con-
flict into the field of in International COM
merce before settlement is effected.
In fact, if yelled statements of facts
and rumors which, while unsu bstan-
tiated, are yet tacitly confirmed, count
for anything, the demand of a handful
of firemen for an increase of wages
from SLIGO to 50 per day has alread y
resulted in universal boycott of the
products of the biggest packing COM

TILLMAN WILL CONTROL.

His Friends in South Carolina Have Carried
the Democratic Primaries.
WASHINGTON, May 9.-Democratic
county conventions have been held in
every county in South Carolina to elect
delegates to the state convention,
which meets on the 18th of this month.
The free silver men carried every coun-
ty but three, and in one of these the
delegation was divided. The boiling
idea predominated in all but a few of
the counties. While no open instruc-
tions in favor of bolt were given the
county delegates, resolutions against
boiling were tabled wherever intro
duced. Senator Tillman's course was
approved in nearly all of the conven-
tons Tillman and his friends will
have complete control of the state con-
vention.

Express Omcials Want to Employ Him to
Guard Their Gold.
ST. LOUIS, May IL-Frank James as
a guard on express trains carrying
large amounts of money or valuables
is one of the novelties the express
people are now arranging. Negotia'
tions have been in progress for several
weeks, and the probabi lities are the
contract will be closed within few
days The effect of James name, in
view Of his former proves in
robbing trains himself, is what
the express companies are aiming
after. They do not know, they
say, that he could stop determined
robber any more than one of their own
messengers, but they think the ordi-
nary train robber would hesitate to
tackle him. James is willing to accept
the position and guarantees that no
train in his charge will be robbed ex-
cept over his dead body, with one
single provision, and that is that the
express people put up bond of SEQ. 900,
this amount to go to his widow in case
OF his death.

died the lives of two others who were

saving himself and Miss Calder, who
is his sister-in-law, only after an ex-

swept this section yesterday afternoon
A funnel-shaped cloud shot downward
from the storm center and a general
stampede of citizens for caves and eel
lars ensued. At the schoolhouse the
children fed panic-stricken to the
furnace room, amid the widest con-
fusion, and a number of the little ones
were hurt The cyclone struck the
ground north of the town. Its course
was northwest The path of the
storm was from 200 to 800 yards wide,
and everything in this path was RACED
to the ground, including several houses
Large trees along the highway ada
cent were torn and twisted out of the
ground. Carl johnson, a prominent
farmer, was caught in the twister. He
had a team attached to wagon. He
endeavored to skirt the storm by driv-
ing in a meadow to the westward, but
before he could lash his horses out of
the path of the rapidly approaching
hurricane, he was caught in its vortex,
| and man, horses and wagon were sent
| through space, together with fences,
| boards, posts, wire and other debris.
| His clothes were torn from his back,
| and he received number of wounds.
| At times the wind raised him high in
the air and then dropped him back to
the earth, only to catch him up again.
| The wagon was completely demol-
ished.
After traversing a distance of about
| two miles the funnel-shaped cloud
arose as suddenly as it had shot down
| to the earth, and at point five or six
miles farther to the north dropped
| again to the earth, where it is feared
great damage and loss of life resulted.
The storm struck Lincoln at 4:45 and
