REVIEW or TRADE.


Prices Not Enceursging.
Nsw YORK, March SIR G. Dun 4
Co.'S Weekly Review Of Trade says:
Movement toward better things Is still the
exception There Is better business in shops
and small industries and there has been
squeezing Of short sellers In cotton. But the
general tendency Of industries and prices Is not
encouraging, and those who were most hopeful
month ago are still waiting, not SO hopefully,
for. the expected recovery. Causes Of continued
depression are not wanting Bad weather has
cut on much business, especially In country
districts. Some failures Of consequence have
caused especial caution. The root Of the busi-
ness is that In many departments men bought
more and produced more. when prices were
mounting and everybody was rushing TO buy
last year. than they have yet been able to SELL
That the buying was OF nature to anticipate
actual consumption many months they were
fully warned, but they had more hope than OBJ
servstion and went on piling up goods Some
are engaged to-day In the same hopeful antici-
patton Of demand which has not yet appeared.
The woolen mills, with prices already re-
duced below last years lowest average. and
wool aS per cent higher than 1t was then, are
not getting business enough TO keep works In
operation Clothiers have taken many foreign
goods; they have failed to market all they pro-
duced last fall and they have to carry host Of
retailers whose stocks are not yet sold.
sharp decide In the price Of cotton goods
is the comment Of mills on rising cotton.
Goods now average lower than since May, 1905,
having declined A2 per cent for the week.
print cloths to 2h cents, which Is but sixteenth
above the lowest price on record. The accu-
mutation Of goods in the face Of slack and
rapidly diminishing demand has brought the
closing OF one Of the largest mills and others
are considering.
The iron industry shows hut q slight average
decline. as combinations still insist upon the
highest prices Of last year, and the demand Is
naturally curtalled
The market In wheat has been weak though
rather stagnant, but the weight Of facts is felt,
as western receipts for three weeks Of March
have been S'9S2i8 bushels against 1924 929 last
year. The movement Of corn continues very
large, and prices have declined one cent for
cash.
Failures for the week have been 26i In the |

LAUGH AND CLAP HANDS
As They Whlzz to Death-A Fearful Accident on the New Railroad in
 s s-g4. Jamaica.

Baltimore, Md, July 20-Captain Weise of the steamship America, which arrived today from Jamaican ports, brought news of a serious railroad acci- dent on the new Jamaica railroad, in which seventeen persons lost their lives and twenty others were injured. It oc- cured July Il, about ten miles from An nato bay. A locomotive drawing six flat cars loaded with colored laborers, male and female, was descending a steep grade on the side of the mountain, when the air brakes failed and the train be- gan a wild flight down the mountain side All the efforts of the train crew to check its speed proved unavailing, and 1t shot down the steep grade like a rocket. Not realizing that the train was beyond con trol, the women clapped their hands with glee and laughed and cheered as they flew over the rails, but their laughter was soon followed by the shrieks of the wounded and groans of the dying. Near the bottom of the grade the runaway train collfded with a locomotive which was standing on the track. Seven men, jumped from the cars and were instant ly killed, three being decapitated. Thir- ty-two others were more or less injured seriously, of which number ten died af- forwards. Not woman was severely hurt. Both locomotives and the cars were demolished The track was torn up for a considerable distance

Kentucky Popu1ites Are Against the In-
 dorsement of MT. Bryan.
 Paducah, Ky, July 20.-The populist state convention met here today. l.. K Taylor of Paducah was elected tempo rary chairman. In a speech thanking the convention for the honor MT. Taylor said that the populists had forced the demo- crats into populism, and had forced them to nominate Bryan.
 The temporary organization was made permanent. The committee on resolu- tions reported as follows:
 Resolved by the peoples party of Kentucky in convention assembled:
 1. The peoples party of Kentucky is unalterably opposed to the indorsement by the national convention of the peo- ple's party at St. Louis of the democratic platform and ticket nominated at Chica- go.
 2. We are decidedly opposed to nomi- hating any man for any office who will not indorse and advocate a straight pop ulist platform. We believe in honest, courageous, straightforward adherence to all the principles of our party and the preservation of our organization in this crisis of our party to be the wiset and best policy to be pursued by our conven- tion at St. Louis both for our country and our party.
 B. We favor a union of all reform forces on an honorable basis, If one preserving intact the organization and principles of the peoples party can be devised. This may be done by an equitable division of electors and not by surrender or fusion. The report was adopted by vote of 240 to 107.
Birmingham state herald., 1896-07-21

they are rampant middle of the road fellows, who want the convention to make an independent ticket, and insist that it shall But out our way everybody who is not gold standard republican is for Bryan, and 1t does not make any difference whether this convention in dorses him or not-the people are going to vote for him.
 Republicans in Kansas are leaving the party by thousands. I addressed four meetings in my district last week, big ones, too and at the close of each took vote to satisfy myself of the actual condition of affairs. Not a single man avowed himself in favor of the republi- can candidates, although there were many present who have supported them in the past
