WAIT FOR 4 CHANCE !;
TRADERS FIND BUSINESS NO BET
TER THAN LAST YEAR.
Cuba. the Tariff and Expected Ex'

~, Probable Causes.

New York. Dec. 1S-R. G. Dun & Com
panys Weekly Review of Trade tofnorr'"
will say:
Cuban reports, close money in Germany
and the decision that there Will be no &C
tion on the tariff have not really chapgeo
the situation, but have been talked aeput
as If they might change 1t. sutuen
demand for gold from Germany 1ust oe>
fore the close of the year is not unusual
nor does 1t count for much. NO facts'
but only desires or fears. have leo Some
to look for a change of tariff before
March. and considerable speculation pased
on that idea has been arrested, but other
business waits for the gradual improve
ment of the consuming demand. The
holiday trade Is generally large, though
AT some points more confined to cheaper
goods than usual and the influence Oh
the increase of the working force is felt.
But until the new year the only material
changes expected are such as prepare
for a large business for the year.
Sneculation in wool has halted; sales for
the week being 3,721, 200 pounds, against
s, $50 900 last year, and 5651. 400 in 1892, and
concessions are more frequent. Ohio Xxx
sold at II cents, against 20 cents recently.

been postponed until after the holidays.
The control of the Iron mountain Me-
| saba mine has been leased for 80 years,
or purchased, by the Carnegie interests
| from ], d. Rockefeller. This, with the
erection of 16 open hearth furnaces, max
| ing 36, insures an enormous increase Oh
| the product at an extremely low cost,
and will affect all combinations in steel
| products or in ore.
The billet pool has practically dissolved,
and sales are reported at SIS to so, with
contracts to supply consumers through
out most or the whole of next year. Inc
beam pool has revived and restored the
price to $155, but nails and steel bars
ARE shade lower
The rail association has been in session
and our Philadelphia dispatch states that
rails are sold at $685. against $2S, SO long
maintained. Bessemer pig and gray forge
are lower at Pittsburg, Alabama iron be-
ing % cents lower at the east, and with
| so much uncertainty regarding great
changes in progress, very little is done in
finished products, and generally at con-
cessions. sale of 100000 pounds OF
lake copper is reported at $1.5O.
The coke production Is increasing, with
contracts reported at $3.50.
The failures of the week number 1857,
against ST. last year, and AZ In Canada
against go last year.

Judgments were entered to the amount of
$1,000. The failure is said to be due to

WONDERFUL tx" RAY SURGERY.
Thomas A. Edison md New York
Doctors Remove n Brain CIot

Guided by TX" rays provided by Thomas
A. Edison, lancet operated by Drs. w. o.
Bailey and A. D. Wandell has probably
restored sight to 10-year-old Mary Schien-
liner of Newark, N J.
Two years ago the girl fell on her head.
When picked up her skull was apparently
uninjured, and the scalp wound quickly
healed. few months ago she complained
that there was mist before her ewes.
In week she was totally blind. After
a consultation 1t was decided to try "X'.
rays. The girl was taken to Mr.. Edison
laboratory at Orange. The tx" rays were
turned on and focused against the side or
the child's head. DR.. Bailey could see the
pone pressing down on the little girls
brain, and dark shadow between its con-
volutions. 1t was blood clot.
"A plaque was held before the child,a
eyes While the rays were being thrown on
ner head. She was able to see the shadow
An operation was performed, and If was
found that the 'X' rays had told tho
truth. There was a bit of bone pressing
upon the interior section of the brain
and a blood clot that extended
down and pressed unon ~
opuc commissure, causing blind
ress to both eyes. Bit by bit the clot was
carefully cut away and the skull was
uephined, two or three large buttons ~
bone being taken out,
unless the nerve fibers have heoop,a
atrophled," said DR.. Bailey, there Ia M
reason why the child's eyesigbt should
not be fully restored"

Cooley of Michigan:
Ann Arbor. Dec. 19.-Power to recss

the executive power Of the country
which can recognize no belligerent gov

eminent, maintaining itself and enfordH
its authority against any other.
But the presidents power is not con-

course and pass laws for the purpose
laws which the president would be In.
peachable If he should not join In exc

Liverpool Ene.5 Dec. 2o.-The general
committee ofsthe National Liberal Fede-
ration met here this week t. discuss q
memorandum on reforms in the constitu-
ton of the federation. The announcement
foreshadowed reorganization of the entire
federation and radical changes in the in
ternal management. The leadership was
changed, as all the. local liberal assocla-
tons throughout the country tacitly or by
resolution will accept Sir William Vernon
Harcourt as leader. This fact has already
strengthened enormously his control or
the party, besides contributing to the unify-
ing of the party forces. 1t can no longer
be called headless party, and 1t is now to
get a coherent program with better sys-
TEN of electoral management. ~

JUSTICE WAS DONE TO SAILORS.
Opinion by Judge Morrow of San
FrnnciscO.

San Francisco, Dec. 1S.-Judge Morrow
today handed down an opinion in the
case Of Hogan and others against the
bark ]. d. Peters. The Mcguire act of
1895 prohibited the anticipation by coast
seamen of their wages. It was intended
to repeal section 10 of the acts of 1884
and 1886, which permitted anticipation OF
wages to the amount of $40 per month
during the voyage. Judge Morrow de-
clared that 1t was absurd to prevent any
man from drawing upon a sum Of money
which is already owing to him. On ac-
count Of an ambiguity in the Mcguire
act, it fails OF its purpose, and the laws
of 1884 and 1885 are still in force.
The captain of the Peters had sold
clothing to his men at profit Of 400 per
cent. Judge Morrow allowed him 10 per
cent over wholesale prices.
