Dry Goods.

New York. Sept. 2.-The dry goods situ- alton is still a strong one. The demand for goods is well sustained, though not as heavy in all grades as was the case last week It was thought however, that as- ter the distribution of goods at second orders would reach an enormously large ca.lbre. This ig based on the eonsump- tive demand which is of steady char acter and bids fair to give a continued outlook for stock shsd by manufacturers and jobbers. In staple cottons the mar ket is firm. The bleachers and brown goods are good. Printed cloths show much active bidding in outside markets, but the marufa cturers refuse to part with goods for futures at 2ssc and buyers were unwilling to advance their bids Ihe sales for the week average well with cur rent weeks at this season. P1i ts are stilf very strong in all grades Both fame es and staples are bought steadily and ad vances are still looked for in certain quar- ters. Robes, draperss ard the like are firm and steady. Glnghams are firm.

The FOURTH AT WILLRoY's-The
intensely hot weather on Saturday
and the farmers being behind with
their work operated To diminish
the size of the crowd that has here
tofore attended the annual celebra-

The White Sulphur Band, en-

mishap on the way there by an
oyerturn of their wagon. bruising
more or less all of the band boys,
breaking the arm of John Gopher
and breaking the collar-bons and
injuring the spine of Henry Hicks,
the wagon driver.

HeW England Women.
THEY ARE PRACTICAL
WORKERS, AND ARE A
SOURCE OF STRENGTH
AND WEALTH.

Not many women living or Mis-

ed to the rigorous economy and
hard work done by their country
sisters in New England. The latter
not only do their own work but they
are able and willing to milk the
cows and assist with the hay-get-
ting and in other ways lend "A hand
out of doors in emergencies. Some
of them even exc out the family in
come by little ventures of their own,
such as raising hens and bees and
gathering and marketing spruce
gum, beechnuts and blueberries.
There Is no servant girl problem,
because there are no servants.
When sickness or some other real
disability necessitates female help
in the household IA neighbor's
daughter is called in. She is, of
course. regarded, and in every min
utest particular, as member of the
family it could not he otherwise.

CRoP Notes.-The weather since
the wheat was harvested has been
all that could be desiredto cure out
the wheat in the shock.
With the fine wheat crop our far
mers will have considerable surplus
to market, which will put some
more of those 200-cent dollars into
circulation.
The shrill whistle of the steam
thresher is already punctuating the
atmosphere.
Oats harvest will be on next week.
The crop will be only medium
one.
The farmers have generally got
their corn worked since the heavy
rains. 1t has a good color and the
prospect for good crop is fine so
far.
Last week was favorable for saw
ing clover hay. Timothy meadows
are generally very foul with white
top and other weeds.
Blackberries are being freely
gathered and made into preserves
jam, jelly or canned plain, to have
something nice to eat when Ole
Crimp comes.
Tomatoes will be late this sea
son getting ripe for the table.
The potato crop promises to b'
very fine.
Interviews with farmers from
different parts of the county brini
out the information that the stant
of tobacco is very bad. Many o
the plants died because of their be
ing set out when too small In tn
eagerness to get out the small GRO
in time. There is some complain
of wire worm working on tn
| roots of the plants and killing then
The very hot weather, too, ma
have much to do with the plant
dying. At best the crop will be
light one. The 1896 tobacco is yer
nearly all sold, the unsold crop
being scattering.

Chesapeake and Ohio Ry.'s
New Entrance to New York.
Inc of the greatest improvements

One of the greatest improvements
ever made for the convenience of
passengers to and from New York
City has just been completed. A
new high-speed Ferry service has
been established from the big Jer-
sey City depot to the foot of 23d
street in New York City, where a
handsome Ferry House has been
erected, with commodious waiting
rooms, baggage room and all con-
veniences of modern Union Depot.
The Ferries used between Jersey
City and 23d street are just from
the ship builder, and are all that
can be embodied in modern up-to-
date passenger steamers. They
are large ''double deckers," and the
landings on both sides of the river
are so constructed that passengers
can 90 aboard or ashore from both
decks at once, thus saving the trou-
BILE and annoyance of going up or
down IA crowded stairway.
In connection with the 23d Street
Station IL line of hansoms and car
riages has been established that
will take passengers to or from any
part of New York City; II charge
of 25 cents per passenger for u mile
or fraction is made. Trunks will
be taken with passengers in four
wheel carriages at 1G Cents each.
The charge for passenger in four
wheel carriages is 40 cents ou same
distance basis as hansoms. Nalises
are taken charge of by driver in
either hanson or carriage at . cents
each; no charge for valises carried
in hand.
This new station is in addition
to the Courtland and Debrosses
| Street stations; these are still In
use for persons going direct to the
lower, or business, end of New
York City, but for persons desiring
to 90 first to the hotel district the
23d Street station fills every need,
landing passengers only few
blocks from Fifth Avenue and
Broadway. Every prominent hotel ii
within easy reach. Passengers leav'
ing Lexington on the Chesapeake
and Ohio Limited Vestibuled trains
have the comfort of riding in
through sleepers to New York
without change, making from three
to five hours quicker time than via
any other line.

ToBlCCo REPORT. - EXPRESSLY
FOR The OUTLOOK pr j. 5. PHELrs
& CO., PLANTERsWAREHoUsE.--Lou-
isvi!i., Ky, July Sd, lSo7.--Thr
stead = .4-.,.aace which xe haze been
able TO report for the past two
months was checked this week We
hope, by the large offerings and eX-
cessively hot weather. Some to-
bacco sold as high as it did last
week, but there were times during
the latter part when buyers were
able 10 get the grades selling be-
tween So and $l2 on better terms
than they could last week. The
good and fine leaf selling from $l7
To S23 seems 10 US strong as it has
been. The offerings on last We'd
nesduy contained large proper
ton of good and fine tobaccos and
$25 per hundred was paid for one
hid. This is the highest price paid
for the '96 crop in any market. The
low grades with some color were
irregularly lower at times during
the week, but when they appeared
in perfect condition and the color
was clear and decided they brought
as much money as they have at any
time during the year. The common
red trashes suitable only for smok-
ers were dull and few bids lower.
The percentage of reflections to
auction sales this week was twenty
three. This shows plainly that sell
ers do not like the market as well
as they did during the month OF
June.
We cannot see any change in tho
better grades of Dark leaf or the
long tobacco suitable for our re
handlers. The common nondescrip'
sorts and Spanish lugs seem to u'
less active than last week. Th'
common Green Rivers selling be
tween $3.50 and $3.50 sold abou
like they did last week. The order
for these at present seem to be lin
tied in price to about seven cents

The New York Commercial Ad-
vertiser criticises the judgment of
the Court of Appeals of Kentucky
in it's decision with regard to build
ing and loan associations, and says
it is holding the law "strictly to
its letter." where the great benefits
derived from the associations by
the people are not considered. 1t
says: 1T is probably true that the
members may have paid more than
the legal rate of interest, but it will
strike many people as perversion
of terms to call it usury. BY the
payment of this 'usury' they have
been enabled to build homes and
save rent" 1t adds that "It would
be exceedingly unfortunate if the
Kentucky decision should be fol-
lowed by similar yerdicts in other
! States"
When a man, or woman either,
contracts and promises TO do GER
tain thing it is but just and right
that the courts should hold the
party to the performance. This
squirming out of paying an hone ST
debt by pleading "usury" should
be set down ON by the courts. The
building and loan laws aud opera
tions are for the public good, as
we'll as for private benefit, and We
hope that the Court Of Appeals viii
take back its recent decision and
hold the law to be good, and thus
compel all stockholders to the per
formance,Df their contracts. 1t i:
