10 tne f<ltor ol Inc Evenlng star:
While waiting for a connection between
the air line and trolley branch of the Eek
ington and Soldiers Home railroad this
morning at the New York and Florida ave-
rue junction, j endeavored to kill time by
taking account of the antique furniture
in the movable waiting station anchored
on wheels at that point for the accommo-
dation and amusement of the patrons of
the liue, and the following is a partial list
Of the rare OLD curios which the station
contained:
Two pairs of swingle trees two drivers
seats, two old stools, one pair of traces a
piece of trolley wire several feet in length
two pairs OF names, one brake handle a
half dozen oil lamps, one coupling iron
two feet long, and several other pieces Of
bric-a-brac.
All that was needed, apparently to COM
plete the historical old collection with
which the station was ornamented was an
etching OF ye ancient hof Sc. a group picture
of the management of the road and a copy

BosToN, Mass, May 2I 1897.
Commercial business drags along in a
listers sort OF way and merchants gen.
orally are still waiting for the passage OF
the new tariff bill before embarking on
new lines. There now IL some hope that
the tariff question will be settled by con-
gress before the first Of July, but by that
time, the summer season of dullness will
be made an excuse for the unsatisfactory
condition OF trade. One factor IN the
situation. which attests the dullness of
the times, is the decrease in the clearing
thOuse exchanges reported from week to
week. In some, localities increases are
reported, but the general result Of all the
cities shows a falling Off This il espec-
sally true in manufacturing centers, and
many mills either are shut down alto
gether or running on half time. The
shoe manufacturers are doing fair bust
nees. but the cotton goods mills are
Scorcely able TO get enough work to
keep half the force busy. The announce
srlent made by the Z. Howard watch and
Cock company that il has suspended the
manufacture OF watches until the times
are better il significant. This firm went
into the bicycle business and finds that
the only department in which it can keep
all its employees at work all the time.
The wool men have a problem before
Cuern. they have 10 far this year consid.
eraby more than years supply OF wool
on account OF the proposed duties TO be
aeyied on that commodityin the new tar
IN bill. How prices will act until this
sarge supply Of wool is marketed il I'M
certain, but predictions OF lower prices
are freely made. The total value of inn
ports at the port OF New York last week
were 81 600, 900 less than the week i'm
mediateiy preceding and 81 ,O0O, 900 less
thsn two weeks previous. This would seem

the exports are large and the bulk OF the

talked OF in some cases and there il good
reason for believing that the talk is not
idle gossip. The Montana is earning
nearly, ii not fully, 500 per share and

in this direction would not be surprising.
