prcme court has reversed judgment in the

j. Symes, appellant. Symes was convict
ed of murder in the second degree in Ad-

SLIDER THE CURRENCY.
perts From All Parts of
the World.

Indianapolis, Sept l8.-Hugh Hanna,
chairman of the monetary executive com.
mittee announces the completion of the
commission, acceptance having been re-
ceived from Louis A. Garnet of San
Francisco and J. L. Laughlin Of Chicago
Prof. Laughlin is one Of the best known
political economists of the country, and
during the past few years his writings
upon financial questions have attracted
worldwide attention. He was for many
years president of the Manufacturers In
surance Company of Philadelphia, and

vative and successful business man. He
left this position to take the chair of po-
litical economy in the Chicago university

years abroad in travel and study of finan-
cial and economic questions. Returning
to San Francisco, he organized the great
reduction works known as the Selby
smelter, with which he has since been
connected. He has made valuable con.
tributions to the literature Of finance, and
is much consulted by the large b1siness
interests of the Pacific slope. e:either he
nor Prof. Laughlin are men Of wealth,
and in consenting to serve upon the COM
mission, none of whose members are COM
pensated, they make considerable per-
sonal sacrifice.

appointments, is composed as follows: Ex-
Senator George F. Edmunds of Vermont,
Charles s. Fairchild of New York. ex-
secretary Of the treasury; G. Stewart Pat
terson OF Philadelphia, who was presi-

of st. Paul, wholesale hardware mer-
chant; r. f. Taylor of Fort Wayne, law
yer; Louis Garnet of San Francisco,
Prof. j. l.. Laughlin of Chicago, and

AN INCREASE OF BUSINESS.
Further Rising Tide Of Demand for
Iron and Steel Products.

New York, Sept. Is. - Bradstreet
says:
Notwithstanding unsea sonable weather
and the appearance of yellow fever IN
several gulf states, checking locally the
distribution of merchandise, business
throughout the country has increased
more than anticipated. The center OF
improvement is Chicago, which furnishes
the most favorable trade review. Ad-
vices from Kansas City, Omaha, st. Paul
and St. Louis also reflect activity in de-
mand among jobbers and wholesalers
There is temporary stimulus to bust
ness at Savannah owing to the withdraw
al of competition from merchants at
towns cut off by the fever quarantine.
Chattanooga, Memphis, Atlanta, Angus
ia, Galveston and even st. Louis antici
pate a temporary falling off in business
owing to the interruption of traffic in the
gulf states and adjoining territory. The
principal settlement of the bituminous
coal strike, a further rising tide of de-
mand for iron and steel products. the
withdrawal from the market of some
manufactures of wOolens, extraordinary
large bank clearings and reports that
mercantile collections have improved, con-
stitute the features of the week.
There were 100 business failures report
ed throughout the United States this
week, compared with It's last week, 3l5
in the week a year ago, 2lS two years
ago, and like number three years ago,
and Us compared with 346 in the second
week of September, 1893. There are SO
business failures reported from Canada
this week, against 80 last week and Al
in each of the corresponding weeks in
1896.
