The total liabilities for the year are

commercial death. rate was, in 1896,
LAO per cent, by which is meant that
Lao per cent. of every 100 individuals,
firms and corporations in business last
year failed. This death rate was ex-
eeeded only by that in 1898, when it was,
Isl per cent. In 1895 the commercial
death rate was>L23, and in 1894, 1.21 per;

The demand for Mr. Cages appoint
7rnent comes from nearly every com
szecciaI center in the country, and
FROM men of both parties. He is in
tfocsed not only by the business world,
bzS by many labor organizations as
UetL The direct claim is made in
nearly all of the mass of letters and
ztefcgrams which have reached Maj.
Mckinley respecting Mr.. Gage that
: the direct effect of his appointment
vEiu be to hasten and render certain
the restoration of confidence.
Maj Mckinley has been thinking
4aboat Mr.. Gage for several weeks in
connection with the treasury port
fnlio. but had been led to believe that
he coud not accept it. 1t has also
been Maj. McKinley's intention from
the day he was elected to choose a
western man for secretary of the
TREASURY if he could find an availa BILE
'nzaal- Mr.. Gage meets all of the re-
-4airemeats, but his appointment does
mot REM ove from the list of cabinet
possibilities the name of Charles
Eu1orF Smith, who would in all prob
aSHiGy have been made secretary of
stale if the Office had been filed by
3he appointment of an eastern man.
e may be safely assumed that Maj.
Mckinley has decided at present upon
&ax men for his cabinet, though he has
not formally rendered all of them
? SLrtfolIos. The men who are regarded
as certain of appointment are: John
sherman. Lyman J. Gage, Nathan
Son. Joseph McKenna, John d. Long
and James Wilson, of Iowa, for secre-
GarF of agriculture.
GeA- r. A. Ayers appointment as
secretary of war is probable. but by
no means certain. The one remaining
portfolio which is not likely to be
Es.adered before the middle or last of
February will doubtless go to New
Yorker or q Pennsylvania.
AIR Gage said yesterday afternoon,
and authorized the United Associated
Presses to quote: IL have been tend
erred die appointment of secretary of
the treasury by Maj. Mckinley and
have accepted it"

VIII Entertain the West Point Cadets Free
OF Charge
WASHINGTON, Jan 30.-The secre-
tary of war some time ago arranged
for the West Point cadets to come to
Washington and participate in the in
augural ceremonies on the 4th, of
March. A controversy arose over the
expenses of the trip, and it became
necessary that some arrangements be
made for their subsistence while here.
Congress has SO far failed to make.
an appropriation for that purpose and
yesterday Mr.. H c. Burch, manager
of the Ebbitt house, where Mai, Nc
Kinley will have his headquarters,
wrote to Secretary Lamont offering to
entertain the cadets free of charge at
that hotel during their stay here.
The question of transportation, it is
understood, rests with the war de
partment, as a sufficient amount Is
RHaila bic for that purpose.

SALT LAKE, Utah, Jan. 30.-Bar-
tholomew Race, of Goshen. this state,
yesterday shot and killed his wife and
then put bullet through his own
head with fatal results. Mrs. Race
was sick in bed, having only p hours
before given birth to a child. When
the nurse temporarily left the house
Race told his wife that he was going
to kill himself and that as he did not
want to leave her. he had made up his
mind to kill her also.
The children say their mother
pleaded piteously for her life, but
their father put a pistol to her head
and blew out her brains, and then
turned the weapon upon his own tenn
pie. The powder ignited the bed
clothes, and the new born-baby and
their eight other children who were
locked in the room were narrowly
saved from cremation by the neig h

iAer fuckers report to the comp

analysis of it is as follows:
The statement shows too much

too weak. The total resources are
