THE OUTLOOK.

There is uuquestOnably considerable i'm
provemeut n the various business channels,
over the condition Of things that have existed
for the past three or four months. Every
thing indicates a marked improvement in
trtde for the summer, especially as soon as
the present tariff bill now in the hands of the
Senate becomes a law This is the consensus
Of opinion as expressed by the leading com
mercal and business men Of the market
centres.
There is also a noted improvement in coal
circles. The managers of the anthracite coal
roads say that they are much encouraged by
the improvement that is now evident in the
trade For the past fortnight there has
been an increased demand for all sizes,
and prices have hardened. Some of the
smaller concerns are believed to be shad-
ing prices still, but no complaints are
made against the strong companies. Prices
are not yet up to the circular, but tits ex-
pected that they will be by June 1. There
are differences Of opinion as TO whether there
will be an advance after that date.
Stove coal is now quoted AZ S4O5 "a a 10 a
ton. There is great scarcity Of buckwheat
and some other prepared sizes that are used
for steam. It is a common practice to mix a
small percentage of bituminous coal with the
anthracite to make steam, but the officials of
the anthracite companies do not admit
that the low prices of bituminous coal have
interfered seriously with their sales.
The April output Of anthracite coal was
about 2,5OOOOO tons, and it is estimated
that the market requirements for this
month win be about the same
If the anthracite coal companies restrict
production 10 ., 500. 600 tons in May they will
produce in the first five months of the year
l2,0lG,OOO tons. against 10 5s4 600 tons Of a
year ago or decrease OF 2,6ss 900 tons. If
the consumption continues at This rate
through the balance of the year, it viii be
the poorest in results to the coal companies
of any year since the old-time decentralization
and auction sales. It is claimed, however
that buyers win have to come into the
market and pay higher prices than they
paid last year, the restrictions Of production
having given the large companies the strong
est hold on the trade they have ever had.
Whether the year shall be fairly prosperous
or very poor one seems TO depend wholly
upon the demand and the solving Of the
question whether or not high prices for
anthracite have resulted i'm large substitution
of other fuels. Very little is said about cut
prices, about the only concessions reported
being 10 cents per ton.

Pennsylvania Judge.
New York May 6.-Louise Won Lin
dau, once q popular actress, has
brought suit for $4,000 against Judge
william A. Galbraith, Of Erie, Pa.
According to the woman's counsel,
Judge Galbraith induced Miss Lindau
to leave the stage and go to Europe

expense, the agreement being that
when she had completed her course
he should exploit her on the American
boards. She vas to receive $4,000 a
year, but 10 remittances came after
her arrival on the other side. s'hen she
was forced to pledge her vamables.
Soon after this she met with Sc
we're accident, and was sent to the
Havre hospital. one Of the surgeons
asked her to marry him. and in her
perplexity she conhded in the American
consul, Oscar T. williams, who com
municated with Judge Galbraith tell
ing him on behalf Of Miss Lindau
that if he would forward $1,000 she
woulS renounce all claims on him.
Judge Galbraith agreed to this, but he
failed to send the money. As a result
Miss Llndau broke off the engagement
returned to America, and now seeks
satisfaction
