A Aspecial correspondent to tho Associated
Press, who Is visiting the distressed provin-
ces OF India, has arrived at Bljapur, about
$40 miles southeast Of Bombay. and finds In
this district tho keencst distress, especially
among tho people OF the lower castos. These

saved from II by the government relief work,
which enables them 10 earn money enough
TO at leaet kccp body and soul together while
awaiting tho brighter state OF Affairs which
recent rains nro expected TO provide later In
the year
II Is estimated that fully one-tenth OF the
cattle In this district hnye already perlsbed
from lack OF fodder and tho loss from this
cause will undoubtedly bo considerably In
creased between now and the growing OF the
new crops. In tho fields can be seen lying
numbers OF carcasses OF animals being de-
voured by vutures. There are many gangs
OF robbers engaged In pllaglDg grain stores,
whenever an opportunity nrlses and the
prisons are full OF thieves who have been
crptured while stealing grain or In attempt
Ing to do so. Among the masses there are
many cases OF illness, arising from lack OF
proper nourishment ani emaciation. and IL
IL regarded rs certain that cholera will reach
this district sooner or later, owing to tho
cnrelessness OF the people, who dread being
taken to tho hospitals provided for their
care, believing that they are certain 20 die,
within fortnight OF tho tlmo they enter a
hospital.
Beyond doubt, the utmost resources Of tho
government will be taxed before long In the
efforts which Will have TO be made TO cope
with tho steady Increasing distress.

TOO MUCH SPECULATION.
Comptroller ecklss Say the Money Prob
lem IL n5t the Oouutry's Trouble.

Comptrolleyof tho Currency Eckels gave
his Views upon tho financial condition OF the
country to the House committee on banking
and currency. Several bills introduced by
members OF tho house bad boen referred TO
Mr. Eckles for his judgment.
While there wns no doubt OF tho necessity
Tor changce In tho government financial sys-
TEN, MIR. Eckels said tho public was dlsyos-
cd TO attribute too much OF tho existing
troubles to the lack OF monetary legislation.
Oyertrade, overproduction and ertravagancc
IN private and public expenditures, partly
Induced by speculation, were largely rospon-
slble Tor tho country's business dlfrlcutIos.
Tho day has passed when tho volume OF
money was its most important factor. In
proved facilities for transportation and
methods OF exchange had lesscned tho i'm
portance OF n large volume. Tho apparent
reluctance OF tho people OF tho United States
to redeem their public obligations was the
chief cause Of distress.
The current redemption Of tho demand oh
legations OF the government was tho chief
problem OF tho treasury. Tho funding and
cancellation Of these obligations so that tho
maintenance OF a gold reserve would bo no
longer necessary was the most desirable
policy; whether II was the most practical
one was question. SO far as tho contrac-
ton OF the currency was concerned, Mr..
Eckles did not think IL would follow grad
uai retirement OF tho greenback. provided
credit was reasonably stable. Banks would
supply the needed currency or gold would
como from abroad. Tho pursuance Of Sec-
retary McCulloch's policy would havo dlspos-
OF the question. Mr.. Eckels added, "hny
business man who constantly redeems his
notes without retiring them, and keeps them
out constantly, will come 20 n settling day
that will break him. Tho chief feature OF u
banking bill would DO TO take from the gov
crnmont tho issue OF credit notes. Tho banks
can do this"
Banks conducted on practical business
principles Instead OF as speculative enter
prises. Mr. Eckles said, could satisfy the cur
rency neods Of business Before tho war
the banks had always furnished sufficient
gold for business.

A DISAPPOINTING MONTH.
Tho Big Gain Looked for in January Did
Not Come.

Not Come.
II. q. Dun n Co.'S weekly review OF trade
says; January has been n month Of disap-
pointment. Nearly everybody had promised
himself n land OF milk and honey after New
Years, and the slow progress looks like
standing still to men In such state OF mind.
Moreover, there aro multitudes throughout
tho country who have been taking large
ventures In advance OF or apart from their
regular business, because they expected q
riso In prices. But prices fail rs vet TO bring
them profit. Yet during the past week the
record shows that 10 iron works have start
ed, and only two have stoppedi 10 woollen
mills have started and nine more are about
ready to start, while three have stopped.
The decline In wheat was over &c. In JAN
uary 7,S4s, 1877 bushels OF corn have gone
abroard from Atlantic ports, against 6,3O6,
3i8 bushels last year. while Atlantic exports
OF wheat and -four have been 1885, l5f BUSH
els, against &, ,403, 7G5 bushels last year. TAX
ings OF cotton by northern spinners have
been In fye months A. 900 bales less than last
year, and 423, 900 less than In i804-95. Sales
OF wool In January have never been sur
passed In any other month except last Noy-
ember and July OF 1895 and 1892. The price
has remained about steady.
ron and steel show little gain, .produc..
tion having increased SO heavily before, and
the gradual enlargement OF demand for I'M
ishsd products has not overtaken that In
crease. Lower prices result for BessemeI
pig, for gray force, for southern iron nt
Chicago, for angle and for cut nails, and
the average OF all quotations is the lowest
since early last year. For sheets there is an
active demand, and 1t Is better also for bars
on account OF much car-building. Tin and
copper are shade stronger, but competition
causes sales OF tin plates 10 to i5c below the
agreed price.
Failures for the week have been 33l In the
United states, against 404 last year.

They, however, reside In the immediate

man TO Mrs. McCallum. The social connection
OF the sherman family at tho Capital
