BUSINESS OUTLOOK.
HaIIowell Can See Much Brighter Prospects
in the Near Future.

The volume of bushes stransacted at
the freight department of the local
Maine Central depot, is far greater at
the present time. than during a decade
or more of proceeding years. 1t is true
that trade in general way has sell
dom descended to q lower condition
of inaction than the fall months of
September and October have witnessed,
but the railroad and steamboat lines
are not suffering at all from the de-
preston which so evidently effects the
workingman. The Hallowell Granite
Works are employing their minimum
number of men al the city sheds, at
present, there being one crew of ii cut
ters, with one sharpener and the usual
crew of HELPERS and shippers. At the
quarries of the company a large crew
of men are at work and a large guam
toty of grout" is daily quarred and
sent to the city to be shipped to Water
vile. From four to six cars of ''grout"
are shipped every day.
On Thursday. three cars of finished
stone for the Boston Masonic Temple
We're shipped also three cars of paving
blocks for the city of Portland. Other
shipments include one carload of sand
paper from the Boston Flint Paper Co.
for Chicago. one car of oil cloth from
the Wilder factory. for ST. Louis and 4
large shipments of shoes for the Wes-
tern states, from johnson Bros. Dur
ing the month of October 125 cars have
been forwarded to Waterville.
In many respects it seems that the
local business prospects are better at
the present time than at any previous
time during the fall. The oil cloth
trade appears to be better and there is
reason to believe that the sandpaper
industry will continue it's present nor
NAL output. A good deal of uncertain
ty centers over the granite industry
but the cutters are hopeful of the usual
amount of work for the winter months.
While the officials, although very re-
served as to future prospects, are in
clined to look into the future with con-
fdence. The usual number employed
at the city sheds is between $50 and
300 while the number now at work is
below 90
The boot and shoe market is without
animation but fair number of orders
are coming in and about the usual
number Of people will soon be employ
ed. The latest market reports show
that women's shoes are taken more
freely than mems and in a general
way large business has already been
secured on the former.
The print block industry has receiv-
ed welcome stimulus from the New
York oil cloth trade within a few

cortege and while the funeral march was
being played repeated the part of the ser

FOR MALICIOUS MISCHIEF.
Private Knights and Geo. Ducet Pay RoundIy
for Their Fun.

Charles Knights, member of Bat
terry Is, and George Ducet were before
Judge Larrabee. Thursday, for mali
cious mischief. They were fined IS and
costs amounting to $10.51.
Knights came to Gardiner, Tuesday
evening. and straightway became in
toxicated. He told Ducct that he was
a government official and wanted his
assistance in running down some de-
serters.
Ducet believed the story and together
the two went to the home of Nelson
Campbell on Middle street and sought
admittance. They told their story and
demanded that every trunk in the
house be opened in order that they
might see of a deserter was concealed
there. Finally they came to the trunk
whose key could not be found. They
did not linger. however, but broke it
open.
After the party left Mr.. Campbell
began to think that he had been the
object af drunken jolly and he pro-
cured warrants for the arrest of the
two imaginary detectives.
In court, DHcet paid his fine, but
Knights was obliged to send for Cap
tain Hume of Battery b. The captain
arrived in the afternoon, and paying
the fine took the soldier back to camp.

statement to the effect that Col George
z. Warrington, Jr., who recently re-
turned to New York on the steamer
Yucatan from Cuba and went directly
to his house at 175 Second avenue i'll,
he's yellow fever.
1t was supposed at first that Col.
Waring had malarial fever. Today,
his physician, DIR. Daniel II. Stimson,
rcnprted to the board of health that
coz Warning was suffering from some
sdspicious disease.
Inspector Blauvelt of the health de-
paftmgt, and DR.. White OF the marine
hosptal, who was formerly in charge
Of tl3elkeiiow fever camp at Fontain-
bleas14fTa.. at once accompanied Dr.
StinsqEb Cox Warnings house and
MADE anrexaminatioIs
They returned at o'clock in the
afternooR and mode another examine
ton. They diagnosed the case as yell
low fever. Col. 8Waring's temperature
in the morning was 103 1-3 degrees and
in the afternoon, 1O2 As degrees.
In the opinion of the physicians the
case is not a malignant one and Col
Warnings chances for recovery are
good. There is no danger of the spread
of the disease in this city, on account
of the cold weather.
