Dry Goods.

NEW YORK. Oct. 25.-There was the usual
scarcity of mail orders in the dry goods market
to-day and the store trading continued fairly
heavy. The interest shown by visiting buyers has
been greater during yesterday and to-day than
recently The reports from retailers in all sec
lions have been of backward season, but the
prospect Of colder weather has aided store trading
locally. The gains were chiefly in cotton goods,
the situation in wooens of all sorts being still
unsatisfactory one. The market for print cloths
was reported firm, with small sales of extras
only. Staple cottons were quiet In most grades.
The demand for brown goods for domestic con-
sumption was reported fairly active. Export lines
of brown sheetings and ducks were in continued
fair request. The exports during the past week
were fairly heavy.

Football for gentlemen.
Kansas City Journal.


Gentlemen can play football" says the
Christian Register. and make it one Of
the best forms of athletic exercise: but no
rules yet devised can teach rowdies to play
that game i'm other than disgusting and
dangerous fashion" That is about the
size of the matter 1t is certainly a glor~
ious and manly game when played by gen.
where gentlemen have played it, The thing
for college faculties TO do in the case is
to make one rule and hold to 1t: that none
but gentlemen shall be permitted to repre-
sent their institutions on the gridiron 1t
might be trifie difficult to get an examin-
ing committee to apply this test But there
is one hing that could be done. When a
player has once proven himself guilty of
an ungentlemanly act on the field, or else
where, he should be disqualified quite as
quickly as for professionalism Indeed pro-
fessionalism is less harmful than ungentle-
manliness

JOINT TRAFFIC DECISION
POSSIBLE EFFECTS HAD TO SOME
EXTENT BEEN DISCOUNTED.
The Presidents VIII at Once Ask Con-
greSs to Pass an Act LegaIizing the
Pooling of All Traffic.

The first railroad pool was organized in
Indianapolis, and volney T. MaIott, now
receiver of the Vandala, was elected it's
commissioner The pool comprised twelve
roads, and was known as the Chicago &
Ohio River Association Pool. For this rea-
son the views OF Mr. Malott on the de-
cision of the United States Supreme Court
as to the legality of the Joint Traffic Asso-
citation are interesting, as Mr. Malott has
been identified much of the time since with
the pooling question. In conversation yes
terday he said: 1.-The effect OF the deci-
sion of the Supreme Court of the United
States, declaring the joint Traffic Associa-
tion to be Illegal organization, has, TO
some extent, been discounted. Since the
transmissouri case was decided there has
been but little hope that the Joint Traffic
Association would escape condemnation on
the same grounds. The ultimate purpose
in both cases was the maintenance of uni
form rates and regulations, and it is the
combination to effect this purpose that is
condemned. 1t will not be seriously con-
tended that the maintenance of stable and
equal rates can be anything but beneficial,
alike to the railroads and the community they
serve; and agreements such as this. which
now comes under the ban, are feared more
for their potential evil than for any that
actually exists, or to the well informed
seems likely to occur. If there is to be an
orderly exchange of commodities between
the markets of this country, and between
our markets and those of other countries,
there must necessarily be an adjustment of
prices at the different places, and of rates
between them that is to say, the compe-
titon of markets requires a system of
freight rates reasonably well maintained on
which the differences in prices can be es-
tablished. Otherwise merchants i'm any one
city might find their trade taken away from
them and their business destroyed by the
independent action of railroad carrier
remote from them. and which has no inter-
est in their well-being, az the local car
rierS have The interdependence of prices
and rates between the various sections of
the country renders ii imperative that there
be understanding between railroads as
a formal agreement cannot be made by
which those situated in any given terri
tory can act as a unit through an associa-
tion formed on the lines of the Joint Traf-
railroad companies to devise some means
within the law as now construed, or here
after amended. by which the business con
vulsons that would inevitably follow in
while difficult. they will in the end I'M
dOubtedly be able to do. 1t Is possible that
Congress may at an early day recognize
the valid business reasons that exist for
" enforceable agreements. with one an
other, having for their purpose the fixing
and maintaining of unifom rates and reg
ulations under the supervision and with
Commissions; and-this would seen to be
the best way out of the difficulty"

Auuidudpois ihu., Oct- -, 1880.
We had good receipts-about one-fourth of all
the hogs here. Were way short mediums and
heavies. Had orders for ten double decks OF
butcher hogs. and only able to get four.
Mediums and heavies sold at So 7043.75 and lights
at $3.50 to $50. We also short pigs.
Could have used all the healthy pigs here at
$3.50 to 1910. Look for a steady market for a
few days You must have good margin to stand
another decline. The trust still determined TO put
US out of business They don't want any COM
petition, and wanted to make us weigh on scales
that were admitted wrong. Be sure and send
your best hogs to us. We want them 10 I'LL
butcher orders. We have always paid the best
price for the best hogs.

Wire and Wire Nails.

PITTSBURG, Oct. pat a meeting of
the wire and wire nail manufacturers held
price of wire nails cents per keg and to
advance the price of galvanized wire, both
smooth and barbed, cents per one hundred
pounds. This latter action was taken on ac-
count of the enormous rise in the price of
spelter which is now worth $50 per ton
more than at this time year ago, and is
still advancing. Existing prices, with
these exceptions, were reaffirmed. The
changes go into effect forthwith.
