EMPLOYMENT OF DRINKING MEN.
An Interesting Inquiry by One O
 Uncle Sans Bureaus.

A circular, containing several i,.- qui1ies. was sent out by the Uni ,el States commissioner of labor sev al mon>hs ago to persons and companies employing large numDer Of men. The object of the investigation thus insti- tuted was 10 ascertain something about the relations O. the drink habit to la bor. Over sev5n thousand establish ments, which employ nearly two mil lion men, replied. The answers have almost the significance Of census. therefore. Commissioner Wright has just published a summary Cf them.
 Out cf 6.976 employss 5,363 said that they were accustomed to consider whether persCn was in the habi. of drinking when tney were asked to give any sort of g place. The employers who did not take. this matter into con- sidcratiOn numbered 1,G13. The indus tries represented in this repc4- were agriculture, manufactures, mining and quarrying, trade and transportation. The largest percentage of employers who inquired about drinking was among those engaged in trade and transportation.
 The means used 70 find cut about an applicants habits were usually direct inquiry, reputation and personal ap- pearance. The reasons assigned for taking a mans habits into consid-r- ation were to guard against acci- cents, because Cf responsibility of po- sition." and because Of unrc,iability Of drinking men, Dishonesty, abuse cf animals. the employers disgus, for drinking men. and the importance of example to other -mpioyes were also urged in explanation of the practice.
 h reply to the question whether men were likely tC spend their money on drink immediately aft5r drawing their pay, 3,S97 establishments sent an afr native answer, 2.766 a negative one, and 362 said nothing. Only a small number gave any data as to the means resorted to for the correction Of the evil. But discharge. chang: of the day for paying off, less frequent payment of wages and moral suasion were the chief remedies mentioned.-New York Tribune

Meaning the First Half of the Business
Year. as Bradstreet Thinks.
New York. July 2-Bradstreees saws:
The first half Of the year closes with
very satisfactory showing possible in
many lines of trade. as evidenced by
the returns of hank clearances. railroad
earnings. and by that infailible baro-
meter CT the mercantile world, business
failures. Harbingers CT the future are
found in the generally favorable crop
prospects. not only of cereals but of
cotton, fruits and most products of
agriculture, and a continued heavy
foreign demand for American products.
The situation in iren is a rather mixed
one, most complaints coming from the
west. Pig iron and steel rails reflect
the iesSened activity in shading of
prices.
Doubts are expressed as to the ability
of the pig iron makers to control
production, and the next two weeks
VIII probably be full OF interest to the
iron trade generally. The tone of the
wheat market continues bearish. Rather
less steadiness in prices is observable
most cereals. pork, lard. cotton, and
several makes OF pig iron being lower
for the week, while the list of advances
is exceedingly small. Steadiness has
been feature, however, of raw wool.
hides and heavy leather, coffee, sugar
and print cloths, copper and lead.
In spite of unfavOrable features there
were fewer failures, smaller liabilities
and consequently smaller assets this
year than in any previous year for four
years past. Business failures number
6.429, per cent. fewer than year ago:
Ii per cent. less than two years ago
and only per cent. larger than In 1898.
Liabilities, too. are smaller. aggregating
$I2,l20.341, % per cent. smaller than last
year; II per cent. smaller than two
years ago; 9.5 per cent. smaller than in
1895 and 81 per cent. below those of

Fear of the Terrible Typhoid.
The fear of typhoid still prevails in
the camp, ard Majors Parke and De-
vine, acting surgeons, have been in
vestigatfng conditions tending to pro-
duce this malady. One of these sur
geens said thas ''one patient could put
the whole camp on it's back" The
water supply is locked upon as the
principal source of danger. Some of the
wells are sunk to a depth of sixty-five
or seventy feet, but it is said to be
possible for the germ of typhoid to
reach that depth, owing to the sandy
nature of the soil.
VIII Report Direct TO Alger.
The surgeons making the investiga-
lions say that if when their report is
made Chief Surgeon Girard persists in
holding that the water is pure they
will forward their report to the war
department. General Goblin has prom
