DUN's REVIEW

New York, March H-R. G. Dun Co.'S weekly review of trade will say tomorrow:
 Business this year cannot be compared with any other. It can be said that pay ments through the principal clearing houses for the past week have been 57.4 per cent greater than in 1892, and 45.9 per cent. greater than in 1898, but that aggregates the gain in some branches of business, while in others it falls far short of the gain Thus the February exports of man ufactured products have about doubled since 1892. Omiting New York clearings, where speculation in stocks is most active, payments through the other principal clear ing houses for the same week show an in crease of 37.6 per cent. over 1892, and 27.1 per cent. over last year. But without re- gard to such details all realize that the volume of business in all branches is the greatest ever known. The national pros perity rests on more solid foundations. The exports of breadstuffs, provisions cotton and oil in February showed a decrease Of $6, ,O00, 900, but other exports, mainly manu- factured, were $36, ,4O6, ,9i3 in value, against $31, ,275,3 396 last year, and were sufficiently large to cover sixty per cent. of the entire imports.

Merchandise Exports

The merchandise exports exceeded for the month $33, ,634, ,117, the gold supply increased, and there appears no occasion for none tary disturbances. The treasury recorded it's payment of the $59, ,000,O 900 for the Central Pacific railroad, having previously receiv- ed the same amount for the Union Pacific, and over $6 000, 900 for the Kansas Pacific.
 Swiftly rising quotations for iron and its products would mislead if 1t were not kept in mind that more than nine-tenths of iron manufacture capacity is engene- dered until July or later in the execution of orders taken months ago at low prices. If million tons of products go out this month, 900, 900 at such prices as SIS to $20 for steel rails at which the entire output of the Illinois Steel company for the year was sold some time ago, it hardly indicates the true character of the iron business that less than 100000 tons are going out at such prices as $26 to s2S per ton for steel rails for small lots this week. Related buy CTS now have to pay fancy prices to get orders accepted at all. Withdrawal or postponement of business because of high prices begins to be a significant feature, and much foreign business Is evidently lost, though there are still sales for export to South America.
 The Connellsville Coke works, with an output of 167 900 tons weekly and many op- erating Sundays to catch up with orders, have advanced prices only 15 cents.

Wool Sales at Chief Markets

Wool sales at the three chief markets have been only 4,O35 500 pounds, of which 2761 300 pounds were domestic, against D. 07S, 200 pounds in the same week of 1892, of which 3.507 200 were domestic. But prices are soft, and some dealers are said to have yielded as much as 2 to cents per pound because nobody can guess what effect the new combina tion may have. Prices are largely nominal, and yet there Is a some what better demand for goods. Nor has the strong demand for cotton been helped by the weaker market for cotton, which has fallen to 6.37 cents in spite of a volume of reports about the bad condition of the late picked product The price of goods has been strongly advanced and is held, but yet depends on the price of cotton. The market which has lost more and which had least statistical reason to lose is wheat but no estimate of wheat in farmers hands March 1 would provide more than about last years exports and domestic de- mand to July 1. The actual exports, flour included, from both coasts during the past two weeks have been 7,956, ,93S bushels, against 1867 ,S92 bushels last year. But such exports imply foreign demand, wHlch Is not unlikely to exceed last years and the corn exports are also little larger than last year. The western receipts for the week have been 3,359,O00 bushels against 2537. .666 bushels last year.
 Failures for the week have been 1S9 in the United States against POS last year, and S0 In Canada against N last year.

A Prfnce,s Dilemma

The German emperor likes to study
the characters of his group Of small
sons, and to that end has given them a
room next to the one used for business
purposes for himself. A certain great
scientific man, having on one occasion
an interview with the emperor, left his
hat in the adjoining vestibule. There
the little brothers discovered it; and
the crown prince, explaining to the
younger ones that papa" sometimes
sat on his opera hat and it came out all
right again, proceeded to give a prac-
tical illustration of this statement, to
the ruin Of the beaver. The emperor's
door suddenly opened, and papa" and
the professor appeared. Like manly
little fellow, the crown prince owned
up, apologized to the laughing profess
sor and went off to buy for the old gen
tleman new hat with his small pocket

Better Paw at Once.

A question has arisen in the minds
of the city officials as to whether the
time for the collection Of taxes can be
extended as has been the custom here
tofore. The original time set by the
treasurer is thirty days from the time
he receives the tax rolls, and this
period has always been extended thirty
days by the common council, giving
altogether two months in which to
complete the work. 1t is claimed that
change made by the last legislature
in the general charter law was meant
to limit the tax collecting time to
thirty days, but it is also claimed that
another provision of the last legisla-
ture grants time until January 81 Of
every year The whole matter seems
to be in a muddle and we do not pre-
tend to understand the question at all
or to be able to shed any light on it.
Perhaps the safest way will be for tax
payers to meet their obligations at
the earliest possible moment and not
delay the payment until after January

INSTITUTE is NO MORE.
The Wisconsin Bible Institute Closes Its
Work and Will Remove from
the CitV.

the Clty.
A few DAYS ago a handbill distrib
uted about the city announcing an
auction sale of household furniture,
utensils and furnishings at the Wiscon-
sin Bible institute in the Fifth ward
caused no little interest among many
of our citizens and was the occasion of
considerable comment. From this
handbill. it appears. the impression
was first gained that the institute was
about to go out of business-that it's
goods and chattels were to be knocked
down to the highest bidder and its
doors closed on the good work it had
sought to accomplish. 1t will be re-
membered that the institute was To-
Gated here in the spring of 1897 by a
popular movement of our people and
the old Faith Home building furnished
for the use of the Institute by personal
subscriptions amounting to over 5000.
Of course, these subscriptions were
given freely and without reservation,
many being actuated in their dona-
tions by the suppositfon that the
movement was for the material inter-
ests of WatertOwn and that the inSGl
tute was to be permanent affair.
Others no doubt gave solely from
philanthrOphic standpoint and perhaps
cared not for any material results to
the city. Now, after an existence Of
two and one-half years, the institute
people dispose of the donations. shake
the dust of Watertown from their feet
and decamp for other fields, all Of
which they without doubt have a per-
feet right to do, but not without caus-
ing a ripple of interest and some
words of comment not altogether
| favorable.
In letter to The Daily Times Rev.
j. r. Pratt, president OF the institute,
seems to look upon the matter IN the
| light that their contract with the
people OF Watertown has been fulfilled; !;
| that they came here under agreement
for only a specified time, and that
they have only been waiting for this
time 60 elapse before departing. He
considers that their work in this city
is finished and that their only desire
now is to leave with clean hands and
no unsettled accounts.
