BRADSrREET'S REVIEW

New York, July 21.-Bradstreet's tomor- row will say:
 The general trade situation has appar- ently lost nothing in strength. The aggre- gate midsummer business is of an un- precedented volume, and signs of expan- sion in the demand for fall and winer goods increase. Prices, except for the cereals, coffee, raw sugar and some dairy prod ucts are either firmly held or tend up- ward. Notably among those advancing are pork products, petroleum, copper, tin, tin plates and raw wool, while the list of prod ucts unchanged includes refined sugar. hides, leather, lead and cotton.
 The crop prospects are encouraging the movement of grain to market is in immense volume and railroad earnings consequently continue to show large increases over pre- ceding years.
 The corn yield in Kansas particularly promises to be enormous, always provid- Ing that hot winds don't affect the crops.
 Iron and steel retain all of their old strength, and while prices at the east are unchanged, further advances in crude and manufactured material are noted at Chi cago. Inquiry by Bradstreet's shows that scarcity of supply in this industry has ex- erted some influence upon industrial opera tions. Several mills at the west are re- ported idle because of lack of material, Structural forms of iron and steel are also backward in delivery, and some new work has been discouraged by fears that SUD- plies of material will not be forthcoming.
 In textile circles the situation Is one of unabated strength, but particularly so In wool and woolen goods. Manufacturers are freer buyers at the east and their agents are purchasing heavily at the west. Quotations for fine grades are consequently higher all around.
 In the market for finished goods orders are of large volume, particularly in worsted and some concerns are cutting down consumers orders, claiming inability to deliver. The jobbing demand for dry goods Is increasing slowly at the east and the prospects are regarded as highly en- couraging.
 Advices from the boot and shoe trade are generally satisfactory and little difficulty is experienced in obtaining advanced quo- tations demanded. An example of earlier activity in this line is furnished by reports that Boston shipments for the first half of this year exceed those of last by over

possible here. During the early part of the week the stringency of money at London and the firmness of exchange rates here caused apprehension that the recent out flow of gold would be renewed, but such fears were not realized, and the appear ance of an easier tone in the principal for eign money market with the absence of the expected increasing of the Bank of Eng land discount rate on Thursday was &C., counted favorable factors. The strike on the Brooklyn Rapid Transit system and the similar disturbances on some of the Met ropolitan street railway lines in Manhattan borough had less effect than might have been anticipated, both the stocks of these corporations being depressed and the in- cident, particularly in the early portion of the week, created additional caution in pro- fessional circles. It is said, however, one of the maxims of Wall street that is to be cautious under such circumstances as pre- vailed during the past week.
 In view of these different factors the market has altogether been professional in character and quality, with irregular fluctuations and without bearish tendencies that some of the events of the week might have suggested.

 INV SOCIETY. !


The Southern club gave a musical recital last night, which proved the most enjoya- ble social entertainment that has been given in Birmingham during the summer. The ball room had been provided with a stage for the occasion, which served the purpose very nicely.
 All of the musicians on the programme was an artist in their line and the audience showed their appreciation by very liberal applause. Justin Thatcher, whose tenor voice seems to be something of fad in Birmingham just now, sang Songs of Araby" (Clay), and 'I Envy the Bird, from the "Serenade," (HerberD. Miss Mo- ra Scholar sang most pleasingly For All Eternity" (MacheronD, and "Mignon." Leuman Handley sang as a solo Thou Art Mine AL" (Brodsky) Miss Alice Fallon was on the programme, but was too hoarse to sing She did, however, sing trio with Miss Scholar and Mir. Thatcher, When l Am Gone from Thee," (CampanarD. The first number on the programme was duet by MT. Thatcher and Mr. Handley-"Thou Art Mine All'' (Goetz).
 The instrumental part of the programme was also very entertaining. Professor Dency-the only Denck-playing several se- lections in his own inimitable style. His first number was "The Last Rose of Sum- mer," with variations, played with one hand His second was a very clever mix ture of "Naney Lee, "Sewanee River" "Listen to the Moeking Bird,' Carry Me Back to Old Virginia" Bonnie Blue Flag and Dixie" It was quite ingenious. Miss Amy Jordan was the accompanist, and her playing added greatly to the success of the entertainment.
 After the programme was finished light refreshments were served, and later, there was dancing.

His Fleet in Good Condition.

Washington, March y. The
navy department has been inform
ed that the care which Admiral
Dewey has given to the fleet on the
Asiatic station is shown in the
condition of the vessels, which is
much better than could be expect
ed in view of the long servlcs they
have undergone, far from repair
stations. With the same informa-
ton came reports that the ship
wards at Cavite have been re-estab-
lished, and that, under the direc-
ton of American mechanics, the
native workmen have been able to
make all the ordinary repairs
which the ships need. For clean
ing the bottoms, they have to be
taken to Hong Kong and docked,
but the other routine work has
been done at Cavite. The ma
chinerv and tools used in the Ca
vite shops are the same as those
used by the Spanish, and have
little that is modern except some
obtained from English manufac-
turers. Regarding the admins
tration of Admiral Dewey, the
Olympia is cited as a ship that has
been in Asiatic waters for three
years, is still in good condition,
and has needed little in the way of
repairs.

DANGERS of the Grip.

The greatest danger from la grippe
is of its resulting in pneumonia. IL
reasonable care is used, however,
and Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is
taken, all danger will be avoided.
Among the tens of thousands who
have used this remedy for la grippe
we have yet to learn of a single case
having resulted in pneumonia, which
shows conclusivelv that this remedy
is a certain preventive of that dam
gerous disease. 1t will cure la grippe

WEST cnICKAsAw LINE.
VIII be Located by the Government Sur
Veyors This Year.

Denison. Tex, March &c.
H. Fitch, in charge of the United
States geological surveying corps,
surveying the Indian Territory,
headquarters in this city. has been
selected to superintend the survey
of the 9Sth meridian, the bOundry
line between the Chickasaw ma
ton and the Comanche and Kiowa
reservations.
The line is to be surveyed from
Red river, west of DenisOn, ninety
seven miles north-ward to the
Canadian river, the northern boun-
Diary of the Chickasaw nation.
The 9Sth meridian has never
been a true north and south line,
and there has always been more or
less controversy as to the exact
status.
When the Chickasaws made
their treaty with the Dawes com
mission at Atoka two years ago
one of the stipulations of the treaty
agreement was that the United
States government should survey
the 9Sth meridian, giving a correct
north and south line, before any
allOtments were made. Acting on
the terms of this agreement, the
government made an appropriation
at the last session of congress to
cover the expense of such survey
and work under the direction of
Mr.. Fitch will begin at once.
