Thrown from Wagon and Severely injured

A young man, named Frank Savage,
aged about twenty-five years and re-
siding in this town met with an accl
dent Saturday afternoon, while com
ing from Almedia with team hitched
to a big wagon. He was a short dis
tance above Espy, the horses jogging
along with loose reins when suddenly
they became frightened, and started
down the road at terrible speed. In
an attempt to check the speed of the
animals, Savage was raised off his feet
and thrown violently to the ground,
both wheels of the wagon passing over
him. When picked up he was uncon-
scious and remained in that condition
after being brought to his home, A
physician was sent for, and an exam
ination revealed the fact that there
were no bones broken, but his head
was badly cut in several places, as wa
also his body.
Young Savage came to Bloomsbur
about eight years ago, and for the pas
five years has been IN the employ o
William Ferguson. He is in ver,
critical condition, but his recovery l
looked for.

BUSINESS OUTLOOK.

Dunn's Re0lea0 Of 7rade makes
the following comments on the bust
ness of the first quarter of the new
near:
Failures during the first quarter Of
1899 have been in the amount of liza
bllities not more than about $2o,-
6So,33o, against $3r,7Io,I4a last
year, $4S,oo7,9Io in 1897, and $57,-
525,I35 in 1896. While the later re-
turns may increase the amount for the
quarter little, the complete return,
which will be given next week, will be
very remarkable in comparison with
that of any previous year
Business is not at present improv-
ing. There has been something very
like a check, partly the result Of
heavy buying since January Ist to
anticipate the market. partly caused
by the uncertainty about the operation
Of many combinations, and a shade
of doubt sbout foreign affairs also had
some influence. The advance in for
eign exchange is attributed, with or
without reason, to preparations of the
government for paying off the $ao,.
100000 assured by the treaty to
Spain, and if such preparations were
begun just before the pressure which
April settlements usually cause they
were enough to cause some annoy
ance. The new rule of the clearing
house banks at New York about tax
alton of country checks also causes
some shifting of accounts. But the
money market throughout the coun-
try is we'll supplied.
A period of transition from one
ownership and management to another,
and from one industrial system to an
other, when it affects many hundred
establishments throughout the coun-
try, inevitably causes some hesitation
in business. A little later the many
hundred concerns may be doing more
business than ever, as they were just
before combinations were effected.
But at the point of transition nobody
knows just what to expect.

Garman's Successor.

There is at present considerable
des gnlng being done, looking to the
election of successor to Democratic
State Chairman, Ohm M. Garman.
From an exchange we learn that the
respective friends of p Gray Meek,
publisher of the Beilefonte Watchman
and Col. J. l.. Spangler, are booming
them for the place. The latter was a
candidate Tor the chalrmanship two
years ago but withdrew in favor o.
Garman. Both men have large
acquaintance, both socially and pollt-
lcally. Neither is antagonistlc to the
other and neither one will be aggres.
slve to the point of endangering the
party nor interfering with complete
harmony.
