DRY GOODS.

Bradstreets
Business is progressing fairly in a
seasonable way, with conditions steady.
Cotton fabrics are firm in all depart
ments. The large contract for print
cloths at Fall River and the agreement
to hold the price to October LIST has
given strength TO all classes of gray
goods, and the mills are well sold
ahead in most instances. Printed fab
RIGS are yet below the basis of cost
compared with the gray cloths, but
this may be changed TOR the better by
gradual advances. Ginghams hold
firm, the season being an active one
from the start. Dress woolens are
quiet at first hands, but liberal orders
TOR fall have been placed and the out
look is favorable. Mems wear woolen3
continue slow, the fall orders placed
by clothiers being extremely eonserva-
tive as whole. The new wooden COM
bination will be more of factor on
the next sale.

The market is firmer and a good de-
mand is noted. The recent large pur-
chases of Australian wool in Boston
for shipment to Europe, taken with re-
ported sales of domestic fine WOODS for
the same purpose, have strengthened
the market on this side and started
more speculation. London wool sales
are progressing steadily, and recent
purchases there were made at 29125
per cent. above March prices for the
best woods. Boston sales OF Australian
woods in bond to Europe foot up about
$4,000 bales, taking all of these woods

New York. May 20. Stocks Trans
actions In to-days short session were
apparently confined to dealings by TO-
cal room traders who seek days turn
in prices either up or down. Prices IN
the majority of cases are consequently
little changed from last night. me
course of their fluctuations during the
two hours trading reflected consider
able hesitation and uncertainty In the
minds of the trading element. The
London exchange was closed for a
holiday, and there were no quotations
from that quarter to give an lndica-
tion of the tendency of prices. Many
stocks ouened unchanged in quotation
or moved only Is either way. Stocks
of corporations which enjoy franchise
privileges in this State were weak on
the prospect Of the franchise tax bill
becoming law, the prospect of mater
ial modification not being considered
likely. The American Smelling stock
was also under pressure and continued
rather weak all day. Anaconda, on
the other hand, continued its show of
strength and ended the day 21a points
higher. Sugar made an aggressive re-
sistance to the pressure against it and
kept above yesterdays level after the
opening decline. There was dull re-
sistance to the occasional attacks on
especially those in the South and West.
Manhattan and Third Avenue were firm
early, but yielded later, the latter
breaking six points. The bears were
disposed to caution in anticipation of
the favorable bank statement, but when
the market failed to respond to this
an attack was made ON values. So lit
tie stock was brought out on decline
that bears covered, making the close
firm at small changes, except in special
cases. The bank statement showed a
larger increase in cash than was ex
pected. The heavy contraction in
loans was, of course, reflection in part
of the drastic liquidation of last Satur-
day. AS consequence the increase in
cash almost all went to swell the sur
plus reserve of the banks.
There was a marked continuance of
the recent heavy absorption of new
issues of railroad bonds, the tape re-
cording several individual transactions
of from 100000 to over 100000.
There has been large buying of rail-
road bonds during the week, the large
individual transactions indicating buy
ing for large financial interests. The
new or contemplated issues for reor-
ganization or refunding bearing 31a or
4 per cent. interest, have been the ia
vOrites.

him that no franchise could be granted
on such terms, and they refused to con-
slider the proposition
1t seems that all the talk of such
road iG among the people living along
the proposed route, and that if the fran
chise and right-of- way can be secured
they hope to induce somebody to build
the road. No surveys have been made
and no action taken other than talking
about the matter. Even the proposed
route has not been settled on. The
Commissioners lay it down as a gener-
al proposition, that no franchise will
be granted to anyone not giving evil
Gence of meaning business and of the
ability to carry through the project.
1t is not proposed to give away fran
chises that will some time be valuable
in order that promoters may have the
same en- which to speculate.

RURAL TELEPHONES.
Movement TO Establish a System in
Belmont County.
THE MATERIAL READY AND CON-
9 STRUCTION TO BEGIN SOON.
s CONTEMPLATED BRANCH ROAD
OF B. & {. -SOMETHING OF THE
4 IMPORTANT WHEELING &
LAKE ERIE CHANGES.

A movement has been started across
the river which has for its object the
construction of rural telephone sys-
tenn to provide a service for all the
small inland towns of Belmont coun-
ty. The project has for its ultimate
purpose not only a system of tele-
phonic communication for the towns
and villages, but aims to make the
service so popular that individual
farmers and crossroads merchants
can afford it. The company has at its
head prominent business men of cap
ital who express themselves as deter
mined to push the enterprise for all
there is in it.
Some months ago the Belmont coun-
ty Telephone Company was organized,
with headquarters at Bellaire, and
since it's formation it has been quietly
working to secure rights of way and
fixtures preliminary to beginning the
construction. 1t now has everything
in readiness and a prominent official
of the company said yesterday that
twenty-five miles of the line with all
it's Tamiications will be up and IN
working shape before the first of Oc-
tober An automatic SWith board has
been secured and no central operator
is required when the subscribers DO
not exceed twelve in number. Farm
ers who make their own connection
with the company's line and pay for
receiver and transmitter will be given
the service for so ments a month. They
will also be given an opportunity OF
reducing their own expense by charg-
ing the public stipulated price for the
privilege of using the phones.
At Bellaire the system will connect
with the local line. From thence the
new line will pass west by Schick's
mines, McClainsville, Neff's, st.
Joseph, Anvil and Bethel. This will
require IA miles of wire and it will be
I'D within few weeks. The other
towns that will be within the circuit
are Jacobsburg, Kelsey, Centreville,
Belmont, Morristown, Flushing, New
Athens, Harrisville, Pleasant Grove.
Colerain and Martins Ferry. Fifty
subscribers have already been secur-
ed at Morristown, and f1attering pat
ronage is reported from the other
towns and villages.

SURVEYORS AT WORK.

For the past week party of engin-
GERS have been at work on Captina
creek, in Belmont county. They are
reticent as to their object and purpose,
but it is surmised they are in the en-
ploy of the B. & O. Company, and that
the survey along Captina creek is
preliminary to branch road to touch
the river some twenty-five miles below
Bellaire and connect with a projected
coal road in West Virginia. Such g
branch would obviate the heavy grade
at GAINESVILLE and would be used ex-
clusively for freight purposes.
