United States Secret Service Agent Halls
last night returned from Fort Wayne, where
he arrested George B. Updegrove for pass
ing counterfeit money. Updegrove has been
carpet cleaner and has gone from one city
to another in the State in this business. The
case against him has grown out of an ad-
vertisement in an Anderson newspaper Of
May % in which twas stated that pocket
book containing a large amount of counter
felt money had been lost. Mr.. Halls began
to look into the case and found that the
man who owned the pocketbook was given
permit by the Treasury Department to
carry the counterfeit money. Soon after
wards a $40 counterfeit note was passed on
Mrs. Ella a. Corbett, of Anderson. and the
case was reported. The description Tailed
with that of Updegrove and he was traced
TO Fort Wayne. He was arrested there yes
terday and Mrs. Corbett identified him as
the man who passed the bill on her. He
was placed in Jail and was bound over to the
United States grand Jury.

FINANCE
AND TRADE
The Business Situation at Present is
Without Precedent.
THE OUTLOOK WAS MEYER BETTER
The Mercantile Agencies say That the
Gain is Astonishing, and Predict
Record Breaker in the Volume
OF Business This year.

New York, Feb. PR g. Dun &
Co.'S weekly review Of trade says: The
situation Is without precedent. Business
has never been better on the whole, and
In some great industries the gain Is as.
tonishing. Exports surpass last years
as much as imports, though the excess
over imports then was heavy. Failures
are smaller than last year, and smallec
than in either Of six years past. Pay
ments through Exchanges show a greater
volume OF business than ever before at
this season, and nearly one-half larger
than in the best OF previous years. The
outEo of bread stuffs and cotton contin-
ues heavy. But there are some who
fear that such prosperity cannot last.
Popular impressions have to be reck-
Oned with, because they control events.
Yet at every point OF danger except one
the signs are in every respect favorable.
The crush on demand for finished pro-
ducts, at a time when nearly all the
works are crowded by orders covering
production until July /, or later, causes
many to refuse to contract beyond that
date except at higher prices, and a rise
under such circumstances may prove the
one thing needful to sober buyers, and
to bring into the list Of producers other
establishments heretofore idle. While
a fairly large capacity Of production is
still in reserve the demand now pressing
for cars, vessels, bridges, buildings and
pipes is partly to anticipate a rise in
prices.
Bradstreet's review says: Iron and
steel and cotton goods have shared in
public interests this week because OF
urgency in demand and consequent
buoyancy in prices. In the former in-
dustry the striking feature has been the
continued call for supplies alike Of raw
and OF manufactured material, not only
on domestic, but even on foreign account,
and it is yet too early to ascertain the
effect of the numerous and heavy ad-
vances announced during the week upon
the export demand. 1t is, OF course.
to be remembered that iron and steel are
in active demand at advancing prices
the world over, and it is encouraging to
find that export buyers Of pig iron are
following up their demands, notwith-
standing recent advances in that line.
In cotton goods as in iron and steel
and a number Of other products, active
export demand seems to have been al
the bottom OF unquestionable improve
ment which has occurred in the las
three months This week has witnesse
specially marked strength, print cloth
ginghams and gray cottons, all sharir
in the price advances.
