New York, Feb 24--Stock quotations
to-day were decidedly irregular and the
movement was in some respects a coun-

WEEKLY REVIEW OF TRADE
AN1EREST IN IRON And STEEL AND
COTTON GOODS.

Two Former Products In Active De-
mond at Advancing Prices the World
Over-Qucstion as to whether Export
Trade Can be Held.
New York, Feb. 24.-Bradstreet' to-
morrow will say: Iron and steel and
sotton goods have shared in public in
terest this week because of the urgency
In demand and consequent buoyancy in
prices. In the former industry the
striking feature has been the continued
call for supplies alike of raw and of
manufactured material and not only on
domestic, but even on foreign account
iron and steel are in. active demand at
advancing prices the world over, and
export buyers of pig iron are following
up their demands, Notwithstanding re-
cent advances in this line. 1t is begin
ming to be questioned, however, wheth-
er this country can hold it's export trade
IN some products il present price ten
denotes continue.
In cotton goods active export demand
seems to have been at the bottom of the
unquestionable improvement This week
mas witnessed specially marked strength
print cloths, ginghams and gray cot
tons all sharing in the price advances.
Cotton itself is rather easier and slightly
lower on the week. Cereal products re-
main steady and but little changed in
price. Raw sugar is slightly higher on
the week, apparently on the growing
apprehension of improved statistical
conditions. Lumber is reported quiet
at some markets, and all markets report
prices unchanged, except where quota
tons have been further advanced.
Southern lumber, notably yellow pine,
tends to advance, and speculative build
ing is reported active at New York
Reflection of the late cold wave is found
IN virtual egg famine in the west,
prices being doubled in two weeks and
at the highest point reached since 1898.

The PrOtraeted Meeting.

We do not remember of seeing more
interest displayed in prOtracted
meeting than is being manifested in
the one now in progress at the Christ
ian church. Every seat is occupied at
each service, and the most marked
attention given the speaker. Ed.
Powell is man of excellent educa-
ton, a fluent speaker and displays
much feeling in expOunding the gospel
Of Jesus Christ and Him crucified.
Quite number have united with the
church. A feature of the meeting is
the splendid music. Some fifteen or
twenty of the best singers in the coun-
ty take part and this, in connection
with Miss May z. Hughes organ &C.
compartments, makes complete one OF
the best chOirs we have ever heard

Contract Let for Erection of Hand.
some Block on the Old Opera
House Site.

Monday DR.. ]. B. Owsley, of Stan
ford, closed a contract with Messrs
Ryan for the erection of handsOm,
block of buildings ON the site of tn,
old opera house. This building will
cover the entire lot from the NatiOna
Bank to Richmond street. 1t will
consist of four store rooms, running
full depth of lots and Office rooms above
The front is to be of Ohio pressed brick
with trimmings of cut stone, and the
entire front of store rooms plate glass.
There are to be large fire walls be-
tween each store and the entire build
ing constructed in the latest and most
up-tO-date manner. The building
will cost $4,000 and is to be completed
by fall. The erection of this block
will be one Of the greatest blessings
the town has had. There is a demand
for more store and office rooms and
this building will fill a lOng-felt want.
Rent i'm Lancaster has been decidedly
too high, and the additional rooms
will, we sincerely hope, bring the
prices within reason. DIR. -Owsley has
the thanks of our people for his en-
terprising step. The Messrs Ryan
will begin work at once.

number of white men for service i'm

Islands. These men will be sent di-
rect to San Francisco from Lexington,
and from there to Manila. This will
make fine trip for able bodied men

Things are Better.

Since Joe Petty has been on duty as
night Waterman, the disgraceful con-
duct heretofore carried on has been
abated, and people living in the CEN
ter of town do not feel as though they
were in the midst of SIMPSONS fleet
in action. A man doesn't mind pay
ing taxes when he knows his proper
ty, and we may safely say his life, will
receive some protection. We hope
the lord high-cOck-a-lOrums will keep
Petty on.
