Iy aid matters. Prices are slightly
lower in iron. wool, coal and sugar,
but the produce and textile markets
firm and in all departments of
business an effort by distri butors to
increase transactions would quickly
advance prices. There is little order
ing ahead in any kind of merchandise,
but steel rail makers look for contracts
for 1000, 600 tons after election Rain
is needed in the south and on the north
Atlantic coast, but in the southwest
rains have checked cotton picking
The most interesting financial deve1-
opInent was the further drop of one
cent in the pound sterling exchange,
completing a decline of two cents in
two weeks, without any important
change in our money market At the
same time London rates for discounts
have streng thened materially, though
the Bank of England made no change
in its rate, in which an advance had
been expected Heavy foreign buying
of cotton has outwefghed all other in
duences- There is insufficient demand
for regular remittances to absorb com
merciaa bills drawn against this staple
Cotton shipments are producing about
dOnble the exchange they did q year
ago, and as the crop is being moved
with funds shipped from New York
and without gold imports from Europe,
the net result is that New York is
Ioaning foreigners about half the value
of the crop.
Most manufacturing concerns are
delaying extensive production until

on small orders, and was also depress-
ed by the cut in southern freight
rates. Finished material and structural
lines are steady Export buying Goes

building were signed during the week

in his Shenandoah speech that a con

about the matter
Mt. Carmel, Pa, Oct. 9.-It seemed
as if every person in town was at the
Lehigh station to welcome President
Mitchell of the United Mine Workers
to this place. The president came here
for the purpose of participating in the
labor demonstration At every station
where the train stopped on the way to
Shenandoah to Mt. Carmel crowds
We're the platform to greet the
strike leader Mr.. Mitchell was much
moved by his reception in the Schuyl-

decked with the national co1ors in
honor of Mr.. Mitchelrs visit Upon
his arrival here he was we1comsd by
local reception committee after which
he took part in a torchlight parade.
There at least 2, 500 men in line,
and there We're many banners setting
forth the sentiments of the marchers-
The parade terminated at the town

mass meeting of about 1000 persons.
His speech was along the same lines

MINNESOTA TORNADO.

chInery Destroyed
Duluth, Mimi, Oct s.-One of the
fercest tornadoes that ever visited
northern Minnesota and parts of Wis
consin struck the edge of the town of
Biwabil1, killing two persons. injuring
eight and doing damage variously
estimated at from $500, COO to $500, 900
The injured are vvorkrnen about the
mines and none is fatal The principal
damage consists of the destruction of
shaft houses. dwellings and business
houses. The Austrian settlement of
BiyIabiax suffered severely. Twenty
houses were blown down in the dis
trict- Tornado conditions prevailed all
day over northeast Minnesota. Violent
great amount of rain has fallen.
The tornado at Biwabiz was followed
by tremendous downpour. Iron mines
which had been flooded by recent rains
and which We're getting in shape to
operate are flooded again in many
cases. When the damage to iron mines
as a esu1t of shutting them down is
considered, the loss from the storm
will be much greater than the esti-
mates given. The funnel shaped cloud
passed over Biwabik with power that
was Irresistible. 1t tipped locomotives
over, lifted cars off the track and
carried them from 100 to 800 feet.
Houses in the path of the tornado were
blown to atoms and the furniture scat
tered for miles. The Duluth mining
company's shaft houses and other
buildings were blown down The
Characterization company sustained
considerable loss to locomotives and
cars

left to its minister discretionary power
to pass upon the sufficiency of the
credentials of Lii Hung Chang, Prince

state department to cooperate with
Minister Conger in the inquiries with
which that official is now charged,
relative to the character of the Chinese
ENJOYS and punishments-
The latest French note is distinct

question of punishments is still pend

tions upon the subject of punishments,
but even though some advance is made
with the French note, it is not likely.

the Board of Charities had authority,
and it was its duty, to condemn the
site located for asylum purposes This
part of the decision was favorable to
