DUN'S REVIEW OF TRADE,
New Business for Manufactures Has

New York Jan. 26. Il. q. Dun 6:
CO.'S Weekly Review of Trade will
say tomorrow
New business for manufacturers this
year has been light in some branches.
and much below the production last
month. 1t is perhaps too often iOr-
gotten that industries start this year
with larger contracts ahead than ever
before, and when half the work of the
whole year has ben ,.rde"ed in ad
vance there cannot continue quite the
same activity in nlW luyinS. The
wooden manufacture las Just opened
Il new season with the largest tran
sactions ever known in Il single week.
il is said. but in GICsi other lines con
tracts previously booked would make
similar activity impossible.
Iron and steel prices have been
yielding for several weeks. and are Il
shade lower for products than at ans
other time since the middle of Sep
tember though bcsscrier pig and bill
lets are still 50 scarce and firmly held
that only two sales amounting to 5000

York Central contract for $4,000 tons
of bridge material went to the Penn

and two orders for 25.On0 tons of rails

Atlantic exports have been only 7,,37.

exports show a little gain, amounting

Stier, q well known merchant
cf Johnsonville, near here. came

BY revolver bullet Stier operates
a large store at Johnsonvillc, about
four miles west of Portland At o.3o
u, m. he was in the store alone at
tending to some business. His clerk
had left but Il few moments before
and had locked the door. Hearing n

the stick away, but before he could
close the door the barrel Of revolver
