DUN'S REVIEW OF TRADE.

NEW YORK, November 30.-R. G..
Dun & Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade
tomorrow will say:
Commercial failures in November
were $50 in number, and S12,300,316 in
amount of liabilities against 1872 in Oc-
tober for S9,072,791 and S86 in Novem-
Der last year, when but 1913 in number
and S3,8S3, 165 in amount, the bulk of
the mortality occurring in trading
concerns, of which GIT failed for ST.
SOC, 1853. There were forty other COM
mercial failures with liabilities of $780,
1893. Four banking and financial COM
panies defaulted for $500, 900. At first
glance the November statement appears
very unsatisfactory, but it must be
remembered that few heavy failures
in wool and other textile industries &C
count for large share Of the reported
liabilities. Aside from this one branch
Of trade, which has naturally suffered
heavily from the tardy approach of
winter, the figures show business to be
on a good foundation.
Holiday retail trade starts off we'll
The week has been characterized by
many advances in prices, but the most
significant is the small rise in boots
and shoes which of all the great indus
tries has been slowest to CONFORM to
the general improvement. A larger de-
mand for goods for current consump-
ton is the report from nearly all direc-
tons. The dry goods trade, recover
ing after recent liquidation, shows bus
mess expanding, but irregularly and
slowly. Cotton goods show the best
results, fine brown sheetings adYanc-
ing from to 6.25 cents, bleached shirt
ings from al TO 1852 cents and brown
sheetings from to SIP cents. There
is little curtailment OF output of cot
ton goods, but some mills which usu-
ally run on export trade are. diverting
machinery to light weights for home
use. Railroad earnings for November
to date show one per cent. gain over
1899. and Ill per cent. over 1898.
Good news continues to come from
iron and steel sections Sales OF pig
iron in three weeks have aggregated
200, 900 tons at Chicago. and idle fur
naces are going into blast. indicating

He Lit the Fire With Kerosene.
Dana Curry, thirteen-year-old boy,
had narrow escape from being burn
ed to death on Thursday evening. He
started a fire in a stove in the Baptist
church, but it burned slowly, so he
poured oil on it. The oil blazed up
and set the boys clothing on fire. He
ran into the street, where passer-by
threw his coat about him, thus extin-
gushing the blaze. The boys hands
and limbs were very badly burned, and
the attending physician has since kept
him under the influence of opiates.
While the burns are very painful, he
is in no serious danger and will re-
cover.

Greater Ministries is one of the features Of
that big and always welcome organiza-
ton. The tribe give exhibitions in aero
batic feats which make them the marvel

Mr.. Field this season is one continued
ovation to these wonderful people. Those
who have seen the performance say that
nothing approaching it has ever yet been
seen in America. These dusky Orientals
seem to have somewhere and somehow
picked up and mastered a school of aero
battles far in advance of any of our mod
ern performers. Mr. Field always wanted
the best and this time he seems to have
secured 1t beyond any question. Every

Principal d. t. williams Assaulted.

About nine o'clock yesterday morn
ing Principal D. T. Williams, of the
High School, was assaulted by Thos.
Higgins, who knocked him down. Mr..
Williams had punished some boys j
few days ago, and among them was
Higgins son, and Higgins took this
method of securing revenge. The
affair was pretty thoroughly discussed
by the people yesterday. 1t seems to
have been wholly unwarranted and
shows poor judgment on the part of
the assailant. Higgins later appeared
before Squire Pierce. plead guilty of
assault and was fined S. and costs.

DEEP WELL AT THE DALLES.
Plenty Of Water But Does Not Rise to
the Surface,

After boring through hard basat rock
at The Dalles since last May and reaching
a depth Of so4 feet, operations have been
suspended by the board of water commits.
city reservoir, which was being sunk to
ascertain whether or not flowing water
could be obtained so that it could be uti.
lized and conveyed into the reservoir.
Extremely hard basalt rock was en-
countered from almost the FIRST and con.
tinued the whole distance, and the eN.
perience has settled the question as to
whether or not artesian water can be OBJ.
tanned in that locality. 1t was shown that
there Is any quantity OF water at the
place where the well was sunk. a large
stratum was reached at depth OF los
feet, and the water Immediately rose TO
within 10 feet OF the surface. Three
other large streams were reached before
the 500 feet were gone through, but each
time the surface OF the water lowered, the
upper stratum of water flowing away
with lower stratum each time one was
reached, showing that the downward pres.
sure of the long column of water, as the
depth increased, ov-rcame the upward
pressure OF the water below.
The commission Is well satisfied with
the experiment, as there was consider
able doubt as to whether flowing water
could be obtained. The we'll has cost in
the neghborhood Of 81, 900, an amount in
comparable with the benefit which would
be derived had stream OF good flowing
water been obtained. The hole is cased
and will be carefully plugged and pre-
served for any future experiments.-Ex.

The Sumpter miner. [volume] (Sumpter, Or.) 1899-1905, 1900-12-12

Portland, the following resolutions, sug.
gesting changes In the laws, were
adopted:
I'VE recommend that all real property
be assessed by description or number, or
by legal subdivisions, or by metes and
bounds, or lots or blocks, as the case
might require, rather than to the name OF
the owner or supposed owner, and that
the valuation be placed on the same only
every two years; and that the improve.
ments on all real property be considered
as part of the same.
"When errors occur In any description
Of real property, the sheriff Of tax collec.
tor shall have the power to correct the
same, when satisfied OF such error.
I'VE would further recommend that the
form Of the assessment roll be made In
such manner that It may be used for the
tax collectors roll and for the delinquent
tax sale, and that town and city lots be
put in separate books.
I'VE also recommend that the first
Monday In January Of each year be fixed
as the date Of valuations, to be placed on
all property.
1--WE recommend that assessors be elect.
ed for a term Of four years.
1--WE recommend that a committee Of
five be appointed to draft and prepare
suitable assessment blanks to carry these
recommendations into effect, and that this
committee be authorized to employ legal
service, the county courts Of the several
counties to pay for the same.
"That the treasurer shall be collector OF
taxes up to the time they become delin.
suent; that the sheriff shall collect the
delinquent taxes.
"That II the present law is not ade.
quate, It should be made so that levy for
advertising on real property for sale of
same for delinquent taxes should not be
made necessary.
"That all taxes should become due and
payable November I, annually, and be.
come delinquent on January I, following,
and that a penalty of per cent be then
added, with legal interest on same, after
becoming delinquent.
"a state board Of equalization, consist
ing of seven members, to be appointed by
the governor or elected by the voters.
The state to be divided into seven dis.
tricts, based on population"
