does not respond TO the home application OF cotton

CRUSH AT THU HOTELS ASCRIBED TO
THE GENERAL PROSPERITY OF
THE COUNTRY,

Seldom has there been time in the memory
Of the hotel men Of New-Tork when the hotels
have been crowded as they are at present or
when there was such demand for accommoda-
lions. II Is almost equal to Horse Show week,
yacht race week convention time, the hotel
men say. Unless rooms are engaged ahead the
prospective guest who applies at the desk for
accommodations is likely to meet with the an
swer Everything taken" Scores, and even hun
dreds, are turned away from the big hotels every
day, The only explanation for the extraordinary
pressure Is that people are prosperous, and are
taking advantage of this prosperity to come to
New-York for visit. It IS not the buyers and
the out OF town merchants and business men
generally but also the people that are travelling
for pleasure, that constitute the crush. The
stores, hotels and places Of amusement all report
that these visitors are spending money freely, SO
every one is feeling the benefit of their presence
In the city. Many OF these visitors their
way TO Europe to attend the Paris Exposition,
and are taking the opportunity to stay over in
New-York for a week. ten days, or even six
weeks

NO PROSPECT OF AN OYSTER TRUST.

LOCAL DEALERS DOUBT THE PRAcTIcABILrTf
OF A COMBINATION OF GROWERS.
The feasibility of organizing an oyster combina-
ton, which Connecticut capitalists are said to be
attempting to do, is doubted by come of the local
oyster dealers. John Kelley, of F. c. Strong q
Co. who operate two scows opposite Fulton Market
said TO Tribune reporter yesterday afternoon:
1t is our decided opinion that there is no likeli-
hood OF a trust being formed in the oyster business
owing to the great extent OF oyster beds. There
are natural beds in the South, and when the
weather here Is too severe to admit of obtaining
oysters the market be supplied from Nirginian
waters. We have not been approached by anybody
in regard to the purchase of our plant. We have
been told within a few days by number of the
largest seed rasers in Connecticut. who were ap-
preached year ago, when they refused to be a
party any combination or to sell out their plant
that they have not had any offers this year.
Captain w. j. Stevens, of ROWayton, Conn, one
of the largest and most extensive seed raiSerS gave
the promoters last year option of S250,OOO or
thereabouts his beds, which they did not take
advantage of at that time. He told US recently
that he had not been approached again. The main
difficulty with the trust plan is that the seed output
cannot be controlled.

these men, who hold many lives in their hands
day by day. That the construction of glass shield

so fitted may be seen running daily upon some
lines in Jersey City, Long Island City and else
where at the present time. Legislatures have be-
fore now passed laws preventing trainmen on steam
railroads from being Overworked, and the motive
for such legislation has been much a desire to
protect the travelling public as regard for the
trainmen themselves There Is a widespread feel

THE CoUNCILMEN INDIGNANT.
PRESIDENT BALDWIN CONFIDENT THAT WORK

that the bribery talk was HbeIlous Chairman
