An opinion of Importance TO all the
counties in the state was handed down
by the supreme court on the I'd In the
case of the superintendent of the poor
of Jackson county VS.. the superinten-
dents of the Hillsdale county. The
facts were that James Jeffrey came to
this country from England in 1886 and
lived in Hillsdale county until 1895,
when he removed TO Jackson county
He was unmarried and was never aided
as a pauper by either county until COM
mitted to the asylum from Jackson
county in September, 1896. At that
time his property consisted of horse,
harness, wagon and small sum of
money saved from his wages as farm
laborer. Jackson county has paid S419
for his care at the asylum. The circuit
court of jackson county found, upon
proper application, that Jeffreys legal
settlement was in Hillsdale county, and
ordered that county to refund the sum
named to Jackson. Hillsdale appealed
to the supreme court The supreme
court affirms the Jackson judges de-
cision.

New York. June 16.-Bradstreets says:
measured by recent records and recol-
iections of business activity the present
oetween-seasons dizziness seems specially
marked and the reactionary movement
OF prices makes trade look worse than it
really is. Judged by such indicators as
railroad tariffs and the statistics of for
elSh trade, the volume of business doing
is considerably larger than a year ago.
when it will be recalled trade was cheer
fully active. 1t is true bank clearings
are considerably smaller than last years
ciearings, undoubtedly included much OF
a speculative character. this year almost
wholly absent. and yet, outside of the
metropolis, bank clearings are heavier
this year than last.
Lower prices for iron and steel have
not met expectations of causing a re-
duction In output, and the latest furnace
report indicates an actually larger out
put and increased stock, though this lat
ter feature apparently has been magni-
lied because supplies of high-grade pig
iron are still scarce. particularly so at
the south. On the other hand. low grades
are IN plentiful supply. with little de-

Ginning prices is never wholly agreeable to

St. Louis, June is. - The long

down into struggle between capital
and labor along the lines of boy

of the reinstatement of the former

former contentious, it has resulted in
nothing, the railway officials demand

AS result of the company's ac-

clared that he will do all in his power
to bring the influence of the whole
body of organized labor in America
to bear upon the local situation in an
effort to win the strike for the union.
Mr.. Gompers urges the strikers to be
law-abiding, but advises them to make
the operation of the cars as expen-
sive as possible by refusing to patron

strike leaders say, will apply not only
to the st. Louis Transit company, but
