BAD WEATHER.
Retards the general Business of the
Country.

New York, March Bradstreet' s
says today, that stormy weather has
retarded the development of spring
trade at many markets, interruptine
telegraph and railway communication
and naturally checking the move
ment of merchandise.
That the underlying conditions are
in a high degree healthful will be
gathered from the fact that business
failures for February are at a mini
mum as regards the number for that
month"; and liabilities only slightly
exceed those of the same month a
year ago, while assets have shrunk to
aphenomenally low percentage.

Boston, March 3.-The tide front of
New England felt the force of run
of high tides yesterday, which under
the influence of eaSterly gales, left
ruin at all places where the waves
dashed against wharf property. The
Maine coast bore the brunt of the
burden and reports indicate that the
storm was felt more severely and over
a greater area than the famous Nov.
'9S disturbance of the elements.
Coming on the very heels of a heavy
fall of rain in Southern New England
and of two or three feet of snow in
the north with rivers swollen beyond
their banks by recent rains, the tides
swept up rivers and into indentations
in the coast line until their OnruSheS
were like tidal waves.
At Bar Harbor the great granite sea
wall was destroyed.
The city of Bath was HOODED ana
the police rescued many people in
boats.
Rockland and Portland both suffered
severely.
In southern New England the high
tide prevented the surcharged streams
from emptying quickly into the sea
and the backwater stopped scores OF
mills and made life idle for indefinite
periods to thousands of mill hands.
The weather in southern New En-
gland has been clear with falling tenn
perature, but IN northern New En-
GLAND snow storm ragged, changing
to rain at night. Whole counties are
snow bound, railway traffic tied up
and no signs of relief in sight.

THEY Will MEET
Kruger and Stein to Hold an
Important Conference.
PEACE PROPOSALS
Are Expected by Some, bot
it is not Probable.

London, March 3. 3.-President Kru.
ger is said to have left Pretoria with
the intention of meeting Pres. Steyn.
1t is believed they meet somewhere
in the Free State.
Those convcrsant with the effect OF
| the recent revcrSeS have had on tho
Beers, express the opinion that the
meeting of the two presidents is pre-
liminary to suggestion of negotia-
tions for peace. But if this is the
case itmust be due to pressure by the
Burghers and Afrikanders in the Bri-
tish colonies, than to all the inclina-
tons of the presidents, as all availa-
BILE information depicts them as being
as determined as ever to persist in the
war.
The Beers are apparently realizing
that with their accustomed ability to
repair temporary reverses they can
hold out, Great Britain has yet to
test their forces as defensive power
under the new conditions Of modern
warfare.
London, March 3, - Lord Roberts
at Osfontein, six or eight miles east
of Paardeberg, faces the reformed
Boer army, from 5000 to 5000 strong.
This may be merely corps of obser-
walton, ready to retire to prepared
positions.
Whatever the force may be, Lord
Roberts has ample troops to cope
with IT,.
AS a heavy rain is falling on the
veldt and the grass is improving, this
will be a good thing temporarily for
the Beers.
Lord Roberts has surprised observ
crs by the excellence of his transport
during the first advance, and he is
likely to do so again although military
men here think he must wait for some
days before going farther
The Beers presumably will use this
delay for all it is worth, pulling their
resources together. DR.. Leyds gives
out the opinion that the British entry
of Bloemfontein is daily expected as
commandants, Dewett and Dclarey,
had been instructed to retard the adj
vance of Lord Roberts only until the
concentration under Gen. Ioubert
had been accomplished.
