THE STATE OF TRADE.
It Ii Quiet In All Lines. Interest Being Com
centrated in Stock Taking - Cereals
Advanced-Cotton Unchanged.

New York, Jan. 5.-Bradstreet's to-
day says: Trade has been quiet in
all lines, interest being concentrated
largely in stock taking and contem-
plation of 1900 results. Cereals and
provisions have advanced this week,
while stocks have declined, but the
upward movement has been one of
those familiar of late, a short swing
with small fluctuations, limited by
feverish desire to bag profits. Cotton
is rather quiet and unchanged on the
week. Wool is dull and rather easy.
The feature of the week in iron and
steel has been the large sales of steel
rails reported from the west, Chicago
particularly, reporting $4,000 tons
sold in one lot. This spirit of activ-
ity contrasts strongly with the quiet
reported in nearly all other finished
lines and also in raw pig.
Business failures for the week num-
Der 268 in the United States against
213 last week, 229 in 1900, 237 in 1899,
333 in 1898 and 4sS in 1897.

The total amount of property de-
stroyed by fire during 1900 was $685.
065.903, an increase of $7,52s, 53S over
1899. The rapid increase in fire losses
thing to contemplate. At the present
rate the people of the United States
are bearing q burden Of fire losses
that amounts every ten years to more
than the whole national debt. That
amount of value goes up in smoke as
completely as if as many millions in
gold were thrown into the sea.

CONGRESSIONAL Do1nGs.


The senate on the Sd displaced the ship
subsidy bill from its privileged position
as unfinished business and substituted
for it the army reorganization bill. Sem
ator Hansbrough IN. Do introduced q
bill creating a department of education
and giving the head place in the presi-
dents cabinet. There was furry
caused in the house by resolution of
fered by Mr.. Olmstead (Pa) concern
ing the alleged abridgement Of the suf-
frage in Louisiana, Mississippi. South
Carolina and North Carolina and calling
for a committee to investigate the mat
ter. The resolution was finally voted
down by strict party vote, 81. to IS.
Mr.. Rixey Wa-) introduced a resolu-
ton to investigate why small packages
are carried through the mails for for
eign governments at a lower rate than
Is given American citizens. Mr.. Hill
(Conn) introduced bill 60 maintain the
legal tender of silver dollars at parity
with gold.
For five hours on the 18th the senate dis
cussed the army reorganization till. The
debate took a wide range at times, but
was confined principally to the question
of the necessity for the increase in the
regular army proposed In the pending
measure. The Philippine question was
threshed over at great length, but few
really new points were advanced. Tho
legislative, executive and judicial appro-
priation bill was reported. The house
had another spirited struggle over the
Olmsted resolution to investigate the
abrfdgment of the suffrage in certain
southerpsstates with view to reappor-
tionment upon the actual basis Of suf-
frage It was finally referred to the CEN
sus committee. The reapportionment bill
was then taken up. Mr.. Shattuc CO.,
afterwards introduced in an amended
form his resolution proposing con-
eressiona1 inquiry into alleged abrids-
ment of the right Of suffrage.
Little was accomplished in the way of
important legislation by the senate on
the 9Th. The committee amendments to
the army bill, to which no objection had
been raised, were agreed to. but none
of the contested amendments were con-
sidered. The amendment giving the presi-
dent the power to fix the component
parts Of the army ration was adopted.
The house had an interesting debate on
the reapportionment bill. Mr.. Litt1eield
(Me.) making a strong speech for in
creasing the membership. Mr.. Shattuc
(O) insisted that in making the reap
portionment the representation should be
reduced in all states where the right to
vote is abridged. Mr.. Klutz IN. c.
argued in favor of the bill. because he
thought 357 members was enough for the
house.

A Century Of 1rethodism.

The Methodists have been taking an
account of stock for the century in the

astonishing growth. At the close Of
the eighteenth century it numbered

Now it has over $4,000 ministers and
2.s29 900 members. Besides the Meth
odist Episcopal church 16 other Meth

having the same tenets, which now
have 36,424 ministers and $685., 843
members. The church controls 225

Joplin, Mo-, Jan. 6.-Thomas Cum

Joplin, yesterday received a letter
to place 81 900 in gold in a sack and
deposit it at a certain designated
spot south of Joplin. IF he refused

Cunningham consulted with the police

the place indicated, which was done.
Officers concealed near the place

END CAME.
LIFE'S
Death Claimed P. D. Armour, the
Great Packer.
For Two Years the Millionaire Had Made
Stubborn Battle to Live-Left q Vast
Fortune of Over Thirty MIL
Hon Dollars.

Chicago, Jan. Phillip DanfOrth
-philanthropist, financier and
multi-millionaire. head of the vast
commercial establishment thai bears
his name at his home, 2115
Prairie avenue, at 5:45 yesterday
evening. A muscular affection Of the
heart known as myocarditis was the
immediate cause of death. He had
been slowly recovering from pneu-
monia that for three weeks hal
threatened his life and had been i'll
for two years. At nine o'clock yes
terday morning his heart gave way
under the strain of his recent illness,
his pulse running up to 103. That
was the beginning of the end.
During the day he had realized that
death was near. To those around
him he had said: 81 know I am very
sick, and am ready for death when it
comes.'' Soon after luncheon, and
just before the physician forbade his
talking more, Mr.. Armour, in feeble
tones, said that he would like to hear
the Lords prayer read. One of the
trained nurses who had been attend
ing him drew a chair to the bedside
and slowly read from the Bible the
prayer for which the dying man had
asked. It was read sentence by SEN
tence and each was repeated by Mr..
Armour. When the "Amen" had
been repeated by him he sank back
on the pillow and closed his eyes
restfully. It was the last word the
great 6nancier spoke except feeble
farewells to his family little later.
Referring to Mr.. Armour's fortune,
the Chicago Chronicle says: 'Mr. Ar
mour's wealth is a subject that may
never be accurately known. It is es-
timated to be not less than $50, OOO, 900
and by some is said to exceed 50,000,-
600. The combined wealth of the Chi
cago Armours is fixed at $6O, ZOO, 900.
In one sense the total is the wealth
of Philip D. Armour, but just how
much has been carried in his own
name and how much in the name of
his sons is unknown"
Philip D. Armour, who was in his
sixty-ninth year, made his own life
on lines unique and wholly original
Oneida county, n. Y, farm to the po-
sition of paying more freight and
controlling more provisions than any
other man in the world were the two
extremes of his life. The California
gold fever struck western New York
in 1s49 and young Armour was the
first in Stockbridge to determine to
visit the Pacific coast. He secured
the permission of his parents and at
the age of II started, having three or
four companions from the same
neighborhood. The almost incredible
part of it was that the party walked
nearly the entire distance from New
York to California.

Kidney and Bladder Trouble. At times
the pain was almost unbearable, and
the good lady was very much dis

relieve her, let alone effect a cure
Home remedies suggested by anxious
friends were applied, but all to no purs
pose. At last some one spoke of Dodd's
Kidney Pills as a great Remedy for
all Kidney and Bladder Diseases, and
Mrs. Passmore decided to try them.
She did, and is now a well woman. She
has given the following statement for
publications:
At different times in the past three

with little or no relief from any thing.
1 decided to try Dodd's Kidney Pills.
Less than one box has done me moro
good than all the other treatments
combined. I am still using them, and
can say from experience that they are
an excellent Remedy for Kidney and
