In the Northern States the Baptists number
nearly one million, and the wealthy men of the
denomination are most generous in giving TO the
cause of religion and education. both at home
and abroad. The Home Missionary Society has

100000 a year in its beneficent work The
denomination has foreign missions in Burmah,
Assam, Southern India. Western Africa, China

Philippines 1t has also extended its work to
Continental Europe Its aim in this foreign work

JudSOn, the founder of the great Baptist mis-

throughout ChriStendom. But .JudsOn did more
than create the foreign missionary impulse that
is to-day strong in the denomination, and
which he imbbed as member of the famous
'haystack band" at Williamstown. His life
and example have inspired the zeal of many
Baptists face to face with heathen at home no

stance his gifted and devoted son, Edward Jud-
SON. is to-day doing the work of a missionary
in this city no less heroic though il fails to
receive the same recognition because 1t lacks
tbe glamour that comes from distance. 1t is in
such work however, that this great peoples
denomination ought to find its highest and
noblest opportunity. and 1t is a matter for re-

this remarkable fall in price does stimulate

only such quantities are required for i'm
mediate use. AS the market for goods is dull
there is little interest in raw material. Some
what better prices were secured at the London
auction sale than during the preceding series,
but there was response here, and some grow
ers at the West have shown a disposition to
make contracts for the current clip, instead of
holding out for better terms. done during
preceding weeks. Spinners have exhibited a
little more interest in cotton, and foreigners
have been attracted by the lower prices Record
breaking has extended to the footwear factories
shipments from the East amounting to 2O7 3O2
cases in two weeks. against 140201 year ago.
and for the year to date all previous totals have
been surpassed. These figures are the better
appreciated when it is realized that Western
and Southern shops have enormously enlarged
their capacity and are also crowded with orders
Heavy leather is strong, and receipts of dry
hides are light, which gives prices an upward
tendency in the local market
In the steel industry the most noticeable feat
ure has been the unparalleled movement of har-

implements, indicating the general expectation
of large crops and the prosperous condition OF
farmers, who are better able than ever before
to purchase all the latest improvements in TOOLS

and free shipments in May thus far promise an
other satisf lctory exhibit. Speculation has con-
tinued phenomenal in the Chicago market where
the short interest forced TO pay 60 cents
for May options of corn. Subsequently there
were some private settlements between the large
operators and the price broke sharply. Wide
fluctuations also occurred in wheat, caused by
reports of insufficient rain and other threaten
ing aspects. After each advance the decline
was even more pronounced. Pork products
