The fire started at sos p. m. in the
premises of NJ. SAKE &, Co., wholesale

the locality were deserted at the time
and the flames apparently had good
Roadway before the first alarm was

sent in Immediately on the arrival Oh
the division chief, but before the near

the flames had leaped across st. Peter
street, which is very narrow at this
point.
The flames continued down 81. Peter

to the corner of st. Paul street. st.
Peter street for an entire block was

Shortly afterwa7d the King entered
the room in which the Councillors were
assembled and addressed them In a
brief speech When he began his
speech his voice was painfully broken
with emotion, but he recovered as he
went on.
The Lord Chancellor, Lord HalsDury,
then administered the oath OF the
King. Afterward the members OF the
council beginning with the lords In

passed in turn before the King as at a
levee, except that each paused and
kissed his hand before passing out OF
the chamber.
This brought the ceremony to a
close.

TRADE NEWS OF THE WEEK.
Jobbing Trade Good and Collections tx
ceIIent-.The Wheat Exports.

New York (SpeciaD.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'S weekly Review Of Trade" says:
Rarely has there been more Dusl-
ness in staples and in manufactured
goods at practically unchanged prices
than during the period since Novem-
Der l. This week seems to nave mark
ed the climax of enormous dearlngs at
figures which have become familiar.
The heavy trade in pig iron at better
prices. the larger distribution OF dry
goods at firmer range of quotations
and the rush to secure prompt delivery
of boots and shoes all indicate that
business may have escaped one OF
those weary readjustments OF prices
which have often proved so trying IN
recent years.
"Jobbing trade in the interior Is
good and collections continue excellent.
Bank clearings at New York gam oz.l
per cent. over 1900 and 1.3 per cent.
over 1899 for the week, while at lead
ing cities outside New York there IS
a gain of 9.9 per cent. over 1900 and
"a per cent. over 1899. Railroad earn
ings thus far reported for January
show a gain of 11.4 per cent. over last
year and 24.6 per cent. over 1899.
after a week of quiet conditions,
partly due to uncertainty regarding
competition among leading interests,
| the iron and Steel industry has taken
another long stride forward.
ut is difficult to find encouraging
features in the wool situation.
Despite the advance in prices over
