TRADE REVIEW.
Floods and snowstorms in
the East.

New York, March establishments says:
Spring trade increases despite serious in
ierruptions In the section adjacent TO the
Alleghenies caused by floods, snowstorms,
interrupted telegraphic and mail facilities
and crippled railroads. Western and north
western advices are, OF course, relatively
the best received and here dry goods, mil
inery, clothing and kindred lines Of spring
goocs are most active. All available meas
ures OF mid winter trade point to excep-
tional activity despite unfayorable weather
conditions. February clearings as whole,
Notwithstanding reductions at the me-
tropo!is, due TO dullness in speculation, are
slightly larger than year ago. Failures
are TO more numerous. but a few large
bank suspensions. due to mIsmanagement,
or worse. have swelled liabilities one-fourth
above year ago. Prices have felt the
quickening influences IN a slight increase
In strength Of textiles, dairy products
among provisions, live stock, coal and coke
and building materials. All signs, in fact,
favor the indication that legitimate trade
and industry IS, except in few Instances,
considerably more active than a year ago
at this time. Although there Is less APP
parent tension In iron and steel, the situ-
alton Is really remarkable one. Floods
and high water have interfered with pro-
cuction, limiting supplies Of fuel, hamper
ing productive operations ard checking
shipments Most grades of pig iron are
higher In prices by from Is to 20 cents per
ton. Finished products are active. II has
been narrow market for the cereals, with
price changes few, and the government
crop report OF March 10 on supplies in
farmers hands still hanging over the
market. Hog products are slightly weaker
and speculation has naturally been almost
absent"
r. G. Dun & Co.'S Weekly Review OF
Trade says: Unsettled weather was the
most uLsatlEfactory feature Of the busi-
ness situation. A sudden thaw following
an exceptionally heavy snowfall produced
freshets and foods. Manufacturing and
transporting Interests suffered severely
and consumers were urgent for shipment Of
delayed goods, while great quantities Of
merchandise became stalled IN transit.
Preparations for an enormous spring trade
continue undiminished. There Is still some
unsasiEess regarding the labor situa ton
al the coal mines. and at Fall River there
is disagreement as TO the length Of a cut
Of cloth, although increased wages are as
Eured.
Failures for the week numbered 175 in
the United States. against 20s last year.
and II in Canada, against % last year"

TREATIES MUST WAIT.
Agreements with Spain Held Up Until
the Coronation of the
Young King.

Washington, March s.-The new
Spanish treaties must wait upon the
accession to the throne of the young
Spanish king before they can be rati-
fed owing to internal political condi.
lions In Spain, and the reluctance of
the existing government to assume
any measure of responsibility pend
ing the expiration of the regency and
the coronation of the king. This event
win occur on the 18th of May and 1t IL
expected that a new cabinet and a
stronger one will be installed. 1t is
hoped that the delay in the treaty me-
gotiations viii be very brief.

Russia Sends Troops.

Picking, March 1O.-Chinese officials
are greatly disturbed over the condi-
tions at Jehol (Cheng Te), about 100
miles northeast of Picking, where
bandit soldiery have captured priest.
An official of the foreign Office declares
that the Russians have already dis
patched 500 troops to Jehol from the
Manchuria border. The trouble be-
gan over the settlement of claims of
native Christians, and it resulted in
rioting between the Christians and the
non-Christians. Brigands took adj
vantage of these conditions to plumber
the country, and the Russian tele-
graphic connections were incidentally
cut.

AppeaIs to Congress.

Minneapolis, Mimi, March s.-Attor-
ney General Douglas has appealed to
congress in the Northern Securities
case. With the backing of the Mime
sofa legislature and of the Minnesota
delegation in both branches at Wash

the judicial acts which will change the
anomalous position in which Minne-
sofa is now placed. The decision in the
Northern Securities case shuts out the

Test II.

Washington, March 10.-The attor-
ney general mailed to the United
States district attorney at st. Paul the
bill of equity which the government
has been preparing to be fled against
the Northern Securities company. The
bill will be filed to-day. Solicitor Gen.
eral Richards will have charge of the
pleadings in Minneapolis, and as the
case, in any event, is expected to reach
the supreme court, Attorney General
Knox will not appear in the case per-
sonally until that event.
The state of Minnesota, according to
the press dispatches, will try and have
congress so amend the law as to per-
NIT the bringing of such cases original
ly before the supreme court. That
court held that the railroads were nee
essary parties to the proceedings
which were brought here recently. and
ruled out the petition for original
hearing on the ground that the rail-
roads did not appear in the pleadings.

Ivy, and all noxious plants. 1t is COM

is the time to get the poison out of your
system, as delay makes your condition
worse. Don't experiment longer with

Mr.. S. NJ. Marshall, bookkeeper ofthe Atlanta

Oak. He took Sulphur, Arsenic and various
other drugs, and applied externally numerous
lotions and salves with no benefit. At times the
swelling and Inflammation was SO severe he was
almost blind. For eight years the poison would
break out every season. His condition was much
improved after taking one bottle Of S. S. s., and
a few bottles cleared his blood of the poison, and
all evidences Of the disease disappeared.
People are often poisoned without
knowing when or how. Explain your case
fully to our physicians, and they will
cheerfully give such information and adj
