BRADSTREET'S VERMONT TRADE
REPORT.

The chief manufactures in the state
are busy and prospects appear good for
fall business. Collections reasonably
good and labor is we'll employed. The
weather has been good for the most
part during the week and retail trade
is fair. While the corn crop will be
small it is probable that there will be
over half of an ordinary yield and as
prices of farm products are high the
farmers should have successful year.
Business is good in Burlington: the
mills and factories are busy and there
continues to be good demand for
groceries and other wholesale lines.
Rel all business and collections are re-
ported satisfactory. Barre reports
business good, the prices which the
manufacturers in the granite bust
ness receive being somewhat ad-
vanced on that received before the
Exchange was organized and orders
are coming in quite freely. The man
ufacturers are busy and collections
are fair and retail trade good. In
Montpelier the granite dealers are
busy and conditions there are practi-
cally unchanged. Retail trade is re-
ported satisfactory. Business is good
in Swanton, the manufacturing con-
Germs are busy and the stores are
having good trade, the electric rail-
way being favorable to increased
business Waterbury reports the
condition of manufacturing interests
good, retail trade and collections sat
isfactory In Fair Haven the slate
business continues to be very success
full, retail trade as usual, collections
fair. Agricultural crops are perhaps
little below the average. Manufac-
turing interests we'll employed at
Hardwick, retail trade very fair, col
lections good. Crops somewhat in
jured by frosts. ST. Adams reports
retail trade quiet but manufacturers
are busy and collections fair. Agri-
cultural crops good, except corn and
some rust in potatoes. st. Johnsbury
reports manufacturing business good,
retail trade and collections also good;
agricultural crops satisfactory, except
corn. In Stowe the manufacturers
are busy; retail trade good, collec-
tions fair; potatoes good, corn and
other crops fair. Business in Bethel
appears to be as usual; considerable
interest is shown in a local granite
quarry here which is being developed.
The strike against two machine shops
in Rutland is unsettled and is consid
cred an unfavorble feature in the
business situation here, but late re-
port indicates partial settlement of
the strike. Retail trade very fair;
the weather is little cool to improve
the corn crop which is late and needs
favorable weather for maturity; col
lections fair. Business reported quiet
in Brattleboro. In Swanton Junction
the manufacturing interests are fully
employed; collections good. The dry
weather for the past two weeks has
improved farm conditions.

JUDICIARY COMMITTEE
SENATE BODY TODAY ACTED ON
SEVERAL NOMINATIONS.
Judge AndersOn's Case Not Considered
as subcommittee Was Not
Ready to Report.

The Senate committee on the Judiciary
held a meeting today, but the nomination
of Thomas H. Anderson as an associate
justice of the Supreme Court of the Dis
trict of Columbia did not come up, as the
subcommittee. consisting OF Senators Hoar,
Pettus and Nelson, to whom 1t was referred
for an investigation and report, as states
in The Star yesterday, was not ready To
report The charges against Mr.. Anderson
are not personal, but are based on Ms
former connection with the Washington
National Building and Loan Association,
which. it Is charged, Is conducted In way
that is very severe on borrowers.
These charges were made to the commit
tee by some one who claimed to have suf-
fered from the methods of the association.
and the committee decided to have the facts
In the case secured by means of an inves-
tigation by the subcommittee, which con-
sidered them yesterday for the first time
The AssociatiOn's Methods.
The Washington National Building and
Loan Association has its headquarters IN
this city. although it transacts business In
Maryland, Virginia, Pennsylvania and West
Virginia well as in the District. After
the organization was perfected in 1888 Mr.
Anderson became it's general manager and
held that position until he became United
states district attorney 1or the DlStT-ct
of Columbia.
He was also a director in the association
Mr.. Anders On has replied TO the charge
against him, saying that he was not an or
ganizer of the association but that its
methods have been upheld by decisions In
the United States Supreme Court in the
case of similar organization.
Favorable to Judge Baker.
The committee agreed to report favorably
the nominate of Francis E. Baker of Indi
ana to be circuit judge in the seventh cir
cult. The opposition to Judge Bakers con-
firmation was withdrawn, but the circum-
stances connected with his case were dis
cussed at some length. There was especial
reference to the fact that his father is dis
trict Judge in the Indiana district and the
point was made that with the son occupying
the circuit bench 1t might fall to his lot to
review his fathers decisions. There was,
however, general expression to the effect
that the prominence of mans father
should not be allowed to stand bar to
his own preferment. 1t was suggested also
that in such cases Judge Bakers own deli
cacy could be depended upon to find the
proper solution of the problem This view
was accepted and the decision favorable to
report the nomination was not opposed.
Among other nominations which the jul
dietary committee decided to report favor
ably were those of Fletcher NJ. Doan and
Richard E. Sloan to be associate justices
of the supreme court of the territory of
Arizona.

liability by the Edison Electric Illuminat-
ing Company In the subway explosion OF
March 4. 1897 in which a dozen persons

ises to end speedily a mass of litigation
for damages involving claims aggregating
nearly S1.JOO,0O0 Previously the courts
had found the Boston Gas Light Company
and the Edison company Jointly liable but
the Edison company had contested the find
ing. From time to time the case has been

settlement, and next Monday, when the
damage cases are called in court on con-
