THE PROSPECTS ARE BRIGHT.

NEW YORK, October 3.-Messrs H. u.
Dun and Company's Weekly Review OF
Trade tomorrow will say:
Distribution of merchandise shows no
din1inution. and prospects are bright Tor
continued activity. Dealers in many mes
are urgent for prompt shipments calling
on manufacturers and jobbers for goods
already overdue. This Indication OF re-
duced stocks is good sign. and TENDS TO
sustain quotations.
Western reports are especially favorable.
and the early marketing OF cotton mas
brought distinct Improvement at the
South.
Railway earnings exceed last years by
is per cent.
Supplies of cotton goods do not accumu-
late in first hands, demand keeping pace
with production. which holds prices
steady. Few export sales are reported.
not through any lack of inquiry. but owing
to the fact that sellers will make no con-
cessions.
Strictly commercial failures in the
United States during the first nine months
of 1902 numbered S,676. with defaulted liza
bilties of $50, 47O, 400. Last year there were
SGSs failures. for sSO56o,s5 In addition.
there were forty-seven failures of banks
and other financial institutions. with la
bilities of s2S,027 19S, against sixty-one In
1901, involving s17.295.554.
While the exhibit is less satisfactory

FRATERNALS NOT INTERESTED
Denial of the Statement They Are
Behind the Prosecution of
Mrs, Lille.

DAVID CITY, Neb., Dec. 2S.-(Special)
The Lille murder case is the chief topic
of conversation, and some heated discus
sions are held. An Omaha paper OF yes
terday morning stated that the fraternal
orders of which MIR, Lille was member
were resD0nsible for the arrest Of Mrs.
Lille. The Bee reporter yesterday inter-
viewed the head officers of these orders
and they all say the statement is incor-
rect and unanimously say that they had
nothing to do with the matter either di-
rectiy or indirectly.
Some of the members of the Women 5
Christian Temperance union are taking
quite an interest in behalf of Mrs. Lille,
and boldly assert that she Is wholly in
nocent of the crime charged. A large num-
Der of the members OF the Women's Chris
tian Temperance union are keeping hands
off" and, since Mrs. Lilies arrest, want
a complete and thorough investigation
made, that her guilt or innocence may be
determined by the court. 1t is asserted
that friends of Mrs. Lille are ready to
furnish her with funds to aid in procur-
ing the best legal talent obtainable.
Mrs. Lille went to Bellwood Wednesday
evening TO spend Christmas with her
father, James Hill. She will return to-
morrow morning in time for the prelimi-
nary hearing.
1t is expected that large crowd will be
in attendance when court convenes tomor-
row morning.
