The volume of business in all of the
leading lines for the months of January
and February is smaller than that OF

that trade will be less active than last

and present uncertainty as to the

K. G. Dun and Co.'S local agency
makes the following report for the
week ended February 2s.
Business conditions in jobbing lines
continue fairly active, though Febru-
airy as whole is no better than last
year. Rains and good weather make
future trade conditions very favorable.
Retail trade has been fairly good this
week, with tendency of improving all
the time. Collections continue to i'm

plausible reasons for partial slowness
in some lines of trade; such as INSULT

"Current demand is of full volume

Every Town Damaged.

Philadelphia, March 3.-Heavy rains
and melted ice and snow during the
last week, have put Schuylllill river
out of its banks causing the greatest
flood since 1894. From its source in
the lower anthracite coal regions to
this city where it empties into the Del
aware river, damage has been done
that cannot at this time be estimated.
Beginning with Pottsville, every town
on the banks of the Schuyllxill report
more or less damage. The river is
still rising.
