TRADE REPORT.

Bradstreet's report on trade the past
week:
Trade conditions are still irregular.
Business is of fair volume, but not SO
active as year ago, partly because
of the backward season, heavy rains
Interfering with crop movements and
collections; continued labor troubles,
present and past, discOuraging build
ing operations and the spread Of the
conservative feeling among buyers,
based upon stock market liquidation
and the feeling that the high prices
of many products will tend, II they
have not already done so, to automatic
ally check consumption.
Many underlying conditions are,
however, still favorable. First in i'm
portance should be reckoned the de-
cidedly better tone of advices from
the corn crop, which has developed a
better quality and larger yield than
was deemed possible. Special inquiry
by Bradstreet's agents point to yield
Of at least $3.50, 100000 bushels, Of a
grade superior to that of year ago.
Lower prices for this and other GER
calls and for cotton, whose yield will
be smaller than seemed probable a
month ago, seem likely to help out
backward export trade in these pro-
ducts and improve the foreign ex-
change outlook. Collections, too,
though backward, are improving as
the grain and cotton movement ex-
pand.
The volume of business doing by the
railroads is excellent.
The best trade advances come from
the southwest, notably at Kansas City
and st. Louis; from the western Sec
lions, such as Nebraska and Iowa,
where corn is turning out better than
expected; from the Pacific coast,
where trade is still unqualifiedly good,
despite the slcwness of new wheat
and other crops to move, and from
portions of the south, such as the
Mississippi valley, where present
prices for cotton afford good return
for fair yields.

JACKSON WAS LYNcHED.
Murderer of Fannie Buck at Hamilton,
Mont.

MOnIs
Missoula, Mont, Oct. 15.-Walter
Jackson, the convicted murderer of 6
year old Fonnie Buck, and sentenced
to be hanged, was taken from Jail at
Hamilton at late hour at night and
lynched.
They soon found Jackson, who was
cringing in the darkest portion Of his
cell. The poor wretch pleaded piteous-
ly for mercy, but was rushed out into
the street. The mob mad already pro-
vided rope. This was quickly thrown
over an electric light pole and the
moose placed about Jackson's neck.
He was asked if he had anything to
say, and only pleaded for mercy. The
mob then pulled him into the air, after
which they quietly dispersed. Not a
shot was fired, and Jackson was the
only one to suffer violence. The iden-
tity of the mob leaders is unknown.
Jacksons case was on appeal to the
supreme court.
Thirty-five minutes after the lynch.
ing Jackson's body was cut down by
the sheriff and coroner and removed
to the morgue.

is NOW AT HIof,EsT POINT IN
YEARS.
Purchases Of Bullion for Demands In
Philippines and india Accounts for
the Raise in PriSe-uncIe Sam Has
Nearly Enough f,.r Present Needs
Mexican Dollars leave Philippines.

New York, Oct. l5.-Commerc1al
bar silver has now ohched the highest
point established IN years, Esd per
ounce in London and 60 IL and 60 BIC
here The advante abroad is equal
to, 3-Sd. The treas, Try department has
purchased 100000 ounces of silver
bullion for delivery at San Francisco
for the Philippines coinage at 60,125
cents per ounce, the highest price that
has yet been pail. The New York
market for silver effects the price es-
-tablished in London, where the market
has been strong Tor several months,
the advance being attributed in great
measure to the demand from India
and to purchases b the United States
for Philippine account.
Treasury to Cease Purchasing.
Washington, Oct. 15.-Col. Edwards,
chief of the bureau of insular affairs,
who has been managing in this coun-
try the finances OF the Philippines and
carrying out the act of the last con-
gross for supplying the Philippines
with currency, recently cabled the
Philippine commission that there
should now be in the islands 15,900,S50
pesos and that the amount yet to be
coined and shipped amounted to one
million more, the amount being at the
mints or contracted for.
A reply has been received from the
commission stating that the amount of
coin now in the Philippines, together
with some five millions pesos in paper
money, soon to be increased to 7,000,-
900, to which should be added from
eight to nine million pesos in Spanish
coin would be sufficient and advising
against the purchase of any more bull
lion for the purpose of coming pesos.
This action has been taken by the in
sular bureau and no more silver will
be purchased further than what is
necessary to fulfill the existing stipu-
| lations with minis.
1t is probable that the Philippine
commission will demonetize Mexican
dollars on January /, 1904, but at the
rate Mexican dollars are now leaving
the islands, it appears that such &C.
ton will have very little effect. For
the first nine days of October, 1896, 900
Mexican dollars have been exported
from the islands and none has been
imported.
The Philippine commission will take
steps to get in the Philippine treasury
by July 1, all the Spanish coins in cir.
culation, the intention being to issue
the new Philippine pesos in their
stead.
The purchases for the further coin
age of Philippine pesos will be about
four or five hundred thousand ounces
1t is intended to coin the Spanish coins
when accumulated in the island treas
ury to Philippine pesos. It is said
that the amount of new currency in
the islands, together with the Spanish
coins and the United States currency
is sufficient for the business of the
Philippines.

BRITISH COLUMBIA MINES.

Last week the combined mines of
the Boundary made a big jump in the
ore shipments of nearly 5000 tons
over last week. Nearly every one OF
the nine shippers made an increase.
About 1876 men are now on the pay
roll of the CRANKY mines, and close to
a hundred each are employed by the
SnQwshoe and Mother Lode. All the
mines of the Boundary are still grad
ually increasing the forces.
The San Francisco capitalists who

The annual general meeting Of the

LAND FRAUDS.
