conaressmen-E Elect Will Spend Next
Month at Nations canitaI.

Congressman-e elect c. r. Davis, Of
the Third district, and A. ]. Volstead,
OF the Seventh, were in St Paul yester-
day and conferred on a trip to Wash

Both the Third and Seventh districts
have interests in Washington reuuir-
ing department attention, and Messrs.
Davis and Volstead expect to spend
the major portion of a month in the
capital.
In the Seventh district, as in the
Sixth, there is a large amount of in
demntty land to which the titles are
disputed by squatters and railroad
companies. Something over 200 suits
have already been instituted and Mr..
Volstead will endeavor, as Mr.. Buck
man is now trying, to get the co-opera-
ton of the department of the interior
IN Strengthening out the middle, which
is constant source of loss to the
counties involved, as no taxes are COL
lected on the disputed lands.

BRADsTREET's REVIEW.

New York, May S.-Bradstreets tomor- row will say:
 Business continues large and industry active, in most cases surpassing previous years at this date despite unseasonably coo. weather in some section and swarm of veXatious labor troubles. Most of the measures of trade and industrial volume still make favorable showing. The simply enormous gain in gross railway earnings reported for April, fifteen per cent over the best in previous years, Is proof that past good repotts of trade and traffic were fully justified.
 Iron production is at the maxim I'm, but pig iron Is dull and dropping. In sharp contrast with cruder forms ls the >'rength and activity in steel and the continued active sale for finished products. Mems wear wooden goods are not being taken hold of freely. Wool moves fairly, though mostly at concessions and the disturbed conditions of raw cotton, prices having reached the highest point in over two years, holds back trade for fall though rather more disposition to do business has been manifested by buyers this week. Strikes and lockouts interfere with trade in lumber and other building material, particularly at New York On the other hand the shoe industry seems to be ex ceptionally active. Leather is firmly held.
 Western drygoods, groceries, hardware, clothing and millinery 'obers lot good re- orders and the volume of fall orders booked exceeds a year ego. Southern trade Is affected by unusually cold wealth CT. holding back business and cumplicat- ing the crop situation in cotton, fruits and vegetables. The damage done by cold weather, however, can still be re- paired by prompt replauting aT favora- ble weather. although the cotton crop will be a late one.

WEEKLY TRADE REVIEW
DUN AND BRADSTREET SUM MARIZE SITUATION.
Unrest in the Ranks of Labor Has Increased Instead of Diminished.
 Important Industrial Under takings Are Checked.

New York. May SIR. G. Dun and Co.'S say:
 Unrest in the ranks of labor has in- creased rather than abated since May 1, when dificulties of this sort usually cul- inmate. No single struggle of great mag nitude IS in progress but the frequency ot small strikes is disturbing and in the aggregate large force Is idle, while im- portant industrial undertakings are cnecked Good reports are received from footwear factories. shipments from Bos- ton for the year thus far surpassing all records and clothing makers receive du- plications of spring orders in order to get out full samples. Prices of commod- ities declined slightly during April Dun's index number falling from $S9 267 to sss.5Sl. A year ago the highest point of recent years was touched at $i02s9S. Rail way earnings in April were 1S4 per- cent larger than in last year and 2S.7 DOT cent above 1901.
 Cancellation in orders where deliveries failed to be made according to contract and new business at lower quotations in uicate tendency toward more normal changes in pig iron. Pending contracts for about 50,000 tons of structural mate rial have been closed and other orders are only postponed by uncertainty re- garding the labor situation. Railway re- cufrcmentS appear to have no limit and the proposed extensions will consume large quantities of steel. Billets are one
 
 ports being arranged with difficulty. Im- plement manufacturers are surpas sing all records in their purchases of merchant steel.
 All leading machinery makers report satisfactory conditions. Trade in hard ware Is of good volume and new busi- ness still coming forward freely and es- pecially at the south. Textile manufac- turers at the East have not improved their position during the past week. Job bers are buying only small quantities. eX ercising discrimination that indicates dull markets elsewhere and statesmen are being withdrawn from the road. With large print mills closed there Is no activ ity in print cloths. Abnormal prices for raw cotton might be expected to s;lmu late inquiry for goods, but the only ef feet is to prevent sellers from making concessions. Higher figures are expected next week at the offfcIal opening of the season in carpets. The new wool clip is firmly held A steadier tone is noted in silks owing to reports that production Will be curtailed. Trade is rather quiet in leather, both as 10 sole and upper with prices steady although heavy weight stocks have accumulated. Chicago pack CT hides are dull at recent advanced | prices. Foreign dry hides are easier. Failures this week number 175 in the 1 United States against 21S last year and 22 in Canada, compared with 2i year ago.

TWO NEGROES RESPITED
FOSTER AND HIGHTowER WILL
 NOT BE HANGED FRIDAY. |
They Were Convicted of Murdering Low Tyner, a Negro, in Macon County-Recommended
 by Pardon Board.

James Foster and Henry Hightower, two kegee next Friday, were yesterday grant ed little longer lease on life by Gov ernor Jelks.
 The Macon County negroes. were respited by the Governor upon the re- quest of the State Board of Pardons to give an opportunity for the presentation of additional information.
 Foster and Hightower were convicted of the murder of Low Tyner, another of their race. Two other negroes, Andrew Sistrunk and Oliver Wade were indicted with Foster and Hightower. The four negroes were tried in the Macon County Circuit Court last month. Wade and Sistrunk were acquitted, but the tria. ] resulted in a conviction for Foster and Hightower. The death sentence was pro- nounced upon them and they have ex-
 hausted the resources of the courts. A petition for the communication of the death sentence of the negroes to life im- prisonment has been filed with the State Board of Pardons. This was followed
 by petition to the Governor to respite
 the negroes for thirty days
 Yesterday was set as the day for the
 l hearing by the Pardon Board of the two petitions.
 The negroes were represented before the
 | Board by George Rogers of Tusks gee. It
 was declared that new evidence as to
 the murder had been discovered. The execution of the courts sentence
 was ordered delayed for thirty days until
 the Governor and Board of Pardons could
 be given the new informa tion.

HE WAS A UNION SOLDIER.
And Was Practically Acquitted of
 Crime in Georgia.
New York Times.

New York Times.
 Sentiment played a peculiar and pug zling role in court at Augusta, Ga, the other day. One George Moore, a man of 70, was on trial for burglary and had con fessed his guilt. He said that want had driven him to crime and that he was a Union veteran. His age. his poverty, and his military record produced a decided effect. The jury, which was made up en- tirely of ex-Confederates. brought in strong recommendation for mercy with their inevitable verdict of guilty; Judge William E. Cary, an ex-Confederate Major. fined the prisoner $l; the Sheriff. an eX-Confederate Captain, paid the fine, and the Solicitor. the son of an ex-Con- federate officer, ordered that the amount of the fine he given to the prisoner, who was then released. Moore left the dock in tears, and the spectators rose and stood in silence as he walked out of the court room. Later ex-Confederates made up a purse and sent him to his home in Kentucky According to the dispatches describing the incident, 1t was the fact that Moore had been a Union soldier that excited the interest in him and led to the action taken. The fact that he was a burglar. which was not altogether unim- portant in reaching a decision as to the treatment he deserved, seems to have been ignored as far as possible. It was pret- ty, but was it justice, law, or common sense? The question is of no great inn portance, but perhaps it has some, and well, one cannot rSelp wishing that other mitigating circumstances than the mans service in the Union army had excited the compassion of the good people of Augusta.

expended in giving; which confuses aims
 with justice and relief.
 Tt is the recipient who is wronged, not
 the giver. It Is as uncharitable and as
 reprehensible for an individual unlicensed
 citizen on the street to prescribe for
 vagrancy as for hydrophobia or typhoid
 fever.
 Our problem is primarily to convince
 and correct this citizen-giver rather than
 to convince and reclaim the tramp. We
 shall never be rid of the man who would
 rather beg than saw wood: we may hope
 to get rid of the man who would rather
 give a nickel to a begger than send him to an agency which can make him self supporting"
 Other addresses on the general subject of vagrancy were given by Mis- Alice c. Willard of Chicago; James F. Jackson of Minneapolis, James Forbes of New York and former Mayor Livingston Mims of Atlanta.
 During the afternoon sectional meet ings were held, devoted to the discussion of various phases of the general correc- | tional problem.
 The evening session of the convention | was devoted to the discussion of State | supervision and administration of char l ities and correction. The report of the committee upon this | branch of the work was presented by its | chairman, Prof. Frank w. Blackmar of I Lawrence. Kan.

 The salient portion of his address is as follows:
 'One phase of vagrancy affects a great number of people and represents great menace to social welfare, the source and support of the individual vagrant and the stronghold of the disease. I refer to the vagrancy of giving that tramp philan- thropy. that superficial samaritanism. that vagrant interest in ones fellowman which purchases self-complacency. re- lief from annoyance. reputation for gen erosity and spurious mortgages on man. sions in the skies from vendors of hard luck stories, inventors of mutilated limbs and exhibitors of moral and physical de- formities.
