LIGHTS ARE NEEDED.
Woman Fell at Central StatiOn-Could not
See in the Dark.

A lady fell down after she alighted
from a train at the Central station
and not being able to see the one step
up to the platform on account of its
not being properly lighted. The fall
was anything but a light one as the
lady's eye glasses flew off and lessened
her chances of seeing.
Others have complained of.the dark
ness when getting on and off OF the
traius at that station and it ought to
be brought to the notice of Mr.. Blod-
get or someone who has the authority
to alter such a state of affairs. 1t is
bad enough to be compelled to put up
with such an eyesore as the old sta
zion, without Internationally running
the risk of breaking ones neck. Not
w%ithstanding the disdain shown to-
wards the citizens of this borough by
the company, still we cat er to them

TRADE CONDITIONS.
r.. G. Dun & Co. Report No Decline In
Trade, as Predicted.

II. G. Dun & Co. Report No Decline In
Trade, as Predicted.
NEW YORK, Aug. Or. G. Dun &
Co.'S weekly review of trade says:
There is still no indication of the de
preston in trade and industry that
pessimists predicted would follow the
decline in securities. Conservatism
was developed by the uncertainty re-
garding the effect upon financial con.
ditions, but legitimate business is able
to secure funds as they are required
and the more cautious progress of bust
ness gives promise of greater perma'
nent gain.
Weak spots have been disclosed, and
the technical position strengthened,
just as occurred in the stock market.
REIMBURSEMENT after a period of infla-
ton must of necessity bring some loss"
eS. yet the outlook is frightened by
the removal of threatened industrial
clouds. Dispatches from all sections
testify to the liberal distribution of
merchandise and the disposition to pre-.
pare for greater consumption of all the
necessaries of life, while the crops are
making good progress aside from some
cotton districts in Texas.
Lumber receipts at Philadelphia are
largely exceeding last years, building
operations are rapidly pushed. but tex
tile markets are unsettled. Trade is
quiet at Boston owing to the idleness
in textile mills, although paper mills
and shoe shops are busy.
The number of buyers in New York
is increasing and a heavy fall trade is
anticipated. Security dealing is light
and prices are lower despite railway
earnings for August were % per cent
larger than last year and III per cent
above 1901.
Wheat luctuated irregularly in re-
spouse to news from the northwest
where rains delayed harvesting, and
there is evidence of traffic deficiency
in interior arrivals at primary markets
of only 1902, 179 bushels, against 6,249,-
312 bushels a year ago. Exports from
all ports of the United States, -four in
cluded, were 2,331,253 bushels, com
pared with 1926 ,626 last year and
6,307 ,302 two years ago. Corn receipts
aggregated 3~,403,G05 bushels, against
1,0S6,093, and Atlantic exports were
571,105 bushels, against 5S.561.
Liabilities of commercial failures
thus far reported in August aggregate
$9,627 ,621, of which $7,O27,S75 were in
manufacturing, $2.450,103 in trading
and $149,643 in other lines. There is a
considerable increase in comparison
with the liabilities of $7.043,671 last
year. Failures this week numbered
176 in the United States, against 173
last year, and SO in Canada, compared
with IA a year ago.

French Oficial Reports Show In
crensing Gravity of Situation.
PARIS, Aug. 29.-Oficial advices re-
ceived here show that the Russian
squadron which was at Iniada. off the
eastern coast of Turkey. is at SevastO-
pol. where it is awaiting further or
Rers. Italy has One war ship. Austria
has one and France has n in Turk
ish waters, but in each case large
squadrons are held in reserve for ac-
ton if the situation becomes acute.
The increasing gravity of the condi-
lions in Turkey is shown by an official
report just received from PhilippOpolis.
giving details of the revolutionist plot
to blow up the Oriental express. One
of the plotters had been designated to
sacrifice his life by boarding the train
and throwing the bombs. This plot
probably was connected with the blow
ing up of the omnibus train at Kuleli
Burgas. but the Philippopolis report
establishes the fact that the original
plan was aimed against the leading
TranseurOpean express for the purpose
of impresSing the world with the mag
nitude of the disorder,
The reports received here from the
French consuls at Salonika and Mo-
nastir are very ~reassuring. They say
they have no further fear for their
lives unless the Turkish sOldiery be-
ome lawless. The reports add that
forty-nine Turkish battaliOns have been
withdrawn from Albania and concen-
trated around SalOnika, as the Alba
nian disorders have been crushed.
The most remarkable feature of the
reports discloses the fact that the
Turkish force, which totaled 10000
men when the troops entered Albania
six months ago, has now been reduced
to $4,000 men, showing a loss Of $1,000
troops. Few of the soldiers died of
disease. The loss was chiefly in men
killed while crushing the Albanian up
rising.
