FALL OF SNOW.
Sufficiently Heavy for Street-Car
Company to Get Out Sveepers.

The prophecy of the weather forecaster
was fulfilled last night and the expected fall
in the temperature and fiurries of snow
came and served TO add to the discomforts
of out-of-door exertion. The snow began to
fall shortly after o'clock in small flakes,
which melted as they struck the ground,
but later in the evening the increasing wind
and the lower temperature caused the snow
to lightly cover She earth. Before midnight
snow of considerable depth had fallen and
was still falling. The street car company
sent snow sweepers over it's lines. and with
the exception of the slight disarrangement
of the schedule for the owl cars had no
trouble. The sweepers were continued at
work throughout the night to keep the
tracks clear for the traffic to-day.

Absorbent gauze is virtually our old friend
cheese cloth. and. although one may prefer
it antiseptically prepared, as for AVrgeon's

should be used as towels and wash rags
during trip of any length. IT is light

tanned at very cheap rates and in any
quantity from the nearest druggist. The
plain cheese cloth makes excellent pantry

HOG MARKET
WAS STEADY
, Light Receipts Preceding the
National Holiday
TOP PRICE WAS S5.52 -
Cattle Receipts Were Too
Light to Make a Market
TOP PRICE WAS 1852 IL

Hog receipts were light yesterday pre-
ceding the national holiday. Shippers
very naturally concluded that packers
would not be anxious 10 buy hogs yester-
day 10 hold over until next week, and
the prevalence Of this IDEA probably
had something 70 DO with the light re-
ceipts- The buyers and sellers both
quoted The market &c lower. but there
were no car hogs that sold a cent cheap
er than the previous day. The late ar
rivals the previous night brought steady
prices but the buyers said that was b.
cause they had agreed 10 protect the
shippers who came after the market
closed Thursday night These held-cver
hos sold for $50, buJ a car load that
came IN in n, afternoon brought $5.5-s.
which was the top prise Thursday. The
packers here have wanted the hogs and
they have paid comparatively good
prices al this week. The shippers know
this and they have been satisfied with
the prices received for their hogs.

DUN'S TALK
ON TRADE
New Fiscal Year Begins Under
Good Auspices
WEATHER Is SEASONABLE
lnSOlvencieS Are Fewer and
Railway Earnings Better

New York. July 3-R G. Dun's &
Co.'S Weekly Review Of Trade tomorrow
viii say:
\ new fiscal year has commenced under
more favorable auspices than appeared
possible a short tine ago. Seasonable
weather has also contributed 10 the bet
ter distribution Of merchandise beside
encouraging buying sentiment in the
agricultural district Railway earnings
and output Of pig iron were larger.
while insolvenciss were fewer. Earnings
OF railways thus far reported for June
surpass last years by u per cent and
those OF 1851 By ls.4 per cent
More inquiries for pig iron have ap-
Peared and although the actual contracts
are for comparatively small quantities
the tone is distinctly better. Bessemer
iron is not offered for the third quarter
by the association and orders accepted
for early deliveries are taken BY mid
dlenen 10 have stocks on hand. The sit
uauon has bee ncompucs;ed during the
past week by the strike Of the coal min
ers in Alabama. which threatens TO re-
strict the output OF southern iron. In
so far as quotations are concerned this
is a strengthening factor and is also
calculated 10 bring out considerable bus
mess that Is being held back in expecta-
ton OF better terms Steel rails are still
the best featured market for the finished
products. Fully half q million tons are
now booked for next years delivery and
many orders for 1910 Will be carried over.
Structural material moves freely consid-
ering the labor situation in the building
trades. while there is notable activity
in bars and especially for agricultural
implements and machinery works.
Footwear manufacturers IN New Eng
land have received liberal supplementary
orders for fall shoes from eastern jobbers
in addition TO a fair supply OF contracts
already on hand.
A-euiet season in the leather market
has produced small concessions in prices
Of hemlock sole and oak betting butts.
while harness leather is now the most
active feature. Both domestic and for

feature
Slight advances are recorded in some
divisions OF the cotton market. but the
changes are practically nominal
