She Was a Highly Esteemed Resi-
 dent of Fort Deposit,


 Fort Deposit, Jan. 23.-(Special)- Hattie Rivers. wife of J. w. Rivers. died yesterday after an illness of few days, and was buried this morning beside her newborn babe. Rev. l.. F. Lathram otii- ciated. Her father and mother, Mir. and Mrs. Matthews of Mt Carmel. were at her bedside. Mrs Rivers was member of the Christian Church. She was wo- nan of cultured mined and of most lov- able character. She leaves five children by a former marriage, her first husband having been Prof. Davis Garrett, who died several years ago. The children will make their home with their uncle and aunt, Dr. and Mrs. Shackleford of Leto- hatchie.
 Fort Deposit Is on the long ridge of high hills which divide the Alabama River Valley from the Gulf slope and is known to be nearly the highest point between Montgomery and Mobile. A few days ago some men ascended a precipituous blum on the railroad not far north of town and were both surprised and delighted by the distant and enchanting view there afforded. The scene below presented nearly every variety of land and type of population. Rude negro cabins on the hiilsides contrasted strangely with the hlg white buildings near by erected by North erners for negro school
 Nesting in the valley were the homes of prosperous farmers as well as an es- tate of many thousand broad acres. Big swamp plantations. famous now as in the days of slavery for rich black soil and 4eerning negro population. stretched away until lost to view in the forests along the distant horizon. Thirty miles away toward the north the giittering dome of the state Capitol stood out clearly against

BRADsTREET's REVIEW.

New York, Jan. 23.-Bradstreet's tomor- row will say: Previously existing favor able conditions still rule. Spring trade shows further expansion particularly in dry goods, such as linens, wash fabrics, underwear and hosiery. Clothing, shoes, harware and hardwood lumber are active and the volume of shipments of spring goods to fill orders offers still another companies to solve. A spell or mAId weather has induced the beginning of Ithe usual clearanQe sales Of surplus winter goods by retailers. 1t has also tended to soften the acuteness of the anthracite coal shortage at the East and cause a lowering in prices. This, how ever, is regarded as temporary only, an- other seasonable cold snap containing great possibilities in the way of enhanc- ed prices. The snow covering on winter wheat is not uniform, and is on the whole rather scant, but no unusual de- terioration Is reported.
 Among manufactured products the strength of iron and steel Is notable More inquiry for pig iron Is reported by Southern furnaces. In finished products cut nails and wire are S per ton higher. There Is not much new in the import line but prices are strong. Among tin- rails are specially strong and active. Numerous orders for ears are coming forward and this has concealed a large business for miscellaneous steel and for yellow pine. Shelf and heavy hardware is specially active for this season of the year. The strength of building materials is 0 feature deserving of note.
 Mild weather weakens the price of country produce such as butter and eggs. Sugar is unsettled by uncertainties as to reciprocity arrangements with Cuba.
 Textiles, particularly cotton and wooden goods, occupy a strong position. Raw cot ton does not show much change. Cotton goods are strong, feeling the effect the exceptional good spring trade already booked. In dress goods jobbers note an expanding business and mems wear wool ems hold the advaince of 5010 per cent noted at the outset of the season. Raw wool Is firmly held and there Is even some quotable advance noted on the week.
 Business failures for the week ending with January 2 number 253 against 2S4 last week, 292 in the like week in 1902; 2Sl in 1901, 252 in 1900 and 246 in lS99
 Wheat, including flour, exports for the week aggregate 3,53S,757 bushels against 4,S78, ,624 last week, S.639,679 in this week year ago and 4,SSS, ,67S in 1901 Wheat ex- ports since July l aggregate l44l79, ,557 bushels against 161, ,64SSlS last season and l2.049646 in 1900.
 Corn exports aggregate 2,376e0S bushels against 2,S94,6 last week, 179, ,520 a year ago and 3,972,l in 1901. For the fiscal year exports are 1S.S54.70 bushels against 2l, ,4S4.967 last season and H2, 647 in 1901

CABINET AND TRUST LAW.
Pending Bill Not an Administration
 Measure,

Washington. Jan. 2S,-Some considera- ton was given today by the Cabinet to the proposed antitrust legislation now pending in Congress. Regret was ex- pressed that the impression prevailed fin some quarters that the bill reported to the House from tho Judiciary Committee was an administration measure" It is made clear that 1t Is not an administra- ton measure and does not represent en- tirely the views of the administration on what antitrust legislation should be en- acted by this Congress. It can be said to be the hope of President Roosevelt anS his Cabinet that antitrust legislation along the lines indicated by Attorney General Knox in the bills which he sub mitted to tine House Judiciary Commit tee may be enacted at this session,
 Questions of policy regarding appoint nients in the South were also discussed by the Cabinet. The administration has been considering the advisabilIty eff issu- ing an order regarding the fitness for of nes, It was decided, however, not to premuigate any official pronunclamento of that sort,

Candidate for Recorder.

Despite the fact that Hon. Joseph N. McAieer. at the recent Democratic pri- mary. was renominated for the office of Recorder of the city of Mobile by an immense majority over each of his two opponents. 1t is learned he is to have an Independent opponent
 Francis Theodore Perkins, a native of this city and joweler by occupation, this morning stated to The Advertisers rep resentative that he would present himself before the voters of the city for the of- flee of Recorder, as an independent can didate. He stated that he was and al- ways had been a Democrat and had con- f1dence in the result of his candidacy. Mir Perkins spoke earnestly of his intentions and closed his remarks by saying he was in the race to stay until the end.
 Judge McAleer was seen later and asked as to his opinion of the statement of Mir Perkins as to his intent to enter the race made no answer, save that he felt sorry for his friend and fellow citizen."

A Daring Burglary.

A daring burglary was perpetrated some time during last night. in the very heart of the business district of the city. at the northeast corner of Dauphin and Water Streets. A glass in one of the doors fac ing Water Street. in the clothing store Of H. Simon & Co.,, was broken out and the door opened The criminal. for evi- dently only one person committed the deed. entered the store and opened every drawer in the ofice desk.
 A revolver and some small coin were un- disturbed. One of the show windows had been opened and a coat taken out and evidently tried on and later cast aside. It was thought by the proprietors that only one coat and a vest were taken, but examination may reveal further purloin- Ing. The glass. which was about 2 feet long and about 8 inches wide, was com pietely shattered, bits of the glass being strewn for several feet around on the hoor. Catches above and below were used to fasten the door. That the act was daring one may be understood when 1t is known that the premises are not only under police protection but also un- der that of the merchant police, City detectives will endeavor to apprehend the criminal.
