DUN'S TRADE REVIEW.
Slow Movement of Freight Is q Very
Embarrassing Feature.

New York, Jan. PR. G. Dun &
Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade says:
Heavy transactions in merchandise
are reported, but there is much COM
plaint regarding the slow movement
of freight. The situation as to gen
eral lines is aggravated by the prece-
dence given fuel over all other freight
except live stock and perishable
goods. Notwithstanding the extern
sive Increase in transporting facili-
ties during the past year, some roads
have been compelled to decline con-
signments, and in many cases where
a large number Of cars were desired,
only one was provided. Earnings
thus far available for January sur
pass last years by per cent 1t is
conspicuous in practically every sec
ton of the country that, despite high
prices, buying is liberal and of the
better qualities of goods, while deal
ings as rule are on more of cash
basis.
Firmness has characterized the
course of the leading staples, an
abundant demand being in evidence
while available supplies are restrict
ed by traffic conditions.
Failures for the week numbered 265
in the United States against 3O1 last
year, and - in Canada, compared with
90 year ago.

BRIBERY INQUIRY.
Congressman LeRsIer Tells His story
10 The InXestIgatOrs.

Washington, Jan. 24.-The house
committee on naval affairs yesterday
began the investigation authorized
by the house on the charge made by
Representative Lessler, of New York,
that he had been approached with an
offer of money for his vote in favor
of construction of submarine torpedo
boats. Representative Lessler was
the first witness and his examination
occupied great portion of the ses-
sion.
Mr.. Lessler identified Philip Doblin
and told Of a conversation he had had
with him.
Mr.. Lessler said Mr.. Doblin came
to him and asked if the Holland SUBJ
marine torpedo boat proposition
would again come before the house.
Il said | suppose so. He asked if L
was still opposed to it, and l said I
was"
Mr. Lessler testified that Mr. Dob-
lin said he had been sent for by Mr..
Quigg and Mr.. Quigg had told him
there was $1,000 in it if he (Lessler)
could be brought to the other side.
Mr.. Lessler said he said there must
pc no IuTIner talK on tnat PROPOSE
tion. Mr.. Lessler then said that Dob
lin suggested that Mr.. Quigg was q
man of influence and that if | want
ed to come back here | would be aid
ing myself by doing him this favor"
Mr.. Lessler then told of a conversa-
tion that he had with Mr.. Quigg in
New York.
Mr.. Leumel L. Quigg made the fol-
lowing statement last night with ref
erence to the testimony given by Rep
resentative Lessler:
81 have no interest whatsoever. and
never have had an interest in the Hol-
land torpedo boat or in any of the
companies organized to promote it.
Nor am |, nor was | ever, in any way
interested in legislation in their be-
half"
Mr.. Quigg also denied the state-
ments made concerning Doblin so far
as they associated him (Quigg) with
offers of money.

MURDER AND SUICIDE.
A ChIcagOan Kills His Housekeeper
and Cuts His own Throat.

Chicago, Jan. 24.-Mrs. Stella
Wright, a young woman acting as
housekeeper for William f. Lewis, a
carpenter living at 4449 State street,
was killed yesterday by Lewis. The
crime, the cause of which is not
known, was committed with a hatch
ct, the head of the woman being cut
open. As soon as the killing was re-
ported to the police they commenced
a search for Lewis, who had disap-
peared. No trace was found of him
until last night, when he appeared at
his home, where three officers were
on guard. He was placed under ar
rest after a desperate fight.
While on the way to the police sta
tion he requested one of the officers,
who was holding his hand, to loosen
his grasp little, and as soon as the
officer complied Lewis snatchcd ra-
zor from his pocket and cut his own
throat At midnight he was alive,
but there Is no chance of his recov-
cry. Both before and after cutting
his throat he admitted that he had
killed the woman.

FOUR WE'RE KILLED.
A Ship Il Driven Ashore and Wrecked
Near Atlantic CITY.

Atlantic City, n. j., Jan. 22.-The
bark Abiel Abbott, from Turks ISL
and for New York, went aground near
Ship Bottom light Tuesday night and
Is going to pieces. Five of her crew
or nine men were picked up by the
life savers, but it is believed the 9TH
er four were killed by falling wreck
age
One of the men of the Abbott died
OF exposure in the Ship Bottom sta
tion. The other four are unconscious
and their conditions critical.
The Abbott struck about 10 o'clock
Tuesday night. At that time there
was driving southeaster and tre-
mendous seas were running. The life
savers launched the life boat and
started to the rescue. After battling
with the heavy seas for three hours
and getting near enough to distin-
guish several men clingng to the rig
ging, they were forced to abandon
the attempt at rescue and await day
break.
When the life savers reached the
Abbott in the morning, it was found
that she was dismasted and there
was no sign of life on board. After
cruising about the wreck for some
time they located the Abbott's house.
Clinging to the top of the wreckage
and almost dead from exhaustion
were five members of the crew. They
were quickly taken into the life boat
and brought ashore, none able to tell
of their terrible sufferings

Do children lie? Yes; constantly,
persistently and universally, says Kin
dergarten Magazine. A child does
not tell the truth because he could
not. He does not know the truth, and
his approximation to the truth is very
much vaguer to ours. And there are
certain qualities of his mind, which
make it inevitable that he should per
vert the truth. In the first place,
truth is synonymous with knowledge.
He does not know what truth is. In
the second place (and it is the same
with us), children gradually approx
mate the truth. They have their ideas
of truth. In the third place, the
child's imagination drives him otter
to tell what is not true.

Mr.. j. Pierpont Morgan is the own
er of magnificent art collection in
Europe. He wants to bring it to this
country, but the tariff laws, framed
for the protection of the infant art in
dustry of America, will not let him do
so without paying duty. The duty on
the collection, it is said, would amount
to something like $50O,OOO Secretary
Shaw has informed Mr.. Morgan that
there are just two ways by which he
can bring in the collection without
paying duty. One is to expatriate
himself for year and then bring in
the art objects as ''household effects, -
and the other is to organize an insti-
tuition to exhibit the treasures.
