the junction at Rincon UP to Deming
and Silver City was wrecked Tues
day night near Hatch, just before II
reached the Rio Grande bridge. The
branch train makes pretty good time
and it was bowling along at high
speed when a horse started across the
track directly in front Of the engine.
The equine was struck ~amidships
and converted into mincemeat, ditch
ing the whole train. Every car left
the track and the most incredible
thing about the accident Is that not
q man was injured, in the engine or

after reaching Rincon backed up to
the wreck and brought down the pas
sengers and mail, arriving nearly an
hour late here in consequence yester-
day morning.

DUN'S REVIEW,

New York, March 10. r. G. Dun &,
Co.'S weekly review of trade tomorrow
will say:
Reports from all sections of the country
promise brisk spring and summer trade.
Orders are coming forward on a large
scale and frequent requests for prompt
shipment indicate that stocks are low
and requirements urgent Western shin
ments are fairly prompt, but freight is
not coming east in a satisfactory man.
rer Heavy distribution of wages makes
retail trade active and collections prompt
III the anthracite region, yet dealers are
carrying small stocks of merchandise as
rule. Activity in building lines is so
great as to occasion frequent comment.
Bad weather retarded retail business at
some points and floods added to the dis
turDed condition of the cotton market
Railway earnings continue to exceed
previous years, roads reporting for the
ilrst week of March showing a gain of
al per cent over last year and of 1S3
per cent over 1901. 1t is almost certain
that railroad construction will far exceed
even last years enormous figures and
similar conditions exist as to building and
bridge operations. Despite the higher
range of quotations prevailing abroad,
many contracts are being placed with
ioiSiSh piOuuceTS. Noteworthy strength
again appeared in the minor metals.
especially in copper, which reached the
highest point since 1901 Eastern produce
ers of footwear report new business in
fall shoes quiet as yet but very heavy
sample lots have been sold and the out
look is satisfactory. Buyers are still re-
luctant to pay the small advance in ouo-
tations. Leather is more quiet but stocks
do not accumulate owing to old orders.
An erratic market for the raw material.
together with unfavorable weather brings
decrease in sales of cotton goods. Quo
tations are fully maintained. neverthe-
less especially on forward deliveries.
only fair demand Is reported for mems

tremely conservative and frequently sub
stitute new lines that have recently
opened at slightly better terms. Removal
OF the embargo in Massachusetts, resulted
in very heavy shipments of wool and
prices are fairly steady.

FOOD PROTECTION.
The Circuit Court of the United States
Decides In Favor of the ln-er-seaI
PACKAGE.

A decision far reaching In its effect and
of interest to all lovers of pure food has
just been handed down by Judge Adams
in the Circuit court of the United States.
The suit in question was brought
against The Union Biscuit Company for
infringement on the 1n-er-seal package,
controlled exclusively by TIE National
Biscuit Company. for the protection of
biscuit and crackers against Gust, mois-
ture, odor and germs.
In deciding against The Union Biscuit
Company, Judge Adams says:
1.-The proof abundantly shows that prior
to the invention of the patent, the old
paper cartons or boxes. were inadequate
to the demands of the service required Of
them; that their contents deteriorated
rapidly in substance and flavor; that they
were subjected to the baneful effects of
the air, moisture and dust Since the in
PRODUCTION of the box of the patent rad
ical change has taken place. This boz
has been found equal to the climatic and
other local conditions in all parts of the
country, from New Orleans to New York
from Florida to Minnesota, ana from
California to Massachusetts The uniform
testimony from all these regions is to the
effect that the contents of the box are
preserved in their original freshness and
flavor.
1.-THE whole testimony in my opinion
clearly shows that the box or the patent
materially facilitates the distribution of
inexpensive food products to the consum-
er and at the same time lessons the cost
and enhances the intrinsic value of such
products
Judge Adams full decision against the
infringement not only shows the great
Importance of the In-er-seal package. but
is so broad and conclusive as to prevent
any further infringement or use In viola
ton of the rights of the National Biscuit
Company

crease of 109,353.
Northern mill takings and Canada dur
ing the past seven days show decrease

spending period last year. and their total
takings since September 1 have increased

have decreased during the week 191,C

spending period last season of 42.3O4 and
are now ga, 4S3 smaller than at this date
in 1902.
Including stocks left over at ports and
interior towns from the last crop and
the number of bales brought into sight
thus far tor the new crop, the supply to
date is $3.50, 397 against 9,443.s54 for the
same period last year.
1t must be remembered that the weekly,
monthly and seasons comparisons in Sec
| rotary Hester's reports are made up to
corresponding dates last year, year be-
fore and In 1900. Comparisons to close of
corresponding weeks are misleading as
totals to close of this week last year
would take In 1876 days of the season,
year before last 1856 days and In 1900 1877
days, against only 1874 days this year.
