Early this morning fuzzy 1900 people
gathered under the shade OF the colon
made of St. Peters, and from O'Clock

supposed to indicate that the first ballot

windows of the balcony over the portico
Of st. Peters, from which point the new
Pope will bless the people.

"Dun's Review" says: Further evil
dence OF the solid basis upon which le-
climate trade IS established has been
furnished by the equanimity with which
commercial and financial institutions re-
gard the recent speculative collapse.
There is no indication that the broker
age failures or the severe decline in
prices OF securities were extensively felt
outside Of Wall Street. Much more harm
mas been done to the country's manufac-
turers and trade by the inflated prices
Of cotton than by the depression in
stocks. Reports are almost unanimous
as to the heavy distribution OF merchan-
disc. and this is shown statistically by
the increase in railway earnings thus
far reported for July. 1875 per cent over
last years. and 23-I per cent above 1901.

the steady investment demand for Sc

The statement was disappointing in
that it failed to show the heralded de-

shows an increase OF nearly 81 OOO. 900.

confirming the receipt of the letter,
says he believes it was the work of a
fool, but that he decided to take every
prcauion, hence the guards. Nothing
