LOCAL WHOLESALE TRADE
THE YEAR OPENS WITH PROMISE
OF A GOOD BUSINESS.
Prices Steady, with Indications of
Grain Markets Are Weaker.

The year opens with promise OF GOOD
business. OF course. yesterday being the
first business day of the year, but little was
done on the wholesale streets, although
number of mail orders were received. TAX
ing account of stock is hardly completed
but by Monday next travelling statesmen will
start out and trade will resume normal
conditions. Several houses have increased
their number of travelling statesmen ana
will reach into new territory. The dry goods
houses, the confectioners and boot and shoe
merchants, as we'll as iron and hardware
stores. with each year, invading new
territory and increasing their business.
Then in all lines of trade the prosperity or
the country has increased the volume or
business of Indiana merchants In the ad-
joining States. In prices. yesterday. there
were no important changes, but 1t is prob
able that poultry, eggs and butter will de-
cline soon, present prices being exorbitant,
all conditions considered, as compared with
former years. On Commission row strong
prices are the feature for choice apples.
but common stock sells at reasonable
figures. Irish and sweet potatoes, cab
bage. onions and kindred articles are
steady and reasonable. and the move
ment is quite satisfactory. There was quite
a squirt Of business on the row, retail gro
GERS and market men laying In stock for
to-days business, the holidays having cut
down their stocks to a low point. Boot and
shoe merchants report the outlook for busl-
ness as very bright. Prices Of the goods
they handle are much the same as for years
past. The same is true of leather. 1t is too
early in the year to make predictions as TO
the future of prices, but ii is hardly be-
lieved there will be any further advances.
Especially Is this true of provisions, which
are taking the place of fresh meats TO a
considerable extent. Flour is steady at the
range Of some time past. This is about the
only market in which prices have not been
advanced to an unreasonable extent.
The so-called equality of factor plan In
the sugar trade will be done away with by
the American Sugar Refining Company to-
day, and national and granulated will be
quoted 4.65c per pound net, 80 days, less
per cent. for cash without rebate. The plan
has been followed by refihers for years
BY ii the grocers received protection to the
extent of sc per 100 pounds. The assertion
is made that as the grocers have not adj
hered to the terms they made and failed &c
sell by the factor plan terms, this ster
becomes necessary. The refners say thai
New England is the only section of the
country which has stood by the plar
strictly. although the grocers of New Yorl
and Pennsylvania have followed closely
Hereafter all sales will be on a net cash
basis.

SCHOOL men SPLIT HAIRS
ARGUMENTS ON COMPARATIVE VAL
UE OF OLD AND NEW METHODS.
Supt. Barlow Protests Against Vaude-
VILE Methods i'm Teaching School
Final Session Held.

The county superintendent of the State
who have been meeting in the Statehouse
for three days, adjourned their annual
meeting yesterday afternoon at 1 o'clock.
So many of the school officials had left the
city that the final session of the meeting
was brought to close earlier than had
been intended.
The papers read before the association
yesterday morning dealt with a number Of
subjects affecting school work. Superin-
tendent Grimes, of Pike county, had for
his subject, Educational Tendencies in
Indiana" Superintendent j. w. Barlow, of
Shelby county, who took part in the dis
cussion of the paper, protested against the
tendency of getting too far away from the
old school methods which produced good
spoilers and good fgurers.
He said that some of the new educa-
tional ideas that are bling brought into
the public schools not only pernicious,
but damnable in their effects.
He vowed that Indiana was not produc-
der the cid regime when the spelling book
and hard work were well mixed.
He read some of the grammar that was
the result of the present educa tional
methods. He decried the tendency to en-
terrain children in school, instead of max
ing them dig, and he thought that the
general Idea was being foStered that there
really Is a royal road to learning, and
that learning can be absorbed instead of
being fought for.
He said that the tendency had gone be-
yond the schools themselves and had
reached the Institutes. Some Of the in
structors, he declared, were little more
than vaudeville artists.
Superintendent John w. Frazier, of Mad
ison county, read paper on Efficiency of
the Common School Graduate" The dis
cussion was by Superintendent A. c. Huff,
of Spencer county. and Superintendent John
w. Lewis. of Wabash county. Superin-
tendent Richard Park. of Sullivan county
read paper on How to Make Prelim-
mary Institutes and School Visits Valua-
ble.'s z. E. Helt. of Vermilion county, and
C. s. Royce. of Ripley county, discussed the
paper.
Papers were also read by Superintendent
A. B. Thomson, of Grant county on Com
mon Mothers the Hope of Our Schools
Elmer c. Jerman. of Decatur county, on
The Real Value of Township High
Schools" and by Frank l.. Jones, state
superintendent. on What Education Is of
the Most Benefit to the Child?'

Settled by Arbitration.

dispute that has been pending for the
last ten years between the transcontinental
lines over circuit passenger rate has final
ly been settled by arbitration, d. w. Cook,
general passenger agent for the Erie, act
ing as arbitrator. The selection was for
tunate one in view of his thorough famil-
iarity with the subject gained during the
time he was connected with the Chicago
Great Western. The question submitted
for consideration was, shall a round-trip
nine-months' rate from st. Paul and points
to California, going and returning via Mis-
souri, river. be s103.5O or Sos? Arguments
for the higher rates were made by General
Passenger Agents r. Lomax, of the Union
Pacific. and Field, of the Northern Pacific,
and by General Passenger Agent Teasdale,
of Omaha, for the minimum. Mr.. Cook s
decision has been made known, and it is in
favor of sos, which will be a source Of
much satisfaction to its advocates.
