TRADE OUTLOOK UNSETTLED
THOUGH ACTIVE ATPRESENT.
Dun's Review Says New Labor
Controversies Have Arisen
Railway Earnings Good.

New York. Sept. 25.-R. C. Dun & Co.'S
weekly review of trade tomorrow will
say:
Notwithstanding several unsatisfactory feat
ures. the volume Of trade continues large and
the distribution of merchandise taxes shipping
facilities. Announcement Of Il concerted effort
to restrict production of pig iron indicates that
supplies have begun to accumulate.
Railway earnings continue TO show gains for
September. thus far exceeding last years by
81 per cent and those Of 1901 by liz per cent.
Traffic blockades occurred TO some extent. al
though the movement OF farm products is still
unseasonably small.
New labor controversies have begun. but a
lumber Of serious troubles have been averted,
and on the whole the number of men idle vol
UNFAIRLY has diminished.
Enforced idleness in the iron and steel indus
try is more than onset by the ~umptio OF
tlvity at footwear factories. although the mar
gin OF profit is narrow.

isons with previous years. and, while the
zenith has been passed in fall dry goods. it is

although IL IS known that much business is
under consideration. Owing TO the demoralized
condition of the manufacturers, supplies OF
piG-iron have accumulated. and it Is now gen
orally agreed among leading producers that q
Curtailment OF blast-furnace output is neces-
sary. Encouraging reports are heard as TO
few branches of the industry, notably wire and
some structural shapes.
AS to woolens. the best business is noted in
dress goods, while means wear fabrics are
still very quiet.
Failures this week numbered 232 in the United
States, against 207 last year, and u in Canada,
compared with 80 a year ago.

THE FRENCH BUDGET
Sent Back to Senate to Have Ex-
plunged Items Re-inserted.

Paris, Dec. 2S.--In the Chamber of
Deputies, today, during a debate on
the amendments to the budget propo-
;als adopted in the Senate, Premier
tomhas raised the question of conf
lence in the government and obtained
majority of 100.
The point at issue was the appropria-
ton for the special service magistrates
which are suppressed by the Chamber
and restored by the Senate.
Several deputies insisted that the
Senate in restoring the appropriation
1ad acted unconstitutionally as it had
not the authority under the constitu-
ion to propose financial expenditures.
Premier CombaS cut short the debate
by declaring that ne would not discuss
he constitutional question involved.
He said that The appropriation Was cs-
5ential and that if it We're not voted he
would tender his resignation.
The Chamber then restored several
of the appropriations suppressed by
the Senate and consequently the bud
get will go to the Senate again.

DOWD NOW PETITIONS
That He Be Pardoned on Grounds of
innocence Shown.

Boston. Dec. 28.-Following the re-
cent pardon of Thomas Logue of Law
renee, by Gov. Bates on the ground of
fatal illness. the friends of Thomas
Dowd, who with the former was sen-
fenced to life imprisonment, June 27
1899. for aSSaultng Il Lowell merchant
Will now ask for a pardon on the
ground of innocence. The application
already has been filed and will be re-
served for the pardon committee of the
next executive council.
At the time of their arrests both
Logue and Dowd protested their inno-
cence, but the victim of the assault
claimed to have identified the men as
the assailants. Logue is now dying at
his home in Lawrence.
The filing of the petition for the par
don of DoWd will bring into the case
Allen and Robert w. Vaughn, who are
now serving life sentences in state
prison for assault.
The Vaughn brothers were sentenced
about the same time as Logue and
Dowd. The brothers had been con-
victcd of robbery and assault on Off
Ger Healey of Lowell. The friends of
DoWd will contend that these brothers
and not Logue and Dowd committed
the assault of which the latter were
convicted.

DEFIED MILITIA :
Attorney Glover Decided He
Wouldn't Give Up Arms.
So the Militia Moved on His Office at
C ippIe Creek, Col.
After Being Shot in Arm He Decided
to Surrender.

Cripple Creek, Col, Dec. 2S-Excite-
ment was occasioned here, today, by
the action of Attorney John *. Glover,
formerly q congressman from Missouri,
in defying the military, barricading
himself in his Office and only surrend-
cred after receiving a bullet wound in
the arm. Col. Verdickberg COM
handing the military, today, received
a letter from Mr.. Glover denying the
legality of the recent order for the
surrender of arms by citizens. In his
letter Glover referred to Gov. Peabody
as "a cheap Anarchist" He declares
that he had two revolvers in his office
and defied the military to take them
from him.
Col. Verdickbcrg at once dispatched
Maj. Naylor with a squad to capture
the attorney and his weapons The
lawyers Office was found barricaded
and Clover appeared with a revolver,
declaring that he would shoot the first
man who attempted to break down the
door. The place was surrounded by
the troops and orders We're given to
shoot the man if ne appeared with a
revolver again.
Later Glover appeared and several
shots were exchanged. Glover was
wounded in the arm, after which he
was captured.

STUBBORN BLAZE
Gives Fire Ladies' Of Boston
Fierce TussIe.
Streets Tco Narrow 10 Allow Use Of
Ladders or Water Tower.
Four Alarms Sent In-Great Danger
but No One Hurt.

Boston, Dec. 2S.-The most danger
Gus and stubborn fire that the Boston
fremen have had to contend with in 4
long time broke out shortly after mid
night in four-story block on Federal
street occupied by wholesale paper
dealers After the hardest kind of fire
fighting the flames We're subdued by
l O'Clock, although the building and
the contents We're destroyed, nothing
remaining but the bare walls.
The loss is estimated at fully $780,,
900. The difficulty in fighting the fire
lay in the fact that the building was
situated between two alleys So narrow
as to make the raising of aerial ladders
and the use of water towers impos
sible
Four alarms were sounded and prac-
tically the entire fire department of the
city was on the scene. Small ladders
We're brought into use, but the heat
from the flames was so fierce that the
firemen had to abandon them. Some
of the ladders We're destroyed. TIE
night was bitterly cold, and the water
froze on the ladders and on the roof,
making it unsafe for the firemen. The
narrow alleys were. soon filled With
falling bricks and laths, but despite
the danger no one was seriously in
jured.
The building was situated between
Milton place and Federal court, these
being narrow alleys running parallel
to and lying between DeVOnshire and
Federal streets. The building was oc
cupied by Stone & Forsyth. and Cole
man brothers, both firms being dealers
in paper.
Several office buildings in the vicin-
ity suffered a loss, inasmuch as the
doors leading to them were broken in
to allow the firemen to run hose from
Devonshire and Federal streets to the
i windows looking on the court.
