Postmaster General Payne will place
all railroad trains beyond the harm of

trains mail trains, and will commission
all trainmen as employees of the postal

incumbent on all trainmen to carry let

convenient it would be.-Princeton

Russia is weak by reason of it's own

of teaching them the use of liberty

lest they learn the sweetness of free

are virtually, serfs. AS a rule, the

E. q. Princes Grain Letter.

Chicago, August 1.-The gwheat MAR
ket more than recovered the loss slls-
tained yesterday and was very strong
all day. Influences were exceedingly
bad, crop reports from the northwest
being factor. These reports were ac-
companied by good buying orders and
there was great strength In
northwest market. Broomhall esti-
mates small worlds shipments for Men
day. Local sentiment very bullish.
Corn-Strength in corn was all in
sympathy with the wheat market. Dis
tant months were strongest owing to
the quantity of seed corn that was on
the market. Selling was of influential
character mostly by leading brokers.
Late buying was good and offerings
scarce. Trade was fair but market was
not as active at it has leen recently
Heavy rains west and southwest have
supplied all needed moisture, but the
weather is a little too cool; temperature
rising. The cash demand is very slow
and movement small.
Oats-There has been fair trade in
oats and they were a strength to the
market In spite Of selling credited to
Armour and other intiuen tial parties.
The fact that contract oats have accu-
to such an extent creates a
rather bearish feeling but strength in
other grains more than offsets this in
auence.
Provisions-Local buying caused fair
In provisions. Tie market was
slow and without feature.

GEMS IN VERSE

In the Garden.
The rose is made of little frills.
The lily is n cup,
And goblets are the daffodils
From which the fairies sup.
The daisy is daring sun.
So small and round and sweet;
The sunflower is bigger one
Though never half so neat.
It sounds mysterious and yet
You really can't deny
The lovely little violet
Was once piece of sky.
The orchids. that may not touch,
Are curious. like shells;
The hyacinths remind ME much
or lots OF little bells.
In fact, through sill our garden plot.
In summer time or spring.
There's hardly any flower that's not
Just like some other thing.

CATTLE AND SHEEP GOING EAST.
St. Paul Expects to See 10000 Cars of

st. Paul Expects to See 10000 Cars of
the Former Pass Thru That City.
st. Paul, Aug. 1.-Sheep from the
western ranges are passing thru st.
Paul to South ST Paul. Chicago, and
the eastern markets Traffic men pre-
dict the movement this year. including
the cattle business, which will begin
August 1. will reach 10000 cars thru
st. Paul.
The South ST. Paul markets will
draw heavily on the east bound ship
ments of sheep and is beginning to
take the early arrivals from Montana
points. The Judith Basin country will
send large shipments, which will go
forward as soon as the wool clip is out
of the way. During the next five weeks
it is expected that 1000 cars of sheep
from Montana and North Dakota will
be received at South ST. Paul. either
for feeding purposes or for slaughtar.
The east bound shipments are delayed
at the yards there long enough to feed,
as compelled by the federal and state
laws.
1t is expected that this years cattle
movements will be very heavy The
lines handling this traffic between ST.
Paul and Chicago look for shipments
equal to those of last year which kept
cattle trains on several lines moving
half-hourly every night during the
shipping season. Additional facilities
for handling stock business are being
provided to expedite shipments.
Freight trains will be about the same
as year ago, with few changes worth
New tariffs just issued
make no notifications of rates. but
give few slight establishments of rules

New York, Aug. 1.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'S Weekly Review Of Trade toda,
says:
1 Further evidence of the solid basis
upon which legitimate trade is estab-
lished has been furnished by the equan
unity with which commercial and fl
nancial institutions regard the recent
speculative collapse. Much more harm
/! has been done to the countrys manu-
/ features and trade by the inflated
prices of cotton than by the depression
In stocks. Reports are almost unani /.
nous as to the heavy distribution OF
merchandise, and this is shown statis-
tically by the increase in railway
earnings thus far reported for July,
1875 per cent over last years and PSI
per cent above 1901
1 AS rule retail trade in summer fab
RIGS has continued heavy, and jobbers
report fall business opening we'll La
Dor is we'll employed thruout the coun-
try, except where voluntarily idle. Ag-
ricultural news is favorable. Foreign
trade is maintained, both exports and
imports from this city showing gains
over the corresponding week last year.
Moderate improvement is noted in
the tone of the iron and steel indus
try. There is striking absence of
urgent orders, however especially in
lines outside Of railway equipment
There is less anxiety regarding the
danger of overproduction, altho dozens
Of new blast furnaces are in course of
construction, and an active capacity
of 20,000,000 tons annually Is now as
sured.
Gables report spirited bidding by
European rail mills for large contracts
in America that home producers can
not consider, owing to their over-sold
condition. Coke is moving freely, but
the Alabama coal strike still disturbs
furnacemen. Another decline has tax
en- copper to about 10 cents.
Textile industries are still waiting
for readjustment or evidence of per-
manehce in the present position of
prices for raw material. In cotton
goods orders are placed only upon
condition of prompt delivery, yet it
is significant that stocks do not ac-
cumulate at the mills, which are stead
lily increasing their percentage of idle
machinery. Consequently prices are
fully sustained, rendering a good profit
to the manufacturers who hold raw
material purchased at normal prices
Aside from a few of the highest
grades. new lines of lightweight WOOL
ems for next spring are fully opened.
Prices are about the same as a year
ago. Buyers are numerous in the lead |
ing markets taking wooden goods free
ly. and showing a preference for the
fancy grades. Footwear factories are
crowded with work, orders coming in
briskly for fall goods. and western
jobbers have placed additional con-
tracts for next spring. Hides again I
average much lower, and this continued I
weakness encourages shoe manufac-
turers to postpone purchases Of leath-
er in expectation of better terms.

Bradstreet's Review Of Trade.
Bradstreet's today says

| BradstreetS today says:
| Weather, crop and trade conditions
are seasonably favorable, though ir-
regularity and weakness in some prices
reflect readjustments Of consumption
| to enlarged production Copious rains
In the corn belt, and in the western
cotton region, have removed some Of
the uneasiness existing as to the turn
out of these two great crops, and de-
| spite this backwardness the outlook for
general trade has been measurably
helped.
A favorable feature this week is the
reported improvement in foreign de.
mand for our breadstuffs, considerable
quantities of our new wheat and old
corn reported being taken. Accom-
panying this has been an improvement
in the outside interest in the cereal
markets Worlds stocks show little or
no change for the week.
The first six months of 1903 witness
ed record breaking production of pig
iron, and the same is true of the fiscal
year ended June 80. In addition $685.
600 tons of pig iron were imported and
the imports of other iron and steel,
partly manufactured, make our I'M
ports of foreign iron equivalent to
1 ,676, 900 tons. This added TO the pro-
duction of 1S,72O,OO0 tons indicates
total consumption in the past fiscal
year of 2O.396,OOO tons, total of 81
600, 900 larger than that of the previous
year.
Hides are rather irregular. but shoe
shipments from eastern points are 81
per cent larger than this week year
ago, and for the season fully 10 per
cent
Wheat, including flour exports for the
week aggregate 3191,442 bushels,
against, 2.7S1,9SS last week. 4,5SS534
this week last year For four weeks of |
the cereal year they aggregate 1906
