er's Return.

Dresden, March 1O.-Little Prince
George, eldest son Of the Grown Prince
Frederick, was recently missing from
the palace and for several hours his
tutors and the household officials were
in CONSERVATION. The favorite rumor
was that the prince had been abducted
by agents Of his mother, the former
Crown Princess Louise. The boy was
found praying in the cathedral that his
mother might return.
The socialists are using the crown
princess episode for political agita-
ton, and the unpopularity Of the Sax.
ony monarchy appears to have been
considerably heightened. The carriage
Of Princess Mathilde, sister of the
crown prince, was surrounded by a
crowd in Wilsdruffer strass, one of the
principal shopping streets Of Dresden,
one day last week, and the cries of
"Give US our Louise" were raised.
Princess Mathilde was so frightened
that when the police reached the scene
she was escorted to shop and event.
ually went out by the rear door and
took another carriage home. Several
similar incidents, showing the unpopu.
larity of the royal house. have occur.
red since the agitation caused by the
elopement of the Princess Louise, but
none Of them has been mentioned in
the newspapers Of Dresden;

TRADE REPORT.

R. G. Dun & Co.'s Weekly Review Of
Trade last week says:
Further improvement in the move
ment of freight and fuel makes the
general situation more favorable, al
though shippers are still constantly
complaining and pig iron furnaces are
not able to run steadily. Numerous
labor struggles are interrupting man
ufacturing, yet mills and shops are
producing freely as a rule. Jobbers
and wholesalers are busy, while spring
retail trade has opened very well IN
many lines. notably wearing apparel.
Permits for building operations show
large gains over last years figures,
giving additional strength to lumber
and other materials. Prices of COM
modities scarcely alter in the aggre-
gate during February. Foreign trade
continues very heavy. Conditions in
the iron and steel industry need no
other calculation than the plans for
extensions announced by the United
States Steel corporation.
Spinners are growing very conserva-
tive in regard to accepting contracts
calling for distant deliveries of cot
ton goods, owing to the uncertainty as
to what the raw material will COST
Dealings are small in woolens and
worsteds, but mills are fully occupied.
The spring clothing trade Is satisfac-
tory. especially in staple lines.
