railroad comes in response to an I'M
perative demand on the part OF the

tion to opening up an exceedingly
rich piece of territory, IL gives the

Wednesday. Mr.. Sheppard Watson,
who was sent here by the factories,
arrived today from Atlanta, Ca,
where he has just finished conducting
a like sale. AS soon as he arrived he
began the work of opening up the
goods shipped here by the large fac
tories and mills and pinning on the
yellow price tickets. Mr.. Watson,
who during the sale has full charge
of the store, asked us to state that at
the low prices asked for the goods
nothing can be charged, and another
reason is that a settlement must be
made between the factories and store
on the last day. Every lady is in
vited to attend the sale examine the
goods and see the manner in Which it
will be carried on whether they care
to purchase or not The stock car
ried by this store guarantees bargains

ORDER AGAINST STRIKERS.
Union Men Are Enjoined from Inter
fering in Management Of
Santa Fe Road.

Albuquerque, N. NJ, April S0.-Judge
B. S. Banker, of the district court, has
issued an injunction upon the request of
the Santa Fe railroad against machin-
lists, boiler makers, their helpers and ap-
prentices and metal workers, now on
strike, restraining them from in any
manner interfering with the agents
and employees of the company in the
management, movement or operation Of
the company's engines, cars, and all
other machinery and appliances. They
are also enjoined from interfering with
the men who are taking the places of
the strikers, and are restrained from
entering upon the company's right Of
way and other grounds and property.
The injunction is the most far reaching
ever issued by a court in the territory.
The strike situation has assumed
larger proportions by the action of the
metal workers, coppersmiths, pipemen,
with their apprentices and helpers, the
boiler makers and their apprentices and
helpers, in walking out. An effort is be-
ing made to have the blacksmiths join
thes trikers.

THE SEASON is BACKWARD
THIS FACTOR ACTS AS A CHECK
TO TRADE PROGRESS.
Dealers Somewhat Depressed at the
Absence of the Usual Spring
Demand.

New York, April 3O.-Bradstreet's
says: "Distributive trade continues
quiet at most markets, and April trade
the country over has not equaled a
year ago. The absence heretofore of
the usual volume of spring demand is
depressing to dealers, who fear they
will be obliged to carry over surplus
stocks. Signs of improvements are,
however, to be noted in the northwest,
where better weather has helped retail
and wholesale trade. Pacific coast
trade and crop advices are better than
of late, and while weather and crop
conditions are backward, at the south
the exceptionally strong position Of the
leading interests renders the outlook
for the future very hopeful. A favor
able development of the week has been
the breaking of the drought in the
southwest. Backward weather has re-
tarded cotton planting and spring
wheat seeding, while crop termination
and growth is generally reported slow
the country over. During the first four
months Of the year upward of 125, 900
men have struck for various causes,
but while there is considerable unrest,
rather less than the usual May day
disturbances are looked for"
r. G. Dun & Co.'S Weekly Review Of
Trade says: Business continues 10
move in most conservative channels,
purchases being restricted to immedi-
ate requirements and weather condi-
lions dominating the situation to an
unusual extent At many points there
has been little spring trade and the
transition from winter to summer will
be accomplished with scarcely any In
termediate season. Considering this adj
verse factor, the current volume Of
business is remarkably satisfactory.
Building operations are also deferred
to late date. Much structural work is
projected, however, and at some IA
vored points last years record PROM
| Uses to be surpassed. AS rule manu-
featuring plants are not working at
full capacity. idle machinery being
most extensive in textile industries.
Floods and storms have interrupted
traffic. yet railway earnings thus far
reported for April are only SIS per cent.
