CONDITION OF TRADE.


New York March 1S.-Special trade
advices to the International Mercan-
Tile Agency chronicle Interruptions
and changes incidental to breaking
from snOwstOrms into semblance of
spring weather and the usual seasons
increase of labor disturbances.
The latter, despite their seriousness
at New York, are offset by the conser-
vative action of 100000 soft coal mi
ners who have decided to accept re-
duction in wages.
Prices for wheat and cotton dropped
further than many bears expected.
Over a considerable period wheat
should range relatively high on 50,-
100000 bushels decline in domestic
visible and invisible supplies within
three years. The long-predlcted freer
movement of cotton from the interior
with growing short sentiment has had
the natural effect.
The usual accumulation of funds at
New York, by which banks are
strengthened against the day of Pan
ANA settlements and possible needs
by banks at European centers, is due
in part to checked demands for mer-
camille accommodation.
General trade is quiet st. Louis
makes the brightest returns, with bus
mess we'll ahead of last year in dry
goods and agricultural implements and
swelling volumes of sales of clothing,
drugs and groceries.

A story of witchcraft in east Africa
was told at a meeting of the Folklore
society by Robert Webb. A man ap-
piled to a witch doctor for a powerful
charm to kill an enemy. He was given
a parcel to bury in the path down
which the victim was to walk. To test
it's efficacy the man buried it just out
side the door Of the witch doctors hut.
A female slave Of the magician was
the first to leave the hut and on pass
ing the spot fell dead. The witch doc
tor sued his client for the value of the
dead slave, and the case was tried be-
fore the native courts.-London Mail.

New York, March 18.-The New
York Yacht Club has replied to the
letter of Sir Thomas Upton, in which
the Irish baronet asks IL the club
would accept challenge for race
for the Americas cup under the new
rule OF measurement of the club. This
letter was received early in January
and acknowledged, but it was not
deemed of sufficient Importance to call
special meeting of the club for its
consideration, as no challenge could
be accepted for race this year.
The letter was read to the members
at the annual meeting Feb. 18 and re-
ferred to a special committee with
power to answer for the club.
Sir Thomas Upton, in asking IL the
club would accept a challenge under
the new rules practically asked the
club to bar the Reliance, Constitution
and Columbia from participating in
future races for the cup. These boats
could not be used as defenders, be-
cause the present rules of the club
limit the draught of any boat to 1s
feet, and these three draw 20 feet

points out that the deed of gift re-
quires challenge to come from some

that the New York Yacht Club recog-
nizes. If a challenge is received from
some yacht club asking for a race
under certain conditions then the mat
ter will be considered by the New
