Thoraum Has Two nlementu.

NEW YORK, April 9.-Dr Charles Baskerville, professor of chemistry and director of the laboratory in the University of North Carolina, has an- nounced before the Chemists club here his discovery that thorium, hith- erto unknown as one of the seventy primary clements, is complex in its nature. Dr. Baskerville has resolved thorium into two new clements. He has named one of these caroEnium after the state and the other ber- zelium in honor of the great Swedish chemist who nearly a hundred years ago discovered thorium.

President Roosevelt will act as honorary president of the oiymplc e.ames at St Louis. Of course he wlil' says n writer in sporting journal. There was really no need for Jim Sullivan to announce the acceptance. It was enough to know that the invi- tation had reached the white house. And sportsmen and athletes all over the world will be delighted at the news. It may be taken for granted that Mir Roosevelt would rather be a contestant than an honorary ornament of this great carnival of sport if he were a few years younger and a few pounds lighter. The program is amazingly varied and extensive, yet 1t Is even now to be regretted that the Olympic games do not include "broncho busting" from scratch, chas- ing the mountain tSoE against the watch, and long distance sprinting over high hurdles up the slope of "a specially constructed San Juan Hill The exhibition Of such seductive pas times as these might cause the honor ary president to fidget uneasily on his Olympic throne and to this list of strenuous diversions might be added vaulting ambition. and an obstacle race for the white house. Trophy, trial heats to be run on the indoor track of Convention hall. When the first of the revived Olympic games were held at Athens. in 1898, the King Of Greece was present, and members of the royal family presented the prizes to the winners. At Paris, in 1900. representatives of the French government held official positions. President Roosevelt is. therefore, in line with precedent in accepting the honorary place at the head of the St Louis games.

R. G. Dun & Co. Report Southern
 Business Locking Up.

R. G. Dun & Co. Report Southern
 Business Locking Up.
 NEW YORK, April 9.--R. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review of trade says:
 Commercial conditions have improv- ed somewhat during the past week, all though there Is still much to be desired. Dispatches from the south are most en- gouraging, special reports on that sec Son having been secured from branch offices of R. G. Dun & Co.,, which tesu- fy to increased business and more prompt collections than are found else where. At the east more seasonable weather prevailed, yet spring trade is still below normal. The best news of the week was the settlement of many labor controversies, or at least resump- ton of work pending arbitration. If the local building struggle is over there will be full employment for thousands of wage earners and large demand for materials. New strikes have com menced, although not rendering idle nearly as many hands as have resumed work.
 Wheat receipts of 2,315, ,S96 bushels for the week compare with 2,5456 63O bushels last year, and exports of l, ,49O, ,639' bushels, flour included. are dn- significant when shown in comparison with 3,416,523 bushels last year and 3.849,9T0 two years ago.
 Liabilities of commercial failures thus far reported for April aggregated $1, ,630, ,745, of which $6O5,14 were fin manufacturing, $S06, 792 in trading and $218,792 in other commercial lines. Failures this week numbered 235 In the United States, against 197 last year, and % in Canada compared with 16 year ago.
