BRADSTREETS WEEKLY VERMONT
TRADE REPORT.

Reports to Bradstreet's indicate
that the pronounced sprir g weather
of the past week has developer con-
siderable activity among the farmers,
who are beginning to pillow and to
otherwise push farming operations.
The season has been fairly good for
maple sugar, several good runs of
sap have been obtained and prospects
are good for runs for several more
days. There will probably be a good
average yield, much larger than was
received last year. Labor is we'll
employed as rule but there is dis
position among certain labor unions
to demand certain concessions of
building contractors who do not seem
to favor the demand. The report
comes from Barre that the tool
sharpeners object to the Introduction
of labor saving machine for sharp
ening tools, which machine takes the
place of number of workmen. One
large shed is said to have been
closed and if the demand of the
tool sharpeners is not met, it is
possible that further suspension will
result, but it is hoped that wise coun-
sci will prevail and that further
trouble will be averted. Manu-
facturers are fairly busy but demand
is still quiet. Mills that consume
cotton are much interrupted because
of an unfavorable market. Retail
trade is fair; customers from country
districts are able to get to the towns
as the roads, while still in only fair
condition, are passable. Collections
are little quiet. -.

unchanged, wholesale trade good,
retail trade fair. 1t is expected that
navigation will open up in about a
week, although the ice is still in the
lake. In Rutland manufacturing
industries are doing we'll but retail
trade and collections a little slow.
The business situation at Barre is
somewhat uncertain, because of
threatened labor trouble. Business
among the granite sheds is generally
quiet. In Montpelier the polishers
and Jumpers demand, it is said, more
pay and shorter hours, the change 10
take effect May let. Conditions in
other lines are normal, retail trade
will soon feel the effects of the new
crop of maple sugar. There is no
particular change among the manu-
facturers at st. Adams, retail trade
and collections fair. The organ fac
tories at Brattleboro are very busy,
but operations are quiet at the two
overall factories, one of which is
prac ically shut down for short time.
Retail trade is somewhat quiet.
Bennington reports the mills little
slow at present and retail trade feels
the depression, collections little
slow. Bellows Falls reports business
very good at the paper mills and
nearly all other industries are running
full time. Collections good; retail
trade is well maintained as a large
weeB ly pay roll is distributed. The
large lumber company at Wilmington
has secured a cut of logs of some
100000 feet; the past season has
been very successful in the woods
and the logs are practically ready for
the drive. Readsboro reports bust
ness good, the chair factory is very
busy and prospects are good for the
coming season. 1t is probable that a
large water power will be developed
here soon. In st. Johnsbury manu-
facturers are doing fairly well,
althou gh they do not seem to be
greatly rushed; retail trade and
collections fair.

nesses were examined, their testimony
indicating self defence, and upon
conclusion there being no evidence
to implicate Edson Bronson he was
discharged. The other brother, Reu-
ben, was held for the grand jury, and
committed to the Jail at Guildhall.
According to the contention of the
state, foreshadowed in the hearing,
Lyons was killed while defenceless by
one or both of the Bronsons. The
defence proposes to show that the
Bronsops were the parties attacked,
that they fired only one shot, that
admittedly fatal one, in response to
a fusilade of bullets fired by the man
now dead.

THE GUARANTEED CATARRH CURE
I'll. G. Pierce Will Return Money
If HyOmei Fails. No Stomach
Dosing.

Hyomei has made so many cures of
the most chronic and deep seated
cases of catarrh, that H. @. Pierce
considers it specific in this disease.
He extends an invitation to all
catarrh sufferers to call at his store
and purchase Hyomei outfit with
the distinct understanding that it will
be absolutely free unless it effects a
cure.
The chief reason for the unusual
success of Hyomei in the treatment of
catarrhal troubles and other diseases
of the air passages, is the fact that it
cures by a new principle, impreg-
mating the air you breathe with heal
ing and germ-kllling balsams. On
this account it reaches the seat of the
disease in way impossible to pills.
drugs or other stomach dosing.
Many of II. O. Pierce's customers
who have suffered with catarrh since
childhood have been cured completely
by this scientific remedy.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs
81, and consists of an inhaler that
can be carried in the purse or pocket.
a medicine dropper and a bottle of
Hyomei. Extra bottles can be OBJ
tanned for 5Oc., making it a most
economical remedy for the cure of
catarrh.
Do not suffer longer with catarrhal
disorders, but get Hyomei outfit
from Fl. @. Pierce, under his guar
antee to return the money if it fails.
You run no risk whatever. fit cures
the treatment is not expensive, while
if it fails, FL. @. Pierce will refund
your money and it costs you abso-
'lutely nothing.

GOOD. SPIRITS.

Good spirits don't all come from Kentucky.
Their main source is the liver-and all the

have good spirits and bad liver at the same

you would feel buoyant, happy and hopeful,
bright of eye, light of step, vigorous and
successful in your pursuits. You can put
your liver in fine condition by using DR..

Arrested.
Rochela Favatore, an Italian, was
in Montpelier city court
last week on the charge of attempt
ing to kill conductor Lewis of the
Montpelier and Barre electric railroad.
He was bound over to county court
in the sum of 800. 1t appears that
the Italian was former employee of
the road but had been discharged.
He was put eff the car because he
was intoxicated. He fired at the car,
the bullet hitting the frame of the
door. There were about eight pas
sengers on board and they got down
on the floor to escape harm. The
Italian4ater boarded another car and
was arrested.
Shooting ARRAY at Bloomfield.
About ten O'Clock Thursday night,
March 81, Charles Lyons was shot
and killed at Bloomfield. 1t is said
the shooting is the result of teud
that has existed for long time. The
nnen concerned in the ARRAY had been
at work in the woods all winter, and
came out that day. The story told
by Frank Lyons, brother of the
murdered man, is to the effect that
ne and his brother were in their hon g
when their attention was attracted by
the noise of what appeared to be a
quarrel in the road. They went out
side Immediately and two men, whom
thew declared to be the Bronson
brothers, opened fire upon them, one
with a rife, the other with a shotgun.
After several shots had been fired:
Charles Lyons fell MORALLY wounded
and quickly died. On the other hand
the Bronson boys say they were in
their own house when they were dis
turbed by the shooting of man in
the road. They went to the door and
Charles Lyons challenged them to
come out and fight. Then he opened
FIRE with revolver and one of the
bullets passed close by Edison Bron-
SONS head. Then Reuben Bronson
stepped back into, the house, took
f3own bis shotgun and fired one
charge into the 6arkness. The
brothers claim they did not know any
one had been hit by their fire. Soon
after the shooting, the two brothers,
Reuben and Edison Bronson, were
arrested, charged with the crime. A
hearing was held before Justice J. Fl
Beattie Friday and Saturday. Friday
when charged with the crime the
respondents acting on the advice o.
their counsel refused to plead, and &
plea of not guilty was entered. Upor
xesuming the case Saturday morning
the brother of the man killed gave
his evidence, asserting that Reuben
raised and levelled his gun and free
directly at Charles, and "my brother
fell dead across my feet" said the
witness. This concluded the case fol

The MONITOR extends thanks to
Senator Proctor for copy of the
records of conventions in the New
Hampshire Grants for the indepen-
dence of Vermont, 1776-1777. These
records are reproduced in facsimile
from manuscripts in the library of con-
gress, written and attested by Jonas
Fay, clerk of the conventions, with
other important documents and
explanatory statement. These rec
ords, which had been lost, were found
recently in the congressional library
at Washington. Through the efforts
of Senator Proctor, to whom much
credit is due, they have now been
brought before the public. Some
means should be found by which the
state can secure possession of these
papers.

the party held. The nature of the l
evidence against him is being kept |
carefully secret, but it is said to be
sufficient to warrant holding him.
Miss Page was stabbed to death in her
chamber at her own home at about
noon March 31st. She left note
saying that messenger had brought
her word that her brother had been
injured and that she was leaving fora
Boston hospital to see him. After
writing this, she went to her room to
change her apparel and there met
her death. No one was seen about
the premises at the time. 1t is ad
mitted by Tucker that he was in the
vicinity at the hour the deed was
committed, but he claims he did not
approach the house. He was
acquainted with Miss Pages brother.
War Situation.
Reports came Thursday of terri
BILE disaster suffered by the Russians.
The flagship of their Port Arthur
squadron, the 1900 ton battleship
Petropavolovsk, struck mine in the
outer harbor of Port Arthur which
exploded, sinking the vessel imme-
diately. Of the 700 men aboard only
four officers and thirty five seamen
were saved. Among the lost was
Vice Admiral Makaroff, commander
of the Russian naval forces in the
Far East. The Grand Duke Cyril,
cousin of the Gear, was miraculously
saved, though wounded. Reports
differ as to how the accident occurred,
but the most reliable are that the
Russian feet was forming on it's way
out to give battle to the Japanese
feet that was approaching when the
Petropavolovsk suddenly keeled over,
turned turtle and sank before the
crew could leave her. 1t is said she
ran against m inc, butt is possible
Japanese submarine torpedo boat
did the work. Rear Admiral Prince
Ouktomsky wired from Port Arthur
Thursday that the Bezstrashui, one
of the Russian torpedo boat DESTROY
ers sent out during the night to
reconuoiter, became separated from
the rest of the feet, owing to the
bad weather, was surrounded by Jap
anese torpedo boat destroyers and
was sunk in the fight. Five men
were saved. The Japanese army,
said to be $4,000 strong, has reached
the southt bank of the Yalu river,
having brushed away the scattered
Russian detachments in Korea. The
Japanese have occupied Yongampo
near the mouth of the Yalu and are
also reported to be in possession of
some of the islands in the rivers
estuary. From the failure of the
Russians to seriously oppose their
, enemy's advance, it is deduced that
their plan of campaign will be to lure
the Japanese far into Manchuria,
where, at a point remote from the
Japanese base and from the support
, of their navy, the Russians will fall
, upon them in overwhelming numbers
and annihilate them. Or, failing in
this, the Russians will retire and
avoid a decisive land fight until the
Russian fleets united are able to
wrest the control of the sea from the
Japanese, when they will have the
invaders at their mercy. Rumors Of
the mobilization of a great Russian
army in Manchuria continue, some
, estims tes placing the Russian strength
to be assembled in the late summer
as high as 900 men, although it is
not stated how such an immense
army can be adequately supplied over
single line of railroad.

Judge Tyler rendered decision in
the Rutland county court last week
that unless a deer's horns were long
enough so the hunter could see them
before shooting it would be illegal to
kill the deer in the open season. In
a ecordance with the ruling Rutland
county hunter was found guilty and
fined for having killed a buck on
which the horns could not be seen.
