"No man has ever said his prayers
until he has ventured on Lake Baikal,"
is a common saying of the peasants
on the shore of the treacherous body
of water that cuts the great Siberian
railway in two and is now blocking
Russian military traffic.
Some day the railway will be run
around the lower end of the lake, but
as yet trains are ferried across. The
railway company had built in England
a huge steamer, an "ice-breaker," So
called, that was shipped in sections,
but some of the sections were lost,
strayed or stolen, and the duplicates
sent later never gave perfect service.
Now. at the moment of sore need,
with the lake frozen deep and the
traffic demands at the highest possible
point, the "ice-breaker" fails to break
the ice and is laid up useless.
Arrangements are being made to

There is general Improvement. sum-

this week. Although the movements,
as for a time. are along conservative
lines, the undertone is rather more OPP
tlmistic than at any previous time,
this season. a striking absence of po-
htical agitation as affecting trade is
noted and the feeling generally is that
the year will close better than it be-
gan. Notable features are the i'm
PROV ement in jobbng trade al nearly
all Western points in dry goods. shoes,
groceries, millinery. hardware, paints
and drugs. Eastern trade shows Il
fairly good tone in the industrial out
look and the reports of better trade
coming from the West and South.
Warm weather has helped corn to

Monday. This easing of prices has on
the whole, beneficial effect on man
ufacturing branches, heretofore suf-
fering from shortened supplies at
home and abroad, but strikes and short
time have not entirely disappeared.
conservatism in buying of cotton
goods is still notable feature, but the
disposition to regard about 10 cents as
a basis for large dealings is an en-
couraging feature. Wool is strong on
the firm statistical position, higher
prices III London and better prices for
manufactured goods.
Among the industries the features
are the better buying of pig iron and
firmer prices for the furnace product.
Eastern manufacturers of shoes re-
port good steady orders and larger
shipments than of late, but Eastern
shipments are s per cent, below last
