remarkable outbreak OF shooting cases.
The magistrate made this remark in
speaking of the growing reign of the re-
rolver, as exempliied by the murders of
the past few days. Cases of murder and
assault in which the revolver figures are
crowding the courts. The present law
imposing fine of $40 for carrying a re-
volver is imperative as a check. For
eigners are abandoning their knives and
razors as weapons of offense III favor of
the more certain gun" Magistrate
Flammer estimates that half of the co.,
600 Italians living in the East One Hun
dred and Fourth street precinct carry
reyolvers, and he is in favor Of allow
ing magistrates to impose a fine of 500
for carrying concealed weapons.

New York Weekly Review, Of Trade

-----------------l saws.
Improvement in trade and industry
continues, favorable reports largely out
numbering adverse influences. The most
important event of the week was the
two-thirds vote by the bituminous coal
miners to accept the proposed reduction
in wages. This will probably prevent
a serious struggle that would paralyze
manufacturing just when il is beginning
to revive.
Complications have arisen in the local
building trades that retad structural
work, but a settlement is anticipated
and the open weather is stimulating out
door work at other points. Retail dis
tribution of Easter goods steadily ex-
pands and dealers stocks are being de
pleted because of conservatism in in
itial purchases. This promises large sup

are still causing complaint. aud the
movement of exhibits TO the st. Louis
exposition provides temporary feature
of Importance. Railway earnings thus
far available for March show de-
crease of only s per cent as compared
with last years figures.
Another week has brought no check to
the progress in the iron and steel indus
try. Improvement does not come sud
denly, nor is there any inclination TO adj
vance prices by bounds, as in the boom
four years ago. This conservatism will
bring beneficial results il continued. All
divisions of the pig iron market are more
active and the level of prices tends grad
ually upward.
