CHECK BUSINESS REVIVAL
DEEP SNOW AND Low TEMPERA.
TURE ARE HARMFUL.
Ample Evidence, However, That Con-
fdence in the Future Re-
mains Unshaken.

New York, Feb. 18.-R. G. Dun & Co. 8
Weekly Review of Trade says: Wealth
er conditions still dominate the trade
situation. Low temperature and deep
snow have interfered with traffic and
checked the revival of business that was
well under way in most sections Of the
country. Retail distribution ia not
maintained, and the deleterious effects
are visible in all outdoor work, while
the interruption to movement of freight
has affected manufacturing to some ex-
tent. Prices Of staple commodities at
the exchanges are advanced by the re.
stricted receipts at primary markets.
There is a partial Offset in the largely
increased demand for. heavyweight
wearing apparel and other winter
goods, which promises to reduce sup
plies in all positions at the end Of the
season. Meanwhile there is evidence
that confidence in the future remains UNI
shaken, preparations for spring and
summer trade continuing unabated, ex-
cept where fuel or other supplies are
temporarily blockaded in transit. Job.
bling trade in dry goods is on liberal
scale. Railway earnings thus far report
ed for February were 10 per cent. small
er than a year ago, probably another re-
suit OF bad weather. Foreign commerce
at this port for the last week made q re-
markable record for imports, exceeding
inyalue those of the corresponding week
last year by s4,37e,517. Exports de-
creased $780,, 1888. Dispatches from lead
ing iron and steel centers indicate no
check to progress, except the temporary
interruption to output and delivery
caused by storms and continued cold
weather.
Failures this week numbered 258 in
the United States, against 2S7 last year,
and 80 in Canada, compared with 20 q
year ago."
Bradstreet's says: Gold, stormy
weather, the most severe and widely dis
tributed in some respects of the winter,
has had depressing effect on the trade
at wholesale and retail, and has dis
organized railroad transportation in
some sections, and thereby interfered
with various lines of industry, such as
coal mining, coke and iron manufactur-
ing and shipping, heretofore active. Rel
atively the worst effects on opening
spring trade are noted in the northwest
and west, but the southwest and south
have suffered severely, and the east and
northeast have felt the effect in only q
slishter degree. The result is curtail-
ment Of the activities Of statesmen over q
wide area, which, taken in conjunction
with the occurrence of q holiday In many
states, has reduced the weeks trade to
very small proportions"

ANOTHER JEWISH MASSACRE
IN RUSSIA.
AN OUTRAGE IN MEHlLEFF
Alleged Strike Leaders Are Brutality
Beaten, Kicked and Stabbed
Women Among the
Victims.

st. Petersburg, via Eidtkuhnen, Feb.
18.-Another Slaughter of the inno-
cents" furnishing the world with an
other Kishineff, has been perpetrated
by the Russian police. This time the
outrage occurred in Mohileff, in the
government Of Minsk. Among the VIC
Tins, mostly Jews, were several young
women. who were brutally attacked,
while the men were kicked, stabbed and
beaten until some fell dead and others
sank to the ground cripples for life. The
massacre took place on Wednesday.
# appears that large number Of ar
rests were made in connection with
some Manor strikes which have recent
ly occurred in Mohileff. Wednesday Or
ders were given to arrest the leaders;
and as many Of the strikers themselves
as could be gathered in without excit-
ing too much notice.
To this end, the Jewish settlements
where most of the workers live, were
invaded, and 2 number of men and
women dragged to the police station.
There was no evidence that these per-
sons were instrumental in calling the
strike.
The prisoners were taken before the
lieutenant Of police, who, looking over
the list of names, and noting that most
of them were Jews. turned the strikers
over to the policemen.
Immediately the officials pounced
upon the unarmed workers and thrashed
them until they groveled Oh the floor.
Then they kicked them down the stairs.
where second party of policemen took
up the task where their comrades had
left it, and rained blows upon the Backs
Of their victims with the fiat of their
swords.
By this time most of the workmeu
were almost unconscious, but the tor
ture had not yet been completed. They
were pushed into the courtyard, whera
party of soldiers who were guarding
the prison annex fell upon them, gouged
their eyes out, broke their limbs with
blows from their rifle barrels, and then
kicked the injured all over the yard.
Several Of the men died in the yard.
Others were kept there. manned and
bleeding, until the superior officers real
lied that their removal had become an
urgent necessity. They were trans
ferred to the prison hospital.
