The ad vance in raw cotton has stimulated in quiry for cotton goods which have been generally advanced five to ten percent and buyers complain of deliveries Wool has strengthened and the market for foot wear though quiet has shown the effect of present high prices for leather and the highest prices for hides in reflects the demands of a second year in this respect.

In wholesale and jobbing circles an unusually brisk duplicate order busi- ness testifies to the freedom rom ac- cumulated stocks on the shelves or in terior dealers while there is no abate- Structural steel and all forms of rail way equipment are the prominent features of the iron industry. but quiet conditions prevail at coke ovens ana ing of quotations for raw materials threatens the stability of the leading textile markets although consumption rapidly rising prices. Widely varying reports are received regarding the crop situation, prices rising higher than would be the case if manipulation were Iees v,eorous and exports are adversely affected. Several threatened labor con troversies have ben averted by agree ment upon wage scales for another year and building operations are unusually brisk for the season. Railway earn ings in June were Ga per cent larger than last years but foreign commerce a loss of $4,167 in exports and a de- crease of S4SS,75S in imports as com pared with 1904.
 Uncertainty In the markets for cot ton goods has resulted from the rise in raw material and 1t is almost inn possible to negotiate for future delive- ry. Similar conditions prevail in the other leading textile industry except that raw material has fuctuated less of late.
 Increased activity is noted in the hide market, but foreign hides are dull

Sheldon Boy AceidentIy Shot.

Lawrence A. Trudeau, of Sheldon,
aged % years, was accidently shot and
instantly killed March Goth by BENJAMIN
Bashaw, at the home of Byron Wood
worth near East Sheldon, where he was
visiting for few days.
The accident was the outgrowth of a
boyish frolic the lad who did the shoot
ing, who was fifteen years old, being
made to believe by the other young boys
Trudeau and Carl Woodwork, son of
Byron Woodwork, that there were
burglars about the place. His feelings
were so aroused that when Trudeau APP
peared around the corner of the house,
wearing a mask, Bashaw fired o.
calibre rifle without taking any partic-
ular aim. He intended to fire up in the
air but the bullet struck Trudeau, who
was about six rods away over the right
eye, killing him instantly.
Bashaw, who works for Mr.. Wood
worth, is overcome by the death of his
friend.
