More Settled Weather Has Brough Improvement and 0utleok fs Con- sidered Fav0rable-Commer-
 cla1 Failures.

New York. March 5.-R. c. Dunn 6 Company's weekly review of trade to- morrow will say:
 conflicting but on the other hand im- provement has followed more settled weather and the outlook Is considered favorable. even in sections where cur rent business is irregular. Mercantile collections are not as prompt at the commerical failures in February were much smaller than year ago. Traf- hc blockades have been lifted, restor- ing a normal distribution of merchan- disc and railroad earnings in February were only 6.1 per cent smaller than last year despite the severe weather at the start Little idle machinery is noticed in the iron and steel industry, textile mills are increasingly active and New England shops are shipping more freely than a year ago Minor manufacturing plants are also pre- pairing for larger sales, indicating that confidence remains unshaken. Agric- cash prices of all farm products main taining profitable positions, but the speculative markets are cratic. For eigp commerce at this port for the last week shows gain of s1.116,S1s in value of merchandise imported while with the same week last year.
 Although some fractional declines have occurred in hides, the market is we'll maintained considering the fact that the quality is very poor at this season. Commercial failures this week in the United States are 746 against Ing week last year Failures in Canada number 35 against 20 last week and 27 last year.

 tent and desirable loafing place for the young men and especially the strang-

 educational. social. physical and reiig- | ious lines. Hence It's efficiency de- pends not upon it's location in the bus mess district. but upon the equipment
 of the building and the privileges to
 be offered the members. The work of the Association, which counts the most Is that which gives something of real | value to the young man, and for that some thing he will come to the build | ing, provided only that 1t is not inac-

 stores used to bring. For this purpose. the lot selected for the Montgomery | building is ideal.
 The amount of money to be spent for the new building and site Is s35.000. | and if any lot in the business district had been selected, very little of ...Is amount would have remained for the cost of the structure itself. Now 0 handsome building will be erected on
 this beautiful site which. will contain

The club was pointed to walt upon, Colonel Johns and demand that he make retraetton and apology to the club at its next meeting. Should he fail to do so. it Is thought the committee will reeom- mend hIs expulsion.
 Jackson and Johns are both large mine operators and the incident has created a sensation. The difference between the Commercial Club and Col onel Johns arose from the fact that Johns wanted to dedicate the Vulcan statue to Debardeiaben alone. while the club wanted 1t dedicated to all the iron pioneers of the district. When this latter view was made known Johns withdrew his three thousand dollar of- fer. A sharp newspaper controyersy and today's incident was the culrnina- ton.

Debardlaben, one of the iron pioneers of the district, was indirectly declined, arose in an excited manner and denounced Presi- dent F. M. Jackson as an internal liar. Col Johns said that he had been informed that at the last meeting of the club Jackson had said in discussing Johns ofter. that he. Johns had never given any thing to charity. That statement" cried out Col. Johns lis an internal lie."
