DUN & CO.'S REVILW
A WEEKLY SUMMARY OF CONDI-
 TIONS IN TRADE,
Full Spring Activity Not Yet in Ap- pearance at Many Points, but All Departments Show Improve
 maNmk

New York. March 17.--R. c. Dun and Company's weekly review of trade to- morrow will say:
 High temperature Is still needed to bring out full spring activity at many points but improvement is discerned in almost all departments. Mercantile payments are also more prompt, which adds materially to the feeling of conn., been falling behind in comparison with last year., were S:1 per cent larger for the 1rst week of March and there is freight congestion. A, good boating stage has produced larger coal ship ments at Pittsburg and the movement of coke from Connellsville eelipses all previous records Floods have done some damage on the Pacific coast. Large farm reserves of corn and oats are not accompanied by depressed |neutralized by most profitable quota tions. Foreign commerce returns show unprecedented imports in February and for the last week at this point alone there was an increase of 6,S52,lSS com- pared with the corresponding time in 1904 while exports rose $1,759,318.
 Good progress Is noted in conditions at pig iron furnaces and steel mills. in advance and large sale is rumored. Outdoor work is still backward but the prospective undertakings call for q big business in structural steel and higher prices are anticipated for wire pro- ducts, sheets and plates. Railway sup plies of all kinds are going freely into Consumption. Hides continue firm; packer brands being scarce and help Ing to sustain other varieties which are more abundant Fall contracts come to New England shoe manufac- turers in very small volume. Textile industries are making good progress, prices ruling firm with a slight in- crease in the demand for cotton goods. Little new export business is noted but large shipments continue on old
 orders. In woolen goods prices of new lines show the expected advance over last season.
 Failures this week numbered 250 in the United States against 229 last year and 26 in Canada compared with 21 a year ago.

Chicawo Grain and Provisions.

Chicago. March 17.--Excellent de-
 mand in the Northwest for cash wheat had a buoyant effect here today on delivery was up 5-s. July Is up 7-s9 1c. May corn Is unchanged higher and oats l-S@1-4 and provisions 1-s to
 Trading in the May delivery was the feature of the wheat market today From the start this option showed eon- siderable strength. Initial quotations were up 1-S@3-8c at 1:13 1-4 to 1-2. spy y yas to qnihanfsd a TSs ta M 9T'f Sf ms1 was due largely to continued small re- ceipts in the Northwest and to belief that furry In this delivery is possi- ble. With weather that was ideal for ments from Argentina resulting in a consequent weakening of foreign grain markets, pit traders here were dis posed to sell the July option. News pieteiy offset these bsarish influences and, as trading advanced the market for all deliveries became strong. Shorts were active buyers of May thrSgghout the hsr1 higas5 sn tive. Advices from Minneapolis claimed that the demand for cash wheat was the best for many weeks. Another re- port stated that stocks of wheat in deeresseSS dser S'tS aG 4GsSoo n' bSssels prises reached the highest point of the day just prior to the close, with May sell ing at l:14 3-4 and July at 92 3-4@T-S. The close was almost at the top, final quotations on May being l.14 s-4 and July at 92 5-S.
 Strength of wheat was the main in- fuence in the corn market. Light shipments from Argentina, small local receipts and wet weather, however. were additionak bullish factors. Ab~ sence of export demand tended to on" set these influences and prevented any material gain in values. May opened unchanged to 1-4c lower at AS 7-8 to 49 Is, sold up to 49 3-S and closed at l9 1-i. Receipts. PIT cars. one con. tract.
 Business in oats was extremely quiet. At the opening the market was steady. Later considerable frmness developed in sympathy with other grains. May opened unchanged to a shade higher at Si s-4@7-S. sold to S2 and closed at 31 7-S@32.
 Provisions were firm on a good de- mand from packers. The fact that stocks increased but little during the past week encouraged longs. High prices for live hogs also furnished some incentive to buyers. May cork closed with a gain of 1-2 at 12.S5. Lard and ribs were each up 9 1-2@5c at 7.15 97.17 1-2 and s.s5 5@6.s7 1-2.

BIRMINGHAM IS FIRST
COMPANY ORGANIZED
 FOR BENEFIT OF FARMERS.
Will he Erected anH Maintained Along Lines Suggestea by Meeting o1 Southern Cotton Grow-
 ers' Association.

Birmingham. March 17.-(Special. )- The Warrant Warehouse Company was organized here today with $200,000 cap- ital stock, the object being to furnish facilities for warehousins and financ- ing cotton and other commodities for
 which storage is wished or on which loans are desired.
 The company has acquired property on Avenue A and Thirty-ffth Street. 400 by 4S0 feet. on which a big ware- house will be erected at once. The house will be erected so as to command a rate of insurance not exceeding one- half of per cent.
 Merchants throughout the State. and Birmingham in particular. bankers and others, are interested in this ware- house. the first to be erected under the plans suggested by the Southern Cotton Growers Association. This is part of the movement to regulate the cotton crop. allowing growers to house their cotton and borrow money thereon at the least possible cost.
 It is claimed by the new company that the storage and insurance on the cotton will be IT cents per month per
 bale. which will give opportunity for much cotton to be held when prices do
 not warrant it's sale.
 New York Defeats Locals. The Initial game of the baseball sea- son in Birmingham occurred this after noon between the New York National League team and the Birmingham team.
 The champions won easily by a score
 of 12 to [. Up to the beginning of the ninth the score was q tie, but the heavy hitting visitors got next to the curves
 of Dessau and hit out seven safe hits
 which. together with a steal and e hit
 batsman. allowed seven runs and gave
 the New York men a comfortable lead
 and an easy victory.
 Manager Vaughan and his charge
 gave the big leaders a much harder
 battle than they anticipated. Notwith-
 standing the mid-season. the fielders on
 both teams played gilt-edged ball.
 Moore's work at second for Birmings
 ham was a revelation to the fans. He
 knocked down several apparent safe hits. Special features were running catches by Mertes of New York, and a one-handed catch by shippicasse of Birmingham.
 Manager Vaughan sent in three twirl- CTS to work for the locals. Began did
 not allow New York to reach first base during the time he occupied the box.
 Sealee showed up we'll for the locals.
 Dessau was touched up for ten hits in
 three innings. Matthewson and wiltz
 worked for New York. A crowd of
 about 1000 witnessed the game.

New York Commercial: "A good
many young men underestimate the

Il am well aware that a great deal Is
to be said about how its brains that

a world of mind readers, and people
are mighty likely to judge by mere ap-

other things being equal the neat

he will when he doesn't kno as

This is particularly true of q young

a FELLOW
Why She Felt Lenient Towards tho
Drunknrdv


A great deal depends on the point of
view. A good temperance woman was
led, in a very peculiar way, to revise
her somewhat harsh judgment of the
poor devil who cannot resist his cups
and she is now more charitable. She
writes:
For many years l was a great suf-
got so poor that l found l could not
lie down, but walked the floor whilst
others slept. / got so nervous l could
no rest anywhere.
Specialists told me I must give up
the use of coffee-the main thing that
l always thought gave me some relief.
I consulted our family physician. and
se, being a coffee fiend himself, told
me to pay no attention to their advice.
Coffee had such a charm for me that
IN a restaurant and getting a Whit of
the fragrance l could not resist a cup.
l felt very lenient towards the drunk
ard who could not pass the saloon.
Friends often urged me to try Postum,
but | turned a deaf ear, saying That
may do for people to whom coffee is
harmful, but not for me-cofTee and l
will never part
AT last. however, l bought a pack
age of Postum, although l was sure !
directed. and served it for breakfast.
Well, bitter as l was against it. l must
say that never before had | tasted \
more delicious cup Of coffee! From
that day to this (more than 2 years. /
nave never had q desire for the old COT
fee. My health soon returned; the
asthma disappeared, l began to sleep
well and in a short time l gained 20
pounds in weight.
