WEEKLY SUMMARY OF CONDITIONS
 IN TRADE. r-.
Moderate Improvement in CORsEsiereial Channels, Seas0nable Weather Having to Some ExteM4&
 Stimulated Sales.

New York, June 1.--R. c. Dun's re- viev of trade tomorrow will say.
 Moderate improvement is noted Tn commercial conditions, although pro, there is no evidence of speculative ex- cecse5. Seasonab1e weather has stim- ulated retail sales of light weight wear ing apparel and jobbers report more ders for fall and winter goods Mer- cs ntilc payments are also more prompt, the brighter outlook having salutary effect or all commercial operations Although little new business Is noted in pig Iron, the steel mills are busy and confidence is expressed in developments next month. Textile manufacturing IS in better condition than at any recent date, high prices for raw material ex- erting no retarding influence as yet and most If the likeness in the leading ln- dustries is attributable to seasonaple overhauling of machinery and taking of inventories. Railway earnings thus far available for June average S;7 per cent. higher than last years and TOT ssH sP%s sa6s % this o fSf the m @ ports and $2,636,S96 in imports Ill every department of business the past week makes q strikingly favorable week of 1904, when prices were tend ing downward and there was much complaint of the early summer duiI- ness, yet there Is no indication. at the present time of the unreasonable en- thusiasm that threatens stability through reckless purchases in excess of wholesale cOnsumptive requirements IrreRulartty continues in the hide mar ket. Many divisions are nominal and foreign dry hides have declined am other fraction, making loss Of full cent. from the recent top point. Better reports are received regarding the leather situation, particularly hemlock sole. Conditions in the footwear iE . dustrv gre without material alteration.
 Failures this week numbered 22S In the United States against 257 last year and 25 in Canada compared with 16 Tn a year ago.

\ Miner Shot.

Will Maxwell a well-known union miner. was shot twice and instantly killed by Lon Taylor, city marshal of Adamsville, in W. A. Bagleys saloon last night
 There was only one eyewitness to the killing and Coroner Paris, after a full investigation of the affair, ordered the release of Taylor from the county jail, where he had been incarcerated this morning pending an investigation of the fatal encounter. Coroner Paris stated that the evidence secured by him showed beyond all question of req sonable doubt that Taylor had acted in self-defense, and was in no way to blame for the death of Maxwell, from a legal standpoint.
 The party who saw the two shots fired Is NJ J. Linn, bartender at the sa- loon where the difficulty occurred. Linn swore before Justice J. H. Benson, who took his deposition last night, that Mar shal Taylor was sitting in the saloon talking to Bob Wells. when Maxwell came in. Maxwell invited Taylor to take a drink and the officer in a polite manner thanked him but declined to accept the courtesy. This seemed to anger the miner, and he spoke harshly to Taylor and said: "You are liar. You don't want to drink with me"
 Linn further swore that Taylor did not reply to the statement, but arose from his seat and walked out of the place. After taking his drink Maxwell also left the saloon. Taylor returned in short time, when he had ascer- tained that Maxwell had left the place. and called for drink of water.
 Maxwell entered the saloon again and began abusing Taylor and hnally threatening to kill him. began to ad- vance upon him. whereupOn Taylor drew his pistol and shot him deae

HiEhway,nan Sentenced.

| htEhWoytnun Sentenceu.
 In the criminal court today the jury irf the case of J. F. Latham and John Blackstock returned a verdict finding Latham guilty of highway robbery and fixing punishment at life imprison- nlent. | .aS& s Blackstock. who was charged with the same offense, came out with mis- trial.
 Latham and Jim BIackstock were convicted last week in another highway robbery case, that of holding up F.. l. Simon on Highland Avenue and Latham was given thirty-hve years and Black stock ten years in the penitentiary. Jim Blackstock and John Blackstock are brothers.
 The case considered by the jury which reported this morning was that wherein Latham and John Blackstock were charged with holding up and 'compelling B. M. Brazeal to turn over his valuables. The case was given to the jury Wednesday afternoon and the body was considering the points at issue from that time until this morn ing at IL o'clock when the verdict men, tfoned was returned
 It was ascertained this morning from a most reliable source that Latham was extremely lucky to escape with life sentence. Up to a few minutes before tue Jury dHHOuHCtu ltStIl IV ACPcA ef the count stood eleven for assessing the death penalty against the young highwayman and one for the lighter punishment of lie Imprisonment. The first ballot and every ballot until the last showed such a result and when the eleven were won over by the lone man, the verdict was returned. There never was chance for an agreement so far as John Blacksteck was concerned.
 AR aa1 E~ stock showed a sisterly love for their erring brothers and spent all yesterday and part of the evening in the court room awaiting the result of the delib- erations of the twelve men selected to decide the fates of their brothers. They were present in the court room this morning when the dozen men slowly filed in. Miss Blackstock was praying and Miss Latham was calm, but A look of keen interest and anxiety was shown on her face.
 The indictment with the verdict written on it was handed to Deputy Criminal Clerk James Hawkins, and he in turn handed it to Deputy Collins Mir Collins slowly read the words which sealed Latham's fate. The pris-
 oner did not move muscle only to
 hang down his head.
 | When Miss Latham, the sister of the convicted man, who has remained true
 and steadfast to her wayward brother heard the words read by Deputy Clerk Collins she fell in a dead faint to the l floor, but was quickly revived and Jeff | the court room and walked to the jai with her brother and the officers who escorted him back. Tears were stream | ing down her cheeks and the little wo. man more than ever showed the eff
