DUN'S REVIEW.

New York, October 19.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'S weekly review of trade tomorrow
will say:
The advancing season has broadened re-
tail trade in staple lines, notably heavy
weight clothing and footwear, while
wholesale and jobbing departments make
satisfactory returns and there is definite
improvement in the promptness with
which mercantile collections are made.
Current distribution is scarcely more gem
eral than the demand for distant delV-
cry, indicating that confidence in the
future remains mistaken. Industrial OPP
eratons are on an unprecedented scale
with especial pressure at steel mills, car
shops and shipyards. Prices are well
maintained, the general level showing
net gain since the month opened
Many voluntary advances in wages are
noted and it is hoped that the scarcity
of labor will be less disturbing when
farm work is finished.
Railway blockades still delay shipments.
Clearings for October thus far surpass
last years by 70 per cent
Aside from the advance of 81 per ton
in the price of pipe at the close of last
week quotations of IRON and steel remain
steady. but notably firm. The general
level of quotations is now at the highest
point since the beginning of 1908, and
there is much more stability than was
noted four years ago. Increased output of
pig iron furnaces causes no accumulation
and price are readily maintained for the
most remote deliveries Coke commands
higher prices even for remote shipment.
In the textile industries interest centers
around the practcabllity of future adj
vance, or reaction in the price of raw
cotton Thus far the rise has been suf-
ficient to bring about general rise in
prices of cotton goods. while the man.
ufacturer now dictates terms at which
business is to be transacted. Export in
uuiries are at prices much below the
present position which restricts business.
Demand for wooden goods continues TO
broaden. Domestic hides are somewhat
weaker on the whole with only moderate
sales while Latin American hides have
gained further strength and European
markets are firm.
Failures this week number 1856 in the
United States, against 2S3 last year. and Il
in Canada compared with 81 "A year ago.

"One minute, messieurs-do speak

| Dicks eyes take in all of this with
one sweep, and then become magne
tized by the central figure. There
stands Miss Pauline of New York
with small revolver in her hand; her
attitude is really superb-it breathes
defiance Dick likens her to statues

her before as a beautiful woman, he
adores her now as brave one.
When her eyes meet his, the star
tied almost desperate look vanishes
from the face of the girl who dares,
the girl whom New York's upper Four
Hundred have bowed down 10 as their
queen for one whole season.
"Oh, Mr.. Denver you Gave come!

Although so brave in the face of
danger, she trembles when it has gone

She passes to his side instantly
while Dora, in the exuberance of her

seems to be very weak, the reaction
having set in.
"Then l beg his pardon-I will tell
him so. Let us hasten and leave
here!' cries Dora, drawing up her
lovely shoulders in shudder.

Made the Marriage Sure.

An amusing story is told of mar
rage celebrated in the Glasgow (Scot
land) southern police court some time
ago. A man and woman were being
tried on a charge of riotous conduct
in Main street, Glasgow. In the in
dictment they were described as man
and wife, but from the evidence of
fered to the court it was more than
doubtful whether they were actually
married. The presiding bailie, evil

ence of such man at this time.
The end of the passage is reached
and they have seen nothing OF the
Mexican, who, upon discovering that
guard has been stationed beyond
must have darted into some empty
cell.
Colonel Bob is greatly pleased at
sight of the girl he adores; he takes
off his hat and gives a genuine west
ern war whoop that causes silence
to ensue for almost a full minute
among the denizens of Lost Hope Coz
ridor.
At the same time Colonel Bob dis
poses of the keeper whom he has been
guarding, starting him down the pas
sage, and accelerating his speed with
several kicks.
"Dora-safe-my darling!" he cries,
and the girl, without thinking, flies to
his outstretched arms and snuggles
there. After all, what is the need OF a
formal declaration or acceptance
when heart has long since spoken to

eyes are never once taken from his
