BETWEEN SEASON TRADE MORE QUIET Bright Prospects However Con tinue Unimpaired FALL ORDERS UNDER WAY Railway Earnings Are Still High, the Gain Over June Last Year
 Being Fourteen
 Per Cent.
FALL ORDERS UNDER WAY

New York, July 6-Bradstreets tomor- row will say:
 It has been a between-season week In general trade and industry, but more than the usual seasonable business is doing de- spite influences. The taking of inventories, and in the case of industrial plants the making of repairs, is naturally feature. Nevertheless bright prospects continue un- impaired. Fall orders are coming forward in good volume. Crop conditions on the whole are very favorable. Pig iron dis plays more ffrmness and considerable busi- ness has been booked; finished lines could hardly be In a better position, and demand from the railways continues to be most marked. Labor is scarce not only In the crop growing regions but In the industrial sections as well, the scarcity of help cur tailng production of Pennsylvania coke Incidentally a strike of puddlers and fin- ishers in eastern bar iron mills affects the situation, but the disturbances are purely local.
 Railway earnings are still very high the indicated gain in gross receipts for June as compared with the same month in 1905 being no less than IA per cent. Moreover the past fiscal year was the best ever ex- perienced by the railways. Failures are down close to the minimum for the first half of the year, being "A per cent fewer than year ago, while lia- bilites are 5.7 per cent smaller than last year and only r per cent above the small est total for nearly twenty years.
 The situation in textiles presents varying aspects. Good cotton crop prospects have apparently for the time being been dis counted, and the raw material shows lit- tie or no change on the week. In finished goods the situation is irregularly strong at the revisions recently made to meet lower cost of raw cotton.
 Pig iron shows more firmness now that the furry caused by the dissolution of the southern producers agreement has ap- parently passed.
 Business failures for the week ending July number 134 against 146 last week and 127 In the like week of 1905. In Canada failures were g as against 29 year ago.

A good looking face

What is the secret of good looks? Complexion---a clear, smooth,
 youthful complexion with health tints that fairly glow with life. You can have good complexion. Your face, neck, arms and
 hands can be made delicious to look at. Use Hagan's Magnolia Balm and you'll look ten years younger immediately after ap- plying it. It is not a cosmetic, neither is it greasy or sticky. It is liquid as harmless as dis t1lled water. 7sc, at all druggists.

Children Used as Shield

Manila, March 14.-General Wood
returned from Jolo today. He says
women and children were killed in the
recent battle, which he regrets but de-
clares it was unavoidable as the wo-
men were fighting beside the warriors,
the children being used as shields. He
said the natives fought like fanatics,
jumping over the sides of the mountain
into the ranks of the soldiers and roll
ed the men down with them.
Most of the injuries TO the tr oops
we're made by knives and spears. The
wounded natives fought the surgeons
after they were on the operating table.

STANDARD OIL
DEF|Es MISSOURI
HadIey is Notified That he will Get
no More Information Than he
Forces From Officials

Kansas, City, March 14.-The Stand.
ard Oil company. through Alfred d.
Eddy, its western attorney, has in
effect notified Herbert S. Haaley, at
torney geperal of Missouri, who was
in Kanass City todav, that it will give
him no more information in his suit
to oust the Standard OIL an d its
allied companies from the state, than
it is compelled TO make.
Mr.. Hadley said today:
a week ago today when the testi-
mony of II. Clay fier:e was to have
been taken before Commissioner r. A.
Anthony in st. LOUIS Mr.. Eddy. at
torney for the Standard Oil company,
stated to me there would be no furth-
er resistance on the part of witnesses
already subpoenaed in New York in
answering the questions they had
previously refused to answer. l then
suggested to Mr.. Eddy that if he wonld
produce Fl. NJ and ". II. Tilford and
". III. Van Bu.el before Commission
or Frederick Sanborn in New York,
Marcn "a, that I would not. as mat
ter of convenience, file an application
in the Supreme court TO bring them to
Missouri.
Mr.. Eddy promised to give an ens-
wer to this suggestion as soon as he
could consult his clients in New York.
He has informed ime he does not feel
authorized to make this arrangement.
Cons aQuently if service on them is not
secured at the time the taking Of de-
positions is resumadIin New York, I
will apply to the supreme court for
an order to compel tteir appearance
in Missouri
"What about John d. Rockefeller ?"
Mr.. Hadley was asked, "Was there
any discussion pertaining to him.
1.-The question OF subpoenaing John
D. Rockefeller did not enter into the
disc ussing of with Mr.. Eddy. We
have been and are still endeavoring to
secure service on him, but there are
other witnesses whose presence am
more anxious to secure. They know
more about the facts in the case. What
have wanted is persons who could give
testimony, not those whose presence
would lend sensational interest to
the litigation"

To Cut Off Free Seed Graft

Washington, March 14.-Ttose who
were doub btful about the sincerity and
duration of the general reform wave
started in public affairs last summer
may take courage from the fact that
it as reached congress. More than
that, it has. led the onslaught on moth
ing less than that time honored graft,
the free distribution of seeds in the de.
partment of agriculture. The honse
committee on agriculture, by bare
majority vote, struck out the item pro-
viding money for free seeds. 1t is
now up to the house itself to stand by
che action of the committee and kill a
form of official graft chat has gone on
for considerable time at an
annual cost of S240,00O. No one will
weep over the lvss of this appropria-
tion except few seed Jobbers who
have been disposing of the sweepings
of their warehouses, and, perhaps, a
few representatives whose lack of per.
sonality is perhaps made up to thler
constituents by the distribution of
seeds. If one stops to compute the
amount of highly useful articles that
the government could add annually to
it's equipment for $240. 900 some idea
will be had of the loss the people
have sustained through the free seed
ggaft. It's continuance to date is blot
on congress. Now is the time to wipe
the slate clean, aud the house COM
mittee on agriculture has made good
start.
