THE COLO WEATHER
DELAYS SPRING TRADE

| NEW YORK, April 19-R. G. Dun
row will say:
Spring trade develops slowly because
of unreasonable wea ther Cold wealth
er has prevailed over an unusually
large area, retardinG agricultural pro-
gress as well as trade In lightweight
wearing apparel and other spring
goods; but similar bad starts IN other
years have sometimes brought most
favorable results. The only actual
/ damage of any account is reported in
some winter wheat fields OF the South
| west. and on most of this area some
other crop has been planted. Whole
sale business for later seasons Is on
a liberal scale. Building operations
are active, and leading manufacturing
plants are busy
Little complaint is heard regarding
freight blockade. ana with the resump-
ton OF lake navigation traffic condi-
lions Will soon be entirely steady.
Quiet conditions In the pig iron mar
ket were to be expected after the large
sales OF last week, and productions
have been sold so far ahead that quo
tatIons arc fully maintained.
No change has appeared in the pri-
mary markets for textile fabrics, prices
ruling firm and mills arc well occu-
pied. Resales OF cottons are recorded.
but without adverse effect. buyers
being ready to take all offerings Mt
second hands. While the coarse yarn
section is the least active. there is no
accumulation OF goods and there Ia
less indication Of speculation. Actunl
alterations have occurred In prices OF
cotton goods, but the tendency Is still
upwards. premiums being frequently
paid in order to secure satisfactory
deliveries. A supporting feature Is the
curtailment OF production. which Is
unavoidable because of tho scarcity OF
labor. Export demand Is still slow.
Improvement Is noted In woolcns re.
spoctinR duplicate orders for mems,
and manufacturers OF wool goods are
encourag ed by n trend in favor OF thell
products.

schedules and train service for the James
town Exposition season We're fully con-
sidered. Material changes were made in
the schedules OF trains coming from the

for running many extra Pullmans.
The only change from Richmond is that
train No. 43, which now leaves here at
2:20 p. NJ, will start out at 1880 p. Nj.
Tho change is made SO as to have this
train make through connection direct to
Atlanta and Birmingham. 1t will take
effect April 2Sth.
On May 9Th the Southern Railway Will
place in service an additional train In
each direction between Kcysville, Jeffress
and Buffalo Junction. The Solltherhs

Report of Committee.
Tho r-eport nf tho corn,uittn. 10 nc

The report of the committee Is as 10
ows:
we. the committee. appointed by
tho First Baptist Church, to invcs-
tigate the published charges made
against the character of Messrs
Dinitz and Marks. two Jews. who
have recently become members of
the said church. after carefully con-
sidering the evidence presented by
the above parties and comforting
Orthodox Jews who were present
at the investigation, respectfully
submit the following report:
First. In our Judgment. the re-
ports In the paper to the effect that
the Orthodox Jews contemplated
of prosecuting Mr.. Dinitz We're un-
fortunate. and representatives of
the Hebrew congregation deny any
such meeting being held or con-
templated. The said representa-
tives assure us that they dcprecate
these reports. and Furthermore
state That they would not inten-
Second We are convinced upon
the testimony OF the Orthodox
Jews, the testimony Of Mcssrs.
Dinitz and Marks and our own
association with Mr.. Dinitz, that
he is Russian Jew and not gem
tile as reported.
Third. The First Baptist Church
has not now, nor has 1t ever had
any connection with Mr.. Stern, and
does not assume any responsibility
whatever for him. 1t was proven
at the Investigation that he at
tempted to disturb the friendly re-
lations existing between the Chris
tans and Jews. The representa-
tives OF tho Orthodox Jews, present
ut the said investigation, stated
that they do not assume any re-
sponslbllity whatever for Mr.. Stern.
or his action. and had no connec-
ton whatever with him.
Fourth Mr.. Dinitz was received
into the First Baptist Church upon
a voluntary confession OF Chris
,tianity, and we will presume that
lo is conscientious until by his
future conduct he proves other
wise. Mr.. Marks became a member
in the same way, and intelligent
and liberal Jews tell MS that he
is worthy Of confidence.
Fifth. The church Is DESTROYS Of
giving all needed sympathy and
{ protection to worthy members. but
lit tho same tlme Is unwilling TO
harbor impOsters.
Sixth. i've cherish the klndest
feelings toward the Hebrew race
and especially toward the worthy
members of that race In tho city OF
Rlchmond. ,, ,>,
For the Committee,
Tho above report is heartily ap-
- GEO. w, N1'DANIEL.. Pastor.
In so far as tho above report
refers to the Orthodox Jews, and
tho recently published statements.
we hereby indorse and approve tha
same. >,,,oN

TOBACCO RECEIPTS
GROWING SMALLER

The weeks business on the loose
leaf-tobaco market closed yesterday
with rather small breaks, the total
sales amounting to not more than 49,
600 pounds of the loose week. The Of
ferngs were composed entirely of low
grades and common goods did not very
much interest the manufacturers. All
classes of sun-cured stock are in ac-
tive demand and sound goods Of this
class, be they wrappers. filters, or even
common grades, will bring good money
on the market. The warehousemen do
not look for heavy breaks next week.
In fact, they will be surprised IL they
are any larger than they We're this
week.

President Stevens Replies tc
Resolution Adopted by City

President George w. Stevens, OF the
chesapeake and Ohio Railroad, has
written to City Clerk Ben. II. August
in. response to his notification Of the
adoption by the Council OF n Joint reso-
tuition asking the railway to reduce
Its rates to the Jamestown EXposit on.
After the resolution was introduced, tho
railroad company determined to ope-
rate coach excursions at $l.50 round
trip, or much lower than tho regular
made. there was little expectation of
further reduction In response to tho
city's appeal. Hero is the letter sent
by President Stevens, conveying the de-
termination OF tho railway company:
