Weekly Review Of Trade and Latest
Market Reports.

r.. G. Dun g. Co.'s Weekly Review
OF Trade says:
Spring trade is making a most
satisfactory comparison with the vol
ume at this time last year, except
in a few sections where the weather
Is still unfavorable, and mercantile
collections improve steadily, despite
the high money market Leading
industries have orders covering pro-
duction well in to the future, es-
pecially cotton factories and steel
mills, while the output of pig iron
when the month opened was close to
the largest on record. High prices
In the footwear industry have check
ed placing contracts for fall shoes
at New England factories, some de-
cline in prices of hides and leather
encouraging buyers to delay order
ing the finished product, but most
mills are still busy on spring goods.
Prices are well maintained in all
sections of the iron and steel in
dustry, premiums being frequently
offered for prompt delivery, but or
ders are seldom accepted on these
terms, because of the oversold con-
dition of mills and furnaces. Pig
iron is notably active at Birming-
ham, large contracts having been
placed this month covering deliveries
up to the last quarter. There is a
nominal difference of about $4 per
ton between spot and third-quarter
business, but scarcely any sales are
made at the higher figure. because
little iron is available for prompt
shipment.

InIlinn Methods.

The great medicine man of the
Creek Indians was asked by a United
States commission (of eminent physi-
cians): Can you cure cancer? We
have a patient who has been dying
for seventeen years, and we are un-
able to do anything for him." The
aged redman called for a hot iron
and with 1t burned a big hole in the
leg of the man where the cancer
was gnawing. The physicians were
astounded. He explained briefly:

Old Cannon Can't BE Broken.

A good story is being told at the
Mare Island Navy Yard concerning
a San Francisco contractor, who
bought all the old obsolete cannon
which were sold at the local yard
some time ago. The cannon were
all of the smooth bore kind, and in
order that they might be easily
handled for shipment to the city all
sorts of schemes were tried in an
endeavor to break them with dyna-
mite and blasting powder, but they
were unsuccessful.
An electric drill machine was even
set up at the yard and the cannon
were drilled full of holes, in order
to weaken them for breaking open
with wedges, but this was also unsuc-
cessful. The cannon were then taken
away and the last heard of them they
were corralled in the hills near Point
Richmond, where an effort was being
made to break them open with dyna-
mite again.
The cannon which proved to be
so strong were among the armament
of the war craft which sailed the seas
in 1S12.-San Francisco Chronicle.
