Cotton prices and exports ruled high

per cent below 1906
The particularly bright spot in the
Industrial situation was the stupendous
increase in the value Of agricultural
products, and, while the actual produc-

low that of the previous year, the
values had increased more that $500,

cotton, meats, dairy products, poultry,

OF $7,4OO, 100000.

enforce the rule, and some resigned.

COMMERCIAL
Americas Year of Trade.

Americas Year of Trade.
The annual review Of trade as pub
lished by Dun's agency shows the year
1907 to have been remarkable In many
respects, the commercial activity Of
the first ten months being in marked
contrast to the depression which fol-
lowed the financial disturbance in
October
In iron and steel the production for
the first half Of the year babe fair to
raise the years figures far above all
previous records. but by Dec. the
weekly output had fallen to the lowest
point since November, 1904, not more
than 33 per cent of the entire capacity
being in operation.
In dry goods the volume of business
transacted was without precedent. not
withstanding the heavy falling off of
the last two months. The exports of
this line of goods showed a marked de-
cline from the previous year, the most
nota BILE being in connection with the
Chinese trade.
A great curtailment of tanning OPP
GFdLHOuS, 1tu TIC uSS1CoSS
in the consumption of hides, carried
prices for these latter to the lowest
point reached in a decade. though the
price of leather was not materially af-
fected. The boot and shoe trade seems
to have suffered severe check.
Silver bullion after moderate fuctua
lions closed the year at the lowest quo
tations of the past four years. Not
withstanding the extraordinary de-
mands created by the monetary crisis
Of October, the total imports of gold
were considerably less than in 1906.
In the stock market the general
tendency has been downward, and in
October prices not only dropped to the
lowest level Of the year, but In nearly
every instance to the lowest figures in
many years and in some cases to quo
tations below any previous record.

Bishop Fallows Mind Curist.
That the st. Paul's Reformed Epts-
copal church of Chicago is about to
start upon plan to cure disease
through mental influence was announc-
ed last week by Bishop Samuel Fal-
lows. He calls the proposed cure
"Christian psychology" In a sermon
he said this idea included every cura-
tive agency in the world of nature as,
an aid to the powerful influence of sug-
gestion and auto suggestion for mental
and physical health. It ''unites the
physician and clergyman in the great
work of healing and aims to give the
physician trained men and women to
assist in the ministry to the sick and
suffering" The bishop further eX
pressed the hope that this movement
would ''link all the churches irrespec
tive of creed" and would prove that
there is no necessity for seeking an
tagonistic organizations in order to
gain the boon Of health and happi-
ness" He asserts that Christian psy-
chology will cure anything that is cura-
BILE by Christian Science methods, es-
pecially nervous diseases. This is along
the line Of work carried on by the
Boston Emmanuel church for the past
year.

Ex-Presdents Should Be Paid.
In a notable article in recent issue
Of the Youths Companion Grover
Cleveland, the only living ex-president
of the United States, makes the con,
tention that the nation should grant
to every man who has served in the
Office of chief executive a financial
competence for life. He explains that
he is not moved by personal reasons
as he is financially Independent and
will leave his family well provided
for. His argument is to the effect that
the nation exacts from its ex-presi-
dents dignity and aloofness from the
usual occupations Of life that restrain
them from engaging in money making
pursuits; therefore he thinks provision
should be made for them out of the
public treasury. AS illustrating his
point, he refers to the extremities to
which some ex-presidents have been
reduced, citing particularly the case
of Jefferson, who was brought almost
to dire want in his old age
