BRADsTREET's REVIEW OF TRADE
enerA Tendency IL I'm Direction of
Moderate Improvement.

NEW YORK. Aug. L-Bradstreet's says:
Trade, crop and Industrial reports show
little change from last week, but general
tendencies and certainly sentiments are In
the direction of moderate Improvement.
Preparations for the opening Of fall job
bling trade in the first week of August
are making at all cities, buyers are gath
ering In large numbers and a full repre-
sentation with Increased buying is looked
for. At a few cities July trade has not
been up to expectations, but at New York,
where q moderate Increase In activity Is
noted, there has been a disposition to
await forthcoming large auction sales OF
cotton and wooden goods as offering a
line on future demand. Best reports Of
fall trade come from the central west,
northwest and the south. Everywhere,
however, the testimony Is that buying is
of a conservative character. In industry
there are evidences OF expansion in some
lines and of contraction In others. Fac
tories generally ure running simply ION

of his life. Where he has the friend

munity without regard to politics, and
they look upon him as their loyal
friend. Such means as he has he
has engaged in farming and enter
prises within the state.
In 1898 he was sent to the state
legislature where he did splendid
work for the farmers, and was the
first to recommend federal inspec-
ton of grain to secure justice for the
Dakota farmer in the grades, prices
and dockage of his wheat, fax and
oats. At that time he introduced the
first bill for the insurance of bank
deposits, but was called crank. Now
everybody except the big Wall Street
bankers favor exactly the same
scheme. At that time he with other
republicans voted with the democrats
and passed a bill giving the railroad
commissioners power to establish fair
freight and passenger rates. His
whole work in that legislature show
ed that he was governed first by
desire to serve the farmers and
business men of the state. His rec
ord in the legislature was considered
SO good that his friends made him
a candidate for the U. S. Senate in
1899. His votes against the railroads
in the previous sessions, however.
caused his defeat, the railroads
massing their united efforts against
him.
Because of his unjust defeat with
the Senate, he was nominated for

Conditions

Police Commissioners Woodhill. Full
Ter and Lewis inspected the city prison
last night after everybody had been
locked up for the night and were given
an actual picture of the conditions.
Although the cells and tanks were
not crowded as much as they have been
at various times within the past few
months, there was still surplus or
humanity for the accommodations pro-
vlded, and the picture of the creatures
packed like sardines in the pens ana
tanks was not a pleasant one.
The upper tank, which is the home OF
chain gang and contains space Tor
about forty-five men. contained only
ia prisoners last night and as a con-
sequence the commissioners did not
see it at its worst
The sight was sufficiently impressive,
however, for them to determine that
nothing would be left undone to fur
ther the plan for workhouse or stock
ade where the sentenced prisoners
could be confined with some degree of
comfort.
