IN FIELD AGAIN
JoBBERs NOTE MORE EFFORT TO
REPLE.SlS.. STOCKS
INDUSTRIAL PLANT ACTIVE,
Credits Being More closely Scanned,
Says Dun's--Dry Goods Jobbers do
More Business Than
Expected.

New York, March 7.-R G. Dun &
Co.'S weekly review of trade today
says:
Favorable symptoms are more nu
merous in the commercial outlook
especially in respect to the growth OF
confidence. Jobbers note more pres
sure to replenish depleted stocks OF
staple merchandise, orders in many
cases being for delivery next fall. The
advance season has also contributed
to the better feeling by acceleratine
the distribution of spring goods and
stimulating interest IN the building
trades. Industrial plants are more ac
tive, pig iron production rising to the
best weekly average in three months
Credits are still closely scanned and
mercantile collections are by nc
means satisfactory. yet payments are
more prompt and tie volume of bust
ness is distinctively heavier.
Dry goods jobpers have done more
business than expected, but thus far
il little improvement in the primary
market, and few mills have resumed
activity. Jobbers will not begir
operations as early as usual so that
sales will be closer to actual retail
distribution, and the seasons aggre
gate business will be much less specu
lative than in any recent year. Many
buyers have left the wooden marke
after placing moderate orders, ant
liberal supplementary contracts will
be needed to make up normal aggre
gate.
Production of footwear at New
England factories is still much cur
tailed. idle plants not yet having re
ceived sufficient fall business to war
rant the starung of machinery. Quo
tations are nominally unchanged. Il
few varieties of leather are fairly ac
tive. Upper stock of the better grades
still receives most attention, al
though there are indications of a ten
dency to transfer interest to the
cheaper descriptions"

THE MONEY MISSING.
Man From Rock Island Accused Ut
Taking Pocket Book.

Because John Worley, claiming
Rock Island, ILL.,, as his residence, got
drunk yesterday and was arrested by
Officer Walls at the Iowa Central sta
ton and sum of money amounting
to over eighty-six dollars was found
on his person, he is now lying in the
Mahaska county Jail, charged with
grand larceny, the informant being
William Totten, hotel clerk.
Totten lost one hundred dollars Sat
urday evening in peculiar way. He
went to the toilet in the Iowa Central
depot and hung his vest, which con-
tanned one hundred dollars in ten
crisp ten-dollar bills, on the wall
When he left the room he forgot his
vest and left it hanging on the wall
Worley, so the officers believe, was
around the depot and after Totten had
stepped out of the room he went in
and extricated the money from the
pockets. Totten discovered his loss
the latter part of the evening and he
notified the police of his loss.
A call was received by Night Officer
Walls about eight O'Clock to come tc
the Iowa Central depot and get an in
toxicated fellow. When he wa:
searched eighty-five dollars and some
odd cents were found on his person
This looked suspicious on account Of
the fact that when the fellow came tC
the city he did not have cent to gel
room at the Brooke hotel, so Mr.
Totten was called He identified the
fellow as one he saw in the smoking
room at the depot the time he went
through into the toilet. He filed
charges against Morley of grand lar
ceny.
When Worley was arraigned before
Squire Bacon this morning upon the
|intoxication charge, he pleaded not
guilty. He was then arraigned for
larceny He also pleaded not guilty
to this charge. He stated he got the
money from shooting craps" The
money found ON him was composed oil
three ten dollar bills, several five dol
lar notes and the remainder silver
The money Totten lost was all ten
dollar bills. .~~ ....
The police investigated the matter
this morning and found out that Wor
ley had made small purchases at the
S. Hammond dry goods store and
handed the clerk a ten dollar bill to
change, He purchased thirty-five
cent dinner at the Princeton Chop
House and in payment for the same
handed out ten dollar bill
Morley called John Mccoy this
morning for. his counsel and pleaded
not guilty 10 both charges and his trial
was set for tomorrow morning. II
is thought, however, that the case will
be continued until it can be thorough
ly investigated.
Six tramps giving the names OF
Geo. Commin, Stanley Wright, Frank
Trayin, Lewis Miller, John Kelley and
Geo. Noon applied for lodging at the
police station last night and it was
given to them. When arraigned be
fore Mayor Ralston this morning the
sextette pleaded guilty to charge OF
vagrancy and were released from Gus

Will TOOLS Be FOUND
Destruction Of Building Awaited
With Keen Interest.

A story with a touch of the unusual
connection with the old Central
House, now being torn down by
wreckers. Some people claim that
the story was justified by facts and
that the workmen engaged in the
work will reval the conditions that
were claimed at the time.
1t is said that a number of years ago
an unusually clever counterfeit half
dollar and possibly coins of another
denomination were widely circulated
throughout Iowa. The counterfeit
was so closely like the real article in
color, feel, weight, ring and appear
ance as to fool almost anyone and to
defy experts. Government agents
took up the trail and even the noted
Pinkertons were called in by the gov
eminent and assisted in the case.
Complaints came from several locali-
ties but the greatest number seemed
to be from Iowa. The coins had be-
come widely circulated In the mean
time and banks were having difficulty
in wedding them out, so perfect was
the imitation. Having been at work
upon the case a number of months,
the detectives established the facts
that banks in Oskaloosa, Ottumwa,
Knoxville, Abba, Eddyville and Des
Moines were picking out the greatest
number of the coins. and the conclus-
ion followed that the spurious money
was introduced into circulation in
these towns, The origin of the coins
was closely watched and it was found
that the most of them seemed to come
in from miners pay. The money was
evidently being distributed among the
mining camps. The center of the min
ing industry was at Oskaloosa, and
from Oskaloosa now came the great
est number of bad half dollars. The
detectives were getting warm" and
they made an effort to catch some
person with the goods in possession.
A number of arrests were made, but
the parties we're always without evil
dence. The makers of the goods now
changed their base of operation from
Oskaloosa and the bogus began to
circulate about Des Moines camps, at
.0ttumwa, and other camps. This fact
convinced the detectives that Oskaloo-
sa was the home of the mint that was
turning out the stuff. A number of
people were under suspicion and were
closely watched A watch was also
maintained upon number of suspect
ed places, but without result for a
long time. One of the fellows en-
ployed in distributing the money be.
came intoxicated one night and the
bogus money was traced to him. He
had great quantity of 1t in his pos
session and was seen to make effort
to pass coins of certain denomina,
ton when he was known to have 9th
er money. The detectives were on
his trail next day and he was traced
to the old Central House. The place
had been suspected for some timc,o
account of the presence OF certain

TWO MINES CLOSED.
Shafts Number Eleven and Thirteen
At Buxton Idle.

A shutdown in mines No. II and

at Buxton and the action was Ques-

places. About 500 miners are EN-

The rumor to the effect that al OF
