New York. May 17.-Bradstreet's
Saturday said:
Trade Is quiet as a whole. unfavor-
able weather, the indefinite crop out
look and uncertainty as to prices Of
merchandise all tending to retard dis

retail.
Trade reports from the west note a
quiet to fair trade at retail, while job
bling business has been largely confined
to filling in orders. and fall trade Is re-
ported backward though perhaps equal
to year ago at this date. Except in
the lower Mississippi valley, southern
trade reports are of fair to good trade
for the season Of the year. Retail trade
at the east is only fair and wholesale
trade is disappointing. Collections re-
fleet the influence OF retarded spring

TWO WITNESSES SICK
IN The SUGAR TRIAL
Men Whose Evidence Is Needed
by the Government, Seri-
ously Ill.

New York, May 17.-Misfortune seems
to be pursuing witnesses In the sugar
scandal cases. Recently Richard Parr,
star witness In preceding trials, and
expected to figure prominently In the
trial Of Charles r. Heike, secretary of
the American Sugar Refining company,
was threatened with peritonitis, and it
Is still uncertain whether he can ap-
pear at the trial next week.
Today 1t was learned that Otto
Schneider, one Of the American Sugar
Refining company's bookkeepers, on
whose testimony the government de-
ponds even more largely In the Heike
prosecution. Is seriously i'll. The pros
poets are that he will be unable to tes-
tify.
The government counsel, while some
what cast down at the illness of Parr
and Schneider, insist that other evil
dence has developed that makes their
case stronger than ever, and that the
trial of Heike and others accused in
the sugar conspiracy cases will start
next Monday, according to schedule.
