having taken effect in his left side nea,
the heart.
Mr.. Phillips lives in the vicinity
About half block from the club houss
he was approached by a man in rougl

who. without warning, drew a revolve,
and began firing. The stricken mar
was at once carried into the Princetor
club. 1t was seen that his condition
was serious. Later he was taken ia

An examination Of the wound showed
that 1t was in q dangerous proximity
to the heart. Meantime the assassil

A single shot sufficed and the mar
dropped dead in the street. A hasty
examination gave no clue to his iden.
tity. Neither was Mr.. Phillips able to
throw any light on the cause Of the
attack.

FOR SENATOR AS YET
Quorum Fails to Appear at AL
bany and Single Ballot Shows
No Change.

Albany N. Y, Jan. 23.-The fourth
Joint ballot for United States senatof
today resulted in no choice. No quorum
of the joint legislative assembly was
present and the votes cast indicated no
change in the situation.
Mr.. Sheehan returned to New York
last night, but intends to return Mon
day. His departure emphasizes the gen.
eral belief that the truce will last
over today's session. Before he depart
ed he paid his second visit to the ex-
ecutive chamber and made another eff
fort to enlist Governor Dix's aid.
All the governor would say about
this conference was that Mr.. Sheez
han showed him a copy of the letter
written in his behalf by Mr.. Parker.
The governor added that his position
on the senatorship question was I'M
changed. He believed 1t his duty to
keep his hands off.

BRADSTREET AND DUN
REPORT ON BUSINESS.
Strong Improvement Shown In
Financial Conditions, Is the
Statement Made.

New York, Jan. 23.-Dun's review
Saturday said:
Improvement in financial conditions
has been a marked development in
the last few days, and to some extent
has been accompanied by a more ac-
tive trade distribution, although the
Industrial contraction Of the last half
year IL still in evidence.
This Improvement also is reflected
In more encouraging aspects Of the
iron and steel market While produce
ton is still only half capacity, and
there Is no decided change In condi-
tons, yet there Is new export busi-
ness Of note and increased buying by
the railroads. Copper is slightly weak
er, because stocks are heavy, notwith-
standing the big world consumption.
Many large dry goods buyers have
been in the primary markets, but them
operations are still along conservative
lines. A considerable export trade has
been done with the rar east In the
last seven weeks. Printers are get>
ting a very fair share Of trade.
Bleached sheetings have been adj
vanced and common blankets have
been priced for the season at very
slight advances"
Bradstreet's today says:
Trade undercurrents are running
more freely In consonance with the
progress of the season. While the
larger centers report that statesmen
are sending In better orders for dry
goods and kindred lines, less important
cities, principally in the south, agree
trade is only fair to good.
AT the moment jobbers are busy
on early spring shipments, and whole
sale trade has not yet assumed an ac-
tive appearance. In fact, buyers are
still displaying a conservative attitude,
preferring apparently to buy frequent
ly rather than in large volume at any
one time. In Industrial lines little in the
way of improvement has developed.
On the one hand there is better de-
mand for lumber at southern points,
fertilizers were active, farm machinery
Is In good request and builders hard
ware is in demand. Profits in this
line are scanty. Brightness in those
lines is offset by further weakness in
the steel trade in general, by quietness
In curtailments Of leather output and by
the widespread demand, north and
south, for a further reduction in cot
ton mill products. In the cotton goods
trade, ginghams and the finer makes
of goods are relatively best situated,
but coarser articles do not make an
enviable showing. In the east the shoe
industry Is quiet.
