BUSINESS AND TRADE.

LIE coming Of real winter weather
during the past week has stimulated
general business. The banking clear
ances In this city show a gain of 1d.3
per cent over tho clearances Of the
corresponding week last year, which
is a substantial increase.
Tho merchants report that holiday
shopping has begun on large scale,
and that the early shopping movement
is resulting more successfully this wear
than heretofore. The Keith O 'Brien
Company opened on Monday in it's new
store corner Of State and Broadway
and enjoyed a splendid weeks trade
in the new retail center. All stores
report increased trade, and anticipate
heavy business for the rest Of the
year. Christmas departments show
large holiday stocks on display. Cash
sales have been heavy during the week,
and collections improved in percentage,
indicating e healthy condition.
The bids for tho construction OF the
new state capitol were opened during
the week, aud will bo awarded at az
carly day as practicable. Generally
speaking, tho building year has about
come to close, except for tho com
plotIon of work already in hand. The
walker skyscrapcr Is about finished,
and the bank is being moved across tbe
street and Will be open In its new
quarters tomorrow morning.

Funds arc being rapidly raised in

extension of this road fifty miles this

The general commercial reports say
that trade still displays great vigor,
and that orders for future delivery con-

holiday distribution probably exceeds
that Of any previous season.
In the dry goods line scarcity OF
various makes is noteworthy, and while
the demand shows no appreciable let
up, there is tendency to discourage
buyers from rushing in and bidding

Tho stock markets have afforded tho
principal material for discussion in
mining circles during the past week
and there has been decided down.
ward tendency in practically all the
industrial issues as a result, it is be
lieved, of tho expected tariff revision
policy of tho new administration. The
whole market towards the close of the
week reflected this condition, the COP.
per issues especially suffered from the
excessive liquidation, tight money and
general timidity Of investors and bank
ing circles. The good bank statement
had the effect TO stem the tide slight
~ on Saturday, and while the close
was somewhat firmer, stock market
conditions still are unsettled.
1t is anticipated that this rather
drastic liquidation and short activity
will be followed by reaction upward
during the new week; but the better
informed authorities are discouraging
any extensive commitments on the
long side, and uniformly agree in
taking profits On all strong spots for
the time being.
The local mining share market is
holding its strength and activity very
well, public buying not being confined
entirely to the higher priced, dividend
paying issues as at first, but the lower
priced speculative issues have come in
for a generous share of attention.
Holiday dividends have been declared
during the past few days by the Silver
King Coalition Mine company, for
twenty-five cents share, and by the
DAILY Judge company, the latter com
pany declaring fifteen cents extra in
addition to the regular quarterly dis
bursemeDt, and there are several other
companies which are expected to take
similar action before the holiday sea.
SON The high prices Of metals dur.
ing the year have enabled the Utah
producer TO reap very large profits.
The local mining conditions are very
good, although the scarcity of labor is
being felt and the development of new
is being held back by sew
eral adverse causes.
All metals except lead are holding
market ranges, lead suffer

THE TONIC FOR
thin BLOOD.
Every Dose Of Dr.. Williams Pink
Pills Makes New Blood and
Means Renewed Health
And Strength.

People who are pale, languid, with
slight palpitation of the heart, some
difficulty in breathing and tendency
to fatigue are suffering from thin blood.
They need only the resolution to take
the right treatment and stick to it until
cured. The remedy that can be relied
upon is DIR. Williams Pink Pills for
Pale People. With every dose they
make new blood and new blood means
health and strength. They opfurther
progress of the disease and their sue
cess as a blood builder can be plainly
seen after short trial. The red cheeks,
good appetite, increased weight and
strength, cheerful disposition and re-
lief from the symptoms, all declare the
general improvement in health. It is
pure blood now that is travelling every
where through the body and the bene-
flt goes on until health is restored.
Mr.. William A. Newman, of Sagrada,
Camden county, Mo-, suffered from
thin and disordered blood as result of
an attack of the grip He says: MY
head ached continually and was filled
with kissing and roaring sounds that
were fearfully annoying. Ny heart
huttered and had regular running away
spells. My stomach was so sore that /
could hardly bear touch on that part
of my body. / had great deal of pain
in the region of my liver and the doctor
said that organ was enlarged. Ny head
and my back ached dreadfully, but
hard as it was to stand it / wouldn't
give up entirely. I dragged myself
about, kept growing worse and finally
ran down to almost nothing. First I
tried a doctor, but he did me no good.
Then / took all kinds of advertised
preparations but nothing proved help
full until I began to use DIR. Williams
Pink Pills. As soon as / got them
knew that had at last hit upon the
right remedy for my case. The very
first box did more for me than any
thing else had ever taken. I wish
had heard of them long before for they
would have saved me money and suf-
fering."
The remedy which gave Mr.. Newman
complete health can be obtained at any
drug store or direct from the DIR. VIII
iams Medicine Co., Schenectady, n. Y,

TROUBLE EXPECTED
ALONG THE WHARF
Striking Dock Workers Made no Set
tlement at Conference Held
Today.

II LONDON, May Sunless the gov.
eminent can plan legislation accept
able to both sides the general strike
of transport workers will go on to a
finish. The joint conference, ar.
ranged by the board of trade at which
! 1t had been hoped settlement could
be reached. proved fizzle today.
None of the big employers attended
although they had agreed to do so.
Leaders Of the transport workers
union who were on hand, held brief
consultation with Sidney Buxton, OF
the board of trade, after which all
hands proceeded to the home office
where the pSemier. Lloyd-George and
members of the cabinet discussed the
situation behind closed doors.
The employers association a, q
meeting held last night agreed to
nrce the fight to a finish They de
clared that the union was short of
funds and because of the tie-up, occa-
stoned by the recent coal strike, the
majority of the labor unions of the
country were opposed to strikes at
the present time and would refuse to
contribute to defense fund. Believ.
ing this, the officials of the employers
association insist that now Is the
time to break the transport workers
union for all time
The announcement OF this attitude
hit caused bitter feeling against the
employers by the union men who have
heretofore strenuously opposed all
disorder and kept their members in
line, and it is feared rloting will re-
suit if the employers continue to
keep strike breakers at work.
The police guards at the various
docks were increased today in antici
patton of trouble.
