BRADSTREET'S WEEKLY
VERMONT TRADE REPORT

Reports to Bradstreet's for the week in
dictate more life in retail trade and bust
ness in seasonable goods is said to have
improved with the favorable warm
weather that has prevailed. There is
more being done in building work and
the sales of builders supplies is reported
good, some ahead of the period. Labor
is in demand both by the manufacturing
interests and by the farmer. Owing to
the wet condition of the low lands the
farmers have been unable to do mucn in
those places but the work is progressing
well in other places. The granite manu-
tacturers are very busy. reporting. as
they do, an excess of business for the
period The demand for marble for mon
umental work compares well with that of
granite for the same purpose Wood
working shops report considerable bust
ness ahead and the machine interests are
employed full time. Receipts at the
diaries arc reported as increasing, the
high prices that are being paid for both
milk and cream look attractive to the
farmers. General wholesale trade Is re-
ported as showing some improvement
The outlook for the near future promises
an increase in retail trade and some i'm
proyement with collections, which at
present are reported in the main, inclined
to he slow. The week has been free from
failures.
Burlington manufacturing interests are
well employed and the retail merchants
state there is a better trade than was
had a year ago this time. Rutland ma
chine and marble interests report labor
well employed while manufacturers Of
lumber note there has not been the usual
amount of logs brought into the market
The business done at the retail stores is
said some improved. Reports from the
manufacturing interests at St Adams in
dictate there is n scarcity OF help in GER
tain lines. The farmers In this section
note a normal production of maple sugar.

trade among the retail merchants and
also states that labor In all lines is well
employed with some improvement In col

SCUTAHI AND ALBANIA.
(Trom the Brooklyn Eagle

That good old phrase, important If
true" we'll fits the story that the sur
render OF Scutari and the subsequent self
proclamation Of It's chief defender, Essad
Pabha, as king OF Albania. were the con-
sequences of a decker between King Mich
olas of Montenegro and Essad himself 1t
probably had its origin IN the fact that
Nicholas was threatened with interview
ton by the powers or by an independent
movement on the part of Austria-IIun-
gary with the purpose Of forcing him to
raise the siege OF Scutari. On that foun-
dalton it was easy for speculative persons
10 build up tn. conclusion that the sur
render Of the city to the besiegers was
Essad Pasha's price for Montenegrin sup
port of his ambition to become a reign!ng
sovereign.
If there was any substantial reason fol
supposing. first, that the defense OF
Scutari could have been prolonged or.
second, that Montenegro could give any
real assistance to the ambitions OF this
soldier of fortune, tn story Of the deal
would be plausible enough But we know
that the last "a hours OF the Siege de-
Veloped the most desperate fighting that
had occurred up to that time, and we
also know that the suffering Of the gar
rlSon from famine and disease had be.
come acute. Thousands of lives would
not have been sacrificed if Essad and
Nicholas had struck a bargain, nor is 1t
likely that bargaining would have seemed
necessary to a besieger who must have
been aware of the hopeless condition to
winch his opponents We're reduced.
Montenegro in possession Of Scutari and
Essad lasha in possession of an empty
title suggest all sorts of complications.
Scutarl cannot be held in the face of reso-
Lutte opposition by the powers, but il Is
by no means clear that the powers are
either going to move themselves or let
Nustria~Hungary move toward disposses-
sion. Essad Pasha cannot set up in tho
king business simply by issuing a procla-
nation and calling upon few regiments
of starved, discouraged, ragged and IN
armed troops. II there is to be a new
war for the recapture Of Scutari one of
the results must be the occupation % Al
fania by an international force, and the
creation there OF an autonomous state
under a sovereignty which the powers
will be able to support

BETTER ACQUAINTED.

Conversing with coterie of friends Dr.
William Osler told of a rather embarrass-
ing position of wellknown physician
The physician was a guest at a social
affair, and at dinner was placed beside an
elderly lady whom he had not previously
met. Almost at once the lady, who was
inclined to garrulity, began to talk
By the way, DOCTOR" she smiingly re-
marked, Ought l to call you doctor or
professor"
you may call me what you please, ma
dame,' was the physicians quick reply.
Il am frank enough to admit, however.
that some of my friends call me an old
fool"
II see, DOCTOR" smilingly replied the
lady, but, of course they must be peo-
pie who know you intimately"
