Washington, Sept. II, President Will

find the administration currency bill
well on it's way through the House, with
the Democratic majority holding it firm
against attack so far, and the tariff diff
ferences between the House and Senate
well ON the way to settlement. Some
of his advisers thought the Underwood
Simmons bill might come before him for
signature next Monday. Outwardly, the
most pressing question in the Mexican
situation was whether congratulatory
message should be despatched to Mexico
City on the occasion OF the 103d ami
versary of Mexican independence, and to
whom it should be addressed. Some off
cials were of the opinion that such a
measure would be, in a measure. recOg-

IN BOSTON MARKETS.
Butter Prices Rising, Also Cheese and
Eggs, Poor Pasturage Responsible.

Boston, Sept. l7.-Prices of butter are
still on the rise in the local market and
cheese and eggs also command more
money now than they did last week. Re-
eeipts of butter continue light and the
arrivals, especially from the west, in
clude only small proportion of strictly
fancy goods. The news from the pro-
ducing sections is not very encouraging;
it seems that the rains, which fairly gen
orally relieved the drouth, were followed
by frosts and with the cows going dry,
the prospect Is getting poor for anything
like normal fall production, Poor pas
turage and scarcity of milk are reflect
ed in higher prices for cheese in the
country and with replacing costs higheh
Boston dealers are seeking higher prices.
The market is almost bare OF hennery
eggs and is not over and above well sup
piled with gathered stock of good quail
ity.

SLUMP IN RENO'S
DIVORCE BUSINESS
The Railroads Suffer Big Loss in
Traffic in Conse-
uuence

Omaha, Neb., Sept. 1.-THE decline
Of the divorce business at Reno, New,
Ass lessened the railroad passenger traf-
&c to and from that city by 40 per
cent. According to reports in the 0ma-
ha headquarters of the transcontinental
railroads operating through this terri.
tory, 40 per cent of the business with
Reno was knocked off. This is attribut-
ed to the new laws that have become
effective.
Under the old laws, divorce could
be obtained in Reno in three months.
In those days traffic was heavy. Under
the new law, a years residence is nee
essary, and the divorce colony has dwin-
died to almost nothing, with a CORE
spending drop in railroad traffic.
