Six assistants The salary Of the chief
will be $2,400 per annum The ap-
pointment was made by instructions
from Mayor Thompson, who wished
Dr.. Carey to have place which he
could hold without interfering with
his church duties.
Dr. Carey is one Of the most prom
inent ministers of the A. M. E. con-
nection and has been remarkably sue

tor. He is a man Of great eloquence
and moral courage. He has won fame
for himself in fighting segregation
in every form. In a recent pubic
speech Mayor Thompson said: "Dr.
Carey is one Of my best friends, and
the principal reason that | admire him
IS the fact that he IS fearless in his
fight against injustice. He never con
dones wrongs against the colored peo-
pie, as many 50 called leaders have
done I admire the man who fears
not to stand for the right"
The Rev. DR.. Carey is a member
of the Illinois commission for the
coming Lincoln Jubilee and half CEN
tury celebration, which opens in Chi
cago on Sunday, August p, with a
great religious congress. He IS also
interested in many other good move
ments for the advancement Of the

BRADSTRE ET'S REPORT

Bradstreet's Burlington, VT, office
reports granite manufacturers have
considerable business on hand at
present and immediate orders are
coming in freely. There is afurther
consideration on the part of certain
manufacturers in this line Of en-
largement of their plants. Granite
quarry owners report large ship
ments. Marble for building work
is quiet. The ammunition plant re-
port liberal orders on hand and the
output of the factory is taxed to the
utmost. One wooden manufacturer
reports further orders received dur
ing the past week for goods to be
shipped to foreign points. Wooden
manufacturers including those whom
manufacture handles, butter tubs,
plates and dishes report orders COM
ing in freely. Veneer manufacturers
report the smaller buying on the
part of the furniture factories have
affected the volume of their business.
The demand during the past few
months is reported light. Paper
manufacturers report little if any
change in the general demand. Lum-
Der is moving slowly. The farmers
in certain sections have commenced
the harvest Of the hay crop. The
crops all over the state do not look
as good as usual. Lack Of rain has
been felt in a detrimental manner.
Corn is doing fairly we'll. Lots of
berries have been placed on the mar
ket at reasonable prices. General
trade conditions among the retail
stores has been fairly good. Buying
for the future is still hesitant, ex-
cept in those places where the manu-
featuring plants have been held by
orders for war material and goods.
Collections are still reported below
normal. One mercantile failure is
reported for the week just closed.
