formerly was a member Of the general
staff of Colonel Arthur l.. Oliver of
the old Sixth Regiment, when he was
an officer of the ccmmissary depart

Captain Bridges received his first
news of the mobilization of the Mis-
souri, militia Sunday afternoon when
he was told to &c in readiness for

mediately from st. Louis to Nevada.
The troops TO be sent 10 the border

will be several days before all will go
forward. As a consequence, Captain
Bridges said he may have an Oppor-

TRADE DISREGARDS
MEXICAN TROUBLE
Some Demand for War Supplies
-Guardsmen Missed.

So far as the commercial agencies
sec IL there is no bad effect discernible
in trade conditions because Of the
Mexican trouble beyond calling from
work to military duties men whose ser
vices are needed. Against this there is
already apparent a special demand for
some classes of military supplies. Gen
eral business is still above normal for
this time OF year.
"Dun's Review" says: with the
economic structure, through the better
organization Of banking resources,
credits, and industry, resting on more
solid foundation than ever before, con-
fdence is unimpaired by the interna-
tional contingencies Constructive de-
velopments still predominate IN the
business world, and remarkable actlV-
itv prevails at period which ordin-
arily is one Of the quietest OF the year.
There is no longer the rush TO buy that
featured recent operations the high
costs entering more into calculations
now that requirements are manly COW
cred far ahead-but in most instances
new demands are greater than usual al
the beginning Of summer.

the United States are PSI, against 295
last week. 2S7 the preceding week and
43l the corresponding week last year.
OF these 80 were in the East, 20 South,

"Rradstreet's" has the following:

this season, but just now buyers pre-

nossible lower prices and freer move
ments of goods by retail dealers. So
far the only effects of the Mexican dis
turbance besides calling out for service
