Messrs. R. G. Xhnn & Co. says:
"Thero is more business, though not

almost ail prices which change at all

iness is unquestionable larger. There
is a laager production, - but as yet not
as much increase in consumption, and
there is larger buying 61 materials, but
at present enly because better-prices
are expected in -the future. A few con
spicuous failurres during the weekhavd
had no material influence. The mar
ket for securities are slightly stronger
and yet there is very little doing.
The number of hands employed,
all industries considered, is slight
ly larger than a week ago, with
out adverse changes in. the rate of
wageSi All apprehension of foreign dis
turbance of money markets has passed
away, but there is still a great caution
in making loans. It is a mistake to
reckon these as symptoms of depres

lower range of prices in. important in

CUBA'S OTIIKR SCOUIJGE.
There Are 2,053 Cases of Sinall-Pox
.in Havana Alone.
There are now 2,053 cases of small
pox in Havana. At Guannajay, in Pinar
dei Rio, . which has only jl 0,000 inhabi
tants, there are 467 cases. Yellow
fever and malaria are also ravaging the
conntry, and it may be- safely affirmed
that the 'sanitary condition of Cuba is a
far g. eater danger to the United States
than the much-feared bubonic plague of
India. Cuba is close to our coasts, and
there is d.ily communication between
the island and the main larid.
At the end of March the depressing
warm weather begins here,' and then
diseases of a. contagious nature spread
twice as fast as during the winter.
Cuba is now a focus of disease, and
may become a source of danger, perhaps
to the whole world.
The small pox was introduced here by
the 200,000 soldiers from Spain. The
Spanish common people are not cleanly
in their habits, and moreover, they
come to uuba crowu,ea by thousands in
the dirty steamers of the Compania
Transatlantics, in which no well bred
American would travel if he could help
it. , .', : -
Women for War."
1A question of woman's rights has
been raised in the war department and
is likely to cause discussion. The-civil

to nil a $1,000 vacancy in the Admtant-

ot nve modern languages, . typewriting
m tnese languages, proof reading, li

Eighty-Three Cuban Claims.
Faiday in response to .a resolution
the President transmitted to the Senate
a list of the claims filed in the Derjart-
lnent of State by American citizens
against Spain, arising out of the insnr
riection in the Island of Cuba, together
with such correspondence relating to
the capture f the schooner Competitor
and the persons claiming American Cit
izenship taken on that vessel as he dpes
not deem it incompatible with th nnh.
lid interest to communicate. The list
of claims includes 83, and aggregate
nearly, ten. million dollar!, where the
amount is stated.
. Weyler Still Devastating.
A dispatch from Havana, bearing
date of January 22, states that Captain
General Weyler " has ordered the" de
struction witftin three days1 of all the
plantations and buildings in the pro
vince of Havana that would be likely to
prove useful "to the rebels. The dis
patch adds that General Weyler has re
called General Pin, the commander of
the troops in the province of Santa
Clara for the reason that he had held
conferences with land owners in that
province respecting General Weyler's
order issued to prevent the obtaining
of food by the rebels. .

Southern Improvement.
The , Manufacturers' Record, in its
weekly review of business conditions
in the South, gives a detailed statement
showing the total value of all exports
from Southern ports for the eleven
months ending November, 1896, "as
compared with the corresponding time
in 189o. the total figures for' 1896 being
$298, C38, 200 against $220,208, 612 in 1895,
a gam of $78,(500,000. The increase iii
the value of exports for the period
named from the entire country was
$15,800,000; the gain at Southern ports
bring a little more than one-half of the.
total for the country. .
An Apt Comparison.
The following is an interesting coin.
pari3on: "Suppose' that e farmer raises
1,000 bushels of wheat In a" year," and
also cells jthls to 1,000 persons in all
parts of. the country, a great portion of
them saying, 'I will hand you a dollar
In a ahort time.' The. fanner does not
want to be small and says 'all right.'
Soon the 1,000 bushels are gone and he
has nothing to show for it, and he then
tWizaa that he has fooled away his
'whole crop, and its value is due in
thousand little driblets.. Subsequently
he is seriously embarrassed in business
because his debtors, each dwlng him
one dollar, treat it as a small matter,
and think it would hot help much. Con
tinue this business year in and year out
as the publisher of a newspaper $o.
how long would he stand it?"

if they would do me any goo J. I therefore
bought Some of them and began to take them
