New Youk, Nov. 17. R. G. Dun & Co.' weekly review says : In nearly all branchesof business grad ual improvements appear and the hope ful feeling observed last week continues. It was noted that the main conditions ot business and trade had not suddenly changed, and this belief was clearly to the disappointment of some. Low farm products, low wages and only partial employment of labor still retard distribution, and the limited de mand hinders the recovery of industries. Prognss towards recovery has not ceased and ninny establishments have resumed or added to their producing force, s imc also advancing wages, but it will take time to lilt business out of its depression, and the progress made, if not up to the saguine expectations, is at least encouraging. The decision to offer $50,000,000 bonds lor the replenishment ol the treasury re serve was by bankers generally approved; nut events are snowing that restoration of confidi nee cannot by itself remove all embarrassment, It is generally assumed that the offered bonds will be taken at once. The effect is less than anticipated for thcjlormal an nouncement that after a gencial recon struction of the revenue laws it is still found necessary to borrow largely, tends to raise doubts about tbc financial pro visions of the future. The reported importation of gold from London with a loss on its face ol $7,500 at present exchange rates is presumably meant to affect bond subscriptions. Itradstreets says: Perhaps the most conspicuous favorable feature of the general trade situation is lotind in the numerous reports from merchants and manulaeturers throughout the country THEItE WAS NO KECOMM EM1ATION FOK MEM Y.

Judge Clark concluded his charge at 3 o'clock in the afternoon. At 4:20 o'clock the jurors hied into the court room and a minute later their ver dict was read. ' Scarcely any one bad left the room while the jury was out. Five hundred spectators were crowded into the room. They felt that they would not have long to wait. Many women were in the crowd. When the verdict was an nounced som? of them sobbed. They sympathized with the eighteen years old murderer. The elder Meyers quivered as though shaken by a chill when the clerk ot the court read: "We the jury find the de fendant guilty." The son looked into his.father's fkee and then his eyes seemed to be looking into space. lie did not utter a word. His lips did not tremble. He seemed prepared for the verdict.

Kt'iiinbliio AliiiM Howard Munt 1'iiy Uno-Tlili'd orillMijllOOO liuud. A verdict was reached about 4 o'clock yesterday by the United States court jury in the case against Hirsdiel Candler, who had been on trial on a charge of robbing the Dillsboro postoffice. The verdict was "not guilty" and the youth ful defendant was discharged. The point raised by ludee Merrimon iu the matter of the bond ot C. B. Krum bine alias J. C. Howard that sufficient evidence wus not submitted upon which a warrant might be issued was over ruled. Howard's bond was forfeited, and a compromise effecti d whereby one third of the $1000 bond, or $333 33 it. is to be paid to the court. This compro mise affects the bond only and would not stop proceedings against Howard if he should again fall into the hands of the luw. Kiehard oius was sentenced to three months imprisonment and fined $100 and costs. Wm. Milan, Henry Jones, Miltord Corn, David Honevcutt, Alex ander Honeycu't and Joshua Franklin were sent up for one montli each and fined $100 and costs. The grand jury was discharged yester day. The body returned 337 bills, leav- ing over 100 not acted upon, for want of witnesses. At 11 o'clock this morning the court adjouriieJ to Monday. FOll HALF AN HOVK'S Il.K.Nt It. Win. l'OKtmiiHtol' Limine; Must Pnv C ol Do boll SHI. Sea Isle City, N. J., Nov. 17. Unless he appeals the case Postmaster Laning, of Bridgeton, will have to pay Col. Wm. T. Dubose $10 for' keeping his mouth shut hall an hour. The postmaster, after a wordy war with Col. Dubois, told him to shut his mouth and keep it shut for half an hour and he would be given $10. Dubois, who is commander ot the New Jersey military division of the Knights of tlie" Golden Eagle, look advantage of Laning's offer, and then sued to get the money, Liming having refused to pay it. When the case came up for trial Lin ing filed an offset ot $14 ngninst Dubois for subscriptions to his paper, the Bridgeton Chronicle, for printing and other things. Laning's lawyer, cx-Cit Solicitor Charles S. Sliepliaril, urged that the offer mane bv the editor to the colonel was not to be taken literally as the matter did not amount to a contract in the eve of the law. Ex-Assemblyman Van Sickle contended that ns Laning bad received the benefit of Col, Dubois' silence, his client was entitled to recom pense. Squire Meyers was evidently ol the same frame ot mind, for he allowed the claim ol $10 and imposed the costs, amounting to $5.75, on Laning. It is understood that Postmaster Lan ing will carry the case to a higher court. lMUlt rilEE TIN. l,ai'KG Mill Company to lio lui'oi'po-ruled. PirrsmjRG. Pa., Nov. 17. D. B.

Whitworth's reasons for assassinat ing Chancellor Allison have been given to the public today in the shape of an ante-mortem statement. They are of a most sensational character, impugning not only the judicial but the personal in tegrity of Jti'lge Aliison. The statement charges that by agree ment made as prerequisite to Mr. Whit worth's Appointment he paid to Chan cellor Allison one-hall of all fees of the tifli .e, which amounts to above $18,000 per annum, the judge's salary being $2, 500. Of course this was a violation of the law, but Mr. Whitworth further charges that Judge Allison borrowed irom mm luiuls ot the court, wbicu is prohibited by statute, and refused to se-, cure him for these amounts. The whole amount of interest and loans Allison honored reached $20,201. 22. Four of the loans were made be tore Whitworth went iuto office but, were as sumed by him. While the death of Mr. Whitworth is looked tor at any time, he has never been unconscious. KILLED liV riTZ. Just What Any I'eizo Vlerbt May Ko Hiilt In. SvuACtSE, N. Y Nov. 1".

The Manufac turers' R 'cord publishes 60 special let ters from United States Senatois and Congressmen giving their views upon the question of whether the government should furnish financial aid to secure the -arlv construction of the Nicaragua canal. The letters are about equally divided between the Democrats and the Republicans, and with only a few excep tions take strong ground in favor of the importance of the canal and of its control by the United States government, either by the government building it and owning it outright, or lending such financial aid to its construction as will insure its control bvthe government.

Thrash & Bro.'s Patton avenue Crystal Palace has necessitated nn enlargement of the capac:ly of the establishment and in consequence the basement has been fitted up and is now tilled with a large stock of wares of usefulness in a bouse, from the clothespin to the gasoline stove. But it is on the main floor of the Palace that the artistic eve is caught and lv Id by the magnificent display of china, lamps, etc. Japanese goods, Dres den and every line of chinawure are ar ranged tastefully enough to gratify the connoisseur and cause the purchaser to want to stay and look for hours at a time. The display of lamp goods is a feature of importance, with special attention called to the B. & H. The large stock of holiday goods is about on t lie shelves, and next Tuesday and Wednesday the looked-for opening of the Pulaee will be held, and it is sure to attract the usual large crowd. Mr. Thrash says he is sure there is no larger or more varied stock than that of the Palace in the Carolinns. TlioUovernniont Cannot Keep II When ItUl-tMll. Washington, Nov. 17.
