vlcw of Trndosnys :
In nil directions tlio business outlook Im
proves and Iho volume of tr.ida so increases ,
notwithstanding the recent enormous increase
of circulation , thnt the money markets nro
growing stringent. Exports luvo become re-
nmrknbly large anil the domestic trndo is
such that exchanged outside of New York
exceed Inst year's 15 per cent. Hut whllo
New York anil Boston money mark
ets nro fairly supplied nnd steady

utG lo 8 per cent'Milwaukee ; a close market
at * , nndSavannuhu tight inarcct : ; but nt
Cleveland nnd Detroit the markets are rather
easier ; at ICausna City lirm ; nt Denver u good
demand Is well supplied ; at Onrahn the
market Is ensy , nnd at Pitts burg there Is n
good dcmnnd without stringency. Trade Is
strong : everywhere. At Uoston wool is
rising and goods nra in better de
mand , while cottons are selling well and
lirm. At Philadelphia It is more active and
slightly higher , tlio output of cottons is In
creasing , und there Is mi increased demand
fonmncr , with n tendency toward advance
in some shades , The liquor trade Is stimu
lated by new duties. Chicago reports smaller
receipts of prain , cured meats nnd dressed
beef , cheesy and butter than aycarairo , hut
n slight Increase in lard nnd double the re
ceipts of wool , and larger transactions in dry
goods nnd merchandise , generally with satis
factory payments. St. Kouis merchants are
adjusting themselves to the new tariff
tariff conditions and trade 1 ? strong1. At
Cleveland and Milwnuhoo ttio bud weather
has retarded trade , which Is nevertheless
of fnir volume. At St. Paul , Omana , Denver
nnd Kansas City trade Is good. .At Mlnue-
npulls the Hour output declines to 100,000 , bar
rels , but wheat receipts were 1,800,000 bush
els , At Pittsburgtho Iron nnd glass trades
nro active , with prospects of nn ndvnnco in
window glass. Atsnvnmmh trade is brisk.
The weekly output of pig iron in Septem
ber was IJi.tl per cent larger than n year ago.
There are more sales of pig at Cleveland , and
nil manufactured iron is In Inrgo demand. At
Pittsburg , pic is n little weak nnd Desscmcr
notably , but the demand fornllmanufactured
iron nnd steel is growingstrouger. At Phil
adelphia tlio steadiness in steel Is encourag
ing , though Ilossimor Is weak , nnd all fin
ished products are in good dcmnnd. The
noteworthy fact at New York is the snlo of
Tennessee iron , Lucy or Ensleo brand nnd
strict No. 1 foundry , at $15.2 , ) per ton. The
coal trade is more confident nnd September
prices now rule. Tin is l c lower , nut lead
is stronger .it ! > . ' . > cents , nnd copper at IGJf to
17 cents. Of the textile industries the in
creasing dcmnnd for cotton nnd wool bears
witness , though the production of print
cloths nt present prices is held unprofitable.
Another great industry has been mailing
notable progress. The number of hogs
packed at th o west March 1 to October 1 was
7W)5,000 ) , against BWO,000 hist year an iu-
crease of nearly 35 per cent.
Speculation in wheat has made furthcrpro-
grcss this week , the price rising l } $ emits on
small sales , but the reports are practically
stopped. In September , n95t ! . ' > g bushels ,
npalnst 2,223,101 , lust year , went from Atlantic
ports , and thus fnr In October only a small
part of last year's exports Tor four days of
this week , 1(53.000 ( bushels , against -lit',000last
year. Corn also goes abroad but little , hav
ing advanced during the weolc only 3c ( ( , while
oats hnvo risen l c. But the export move
ment of the latter is extraordinarily large
in September , 1207,000,000 pounds , against
170,000,000 pounds last year , nnd in October
thus far there Is n largo increase , helped by
the yielding in price , of MGc this week. The
exports of provisions nro also very heavy
in September , $11,918,410 In. value , against
$3,707tM5 lost year , and this also continues ,
prices being steady , In petroleum
exports there was an Increase in
quantity Inst month 78,000,000 , callons ,
against 59,000,000 last year. Thus , in splto of
the suppression of exports of brendstuffs by
Ulgh prices , the increase In value of the prin
cipal products wns almost 10 per cent in Sep
tember , and the nggregntoof exports for that
mouth will not vary much from tlio remark
ably largo vnluo of Imports.
The now tariff has caused an advance In
prices ot some kinds of goods , which , to
gether with the rise resulting from partial
fnlluro of crops , hns moved up the general
level of price materially , though , less than 1
per cent on all commodities slnco October 2 ;
but the higher range of prices accounts in
part for the quick absorption of a circulation
fnr greater than that of last year.
The business failures during the last seven
days number SJ27 , as compared with 215 last
week. For the corresponding week of last
year the figures were i J3.

Mounts. III. , Oct. 17. James Maxwell was
hanged at 10:17 : this morning for the murder
of Charles Decker In Juno last. IIo was
game to the last amd died apparently the
most unconcerned man in Morris.
Maxwell was the coolest man in the place.
1 ast night , when the sheriff showed some
sign * of trepidation at the tusk bofora him ,
Maxwell said :
"Brace up , old man. You'ro much more
troubled about this thing thnii lam. "
IIo slept well and nto his breakfast with
apparent relish this morning.
Ills spiritual advisors received a severe
shock this morning when they went In to
administer the last , words of consolation to
him. An enterprising reporter had
been before them. Ho had as
sumed the guise of a minister Avlth
the idea of getting nn interview.
Ho failed , for when the newspaper ropro-
scmuuvo oegan in question mm as to ms
spiritual welfare , ftlnxwell throw off the re
ligious mask which ho had hitherto worn and
drove his visitor from him with n string of
curses of the most sulphurous sort.
When the sheriff beirnn to read the death
warrant in n trembling voice , Maxwell inter
rupted with : "Stop thnt cab , Scroeder , and
lot us get through with this tiling as soon as
possible. "
Ills wish was compiled with and ho was at
once conducted to the gallows. A brief
prayer was offeredtho prisoner was pinioned
and Iho noose adjusted. The sheriff asked
him if ho had any thing to say. Ills reply was
n complaint that the sheriff had nut n window
in the shunty where the execution took place
so that tno crowd outiido could see him.
The sheriff then cut tbo cord nnd the body
foil. In six minutes Maxwell was pronounced
dead. Just before leaving his cell Maxwell
huudod the sheriff a big knife , telling him
that ho might hnvo Killed himself half a
dozen times bad ho wished to do so.

to THE Br.E.J Oh A'pril 8 , last , the .Tohunna ,
a German bark well 'known ' in Australian
wnters , left Mauritius for Melbourne. For
some days everything was plain sailing ; then
there followed a series of disas
ters such us are not often met
with even in the annals of the sea. Ono by
one the crew became prostrated by raauritius
fever , nnd when almost every band on board
was lying ill the ship was caught in a gale.
Two men and ono woman were left to work
the vessel , Captain Melnders , the chief mate ,
and the carpenter's wife. The heroine of
this narrative ban u noublo duty tote
to perform. She had , in the llrst place , to
assist , her husband and the mate In tbo diffi
cult task of running the ship during the
gnlo , but in spite of ; her efforts denth wns
busy. The sailors died one after another ,
and flnnlly the captain himself was
struck down. Mrs. Molndors aud the
llrst' mate were loft alone to face the
storm and bring the vessel to port. For forty
days this woman stood nt the wheel , saw to
the rigging nnd took an nctlva part In the
management of the ship. To crown nil , her
husband died , but the bravo woman held on
to tlio very end nnd the vessel llnally reached
a haven of safety , ftlarghorltn. Mcindors is
only twenty-seven years of age , She wns
married in ISS'J end hns been nt sea ever
since. She has two children , one , a boy , now
being educated In Germany ; the other a little
girl of llvo , who ran about , the deck of the
Johanna through nil its experience.

Squires AtOo.'s Miiohiiics Fail to Do
the Work Kcqulrcil.
Yesterday afternoon was the time sot by
the board of public works for 0. E. Squires ,
the street swooping contractor , to prove that
his machines nro cimal to the emergency. At
4 o'clock two of the sweepers were pulled to
Twentieth unit Faruam and started west on
the cedar block pavement. The work they
performed was rated fair.
"Put them on a rough pavement and I will
prove to you that they are not worth u conti
nental , " remarked the chairman , as several
members of the committee suggested there
was nothing wrong with the sweeping.
The sweepers were turned about and again
started cast on the Sioux Palls cranlto with
which lower Fctrnnm Is paved. The drivers
set the brooms down until they seemed n part
of the pavement nnd the mules leaned into
the collars. The wheels slid along the stone ,
but the dirt remained. The next test was
inado on Ninth street , from Howard to Jones.
Hero the committee concluded the work was
not up to the standard , nnd the machines
were pulled over to Thirteenth street and
sent down as far as Jones. The committee
followed along In the cloud of dust mid than
snt down on the curb stone , where the mem
bers debated the question.
At last it was decided that the street
sweepers cannot do the work as required
under the contract , and such a report will bo
made to the council ,

Subject of lliibbl Jtoscnaii's Ijccturo
nt the Temple ot * Israel ,
A fair sized audience greeted Unbbl Ro-
seiiau at the Temple of Israel last night ,
where he delivered his lecture upon "Con
sistency , " "Tho natural parts of religion
live on , " said he , "In splto of the efforts of
many who seek to bury them in eternal ro-
motcncss. Ko matter whcro wo look , wo
find the great and ever powerful lemon of
consistency preached to us In the walks of
every day life , and notwithstanding the ef
forts of man to overthrow this doctrine , na
ture preaches it in tlio most eloquent terms.
( Jo out on n clear day and g.izo upon the
warm sun ; think how long it has shod its
rays upon the earth , bringing forth ( Trains ,
fruits and ( lowers , and Ihon think how long
this will continue. When this is considered ,
no reasoning man or woman can help but say
that iho doctrine of consistency is lofty and
evc.ilnsttng. At night you see thousands of
stars that , help to light the belated traveler
on his way , and of this host , each one
preacnus aim icticuro LIIU KL ab uuu uvti im
portant lesson of consistency.
"Today in the Holds whcro the corn , the
wheat and the fruits grow , there they will
grow nges hence nnd when wo consider that
each grain Is adopted to its own particular
soil , again I say you cannot help considering
tha mighty words and doctrines of consist
eney.
' Conslstencv Is the grand bulwark upon
which this universe has its foundation nnd
the lesson taught by the Inanimate things
should bo practiced liy the men nnd women ,
bull regret to snr that there nro hundreds
nud thousands of men and women who will
go to the Now Year's atonement , where they
will promise to practice this great lesson , hut
they soon forgot and go on sinning against
their fellow-incn. forgetting the poor mid
needy nnd living lives that will not bland the
toil of a close and careful scrutiny.
"Henceforth , whatever you do , lot consist

About sevenly-llvo property owners who
are Interacted in n reduction of tno special
tax levied upon their property for the pur
pose of raising funds to pay damages incident
to the building of the Tenth street viaduct ,
met lust night at Mots' hall , on Tenth struet.
They proceeded to dlscim the most feasible
plan by which the city council may bo com

upon the entire city Instead of pluclng it , as
it now is , upon u district In the vicinity and

lit of the city nt largo and not ono of a local
character ns constituted by the council , nnd
wobollovo Hint , If properly brought to the

Mr. Leo Kstcllo was naked to give his
opinion In the cnso , ns a property owner and
nlso ns an attorney. Ho snld ho believed
that It was unjust lor the city to assess nil
of the siioeiiil taxc.i Incident to the building
of the viaduct upon the adjacent property on
the south sldo , hut it should have been
assessed upon the cut ire city. The Improve ,
niunt , Mr. Kstollo claimed , Is n general ono
Instead of a local one. How in favor of
fighting the ease upon that basis.
Councilman Lowry spoke to the same
effect.
Attorney Cornish was called nnd snld that
ho had several clients who would innko n
sjwcial fight upon the specinl assessment , but
ho wished them to haven hand in tlio general
light also. Ho believed that the plan which
had been adopted by the city council In plac
ing the assessment was radically wrong , In
some Instances where property owners
should hnvo had the damages they luivo
been called upon to pay special taxes
on account of this viaduct. Ho bclloves the
benefits of the viaduct were general mid far
repelling , and the entire city should help pay
tha damages.
John lUiimlt wns elected treasurer to take
charge of the funds raised for the expenses
of the law suit. It was decided to p-oeecd
with the case and each property owner was
urged to nay In at least $ > , so that n roadv
cash fund might boon hand for nctlvo busi
ness. 'J'ho meeting then adjourned ,

Successful Trial Trip of the V. It.
Norton ,
WII.MIXOTOX , Del. , Oct. -Special [ Tele
gram to Tin : lii ) : : . ] Secretary Trncyhns sent
Naval Constructor Hobb from Washington
to Inspect tbo valvo-rlgged steamer K L , .
Norton and note her performance under
steam. Her Inventor , P. L. Norton ,
has such nbsolnto faith In his boat's
indestructibility nnd her capacity to buffet
the roughest winds ami waves that ho will
start on a trip to Toulon , Franco , on Novem
ber 1 , touching at the Bermudas and Azores.
Air. Norton will take his wife and nleco with
him. Ho will nlso go to Franco and Oer-
many on the invitation of the governments.
The Norton Is a pudgy little craft , 53 feet
overall and 51 feet between her uprights.
She Is IL'.O feat In beam mid her total
depth Is ( > y feot. Ilesitles being equipped
with a 25-hor.sp onglno. she is rigged s n
yawl nnd before the wind can make ten miles
nn hour , The displacement is twcutv-livc
tons. The peculiarity and advantages of the
Norton is her double shell or double bottom.
She rides under steam or sail on her outer
bottom nml floats on her inner bottom. Her
wings or bilges contain compressed air , every
movement of the vessel adding or decreasing
the volume of nir uud thereby adjusting the
vessel to every limned into need or
emergency. It la claimed that it
is ini possible to upset the boat
in water or even ovctturn her by n pile. If
built on this plan it is claimed that passenger
steamers can save days of tlino and draw
thrco feet less of water. The trial trip today
disclosed the fact that the boat steams along
without a roll or pitch and leaves absolutely
no wake astern. The naval department rep-
rcscntntlvo expressed himself ns being fully
satisfied with the trip.
