DUN'S REVIEW OF TRADE
Business Progresses Slowly and' the Maxi
mum of Aotivity is Yet to Come.
JANUARY BETTER THAN LAST YEAR
Distribution of Merchandise la on n
Liberal ' Scale, Practically All
Traffic Blockades HavloK
Disappeared,
NEW YORK, Feb. 8. R. G. Dun & Co.'s
Weekly Review of Trade tomorrow will
say: i
Business progrcsnes steadily, all specula
tive excesses having been avoided thUH
far and the numerous negotiations now
Indicating that the inuxlmum or activity
is yet to come. Some Irregularity In re
ports for the lirst mouth were undoubtedly
due to exceptlonably severe weather. The
weakness ot cotton alao had n tendency to
check operations at the south. Taken :ih
a whole, results fer January were very
much betcr than in the same month lust
)eur, particularly as to failures.
IHaWlbuilon of mere ha ndl.se is on a
liberal scale, t rattle blockade having dis
appeared and In many eases large clear
ance sales having disposed of burdensome
lucks. Collections are still somewhnt tr
ragular, but on the whole there Is little
craua for complaint. Few labor disputes
are Interrupting work, although several
new controversies are threatened. Manu
facturing -plants are milking the best re
turns. Iron furnaces snd steel mllU oper
ate close to their full capacity und the
quarterly report of the leading concern
showed an enormous tonnage ot buulnuss
on the books at the end of the year, lr
rplte the fact that the closing months of
VMt made very good exhibits. Woolen mills
maintain records of activity, but there Is
still much to be desired at cotum plants
antr shoe factories have only n moderate
amount of business In eight. Hallway e.irn-i-rm
for Jsmmry were 1.1 per cent larger
thsil last year, and foreign commerce at
this port for lust week showed un Incrense
of $33!UG9 in exports and a gain of )52S,06S
in imports.
Commercial failures this week In the
United States are 258, against 305 last week,
3S5 in the preceding week and 246 In the
corresponding week last year. Failures in
Canada number 30, against 43 last week,
24 in the preceding week and 29 last year.
DRADSTRUETS REVIEW OP TRADE
Cold Weather Hampers Trade In
Nearly All Lines.
New York, Feb. 3. Bradstreet's to
morrow will say:
Widespread cold weather hampers trade
In nearly all lines, thus retarding but not
entirely checking the opening of spring dis
tribution. Except In a few cases, however,
notably transportation and mining, industry
displays rather less than seasonable inter
ference. Except In a few lines, especially
cotton manufacturing, advance business has
been placed with a free hand and the feel
ing Is none the Icrs strong that milder
weather will usher in widespread activity
In all lines.
While the situation may be said to savor
rather of promise than of performance, it
is to be noted that the south, which has
been and Is suffering from the depression
in cotton, shows a rather better tone this
week, coincident with an advance In cotton
prh-es and report that the holding of cotton
movement grows rather than lessens. Tho
lata freeze In Florida did much damage to
lrult and truck crops.
Records of past movement confirm fairly
optimistic reports given In these columns.
January clearings are the largest ever re
enrdei; in that month, though falling be
hind those of December. The south alone
shows smaller January total than a year
ago. Failures, resultant from annual stork
taking and balancing of books, show de
creased liabilities compared with January a
year ago. The south, here too, carries the
chief burden In thnt the. entire increase In
number over a year ago Is reported by
that section, which shows the largest lia
bilities of nny group of states. Signs of
Improvement noted here will be very closely
watched.
Railroad earnings for January will show
a moderate Increase in gross receipts.
Pig iron remains quiet as heretofore re-
fiorted, but this quiet in the crude form
s not Indicative of very large business In
finished products, said to be of next to
record proportions so far as orders on hand
and specifications coming tn can indicate.

ly sold ahead. Copper and lead are higher
on the week.
The dry goods trade still shows hesita
tion In the cotton goods branch. Woolen
floods meet with encouraging trade nt the
eadlng eastern centers. Western jobbers
note that cold weather restricts buying at
large centers, but a fair business is doing
through salesmen. Eastern shoe manufac- i
turers report fair orders, but shipments are
smaller than a year ago. Wool is quiet,
but firm here. London wool sales prices
were good except that some low grade I
cross-breds weakened slightly.
Weather conditions curtail outdoor activl- !
ties and especially affect conl trade move- I
ment. Owing to car congestion shipments
are away behind and Ice In harbors affects j
deliveries to vessels. Building activity has
been lessened by recent cold weather and I
lumber and building mnterlal for imme-
dlate use are affected thereby. Lumber,
however, is strong at primary Lolnts and a
large demand at high prices is looked for.

POSSE HUNTS FOR MURDERER
Nevr Jersey Man Found Dend
Sleigh and People Are
Aroused.
In
PLAIXFIELD. N. J., Feb. 3. This vi
cinity Is being hunted over by a posses in
an attempt to find the murderer of George
Williams, a young grocer In the village of
Watchunf, who was found dead in his
sleigh on the road yesterday. Williams
had started out to drive a well dressed
stranger to Warrenvllle and that was the
last seen of him until ho was found dead.
The stranger has disappeared and no mo
tive for the crime can be learned.
The mysterious stranger said he was In
a hurry to reach Warrenvllle, where he
had an Important cngugement, and Induced
the grocer to drive him to Warrenvllle.
Footprints in the snow, apparently miulo
by a man walking backwurdH, led from
where the sleigh was found to the house
of a Frenchman named Pollock, whom the
stranger had said he wishrd to visit. The
house was apparently deserted and up to
today Pollock cannot be found. From
Pollock's hoose the footprints were fol
lowed to the Mllllngton railroad station,
where the station agent said a man answer
ing the description of the stranger had
boarded a train for New Tork without
buying a ticket. Today a posse of farmers
ire guarding the Pollock home waiting the
return of the Frenchman. The latter bears
a good reputation.
Qeorgs II. Wood, sn ironworker, sur
rendered to the police tonight. He was
held on suspicion that he knows something
about the killing of Williams. Wood is
Mrs. Pollock's grandson. It Is thought by
the police that he may be the man who
hired Williams to drive him to Mrs. Pol
lock's farm. An autopsy showed that Wil
liams was shot from behind, through the
heart. A bullet extracted from the body
proved to be of the same calibre as some
found in Wood's room In a Plalnfleld' hotel.

ROLLER POLO fiHTS GOOD START
Great Crowd Watches tpeninir Game
at the Auditorium.
The revival of roller polo brought a great
r- "d to the Auditorium last night olid It
was i' "Tionstrated that the sport has Inst
none o' popularity It gained In the old
daye at t' e fnliieum nearlv two decades
ago. The ttuu:s last night plujsd the tame
In rougher fashion than they used to, ac
cording to old time players, and exhibited
less unesse and skill. But the contest
pleased the audience greatly and every
good play was chtered und bad ones and
awkward poses luughed at.
The Omaha team cleanly outplayed that
styled the Auditorium und won by a score
of 3 goals to 1, marie In three Innings of
fifteen minutes each. The good and bad
work was about evenly distributed among
the players, but It was shown that al
though Harry Welch may be a gnat ball
plaer and all around athlete he has not
yet mastered the art of tending gu.il In
roller polo. Goodwin and Ncison, center
and goal tenders, and Capt.i.n Uetchell for
the Omahas did brilliant wurk, and really
gave their side the vlctriry by preventing
goal after goal. All concerned invested
their efforts with mm h vim In fact, so
much that It oft-times prevented skill. The
contest was on the whole a good starter
for the sport at the Auditorium.
Captain Getchell of the Omahas, by virtue
of the victory last night, has issued a
sweeping challenge to any and all roller
skate polo teams, and Is anxious to make
one or more matches. The victory gives
the team the championship of Nebraska.
Guild had an ear badly spilt and was taken
out during the second Inning. Davis, his
substitute, also was hurt, having his cheek
cut. A. J. Tlce, who has coached both
teams to a fair knowledge of the game, was
referee. The lineup:

OMAHA BEATS t IIETE IN FAST GAME
Basket Ball Bel ween Hitch School
Teams Fast mid Snappy.
A fast, snappy and clean game of basket
ball waa played in the Young Men's Chris
tian association gymnasium last evening
between the High School basket ball team
and a team from the Creto High school.
The final score was 41 to 25 in favor of
the Omaha team. During the first h'lf
tho Omaha team had a walkaway, tha
score at the end of this half being iu to .
At the beginning of the second half it
looked as though the Crete boys were Just
getting used to .the floor, as they threw
goals from all parts of the field and with
painful regularity, while the Omnha boys
were In the same position as the Crete
team were In the first half of tho game.
At one time during tho second half the
score for that half stood 13 to 3 In Crete's
favor. But through the remarkable work
of Clark of the Omaha team the home
boys were able to pull up almost even
with their opponents before the second
half way over. Christlnnson, with his ex
cellent goal throwing, nnd Marsh, by his
clever blocking and Interfering, were the
stars for the Crete team. The score at
the end of the second half was 41 to 26 in
favor of the Omaha iJIgh school team.
During the Intermission ietween the two
halves a great drsil of a..iusement was
furnished the spectators by a number of
hand balancing and tumbling stunts per
formed by Hurley and Jennings, a couple
of Young Men's Christian association boys.
The teams lined us as follows:

We are living In an age of special
Ism; an age when success can only he
attained by the concentration of every
thought upon the unswerving pursuit
of a single object. We are precisely
such socialists. This accounts for
the difference between success and
failure in the treatment and cure of
diseases of men. The physician who
tries to explore and conrpier the whole
field of medicine and surgery becomes
proficient In no particular branch. We
have confined ourselves entirely to a
single class of diseases and the com
plications that ensue and mastered
them. We do not scatter our faculties,
but concentrate them on one particular
specialty. We have made a life study
of diseases snd weaknesses peculiar to
men, spending thousands of dollars In
researches involving a special sys
tem of treatment that Is a quick, safe
and certain cure for all skin, nervous,
blood and trlvate diseases.
Our fism has been a household
synonym throughout the west for over
a ouarter of a century for remarkable
skill and ability In the treatment and
cure of the diseases and weaknesses
so prevalent among men.
If you are drifting In a sea of slrk
ness and disease toward the rocks and
shoals of chronic Invalidism, you
should stop drifting and consult the
eminent speclnllsts connected with
the STATE MEDICAL INST1TUTB
at once, before it is too late.
