NEW YORK. Nov. 2S.-R. O. Dunn &
Co. 'a 'Weekly ltevlew of Trade tomorrow
Ylll say: .
Confidence la returning, but conservatism
U still much in evidence, oepei lully in
manufacturing. Mills and factories are
only operated to fill orders, no acoumula
tlon o flock being permitted ponding
riore fettled conditions. Some Idle plants
ave already resumed, however, ant In
rnsny casus there ire ample contracts on
hand, but Work i- curtailed because cu.--tomera
request delay as funds are nut
available for fcetllcment. The.', concerns
expect to have machinery In full operatlun
! wlMn the money market liceomes normul,
several are preparing to resume after Jan
uary 1. Hctall trade Is more active, sales
of holiday goods supplementing droillnps In
' staple, merchandise and some western cities
report that wholesale houses aro receiving
Orders of usual size from country mer
I chants for sprlmr dollvery. More olosed
banks have resumed, gold has arrived from
, Europe In larite volume and bank note elr
1 culatlon expands In response to special
I facilities offered by tho treasury. One of
' the best features of the week In this city
, was the practical elimination of the prem
' lum on currency.
; .. Output of first hand steel products has
: declined still further and more pis iron
furnaces are Idle, but the sentiment Is not
demoralized at leading; centers and some
plants will resume next week. Prices re
main comparatively steady although In
many cases the flsnres are wholly nominal
owing; to the absence of new business.
: Shipments are almost entirely confined to
: specifications on old contracts for which
1 quotations were fixed some time ago.
' Prospects are brighter for an early re
sumption of huylnir in the primary mnr
! kets for cotton goods. Stocks In the hands
i of distributors are known to be depleted
, and reduction In work at the mills has
pDvented any accumulation at first hands.
' Meanwhile quotations remain nominally un
! changed and no readjustment Is expected
; until Indications are favorable for a sub

j for India. The price was half a cent
below the last preceding sale of this style
j of cotton goods. There Is stlU delay In
' opening new lines of woolens.
Pcarcltv of heavy weight worsted gives
that division a firmer tone than other
grades and the statistics! position of the
woolen goods market will be strengthened
bv the further reduction of active ma

Conditions are unchanged In the foot
wear Industry. Jobbers throughout the
country purchase only for Immediate ro-
! nnlremcnts and salesmen receive light
orders. Wholesalers at the west take sam

new business In supplementary case lot for

IIRADSTIIKKT'S nEVIICW OP TRADD
Entire Itmlneii Situation Has More
rherfal Appesruee,
NFIW TOR.K, Nov. . Bradatreeta to
morrow will soy:
The Improvement In tho tone of the
nanneial axralis has become widespread
so notnhle. Indeed, as to give a much more
cneerrul appearance to the entire situa
tion. For one thing, the security markets
Iimvi' displayed more evidences of heathy
strength than fur a long time past, the
money market has shown signs of hvnon
lng up, the currency premium has dropped
quite materially close to the vanishing
P 1 r ! t. In fiict and tho expectations are
widely entertained or expre.ed that the
country will be back upon a cosh pay
ment basis In a few weeks. Rut trade is
still quiet the country over, and new buy
ing, owing partly to holiday or.servanccs,
and also to mild weather, which still is
a chack on rt.ill trade. Is small, while In
dustrial operations ure still being restricted.
With tho ea'ng in the money situation
has come a more liberal marketing of tho
c.'iiitrv's products and grain recetpta at
Ii tiTlor markets are certainly larger, part
of which K due no doubt to the greater
strength exhibited by oereals and cot
ton, which in turn primarily reflected the
botter feeling at money markets. Tho
price situation as a whole, 'however, shows
signs of readjustment to the changed con
ditions of demand and live animals, pro
visions and meats and other food prod
ucts have declined quite sharply. The
labrr situation also shows evidences of the
slowing down of Industrial operations.
Railroad traffic Is appreciably smaller than
for many weeks past and the car shortage
evil has disappeared just as the close of
water navigation approaches.
Collections are still poor, with numerous
extensions being asked and In many cases
granted. While the banking situation Is
Improving, loans are not being madi with
ay degree of freedom, and rates are still
prohibitory. At the same time the system
of inland exchange, which has been In
disordered shspe for over a month past,
seems to be again tondlng toward normal,
although there still much noom for
Improvement In that respect. Reports of
especially quiet trade come this week from
lumbfr, privet for which are easier, and
production Is being restricted. The coltort
yarn, leather, wool. Iron ar" steel and
coal trades also note qu' bevond
the normal. The demand l.ioes from
eastern manufacturers has been re-Ttrioted
to hand to mouth orders for Immediate
shipment and there Is no disposition to
order for spring. Curtailment of factory
products Is reported spreading bocauso
of fear of cancellations.

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Nov. 29. (SpnclaL) The Stats
Railway commission met this morning be
hind closed doors with C. EJ. Poena, freight
agent of the Burlington; Charles Lane,
freight agent of the Union Pacific; 3. F.
Miller, freight agrnt of the Northwostorn.
and John L'tt, freight afront of the Rock
Island. Tho railroad men want to raise
freight rates In certain parts of the state
on grain and feedstuff, and from what In
formation loaked out from bohlnd ti e
closed doora. It la a safe guess to make
that the commission will do as tho railroad
men suggested, "'he commission asserts
the railroad mon will not discuss their re
quests publicly, and for that reason the
commission receives them In private and
to avoid the law, which says no one shall
le denlod admission to a hearing before
the commission, the members call these
meetings "informal conferences." The rail
road men say when the Aldrlch bill went
Into efoct In various parts of the state the
railroads had In low rates to feeflTng points.
They still had to make a IB per cent reduc
tion of these already low rates, and for
that reason they drIre permission to boost
rates. In the matter of complaints of dis
crimination In rates. It was explained by
the representative of the Vnlon Paclflo that
this road hail put In effect a schedule of
rates January 1 on Its main line and on Its
branch lines the schedule went into effect
January The Aldrlch bill does not effect
the rates In effect after January 1 i:id bo
fore the passago of the commission bill.
This accounts for the rates on branch lines
In some Instances being higher than on the
main lino. The commission called the at
torney general down to consult with the
railroad men, but for the present the com
mission prefers to keep the object of the
moetlng quiet.

Cook Opposes Junket Expense.
The question of allowing expenses for
junketing trips to state officers and uni
versity attaches to attend conventions and
meetings of various kinds Is being consid
ered by the auditing department and In
the futuro some of the claims may be
turned down. Deputy Auditor H. L. Cook
contends that while these expensive trips
may In some Instances bring a small ben
efit to the different departments, yet It Is
only In line of perfecting the qualifications
of the parties holding positions to fill these
places and give good service for the money
receivod as salary. In other professions
he holds parties attend different functions
that will fit them for satisfactory work In
their different lines. He asks why should
the state be called on to pay these post
graduate expenses. This matter came up
over the expense accounts filed by teach
ers In the State university who had been
to attend meetings In various parts of the
country.
Want Night Agent at Meadow Grove.
A number of Meadow Grove citizens have
petitioned tlte State Railway commission
to compel the Northwestern to keep an
agent at the depot there during the night.
Tha petition sets out that the depot Is
closed at t o'clock In the evening, after
which time seven or eight trains pass
throurh the town. No one Is there to sell
tickets or to check baggage. Stock cannot
be loaded after 8 o'clock and the stork '
train Is usually several hours late and
does not arrive until after the depot Is
closed.
Still Wonts to Help.
Senator Joe Burns has proposed to the
people of Lincoln the construction of a
water system solely for the purpose of
fighting fire In the business section of the
town. Te proposes thst a reservoir be sunk
In Market square sufficiently large, and
thst large mains be extended from that.
The water to be used only for fighting the
flames. He would assess each of the busi
ness houses so much for this purpose and
not tax the city for its cost. His scheme j
has long been dreamed of by Mayor Brown
and. may be, something will come of It. If
It does then the hope of A. E. Sheldon to
get a historical building erected In Lincoln
on the appropriation made by the last leg

Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey
Is an absolutely pure distillation of malted grain; great care being used to
have every kernal thoroughly malted, thus destroying the germ and producing
a predlgested liquid food In the form of a malt essence, which is the most ef
fective tonic stimulant and lnvlgorator known to science; softened by warmth
und moisture Its palattblllty and freedom from Injurious substances rendera
