Ca's weekly review of trade says:
Tho alarm about cholera hits van
lslieil, and trndo In every tllrcuMnn
nhows ull tho Improvement that was ex
pectcd. The south In a little dull Iks
cause cotton Is low In price ami late,
but a little Improvement has been Been
during tho past week. In a few quar
ters at tho west fanners are holding
back wheut for higher prices, ho that
collections arc retarded, but the general
tenor of advices In exceedingly favor
able. Tho volume of business continues
larger than u year ago. Collections are
exceptionally good on tho whole, and
although money Is Innetive mid In
increasing demand at nearly all points,
tho supply is ample for all legitimate
-jeeds. (Jold exports have ceased, for-
olgn exchange has declined, and the
money market Is at present without
disturbing features.
.Speculation Is not on tho whole
active enough to have a disturbing in--tfeuc'a.
Wheat has recovered lj)(e, but
alefc cre have been only OjOOO.OOO
f" bushels. Western receipts In four days'
havo been 5,700,000 bushels, while tho
exports from Atlantic ports have, .been
033,000 bushels. Foreign advices 'no
longer promise an unusual demand.
Corn lias declined 8Jc, and oats Jfe.
Speculation In cotton has been larger,
sales reaching 780,000 bales, and the
price has lcen advanced I5-1G by the
covering of tthort sales.
Hog products are a shade stronger,
Init oil Is xti lower, and in coffee, spocu
Jation has advanced tho price 1 'e.
,'lluslucss at Jioston is sound and largo
In volume. Improvement U seen In

'grtfator than lust year. Iluslness at
Cleveland Is Improving in nearly
ull departments, and especially
in, rolled products and in him-
ber, which has advanced SJ.00
toMper 1,000. At Detroit business is
Increasing In dry goods, "drugs and
tshderf. General trado at Chicago ox-
-coeds last yeur's for tho same week,
-with good prospects. At St Louis,
trado lucreascs with largo distribution
of gmuls, a f reo movement of grain, and
country buyers in larger number than
usual.
Huslncss is healthy at Milwaukee,
-very active at Omaha and shows a
marked increase at St. Paul. At Don-
-ver trado Is very satisfactory but no
improvement Is seen at Salt Luke.
Receipts of cattle ami wheat are
heavy at Kansas City. At Memphis
'itrado is improving and tit Now Orleans
-cotton is in better demand and sugar
utronger, active. Pig iron is firmer,
somo Alabama furnaces advancing tho
prlee 25 cents, but bar iron Is slightly
easier, somo slackening Is seen In plates
and on the wholo tho prospect for tin
Ished products is not qulto so favorable.
Largo sales of copper at l( aro re

China has nlso been made. Tho procla
mation says that tho (Senry law de
grades Chinese, and if obeyed will put

"Wo do not want Chinese to obey It,"
lays the proclamation. "In making

Tho Call publishes a letter from tho
presidents of tho Chinese Six Companies
to Collector of Internal Heventio Quinn,
Bent in response to nn inquiry us tti
whether they had advised Chinese la
borers not to comply with thu law.
l mv sl to ,tno collector they have lh-
sued a circular advising Chinese labor
ers that the law Is unconstitutional and
cannot bo enforced and that they havo
suggested to tho laborers that they tlo
not comply with tho law. Tho presi
dents say their circular was based upon
tho advice of their attorneys.
In support of tho assertion that tho
law is unconstitutional they say that
tho law makes no distinction between
Chinese who arc aliens and Chinese
who aro citizens of tho United Slates;
that a eltl.en of tho Chinese race is
entitled to the samo rights und priv
ileges as those ot tho Caucasian race.
UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
.TuiIrii (luthrln UnrU tho Civil KlghU Act
llf KlIUHlk.
Toi'KKA, Kan., Sept 21. Hotel and
theater managers, railroad companies
and other public purveyors, will no
longer stand in awo of tho civil rights
act passed by tho legislature of Kansas
in IH71. It was declared unconstitu
tional by Judge Guthrlo of the district
court, in tho ease of the state vs. De
Moss it Armstrong, proprietors of tho
St Nicholas hotel, this city.
It was alleged In the information that
tho defendants are proprietors of tho
St Nicholas hotel; that ou tho 4th day
of August, 1892, J. L Leonard, a col
ored man, called for his breakfast at
the hotel and demanded that ho should
bo given a seat In the dining room; that
tho defendants offered to furnish him
for his breakfast anything thoy had in
thu lioiiso at tho lunch counter, which
he refused to accept, ami demanded that
ho should bj permitted to tako a seat
with tho other guests at a table In tho
dining room, which was refused.
DoMots & Armstrong wero prosecuted
under an act entitled "An- net to pro
vide for tho protection of ultb.ens In
their clyll and public rights," approved
February 21, 1S74. Tho uet provides
that if the owncrt or .agents in charge
of ttnj' inn, hotel tir boarding house, or
any place of entertainment or amuse
ment shall make any distinction on tie
count of race, color or previous condi
tion of servitude, tho person ho offend
ing bhall be deemed guilty of a misde
meanor. Hits court hold that tho act of the
legislature was unconstitutional for the
reason that the language of the uet and
clnss of persons intended to bo protect
ed by tho net was broader than tho title
pf tho uet.
The tltlo of tho act is "For tho pro
tection of citizens in their civil and
public rights." Tho provisions of the
