The number of failures ceartinues, largoas com.pared with recent yeav, but fortunately the average of liabilitieeis reduced, ami. there has be.rn recently no ithangs of consequence in, the prices of products. The country seems to have adjusted itself to the pres- ent situation, and is producing no more than sufficient to supply current needs, which are greatly reduced in volume, nor are importers ordering as freely as form- erly, which certaialy will render the pro- cess of liquidation more comfortable for them, and eventually more satisfactory to all concerned. There is now a ten- dency on all hands to do bnsiness with smaller stock, and sorting orders are re- ceiving relatively more attention. The low level of prices that prevails renders Canada a favorite market, and conse- quently uur exports eantia.me large. The strength shown here, however, is not a matter of special qualificatima as we are selling in many cases at less than cost. All these indictations point clearly te, one conclusion., and that is that business in- terests have been in a state of suspense because of a well settled feeling of un- certainty, which in some respects ought to be eliminated in the near future. As soon as the uncertainty has been remov- ed there can hardly fail to be a revival i.n manufacturing, etc.., for the simple rea- son that tne present stagnation is too pronouncel for the causes underlying it in Canada to last long. There is nothing radically wrong with the country, and as soon as our beet customers and patrons improve their own even more depressing financial and industrial condition there is nothing to hinder a return to our usual prosperity. Consumption cannot COD; thrue ou the reduced. scale of the present time. and distribntors' stocks are so de- pleted that they will have tube replenish- ed. 'With the weather continuing =- favorable, which, in addition to the con- dition of the markets, interferes with farmers' deliveries itt country towns, there is but little le pe of immediate im- provement in collections. The money market is unchanged., n ith. a slight ten- dency to drop to 4 and. 41; per cent. in larger centres. The annual reports of our banks fortunately give but a slight indication of having been effeeted by the depression. It is reported front Ottawa that the Government ef the United States has in contemplation the erection of extensive works fox. the smelting of nickel ores, which will give a great impulse to min- ing in the Suabury dietriet.

This will result in a double taxation, and, as pointed out, will tend to discourage colonial investments. A reeiprocal elites nation. of such fax has been suggested, and is worthy of consideration, that is if not found to be unconstitutional. Mean- while the colonial agents in London de- clare that the proposals are a funda- mental departure from the principals of colonial constitutions. The field of long-distance electric rail- roading shows itself very attractive to in- • vention. and capital. To show what is being done, at this moment only a few links are wanting in it complete network between New York and Philadelphia, a distance of nearly100milee. These links are actually being constructed, and when they are finished both passengers and, freight can be carried between the two centers by electricity, over roads which represent a vastly less investment than steam roads, and whose cars cam run in. - dependently every minute of the day, un- hampered:by schedules. It is needless to say that, while such it net -work is useless for purposes of swift travel, it must very soon absorb a very large amount of minor and what may be called reticular traffic. A. vital point is the great quickness in travel in the electricity system. The trolley ears will piek up a man at any point, drop him at his exaet place, and charge him only ten. or fifteencents, where the steam road has been collecting forty or fifty cents. Furthermore, in the matter of speed, the electric cars can give a good accounting, as they are equal in most eases to a speed of twenty-five or thirty miles an hour outside of the city limits, a rate which the ordinary steam road rarely equal and seldom surpass. It is probably not widely known, says The Electric Review, that only seven out of the seventeen trans-Atlantic cables are in use, ten having given out from various causes. Estimating the cost of each cable at $8,000,000, here is an irreclaim- able investment of $30,000,000 safely buried beneath the ocean to a depth ranging from a few fathoms. to over five miles. Live Cattle Trade at an End.. The latest reports from London makes it absolutely certain that live cattle from Canada will not be admitted to inland Britieh towns this year. It is almost settled, indeed, that the privilege so long enjoyed will never be restored. Why, then, is the establishment of a dead meat industry, as a substitute for the trade no longer possible, nut taken up in earnest? This is a most important matter. It is of greater interest than the issues involved in the campaign over which. the Province is so much excited at the present time. The Board of Trade bhould take the iaitiative in giving the proposed scheme a start. well AN'S SENTENCE. Five -Veers and Six 'months in New York State Prison—New Trial Asked For. Erastus Wiman appeared before Justice Ingram in the criminal court, New York, Wednesday morning, to receive his sen- tence for forgery.

The 'house is (=ivied by Catharine Hitching who also runs au intelligence office, .lienton celled there Friday morning but did not remain. The same evening he called there again and asked for a room. It Wasgiven him, and he was not seen again until found dead. Mrs, Hitching learned. early•Saturday. evening that Benton was still in his room, and about six o'clock she went to the door but weld not get in. Listening she heard. the man breathing heavily and decided to call it policeman. Patrolman Smith came to the • house shortly before ten o'clock., and after hear- ing the facts he broke open. the door. Benton was found lying in bed, bat life was extinct. On a table was found a bot- tle labelledmorphine, which had been put up by a chug firm in Deffalo, and it is Supposed that Benton took a dose of the poison. The dead man evidently had been working in that city, as there were several pawn tickets from there in his pockets. He left no note to explain his action, and Coroner Beateher was called to investigate the case. Benton has hall a rather checkered career.

Mrs. Hartley and Ling were arraigned in the Felice Court at Brantford on Tues- day morning charged with the murder of Mr. Hertley. Mrs. Hartley was heavily attired in mourning and wore a deep veil, through which it was possible to catch a gleam of a white looking face. Her general bearing was very composed. When she was placed in the dock she sat in a three -cornered position, with her back as far as possible towards the crowd, and she seemed anxious to escape the scores of eyes which were turned upon. her. The hired man, Lill& looked very jaainty, and he was spruced up in good style, with a white collar and tie. There was a dead silence when the police magis- trate read over the charge to them of fel- oniously and of malice aforethought mur- dering one Caleb Hartley in the Township of Burford. To the awful indictment each replied, "Not guilty." Ling's re- sponse could be heard, but that of Mrs. Hartley was almost inaudible. The only important new evidence was that of F. Hartley, who swore that about two years ago Mrs. Hartley askecl him to purchase some "rough on rats" for her to kill gets which she said were in the stere. She asked him when he returned to give the package to n.o one except herself. He got the poison, and Mrs. Hartley said: The reason I didn't avant yen to give the roughson, rats' to anyone except me is because the girl is foolish enough to open the package and feste the contents and she might poison herself." At the close Mrs. Hartley's lawyer offered bail up to th.e amount of $20,000, but it was refused and, the case adjourned. A singular and fatal occurrence took place at St. john,N.B., Monday morning.

One morning when Benjamin Franklin was busy in the pressroom on his news- paper, it lounger stepped into the book- store and spent an hour or more looking over the books. Finally he seemed to settle upon one, and asked the clerk the price. "One dollar," the clerk replied. "Olio dollav," echoed the lounger. "Can' t you take less than. that?" "One dollar is She price," the clerk ants wered.. The would-be purehaser looked over the books awhile and. inquired: "Is Mx. Franklin in?" "Yes; he's busy in the printing office," the elerk "Well, I want to see him," said the man, The clerk told Mr. Franklin that a eentleman was in the store waiting to see him, Franklin soon appeared, and the Ammeter said "What is the lowest, Mr. Franklin, that you eilat take for that book?"
