The Canadian Pacific earnings for the fourth week of March were unusually large, being $536,000, an increase of *73, 000. The regular chartered insurance com- panies hold $,,887,372,854 in fire risks in Canada, and there is $327,814,465 of life insurance in force. Wheat in Chicago is selling at the low- est prices in six months. May sold as low as 69`1.8c. on Monday as against ' 854c. on January 4th last. A large corp of winter wheat is expected this season. The consumption of the cotton mills in the Southern States is placed at 530,- 000 bales to date, against 518,000 bales fin 1896, and 453,000 bales in 1895. Northern mills have taken 1,266,235 bales against 1,260,704 bales last season. There has been an active speculation of late in street railway stocks. Toronto sold up to 74, the highest price for a long time. Increased earnings during March and a belief that the people will vote in favor of Sunday cars have stimulated the demand. The visible supply of wheat in the United States and Canada is now 88,- 612,000 bushels as against 60,822,000 bushels a year ago. The amount on pass- age to Europe is 10,040,000 bushels as against 27,272,000 bushels a year ago. Together the amount is 57,652,000 bushels against 87,594,000 bushels a year a o, a decrease of 29,942.000 bushels. The business situation at Toronto is unchanged. There is a fair volume of trade in wholesale merchandise, but the great drawback is small profits, prices being cut terribly. Merchants are cau- tious and acting slowly. We notice, how- ever, that the imports of free and duti- able goods at Toronto for March show an increase over the same month of the two previous years. There is still much complaint at Mont real regarding general collections, and there is evidently great scarcity of the circulating medium in the country parts, as numerous instances are cited of hither- to cash buyers now taking full credit terms, and of others who never renewed a note now asking indulgences in this respect, In the face of this, however, paper falling due on the 4th inst. in the clothing and dry goods trade, has been better provided for than was anticipated, and ne noteworthy failures are reported as the result of default. R. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review of trade in the United States says: Failures aeported for the first quarter of 1397 number 3,992 against 4,031 last year, with liabilities of $48,007,911, against *57,426,135 last year. The manufacturing failures are slightly fewer in number, and smaller in liabilities than last year, but the trading failures fall a little be- hind those of the corresponding quarter last year in number and very largely in magnitude. The average liabilities for all manufacturing is only $28,800, while the average of all trading concerns is only $7,810 against $10,080 last year, a de- crease which indicates caution in buying and debt creating, Here and There.

"Tell us," they asked him, "if one day the down -trodden British workman were to revolt, would you fire on him?" "Never!" "You're one of the right sort. You must have a drink with us. Three pints, please." After they had drank the soldier's health, one of them casually asked:— "How many men like yourself can we count on 111 your barracks?" "All the band; they will all act as my- self. I play on the big drum, you know," the guardsman quietly remarked as he finished the contents of his glass. Are you a tud ever with corns ?
