HOW CAME THEY TO DIE Tea ateerage Passengers Died On the Vaaniman New York, Jan. 30. -Ten steerage pas- sengers died at sea on the Re:le-Stem Line steamer VaderIatd, which arrived here from Antwerp Jan. 24. The cause of death was given as congestion of the lunge and pneumonia, and the vessel was passed at quarantine. Today seven hundred steerage passengers were net permitted to land when the steamer came up to her dock, and by order of the health officer the Vaderlana was sent back to quarantine. Among the questions which will come before the ineestioating board are; "Were the passengers on the Vaderland properly fed r "Did the employees of the steamship eonipaey sell the steerage passengers food, knowing that the pas- sengers could not at the eteerage rations?" "Did the steerage passengers receive proper mantel attention?" Of the tett steerage passengers wee died eight were buried at sea. Autop- sies were performed on the other two bodies, and Dr. Doty has ordered com- plete bacteriological examinations to be made in each ease. The Vaderland sailed from Antwerp on Jan. 14. The first death occurred tee days later, three died on the 2h, three ou the 22nd, one on the a3rd and two on the 24th.

I Bra stree ft on a Bradstreet's advices from Montreal e. say: There are signs of improvement in the volume of wholesale trade here, although business in most lines has still ituiet tone as is usual at this time of the year. Oraers for delivery of sprin goods are commencingto come forwa.r i in fair volume, but it s not likely there will be a general movement in this re- gard untit towards the end of -next month. Retail merchants iu the coun- try have been carrying light stocks, and as the movement for seasonable goods is more active there is some increase in the.volunte of sorting orders. 1, Toronto reports to Bradstreet's say: The campaign consequent neon the Pro- vincial elections has in a considerable manner interfered with wholesale trade during the past week. But, notwitIn standang this, there bas been ,some in- erease in activity in marry all lines. In dry goods the volume or trade is steadily 'rowing, and a good business is being done on account of the spring trade. Values of farm products are maintain- ing their petition. Wheat, ana hogs have appreciated very considerable-, and oats are Imre bringing as high as 40 cents a busbel. The farmers are making heavy deliveries- tina the prospect* for all lines of trade are bright. Leathers end sugars •ebow another advance during the past week-. Collectiona are generally fair to good. At Qifebec, trade conditions are nor- mal. Some wholesalers report receiving fair orders 'from their traveller's. Sonne storekeepers are curtailing their orders Ilemittancee show no improvement. Out - 1 side of a few, manufacturers are no ibusy. In some lines city trade is fairly :wave. Winnipeg reports to tradetreetee say .! There is every evidence teat the sp . t trade here will open out with 'unitsua activity. Trade in most lines has been i quiet during the pain week or 'eter rut there ie a 'better tome in tee air. The wholesale houses here are tak ing fictive measures, to keep as tench of the trade of the West, as is possible away from Eastern lionses and with the 'advantages of positiem on their tsid e it is not surprising if the volume of trade done by Eastern wholettalers here should decline.
