OUS PHILADELPHIA LETTE&, j
Hews From all Quarters Condensed—
What the Workers Are Doings -
Business Prospects.
Philadelphia, Pa.,
August 2, lS<)2.
A careful study of commercial and
industrial statistics for the month of
July, so tar as published certainly
shows an improvement wide and deep
as compared with (he corresponding
period of last year| At the same
time, bankers are .somewhat trou-
bled, not over things as they are, but
as they might be. It is rather strange
to find fears of this] kind in these
quarters under the circumstances.
Foresighted bankers for a year past
haW at times intimated that the
necessities ot the country within a
short time, might and probably
would develop beyond existing
means of supply. It is this which is
causing some bankers and money
lenders anxiety.
On the surface everything is satis-
factory. It is true the country is ex-
panding rapidly in all directions,
and that more of everything will be
consumed, and that a greater supply
of money will be needed. The
banking interests, however, are
managing their interests most credit-
ably. The surplus reserve is now
over $23,000,000, above the legal
limit, which fact shows that the
banks are equal to any emergency.
Business men do nbt complain of
actual stringency, or any lack of ac-
commodations. Foreign banks are
still hoarding gold. The demand is
being made in newspaper quarters
that the government ought to take
steps to bring back as much of the
gold as a favorable trade balance
will allow. This feeling will grow.
It is not to our credit that all the fi-
nancial ability so. tar as international
trade is concerned, should be on the
other side.
The general business of the coun-
try is in excellent condition. A
moderate r.evival of trade is in pro-
gress. In the iron trade a slight ad-
vance is taking place. In lumber
there is an improvement in distribu-
tion. In coal the output is in excess
of last year. Railroad returns are
favorable, and for July there is a
slight increase in net earnings over
July last year. The legislative ac-
tion on the silver question has given
confidence to business interests.
In industrial channels there is evi-
dence of the coming of a heavy de-
mand. Engineering operations are
being pushed forward vigorously in
all sections of the counti^. Collec-
tions are being made" with more
promptness than for twelve months
past. Retailers are buying with
even more care than heretofore, and
are refusing to stock up with goods
very tar in advance. This applies
10 neaily all lines of goods and mer-
chandise sold. The policy is a wise
one, and will, in the end, result in a
strengthening of credits.
Wholesalers and jobbers are com-
batting this tendency in their struggle
to secure and hold the largest pos-
sible amount of trade, but the retail-
ers are acting with prudence and
foresight, and there will be gains on
both sides when the wi-er policy of
shorter credits and light stocks, is
firmly established. This course is
tne outgrowth with which deliveries
are now made by railroads. 'It is
also the result ol the very complete
system established by traveling sales-
men of making frequent visits. It
looks like a small matter, but it is
an important one, in view of the re-
sults that will be eventually reached.
Bankers, manufacturers and mid-
dlemen generally in eastern cities
have for years been verting them-
selves with the problem of long
credits with the post dating of ac-
counts, and so on. It° is lather
strange that the remedies, or some
of them,j for this condition of things
are being taken by retailers them-
selves. These remedies will not act
suddenly or widely, but it is evident
from the course things are taking
that a much better and safer system
of doing business will be gradually
established.
In relaUon to the possible strin-
gency of money during the coming
autumn it may be said that the dan-
gers are probably overestimated.
No speculative movement is likely
to occur. The west owtls tb'e east
less .money than it ever di^l, although
its book accounts are heavier. The
banks throughout the west are grad-
ually gaining in funds. Farmers
continue to reduce their indebted-
ness. Storekeepers ate able to col-
lect more and more o. their old
debts. This recuperation is one of
the most encouraging signs ot the
times. Traveling agents speak par-
ticularly of it, and find in it one of
the strongest encouragements for an
expanding trade in the near future.
The fact has been pointed out here-
tofore that production is now more
evenly regulated to demand. This
evenly balanced condition of things
will continue.
While new industries are multi-
plying in all directions, their expan-
sion is under a certain control
which it is hard to point out. There
is less danger of over-production
than ever. The compact industrial
organization that exists everywhere
is almost absolute protection, against
undue enterprise in any industrial
channel. It is throughout the great
west that merchants and manufactur-
ers are finding so much encourage-
ment. Traders are multiplying more
rapidly there than elsewhere, and
new-stores are springing up at every
cross-road.
The promise of another abundant
crop is giving the farmers much en-
couragement.

Fossils of the Staked Plains—Horses Ho
Larger Than Dogs.
"
Prof. W. F. Cummintf, assistant'
state geologist, is at home tor a few i
days from the Panhandle country, j
where he was for the past three
months making a collection of the j
formation which constitutes the
upper strata ot the staked plains,
lie says the strata consists of three
principal divisions of the tertiary,
the lowest being the Loup Fork,
which is well known by the great
number and variety ot vertebrate
fossils found on the Loup Fork
river, and extends as far south as the
Palo Duro canyon in Texas. A fine
collection ot the characteristic fos-
sils, he says, were collected by him
a few miies north of Clarendon, in
Donley county, consisting in part ot
seven species of horses, two each ot
camels, rhinoceroses and mastodons,
and several species ot cormorants.
Some ot the horses were the primi-
tive three-toed species, and were not
larger than the common dog.
Above the Loup Fork beds, says
Prof. Cummins, come the Blanco
beds, which were first described by
him trom Blanco canyon in the sec-
ond annual report of the state geo-
logical survey, and which supply a
heretofore missing link in the tertiary
strata. The fossils were principally
collected from the vicinity of Mount
Blanco, in Crosby county, consisting
of horses, three species of masto-
dons, camels, antelope, magalonyx
and three species ot land tortoise.
One of the specimens of tortoise
was as large as the largest sea turtles
now living on the sea coast, it being
more thari three feet across the skull.
The highest part of the Staked
.Plains on the Tulle canyon belongs
to the very latest tertiary times. The
fossils collected there consist ot ele-
phants, horses, camels and several
small rodents and turtles. Associ-
ated with these vertebrate fossils at
the top ot the plains are several
species of fresh-water shells that ar^
now tound living in the stream in
the bottom ot the canyon, 400 feet
below, and one species of which has
continued to exist in the, shallow
lakes found on the plains.
These fossils have all been
shipped to Prof. E. D. Cope, the
most eminent vertebrate paleontolo-
gist of the United States, at Phila-
delphia, who has volunteered to
identify and describe them and to
have them arranged for exhibition,
when they will be returned to Aus-
tin and placed in the state collection
in the capitol building.
Prof. Cummins adds: "Every-
one will remember to have seen in
the springs and creeks an occasional
specimen of what is commonly
known as a water dog, a little, cold,
^limy, naked-skinned reptile. In
same of the fresh-water lakes on the
Staked Plains they occur in innum-
erable numbers. They are as thick
as tadpoles in a frog pond, and at
times of rain crawl around atid be-
come as great a nuisance as the
plague of frogs in Egypt."—Fort

LETTER FROM L. J0HE8.
Siring His Impressions of the Texas Pan-
handle Country.
p/ ladi'ko Canon. July 2S, 1S92.
Eoileok Gazetteer:
\In camp, six miles northwest of
Cinon City, upper Panhandle.
We set our tent on the 24th and
will remain for some time, it con-
ditions and circumstanccs will admit.
We left Denison June 19th on a
broiling hot day, and it has been
broiling hot ever since—except to-
day, which is cool. Yesterday we
had one of those sudden rain-storms
which come 'almost without warn-
ing, and disappear quite as rapidly.
For a half hour it poured, and the
wind seemed determined to lift
everything trom the surface and
send it whirling into space. We
clung to the tent-poles like grim
death, determined if they went to go
with them. All at once the storm
ceased, the sheet of water disap-
peared, and in an hour afterward
you would not have known it rained,
had not the ground been decently
moist.
From Denison to the Cross-Tim-
bers, I never saw finer crops, surely
the oats will yield 50 bushels to the
acre, wheat 25 to 30 and corn is
simply immense. Beyond they are
rather slim, exqspt 15 or 20 miles
around Wichita Falls they are rath-
er good. From there on the drouth
has ruined the crops. Vernon, Chil-
dress, Memphis, Clarendon. Wash-
burne and Amarillo are good towns.
At Memphis,| we ran across our old
frietfd Johnson (formerly of the Eve-
ning journal.) He has nice prop-
erty, and is editor and proprietor of
the Hall County Herald ; his plant
and property are paid for, and he is
doing well. At Chilicotha, we
strike the gvpsum water and for one
hundred miles there is no other. It
bitter, and tew can drink it.

The Grand Canon of the Colorado
river, in Arizona, is now for the first time
accessible to tourists. A regular stage
line has been established trom Flagstaff,
Arizona, on the Atlantic & Pacific rail-
road, making the trip from Flagstaff to
the most imposing part of the canon in
less than twelve hours. The stage tare
for the round trip is only $20, and meals
and comfortable lodgings are provided
throughout the trip at a reasonable price.
The view of the Grand Canon afforded at
the terijiinus of the stage route is the
most stupendous panorama known in na-
ture. There is also a trail at this point
leading down the canon wall, more than
6000 feet vertically, to the river below.
The descent ot the trail is a grander ex-
perience than climbing the Alps, for in
the bottom qf this ttrrific jnd sublime
chasm are hundreds of mountains greater
than any of the Alpine rangeil
A book describing the trip tlb the Grand
Canon, illustrated by many lull-page en-
gravings from special photographs, and
turnishiriK all needful information, may
be obtained tree upon application to John
J. Byrne, 7^3 Monadnock Block, Chicago,

Carnegie, Quay, Pinkerton and
Protection are four words that are
being handled just now by the news-
papers of the country in a way to
make each and all of them more
odious than the name of Benedict
Arnold.
The iron mills ot the countrv are
shut down and thousands of people
are suffering because Ajndrew Car-
negie refuses to pay his employes
wages which,he can Well afford to
pay and still make a handsome pr9f-
it on his $30,000,000 capital. And
the iaw steps in and prohibits
Americans purchasing iron else-
where during the prevalence of high
prices which this shut down will
cause. Truly "protection" is a
great thing for Andrew Carnegie.
The Cleveland Plaindealer tells
the story of the effect of a high
tariff upon the production of sheep
and wool, by saying: "The 7,^00,-
000 sheep in Ohio in 1S67, when this
tariff went into effect, have been re-
duced now to 3,700,000."
If Gov. Pattison ever had a doubt
that he was doing right in waiting
for the local authorities in Alleghany
county to act he can have it no long-
er, in view of his condemnation by
the monopolistic repubican press.
A better indorsement of the wisdom
ot his course could not be wished
for.
The North American crank is pre-
paring tor an innings at the World's
Fair. The tetotaller—a well known
variety ot the species—has already
filed his protest against the sale of
malt or alcoholic liquors anywhere
on the exposition grounds, in order
that we may display to the admiring
gaze of visitors that peculiar pro-
duct of prohibition known as the
jamaica ginger drunkard. The sab-
bath keeping crank follows, with a
demand that the gates be closed on
the day of the week on which they
should be kept open at all hazards ;
and now the purity crank, in the
person of Hon. W. H. Butler, ari-
ses from his seat in congress with a
proposal that the World's Fair shall
make itself the laughing-stock of
both continents by draping every
plastic or pictoral representation of
the nude human figure.
Mr. Frick is rapidly recovering

Personally, I do not dislike it, be-
sides it is healthful, and is such

they attempt to cross the jip belt.
From Iowa Park, 12 miles north-
west of Wichita, the crops are a
failure, corn where planted and
which came through the ground,
looks green, is about three feet high,
without a sign of a shoot or nubbing
on the stalks. They sow sorghum
lor fodder, which looks green and
makes roughness. Wheat is about
12 inches high and is unrept, as the
grain is of no account. This side
the Cross -Timbers we met the
prairie dogs, and for two-hundred
miles there was nothing but prairie
dogs, jack-rabbits and owls, all mix-
ed up, inhabiting the same holes,
by the roadside, in the roads up to!
the towns, in the towns, everywhere,
until they become a nuisance, and
you become sick and- tired of their
eternal yelp. As to the roads, there
are none finer in the world. Solid,
firm and almost as level as a house-
floor. Timber is out of the ques-
tion, you may travel tor days with-
out as mnch as seeing a switch,
much less trees, nothing but the bla-
zing sun and parched earth. Yet
this Panhandle is the coming coun-
try. The soil is fine, the water is
the best in Texas, although you
have to dig from a hundred to two-
hundred feet, and when you strike it
(which you are sure to do) you have
an inexaustable supply of pure free-
stone water. As the country grows
older, the shade trees, now being
planted, will relieve the monotony,
and it will be the prettiest, as well
as the best part of Texas.
Paladuro Canon, on which we are
camped, is a wonder in itself. It
is from one to four miles wide and
from one lo five-hundred feet deep.
You approach it in any direction
upon a level plain, right up to the
brink, where it pitches off to a depth
of tour or five hundred feet, with a
belt ot green trees bordering the
banks ot the stream, which runs
through its center. At this point it
is a running stream with numerous
springs of fine soft water.
You may hear fiom me later,

Kenzie, with a company of United
States cavalry, made a dash over

matter cooled down without an ap-
peal to arms.

Grayson county was named; in
honor of Peter Grayson, a tarnous
citizen of the state during the days
of the republic. The county was
organized in 1S46 and according to
the census ot 1S70 had 14,442 in-
habitants of which number 12,597
were white and 2,145 colored. The
assessed valuation of property was
$2,I20,S60.

The present stock law with refer-
ence to sheep, hogs and goats, was
passed by the thirteenth legislature
and in substance is as follows: Upon
application ot fifty voters, free hol-
ders of the county, to the magistrate
at the county seat, a vote may be
taken and if the law be adopted by
a three-fifths majority then it shall
be of effect—compeling all parties
to keep hogs, sheep and goats under
herd or keep them up; and provides
that any fence in such county of
plank, eighteen inches apart shall be
a lawlul tence, and the owner ot
any stock tresspassing shall he liable
for damage and the stock held to pay
damage, unless released.

There is more catarrh in this section of
the country than all other diseases put
together, and until the last few years was
supposed to be incurable. For a great
many years doctors pronounced it a local
disease, and prescribed local remedies,
and by constantly tailing to cure with
local treatment pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be a con-
stitutional disease, and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney &
Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitu-
tional cure on the market. It is taken
internally in doses trom ten drops to a
teaspoonful. It acts directly on the blood
and mucous surfaces of the system. They
offer one hundred dollars for any case it

It appears that, despite the efforts
of Manager Frick, of the Carnegie
mills, to conceal the cost of the
manufacture of a ton ot steel at
Homestead, the figures have been
obtained, and they show that the
mill owners make a profit of from
$14 to $16 a ton. The large profits
made by the company on every ton
of steel accounts for the refusal of
Mr. Frick to inform the congres-
sional committee as to the cost of
manufacture per ton.

TEXAS BEAT8 CALIFORNIA.
The Gazetteer lhas received a
private letter from Col. Sam Cook,
dated Sari pranciscO, Cal., July 20,
from which it takes the liberty to
make the following extracts:
"Please change the address of my
paper .from this place to San Diego
Cal, After trying this place one
month,' notwithstanding it's cool
enough every day for my overcoat.
I am tired, too much sameness in
the climate, cold and dusty all the
time. The west wind keeps the
dust moving to your gTeat disgust.
After trying southern California, I
will go to Portland, the National
Park, Minneapolis and Chicago.
Will reach Denison about the mid-
dle of September. We had an
earthquake last ni^ht, and I felt like
I was not safe in a four story brick.
If I had been in a trame building, I
would have felt better. Don't fail
to send your paper as I am always
glad to get it. The more I see of
this country the better I like our
state. The boom has hurt Califor-
nia, it will take years to redeem it,
Good place to spend some money ;
you get value received for what you
pay out."
The Mexican government will
exhibit a large and valuable collec-
tion of Aztei relics at the World's

The Gainesville Register remarks
that Tom Brown, of Grayson, sup-
ports Mr. Hogg because he firmly
believes Hoeg is the greatest states-
man under the sun, next to Tom
Brown, but as hie gets $5000 as a
fee for helping the attorney general
defend the commission before the
federal couit at Dallas the warmth
ot his enthusiasm is considerably
augmented.
Michigan is one of the most en-
thusiastic of the states in the prepar-
ation of its World's Fair exhibit,
The state's appropriation is $ioo,-

nounced that the total sum contrib-
uted toward making an exhibit by
the state, counties, cities and private
individuals will reach fully $500,-

AN E88AY ON MAN.
Man that is born of women is
sniall potatoes and few in a hill.
He rises up to-day and flourishes
like a ragweed, and to-morrow or
next day the undertaker hath him.
He goeth forth in the morning warb-
ling like a lark and is knocked out
in one round and two seconds. In
the midst ot lite he is in debt, and
the tax collector pursues him where-
e^er he goeth. The banister of life
is full of splinters, and he sliJeth
down with rapidity. He coraeth
home at eventide and meeteth
the wheelbarrow in his, path. It
ri^eth up and smiteth him to the
earth and falleth upon him, and run-
neth one of its legs into his ear.
In the gentle spring time he put-
teth on his summer clothes, and a
blizzard striketh him far from home
and filleth him with cuss words and
rheumatism. He buyeth a watch-
dog, and when he cometh home
from the lodge the watch-dog treeith
him, and sitteth near him until rosy
morn. He goeth to the horse trot
and betteth his money on the brown
mare, and the bay gelding with a
blaze face winneth. He marrieth a
red-headed heiress with a wart on
her nose, and the next day the pa-
rental ancestor goeth under with a
crash and great; liabilities, and com-
eth home to live with his beloved
son-in-law.—Heywood.

let us advise you, ladies.
We again feel called upon to do the
female portion of our reader* the favor of
drawing their attention to the publica-
tions ot Messrs. A. McDowell Si Co., 4
and 6 VVrst 14th Street, New York. This
firm import and publish the American
edition ot the Parisian fashion journals,
"La Mode de Paris," 35c; "Paria Album
of Fashion," 35c; "La Courtyiiere,"
30c, and "La Mode," 15c. These books
have been favorably commented upon by
us in previous writings, but in considera-
tion ot the many improvements we have
noticed we do not hesitate to speak ot
them as the first journals of their kind to
be tound on the bookstands. Their Sep-
tember numbers will contain all the latest
tail styles at least a month earlier than
any other fashion paper. The plates in
McDowell's journals are not reproduc-
tions, but are the work of French artists,
done in Paris. Send tor sample copy.
table talk.
A magazine that tells us how to live
and how to enjoy life while we have it
ought to be entitled to much more than
an ordinary amount of consideration and
support; the great success ot Table Talk
is therefore not a matter tor wonder. Its
recipes for the kitchen, its instructions
and .suggestions in matters relating to
household management and economy, and
the thoroughly practical way in which
they are spread before the housewife are
able proofs that it really is what it claims
to be—a household magazine. The Au-
gust number is now ready and full ot sea-
sonable suggestions that the housekeeper
will be the loser for not reading. Pub-
lished by the Table Talk Publishing Co.,
1113 Chestnut street, Philadelphia. $1 a
year; 10c single copy.
uncle remus.
Children and old folks, too, will be
glad to know that Joel Chandler Harris,
author of the famous Uncle Remus
stories, has written a new series of tales
{elating to the furthei doings and sayings
Of the animals. Who in the south has
not read about the cuteness of Brer Rab-
bit, the slyness ot Brer Fox and the blun-
ders of Brer Bear? Who does not re-
member the inimitable style ot old Uncle
Remus in telling these homely stories of
negro folk lore to "the little boy" who
listened and wondered and never grew
tired? In fact, Uncle Remus is quite as
fixed a character in childhood fancy as
Aladan or Robinson Crusoe. The new
stories are to be published in Texas ex-
clusively by the Galveston-Dallas Sunday
and Weekly News The first appeared
Sunday, July 31, and in the Weekly
Thursday, August 1. Each story is com-
plete, and each will be worth putting in
the scrapbook.
An Epidemio of Bloody Flux.
La-t summer the flux raged here to a
fearful extent. About five miles north of
here at the Whiteside graveyard there
were five victims of this dreadful disease
buried in one day. The doctors could do
nothing with the disease. When my
family were taken I went to Walter
Brothers, of Waltersburg, and told them
the situation. They said give Chamber-
lain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhara Rem-
edy; that they had sent out several hun-
dred bottles into the infected district, and
"every day we hear how this medicine is
curing them. So far we have not heard
of its failing in a single instance." I
went to giving it and could soon see the
good effects, and a cure was the result.
Anyone in doubt about these facts may
write to me.—L. C. Ellis, Rock, Pope
Co., Illinois. For sale by T. B. Hanna &

John R. Oldham, an uncle to W.
M. Oldham of this city, died at his
home in Independence, Mo., on
Friday, the 22d of July, in his 91st
year. Mr. Oldham was born in
Kentucky in iSoi, and in 1835
moved to Jackson county, Missouri,
where he resided up to his death
His fathei was in the war of the rev-
olution, while he (John Oldham)
was in that of 1812.
A company has been formed in
Chicago to distribute papers auto-
matically, and thus do away with
newsboys on the cars. Distributing
will be accomplished bv a machine
of the nickel-plate-slot order.
A San Francisco daily tried this
scheme, but one day's test was suffi-
cient. The friends ot the industri-
ous little newsboys threatened to
boycott the paper, and the machines
were removed trom the streets.
The San Angelo Standard asks:
"It protection affords plenty ot work
at good wages, where are all these
men coming from that are taking
the places of the 2000 strikers at
Homestead ?"
Cholera infantum has lost its terrors
since the introduction ot Chamberlain's
Colic, Cholera and Diarrhcea Remedy.
When that remedy Is used and the treat-
ment as d rected with each bottle is fol-
lowed a cure is certain. Mrs. Fanny
Lauderdale, of Rock, Pope Co., 111., says
it cured h'er baby of cholera infantum,
and, she thinks, saved its life. A. W.
Walter, a prominent merchant at Walters-
burg, 111., says it cured his baby boy of
cholera infantum after several other rem-
edies had failed.' The child was so low
that ,-he seemed almost beyond the aid
ot human hands or reach of any medi-
cine," but Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera
ahd Diarrhoea Remedy fcured him. 25

A Parallel Case.
Johnson Sides, an Indian interpre-
ter of the Piute tribe, whose name
was so frequently connected with
the bad lands and the Messiah craze,
has appeared before the board of
pardons to plead the case of the
ybung Indian who killed the witch
doctor in Elko county some years
a^o. He made a long statement of
the case in good Englisli, and was
asked l>y one of the board why the
kijllmg took place with such little
cejremony. He drew himself up and
reiplied: "For the same reason
thjat your people used to kill witch-
es." This piece of repartee took
nimediate effect, and in a abort
<idne the prisoner was a free man.

WB1TIN08 6U00 TEA &8 OLD.
Probably the oldest known speci-
mens of recorded language in the
woild to-day are the inscriptions on
the door sockets and bricli stamps
found at Niffer by the Babylonian
exploration expedition of the univer-
sity of Pennsylvania, witch has re-
cently returned. The brick stamps,
which are of yellow clay, about 4x5
inches and 1 inch in thickness, bear
the name and titles of Ring Sargon
and his son Narim-Sin, who lived
about 3800 B. Cm and tl?ey were
taken from the mound which covers
the site of ancient NippuruJ with its
famous temple of Baal. The expe-
dition also tound many other objects
of interest, such as clay tablets con-
taining contracts, lists of, goods',:
temple incomes, art fragments and
images sold by the tern die fakirs.
These throw Oiuch light cp the his-
tory of the people as opposed to
that of the kings, and the work ot
the expedition carries Babylonian
records back 1000 years, to a time
of which practically nothing has
hitherto been known. The antiqui-
ties tound are now in the university
museum,—Ex.
