The restricted trading has been more conspicuous at eastern centers, owing to the decline in the number of mail orders received and to the notable absence of interior merchants. At Chicago there is demand for funds for manufacturing and commercial enterprises, but a larger demand for grain and other speculative ventures. At Cincinnati tunds are flowing back from the country, and atMilwaukeelhfly continue to go westward but in diminished volume.

At eastern centers the movement of dry goods has been disappointing.

they havire an illegitimate son aged ten years. Being refused admittance to Poe's house, they became enraged and planned the horrible murder. The suffering from a severe chastisement from his reputed father, now tells the whole story.
