Xew York, Jan. 20. Bradstreet's to day "sajs: General trade and prices as a whole maintain the even balance which has been the leading feature for some time past and in which it will require the advent of distinctly new features to affect any basic changes. General demand is large for this season of the year, but specula tion is quiet to the extreme of dullness in some lines, and especially in those branches of speculation which go to radically affect financial affairs and therefore the volume of bank clearings. Close examination of leading lines of industry fails to show marked unfavorable features.

It is true that retail trade in seasonable goods has been and is being affected by phenomenally mild winter weather, but wherever spring trade, particular ly in dry goods, has been developed, it has been dn such volume and accompanied with such a readiness of acceptance of advanced prices as to point to undiminished confidence on the part of the trade world as to the outlook for spring business. The iron and steel industry, justly regarded as a trustworthy index of general trade, is still actively employed on old orders and new business is limited for reasons unnecessary to recapitulate. Signs of preparation for the coming season's needs are shown in the reported active inquiry for steel rails at the west, recent sales tat Chicago aggregating 80,000 tons, some of which are for northwestern railroads and some for export. Production is as evidently hard pressed as ever and the question of fuel supplies rather than of new or ders engrosses the manufacturers' UllCllllUll. Cereals are dull in nearly all direc tions and the pressure of.

enlarged stocks particularly abroad, has been influential this week in bringing about a reaction in prices. Corn and oats, however, are rather firmer on foreign buying, though sympathetically affected by the decline in the leading cereals. Apparently improved British pros pects in South Africa are assigned as the reason for the better buying of cotton, resulting in a fractional advance this The crop movement still continues mvich smaller than expected by the bears. Cotton goods are meeting with good demand on spring account. Concessions at second hands are reported, owing mainly to backward deliveries now arriving now being resold by receivers.

Business failures in the United States are fewer in number, there being 235 for the week, as compared with 205 last week, 2G2 in this week a year ago, 309 in 1898, 424 in 1897 and 341 in 1896.

..4 Talk on the African War. ALLEN RESOLUTION PASSED Th Pension Appropriation Bill Passed by the House Mr. Curtis Scores the Commissioner of Pensions A Rider -Put on the BilL Washington, Jan. 20. A speech, sensational in its interest and inter national in its importance, was delivered in the senate yesterday by Senator Hale (republican), of Maine The occasion of the utterance was the simple question whether a resolution introduced by Senator Allen (popu list), of Xebraska.

calling for informa tion as to the recognition by this corn-try of diplomatic representation of ihe Transvaal republic should be directed to the president or to the secretary of state. Senator Halemade the ques tion the text of an impassioned speech in which he declared that nine-tenths of the American people sympathize with the Boers in their gallant strug gle for liberty against one of the greatest powers in the world. He declared that the war which Great Brit ain is waging is he most fell blow at human liberty that has been struck in the century. He denied that the American people were "in sympathy with Great Britain in the South Afri can war to stamp out the liberty of the people," and when Mr. Balfour, in the house of commons, made such statement "he should be met with some disclaimer from this side of the Atlantic." He declared that the English people themselves were not in favor of the war which "had been brought on by a sharp cabinet minister engaged with gold speculators." Senator Hale "spoke with unusual force, decisiveness and earnestness.

even for him, and his passionate eloquence claimed the closest attention of every auditor. The resolution, which previous to Senator Hale's speech had caused a sharp colloquy between Senator Allen and Senator Spooner, of Wisconsin, was passed finally as amended. Senator Morgan (democrat), of Ala bama, addressed the senate briefly on the financial bill. The following bills were passed To ratify an agreement with the In dians of the Fort Hall Indian' reservation in Idaho and to authorize the secretary of the navy to change the ma terial to be used in the construction of the dry docks at the navy yards at League island and Mare island, from timber to concrete and stone. At 2:55 o'clock the senate adjourned until Monday.

Pension App-orr ation IJ 11 Pas ei Washington, Jan. 20. The pension appropriation bill, carrying $1-1 was passed by the house yesterday. It was made the vehicle of an attack upon the commissioner of pensions by Mr. Curtis (republican), of Kansas, who was seconded by Mr.

Lentz and Mr. Norton, of Ohio, and Mr. IJobinson, of Indiana, and other northern democrats. All inveighed against the lack of liberality an the administration of the rjension laws. The commissioner was ably defended by a score of members from both sides of the house.

Mr. Mahon (re publican), of Pennsylvania, charged that the assault upon him h'ad been instigated by the "pension sharks of this city, who were robbing the old soldiers. As a result of the lat-ter's disclosures a rider was put upon the bill by unanimous consent empow ering the commissioner in his discre tion to withhold the fees of attor neys of record in pension cases where he was satisfied the attorneys had not prepared the cases under their personal supervision. RAILWAY COMMISSIONS. An Agreement for Their Abolition Made and the Change Will Be Made on February 1.

Chicago, Jan. 20. The Post yester day said: No doubt exists as to the effectiveness of the agreement for the abolition 1 of railway commissions. The committee of operators having the matter in charge issued advices to all concerned to the effect that the consent of all lines not represented at the meeting at which the agree ment was adopted had been secured and the change would be effective February 1. The success of this movement marks a new departure in the history of railroad operation in the United States and the effects are likely to be felt throughout the entire field.

This agreement is not an associa tion agreement, but an agreement of the financial powers which furnish the sinews of war for railroad operation. It is one which presidents of the various systems have been de- prived of the authority to break Instructions clear and explicit, absolute and final, have been issued that the orders given must be obeyed under penalty of forfeiture of position by the official disregarding them in the slightest degree. These orders em brace not only the abolition of com mission payments, but a strict -maintenance of. all tariff rates. Traffic that cannot be secured at these rates is to be allowed to go.

No option or discretion is left in the hands of traffic officials' in' these All they have to do is to obey. Acratnmt Watering- RatlrtMd Stock. Frankfort Ky, Jan. 20. Senator Carter introduced a bill to prevent railroad -companies from watering stock.

The bill was recommended bv The Passengers on His Car Were Awed by Ills Geniality and Gallantry. Somewhere in this city the cable car conductors have a champion, who is evidently exerting his utmost to de stroy the many uncomplimentary re marks that have often been made regarding the ungentiemanly conduct and lack of politeness on the part of his brother associates. When the patron of the cable or electric car comes under the influence of this particular individual the impression is lasting. The existence of this conductor was unexpectedly discovered by a passenger last week, who, while passive ly observing a handsome young wom an enter the car, suddenly saw her turn with an angry glance upon the uniformed bell ringer behind her. His hand was upon her that was un mistakable.

But the passenger's ris ing indignation was- promptly quelled by hearing in polite words: "I saw that your hands were full of bundles, lady; let me take you to a seat." She bowed her thanks, smiling, and others smiled, with feelings of amusement and surprise. The inci dent soon passed, and the car bowled along. The next passenger was an old woman carrying a basket, suggestive of household produce from the market. "Let me help you on the car, madam, and give me your basket," was the cheery words from the rear of the car that caused the passengers to crane their necks in that direction. "There's a seat right up in front where I'll put your basket," continued the conductor, unabashed by the eyes riveted upon him, and, holding" the old woman's arm, he escorted her with the grace of a church usher to the seat.

"You said you wanted to get off at Ninety-fourth street, I believe," was the next evidence of the man's geniality, as he approached a young wom an near the center of the car, and evidently a stranger in the city. "It will be the next block." As she hasti ly started to rise, he called out: Wait until the car stops; there is plenty of time," and he saw that she had safely left the steps before pulling the bell cord. By this time the car was pretty weil crowded, yet the conductor, with more observation than is usually displayed, requested several passengers to move up and make seats for those standing; While he was in the front of the car ringing up fares a gray-haired matron near the rear got up to leave. She waved petulantly with her hand, and the idea being interpreted aright, the good-natured reply came back: "You won't be carried past, Wait until I get there and see that you get off all right." As the passenger arose to leave, his companion remarked: "Well, I de clare. Did you ever see anything like it? It can't be that he was trained to the business in New York, for he hasn't said 'Step once.
