DUN'S COMMERCIAL REVIEW. K1t« Bulnesi Outlook Like an April Daj. with Alternate Cloud* and Sunshine— Improvements Still Continue In Some Branches While In Others Trade Is Diminishing:—Influence of Strikes and Crop Reports on Trade. New York, Sept. 7.—R. G. Dun & Co.’s weekly review of trade issued today says: The business outlook is much liki.an April day, with alternate clouds And sunshine. In home branches strong improvements still continue, while in others, trade is diminishing. In the adjustment to new conditions such conflicting signs are to be expected, and the more, because the deferred business which had awaited a settlement was by no means evenly distributed. The government crop report is expected to foreshadow a great loss in corn, while other observers believe reports materially exaggerated, and estimates of the yield range all the way from 1,300,000,000 to 1,700.000,000 bushels. The wide uncertainty affects business prospects to some extent, and an advance of half a cent the past week has followed receipts not half those of the same week last year. Wheat receipts have been 5,677,157 bushels, against 4,550,337 last year, and yet the price advanced one-half cent,although Atlantic exports were only 1,158,674 bushels, against 2,111,644 last year. Pork advanced 25 cents per barrel, and lard 25 cents per 100 pounds, as smaller estimates of the corif supply were entertained. The first bills against spot cotton of the new crop have appeared, and the Financial Chronicle estimates the yield at 8,5#,000 to 9,000,000 bales. To appearances the new crop will exceed the maximum world’s consumption of American, of which the stock carried over September here and abroad was 1,589,484 bales. .* The change of duties has brought the government during the week $4,243,509 in , customs, which is less than many expected, and receipts are rapidly declining, while internal revenue has dropped off to $2,147,582, of which more than half was actually received in the previous week. But by rescinding its order regarding deposits of gold here against notes delivered at interior points, the treasury has gained more gold in a few days than by the increase in customs reeeipts. Large bills against future shipments ■of cotton, and considerable foreign purchases of bonds and stocks, have caused exchange to decline, but gold imports are not in sight, as exports of products from New York fall nearly $2,000,000 behind last year's for the week, while imports show a slight gain and are likely to increase. Of the aggregate volume of trade no exact measure exists, but payments through clearinghouses for the first week of September were 7*1 per cent, greater than last year, though 29.7 per ■cent, smaller than in 1892. Perhaps settlements on past business affect the record, but it also appears that commercial loans are not increasing and are limited, while western demands for moving the crops are much smaller than usual, indicating limited demands in other business there. The volume of currency decreased in August $10,902,758, and is now $23.99 tter capita. ‘

The boot and shoe industry has been less affected the past year than any •other, but deferred business has easily lifted its transactions above those of the same week in ordinary years, Boston shipments being 89,650 cases, against 57,400 last year, 84,826 in 1892, and 84,001 in 1870. Large orders aro no longer as frequent as they were. The cotton manufacture after some ■weeks of increasing business, which has been peculiarly stimulated by the strikes, rejoices in a really large demand at high prices. Several large mills have gone into operation this •week, and others will soon follow, and the deferred business appears enough, with current needs to employ the whole working force for a time. The iron manufacture has materially increased its output since the coke troubles ended, but with the result that pig iron is weaker, Bessemer being 811.56 at Pittsburgh. At all eastern and central markets the demand for finished products is somewhat disappointing and prices gradually tend downward, indicating a working capacity exceeding present requirements. Kails are not selling, and except at Chicago there appears somewhat less business in other finished forms. The woolen manufacture, in which ■deferred business might naturally have been larger than in others, does not increase the working force, and after two or three active weteks the business has slacked with about three-quarters of the usual transactions of the season. Sales of wool have fallen to 4,115,100 pounds, of which about a million pounds actually belonged to the previous week, against 7,616,800 in 1892, and domestic fine wool has weakened about a cent at Boston, although Australian* has advanced 1V£ with stronger foreign markets. Prices of some goods are reduced since their opening, and others recently offered are 25 per cent, below last year’s. Failures in August aggregated liabilities of 810,139,477, of which 83,172,330 were in manufacturing and 85,078,153 in tVading concerns. Failures for the week ended September 7 were 215 in the United States, agr^nst 313 last year, and 47 in Canada, against 25 last year. A. Populist Who Advocated Free Coinage of Silver Arrested for Counterfeiting. San Francisco, Sept. 8.—Special Agent Harris, of the treasury department, returned from Shasta yesterday, where he arrested James Sylvester and ■George Short, oM residents, who have been flooding the upper part of Shasta county with counterfeit dollars, halves and quarters for a long time. Harris also captured a complete set of counterfeiters’ tools. Short is a populist, and was a del egate to the recent populist convention in Shasta county, at which he adv oca ted free coinage of silver

THE NORTHWEST FIRES. Snrreylng the Situation and Planning for the Future—Twenty-Three Dead Indian* Found—They Comprised a Chippewa Punting Party—A Serious Problem For the Survivors—A Wisconsin Lumberman’s Story. Duluth, Minn.,. Sept. 8.—Gov. Nelson, C. A. Pillsbury, Kennett Clark, H. H. Hart, Mr. Norton, of Winona, and C. H. Graves, of this citjr, members of state releif committee, came here Thursday night and held a meeting. Maj’or Eustis represented Minneapolis. The. future of the burned district was discussed, as it is impossible that lumbering, which has , been the chief industry will iver amount to much again. The commission will ascertain if there is any chance of any of the saw mills being rebuilt. If not it is planned io rebuild Hinckley as a farming town and junction of the two roads. All the territory burned over is-ready for the plow, and it was the opinion of the commission that all heads of families can be given farms of generous proportions, and the St. Paul & Duluth road’s representatives offered to give farms to all who d.o not now own them. It was further outlined that the women and children refugees who are here will be provided for in this city until the fathers can put up temporary buildings in the burned district. Lumber and material for > these buildings will be sent on * at once. The state or individuals must provide funds for necessities of life over winter, and to ascertain the amount needed a full and complete census will at once be taken. Single men will be urged and aided to seek work elsewhere, and an effort will be made to have the orphans adopted into worthy families. Those not so cared for will be maintained in state institutions. The commission will look over the situation at Hinckley and other points. Pokegajia, Minn., Sept. 8.—A courier brings a report that the bodies of twenty-three Chippewa Indians, bucks, squaws and pappooses, lie upon tlie baked sands between here and Opstead, a small settlement on the eastern shores pf Lake Mille Lacs. They are scattered over 10 miles of country and will in all probability prove food for buzzards and wolves, as the country where they died is too far from civilization for burial ceremonies. The Indians left their reservation two months ago and built a hunting lodge along one of the forks of Shadridge creek. Chief Waucouta was the “big chief’ of the party, and he perished with his followers. The first body found by the courier was that of an infant barely a year old. Then came those of two squaws and five children. They had evidently turned west when the flames swept through the forest. Another mile brought him to a pile of ashes, which marked the site of the hunting camp. There was one tepee, the shriveled rawhide thongs marking the place wlieije<Ttrvstood. Around it were the ruins of a half dozen birchwood bark shanties and protruding from the ashes were the fused barrels of rifles and shotguns. Then for 5 miles the pathway was lined with charred bodies. The courier counted twenty-three. ^ Dead Chippewa Indians.

a aonoas rrooiom ror me survivors* Barnum, Minn., Sept. 8.—Dr. Cowan, coroner of Pine county, believes that the dead list in this county will rehch 700. Reports come slowly from the searching1 parties. It is impossible to give a correct statement even of the bodies already found. Dr. Cowan went to Sandstone Thursday afternoon. He will have the eighty or more bodies that have been v temporarily covered with earth there dug up, closely examined and properly buried in the cemetery near the town. Another serious problem for the survivors in this neighborhood is the disposal of the dead animals. The region about Ilmcklej' is littered with the carcasses of horses, cows, hogs, deer and even a few moose. The terrible stench from them promises to breed pestilence among the few people left. A Wisconsin Lumberman's Story. Grastsbubg, Wis., Sept. 8.—Frank Keen, a lumberman, came to town Thursday and reported that two of his men were burned to death at his lumber camp. The others saved their lives by jumping into a well. A four-horse team hitched to a loaded wagon perished. All *his camps, dams and logging outfit burned. On his way down he saw the carcasses of seven deer that had been burned to death. Horses- and oxen lie dead all through the woods. The exact amount of losses will not be known for seme time. Mr*. Wm. Adams Dying at Anderso-u From Injuries Inflicted by Her Insane Husband. Axwerson, Ind., Sept. 8.—Mrs. Wm. Adams is dying from injuries inflicted by her husband Thursday, In a fit of delirium, superinduced by fever, he leaped from his bed and bit, choked, pounded and dragged his wife for a half hour. A neighbor and two policemen finally overpowered the maniac and landed him in jail. Mrs. Adams was" choked into insensibility md big pieces of flesh were torn from ler face and arms by the madman. He ilso demolished the household furniure and broke all the windows, after vhich he ran into the street entirely lude and was captured. Memphis, Tenh., Sept. 8.—It was re* ported to-day that one of the men belonging to tho lynching party that made away with the six negroes last week has squealed. It is thought that the whole plot will be laid bare within twenty-four hours. Verdict in the Moser Case. East St. Louis, III., Sept. 8.—-Coroner J. F. Campbell’s jury returned a verdict this morning that Wagonmaker Fred Moser, of Caseyville, 111., met his death at the hands of unknown parties by drowning FATALLY INJURED, One Has Squealed.

j COMMUNION OF SAINTS. » - . ' ( Dr. Talmage Discourses on Denominational Differences. They Are of Benefit M Illustrating: Liberty of Conscience; But When Bigotry Creeps In their Power for Good is Lost. The following sermon on the subject: “Communion of Saints,” was selected by Rev. T. DeWitfc Talmage for publication this week. It is based on the text: Then said they unto him. Say now'Shibboleth; and he said Sibboleth; for he could not frame to pronounce it right. Then they took him. and slew him at the passages of Jordan.—Judges xu, 6. Do you notice the difference of pronunciation between shibboleth and sibboleth? A very small and unimportant difference, you say. And yet, that difference was the difference between life and death for a great many people. The Lord’s people.Gilead and Ephraim, was worsted, and on the retreat came to the fords of the .River Jordan to cross. Order was given that all Ephraimites coming there be slain. -But how could it be found out who .were Ephramites? They were detected by their-pronunciation. Shibboleth was a word that stood for river. The Ephraimites had a brogue of their own, and when they tried to say “Shibboleth” always left out the sound of the “h.” When it was asked that they say shibboleth, they said sibboleth, and were slain. “Then they said unto him, say now shibboleth; and he said sibboleth, for he could not frame to pronounce it right. Then they took him and slew him at the passages of Jordan.” A very small difference, you say, between Gilead and Ephraim, and yet how much intolerance about the small difference! The Lord’s tribes in our time—by which I mean the different denominations of Christians—sometimes magnify a very small difference, and the only difference between scores of denominations to-day is the difference between shibboleth and sibboleth. I propose to speak to you of sectarianism—its origin, its evils*, and its cures. There are those who would make us think that this monster, with horns and hoofs, is religion. I shall chase it to its hiding-place, and drag it out of the caverns of darkness, and rip off its hide. But I want to make a distinction between bigotry and the lawful fondness for peculiar religious beliefs and forms of worship. I have no admiration for a nothingarian. A style of psalmody that may please me may displease you. Some would like to have a minister in gown and bands and surplice, and others prefer to have a minister in plain citizens' apparel. Some are most impressed when a little child is presented at the altar and sprinkled of the waters of a holy benediction “in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost,” and others are more impressed when the penitent comes up out of the river, his garments dripping with the waters of a baptism which signifies the washing away of sin. Let either have his own way. One man likes no noise in prayer, not a word, not a whisper. Another man, just as good, prefers by gesticulation and exclamation to express his devotional aspirations. One is just as good as the other. “Every man fully persuaded in his own mind.” In tracing out the religion of sectarianism or bigotry, I find that a great deal of it comes from wrong education in the home circle. There are parents who do not think it wrong to caricature and jeer the peculiar forms of religion in the world, and denounce other sects and other denominations. It is very often the case that that kind of education acts just opposite to what was expected, and the children grow up, and, after awhile, go and see for themselves; and, looking in those churches, and finding that the people are good there, and they love God and keep His commandments, by natural reaction they go and join those very chuches. I could mention the names of prominent ministers of the Gospel who spent their whole life bombarding other denominations, and who lived to see their children preach the Gospel in those very denominations. But it is often the case that bigotry starts in a household, and that the subject of it never recovers. There are tens of thousands of bigots ten years

I think sectarianism and bigotry also rise from too great prominence of anyone denomination in a community. All the other denominations are wrong, and his denomination is right, because his denomination is the most wealthy, or the most popular, or the most influential, and it is “our” church, and “our” religious organization, and “our” choir, and “our” minister, and the man tosses his head, and wants other denominations to know their places. It is i a great deal ° better in any; community when the great denominations of Christains are about equal in power, marching side by side for the world’s conquest. Mere outside prosperity, mere wordly power, is no evidence that the church is acceptable to God. Better a barn with Christ in the manger than a cathedral with magnificent harmonies rolling through the long-drawn aisle, and an angel from Heaven in the pulpit, if there be no Christ in the chancel, and no Christian the robes. Bigotry is often the child of ignorance. You seldom find a man with large intelect who is a bigot. It is the man who thinks he knows a great deal, but does not. That man is almost always a bigot. The whole tendency of edu•ation and civilization is to bring a .nan out of that kind of state of mind and heart. There was in the far east a great obelisk, and one side of the obelisk was white, another side of the obelisk was green, another side of the obelisk was blue, and travelers went and looked at that obelisk, but they did not walk around it. One man looked at one side, another at another side, and they came home, each looking at only one side; and they happened to meet, the story says, and they got into a rank quarrel about the color of that obelisk. One man said it

was white, another said it was green, another man said it was blue, and when they were in the very heat of the controversy a more intelligent traveler came, and said: “Gentlemen, I have seen that obelisk, and you are all right and you are all wrong. Why didn’t you walk all around the obelisk?” Look out for the man who sees only one side of a religious truth. Look out for the man who never walks around about these great glories of God and eternity and the dead. He will be a bigot inevitably—the man who only sees one side. There is no1 man more id be pitied than he who has in his head just one idea—no more, no less. More light, less sectarianism. There is nothing that will so soon kill bigotry as sunshine-r-God’s sunshine. So I have »et before you what I consider to be the causes of bigotry. I have set before you the origin of this great evil. What are some of the baleful effects? First of all, it cripples investigation. You are wrong, and I am righ$, and that ends it. No taste for exploration, no spirt of investigation. From the glorious relm of God’s truth, over which an archangel might fly from eternity tfl eternity and not reach the limit, the man shuts himself out and dies, a blind mole under a cornshock. It stops all investigation. * While each denomination of Christians is to present all the truths of the Bible, it seems to me that God has given to each denomination an especial mission to give particular emphasis to some one doctrine; and so the Calvinistic churches must present the sovereignty of God, and the Arminian churches must present man's free agency, and the Episcopal churches must present the importance of order and solemn ceremony, and the Baptist churches must present the necessity of ordinances, and the Congregational church must present the responsibility of the individual member, and the Methodist church must show what holy enthusiasm hearty congregational singing can accomplish. While each denomination of Christians must set forth all the doctrines of the Bible, I feel it is especially incumbent upon each denomination to put particular emphasis on some One doctrine. Another great damage done by the sectarianism and bigotry of the church is that is disgusts' people with the Christian religion. Now, my friends, the Church of God was never intended for a war barrack. People are afraid of a riot. You go down the street and you see an excitement, and missiles flying through the air, and you hear the shock of firearms. Do you, the peaceful and industrious citizen, go through that street? Oh, no! you will say: “I’ll go around the block. ” Now, men, come and look upon this narrow path to Heaven, and sometimes see ecclesiastical brickbats flying every whither, and they say: “Well, I guess I’ll take the broad road; there is so much sharp-shooting on the narrow road, I guess I’ll take the broad road!” Again, bigotry and sectarianism do great damage in the fact that they hinder the triumph of the Gospel. Oh, how much wasted ammunition! How many men of splendid intellect have given their whole life to controversial disputes, when, if they had given their life to something ^practical, they might have been vastly useful! Suppose, while I speak, there were a common enemy coming up the bay, and all? the forts around the harbor began to fire into each other— you would cry out: “National suicide! why don’t those forts blaze away in one direction, and that against the common enemy?” And yet I sometimes see in the church of the Lord Jesus Christ a strange thing going on; church against church, minister against minister, denomination against denomination, firing away into their own fort, or the fort which ought to be op the same side, instead of concentrating their energy and giving one mighty and everlasting volley against the navies of darkness riding up through the bay!

JL gu UUl OU LUC 1U IUU OUUUUCl, and I find two beehives, and these two hives are in a quarrel. I come near enough not to be stung, but I come just near enough to hear the controversy, and one beehive says: “That field of clover is the sweetest,” and another' beehive says: “That field of clover is the sweetest. “I come in between them, and I say: “Stop this quarrel; if you like that field of clover best,, go there; if you like that field of clover best, go there; but let me tell you that hive which gets the most honey is the best hive!’* So I come out between the churches of the Lord Jesus, Christ. One denomination of Christians says: “That field of Christian doctrine is best,” and another says: “This field of Christian doctrine is best.” Well, I say, “Go where you get the most honey.” That is the best church which gets the most honey of Christian grace for the heart, and the most honey of Christian usefulness for the life. Besides that, if you want to build up any denomination, you will never build it up by trying to pull some other down. Intolerance never put anything down. How much less intolerance accomplishes, for instance, against the Methodist church? For long years her ministers were forbidden ~the pulpit of Great Britain. Why was it that so many of them preached in the fields? Simply because they could not get in the churches. And the name of the church was given in derision and as a sarcasm. The critics of the church said: “They have jno order, they have no method in their worship;” and the critice, therefore, in irony called them “Methodists.” I am told that in the Astor library, New York, kept as curiosities, there are seven hundred and seven books and pamphlets against Mothodism. Did intolerance stop that church? No; it is either first pr second amid the denominations of Christendom, her missionary stations in all parts of tne world, her men not only important in religious trusts, but important also in secular trusts. Church marching on, and the more intolerance amainst it the faster it marched^

What did intolerance accomplish against the Baptist church? ; If laughing1 scorn and tirade could have destroyed the church it would not have to-day a disciple left. The Baptists were hurled out of Boston in olden times. Those who sympathized with them were imprisoned, and when a petition was offered asking leniency in their behalf all the men who sighned it were indicted. Has intolerance stopped the Baptist church? The last static tics in regard to it showed twenty-five thousand churches and three million communicants. Intolerance never put down anything. In England a law was made against the Jew. England thruit back the Jew and thrust down the Jew, and declared that no Jew should hold official position. What came of it? Were the Jews destroyed? Was their religion overthrown?* No. Who became prime minister of England? Who was next to the throne? Who was higher than the throne because he was counsellor and adviser? Disraeli, a Jew. What were we celebrating in all our churches as well as our synagogues only a few years ago? The one hundredth birthday anniversary of Montefiore, the great Jewish philanthropist. Intolerance never yet put down anything. But now, my friends, having shown you the origin of bigotry or sectarianism, and having shown you the damage it does, I want briefly to show you howwe are to war against this terrible evil* and I think we ought to begin our war by realizing our own weakness and our imperfections. If we make so many mistakes in the common affairs of life, is it not possible that we may make mistakes in regard to our religious affaire? Shall we take a man by the throat, or by the collar, because he can not see religious truths just as we do? In the light of eternity it will be found out, I think, there was something wrong in all our creeds. But since we may make mistaks in regard to things of the world, do not let us be so egotistic and so puffed up as to have an idea that we can not make any mistake in regard to religious theories. And then I think we will do a great deal to overthrow the sectarianism from our heart, and the sectarianism from the world, by chiefly enlarging in those things in which we agree rather than those on which we differ. Now, here is a great Gospel platform. A man came up on this side of the platform and says: “I don't believe in baby sprinkling.” Shall I shove him off? Here is a man coming up this side of the platform, and he says: “I don't believe in the perseverance of the saints.” Shall I shove him off? No, I will say: “Do you believe in the Lord Jesus as pur Saviour? Do you trust Him for time and eternity?” He says: “Yes.” “Do you take Christ for time and for eternity?” “Yes,” I say. “Come on brother; one in time and one in eternity; brother now, brother forever.” Blessed be God for a Gospel platform so large that all who receive Christ may stand on it! Morflnvpr. we mav also, overthrow

the feeling of severe sectarianism by joining other denominations in Christian work. I like when the, spring time comes and the anniversary occasions begin and all denominations come upon the same platform. That overthrows sectarianism In the Young Men’s Christian associations, in the Bible society and »Tract society, in the Foreign Missionary society, jshoulder to shoulder all denominations. □ Perhaps I might forcefully illustrate this truth by calling your attention to an incident which took place about twenty years ago, One Monday morning at about two o’clock, while her nine hundred passengers were sound asleep in her berths dreaming of home, the steamer Atlantic crashed into Mars Head. Five hundred souls in ten minutes landed in eternity! Oh, what a scene! Agonized men and women running up and down the gangways, and clutching for the Tigging, and the plunge of the helpless steamer, [ and the clapping of the hands of the merciless sea over the drowning and the dead, threw two continents into terror. But see this brave quartermaster pushing out with the life line until he gets to the rock; and see these fishermen gathering up the shipwrecked, and taking them into the cabins, and wrapping them in the flannels snug and warm; and see that minister of the Gospel, with three other men getting into a lifeboat, and pushing out for the wreck, pulling away until they saved one more man. and then getting back with him to the shore. Can those men ever forget that night? And can they ever forget their companionship in peril, companionship in struggle, companionship in awful catastrophe and rescue? Never! Never! In whatever part of the earth they meet, they will be friends when they mention the story of that night when the Atlantic struck Mars Head. Well, my friends, our world has gone into a Worse shipwreck. Sin drove it on the rocks. The old ship has lurched and tossed in the tempests of six thousand years. Out with the lifeline! I do not care what denomination carries it. Out with the lifeboat! I do not care what denomination rows it. Side by side, in the inomory of common hardships, and common trials, and common prayers, and common tears, let us be brothers forever. We must be. One array-Qf the living God, To His command we bow; Part of the host have crossed the flood. And part are crossing now. And I expect to see the day when all denominations of Christians shall join hands around the cross of Christ and recite the creed: “I believe in God the Father Almighty, maker of Heaven and earth, and in Jedus Christ, and in the communion of saints, and in life everlasting. Amen!” —The beautiful colossal monument which Prof. Emil Herter, the famous German sculptor, modeled with the expectation that the fountain would be erected in Heine’s native town of Dusseldorf, Prussia, is to be brought to New York, the towns of Dusseldorf and Mayence having refused it on account of Heine's birth and political radicalism,
