DUN’S WEEKLY REPORT.
aniness Shows a Satisfactory Con-
dition, Especially in Exports.
New York, Nov. 27.—R. G. Dun 8:
Cd’s iveekly review of trade, issued to-
day, says: “The heavy exports oi
wheat, with the renewed advance ir.
price, .is the most interesting and’ int
portant feature of the week’s events
Since .Aug. 1, when the extent of for-
eign deficiency became realized, exports
have been larger than in correspond-
ing weeks of any previous year. The
cotton\exports have also become very
heavy, and the outgo of corn falls but
little below last year’s unprecedented
record, while in exports-of manufactur
ing products, especially machinery, a1:
records for the season have been sur~
passed. While the aggregate for No1
vember last year. was over $109,000,000
shipments from New York" for three
weeks" have been but slightly smaller
with a fair prospect that the known in.
crease in cotton and other product:
from other ports may make up the dc
ficiency. Meanwhile, imports are run-
ning behind last year’s, at New Yorli
nearly $2,000,000 this month, so that an1
other excess of exports over import:
amounting to about $60,000,000 for the
month is probable. But this would
make an excess of about $225,000,000 in
four months. After the slight decline
last Saturday wheat rose to $1.00%— fox
November, with No. 2 red and othei
grades selling many cents higher. Corr
continues to go abroad in quantities al1
most as large as last year, when al
past records were broken, but the price
has. slightly declined.
“Cotton declined to 5.81 cts., the low-
est point for many years, with scarcely
any indication of speculative effort
More has come into sight this montl.
than during the same time in 1894 fron
the largest crop ever raiSed, while tak-
ings by Northern and Southern spin-
ners have been smaller, and prim
cloths and some other staple goods are
at-the lowest quotations ever known
In such conditions weakness is natural
although extreme estimates of pield are
not 'by- some entirely credited.
“The iron industry shows no de.
crease in production or consumption 01
pig, but with much reduced orders 1f01
products excess of production is ex-
pected. A better demand helps tc
raise the price of anthracite coal here
to $4.15. '
_“The woolen manufacture is still con-
suming heavily in execution of pasl
orders, and many agents are sold st
far ahead that they seek no furthei
business.
“Failures in three weeks of Novem1
her have been $8,888,333, against $8,269,1
646 last year, $8,819,979 in 1895, $8,088,425
in 1894, and $17,609,079 in 1893; manu!
facturing, $3,908,401, against $3,355,742
last year, and trading, $4,206,513
against $4,639,901 last year. . Failures
for the week have been 236 in th:
United States, against 300 last year
and 25 in Canada, against 38 last year.’

Washington, Nov. 27.—--F. D. Higbee
of Chicago, who is to make the million-
dollar solid gold statue of Presidenl

frown upon it. The interview was tr.

ments may be made for the posing.
“The statue will be made, withoul
any doubt,” Mr. Higbee said. “The
Western capitalists who are to furnish
the $1,050,000 that it will cost have al~
ready put up the money, and every-
thing is ready to begin the work as
soon as we have the design. The statue

Solid gold pedestal, which will make
the whole seven feet high.
“I built and am the owner of the Ads

“This colossal figure will be the larg-
est lump of gold the modern world has
in
even Seen.
AIRSHIP TO'KLONDl'KE.
Atlantic and Pacific Aerial Naviga-
tion Company Has a New Scheme.
San Francisco, Nov. 27.—Hiram S
"Maxim, superintendent of constructior
of the Atlantic and Pacific Aerial Nav1
igation Company, announces that the
company now has in course of con-
struction an airship in which it is ex-
pected to make the trip to the Klon-
dike. ,
“When everything necessary is or
board,” said Mr. Maxim, “the ship wil
weigh 5,000 pounds, and we shall take
on board about one ton weight of pas-
sengers and provisions.
“The propelling power will be a six-
teen-horse power naphtha engine
which will be made out of aluminum
as far as that metal can be used, and
will weigh, complete, 900 pounds. The
gasoline will be stored in tanks, which
will contain a sufficient quantity tc
drive the vessel around the earth.
“The skin of the ship will be double,
and the intermediate space will be
filled with hydrogen gas. "This gas
will be confined in separatecompart-
ments, and will be in the upper part of
the cylinder and in thecones.”

Kenna will be appointed successor tc
Justice Field on the Supreme Cour!
bench, and that the nomination will be
sent to the Senate a few days after the

tire on Dec. 1. About the only opposi.
tion now known of to the appointmenl

ican Protective Association, but high
ofllcials of the Government declare
that it will have no weight in the mat-
ter. .
Gentlemen who enjoy the confidence
:of the President state that he has not
fully determined on the new membel
of the Cabinet.

Cleveland ll; an Buncoed.
Cleveland, Nov. 27.-——Several Cleve-
land detectives are in New York City
in quest of two. New York bunco men
who represented themselves to Marx
Bernstein, a. wholesale liquor dealer, as
Siberian miners. They wanted to sel:
him $15,000 worth of gold dust from Si- '
berian mines for $12,000. The deal was
consummated in a. hotel on Broadway
in New York, about two weeks ago.
Bernstein has just discovered that his

ARRESTED FOR KAISER. MURDER.
h...“
James A. (Hemmer Captured in New-
ark—Confesse- His Guilt.
Newark, Nov. 27.-James A. Clemmer,
of Norristown, Pa, was arrested on
Broad street at noon yesterday by
Chief of Detectives .Stainsby and De-
tective Sergeant Cosgrove for a mur-
der committed in Norristown on Oct.
28, 1896. The prisoner, when taken to
’ Police Headquarters, searched and con-
Eronted'with evidence of his connection
with the, crime for which he was ar-
rested broke down, admitted his guilt,
and expressed a willingness to go to
Norristown without any delay. 3.
The first intimation the Newark po-
lice had of Clemmer’s presence in this
city was received Thursday from James
A. Strasburger, District Attorney of
Columbia County, Pennsylvania, where
Clemmer, with three others, was in-
dicted :for the murder of Mrs. Emma
P.‘ Kaiser. The murdered woman’s
husband, who was one of 'the trio in-
dicted for the crime, has already been
convicted and is now under sentence of
death.
Elizabeth L. Dekalb, another of the
accused persons, is now on trial. Clem-
- mer was the only one at large.
The crime was the culmination of an
alleged conspiracy on the part of
Charles 0. Kaiser, James A. Clemmer
and the Dekalb woman, who had sev-
eral aliases, to secure a policy of $10,-
000 on the,life of the murdered woman,
who had been insured for that amount
a year previous.
The insurance company set its de-
tectives to work on the case, and dis-
covered that Mrs. Kaiser, instead of
having been killed in a struggle with
robbers, as was alleged, was really
murdered.
The killing of the woman was re-
garded as one of the most brutal in
the annals of crime in Columbia
County. '
On Oct. 28, 1896, the day Mrs. Kaiser
was murdered, she was asked to go
riding by her husband in company
with tWo friends. ‘
A year previous he had her life in-
sured for $10,000, and from that time on
the woman told'a friend that her hus-
band acted as if anxious that she
would die. '
When she learned that one of the
“friends” was Miss Dekalb, who was
responsible, i1 "r opinion, for alienat—
ing her husba.... .. affections, she de—
murred. ' '
Kaiser, his wife, Clemmer and Miss
Dekalb drove away from the Kaiser
homestead early in the morning. That
was the last time Mrs. Kaiser was
seen alive.
Late the same night Kaiser, Clem-
mer and Miss Dekalb returned with
Mrs. Kaiser’s dead body. They drove
at once to police headquarters and re-
lated, the story of being attacked by
highway robbers, whom they were un-
able to repulse until Mrs. Kaiser was
shot dead, when the alleged robbers
fled. ' .
Kaiser was arrnsted and later tried,
convicted and : -ntenced to death.
Clemmer and Mirs Dekalb fled, but the
woman Was aflerward lured from
Trenton, where she lived under an as-
sumed name, to Philadelphia, and
taken into custody. 1"

Corbett and Fitz linow Nothing of
Reports of a Meeting.
New York, Nov. 27.4A meeting be-
tween Corbett and Fitzsimmons in the
prize ring seems to be as remote as
ever. A story was printed in a Buf-
falo newspaper that 'Fitzsimmons had
agreed to a match with Corbett. In
reply to a telegram, Corbett said:
“T'aunton, Mass.,Nov. 26.—Have heard
nothing about it. However, I am ready
to make a match any time with Fitz.
“JAMES J. CORBETT.”
Martin Julian telegraphed:
“Lincoln, Neb., Nov. 26.—-No truth
whatever in the report. Corbett evi-
dently feels the need of Fitzsimmons’
name to boom his business. He is dy-
ing hard, poor fellow. ,
“MARTIN JULIAN.’.’

St. Louis Nov. 27.——Fifteen thousand
employes of the Missouri Pacific &
Iron Mountain Railroad system, whose
salaries were cut from 5 to 20 per cent.
in 1893, have been made glad by a

former basis. The Missouri Pacific sys-
tem, including the Iron .Mountain, gives

Lincoln, Neb., Nov. .27.—The great

not yet been received, but the losses
are supposed to be heavy.
