New York, Jau. 25-Rarely has there been more business staples and manufactures at principally unchanged prices than during the period since Nov. 1st. This week seems to have marked the climax of euormouB dealings a* figures which have become familiar. There was a heavy trade in pig iron at better prices, and a large distribution of dry goods at a finn-] er range bf quotations, aud a rush J to secur? prompt delivery in boots and shoes. All things indicate hat busiuess may have escaped one of these weary readjustments! of prices which proved so tryiugj of recent years. The jobbing trade in the inte-; rior is good. Collections continue excellent. Bank clearings of the leading cities have increased. Railroad ?am mgs show gain. The iron aud steel industry is steady bnt manufacturers cousider freight j rates to the sea coast excessive. Leather is irregular in demand. Hides in Chicago has fluctuated wildly. Wood has decliued this week. Cotton has maintained its recent advance. The money situation is excel lent. Grain in the northwe.t is inactive and stocks less active.

The Townes case was settled to? day. The city pays $10,000" to Willis G. Townes, of New York, and Dr Henry H. Townes, of South Carolina. The payment is to be made when such a judgment has beeu handed down xrom the South Carolina courts as the City shall direct. The Townes case-the suit was brought inTS94-as set out in the. complaint, was that some twelve or fifteen years prior the Augusta canal companv-the Augusta canal J company and the city are now all the same-unlawfully and without the consent of the plaintiffs, caus ed to be built adam across the Sa vannah river, and upon their said ands, and did wrongfully dig up the same and make large excava tions thereon and built thereou a tone dam ; that said dam being built across said river caused tLe water therein to ba backed up and raised far above its level in the natural flow of said stream, and thereby causod a large portion of | the plaintiff's said tract of land, which lies next to and adjacent to said river, aud which was formerly cultivated, to become so sobbed and saturated by said backwater] as to be unfit for agricultural pur poses, and the plaintiffs further) charged that the back water caus ed in the said river by the erec tion of the said dam, has caused fri considerable portiou of their Baid tract of land to be overflowed aad reudered useless and thereby and on account of the said sobbing and overflowing of said lands deprived the plaintiffs the use of same. OVERTURES FOR SETTLEMENT. Recently overtures for a settle ment wore made. The city was not averse to this, nor were the plaintiffs. The canal dam de mands $15,000 of repairs. The last mistrial came with nine votes against the city. If the plaintiffs won the city was confronted with continuous damage suits. Else] the dam must be moved. To move the dam would cost $40,000. Even then the damage suits were not en tirely wiped out, for the Townes property claims islands in and up tbe stream that might be overflow ed by a new dam. Th* city has spent between $3, 000 and $5,000 in the litigation. It was' unwilling to make neces sary repairs to the dam while the litigation was pouding, and the dam must have the repairs. It was : ! concluded to settle the action for the sum named, and the negotia tions to that end were closed up to-day, W. H. Barrett, Esq., city attorney, representing the city. Augusta Herald.

"His favorite dish is a very remarkable pasty made of potatoes, salt her rings, sour cream and the remains of roast game and birds of any .?kind."

The arid region of this couutry is larger than the entire area of some of the nations of the earth. It includes portions of Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, Utah, Nevada, Arizona and New Mexico, and' smaller portious of North and South Dakota, Nevada. Kansas and Texas, hundreds of thousands of acree in California, two-thirds of Oregon, one-third of Washing ton, and almost all of Idaho altogether a total of over a million square miles, enough, in fact, to accommodate one-half the people of the United States when the land ia made productive. To allow all this splendid couutry to go to waste would be contrary to the spirit of a practical nation. All this arid land needs is irriga tion. Already a large part of it has been converted to fertility by the artificial supply of water. Gradually and strongly the experts of the government have urged upon cong *ess a policy of assistance which will convert many of these acres into fertile fields. In this way the suggestion has come that to the river and harbor bill there shall he- added a provision for storage reservoirs in the Far West. If it should be done land thut is uow of no practical value would soon be worth ten or twenty dol lars an acre, and thus it happens that far Western influences are openls in favor of the proposition. Something like five millions of dollars is the first suggestion in the way of the new departure. LIEUT TOTTEN PROPHESIES England, Germany and America, he Says, will Unite for Peace. New Haven, Conn, January 25. "The twentieth century will see the reunion of Israel and Judah into one house aud the fraternity of that house with Assyria and Egypt, which triad God hath blessed. These three are England, Germany and America. Their reunion with Judah settled at the central land will assure the world of peace throughout a golden age." Thus prophesies Lieut C. A. L. Totten, formerly professor of military science at Yale. Prof Totteu's prophetic writings have made him well known. Continu ing he says i u part : "Qneen Victoria's reign is the chronological counterpart of that of David. The emplacement of the date of the Queen's death and of the new King's accession upou the scroll of chronicles of Israel's monarchs is significant." In elucidation of this Prof Totten quotes Biblical chronology, and adds: "He whose right it is to reign without end will soon assume the everlasting sway. We are now in a new atmosphere, and we doubt not that events will speed along to tremendous consummation at an accelerated rale. Victoria's reign was mathematically perfect, both square and round (64 yeare.) Thie ie eight by eight, the square of the number, always indicative of that which is 'rjew,' and two to the sixth power, which is hexagonal and with the radius measures the circle. Victoria rou tide thc. measure of the past and auotbei measure ai d measure are at hand The fact is, we live in tremendouf days at the borderland of -vas! affaira."

The Body About to be Put Away When Charles Crawford Sat Up and Bejran Talking. Vew York. Jan. 22-Charles Crawford, a negro, who tried to kil1 his wife, and then shot him sell ;n th^ Ieruple, was taken to the St. Nicholas hospital in Ne wark, on Saturday uight. At the hospital door the ambu lance iriver told the sister in charge that he nelieved the t man wasde&d. There was no physician at the hospital at the time, and it is crowdtd with cabes. The sister stepped ii to the ambulance, con vinced herself that the patient was dead, and told the driver to take the body to the morgue. The driver did FO, and the body was placed ou a ruller el ak at Mull in's morgue to be pin away. Joseph Murphy, an assistant at the morgue, examined the bjdy be 'fore it could be placed in the mor gue building, and found the man was breathing. In a few minutes Crawford sat up and utl.ered some words. He was immediately driven back to the hospital and placed on a cot. Crawford was alive last night. The surgeon? probed for the bullet, but could not find it. Crawford .lived with his wife, Sarah, at No. 232 Central avenue. They disagreed about, money mat ters, and Crawford was jealous of the woman, who is an octoroon. The quarrel occured in their apart ments. The other tenants of the house heard a pistol shot, and then saw Mrs Crawford run down the stairs with b^ood on her face. The bullet struck the woman near the right temple, and ploughed a fur row aloug her forehead without injuring the skull. A second shot was heard in the room, and a po liceman found Crawford lying in sensible across a bed, with a wound in his head and a cheap pistol clutched in his right hand. Mrs Crawford was treated at the city hospital, and returned to her rooms yesterday.

The South Caroliua Inter-State and West Indian Exposition will open iu tho City of Charleston, S. C., December 1,1901, and close June 1,1902. The Exposition Company has been chartered by the State of South Carolina, with a capital Btock of $250,00. Active work upon the Exposition project has only been in progre-s since about the first of last, mountb and what has been accomplish ed in the.period that has elaps ed since then is without parallel in the history of exposition building. The site of the Ex position will be on the eastern bank of the Ashley Iii ve] within a mile and a ho If of th? business centre of the City oi Charleston. Tho grouuds ar? beautifully situated, and will lnuc theuisnlves to tho most artistic treatment. Ono half of the groundi will be devoted to the Main Ex position Buildings, the Midway ConceB ions and the Administra t ion offices of the great show. Tin remaiuiug part of the gnuuds wil preserve their present great natura beauty, and will be devoted to th< buildings and exhibits made b; the Government and the severa States of the Union, which wii take part in the Exposition.' Som description of the anhitectura features of rho Fair will be of meral public iu'erest. The Exposition grounds are divided into two main sections, one consisting of the old Washing ton Race Course property and the other of the Wagener farm, for merly the Lowndes place. The Architect-in-Cbief has adopted the general plan of developing the Race Course proper on purely con structive lines and of preserving as far as possible the natural beauty of the Wagoner place. The Race Course property has boen employed for years for purely agricultural purposes, no races of .any importance having been given there since the War between the States. This part of the grounds is entirely level. No better site, in the opinion of expert artiste and builders, could be found. About 22 acres have been reserved on this part of the grounds for the Midway Concessions. The main Exposition buildings surround a grand court at the western ex tremity of the old Race Course. This .will be in bhape someth ing lake an elongated hoseeboe, with the Cotton Palace, or main Exposition building, occupying the toe of the shoe, with the Com merce Palace and the Agricultural Palana occupying respectively the two sides of the shoe. * These buildiug8, with their connecting colonnades, will extend fora dist ance of about one mile. Within the horse-shoe there will be a Suuken Garden covering several acres, with a lake in the center. A wide esplanade or Alameda about 60 feet iu width will surround this garden. At the northern eud of the garden there will bf? a grand Plaza from which a spleudid view will be obtained of the main Exposi tion buildings. The vistas open ing out fr>m this point through groves of palmetto trees which will line the outer edges of the walks around the Garden will extend for a distance of 2,000 feet. Just north of the grand Plaza will stand the Auditorium building, directly opposite the Cotton Palace, from which a view may. bo obtained of the entire Court of Palaces, with 1 the Sunken Garden, and its trees and flowers and tho sloping banks which surround it. Each of the , Exposition buildings will be 400 feet in length, with an avfrage width of 100 feet, and, as already stated, will be counected by colonnades, the construction be ing such that the colonnades can be used for exhibits. Among the special attractions of the Court of Palaces will be fountains and bits of statuary i and handsomely designed columns of the Spanish type, all contribut ion to the beauty of the scene. At one end of the Sunken Garden J a music stand will be erected, and , at the other end a pergola or lattice j work screen, against which will '? grow during the Exposition period, the most beautiful of tropical . vines. In the centre of the Plaza 1 there will bea sun-dial ten feat in height a ucl thirty feet in diameter. 1 Which ever way the eye looks, there will be visions of beauty. Toward the south, the great Cpurt s of Palaces, toward the east, the 1 towers at the entrance to tho Midway, and looking across the entrance way the groves and minarets of the Wagener place. The main Exposition buildings will be the Cotton Palace, the Commerce i alace the Agricultural Palace, the Miuing and Forestry Building, the Auditorium, the Administration Buildiug, the Ma chinery and Transportation Build ings, and other structures devoted to railroad exhibits, to restaurant purposes and to public comfort. Besides all these there will stand on the Wagoner place the Uuited States Government Building, the Woman's Building, the several State ard City Buildings and the Negro Department. The Cotton Palace will be the most imposing of the Exposition buildings. It will cover upwarsd of 50,000 feet of floor space, will be 550 feet in length and at least 100 in width. One of the features of thi? building will be amaguificent portico, In theceuterof the build ing will rise an imposing dome to a height of more than 150 feet. In this buildiug will be displayed the products of the cotton mills of the country, aud, as South Carolina is the leading cotton manufacturing State of the South and the second cotton manufacturing State of the Uuion, it is expected that the dis play in this building will be the most complete and attractive that has ever beeu made. The palaces of Agriculture and Commerce will each contaiu about 40,000 square feet of floor area, in addition to their connecting ar cades which will contain in all about 20,000 square feet. Each of these buildings will hav? a central dome and smaller turrets at tho corners, emphasizing the entrance to these as well as the ceuter pedi ment?. The iuierior of these build ings has been particularly design ed for both effective and artistic treatment and practical utility. The windows in all of these will be carried at least eight feet above the floor, the roof trusses being sonstructed upon the cantilever principle, thus avoiding the usual massing of unsightly wooden framework and emphasizing the graceful lines of arches and circles, starting from the,principal domes iud carried through the wings and approaches. The Administration Building is jf most attractive design and will be occupied by the officers and staff of the Exposition. The Archi tect has departed widely from the usual style in designing this struc ture. The principal Exposition entrances and exits have been ;ombined with it. The central lome of this building will bo about ?eventy-five feet in height and each (ving will be flanked by other tow ers of lesser height but equally ar tistic design. In harmony with the Spanish Renaissance type, which will prevail throughout the Exposition architecture, the build ing will be covered with a wide over-hanging roof of corrugated Spanish tiles. At the cenire a wide balcony or porch will project boldly into the grounds. Inside the central dome, which will be three stories in height, a richly decorated colonade will support the overhanging gallery. The Mineral and Forestry Build ing will contain between twenty and thirty thousand feet of floor apace. This building will stand directly opposite the Administra tion building. It will be circular in form, with flanking towers. The interior will be open from the ground to the rafters and the ex terior effects of strength and solid ity will be gained by huge masses of walls, the enrichment of this structure being secured by special ornamentation of its principal and Bide entrances. The windows of this building will bo high above the floor line and the whole effect of light and shade will be gained by overhanging wide cornices ; rhe Spanish Renaissance and the Spanish Mission type of architec ture, as exemplified in Southern California and in Texas, being combined ina most effective way. All of the main Exposition buildings will be connected in the l? ge circle surrounding the Court of Palaces. THE NEW YORK WO:&LD THRICE-A-WEEK EDITION. Almost a Dally at the Price of? Weekly.
