SUI* AflD TBEH SfJOW TWO CONSPIRED TO DEPRESS. BUT NOT TO DISCOMFIT THE! CURLERS. STILL THEY PUT IN THE DAY TO ADVANTAGE AM) MAY FINISH THE TOURNEY THE F3BST OK THE WEEK. * MANITOBA IX THE ASCENDANT. Jiorllifi-iKTN Seem to Have tlie Call, Although the Others Aro by No Heem Out of It. A variety of untoward circums;ances tended to mar the second day of the big curling- bonspiel on the river yes terday from a scientific standpoint, al though in no great measure detracting from th" fullnes.s of the sport. The morning opened with some brisk play, which served to clear up the first round in the contest for the St. Paul Jobbers' trophy, but in the afternoon the warm pun softened the outdoor ice, so that only the live rinks indoors could bo use] at 2 o'clock. Accordingly little more than a start was made on the Duluth Jobbers' trophy competition un til the night and the day was spent in winding up the first draw for the Pfister trophy. In the evening came a Bnow, gradually Increasing in its stick- Iness as it fell, and, while the rinks stuck steadfastly to the outdoor as well as the indoor ice, the uncertainty of fine shots was apparent in a number 01' the scores of the crack rinks. Then, as If to complete ;i round of mishaps, > shortly after midnight and just as the last contest was nearing a close, the lights wont out, and the curlers were 1< ft in the dark for some time, during which a disagreement between the still contesting rinks resulted in some un . pleasantness. The play for the St. Paul Jobbers' trophy has narrowed down to a few rinks, and there is a liberal chance that the Winnipeggers, or at least some of the Manitobans, will carry it away. They have four rinks from the frost bitten colony, while Wisconsin has but three left, and St. Paul, with just two rinks lilt, i< only assisted in protect ing Minnesota's honor by Duncan rink, from Duluth. In the Pfister trophy the play has not progressed so far, but a large "Work was done yesterday in eliminat ing half of the contestants, among them some of those who started in on Monday with a prospect of winning all the laurels in sight. "Lam" Defiel's rink, whose prowess excited the admiration ot all Monday, fuund Tuesday the blue day instead, find was weary and sick at heart last night. After losing two matches in the fuller part of the day, a switch was made last night, Frank McCarthy playing fourth, while Lam went to the forecastle with his sailor make-up, and the locals gave the veteran Salis bury rink, of Minneapolis, a lively tvs- Ble for the honors of the Duluth job ber trophy play, and won out. Judge Cory and Mil Griggs still have a show at the first event, the St. Paul Jobbers', While Tom Scott and Billy Lorimer F!.iH have a chance to carry away the Pfister trophy. Snowden and his rink pot the first forfeit of the bonspiel yes ter.l;!.-, Ilurdon, of Duluth, not appear» -» Ing for play. With this exception, the Duluthians had rather a good day of it.

Perhaps the best game of tho morning was that between the Williams rink, from Waupaea, and the rink skipped by Judgo Cory, of this city. It was not until the last end had been played that tho match was finally decided in St. Paul's favor. 13 to 14. The figures are: Waupaea, Wis., vs. St. Paul— H. \V.

Both teams played with tho Bame skill shown on the im vious day, when they were apparently invincible, but one must lose, and while the Saints started off the stronger, Payne's men played a stpady up-hill game, and won by the uprjur-jtionnblc score of 20 to 15, as fol low:;: Winning vs. St. Paul— "W.

Kibble 0300001101021000—9 Although Duluth only pulled out one game on the opening day in tho contest for the •St. Paul Jobbers' trophy, the rink that won that ono manifested a disposition .to go through the contPst as far as it could, and it remains at the top by reason of a worthy vic tory over McCall's Cambria, Wis., rink, which resulted as follows: Uuluth vs. Cambria— C.

The score was: St. Paul vs. Granite, Winnipeg — L. Deflel 000 10301 10030100— 9 j. McDiarmld 212010:031 i<>ioit— l2 Patton's rink of the Assiuaboine club did as well for Manitoba's glory as did Big Jim's crew, and Duncan, of Duluth, with his rink dropped out of the Paster competition after meeting them and defeat, 9 to 14, as follows: Duluth vs. Winniyr-g— <".

Dr. Arnold's rink were unable to do anything against Macklin's Kilarney four. and only had 10 while the Manitobans piled up 23, a majority of which they did not really need, but which they kept massing until the finish, as though afraid the local crew would take a sudden brace.

DULUTH JOBBERS' TROPHY. Play for It !!<- K a:i In the Forenoon Yesterday. Tho play for the Duluth trophy gave those who had finished the earlier events a chance to get in play again.

CROP INFLUENCES ARE FELT. WHAT SOME OF THE 1 WHOLESAL ERS SAY ABOIT TiJe SPRING TRiDE. WINTER WOULD HELI 4 SOME LINES But They Are Au (lioerful and Hopeful That 'the Year Will He Prosperous. The Jobberu of St. Paul are just en tering upon what promises to be a most successful year. During the first fifteen days of the year trade has been excellent in nearly all lines of business and far ahead of the volume of busi ness done for a corresponding: time last year. Usually at this time of year there is a general reaction of business, which makes January one of the quiet est months of the year. The whole sale men, without exception, report a general stimulus of business, which is caused, they think, by the general feeling- of restoration of confidence and the- more prosperous condition of the country merchant, occasioned by the large crops and the prevailing good prices which the farmer has been blessed with this year. Many of them think there is still a large amount of grain still unmarketed in the hands of the farmer, and that the spring trade will be greatly stimulated by the sale of this balance. They say spring or ders are coming in and are for a bet ter grade of goods, and, generally speaking, the country merchant is ow ing less than a year ago. • t> • ■ C. Straus, of Robinson, Straus & Co., millinery, report thjat they had receiv ed to date an unusually, large number of spring orders. In their line the mild weather had rather helped business, and they are looking forward to a very good year. They have recently moved into their new building at 213 to 219 East Fourth street, and all depart ments are in working order. They now have as complete a millinery establish ment as is to be found In the North west. They occupy five floors and a basement, of 60 by 125 feet, a separate department being situated on each floor. Mr. Straus said yesterday to a Globe reporter that he did not think the people of St. Paul knew they manu factured hats in their factory and car ried one of the largest stocks in the country. Their new trimming room on the top floor will be opened very shortly and will give employment to 125 girls. • • • President Hackett, of the C. W. Hackett Hardware company, said: "Our business for 1597 showed a great Increase over the preceeding year. We have received a number of spring or ders, but in our business the local dr-al ers buy as they need the goods. We have, however, done a very large business during the past two weeks and think the country dealer is antici pating a large business and Is buying largely despite the unseasonable weather. The farmer in the Dakotas is largely dependent upon the wheat crop, but in othen localities dairying and diversified branches of farming have entered in, and in those sections the wheat crop does not materially ef fect the country. The prices upon all products wore firm jast y*,ear, the coun try merchant has money with which to meet his obligations. jA-t the close of the year we had a, smaller number of delinquent accounts than in previous years, and our losses.from bad accounts have been less. Collections have been very satisfactory. ' "Our business so far tnis month has been nearly double 'that' of last year. We arc- looking for a faiply prosperous year, and think there will' be a steady Improvement :n tra'fle throughout the year. All the present Indications seem to point to this. Our collections have been good, especially so during the last half of 1597." • • • Scheffir &. Rossi] m reported an in crease of 40 per cf>nt in the business for the first part of Januaty. as com pared with last year. Mr. R;;ssum ?a>'d: "During the year 1831, when th^rf was an especally large crop, the merchants did rof cot the benrf't of the harvest ing of this crop until 1802, but this year.

However, the country merchant does not think of this, and he is buying very liberally for thi3 time of year." I • * * C. H. Kellogg, of KeHoerg. Johnson & Co., reported that spring orders for future delivery were coming in nicely, and they had more orders in the house than they had ever had before at this ■ good. Mr. Kellogg thought that shoe men had not gotten the full benefit of the crop, as country dealers ceased buying about Nov. 1, and at the time a large amount of the wheat crop was unmarketed. He expected that they would, in the next six months, receive large benefit from the wheat sold after the shoe business quieted down in the J fall. The first of the year seemed as- ! svred, but after that the whole situa tion hinged upon the crop. * * •* Guitermrin Pros-, reported that they were getting In many new accounts, and lhat business had been good since the Frst of th" year. There was a ten dency towards higher oriCPH and bet ter yalues this y»ar. The demand had r't-o bpert to* a hotter grade <--r btmxls. The farmers had benefited by the high- er prices of cereals, and the jobbers v/ere just beginning to feel the good j effects of the harvest. They were run- j Ring their factory to its fullest capac ity, and were highly gratified at the way business was opening up. They thought the prospects were brighter for the year's business than ever before in the history of the house. * • • P. H. Gotzlan, of Gotziun & Co.. sal.l yesterday that they were compelled to run their factory during the whole month to fill the unusually large num ber of spring orders on hand. It had been customary for them to shut down their factory for a couple oi weeks for repairs, but this, season they had been running all month full time. The spring business promised to exceed that of any year since they had been in busi ness. Business would have been still better, Mr. Gotzian thought, if there had been more seasonable weather. The overshoe business had suffered on ac count of the weather, as many of til-? country merchants had nought scarcely anything in that line. The lnflncp.CC of the open winter would also be fe't in business next year, as many dealers would have on hand stock which the;/ had carried over this yeer. Colieotiona had been pood right alr.r:?, and they were looking for a big year. • • • Fairbanks. Morse & Co. repot led business good. It was yet too early in 5 the year to forecast the year's business, but everything pointed to ;i i>ig year. They had had an especially big busi ness on gasoline engines, and the de mand for hardware specialties had been good. Th<-ir collections had been good. i^>. NICOLINI DEAD.
