Midsummer Reports Indicate That Business Will Improve. THE MONEY MARKET STEADY The Advance In Iron Still Continues—Cot- ton Keeps on the Up Track, but Its Rise Is Due to Speculation. The Available Supply. c NEW YORK, J uly 6.——R. G. Dun & Co.’s Weekly review of trade says: The midsummer reports from all com- mercial centers are of especial interest, covering the questions on which the fu- ture of business depends. They indicate distinctly better crop prospects than other official or commercial accounts, a marked increase in retail distribution of products, an active demand for goods and a general enlargement of the working force, with some advance in the wages of more than 500,000 hands. At the same time they show that the rapid advance in prices has somewhat checked buying of a few classes of products. In every part of the country the outlook for fall trade is considered bright. Nothing disturbs the money market, the government begins the new fiscal year with more than the required gold reserve, and the disbursement of nearly $80,000,- 000 by corporations in interest and divi- dends will stimulate business in many branches. The latest agreement of rail- road prcsidents is treated at Chicago as meaning more than usual, and shipments have increased, amounting for four weeks to 208,877 tons east bound against 187,309 last year and 208,118 in 1893. Earnings of railroads in J une thus far reported amount to $23, 080, 870 in the United States and are 6.8 per cent larger than last year, but 15.7 per cent less than in 1893. The smaller than in the same week of 1892. 1893, the panic year, in every section, but are about $10,000,000 daily loss than in May, and about $12,000,000 daily, or 6.8 per cent, less than in J uno, 1892. The advance in iron continues, and the Thomas company has raised anthracite N o. 1 another $1 per ton. Comparison of prices for various iron products shows an advance ranging from 72.2 per cent since February for wire nails to 7.1 per cent for anthracite pig and in all kinds averaging 22 per cent. The demand and rise have come so suddenly that even while the first order for shipment of steel billets to Eu- rope, given somo time ago when prices were low, is being announced the price here has advanced from $17 in April to $22.25, or about 31 per cent. Other Industries. The shipments of boots and shoes con- tinue the largest ovcr known for the sea- son in number of cases, but retail sales have been somewhat checked by the ad- vance in prices, which has averaged 29.44 per cent since Jan. 1. But leather has ad- vanced 51.1 per cent and hides 79.8 per cent during the same time. Wool is stronger both here and abroad, the London sales opening July 2 at higher prices, and the average for 104 qualities of domestic wool quoted by Coatos Bros. has risen nearly half a cent since June 15. Sales have been enormous, though largely speculative, but exceeding those of May and J mm in any previous year, being 26,~ 897,613 domestic and 27,487,100 foreign against 24,232, 400 domestic and 19,675,150 foreign in 1892. There is a growing reor— der demand for heavyweight woolens, and many new kinds of lightweights have been opened with notable irregularity in last year. But the manufacture is better sustained thus for than any expected, and the feeling is very hopeful, especially as la- bor troubles have substantially cndcd. Vance, and the mills are generally well em- ployed. able, but has depressed wheat 2 cents in spite of estimates that the yield has been materially reduced since June 1. Every year the crop reports are having less influ— ence, and the time is ripe for the radical change in government estimates which the department proposes. The year closes cotton available here and abroad, and with at least 65,000,000 bushels surplus wheat, although somomakc the quantity 30, 000,- 000 bushels larger. The crop of oats is certain to be large, and the prospect for corn has greatly improved within the past few weeks. France’s Vaunted “Humanity.” WASHINGTON, July 6.——Ex—Consu1 Wal- ler, who is in prison near Marseilles, France, is ill and without medical supply, and the state department of this govern- ment has been asked to interfere in his be- half to the extent of either providing him with the necessary supplies or asking the government of France to do so. The Chinese Loan Concluded. LONDON, July 6.—It is believed in well informed circles that the Franco-China loan of £16,000,000, guaranteed by Russia, has been concluded without a lien on the customs of China and with the annulment of the clause providing that China shall not borrow any more 'money for six months. The “War” In Madagascar. from General Duchesne, the commander of the French troops in the island of Mada- gascar, say that the. Hovas lost 231 killed in the repulse which they sustained after attacking the French troops at Zarascas- tra, when the French captured 470 tents. Diagnosed as Cholera. PITTSBURG, July 6.—What is believed to be cholera was discovered in a Polish boarding house here containing 40 people. Two children in the house were taken sick Wednesday and died yesterday. The phy- , sician who was summoned to attend them diagnosed their ailment as cholera. PARIS, July 6.——Advices received here payments through clearing houses for the i first week of July have been 28.8 per cent 3 larger than last year, though 3.7 per cent ' June payments average larger than in ; oonronAL TANNBR room?- I. At a. Veterans’ Celebration He Attacked CleVelnnd’s Pansion Policy. INDIANAPOLIS. Jury: film—Corporal Tan- ner, ex—commissioner‘j, 'fffp‘cnsions, in an address at the voters" s’ celebration here, made an attack on ’the pension olicy of President Cleveland. He said of the court of appeals, which cut down the pension of Judge Long of the supreme. court of Michigan: ? y “ One of the members of that-court was from Maryland, one ‘from the District of. Columbia and one from Texas. The head.: ofvtho court from Maryland did servo dur- ing the war. He served a .ycarin Lafay- ette prison at New York foritr‘éfibn.” Ho quoted a message of President Cleve- land saying that there were thousands of fraudulent pensioner , and there should be an investigation. “'1‘; eso statements were refuted by tho report-of his own commis- sioner, J udgc Lochr‘en. After $400,000 had been spent in investigation there had been only 136 convictions, and only 39 of those cases were against old soldiers. With 966,000 names on the pension roll only 39 Brands Were proved .‘gainst old soldiers. That is a good showi gfor the old soldier. It shows that the o , soldiers are more honest than the apost es of Christ. In his~ day the ratio of honesty was 1 to 12." ' PAID 50 errors A ROBBERY.
