Yield and Consumption—No Extra , Demand For Cotton Goods—The Failures' of the Week. New York, April 10.—R. G. Dun & Co.’s weekly review ul trade says: Out of 4,006 failures with liabilities of $60,752,561 in the first quarter, 74 bank- ing failures covered more than a fifth of the amount, $12,744,650, and 3,345 failures with liabilities of $35,947,892, or nearly three-fifths, are classified this week according to branches of busi- ness, leaving only 587 failures and less than a. fifth of the liabilities, $12,060,- 019, in branches of manufacture or trade not specified. Only two of the 13 manufacturing classes and only four of the 13 trading classes show lia- bilities for the quarter larger than last year and only five manufacturing and three trading show larger average liabilities. For the month of March only three manufacturing and four trading classes show larger amounts than last year, and only two manufac- turing and .five trading show a larger average of liabilities. In almost every case also is shown that the increase is due to one or two exceptionally large failures in that class. The returns com- pared with -those of three, previous years disclose much improvement al- ready and a bright prospect for. more hereafter. A sudden collapse in the wheat mar- ket, exceeding 3 cents in a day, ap- pears to have no other cause than a be- lated percep ion that past accepted es- timates of yield and consumption, offi- cial and other, have been misleading. Floods and unfavorable weather for seeding have no weight. The expecta- tion of great scarcity and high prices burst like a bubble, and for a time the only support was the taking of profits by speculators for a fall. Facts have not warranted hopesof a great advance, nor do they now war- rant much expectation of decline. Western receipts are smaller than la‘t year, large, though over 60 per cent larger than a year ago. Corn receipts 00"- tinue heavy, and exports for the wer : were 3,323,337 bushels, against 1,142,70 last year, and against Atlantic exports of wheat amounting, flour included, to only 1,521,122 bushels, against 967,553 last year.. - ’ Cotton and \Vool. The demand for cotton goods does not increase, although sales of fair magnitude continue, but print cloths are dull, and in general the demand does not seem to be gaining on the pro- duction. Speculation in wool has been checked” by the possibility that duties may take effect ,April 1, and some large shipments from abroad have been countermanded, while traders here are less disposed to sell. But trading be- tween dealers makes up more than half the sales of 12,739,400 lbs for the week, and since sales in six weeks at three markets have been 76,464,600 lbs, it is not improbable that many mills have, as is claimed, a full year’s supply. The demand for men’s goods has diminish- ed, the first round of purchases having been completed by many buyers wi‘h results fairly encouraging, and the de- mand for dress goods, especially of the lower grades, has caused an advance of 5 per cent in some lines. The iron industry is hampered by the contest between Mesaba ore interests, which prevents as yet any settlement of ore prices and leads many to expect fur— ther decline in finished products. The Illinois Steel works, the. Lake Erie works, at Clev'eland, and the works of Oliver & Co. and Byers & Co., at Pitts- burg, are stopped by labor difficulties, and some furnaces have stopped because theproduction of pig had outrun the de- mand for finished products, and heavy stocks remained unsold. Bessemer pig at Pittsburg brings only $10, and gray forge only $8.75, the lowest on record, but no quotable decline is seen in finish- ed products, and nails are strong. Stocks Advance. . After a week of la—nguor, which some seized as an opportunity to depress stocks, a \lgorous a vance came on Thursday and those which had been most confidently sold advanced from $1 'to $2.50 per share. The supreme court decision produces as yet no such effects as were feared. Crop prospects are gen- erally good, and dreams of gold exports were made laughable by the reduction of rates by the Bank of England, while railroad earnings are on thewhole en- couraging. Reports for March aggre- gate in the United States alone $28,780,- 846, barely a tenth of 1 per cent less than last year, and 6.7 per cent less than in 1892. and are the best since last June. Foreign trade has not shown the in- crease in imports which some feared, as the excess over last year was for the week but 7 per cent, and for five weeks past only 3 per cent. Expectation or large imports is somewhat modified since the provisions of the pending bill deter many shipments. For the mo- ment there is very little doing in com- mercial loans, though bankers expect a more active market. Failures for the week have been 252 in the United States against 209 last year, and 36 in Canada against 33 last year. ‘ ' Burglar-s Rob Mrs. W. E. Curtis.

St. Augustine, Fla., April 10.-—William Jennings Bryan was all right toda’y ex- cept for a soreness from the bruises he got in the fall of the piazza last even- ing. ' He left early for Tallahassee where he addressed the legislature. Nearly 400 men andwomen were pre- cipitated about 20 feet to the ground, and many of them injured, but none fatally. Mr. Bryan was picked up un— conscious or”. if" r'vcd to a physician’s office, where an, examination revealed that he had received no injuries of a serious character. ' It was deemed best, however, to abandon the reception which was to have been given him. 1111'. Morgan Denies It; London, April 10.—-J.
