DUN'S RESTEW OF THE WEEK, The Volume of’ Lagitimate Business Gradu- nl{y ont the Increase. . OOMMEROCIAL GREDITS UNDISTURBED. Exports and Iniports in Excess of Last Year—Reports from Various Cities Encouraging—Increase in Failures. New Yonk, M —[Spec Tne Ber.]—R. G. Dunn & Co.'s Weekly view of Trade says: All ordinary businessindications grow more favorablo. While speculations in some lines is active, possibly nearing the point of danger, it is undeniable that the volume of legitimate business is on the whole greater than it has been at this season in any previous year. Money is comparatively easy and com- mercial credits undisturbed. The volume of business at New York has been swallowed by heavy speculution and at Boston sale8 of stocks are three times those of last year. Bank clearings at Boston, Philadelphin and Chi are 20 per cent larger than a year ago, wh the aggregate at all points outside of New York is 25 per cont above last year. The ailroad earnings still tell the same story. The foreign trade shows less change, and yet itis heavy. Exports in May of this year are 14 per cent larger than a year ago and imports here 6 per cent larger, In all these compar sons it is to be remembered that last ye movement was about the largest ever corded. he reports from other cities are more en- couraging than uswal. At Boston a very fair business is reported, with money easy and the lumber trade not affected by the rpenters’ strike. At Philadelphia business is of fair volume at low prices and money is plenty and cheap: iron improves. At Chi- cago the movement in grain and meats ex- ceeds last year, The dry goods trade is good, though not up to last year. Liberal orders for boots and shoes and larger sales than for some time are noted, but there is a slight r lapse in clothing. The moncy market is un- changed and _tho is deemed good. St. TLouis favorably as to nearly all lines of trade with money ° in good demand. At Milwaukee and St. Paul trade is good and bus- iness at Omaha and Kansas City is up to the average, with some dullness at Detroit be- cause of the cool weather. But at that and all other reporting points this week collec- tions are fair, the money markets are und turbed and there is apparently much conti- dence in the immediatecommercial feature, The great industries also look better, aud even at Pittsburg, where the recent decline in iron wis felt more, there is a_decided im- provement, Pittsburg oeing higher and Bessemer fully £1 per ton, with manu- factured ivon stronger. At Philadelphia pr aro slightly improved. Nothing favorable can be reported of tho woolen manufucture or the trade in woolens, except that makers ap- pear to have adjusted themselves to the situa- tion, and though Wiying oily for present needs, ave still buying with the hope that a change in the tarifimay loosen foreign com- petition. In the speculative markets wheat has been stronger, rising 2 conts on sales of 33,000,000 bushels here, and the exports continue fair, Corn has declined ucarly 1 cent and oats risen as much. Pork products are all a shade lower and _coffec unchanged, but ol has risen over 5c and cotton 7-16¢. In general the prices of pro- ducts are lower than a week ago and will natarally decline us new crops approach.

Bosrox, May 23.—Prominent gentlemen from all parts of the state were present in large numbers this afternoon to meet First is! tmaster General Clarkson, who was the guest of the Norfolk club. Seve specches were made, among them one by Mr., Clarkson, who spoke interestingly upon the southern question, civil service reform and the tariff, The speal referring to the outh, said : I'he nation is now face to face with the question whether in its sovereign power it shall allow Georgia, South Carolina_or any state to prey 1 American citizen from ex ercising his constitutional right to vote.” On the tariff and the west the speaker said “The claim that the northwest is for fre trade is not true. In the last republican na- tional convention the east said the west must stand a stronger protection plank.. The west, accepted it and the best protectionist in the United States today is the western farmer Free trade has sought audaciously to set up its empire in the northwest, but it will fail As a western man, I resent the pity bestowed upon the western pioneer. He is passing through a temporary depression and he will come out of it by his strength and wisdom. ““I have spoken of the past; let us turn to the future. I beli it is republican. But the party of today is rallying on faith rather than works. The opposition takes on new form and power. It is ceaseless in its ac- tivity. Republicans everywhere should unite in extending the circulation of republican papers, This may be treason to the inds vendent press, but it is loyalty to the republ can party and that means, L believe, loyalty to the republic itself.” —————— A PRIEST SHOT DEAD, Rev.
