DUN'S REVIEW OF THE WEEK Trade Conditions Throughont the Country Better Than Usual. BUSINESS IN THE WEST INCREASING ath, favorable Conditions Prevail in the S But the Outlook Taken Altogethor Is Fattering — Wall Street Review — Clearing House Statements, New Yonk, April 15, —R. G. Dun's Weekly Reviow says: During all this year business nows bas been curiously sectional. Western cities aro gaining almost without exception, doing the largest business ever known and inclined to resont the suggestion that it is any degrce bolow expectations. Tho south has bLeen strugeling with unfavorable conditions, do- ing less business than & year ago, and look- ing in vain for a material change. The east has been doing a large business, rather less than a year ago on the whole, but especially less than many traders expected to do this year. This, with small profits, makes the season disuppointing to many. The condi uons continue and are reflected in returns this week. Yet the volume of trade in the whole country has been larger than in any previous year. Tho iron trade illustrates tho situation. Tho output of furnaces on April 1 was 145,462 tons against 103,902 on March 1, and 118,453 a vear avo, when the great strike was in progress. The reduction of the output of pig iron Is clearly necessary since tho con- sumption has been 10,000 tons weekly below the output. Tho production has veen 200,000 tons during the guarter, and the consump= tion appears to be greater than in any other quarter. A botter demand is seen for pig and plates at the east, also at Chicago, and tho pipo trade is reviving at Pittsburg, Coal 18 unchanged and dull, Copper is waiting for the expected com- bination of forcign producers; tin is specu- latively strong and lead very firm, Wool sales ure large for the season, and, since January 1, havo been 5 per cont greater than lust year, the domand for dry goods having someéwhat improved and is better than w recently expected. In men's wear goods doubt about the future taste of the public still delays orders, but a strong consumption 1s clearing off stocks of jobbers. News from the Cities. Nows from the cities is rather better as to extent, cheering from the west, but some- what less satisfactory as to the south. Iron mills at Pittsburg are all in operation, and although prices are weakoning, the glass trade is oncouraging, the hardware good and lumber quict and rolled irou weaker. Southern trade at Cincinnati s not satis- factory, but machinery is active and tho car- riage business 1s a nttle better, Detroit notes a zood jobbing and manufac turing trado 10 some lines, botter than last year Chicago's merchandizo sales considerably exceed last year's and fully equal expocta. tions, Receipts of wheat and barley ave double last year's; of flour, corn ana cattlo an increase of one-alf, of cheese one-tnird, with some increaso in dressed beef, oats and rye, but a decrease in wool, butter, lard and cured m eats. Trade in Milwaukeo 1s good: at St. Louis aquite strong, notwithstanding railway wash- outs, At Omaha trade is quite active in grocer- fes, shoes aud hardwure aund steady in dry goods. Trade at KKansas City is quiet, the weather mterrupting and prices for cattle being the lowest of tha year. A Minneapolis and St Paul trade is ex- ((:u{lenl, especiully in lumber, and at Deaver air. Business at Lattle Rock is deprossed. At Memphis and Nastville trado is dull, though somewhat improvea at Montgomery | rather flat at Now Orleans and slackening at Bavannah, Speculative markets have beeu more ac- tive, wheat falling 55 cents, with sales of $4,000,000 busiels here, and corn 1 cent,while oats are slightly higher. Western receipts of wheat coutinue ut the rate of 13,600,000 bushels weekly, with exports shrinking, but westorn receipts of corn have been S00,000 bustels in three days und exports 750,000 Cotton exports have started up again, ex- ceeding last year's, uud tho prices are ad- vanced % of a cent during the week, with an encrmous speculative trade. No change is seen in pork products, coffee is 25 cents ‘weakor and oil 1 cont stronger. The financial situation is remarkably free from unfavorablo signs, Collections in nearly all parts of the country are better than usual, though delay is seen at some points in tho south, and the money markets are overywhere amply supplied. Nor s thero reason to apprenend disturbance on account of foreign trade. ‘The businoss fuilures occurring throughout the country during the Jast seven days num- ber 226, as compared with 205 for lust week.

Notbing of & Startliug Nature Has Inter- fered to Influence the Market. New Yous, April 15.—~Bradstreet's Weekly Wall Street Koview says: The closing of the Btock exchange for Good Friday, followed as it s by a holiday in Londen which extends until next Tuesdav, produced the usual dis- position to 1imit speculative transactions and #ave to the week's market a rather dull tone and temper. One of the principal Hebrew festivals, occurring early in the weck, also tended to curtail activity both hero and in the markets abroad. At this moment the action of the London markets in regard to Armerican stocks is regarded with more than ordinary attention. Tho general belief in Wall street circles is that if the improving teraency, which is shown in that quarter, and which, in the past fortnight, has re- sulted in limiting purchases by forcign houses continues after the Easter recess it would in all probability result ina higher range of prices all around. Tho fact that in spite of the drawbacks to any free display of activity the foreign element continued to buy during the present week was theroforo regurded as very significant, and aided ma-, terially in sustaining the bullish tone, which was quite apparent in the operations of the market. Professional influences naturally predominated and manipulation made itselt felt. The ecasy condition of money is justly regarded @s n very fav- orablo element in the situation and though some attention is paid to the loss en- couraging crop outlook, neither that nor such occurrences as the reportea renewal of rate cutting by the trunk line railroads seem to exercise any positive effect upon sharo spcculation. ‘The announcement that the Richmond Terminal plan would become operative came too late to have any decided effect In the active operations of the market in- terest was almost entirely monopolized by the anthracito coal stocks. The trunk line stocks were dull, the only feature being o rise in Ontario & Western on Thursday and the gran shares were steady without activity. The industrials furnished some in- terest. National Coraage had a rapid de- crease, but was railied under munipulation.

[Copyrighted 1592 by New York Associated Press.] Losvoy, April 15.—Revelations made in evidence on the state of tke British army, given before tho committee of iuquiry, pre- sided over by Lord Wantage, have boen the sensation of the week. The recommenda- tions which the committee recently pub- lished wero a scries of dry and formal propo- sitions, indicating nothing of the extraordi- nary statements of the leading military chiers, The latter were of such a nature as will lead to the most active agitation in Par- liament as soon as the recess is over. A group of literary members of tie Houso of Comimons have already scen War Secrotary Stanhope privately and extorted from him a promise that the government shall not ob- struct o full discussion and subsequent re- forms. Tue generais examined concurred in the opioion that there was hardly a single infautry battalion at home effective. Ad jutant General Wood declared that 50 per cent of the men encamped at Aldershot were unfit for camp dutics; that they could not even do a day’s service, on account of their youth, ana that the only practice he dared to vut on such men was two hours carrying the pack or sentry duty. Wholly Unprepared. Tho auke of Cambridge, commander-in- chief, endorsed the startling statement, adding that if catled upon to organize two army corps on short notice the authoritics could not do o, und he did not think it possi- blo to mobilize one corps composed of twenty-five battalious of infantry. Lord Wolscley, 1n answer 1o a question whether the battaiions as they now stand would be fit for home defenso, replied: *If we were invaded toworrow they would be little better than nothing.” He held the volunteer forco was the important factor in defense. The duke of Connaught said: I am per- fectly certain that if the batallions unaer my command at Portsmouth were ordered to servico toworrow one-half would not be al- loweu to o on account of unfitness,” I'ne main cause of the weakness of the bome bgttalions is stated to be deportutions of their best men for foreign ana colonial service. Lord Wolseley likeaed the home forces to & squeczed lemon. The duke of Connaught beld that grown men would not join the service owiug to the fact that wearers of the queen’s uniform are sociully ostracised, and also because soldiers are wantonly bur- dened with excessive sentry duty. He told bow, baving noticed tho numerous guards employed at Windsor castio on sentry duty, he had induced the queen v sk tho suthor- ities to reduce the number and otherwise to relieve them, but the authorities would nov assent until Strong psessure was brought to bear, Tho duke of Connaugbt related a number of instances showing the coutempt In Which 1o soldiors' uniforin 1s held. T once caso drummers refused to driuk ata steamer bar beside a sergeant and in other cases hotels closed their rooms to members of the guards, In regard to methods of re. form, there was & cousensus of opinion that a substantial increese of the strength of bowe battalions would come from liberal pay and better pensions. Views differed on tho period of service, but agreed on the need of periodic traiuing for veserve men. It is now proved that in the volunteers reliance, in the event of war, i placed. Ingland's Influence Over the Khedive, Follow!ng his diplomatic success rogarding the firman of investiture of the khedive, Lord Salisbury bas clinched bis hoid on the kbedive oy iuciting bim to an open quarrel With the sultan, In response to the sultan’s invitation to Constantmople the khedive in- timated the recall of Moultikas Pasha, tho porte's delegate at Cairo, was first aesirable. loubtikar P’asha madethe mistake of de- manding achange in the Egyptian ministry. ‘The English minister, Sir Evelyn Baring, thereon got the khedive to wire to the sultan that Mouhtikar Pasha had arrogantly inter- fered in Egyptian affairs aud ought to be withdrawn. As a further proof of bis ac- ceptance of Euglish dominance the khedive will seud his brother, Mebmet Ali, now &t school in Vienna, to finish bis education in Englaod. Communications passing between Mr, Gladstone and & committee in Midlothian have elicited from Mr. Gladstone the declara- tion he considers the Newcastle program a definite platform for the coming election If dissolution be precipitated be will b pre- pured to go on the field aud address a series of meetings. 1f dissolution ve deferred he still promises a sbort stumpiug tour. The tenor of the commuuications indicates he does not intend to issue a special manifesto, but merely the usual address to the electors on tho event of & cor test, ‘The meeting of the unionist conventio nin Belfast will be mnade the occasion of a general holiday ia Ulster. Ten thousand delegates will be present aud there will be 15,000 peo- plo lo the procession, The usual Orap, turnout will be thus swollen by members from overy county lod, Ditlon 1s Stiit In Polities, The cauard to the effoct that John Dillon is bout to retire from political lite tecause of A quarrel with Mr. Healy is ridiculed by members of tho Irish party. The dispute be tween Mr. Dillon and the board of party or- ganization is tending toward a settlenient. The irish parliament committee urge Messrs, Dillon, O'Brien and Sexton to serve on tho board, and the majority of tho board to meet the wishes of the committes. There is a prospect that the cotton lockout will be of short duration. A number of em ploves vledged to the lockout continue work- ing, paying & fine to the federation fund for their breach of the pledge. Others favor the operatives' offer to arbitrate, A conferenco of employers will decido tho question as to arbitration on Tuesday. A majority insist upon a general stoppage, and the position of workers already grave, will be aggravated. The strugglo is unparalleled in the history of the cotton trade. There are 65,000 hands now iale aud the number will bo increased, by including aependent trades, to 150,000 Some of the workmen are fairly proparea fo face the lock out, while others will starve, Mr. J. B. Martin, Mrs, Martin (Victoria Woodhull) and Lady Cooke sailed on_the steamer Traver on Wednesday for New York. Mrs. Martin stated she had been of- fered £150,000 for fifty lectures in the Unitea States, and would accept 11 her health per- mitted. —— ROUTE FOR THE ROCK ISLAND, Lincoln Connections of the Co Arri pany Being with Difficuity, LixcoLy, Neb,, Avril 15,—|Special to I'ue Bee. | —There are likely to bea good many grade stakes set before the Rock Island peo ple decide on a routo from P street soutb. The latest information is to the effect that wnstructions have been given kngineer Wick- ham to commence next Monday on a diagonal survey from P and Nineteouth southeast to the coruer of O and Twonty-second streets, thence south on Twenty-second to Randoloh street, and from that pointthe routo to be de- termined later. This change from the orig inal plan of touching O street at Nineteenth 18 made in consequence of advantages gained in prices of property, representatives of tho road asserting that the saving wili amount to £50,000 or more. Judge Borgelt Nearly Recovered, The many friends of Judze Borgelt will bo glad to loarn that he has nearly recovered ontirely from the effects of the wounds re- ceived by him about six weeks ago and was today able to appear on the streots. 1t will be remembered that tho judge was fired at twico by a half erazed individual in tho po- lico court some six_wecks ngo. A picco of one of the bullots fired at him lodged in tho brain, where it has remained over since. For two weeks bis lifo was despaired of, but to the surprise of his physician and the mem- bers of his family he began to recover. His improvement has boen quite rapid, and ho will soon be ableto resume his judicial duties. onductor's Piece of Luck. Joseph M.

He loft for the cast this morning to gather in his windfall. Mr. Branuan has been a faithful emplove of the Street Railway comvany for a number of vears and his piece of good _ fortunc is con- sidered well deserved by all who knew him. Lively Time In Prospect. The excise board will meet at 2 o'clock to- morrow afternvon for the purposo of ap- pointing the mombers of the poice forco for the ensuing year ana there have teen a score or more of very lively campaigns among as many ambitious aspivants for a place on the force. Ivis understood that Mayor Weir is likely to object to five or six of the appoint- ments, and if be does the contest that has existed between the mayor and the other members of the cxcise board for the past year will be continued. According to a recent cccision of the supreme court the excise board has full control of all appoint- ments of the police force, but the mayor has the power of romoval. ‘There will e many important chauges tomorrow. Ask for Heavy Damages. In Judge Tibbett's court today the case of Joseph Bell against the Burlington Railway company occupied tho attention of the jury. Bell was in January, 1802, an embloye of the defendant company, working in the yards at Newecastle as o switchman, He was injured while in the discharge of his regular dutios to such an extent that he thinks that nothing short of $15,000 will cover tho damage. The defendant denies all liability in the case for the reason that the plaintiff was a member of the Burlington Volunteer Reliof depart- ment and that according to the terms of his membership tho company was absolved from ull hiavility in case of accident. A similiar case is pending in the sopreme court of the stato, in which the Burlington makes the same defense, No Arbor Day Proclamation, Governor Boyd will issue no Arbor day proclamation for the reason that the observ- auce of the day1s made imporative by the statutes of Nebraska, and the day is fixed by law. A proclamation setting apart a day is cutirely superfluous. No proclamation was issued last year and tho day was as widely celebrated s ever. This year the number of trees planted will be reported by county officers to the bureau of industrial stutistics and for the first timo in the history of the state it will be possible to aporoximate the nutaver of trees that have been added to the forest area of the state by the operations of the Arbor dey law. Gosslp at the State House, The Nebraska Columbiun commission will meet at Owaba next Monday. Tho uew ap- pointees will be aunouuced tomorrow to fill the vacancies caused by the resignation of President Strang and Secretary Powers, Secretary Koontz of the Stato Board of Transportation is on the sick Jist. The Central West Land company of Omaha was incorporated today by I. £, Williams, I. S, Brownlee aud G. W. Poynton with & capital of §5,000, Corn in McPhorson County. McPherson county is one of the organized counties of Nebraska that is without a iilo of railroad. In spite of this fact the county is rapialy’ filling up with a good class of sottlers, In view of the fact that there are no grain markets in tho county and that evorytiing tho farmer raises must bo hauled from forty to fifty miles to North Platte to reach a mavket, the cost of raising corn under these circumstances is an important matter, Commissioner Andres addressed a number of inquiries to farmers of that county and he has received replies irom every one applicd to for information. The_estimates rango all the way from §2.70 to $10.80. The lowest figures are for corn raised upon homestead lands. The averago of all the estimates re- ceived from thie entire county is §.55 .
