Gen. Sherman.

A Gathering of NotabIes Presided Over BY
Gen. Sherman.
New YORK, April 28.-A banquet was
given at Delmonico's to commemorate
the birth of Gen, Grant. The gathering
was composed of bankers, artists, SOL
diers, journalists, lawyers, statesmen,
railroad magnates and merchants. Gen.
Sherman presided. Instead of the old
style OF long tables, Gen. Sherman had
the room set with eight round tables
forming a diamond, and in the center of
which was a ninth table, over which
Logan Q. Murray presided. The tables
We're profusely decorated with flowers,
and the seat at Gen. Sherman's table
which 1t was expected Senator Roscoe
Conkling would occupy, was vacant, and
a laurel wreath was hung on the back of
the Chair. On the wall at the rear of the
room was hung a lfe-size painting of
Gen. Grant, around which were draped
several American flags. The other parts
of the room were literally covered with
flags and bunting. There was
oas one T regular toast which
which was responded to by the orator Of
~ SGeNbLlICJ AL. D6pGW. A1I,
Depew delivered an eloquent eulogium
on the late general. He made no refer
ence to current political questions. After
Mr.. Depew had delivered his grafton,
Gen. Sherman called upon any person
who chose to speak, and as he had a great
variety OF intellectual lights to choose
from, the guests were treated to a great
FEAST OF wit. Among those present were:
Gen. Malone, of Virginia; Gen. Seward,
of Auburn Geo. w. Childs, Mayor
Hewitt, Cyrus w. Field, Rev. John P.
Axton, Gems. Harper, Prior, Fitz John
Porter, Woodford and u. S. Grant, ,Jr.

Eyarts, Gov. Beaver, of Pennsylvania;
Admiral Porter and others.
Gen. Joseph E. Johnson wrote: "Sym-
path1zing earnestly with those who de-
sire TO do honor to the great soldiers
memory, 1t would crafty me highly to
avail myself of this invitation, but very
much to my regret, my obligations at
this time will not allow me that privi-
lege."
Coli. s. Mosby's letter was as follows.
Il am in receipt of your invitation to a
banquet at Delmonico's to celebrate the
birthday of Gen. Grant. I regret that

western Miller's report OF crop conditions

there has been a steady decline in the
general condition of the winter wheat
crop for the last six weeks. Illinois

OF winter wheat of any state in the belt,
n the Indications are that the state
Will prove a failure SO far as the yield is
concerned, unless the present extreme

lateness of the season. Seeding has
practically commenced. Reports show o

The Nationalist Stout1y Resent the Gov
ernment's Intrigue Which Instigated the
PapaI Order, While ~Orangemen Fear
tho Consequences of the Diplomacy.
DUBLIN, April 2S.-Mr. John Dillon,
addressing a large meeting at Herberts-
town, advocated the justice of the ''plan
of campaign" which had in its working
fully justified the wisdom of the man
who recommended it. The whole ground
of that policy was that If the Irish tenant
could not make a contract with the land
lords, freedom of contract did not exist.
He emphatically denied that funds to
maintain the ''plan of campaign had
been obtained by force and intimidation.
He had never found a single case of this
kind, and furthermore had never seen
any money more freely given-in some
cases he had nc doubt, involving great
sacrifice and downright hardship. This
state of affairs undoubtedly existed, but
hundreds of thousands of families had
been kept in their homes through the
operation of the plan, and he did not
think much of many persons he had in his
mind who were not prepared to make the
same sacrifice for the good of the holy
cause, which would surely triumph in
the end in spite of what its enemies could
say or do.

Miss Ida Belle Richards, daughter of

WEEKLY TRADE BULLETIN.
RI G. Dun's Summary of III Business

r. g. Dun's Summary of the Business
Situation.
NEW YORK, April 28.-R. G. Dun g.
Co.'s weekly review of trade will say:
The situation is unusually confused.
Advancing markets for stocks and for
grain contradict each other. The western
reports as to probable crops are moro
definitely unfavorable, but the buying of
stocks no longer entirely by professionals
continues as If a much larger traffic for
the future were assured.
Nearly all recent railroad reports have
shown gains in gross earnings, though
the Pennsylvania western lines show
losses, and the Reading Coal mpan
reports a decrease of over $500, 900 for
March, and $751; 900 for three months In
net earnings. The western roads show a
more peaeeahle disposition, and ex-
changes at western cities generally indi-
cate a larger volume of business, while
the large eastern cities-Cincinnati,
Cleveland and New 0rleans-all report
smaller clearances than last year.
Until within the past year or two it
has always happened that shrinkage in
transactions at the eastern centers was
soon followed by decreasing trade else
where, but there are many who believe
that a new state Of things has come in
that respect. The reports of business
transactions are by no means uniformly
favorable. AT Philadelphia there is no
decided activity, but trade is thought to
be improving at Baltimore and Charles
ton. At Savannah there lis lack of ac-
Hy1ty, and at New Orleans the move
ment is Light. Detroit and Milwaukee
report q%uietness in trade, but at most other
western points some Improvement is
noted.
Collections are better at st. Paul and
n City, but slower and unsatisfac-
tory at points In Ohio, Michigan and Wis
consin.
There is prospect that the output of
iron will now improve, though prices do
not. 1t becomes more clear that, the pre-
Valllpg tendency of prices and of wages
is toward q lower level, though actual or
a%pprehended scarcity of farm products
affects prices in some speculative mar
Rets. The advance in these markets ar
rested exports to a marked extent in
March. But for large transfers of for
elgn capital to this side gold exports
would doubtless lave occurred in consid-
cradle mount. The movement in April
has been of a similar character, but the
rate of exchange has stiffened SO that an
outward movement of specie might com
mence ere long.
The treasury has succeeded in purchas-
ing about %, 4Qo, 900 in bonds, but ofser-
ings at current prices gov scanty, and,
meanwhile, the money market stands In
no present neeS.sSS2creased supplies.
Business fai urss during the last seven
days number, for the United States, 1903;
for Canada, 30. Total, 1893. For the cor
responding week last year the figures
were III, l64 being in the United States
and 81 in Canada.
