weekly review will say: Wheat, corn and
oats have each declined about SIC. Lard
has fallen 80 cents per 100 pounds. Oil de-
clined three cents. butter half cent, eggs
one cent and coffee half a cent; but cotton
is three-sixteenths stronger. The general
average of prices has declined during the
week about three-quarters of one per cent
Reports from. .fnterior points are uni
formly favorable in tone, for the prospect
is considered cheering, though at most
points the present transactions are in de-
creasing volume. Money is nowhere in
sharp demand. Good crops give confidence
as to the future, even where the inactivity
is'now most noticeable. Cotton goods are
in steady but moderate demand. Print
cloths are strong at four cents for sixty
fours. Woolen goods are moderate. with
prices ruling below last years, where for
eigh competition is felt. 1t is thought
there is some improvement in the boot and
shoe trade, and the movement is fairly
good. just now the iron business has to
be considered in connection with the re-
cent improvement in the demand for
securities.
The stock market has advanced about
SIPS per share. Rail rates prevailing are
low and tend lower. The competition of
water routes is severe, and the average lake
rates for May. 21Ic per bushel, is the lowest
on record except for one year. Increasing
anxiety to sell pig iron is noted The
Bethlehem furnaces have been banked and
the Pennsylvania steel works viii! stop for
repairs in July.

Money is everywhere in abundant supply,

New York Influences for sherman.
CHICAGO, June pa local paper says:
New York's delegation held a meeting at
which Warner Miller made a very strong
Sherman speech. He represented that
Sherman was almost sure to be chosen, and
New York being the pivotal state, it was
necessary that she cast her seventy-two
votes for the winncr-that, of course, after
it had been proven that Depew could not
be nominated. The argument was the same
as that made to New Workers all day,
namely: If candidate is named without
the help of New York, the result will be q
lack of confidence in the ticket for it will
be said that if he cannot carry the state, he
cannot be elected, aud if its delegates re-
fuse to vote for him, the only reason is that
they believe him weak in the state. The
only result of the conference, so far as could
be learned, was to increase the Sherman
vote in New York, on second choice of
course, from 16 20 ., and this may not last.
The Outlook.
CHICAGO, June 23.-After yesterday
mornings session of the convention there
was conference of the New Workers. Mr..
Depew announced his withdrawal in much
the same terms that he spoke in the con-
vantion last night aud added that as Harri-
con was the only man that could carry the
State, he would advise his fellow delegates
TO give him their support. Senator His
cock and Warner Miller spoke i'll the same
strain and it was finally decided with but
two dissentents TO turn the delegation
over to the Indiana man. News of this ac-
ton was quickly carried into the Sherman
camp and it was conceded that something
would have to be done so stem the Harri-
son tide that was Inevitable if balloting
was allowed to proceed last night That
something. it was finally decided should
be an adjournment. The supporters sf
Allison, Alger, and Gresham appear to hive
felt about the same way. and SO when Gen.
eral Hastings of Pennsylvania pro-
posed adjournment the States which
father the three candidates in gues-
ton were prompt with their second.
in the main the vote of last night represents
the field against Harrison. The latter ap-
pears to have gained considerably since the
adjournment His friends claim that on
the first ballot to-day he will have be-
sides the vote of his State, 81 from New
York. the solid vote of West Virginia, lS
from Wisconsin, as well as support from
Tennessee, Vermont and Nevada. 1t is re-
ported that the Alger support will jump to

cheers for Gresham rent the air until Clark
street became impossible from the crowds
trying to get into the hotel Hats were
boisted on canes and umbrellas, and amid
the din the old campaign shout of Blaine,
Blaine, James G. Blaine" could be heard
like the yell of a marching army. The
sympathizers seemed to be about evenly di-
vided, and when the Blaine noise faitered,
the Gresham men cheered like madmen.
Suddenly the man carrying the Blaine
transparency was hoisted on the shoulders
of a group of enthusiasts and from this
eminence he waved the name of the Plumed
knight. The crowd went wild. Then the
Gresham men did the came, and for twenty
minutes there was a rivalry to see which
motto would be placed the highest. Men
pulled off their coats, climbed on top of
each other, and waved the names of Blaine
and Gresham within few feet of each
other. If one motto fell, it was grasped by
score of hands and sent aloft again
Finally the Blaine men reached the capi-
tai of the pillar. His banner was now
highest, but Gresham fellow, more of a
sailor, climbed up his pillar to the proiec-
ton above the capital and pushed his ban
ner against the ceiling. The crowd went
wild. He had hardly descended when a
pack of Blaine men set upon him, and in a
second every vestage of linen was torn from
the frame he carried.
The Gresham men retaliated, and the
Blaine banner was only saved by being
rushed out through the cigar store In the
melee, the partisans pounded one another
in the face, and several of the men were
knocked to the floor. Policemen in vain
tried to force their way through the dense
crowd, but before they reached the COM
bstsnts the struggle was over. In revenge
two Gresham men climbed up and fixed
their favorite's picture on the highest point
of the pillars and left it there. Such a
scene was never known in Chicago before.

Knights are lookerg.on."

"Yea; they most certainly did,"
sand do you not think that but for this
action on the part Of the BrotherhOod tho

would have proven q HuCceas?"
"There is very little doubt on that point.
The same thing has just happened in the
Reading strike, az every one who Ieads q
newspaper knows. Just sa Boon as the
strike was declared on the Brotherhood
began filling the vacancies. These actions
on the part OF the brotherhood do not
naturally tend to cement them and the

that l would not be surprised II they were
