FINANCE AND TRADE.
The Actual Condition of business
Does Not Improve.

DOCS NOT Improve.
NEW YORK. April Ar. G. Dun @
Co.'s weekly review of trade says:
The actual condition of business does
not improve, however hopeful the an
ticipation warranted. Unfavorable
weather has prevailed over wide area,
affecting local trade and making travel
on country roads still more difficult.
Labor troubles are becoming an import
ant factor, strikes having begun at many
localities in the building trades, and tue
great coke strike having resulted in
riots and the calling out of troops.
The volume of all kinds of money in
circulation Is Sll ,641 i 145 greater than a
month ago, and S12, $50, ,4l2 greater than
a year ago. Practically the entire in
crease in March is In silver certificates
and new silver notes, and the amount
of gold certificates out has been re-
duced by exports of coin. Money is
temporarily closer at some points on
April settlements. but at all the in.
terror points the mar kets are quiet and
comparatively easy.
Iron does not mend at all, for in con-
fdence that strikes will soon end con-
sumers are waiting. The lowest prices
on record are made by some works for
bar iron, and structural moves slowly,
while wrought pipe is terribly demoral-
lied. Pig iron is duller than for years
and buyers generally hold off as to rails,
disliking to uphold the combination.
Speculation i'll breadstuffs does not
abate, and with sales of $4,000, 900
bushels here wheat is 1icents higher than
a week ago Corn is shade lower and
oats unchanged, but pork is 90 cents
per barrel higher, and lard Is held at
quarter of a cent per pound increase.
Cotton has not changed and trading is
light. Coffee and oil are fraction
stronger, with small sales. The new
tariff has taken effect as to raw sugar,
and the price is now 500, against
5.l9 week ago, while granulated is
selling at Al, against 6i last week. The
average Of all prices is shade lower
than week ago.
The business failures occurring dur
ing the last seven days number for the
United States eli, aud for Canada 32,
or a total of 2i3, as compared with a
total of 256 last week, and 275 tho
week previous to the last. For the cor
responding week of last year the figures
were 2o6, representing 1S9 failures in
the United States and II IN the Domin-
ion of Canada,

ALBANY, April 4. - Wallie Wilson,

than was first supposed, and it may YET
so hard with the bridge jumper. Will
son was unable to be present at the ex-
animation in court, and his physician
reported that the wound in his stomach
was badly infiamed The testimony ad-
duced thus far goes to show that Bro

TRENTON. April Alt is given out on
good authority that the wages which
have been prevailing in the brick yards
for several years will be reduced before
the brickmaking season for this year
commences. The change will affect
over 1000 employees. The manufact-
urers state that the reduction is neces-
sary, because the price of brick is ridic-
ulously low in comparison with the
wages paid for manufacturing. The
season begins This year about April 13.

Nothing More Expected from the
Recent Flare Up.
NEW YoRK's HARBoR DEFENsEs.

An Amy Oficer Asserts That They
Are Quito Good Enough to Pro-
tecs the City from Bombardment.
Baron Fava Is Confined to His
Home by Illness.
WASHINGTON, April 4.-The italian
imbroglio has not passed into any new
phase. Everything is as quiet as q
summers day in diplomatic circles
here, and nothing more is expected to
Come of the recent fareup.
Speaking OF the defense Of New York
harbor an army officer said to cores.
pondent: "New York can be very sue
cessfully defended, in my Judgment, by
mines and torpedoes placed at or near
the entrance to the harbor and operated
from the shore. l have seen somewhere
a comment that the foreigners would
only have to bring along few old tubs
and send them ahead to grub out the
torpedoes before the feet sailed In, and
they would be safe.
The Forts are Good Enough.
''This is not true. The forts which
were built to defend New York harbor

architecture, and their guns are not of
the latest pattern, but both forts and
guns are good enough for the work re-
quired of them in case of the emergency
we are considering. The guns are
what we know as eight inch converted,
and they are abundantly effective
against ten inch armor at distance
of, say, 1000 yards. With fort on
each side of narrow strip of water
equipped with auch guns, those tor
pedoes will stay where we put them till
we get ready to take them up ourselves
let your mind rest easy on that
point.
Baron Fava Still with Us.
Inquiry last night at Baron Fava's
residence as to whether the baron
would leave for New York by late
train in order to sail for Italy today
was answered by the statement that he
was i'll. The servant at the door would
take no card to the baron and could or
would not say how ill the baron was, or
answeri any questions about his prep
arations for departure for New
York. 1t can be stated, however, posi-
lively, that he will not sail for Europe
today.
