Unfsvorable Reports From the silver Con-
ference Have Affected Business.
NEW YORK, Dec. 3.-R. G. Dun q Co.'s
Weekly Review Of Trade says The be-
ginning OF gold exports in November and
their expected continuance this week, the
death OF Mr.. Gould, and unfavorabls re-
ports from the silver conference, have
somewhat affected all speculative mar
kets. There are also some symptoms OF
diminished activity In business, and while
manufacturers are generally occupied with
orders taken sometime ago, there In more
complaint that new orders do not come
forward as was expected.
While the volume of trade Is still very
large, 1T Is not surprising that there
should be somewhat less activity during
the remainder of the year except in holt
day lines. At the same time there is gen.
sral confidence that business early next
year will be active and prosperous.
A set back in speculation would be by
no means an unmixed evil, but there are
no signs OF distur bance at present, though
the money markets are working little
closer.
Boston reports stronger money mar
ket, increased activity in dry goods, par
ticularly in staple cottons, which are ad-
vancing, and the clothing trade keeps the
woolen mills busy. Liberal contracts for
next season in boots and shoes are re-
ported, and wool is firm.
Iron is weak, with pressure to sell some
southern brands, and in structural, plate
and bar iron not much new business is
seen, though IL is hoped that the slacken-
Ing OF demand Is but temporary.

LIEUT. gov. HALLE TALKS.
ne Never Questioned the Legality Of the
Election of Gov. Russell.


Election of Gov. Russell.
SPRINGFIELD, Mass, Dec. 3.-Lieut.-
Gov. Halle yesterday consented to make a
brief statement to the public of his posi-
ton. He said that he had never for a mo-
ment questioned the legality OF the cleo
tion OF Governor Russell; that he never
intended to make any contest concerning
the same. Many friends and influential
members of his party have strongly urged
him to do so for the purpose OF ascertain
ing the number OF blank votes not count
ed which were intended for him.
He has given their views careful consid-
GRAFTON, but his mind Is not changed from
the first. He sent his congratulations to
Governor Russell the day after the
election and supposed the whole matter
TO be settled, and ii was not until reports
reached him from various parts OF the
state regarding the double marking OF
the ballots for governor, and the positive
opinion expressed to him by those in
whose Judgment he placed great conf
dence, that there was not the slightest
doubt OF the fact that he came fixed in
the belief that enough votes had been
thrown out "a blanks, which, IL counted
according to the intent OF the voters,
would have changed the result in the
state.
He has never authorized any publica-
tion OF his views until now. He regrets
exceedingly the excitement, personal
feeling and friction caused by this un-
fortunate affair, and strongly deprecates
any and all extreme and Injudicious crit
icism and comment.
