DuN's TRADE REVIEW.

Better Weather Improves business NJ
Many Points.
NEW YORK, May 30.--R. G.. Dun g.
Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade says:
Better weather has wrought quick inn
provement in business at many points.
Floods still iake some trouble and threat
On more; country roads which nobody can
travel prevent distribution aud collec-
tions, and fears about the crops in many
quarters still check purchases, but clear
ing weather throughout the greater part
of the country has given a stimulus to
trade and generally changed crop pros
poets. Other conditions are generally
favorable. Labor Is on the whole well
employed, with rather less interruption
from strikes than is usual at this season.
The money markets are everywhere well
supplied and easy and at several points
an increasing demand Is noticed.
Receipts at Chicago have increased
though the weather interferes, but general
conditions are much better than q year
ago. Trade at Milwaukee is stimulated
by better weather and the outlook is less
gloomy. AT st. Paul trade is dull. At
Omaha trade in groceries and hardware is
active and improved in dry goods and
shoes. AT st. Louis the foods have se-
riously embarrassed trade, which Is other
wise strong. At Kansas City better
weather brings Improvement At Denver
improved weather causes considerable
gain. Trade is unsatisfactory at Little
Rock. At Minneapolis -four is brisk and
the lumber trade good. AT New Orleans
trade Is retarded by the floods and by a
strike. and In all lines b quiet with money
In very light demand
Wheat Is nearly half q cent higher, ex-
ports being nearly equal to Western re-
ceipts. A speculative corner makes the
price OF May corn fictitious, and oats are
fraction higher, while pork products
have risen little and also oil. Nothing
disturbs the money market.
The business failures during the last
seven days numbered for the United
States, lS5: Canada, Is; total, 19S. as COM
pared with 1s2 last week, It's the week
previous to the last, and 247 for the COR
responding week Of last year.

Washington - the Ell sct that President
Harrison would not issns any proclamA-
ton putting into operation the statute
authorizing him to ili5Sse tolls upon
foreign vessels using the Sault Ste. Marie
canal, but wonld simply order his off,

said that whenever the. tolls were i'm
posed the government would pay them

in the shipping are urging the govern
ment to STOP the rebate system and TO
collect full tolls on all vessels alike or
abolish the soils altogether. The gov
ernment would like to do so but for the
fact that il looks like yielding under
pressure from Washington.

Boston Aldsrmen object to Theatrical
Jokes.
! BosToN, Aug. 5.-The town is laugh
ing at the aldermen again because OF
their new rule that no Boston theatre
shall have license that does MOI prom
ise not to make fun of them. As q result
two theatres, the fremont and Boston,
have failed 10 come to terms. Theatre
managers are always liberal with the
board of alderman and their friends
II naturally follows that with such
q taste for the theatre among
them the aldermen dislike to feel
that at any moment, while quietly
exercising their privilege of censorship
on the play, rude and unseemly joke,
of which Boston alderman is the butt,
may offend their dignity and disturb
their friends and families. Thus they
decided to Lake q stand. The campaign
has opened. The committee sent re-
quest to the manager of every theatre in
Boston to meet with them, as objection
was made out that too many gags
had been Strung at the performances in
several of tie houses at the expense Of
the city council and tending to hold
Its members up to ridicule. The
managers of all the theatres ex.
cept the fremont and the Bos.
ton complied with the requestand agreed
that their attractions should be more
circumspect in the future. The Tremon,
and Boston didn't get licenses and rar
their performances without any. At the
fremont theatre Police COMMISSIONS,
Lee went 90 far in countenancing th,
law breaking as to stand in the lobby
and declare that he did not believe an,
court in this commonwealth would gran
an injunction TO close up any theatre i,
the city under the circumstances. Al
the Boston theatre no jokes were fret
at the aldermen.
