THE BUSINESS SITUATION.
The Ending of the Coal Strike Expected
to Help Things.

New YORK, June 16.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade says:
THE strike of bItuminous coal miners
will end Monday, wherever the au-
thority and advice of their general
organization can end it, and there is
little room to doubt the coal famine
will then begin to abate. Some time
must elapse before supplies of fuel
will enable all works to resume that
have no other reason for suspendino
production. The actual output of pig
iron weekly June / was 81, 5l7 tons,
against 1875, 733 April /, and ia, ,O29 a
year ago, but the reduction of 24S,-
552 tons in unsold stock indicates
quantity nearly double the output ha-
been. taken for consumption.
while business is narrow, it is
comparatively free from losses by
failure, for the liabilities re eported in
failures for the first week of June
were only S2,507, 92s, of which S476, lis
were of manufacturing and l.s7a, 26l

liabilities thus far reported in MAY
were but S13, ,514, 76O, of which s., i4S,-

Members Specializing on That Contin-

WASHINGTON, June 1G.-The declara-
ton of the Kansas Populist conven-
tlon for the woman suffrage amend
ment was not surprise to the con-
gressional delegation from that state.
representative Frederick said that
he would not be surprised to see the
cause succeed at the polls. Not few
Republicans are in favor of it, he
thinks, while the expression of the
Populist delegates may be fairly taken
as showing its strength in that party.
In the event of election of woman
to congress, an interesting question
will be presented concerning her
eligibility. The house is the Judge of
the qualifications of its members. but
1t is thought that a state constitution
would create presumption in favor
OF woman mcmber-elect that would
largely influence the house. Repre-
sentative Baker believes that the

part of the report, but the recon-
mendation that all resolutions be re-
ferred to the committee on resolutions
without debate proved a tug of war
Judge Doster was on his feet In an
instant in the interest of the women.
He denounced the attempt TO throttle
debate as cowardly and an insult to
the women who had asked the con-
vention to be heard.
II. Z. Clemens made a speech along
the same line. After a heated dis
cussfon the Objectionable part of the
report was amended so as to give any
delegate a right to introduce resolu-
tions after the submission of the re-
port of the committee on resolutions.
AT the conclusion of this discussion
the greatest confusion prevailed, and

essary to appoint Leroy, Dick of Mont
