THE WEEK IN TRADE.
THE GREAT COAL STRIKE CAUS.
ES DEPRESSION.
Dradstrcct Says II Decidedly Tn
favorable Condition Is General
and Trade Continues Without
Material Improvement.
Bradstrcct's Weekly Report.

New York special: Bradstreet's Re-
view of Trade for the week says: a
decidedly %unfavOrable condition is
general and trade continues without
material improveme mt. The continued
delay in tariff legislation prolongs the
sitting effect of the wholesale busl-
ness. The great coal strike continues
without any sign Of an early improve
ment. More mi lis. factories and fur
naces have closed their doors for want
Of fuel. The pig iron industry in the
central western states is practically at
q standstill for want of soft coal or
coke. At Pittsburg and vicinity the
scarcity of fuel has greatly s~tagnated
business. There are no new labor
strikes OF any Importance, but almost
all of those previously reported are
yet in existence. Favorable reports
cOme from Duluth, Omaha. Augusta.
Ga, and jacksonville. The stimula-
ton to trade at Lake superior ports is
largely due to the rapid shipments of
bituminous coal which have accumu-
lated, while needed rains throughout
Nebraska have improved that states
crop prospects and caused more active
purchases from Omaha jobbers. At
most western cities there is practically
no change from the depression of last
week. Concessions in prices Of wool
for future delivery fail to secure Fur
chasers from New England manufac-
turers.
The prize movement in various sta
pies continues at the record of last
week and the week before, with con.
cessions in quotations for wool, cotton
goods, cattle, wheat, pork and coffee
and moderate advances for oats and
lard. Steel billets. bituminous and
and anthracite coal. and Bessemer pig
iron advanced, owing to the scarcity of
fuel.
One hundred and eighty-three mer-
camille failures throughout the United
States were reported this week,
against PA last year. The exports of
wheat. flour included, on both coasts,
United States and Canada. amount TO
2, 400, 900 bushels this week, against
3,253,OOO bushels in May, 1893.

COLLISION IN BULGARIA.
The Friends and Enemies of NJ.
StambOulOff Fight FierceIy.

Sofia special: Rival meetings of the
supporters of NJ. S~tambouloff and of
the opposition party were followed by
"A collision between the two parties.
The fight, while it lasted, was fierce
and a number Of revolver shots We're
fired. One man was shot and a num-
Der were more or less injured. The
StamboulOff party was victorious and
proceeded to the residence of their
leader, where they made a demonstra-
ton. Nj. S~tamboulotf thanked them
for their loyal support and made u
speech, in which there were signiti-
cant references. After the fight troops
arrived and occupied the streets in the
vicinity. At Il latc hour the rioting
was renewed and the rioters were
charged by the police before they
were dispersed. Minister pcteroff an
pcarcd at Il window of the palace
while the lighting was going on and
announced that the Prince begged
that the people would refrain from
any demonstration.
The new cabinet has determined to
put al end TO the disturbances which
have occurred since the downfall of
the Stambulotf ministry. The cabinet
met and discussed the steps necessary
to stop the rioting, and afterwards
notified the foreign representatives
that stringent measures would be
taken to preserve order in Sofia and
the provinces.
The disturbances assumed serious
proportions after nightfall. a num-
Der of officials were attacked and
m~altreated. n squad of gendarmes
ATTEMPTED to drive Il crowd back and
fired upon them. They were about to
repeat the v%olley, but were checked
by Il detachment of cavalry. Citizens
are furious against the police and VOW
vengeance upon them. Restaurants
and cafes were thronged sduring the
night, and a number of eftigies of
Stambu.lofT and Petkoff were burned.
The Government has decided that the
police are unable to cope with the
rioters and they will be replaced By
the military.

The Frazer River Continues to Rise
with Direful Results.

Vancouver. B. c., special: The Fra
ger River continues to rise. dealing
death and destruction. The surround
ing valleys are submerged and houses,
outbuildings and ranches are being
swept away. Where but a few days
ago were fields of waving grain is now
Il waste of water. Whole herds of cat
tie and flocks of sheep have been
drowned. Whole villages are floating.

and was drowned, and the hotel later
was swept away. The entire town is
flooded. The whole of Langley Prairie
is under water. As is the Island Indian
Reservation. Four Indians in a canoe
capsized and three we're drowned. The
bodies of three men and "A little
girl were found on Hatztic prairie,
e%ntangled in floating trees. Many
other bodies are reported as having
been seen in the water in other locali-
ties. but tn. current is so swift that
all attempts at rescue have proved
futile. At Morris Steamers are sail
ing over farm sites. The farmers,
fearing to remain longer, are taking
passage on the steamers coming here.
The towns of Chillawack, Harris on
and Centerville are inundated and the
inhabitants are escaping with difficulty.
The Canadian Pacific track is serious
ly damaged for a long distance and
traffic is entirely stopped. There has
been no train from the east since the
23d. The whole town of Nicomcn is
under water. Despairipg of reaching
hundreds of passengers along the Can
adian Pacific are being taken east.
The farmers and ranchers are all
ruined. Many points are cut Off from
communication, the wires being down.

MANY PEOPLE ARE HOMELESS.
Destructive High Waters in Colo.
RADIO Cause Great Damage.

Pueblo, Colo, special: 1t has rained
necessarily for thirty hours all over
the eastern part of the state. The
Arkansas River has broke its banks at
six places in this city. For three
quarters of a mile along the river all
the cellars are flooded. the water be-
ing two feet above the first floors.
The electric cars have stopped run
ming, the works being flooded. Hun
dreds are out in boats rescuing fam
lilies from the flooded houses. Five
railroads are tied up. The flood is
now receding and it is believed all
danger is past. Advices from Salida,
Canon City and Manitou say the rain
fall vas the heaviest ever known,
amounting in various places to four
inches. The rivers are high and the
railroads greatly damaged.
Several thousand people are rem.
dered homeless and property damaged
to the amount of probably $500, 900.
While the Arkansas River was thus
on its mad career a great torrent was
coming down tee mountain river.
About , o'clock the water began to re-
cede and it is believed all danger is
past, but it will be some time before
the streets are passable.
Hundreds Of people, men, women
and children. are congregation in the
city hall waiting until the waters go
down and they a go to their homes.
The mayor has issued a call for help.
One mar was drowned at the lower
end of the Santa Fe while attempting
to cross the water at that point. 1t is
feared several others persisted.
Several adobe houses collapsed.
Nearly four square miles OF the city is
still inundated and the use Of steam
pumps will be necessary to drain the
foundations of the buildings in this dis
trict. Many narrow escapes and
thrilling experiences were had, and
one family OF five people we're carried
a hundred yards in a house and mar
rowly escaped drowning. The weather
is now clear and all danger is be-
lieyed to be past,

ing spared.
