FINANCE And TRADE.
Encouraging Reports from the
Commercial Agencies.
BUSINESS Is SURE TO IMPROVE.

Tho Near Approach of Definite Action on
the Disputed Tariff Question Has AL
ready Encouraged Large Preparations
for Increased Production. =
NEW YORK, Aug. 4.-R. G. Dun & Co.'s
weekly review of trade says: An import
ant change in the state of business is near
at hand. Congress will act on the tariff
question, one way or the other, in all prob
ability within week. If it passes ths
pending bill, or ii it fails, in either case
the definite basis for future business will
enable many to act who are now waiting.
Whether the one course or the other
would stimulate the greater increase it is
certain that either would give relief from
present paralyZing uncertainties and cause
some increase in business, at least for q
time
So much business has been deferred
during the past year, and merchandise
stocks have been so reduced that the
mere approach of a decision, without GER
taiuty what 1t is to be, has this week en-
couraged large preparation for increased
business Ia spite Of outgoing gold and
sinking treasury reserves, small railroad
earnings, some injury to crops and in
creased trouble in the coke regions, the
tone and the outlook are more hopeful
The injury to crops by hot winds and
drought, IL rs great as some report, viii
affect all interests, but at this season it il
never easy to distinguish between local
and general damage. Western receipts Of
wheat were 6,f00,254 bushels, against
4o02, ,G96 last year, which does not encour-
age notions OF a short yield, and exports
were only 1000, 5G3 bushels from Atlantic
exports were only 11s, ABS bushels, against
1891 last year, and receipts 1852, ,Si3,
against a,5S2, ,9I6, but it seems undeniable
that the crop has sustained considerable
injury.
The failures this week have been 219 in
the United States, against 436 for the
same week last year, and IA in Canada,
against "a last year.
Bradstreets' says: While little signifi-
cance is attached to the moderate i'm
provement in trade at San Francisco,
Pittsburg Baltimore, Augusta and At
iunta, when it is added that clearing
house totals for July report twenty-nine
cities with larger aggregates than In July
last year, contrasted with the June re
port, which contained only eighteen cities
with aggregates larger than those in June

influences at work ut the interior favor.
ing an increase in the volume of business.
Wheat has advanced in sympathy with
corn, on increased orders and reports OF
crop damage from abroad, while corn's
sharp advance is due partly to exuggeT-
ated notions of damage from drought.
There is little likelihood of the corn crop
being smaller than in either of the two
preceding years, Notwithstanding our ad-
vices of u per cent. damage in Kansas and
40 per Ce..t, in Nebraska. Southern crop
prospects generally are excellent.

ROMANCE OF THE DEEP.
A Ships Crew Given Up for Lost Now
Smfe In chile.


SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 4.-The British
ship Cambrian Chief, supposed to have
been lost en route to Cuquimbo, and on
which S5 per cent. was paid several weeks
ago for reinsurance, is reported safe in
harbor at Taltal, Chile. A letter from
Captain Thomas was received here yes
terday. Several weeks ago the British
ship Dee, from San Francisco, arrived at
Valparaiso, having on board the wife and
child of Captain Thomas and several of
the crew of the Cambrian Chief.
They reported the Cambrian Chief as
probably lost. During "A terrific gale the
vessel had been dismas.ed. Just at night
fall the Dee sighted the Cambrian Chief
in distress, and succeeded in getting q
boat to her. This boat rescued Mrs.
Thomas, her child and several of the
Cambrian's crew. A second boat frt m
the Dee was seut back for Captain
Thomas and the thers of his crew. The
gale increased, and in the darkness the
Dee lost all trace of her own rescuing
crew and the Cambrian Chief
The second chapter of this thrilling tale
of the sen now comes from Captain
Thomas. He reports that the gallant res
cuers from the Dee reached his vessel in
safety. When the dawn came and the
Dee was nowhere in sight despair seized
the little band OF sailors. But finally jury
masts were riggcd and at last tho Cam
brian Chief was got under way. When
the Cambrian Chief reached Taltal the
saiiorsshad just enough strength left to
shorten sail and drop anchor.

BOLD ATTEMPT AT ROBBERY
The Narrow Escape of Diamond Ex-
pert in New York.


New YORK, Aug. 4.-In one of the busi-

berry was made at noen. Alexander New
besger has n large jewelry establishment
at 1917 Broadway. He is the expert for
the New York jewelers. association. At
all times there are large amount of
precious stones in his show cases and
safes.
A week ago n man walked in the store
and left large diamond to be reset. Two
days ago he carried the set diamond away.
He had given the name of Edward Will
Jams. When this man entered the store
again yesterday Mr.. Newberger was alone,
all his clerks having gone to lunch. Will
Jams entered the store hurriedly, with
every appearance of anger. He had just
made the discovery, ne said, that his
diamond had been chipped in the setting
and he wanted both an explanation and
another diamond.

berger; why I set 1t myself"
The diamond expert took the ring and
put his magnifying glass to his eye. As
he was about to bend his head to examine
1t some slight noise caused him to look
up. That slight noise saved his life, fora
heavy piece Of lead pipe held by Will

he not turned the pipe would have struck
fairly. As it was he was all but stunned,
but still had sufficient presence of mind
to snatch up revolver that lay on a shelf
behind him, at the same time crying
loudly for help.
The revolver or the cry warned Williams
that his plot had failed. In an instant he
was gone, and would have been lost in the
crowded street had not a neigh boring
storekeeper grabbed the running man.
Before Williams could offer any resist
ance detective and a policeman, who
chanced to be near, pounced upon him,
and he was marched to the police station.
Williams described himself as 33 years
old, II laborer, and says he came here
week ago from Denver. Beyond this moth

has been filed with Governor Brown for
the pardon of George Lorher. He was
convicted of arson at Ekton, Cecil
