REVIVAL Or BUSINESS.

New YORK, June 29.-Bradstreets to-
day says:
Dominating business conditions Of the week
ere continued by large demand and further
increases in prices OF iron and steel which
have surprised even the trade. The jump in
rail prices and scarcity Of the higher valua-
tionS for nails have tended 70 produce temper
ary scarcity.
With the further advances in prices of iron
and steel should be coupled the gain Of lc pei
pound for wool, which apparently began its
journey TO higher level about fortnight ago.
Better quotations have also been made foI
cheaper grade woolen goods 2h cents per yard
for prints. bessemer pig billetS. wheat, pork,
lard hogs. shoes and copper, '-''.c declines In
prices arc recorded for flour corn, oats, coffee
cotton naval stores and cattle. Sugar, Goa!
and lumber are practically unchanged.
Business failures in the United States fol
the last six months as reported to BradstreetS,
show naked falling OF in the second quarter
OF the pas: six months as was to be expected
but not such o decline relatively as in the Sec
ond qearter OF 1894 which resulted in total foI
six months Of 1894, or one per cent more thar
last year. But the total liabilities have shrunk
more than SS.C00000 from last year.
This shows OF general revival Of business
at the south but the merchants Of most OF the
leading cities in that region report that de-
mand continues very moderate and collections
are slow. Cotton and fruit crops IN the South
Atlantic states promise we'll and the business
outlook IS reported encouraging. Incessant
rains in Texas bave hurt the crops.

DENVER, COL, June 29.-Five suits
for damages were fled yesterday after
noon in the district court against the
Denver Republican and Rocky Noun

the aggregate is s250,O0o against each
of the papers. The complaints are in
the aldermen and supervisors who com,
prised the water committee of the city
council.
They are Aldermen A. D. Young
Peter Fidel and Daniel Hingley, and
Supervisors Abram Bucliton and S. c.
Phister. Each complainant asks TO,
$4,000. For cause of action the com
plainants recite numerous alleged
libelous utterances of the two papers

SPARrANBUEG, S. c., June 29.-Four
constables went about five miles from
here last night to intercept some whis-
ky. On finding the wagon containing
it, fight took place in which consta-
BILE Pettigrew was shot, and Jack Fish
er and Bill Durham, of Trion, n. c.,
who were on the wagon were killed.
It is also sai5 that the driver, by the
name of Brown, and one of the mules
were also wounded.
The coroner held an inquest yester-
day, and the verdict was that Fisher
and Durham came to their deaths by
gun shot wounds at the hands Of par
ties unknown to the jury. The consta-
bles refused to give testimony and
there were no other witnesses. It is
believed that Fisher and Durham did
not fire at all. Their guns were all
loaded and the testimony was that they
were shot while lying down in the
warOa
