TRADE REVIEW.
Reports Highly Encouraging as to
Money Matters.

NEW YORK, Sept. Pr. G. Dun &
Co., in their weekly review of trade, will
say Tomorrow:
The weeks reports are highly encour-
aging as to monetary matters, although
exports of gold still continue, and also as
to the cotton manufactures, but not as
satisfactory as regards iron. wooden,
leather or silk manufactures.
The speculation in cotton has lifted the
price five-eIghths during the past week,
and quotations here are much higher
than at Liverpool. It seems no longer
possible to hope for a good crop, and
dealers have issued circular predicting
yield of only 100000 bales.
Nothing is clear about the iron and
steel manufacture, but some OF the largest
Pittsburg concerns, protesting to have
orders for many months ahead, are bid
ding for small contracts in Eastern mar
kets at 81 to 81 30 per ton less than the
quoted rate. Some say that it is done TO
depress the market, and again it is
thought that the object may be to buy
materials, but contracts have been made
at the East for $780, 900 of foreign ore, to
be used in Bessemer iron-making at
Eastern furnaces, and the termination of
the Marquette strike sets free about half
million tons more of Bessemer ore
within the period OF lake navigation.
The strike of coke-workers at Connels-
vile seems TO have subsidized. The Iron
Age reasons that nothing can explain the
situation except the large movements in
steel rails not yet made known. For the
first week in many months the average in
prices of iron and steel products shows
no change whatever. though the demand
for finished product is distinctly re-
duced.
The exports of gold though not as large
as they were some weeks ago cause some
disquiet, in view of the disbanding of
the bond syndicate. Money has gone to
the interior rather largely, and there is
considerable increase in volume of COM
mercial loans. Stocks have slightly de-
clined during the week. though the mar
ket shows much stubbornness, and trust
stocks average forty-two cents per share
higher than a week ago, but are now
growing stronger in tone.
Failures for the week have been 2l6 in
the l nited States. against 235 last year,
and 80 in Canada. against % last year.

THE MORA CLAIM.
Draft for the Money Now subject to
the Order of secretary Oiney.

Draft for the Money Now subject to
the Order of secretary OIney.
WASHINGTON, Sept. ~. - The Mora
draft has been paid and the money is
now subject to the order OF Secretary
Olney. Less then two weeks ago, on
Saturday, September 18th, the Spanish
Minister, Dupuy De LONE. gave the
draft on the Spanish finance agent in
London to Acting Secretary OF State
Adee, the time for its delivery according
to the demands of Secretary Olney OK
piring September 10Th, which happened
To fall on Sunday.
Secretary Olney returned from his va
cation the following Monday and took
charge of the case. The Secretary, it is
York for transmission to London on the
first steamer, and the prompt way in
which 1t was paid shows that there has
been no attempt sat diplomatic delay in
settling up the account.
This afternoons cable to the Secretary
announced that the draft was paid to-day.
and that the net proceeds, 81. .449, 900 in
gold, were placed to the credit of the
Secretary OF State in the Sub-Treasury of
the United States at New York.
With the threat of suits impending, q
prominent official this afternoon made
another suggestion. which was that an
invitation pe sent all known claimants to
meet in conference and settle their claims
amicably, otherwise the final distribu-
ton may have to drag It's weary way
through the courts.

ANACONDA COPPER MINES.
Bid of Three Hundred Dollars Per
Share for Stock.

Bid of Three Hundred Dollars Per
Share for Stock.
BosToN. Sept. 27.-The Boston News
Bureau says: Apropos of the negotia-
tions for the sale of the Anaconda copper
mine for S25, 600, 900 to 0,00O 900, it will
be interesting to note what it will sur
prise many people to know that negotia-
tions were undertaken about two years
ago for the purchase of the Calumet and
Hecla copper mines. The management
was bid $500 per share for the controlling
interest, more or less, and all stock that
could be delivered at this price. The di-
rectors, it is understood, could agree to
deliver one-third of the stock, although
it has been popularly supposed that
they owned the controlling interest. The
buyers were willing to take all stock on
the basis of $50 O00. 900. or $500 per share
for the mine. The proposition was seri-
ously entertained, but no trade resulted.
1t may have been the knowledge of these
negotiations which has kept The price OF
Calumet at $3.50 per share, irrespective OF
whether copper was worth nine cents or
in demand at twelve, though the differ
ence between these two prices amounts
to a difference of nearly so per cent in
the company's net earnings.

New YORK, Sept. 2S.-A Washington

U. S. A., retired, better known as

home, Armesleigh Park, on the Chevy

AUSTIN (Tex.), Sept. N.-The procla-
nation issued by Governor Culberson
late last night, converting a special ses-
sion of the Legislative next Tuesday to
pass another law against prize ghting,
was the popular topic to-day. 1t was
said to-day that the Populists and other
political opponents of the Governor may
defeat his plans by enacting a law to go
into effect in ninety days. Representa-
tive Ward to-day said that the Legisla-
ture undoubtedly would pass law to go
into effect Immediately, and that it would
make prize-fghting a felony. He thinks
the law will be passed within week after
the Legislature meets.
