BUSINESS Is REVIVING.
Gain In Great industries. However
Retarded by strikes.

NEW YORK, May l0--Messrs. r. c.
Dun & Co.'S weekly review of trade to-
morrow Will say:
The event of the week is the demorali-
cation of foreign exchange caused by
enormous sales of bonds abroad. Besides
sale of 100000 Manhattan and other
railroad bonds through the syndicate.
large purchases on foreign account have
been recorded for some weeks. so that
the aggregate probably exceeds $4,000 90
since the sale of governments. Safety
Tor the summer means much for all bust
ness, and the syndicate deems ID SO fully
assured that it distributes % per cent.
OF the money advanced by the associates.
which relieves a large amount 10 stlmu-
late operations in securities and products
Crop prospects also have greatly i'm
proved, and this is of still higher i'm
portance, as IL will do much TO determine
the character and volume of all business
after summer uncertainties are over. In
addition. business is reviving, though the
gain In great industries is retarded by
many strikes.
During the week $2.25OOO0 came in from
the interior. showing that money is not
fully employed. the government reporting
an increase OF si2.356,2ss in circulation
since April LIST
The furnaces in the Shenango and
Mahoning valleys. which were making
1000 tons OF iron per week, have stopped.
and also the Illinois Steel Works. the
largest western concern. so that works
are directly affected which produced %
per cent. of the output April lst. The
Amalgamated Association also proposes a
struggle over the new wage-scale.
The output OF iron stll exceeds the
consumption, but has fallen very ma
terially in April. Bessemer pig has been
raised to 5000 at Pittsburg and the
general demand for finished products does
not equal the recent output, but is dis
tinctly increasing. bars and sheets selling
more largely, though structural specifica-
lions are disappointlngly slow. The most
noteworthy gain is In orders for steel

AlgernOn Simon Peter Smith
Was such a modest man,
That all his neighbors soon agreed
To put him under ban.
He talked about his mo1esty
Till every one grew tired.
And longed to see his skeleton
All nicely cleaned and wired.
Whatever Algernon might do.
He'd dcprecate al once:

Yet all the time the hypocrite
Was proud as proud could be
of what he'd done as every one
Could very clearly see
And so he got dislked by all
The folks upon his street,
For undue modesty is quite
AS bad as self-conceit.
