New York, Nov. 14-R. G.. Dun and

weekly review of trade
, The scare about gold exports had no
real Significance and although s2,2500OQ
more will go out, the stock market has
been recovering. The collapse of Kaf-
fir speculations abroad has forced
many to realize on Americans held. and
the impression that our government
may have to borrow again also operat-
ed to our disadvantage. Stocks are
so cents per share stronger than a
week ago.
Wheat perplexes the oldest inhabit-
ant. There Is really little reason to ex-
pect yield larger than last year, but
western receipts, S,202,S64 bushels,
against 4,026,639 last year, do not mean
scarcity of wheat Probably it Is true
that the attempt TO induce farmers to
keep back their wheat In July has end
ed, as usual, In much bigger sales at
lower prices In November, and prices
have now declined so far that the first
time in many months, Atlantic exports
exceed those of year ago. The de-
cline, nearly l cent is not much but
does not mean confidence in advance

supply will largely exceed all home and
foreign demands
The output of pig iron Nov. 1, was

larger than ever before, and continu-
ance OF the same production for six
weeks more would make the half years
output 5,350,000 tons. about 45O, 900 tons
greater than any other half year. The
startling fact is that the demand for
products of iron and steel falls off. not
withstanding the increase In OUTPUT of
pig, and though only few concerns
have closed or reduced work or wages
ON account of lack of orders, prices are
sinking, having declined 81 per cent

washington, Nov. 1.-THE Spanish
Minister, Senor Dupuy De LONE, has
called the attention Of the state de-
partment to the rumor that the Ameri-
can steamer Laurada had violated the
neutrality laws in landing an armed
iorce on Cuban SOIL Secretary Olney
mas transmitted Senor De Lome's pro-
test to the treasury department and
secretary Carlisle today telegraphed
collectors of customs along the Allan

from New York, to take q cargo of
pyrites cinders for Philadelphia, ar
rived In this harbor this afternoon. The
vessel should have been in Charleston
several days ago by her contract. but
she was delayed in Cuba by taking on
passengers. Upon her arrival. libel
proceedings against her for $40. 900 were
begun by Messrs. Trenholm and Rheet
on behalf of John Z. Kerr of New

freight was spoiled on board the
Laurada by reason of delays occasioned
by the vessel stopping to take on pas
sengers in Cuba.
If there are, or have been. any con-
traband goods aboard of her. there are
no signs of 1t. Captain Hughes said to-

WILL BORROW MORE GOLD.
New York Bankers viii Probably Dc
Called I,nnn for SOS Nnn 600

Called Upon for S2s.OOO.OOo.
New York, Nov. 15.It is rumored
that the treasury department has COM
municated with New York bankers
with view to making an arrangement
for the restoration of the gold reserve.
The proposition is that when the reserve
falls to $75,000.000 the banks shall fur
nsh $25,O00,0O0 in gold, for which they
will receive per cent. bonds on a 3
per cent. basis.
The idea Is regarded with favor by
the banks, as they would rather supply
gold than experience another financial
disturbance.
Thomas b. Reed, who is slated for
speaker of the house of representatives,
has spent some time in New York re-
Gently discussing currency questions
with bankers. He, 1t Is said has in
timated that he will oppose the pro-
posed retirement of the greenbacks by
an issue of bonds. He found that bank
ers as a rule objected to the wiping out
Of the greenbacks If there is to be no
other form of money to take their place
While the treasury statement shows
$346, ,OQO, 900 of greenbacks outstanding,
experts estimate that the amount in
actual circulation Is less than $500, ,OOO,-

The counterfeiter always attempts to

more frequent renewal of the currency
would therefore decrease the possibility
of successful counterfeiting to a very
great extent.

Bismarck. N. d, Jan. 3O-The family
of Peter Olsen, consisting of himself,
wife and three children, the oldest a
boy aged 16, together with one Bathga,
a hired man employed 10y Olsen, was
wiped out by fire early this morning.
Olsen was a prosperous farmer and
wheat buyer, living about mile south
Of the village Of Sterling, so miles east
of here.
AT O'Clock this morning the resi-
dents of Sterling saw a bright light in
the direction of Olsen's farm. II was
thought to be a burning haystack.
Shortly after the fire was seen, neigh
hors started for OIsens place 10 inves-
tigate. Upon arriving the farm house
was found burned TO the ground and
the five bodies of the Olsen family
We're found among the debris. The
hired mans body was found in the eel
lar. The only plausible theory is that
the fire originated from an overbeated
stove and that prior to the fire the oc-
cupants of the residence were suffo-
Gated by the escaping coal gas.

HOLDS THE TRACK.
Sullivan and His Wife Show Great
Pluck.

Solomonyille, Ariz.. Jan. SOP. Sulli-
van, who built house on the track of
the ella Valley, Globe & Northern rail-
way, is proving very troublesome to
the railroad company. Yesterday Dis
trict Attorney Jones proceeded on the
train to Fort Sullivan and convinced
the garrison that the law was being
violated and when the train arrived,
despite Sullivan's protests, the shanty
was removed off the track by the COM
pany's employees. 1t was thought that
this would end the difficulty, but this
morning Sullivan appeared before JUS
tice Parks here to answer to a charge
of placing distractions on a railroad
track, a grave offense under Arizona
statutes. Sullivan pleaded for and OBJ
tanned a continuance till Friday. When
the train arrived at Sulhvan's ranch
this morning another house had been
erected on the track and some fifteen
or twenty men were at work on it.
Sullivan was there and forbade any one
to touch it. Sullivans wife upholds her
husband.
The officers went to the scene of action
ON train and arrested Sullivan and his
wife, when the trafnmen proceeded to
tear down and remove the second OBJ
structionS. The prisoners were brought
here and will be taken before a justice
tomorrow. 1t remains to be seen whether
or not Sullivan will again build the
Shanty on the track.

JAPS REFUSED.
MOST REMARKABLE EVENT OF
THE PRESENT WAR.
Several Foreigners Arc Said to Have
Assisted the Chinese, Which May

Route.

London, Jan. 3O.-A dispatch to the
Times from Shanghai says the Chinese
military and naval commanders tele-
graph via Chez Foo that at / O'clock
on the morning of Jan. 26 the japanese
fleet advanced upon Wei Hia Wei il
two divisions of nineteeni ships. The
search lights betrayed their presence
and the guns of the Chinese fleet and
shore batteries opened fire on the first
division of the enemies ships when
they were within 1000 yards of the
Chinese fleet. The latest Chinese man
of-war and torpedo boats made a dash
at the enemy and after firing heavily
drove them off.
The first japanese division was to
the northwest and the second division
southwark. The Chinese claim to have
injured several of the enemy's ships.
At the same time the japanese made
an attack upon Wei Hal Wei from
Ming Hal. This was a surprise from
the west. The alarm was given. how
ever, and the Chinese repealed the at
tack. The Chinese lost twen.ty-seven
sailors. The Japanese loss amounted
to more than 300 killed and wounded.
Several foreigners are said to be as
Sisting the Chinese.

are near Yang Kao. He adds that the
