NEW ORLEANS. Jan. 31-The Lou
isiana delegation to the Republican
national convention at ST. Louis has
practically been decided upon. McKin-
ley men, notwithstanding the fact that
the Reed men gained the ascendancy
in the state convention. claim to have
the majority All of the districts have
either elected delegates, or where there
is no opposition held caucuses. The re-
suit is that Mckinley has L delegates
out of the 10 to be sent. Reed has two
already elected, and a contest in the
Fourth district over the others.
Ex-Governor Yarmouth said today:
kellogg will never have seat in the
national convention. We have a large
number Of af1davits to the effect that
Kellogg was in a side room at the con-
vention and bought the members like

at large to the national convention. He
does not vote in this state and has
not lived here for a number Of years.

New York. Jan. 31.-R. G. Dun & Cos
Weekly Review of Trade, which issues
tomorrow, will say:
Though business is still waiting, there
are some signs Of definite improvement.
1t is now believed that the first payment
for bonds will cause no further pressure,
and the money markets are easier as re-
SDectS loans on collateral, though the
difficulty of making commercial loans
still checks operations. But large ma
TURTLES at the end of January have been
met more satisfactorily than was ex-
DeGted. and meEchantS and bankers re
pest that the Signs promise a, good spring
trade. No increase appears as yet in the
demand Tor the principal products unless
for some forms of iron and steel, in which
good contracts have been made this week
and uncertainty as to congressional ac-
ton still affects industries and com
merce. but the Increase in inquiry and
the reports OF dealers are deemed assur-
anceS OF large trade coming whenever the
uncertainty is over.
Signs OF improvement in the iron and
steel business are gratifying even though
they spring from combinations which
have raised the price Of coke and al
lotted the output of lake iron ore. There
is also a better demand for wire nails,
after long stagnation, and also for sheets.
Pig iron is weaker, southern works

average from all products is practically
unchanged and ia per cent. below the
highest last year. Coke production has
again been cut down 1895 tons in a
single week. Minor metals are strength
ened a shade by speculation.
Sales of wool at the three chief mar
kets have diminished of late, manufac-
turers buying only for present needs.
Wheat has again advanced about 8
cents for cash but only ~ for May, al
though Atlantic exports are little larger
than a year ago, and for four weeks
flour included. have been S,4O3, 765 bushels,
against 7,357SS4 last year. Neither this
fact nor the continued excess of western
receipts for the week, 2,3S1912 bushels
against 1,226,012 last year, explain an ad-
vance for which the basis or the excuse
must be sought in foreign advices.
Failures this week have been 404 in
the United States. against 354 last year,
and 70 in Canada against 81 last year.

Kreuger's Statement.

LONDON, Feb. 1.-The Times this
morning has q dispatch from Pretoria
containing a long interview with
President Kruger, in which he repeat
ed that he had long considered how to
meet the wishes of the Uitlanders. The
executive council held today discussed
an educational scheme acceptable to
them, and against the objections of its
members. He had refused to be influ-
enced by recent events, and it had
been decided to submit the scheme to
the volkesraed, and also a scheme for
local government in johannesburg.
He had given no promise, he said. on
the question of the franchise. TIE gov
eminent must discover which were the
loyal elements of the Ujtlander popu-
lation. The franchise could not be
given to every new conner, for they
arrived by thousands every year, and
they would swamp the original popu-
lation.
The Times correspondent adds: 1.-THE
interview left upon me the impression
that as far as possible without leopard
iZing the interests of the burglars,
President Kruger is anxious to meet
the wishes Of the loyal new corners.
Next Monday has been definitely fix
ed for the investigation of the charges
against the political prisoners"
