business outlook Unchanged by SpeCu-
latiVe Reaction.
NEW YORK, June l5.-R. G.. Dun &c
Co. weekly review of trade says:
Speculative reaction has not in the
least changed the business outlook.
The fictitious prices made for wheat
and cotton meant no good except for
individuals, and the change to prices
more nearly in accord with actual
relations of demand and supply only
conforms to conditions which have
been we'll known for months. The
attacks on stocks on Wednesday was
so plainly artificial that it's influence
passed with the day, and neither in
foreign relations or in domestic bust
ness was there anything to justify
alarm.
1t is not the time to look for marked
improvement in industries and
the best thing that can be said of them
is that none have as yet been seriously
disturbed by threatening labor diff
iculties.

WASHINGTON, June 4.--The senate had
one of the busiest sessions of this con-
gress today. Late in the day, the filled
cheese bill was passed as it came from
the house by vote of 81 to l3, thus
completing the legislation on this sub
ject. The measure is analogous to the
oleomargarne law. Efforts to add tariff
amendments to the bill we're defeated.
An amendment by Stewart for tax OF
10 cents per pound on wool, was laid on
the table, 80 to u. Another amend
ment by Lindsay, repeating the diff
ferential duty on sugar, was tabled, 81 to
lG. The controversy over the number
of battleehips remains open, Quay's
motion that the senate recede from It's
amendment, reducing the number OF
ships from four to two, being defeated,
Il to SO. The senate also defeated, II to
81, motion by Lodge, OF Massachusetts,
to recede from its amendment relating
to sactarian Indian schools.

street is the probable continuance Of the
recently revived activity and strength of
silver certificates. Predictions Of a sharp
advance in the price Of the metal are in
dulged in, and bullion dealers hope for a
recurrence of the movement that marked
the year 1890 1t is reported that con-
siderable demand for the white metal
has developed in Europe. 1t is under
stood that this inquiry comes at this
moment chiefly from France, and in u
lesser degree from Spain, for coinage
purposes, and that orders have been re-
ceived here direct, the bids being above
London parity. Many smeltera are said
to have sold their product for three
months ahead, and there is, compare
lively speaking, only a slight stock of
bullion on hand. Transactions in silver
certificates upon the stock exchange TO
day amounted to s23G,000 at G914@G93s,
making the aggregate dealings for the
week thus far 100000. Engagements
of 100000 ounces of silver have been
