THE WEEK IN TRADE

BY DUN & co.
Wheat Receipts at Western Points
On the Increase-Hay Crop Con-
sidered Good-Woman Shot by a
Marshal-Other Items.
Dun & Co.'S Weekly Review.

r. g. Dun & Co.'s Weekly Review of
Trade says: The weakness of wheat,
which had declined 2.1O cents, and of cot
ton, which is an eighth lower for spot,
though less for futures, has full explana-
ton in decidedly good crop prospects.
Returns of harvesting, thus far support
the best estimates as to wheat, and the
condition of cotton has been decidedly
improved by rains.
Wheat receipts at western points have
been 1886, ,692 bushels against only 7S7. .29l
last year, and for three weeks past 9.551,-
27S bushels against 1854 ,005 last year,
and while Atlantic exports have sharply
increased, amounting to 7,S67,527 bushels
flour included) against 4, 912 ,437 for three
weeks of June last, there is no reason to
doubt regarding the sufficiency of sup
plies.
The hay crop has also been exceedingly
good at the west. 1t is not wholly well
come but necessary conclusion that
prices for the great staples are not likely
to be higher.
Failures for the week have been 127 In
the United States against 256 last year,
and "a in Canada against % last year.

FAILS TO PUT sHARKEY OUT
The San Francisco Sailor Gives Corr
bett a Hard Fight.

That San FranciscOans have lost none
of their Old time interest in Corbett re-
ceived ample demonstration on the night
of the Oath, when the crowd began to as
semble to witness the four round cont est
between the champion and Tom Sharkey,
the sailor. Ten thousand people were
present when the contest was called.
Corbett was favorite at odds of 10 to s.
The champion had announced that he
weuld knock the marine out in four
rounds.
During the last two rounds Sharkey
was the aggressor and Corbett was forced
to clinch to keep the sailor from fighting.
1t was the opinion of all who saw the
fight that Sharkey more than held his
own and was the freshest of the two at
the end of the contest. 1t is practically a
victory for Sharkey, who had to be held
by the police to keep him from going at
Cerbett.
Corbett seemed to be greatly exhausted.
The sailors adherents allege that Corbett
himself gave the signal for the police in
terGerence when he found he was getting
the worst of it.

Big Robbery Prevented.

The boldest attempt at bank robbery
ever made on the Pacific coast has just
come to light at Los Angeles. The object
of the attack was the heavy steel vault of
the Constitutional Bank. one of the largest
financial institutions of its kind in south
ern California. To reach it the robbers
dug tunnel 1O2 feet in length, extending
from a-street adjoining the First National,
running thence under the cellars of three
other banks. This tunnel had progressed
to point directly beneath the vault when
its. existence. When the scheme was dis
covered the burglars had begun to remove
the brick masonry supporting the steel
vault. Only one suspect has thus far
been arrested.

BRITAIN APPEALS TO US.
Asks the United States to Secure the
Release OF Harrison.

Release OF Harrison.
A dispatch to the New York Herald
from Washington says: British Ambas-
sador Pauncefote and Minister Andrade of
Venezuela, called separately on Secretary
Olney and conferred with him touching
the arrest 10y Venezuelan troops of British
Surveyor Harrison on the British Vene-
Zuelan boundary. 1t is understood that
Mr.. Pauncefote, under instructions, re-
quested the friendly Intervention of the
United States to secure Harrison's release.
This course was necessary, as diplo-
matte relations do not exist between
Great Britain and Venezuela. The action
is similar to our request to Great Britain
to look after the interests of John Hays
Hammond at Pretoria, where we have
no representative. 1t is believed
Olney has already taken steps to COM
municate with Venezuela on the subject.
Mr.. Andrade's visit, in the absence of
official news from Venezuela, led to the
expression of opinion by the minister that
the affair had been magnified and was
lacking in serious indignity or wrong 10
the British.
1t was the opinion of those best qualified
to Judge that the arrest of the crown sur
veyor was not the direct act of the Gov
eminent of Venezuela, but was due to the
hasty and probably irresponsible act OF
some local agents, acting under misap-
prehenson, and that when proper repre-
sentatons were made to the Government
at.Caracas, the latter will apologize.

ENTOMBED IN A NINE
GREAT CAvE-lN AT WILKES.
BARRE, PA.
The Victims Are Buried Under an
Enormous Pile Of Debris, and 1t
Will Probably Be Week Before
Their Bodies Can BE Recovered.
Buried i'm a Mine.

While ninety miners were at work in
the Red Ash vein of the twin shaft at
Pittston, Pa, about O'clock on the
morning of the 2Sth, the roof caved in
and it is believed that all of the men
perished.
About two weeks ago the surveyors re-
ported to General Superintendent Law
that the mine was squeezing" and that
unless steps were Immediately taken 10
timber it a cave-in or fall might be looked
for. Superintendent Law lost no time,
but at once put number of timbermen at
work TO brace the falling roof.
The men were at work propping up the
roof when the fail occurred. The alarm
was Immediately given by the ringing oil
fire bells and rescuers were put TO work
without delay.
More than two-thirds of the victims
We're married men and leave families.
The conclusion was SO great that it was
heard for miles around. The foundations
of nearly every building in Pittston were
shaken, and windows and doors ratified as
in tornado. In the houses near to the
mine people were thrown from their
beds.
The first thought was that a great earth
quake had occurred, and the inhabitants
rushed pell nell from their houses. The
ringing of the fire bells and the shrieking
of the big mine whistle soon told the
story.
Crowds of people gathered about the
mouth of the shaft and numbered thou
sands by daybreak. Stalwart men stood
appalled,, and frantic women who had
husb bands or sons in the doomed mine
waited in despair.
When it was given out that there was
little or no hope of rescuing the men alive,
women and girls tainted and were borne
away senseless.
A conference of prominent mine super
intendentS from all over the Wyoming
valley was held, and the situation in the
mine was discussed. The conclusion was
reached that to prevent further loss of life
the work of rescue must proceed with
care. 1t is also the unanim Gus belief OF
the e;superintendents that the mine is now
a tomb, and that it will be some days be-
fore the rescuerS reach the bodies.

ON Coal ana supplies.
A special from New York says: Uh-
less significant signs fail, the squadron OF
United States warships just now stationed
in the harbor of New York will be dis
patched soon on important missions.
Those who should be in position to
know say the destination will be the coast
of Cuba. During the last week work On
all the vessels has been doubled in re-
sponse to special order received from
the Secretary of the Navy. The nature OF
this order cannot be ascertained.
Every boat of the North Atlantic squad
ron except the New York, which is still
in dry dock, was taking in coal. On the
Newark, Montgomery, Cincinnati and In
diana there was considerable stir and
hustle. From dawn until darkness boats
laden with provisions crowded alongside.
The barges were kept busy piling coal
into the bunkers.
Officers admitted that services were
omitted on board the ships on Sunday,
but explained it by the necessity of MAX
ing repairs SO that the ships might be in
condition to take the naval militia on
their annuul cruise early in July.

Jailer Walsh had just served Smith with
