Failures for the past week have been zoe in the
United States against 2O7 last year, and SO in
Canada against 81 last year The volume of busi-
ness has not on the whole increased, nor have
prices appreciably advanced since April l, when
the range for all commodities was the lowest ever
known in this country. Brea stufYs ana iron
products have risen slightly, but some other arti-
cles have declined, and the root of the matter is
that demand for consumption is still below expec-
tations.
The injury done to winter wheat by storms and
frosts at the West would appear from reports 10

mates of condition are published by some State

actual loss. The reports not more gloomy

NEW YORK MARKETS.
Financial.

NEW YORK, n. Y, April l0.-while specu-
lation at the Stock Exchange to-day at intervals
was exceedingly dull, yet the whole the deal
ings were characterized by greater confidence and
strength than on any previous day of the week.
The advance in prices quite general and the
improvement was mainly due to a change OF senti-
ment in regard TO the probable action OF Presi-
dent Cleveland on the Cuban beliigerency matter
The fact that the foreign markets for American
securities are undisturbed by the action of the
House undoubtedly has a good effect Still an
other factor in the days speculation was the re-
duction in the rates OF sterling exchange, which
prevented gold shipments by to-morrow's steamers
ana renders exports of the yellow metal improb-
able for at least fifteen days 10 come.
The bears attempted TO check the upward move
ment in prices by attacking American Topacco and
one or two other specialtles which happened to be
without effective support. Tobacco was sold down
from S414 10 S2ss, and closed at a mere Fractional
recovery. Despite the selling of tobacco the gem
eral market continued strong in the late trading
Manhattan scored the greatest rise, selling up from

tiles TO accord the company increased facilities to
extend its lines. The stock left off at llO11 Sugar
was'conspicuous for strength throughout and rose
TO 119@lls34 on purchases made by houses identi-
ned with officials OF the trust.
The Changers, Chicago Gas, General Electric
Louisville and Nashville and Tennessee Coal ad-
vanced 1(dl per cent but there was nothing in
the remainder OF the list calling for special COM

COAL-Harrison's circular says: "During the
week there have been six arrivals from the coast
colleries, with 1884 tons of Coal: from Australia
and Swansea 9646 tons. The quantity at hand for
the week about 8 90 tons less than the amount
consumed, hence stocks in the yard are being
gradually diminished There is change OF
values perceptble and trade is fair The inclement
weather the past few days has created demand
for domestic uses. thus aiding the retail trade and
the orders for steam purposes run along about he
same. as the weather cuts no figure in this line OF
consumption. The question daily discussed among
Coal importers is the possible spread of the strike
among the Newcastle Coal producers. Nothing
definite has so far developed itself except the re-

UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF AGRICUL-

general forecast:
The following are the seasonal rainfalls to date
as compared with those of the same date last sea-

The following maximum temperatures are re-

San Luis obispo 50, Los Angeles 50, San Diego so,

The following rainfall has occurred in Caifor-
MIA during the past twenty-four hours Eureka
.is. San Francisco. .06, Fresno .02 San Luis Obispo
.l6. Los Angeles trace, San Diego 10, Yuma
trace.
The storm, which was central last evening in
Eastern oregon and Southern Idaho, has moved
southeastward and is now central in Colorado and
Southern Wyoming. An area OF high pressure is
approaching the continent in the vicinity of Eu-
reka, which is causing high northwest winds and
gales along the California coast. Showers have
occurred to-day throughout Southern California,
which have been for the most light although
heavy rain is reported from the valleys about Los
Angeles. Light SHOWS and rains have occurred
throughout Nevada and Utah There has been a
decided fall in temperature throughout Utah and
Arizona, and 1t has become cons derably cooler in
southern California. The temperature has risen
slightly in Northern California, due to the clear
skies which have prevailed in that section. Should
the sky remain clear in Northern California to-
night frosts viii probably occur. 1t now seems
probable, however. that cloudiness will prevent
injury from frost throughout the greater portion Of
this resion.
Forecast made at San Francisco for thirty hours
ending midnight, April II. 1896:
Northern Callfornia-Generally fair Saturday;
warmer in the south portion; brisk northerly
winds high on coas'.
Southern California-Probably fair Saturday;
slightly warmer; brisk westerly winds
Nevada-Fair Saturday; warmer in west por-
tion.
