BLOW TO CIGAR TRADE.

Cen. Weyler's Order VIII Seriously Affect
 Factories in the United States.
 CHICAGO. May 2L-With few excep- tions, every manufactory in Chicago engaged in making Havana cigars will be shut down within 90 days, as one result of Gen. Weyler's order forbid ding the exportation of leaf tobacco from Cuba. This is the opinion ex- pressed by some of the largest tobacco importers in the city, who are thor oughly posted on the condition of the market Another result of the Span- ish generals proclamation will be the enforced idleness of thousands of cigarmakers until the embargo is re. moved. What is true here may also. it is said. apply everywhere else in the United States where Cuban tobacco is necessary to the manufacture ofcigars. There is no more Havana wrapper to- bacco in sight than has already been brought to this country, and this can not last longer than three months A few of the largest importing firms will profit immensely by the situation. These firms have been investing largely during the past months in Ha- vana tobacco. fully anticipating the contingency that has arisen.

Woodman proposes that bond notes be issued in of s1O, SEQ, $50. slC0. $500 and sl.OOo They shall be given to holders of United States bonds who deposit their bonds in the treasury in exchange for notes of an equivalent value. The notes shall not bear in- terest, and the interest which may ac- crue on the government bonds while they are on deposit shall be forfeited to the government. MT. Woodman thinks this method of issuing notes would be 8 great convenience in times of de- precision. when it is practically impos. sible to borrow money even on govern ment bonds without the payment of a usurious rate of interest. Holders of government bonds could deposit them in the treasury and get their value in money, and could afterward redeem the bonds, and for the convenience which they enjoy would only lose the interest which the bonds earned in the

The Waiting Condition Still COntinusn9-
 Prospects of Good Cr0p-Fsilurss.
 NEW YORK. May 2a.-R c. Dun & Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade, says:
 The waiting condition which seems to some people nothing better than stagnation. still continues. But there is Q difference. Thou sands of orders and contracts are merely de. ferred because they can be more safely given little later There is nothing exciting in the speculative market for exportable products and the stories about damage to wheat have been numerous, but the general belief regard ing the future supply is fairly reflected ip the decline of i.6. cents per busheL The home market fails entirely to respond to short crop stories, for 1t is known that western reports in- dicate D crop exceeding last years. Cotton speculation lifted the price fraction for day or two, but 1t declined again. and such move- ments are always easy at this season. when stocks can be easily controlled. The European and American mill supplies. with commercial stocks, still exceed maximum consumption for the crop year, and the promise for the coming crop is decidedly good
 There is scarcely any improvement in the demand for finished products, though the bar association has become strong enough to ena- ble makers of steel bars to get slightly higher price. The demand for nails is so light that a reduction of prices is expected.

A Monument Unveiled at Fort Mill, g. C.,
 in Their Honor.
 NEW YORK, May 23.-A Sun special from Columbus, S. C., says: There was unveiled yesterday at Fort Mill, S. C., monument erected in honor of the faithful slaves of the south during the war by an ex-slave owner and an ex- confederate soldier. It was the first public recognition of the gratitude that the people of the south feel to- ward the negroes who, while their masters were away on the fields of Virginia and the west, acted as pro- tectors of the women and children on the plantations. So loyal were they to the trust, that there are few ip- stances of a violation of it Capt. S. E. White, of Fort Mill, a wealthy planter. suggested the tribute to the former slaves and as result the monument, a handsome marble shaft, was raised on the brow of hill on the main street of the village. On the sides not occupied by inscriptions are the figures of a negro woman holding q white child and a negro man seated on a log in wheat field with a scythe resting on his knee.

Uss of the Army In strikes Is Condemned
 by Them.
 WASHINGTON, May 2l.-The first ses- sion of the eighth annual convention of state railroad commissioners was held yesterday. The report of the committee on protection of public interests during railway labor contests was read by E. A. Nose. ley. secretary of the interstate com merce commission. The report con- demns the use of the army in such emergencies, as it does also the in. junction, the weapon which was used so effectively during the Chicago rail- way strikes. Arbitration is regarded as the only safe and satisfactory method, and the report favors the bill now pending in congress providing for compulsory arbitration of controver. sies between carriers and its em. ployes when they threaten to obstruct the operations of the railroads.

Public sentiment in its favor is growing, and the house committee on coinage, which has the subject in charge, is preparing to make an effort to have a suitable bill passed next winter. Meanwhile it may be we'll for everybody to become familiar with the system, if only for the sake of being able to understand the weights and measures which are used by the rest of the world.

 INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, May 2l-The movement toward fusion of the pop ulists and democrats in Indiana seems to be moving on rapidly. and now there is much talk of general fusion upon the whole ticket The basis of the fusion is to be free silver, and the democratic politicians have gone SO far as to receive assurances from popu- list leaders that in case they adopt a sixteen to one plank and nominate a soft money man, either Shandlin or Shievely, the populists will either hold no convention at all, or, holding one, will indorse the democratic ticket and platform. Gov. Matthews seems favor- ably inclined toward the scheme.
