DUN'S REVIEW.
The Business Outlook Not In
the Least Changed.
The Fictitious Prices Made for
Cotton Not Harmful.
SMALL WHEAT YIELD.
The Government Estimate on
Cotton Favorable.
The Textile Manufactures Are
Making No improvement.

New York. June 13.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'S 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 indi-
viduals. and the change to prices more
nearly in accord with actual relations
of demand and supply only conforms
to conditions which have been well
known for months The attack on
stocks Wednesday was so plainly arti-
fetal that its influence passed with the
day and neither in foreign relations or
in domestic business was there any
thing to justify alarm.
The government report as to wheat
indicated a much smaller yield than
anybody really expects, but that has
become so much the rule that the re-
port has had no influence and the prin-
cipa1 effect was the serious depression
caused by large sales in anticipation OF
the report. which seemed to be thor
Oughly known in advance to some spec

condition which have governed the
movements during the whole year The
government estimate as to cotton was
unexpectedly favorable and has caused
a decline Of more than y cent in 2. sin
gle week
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 the threatened labor diff
hculties.
1t seems not inpro bable that all diff
hcUlties may be averted. except, per
haps. the controversy about wages OF

In speaking of the approaching Henley
rerattn an Englishlnan said recently.
English rowing men are not al all easy
in their minds III the matter Of foreigners
at Henley regatta and think with reason.
lit is one thing to be hospitable to stran-
gers, but the adnOniuion to commence
ones charity a6 home must not be disre-
garded. I5 has been correctly pointed out
that Henley regatta is the great occasion
that English amateurs have for a display
of native oarslnsuship, and this display
takes places in the various guises Of souls,
pair, fours and eights. AS SO many of our
best men thus dissipate their powers in the
course Of each day they are fairly on a.
equality, but they are placed at an i'm
mense disadvantage against foreign crew
who have been preparing themselves a long
while beforehand Tor a particular event ana
reserve themselves solely for it. I0 is thus
that the presence of a foreign crew becomes
a disturbing element. "

4 GOLD PLANK SURE
Tt is Said With ono EquivOca-
ton" In the Platform.
The Matter Seems to Be Prac-
tically Settled.

St Louis, June 13.-It has been set
tied as near as can be in advance of
the convention that the money plank
shall be for the gold standard.
The incoming delegates from every
section have swelled the sentiment for
an unequivocal declaration for the gold
standard and against the free coinage
of silver. There have been arrivals Of
some prominent men among them be-
ing Senator Quay, Cornelius M. Bliss,
General Horace Porter, Hon. Chas.
Foster and General Grosvenor-
The declaration in favor of the gold
standard in the Republican platform
viii be very emphatic and uneQuivOcal-
When the men from the east reach st.
Louis they viii find that the close
friends of Major Mckinley are ready
to offer them a financial plank that
they can agree upon without hesitan-
cy- Several drafts of the platform have
been prepared, and lit is now believed
that form has been secured which
viii be satisfactory. 1t viii declare
against the free coinage of silver unless
it should be brought about by interna-
tiOnal agreement. No ratio is mention
ed, in this respect it is more acceptable
to the gold men. 1t will also declare
the Republicans are against the de-
basement of the currency and therefore
in favor of the present gold standard.
The Republican party viii be given
credit for having brought about the
reSunDtiOn act which has always main
tanned a parity whether of coin or pa
per and that the standard Of money
should be as it always has been and is
now, equal to that of the most enlight-
ened nations of the world.
These declarations embOdy the wish
es of the friends of Mckinley, and the
men who are now here approve them.
IF the resolution should be changed
it viii be by the committee on resolu-
lions or the convention itself, but this
is not likely as it contains all that is
asked for except by the most extreme
gold men who want a straight
single gold standard declaration
and nothing more. There is some op-
position to the reference to an interna-
tional agreement, but those who desire
that language inserted in the resolu-
ton, say the party should not place it
self i'm opposition to the coinage of sill
yer under any International agreement
if such an arrangement could be made
but that the party IS not to be pledged
to bring about suCh an agreement.
which is a contention of some Of the
delegates 1t is believed by those who
have examined the proposed financial
resolution that it will meet every de-
mand that can be made by the eastern
men and that it viii be Incorporated
