that Col. Jose r.. Reyes, aidc-dc-

at tho foot of tho hills the Spaniards
were met With withcring tire that

men shot fru.n behind the rocks and
trees and gradually gave way before
the Spaniards, who, encouraged by
what they thought to be victory:

tomorrow will say in their weekly review of trade:
Failures for the past week have been 223 in the
Cnited States. against 241 last year, and SO in
Canada, against "a last year.
The sudden change from sleghing to midsummer
heat has tested the prevalent idea that good
weather only was necessary to bring general i'm
provement of business. Everywhere there has
been more retail buying, and in some branches
better demand at wholesale and at the works has
resulted. There is no abatement of the almost
universal disposition to deal with unusual con-
servatism and not to anticipate future wants
To many interested in iron and coke steel
bilets, Bessemer pig and various forms of steel it
may be disappointing that the forming of the
combines ana liking OF prices have not started
again the rush to buy ahead of needs which made
last year so memorable But it is not easy to for
semer pig and gray forge are a shade lower at

makers are meeting, and some propose to produce
steel for their trade at plants of their Their
unsold stocks increased in March 1858 tons

The SILK Association states that 40 per cent of

many are working only half time. The demand

THE STOCK MARKET.

There was considerable strength on the noon In
formal session yesterday, but the tone was
weaker again on the afternoon call, SO there was
no real gain. The close was still weaker.
On the Bond Exchange the light stocks ad-
vanced on report that the combination had been
effected. Edison rose TO $11l14 in consequence,
and an Francisco Gas to $S71a bid.
The Horn Silver Mining Company of Utah
has passed its dividend for the first month of the

to-day.
The officers of the Gold Mining Exchange an
nounce that the listing of mines on the Gold
Mining Exchange differs from the usual methods
OF placing securities before the investing public.
The mine must first be examined by the en-
gineers OF the exchange. If the report is favor
able the property is listed and recon- mended as a
merftorious Investment. Unless the mne-ownerS
consent to this preliminary exam inaton the prop
erty cannot receive the backing of the exchange.
For this reason the securities this board offer
exceptional opportunities to investors who desire
to buy shares in bona-fide mines. The stock now
being offered is treasury stock, limited portion
OF which is being sold only for development pur-
poses.

Explanation.

The arrow flies with the wind. The top figures
at station indicate maximum temperature for the
days; those underneath it, if any, the amount OF
rainfall, Of melted snow in inches and hund redths
during the past twelve hours. Isobars, or solid
lines, connect points of equal air PRESSURE iso-
therms OF dotted lines, equal temperature. The
word "high" means high barometric pressure and
is usually accompanied by fair weather; 'slow''
refers to low pressure. and is usually preceded
and accompanied by cloudy weather and rains.
Lows" usually first appear on the Washington
coast. When the pressure is high in the interior
and low along the coast and the isobars extend
north and south along the coast. rain is probable
but when the "low' Is inclosed with isobars OF
marked curvature, rain south of Oregon is improb-
able. With high" in the vicinity of Idaho and
the pressure falling to the California coast warmer
weather may be expected in summer and colder
weather in winter The reverse of these conditions
Will produce opposite result
