BRADsT2EETS REPORT.
Usual Midsummer Dizziness Empha
sized by Chicago Convention.

General Falling Off in Prices of Staples
Increase in Railroad Earnipgs Only
Encouraging Feature.
New York, July 10.-Bradstreet' to-
morrow will say: The usual midsummer
dullness in general merchandise markets
has been emphasized by the unfavorable
weather, the uneasinsss at the attitude of
the Chicago platform toward the ftnan-
conservatism of merchants.
The volume of business appears small
Ter than last week, the merchandise col
lections moro unsatisfactory and there is
a disposition among jobbsrs to look more
closely after credits.
Among two dozen staple articles, the
prices of which form a gauge of the
general tendency of values. only one, print
cloths shows any advance over last
week; coffee. petroleum, iron, steel, coal
and lumber being conspicuous among
those, the prices for which are I'M
changed. The general tendency of the
price movement is downward, the ad-
vance in prints being the result of the
shut down.
At the sast ths more encouraging
trade features include the opening of
new prints for fall delivery, and prepa-
ration for the road travellers more par
tioularly among dry goods jobbers. Lake
freight rates are lower and shipments
heavier.
Jobbers at Augusta report some Inn
provement over May and June. At Min
neapolis merchandise Is moving more
freely, with fairly satisfactory orders.
At st. Lo us there have been more or
ders received for hardware. dry goods
and shoes than were anticipated. At
Chicago the increases in trade have been
very slight, but at Omaha gains are not
ed in the movement of drr goods, shoes
and groceries. Relatively th, most favor
able advioes come from Baltimore, whose
dry goods jobbers report that statesmen
are receiving encouraging orders, and
whose dealers IN clothing and shoes re-
gard the past three weeks business as
pointing to better fall trade than in
1895.
The exports of wheat, (donr included
| as wheat, from 10th coasts of the Unit
cd States and Montreal, this week, aggre-
gate 9, 167, 900 bushels, against q 200 in
the week year ago.

While Mr.. Bryan was not free trader,
he favored the lowest tariff consistent
with the necessities Of the government.
II 9 was placed by Speaker Crisp upon the
ways and means committee, an unusual
honor for new man. When the 53rd
Congress met Mr.. Bryan had achieved q
reputation as staunch supporter of free
silver and when President Cleveland con-
vened that Congress extraordinary
session, in the autumn Of 1893, Mr..
Bryan was Mr.. Bland's efficient lieuten-
ant in leading the opposition to tho re-
peal of the purchasing clause of the Sher-

| The first open revolt in the convention
against the domlnation of Gov. Altgelu
manifested itaelf when the governor,
as chairman Of the Illinois delegation.
announced 48 votes of the state for ad-
Journment. Harry Donovan of Chicago,
who has been Boes man from the start,
| jumped up to challenge the accuracy of
the count. His note OF defiance was re-
eeived with applause by the Chicago
crowds IN the gallery. Cheers followed
each negative vote. The vote was "a
| ayes and II noes, three absent. Under
the unit rule this made 48 nays. Doho-
van and others disputed its correctness,
The chairman ruled in favor of the gov
eFnor. When the call of the roll had pro-
ceeded far enough to show that the mo-
ton for adjournment was to prevail,
the crowd without waiting for the
clerk went on with the roll call. but did
not always wait for reply, but set
down the state as voting aye. In this
way the result was arrived at and an
| nounced as carried in the affirmative.
! The chairman then stated at 9. 30 p.
IN. that the convention was adjourned
until 10 a. IN. tomorrow.
Who VIII be Vice President.
Chicago, July 10.--A conference on the
| Vice PRESIDENTIAL nominee was held ut
the Sherman house lata last night, Near
~ every state except the gold states were
represented. The door was carefully
guarded and little leaked out as to the
deliberations. At IL. 80 no decision was
reached as to who should DO placed in
nomination. The concensus Of opinion
was that the candidates from tho South
and the states east of the Alleghanies
were unavailable. This killed the
chances of Silbey, national committee
man Sewall of Maine, George b. Williams
and several candidates from the South.
Matthews seems to stand the hest test of
criticism better than the other candi-
| dates.

his oratory, and his ability TO sustain
himself with credit against the ablest
