GAIN in BUSINESS.
Continued Signs Of Improvement Are
Apparent All Along the Line-Dun
4 COmpany's Weekly Review.

New York, June 1s.-R. G. Dun & Co.
will say in their Weekly Review Of
Trade tomorrow:
Failures for the week have been 276
IN the United States against 22S last
year and rs In Canada against 81 last
year. There are continued signs that
gain In business has begun. Stocks
nave gone higher than they were be-
fore the agricultural break ten days
ago. wheat and cotton are in better de-
mand. There is more confidence in
monetary circles. and the tendency to-
ward shrinkage in great industries
seems, In some measure at least, to be
checked. While the outcome Of the
democratic convention Is uncertain and
the great crops are not yet wholly be-
yond danger. sure and strong i'm
provement could hardly be expected,
but the tone In business circles has
grown distinctly more hopeful. Clear
ing house exchanges for the past week
are 3.4 per cent. less than last years
ana only 81 per cent. less than In 1893.
June failures have been neither as nu-
merous nor as large as last year or in
1894.
The boot and shoe industry not only
holds Its place as the most prosperous
OF the great industries, but reports
some gain In both orders and prices.
Textile manufactures do not gain.
There is rather more hopefulness, which
ls relt In the arrest Of the decline in
wool. Prices average no lower than
June l, and sales do not decrease. Man
ractures wait orders which clothiers
nope soon, but are not ready to give,
and the only changes in price are de-
clines Of to 10 per cent In some very
low grade goods. The only change in
cottons> Is a reduction in bleach shirt
ings In standards to the lowest price
ever reached. though the change dis
closes no new weakness, but belief
that the time has come when sales can
be effected by reduction, and large sales
are now reported. Stocks of dealers
are believed to be so low that replenish-
ment would make a great change in the
condition of the industry.
The waiting in iron and steel brings
slightly lower average Of prices, the
lowest since April /. and only 1.S per
cent. above the lowest of the year,
thougho the combinations make n
change In quotations. Beams are quot
ed delivered instead Of at MILL but num-
erous contracts are kept back; con-
sumption of wire nails are current
prices has so declined that American
wire rods are offered at competing
prices In England; scarcely anything is
done in iron bars because steel bars at
Lie take the business; and ese billet pool
Is still undersold about 81 by middlemen
while many works are putting up steel
plants of their own. Plates are weak
and also sheets, and orders for rails,
though numerous, are not large. South
ern No. / is offered 81 below Pennsyl-
vania pig and grey forge is 10 cents
lower at Pittsburg. Since coke was ad-
vanced 81 per ton, the oven at work have
decreased 33 per cent. and the weekly
output 6O,463 tons or per cent.

PIERPONT'S PATRIOTISM.
Bought the Bonds in Order That thu
Government Might Have Gold.

New York, June 19.-The committee
Of the United States senate appointed
to investigate the sale Of government
bonds resumed their session in this city
today. Mr.. j. Pierpont Morgan stated
that he had no private bargain where
by any government officer or officers
had any personal (outside Of the gov
ernment's> interest in the sale Of bonds.
In other words, he declared that no off,
Ger was to participate in the syndi-
cate.
Mr.. Morgan said further: II consider
that II the market price fell and my as
sociates would have to take all the
bonds we contracted for: II we could
not sell, or II any Of the people who
were with us failed to take their shares,
we would be liable to the government
for the full amount. wished the gov
eminent to have the gold. Irepeat that
my sole object was to aid the govern
ment and avert a panic. This is true"

VIEWS TO THE DEDICATION OF
CONVENTIONS.


conventions have been swayed to views
and declarations not the most approved
by the mass Of people, nor progressive
for their welfare.
We do not derogate to ourselves one
iota Of intelligence, patriotism Of cour-
age than Is possessed by any other fell
low citizens. But we feel that the time
has come for the performance Of a duty
to the country; and for our part, though
we stand alone. we will make an en-
deavor in the direction of that duty.
Parties may outlive their usefulness; the
truth never becomes obsolete. Every
general convention Of freemen has the
right to affirm the truths of past knowl-
edge and present requirements; and II
the enforcement of these truths shall
make necessary departure from party
organization the people have this right
and will exercise 1t until old parties
shall return to the truth or new parties
shall be created to effect it into law.
MADE NO MISTAKE IN WITH
DRAWING.
II the voices which have sounded to us
from every state in this union are an
indication Of the real feeling, this year
is the appointed time for the people to
assert themselves through such medi-
ums as may give promise of the achieve
ment Of justice. But whether we are
mistaken or not concerning the general
sentiment In the United States, we have
not mistaken our own duty in with
drawing from the Republican convent
ion, feeling that 1t Is better to be right
and with the minority in apparent de-
feat than to me wrong with the majori-
ty In apparent triumph. We hold that
in the great work of social evolution In
this country. monetary reform stands
as the great requirement. No policy.
however promising Of good results, can
take its place.
Continuation during the next four
years upon the present financial sys-
tenn will bring down upon the people
that cloud OF impending evil to avert
which should be the first thought of
statesmen and the first prayer Of pa
triots. Our very institutions are at
stake. The nation itself. as to other ma
tions. Is losing the sturdy courage which
could make 1t defiant in the face of in
Justice and internal wrong. Where will

1t is point we'll taken that some
thing should be done to expose sophis.
try and give the people the truth in
regard to the great principles of the
Peoples Party.
The Executive Committee fully
realizes that the reform movement
should make a school campaign so
that the farmers can hear the facts
upon which we found our arguments
and pass judgment upon the logic of
our conclusions.
Chairman Gibbs and Secretary
Lynch, are busy managing routes for
speakers, and for the judicious distri-
button of literature, but, all printed
matter costs money, nothing is fur
niShed us free, cash must 60 with the
order,-nO caSh,-nO literature,-see9
Again, but few of our speakers are
able to take the field at their own ex-
pense and unless the ,mmittee has a
small sum to advance we can not or
der them out.
Now we will refrain from making q
suggestion to the thousands OF pro-
fessed reformers in the state but in
stead respectfully ask for your advice,
What work do you want your state
committee to do for the next six
weeks, aud especially in October?
we are your servants, aud will en-
deavOr to work with the tools that
you furnish us; we expect, Of course,
that you will not outline more work
than you are willing to furnish us the
powers to execute. Plans can be made
before work, but the power to execute
ought to be known before the plan is
made.
In campaign work one dollar now is
worth more to the cause than two will
be month later.
Our candidates are in the field doing
noble work; they are not wealthy men.
they represent the common people as
against corporations and special prlyi-
leges; their personal expenses will be
a heavy drain on their purses, all they
ought to be called upon to bear.
Therefore il you wish your neighbor
to be converted, and think literature
and speakers necessary you must
make a sacrifice to that and urge 9TH
ers to take action. The committee
can get literature at wholesale rates.
Clubs and counties can send the
amount they wish to expend and mat
ter to that value will be sent direct
to them.
l hope that all refOrmers will act at
this critical time as the cause de-
serves, and the occasion demands.
Fraternally, II. A. SWAIN.
