AS Dun Sees It.

New York, May 7.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'S weekly review of trade will say
tomorrow: Nearly all will be aston
ished to learn that the actual sales in
April by leading houses in each line
of business in the principal cities east
of the Rocky mountains average only
about ten per cent less than in Aprll.
1872. the year of the largest business
hitherto and were 81 per cent more
than in the same month last year Yet
This is the summary of 65i reports,
each covering actual sales of leading
merchants in a line of business in one
of IA cities. They are especially en-
c.ouraging in view of the great fall of
prices within the five years, and with
exceptional floods and other retarding
influences this year. While specula-
tive business in nearly all lines is small
and does not swell clearing house re-
turns. as in previous years. the vol
ume of legitimate trade shows no cor
responding decrease, and the fact IS
one of the highest Importance in all
business calculations
Moreover, returns of failures for
April by branches of business given
only by the mercantile agencies show
decrease in number. amount and aver
age of liabilities in almost every br inch
Of trade and in nearly all branches of
manufacture except cotton, although
failures in five New Bedford mills for
s.. O90. 7S4 make the total defaulted liza
bilities for the month 40 per cent larger
than last year. so larger than in 1895
and 50 larger than in 1894 The value
of reports tracing failures to particular
lines of business is imDressively illus
trated.
Bales of wool, at prices firm but no
longer rising. fall much below recent
records. indicating that spectators are
growing less sure of early profits in
view of the enormous supplies on hand.
At the three chief markets they were
$3.50 500 pounds of which 5.744.600 were
foreign and in five weeks the sales
have been 49,737.S $50 pounds, against
%, }27 100 pounds in the same week OF
1892 when the mills were well en-
ployed.
The heavy sales of lake copper are
believed 10 cover some large consum-
eIs for most of the year.
Failures for the week have been 221

Christian Endeavor Rates.

Chicago. May The lines of the
Western Passenger association and of
the Central Passenger committee have
reached an amicable agreement regard
ing the arrangements for the sale of
the Christian Endeavor tickets. For a
time it was thought that the differ
ences in the forms of the tickets TO be
used by the roads for the two organ
iZations would result in considerable
friction. The arrangements of the west
ern roads, however, have been so sat
isfactory that there is no chance of
trouble at all. A round-trip ticket will
be used up to the eastern gateway or
the western roads and from there
one-way ticket will be used.
The competitors of the Rock Island
have all given notice that they will
meet the action of that road in max
ing a reduced rate from Utah points to
Chicago and the Missouri river for
school teachers who desire to come
east for their summer vacation.

THE STREET SPRINKLlNG.
COUNCILMAN ALLEN HAS FIG
URES SUPPORTING HIS PLAN.
Thinks the City Should Do the
Sprinkling in the Area Outside of
the Districts Covered by Contract.

Councilman John Allen, chairman Of
the street committee, has compiled
some interesting figures in support of
his move to have the city do its own
sprinkling in the districts not covered
by the city's contract with Mr. Griffin.
The latter has a contract to do all the
sprinkling in four or five districts at a
stipulated amount per month. He also
agreed to do extra sDrinkling at S2.45
per block per week
There are now IS blocks of this extra
sprinkling being done and according to
Aliens figures this amounts to $766.50
per month or an average of $3,S32.50
for five months, which constitutes the
sprinkling season.
Mr. Allen computes that four sprink-
ling carts can do the same work in a
thorough manner at a cost of IS per
day for each sprinkler or a total of
$500 for all four during the entire
season of five months. Placing the ap-
proXimate cost of constructing the four
carts at 81 SEQ the total cost to the city
in one year would be only $4,000 or a
saving during the first year of $232.50
in addition to owning the carts.
In accordance with the instructions
of the council last tuesday night the
city recorder has solicited bids for four
sprinkling wagons and if favora BILE
proposals come in it is quite likely The
city will once more engage in the
sprinkling business.

Bradstreet's Financial Review.

New York, May 7-Bradstreet's
financial review tomorrow will say:
While current stock speculation retains
as lis chief characteristic the absence
OF public participation, the predomi-
nance of professional manipulation and
narrowness that frequently deserves
the name of stagnation. it has not
been without considerable interest
throughout the week. The principal in
cident was the announcement on Tues
day that the modification of the Ding
ley tariff as reported by the senate
finance committee included in its pro-
vision a concession to the sugar refin-
ing industry. 1t gave the signal for
heavy covering. not only in American
SlAgar. but in other parts of the list
Wednesdays reports from Washington
indicated that the modified sugar
schedule would encounter strong op-
position. and probably defeat in The
house of representatives. There was a
reaction in sugar and a cooling off in
enthusiasm in regard TO other stocks.
which was caused by the fact that
szaall bear traders had been driven to
cover and that other buying power was
totally lacking. Fears OF the rejection

BARS OF LEAD.
Information Concerning the Bullion
Found at the Court House.

Mt. Pleasant Pyramid: About
five years ago. it will be remem-
bered that considerable interest was
aroused over the discovery of two
bars of lead bullion which were I'M
earthed under the stairway of the
courthouse at Manti. Spencer ClawsOR
of the Pioneer Jubilee commission has
written Sven o. Nielsen of Fairview
concerning the matter. and Mr.. Nelson
gives the following information:
In reply to your inquiry of the Sth
inst. concerning the bar of bullion. will
say that about five years ago Judge
Jacob Johnson and myself unearthed
under the stairway of the Sanpete
county courthouse two bars of bullion.
which weighed about 80 pounds each.
They bore the following inscription:
Great Salt Lake City, State Of
Deseret."
We learned from an old pioneer that
this bullion was dug out of Las Vegas,
along the old California trail via.
southern Utah, and hauled TO Salt
Lake City by OK teams. l was told
that Brigham Young sent the men out
to mine the lead prior to the Johnson
army trouble in Echo canyon. Not US
ing it there, part of it was shipped out
to Sanpete to use in the Black-Hawk
Indian war.
AS to the Whereabouts of these bars
l will say that at the time of the dis
covery of these bars under the stair
way, we expressed one bar to the Des-
eret museum in Salt Lake City. / have
since seen it on exhibition at the

about five minutes the course of prices

The Lilac Car.

Some temporary embarrassment has
arisen between the Colorado Midland
and Rio Grande city agents and the
jubilee committee in charge of the IL
lac car, due to leave Salt Lake tonight
on tour of the mining towns of Colo
RADIO. The disagreement is merely
matter of business enterprise on the
part of Agent Brown of the Midland
and Agent Gushing of the Rio Grande
over which of their respective lines the
car shall go and in no way affects
the transportation OF the jubilee's floral
messenger.
The Midland wants TO take the car
from Grand Junction into Cripple
Creek over the broad guage line. The
Rio Grande urges the committee TO
split I'D the business and allow that
line to take the car from Grand juno
ton by way of Aspen into LeadNille
and there make the delivery to the
Midland. The Midland refuses TO ac-
cede 10 such an arrangement. The jul
bilee committee wants TO give both
roads a share of the business and was
between the devil and the deep sea
yesterday.
Some amicable understanding will be
reached this evening between the two
lines At any rate the cay will go out
tonight as advertised.
