New YORK, July 10.-Bradstreets
weekly review says:
There is only a moderate volume of trade
throughout the country the more noteworthy
changes being a checked demand west ami
northwest, due to the excessive heat and to
storms continued favorable reports as to the
cereal and other crop prospects and disturb
aucee in industrial lines due to the strike Of
about 10000 bituminouS coal miners. The re-
luctance of West Virginia operatives to join
the strike compliCateS the situation.
The prospect for an early settlement of the
tariff has strengthened the widespread feeling
of hopcfulneSs that the autumn will bring a re-
vival of consumptive demand. Orders for
clothing shoes and hardware for fall delivery
are already more frequent at Baltimore, Chica-
go and Omaha. The movement of dry goods is
checked by midsummer stock taking but trade
in seasonable lines has been stimulated by mid =
summer weather. There is no improvement in
demand for cotton or wooden goods but the lat
ter are higher based on the cost of wool
Prices show an advance Of one-fifth Of one per
cent during June, and mark the beginning of a
turn in the outward change OF the tide of prices
which continued from January to June 1.

OUR ASIATIC RIVAL,
Japan's Reply to tho Motto of Soo-
retary Sherman.
IT IS NOT As AAIABLE As HOPED FOR,
The Japanese Contend that They Have
Equal Rights with the United States
in Hawaii, and Are Liable
to Get Bumptious.

CHICAGO, July 1O-A special to the
Iimes-IIerald from Washington saws:
There is serious danger of diplo-
matte friction between the United
States and Japan over Hawaii. Al
though the reply which Japan has
made to Secretary Sherman's note CON
corning the intentions Of this govern
ment has been received, the state de-
partment holds it in secrecy. 1t is
known, however, that the reply is not
as amable as had been hoped for.
The reply of the japanese govern
ment is of such tone and there are such
suspicious movements of certain Japan
ese warships that the administration is
afraid Japan may be mcditatng some
| coup de force in Honolulu. 1t is un-
derstood that in their reply the Japan
ese still contend that they have equal
rights with the United States in Ha-
wall, and that the attempt of the
United States to annex the islands
without consultation with Japan is a
breach of good faith.
One thing IS certain, and this is that
no matter which way the negotiations
, turn the administration does not pro-
pose to be caught mapping. If the
japanese make show Of force at
Honolulu, with or without an an
nounced intention of demanding that
the Hawaiian government comply with
the demands for reparation which
were submitted some time ago, this
government will do the same thing,
No one need be surprised if the war
ships of the United States and Japan
froWn on one another in Honolulu
within the next two weeks War is not
expected by any member of the Wash
ington government familiar with the
facts, but it is admitted the mobiliza,
tion Of naval craft at Honolulu would
be sufficient to produce a hazardous
situation. Already there is a good deal
of animosity toward the United States
on the part of the Jepan naval office,
and an overt act ON their part might
precipitate a great deal of trouble.
During the last ten days the navy de-
partment has made special prepara.
tions of a quiet sort for the mobiliza
ton of our naval forces on the Pacific
at Honolulu, should the turn OF
diplomacy make such action necessary.
At the present time the United States
is not as strong in the Pacific waters as
Japan. If the Nicaraguan canal were
open the advantages would be on our
side in ease of trouble

A CRUMB OF COMFORT.


Have Been Broken.
WASHINGTON, July TO- The intense
heat of the past ten daysin the central
valleys. due in part to the stagnation
of the atmosphere, has been broken by
the forward movement of the trough
Of low pressure from Kansas to the
lake regions and by the advance
of the high pressure area from the
North Pacific coast to Colorado. A fall
in temperature of 20 degrees in "a
hours has been reported from Sioux
City and Concordia. The area indi-
eating the fall in temperature has ad-
vauced to the eigAtieth meridian and
covers the whole country from the
meridian to the Rocky mountains, ex-
cept northern Louisiana, extreme north
eastern Texas, Georgia and South Caro-
lima, where the temperature has risen
two degrees.
1t is probable that this cooler weather
will reach the Atlantic states Sunday
afternoon, giving cooler weather for
several days

GETTING A MOVE ON.


WASHINGTON, July 10.-Rear Admiral
Selfridge on the cruiser San Francisco,
now at Tangier, has cabled to the navy
department that when the Morocco au-
thorities learned that American war
ships had been ordered to Tangier,
they arrested one of the assailants Of
the agent of the American firm who
had been knocked down and robbed.
Two men were involved in the as
sault, and upon the demand of Consul
General Burke, enforced by the pres
ence of the San Francisco, the Moorish
authorities were making every effort
to capture the second fugitive, and Ad-
miral Selfridge added that he believed
that they would succeed. 1t is expect
ed that the state department will di-
rect Consul-General Burke to see that
the men are adequately punished for
their offense.

though one manufacturer made 50

CLEVELAND, O., July 10.-Mr. Dan
Hanna. of the firm Of NJ. A. Hanna x
Co., declares that the West Virginia
miners will never quit work, and that
coal could be secured from that source
If the railroads were prepared to haul
Col. Myron T. Herrick, receiver, was
not prepared to say whether the
Wheeling & Lake Erie would haul
West Virginia coal He had received
advices from Dillonvale that his miners
are still out
The event of the day was the frantic
efforts of the little dealers to secure
coal from the big dealers to
supply their retail consumers
In every instance the dealers
refused to deliver the coal.
The price Of steam coal of the run OF
the mine grade has steadily advanced,
and is now 81 above what it was Thurs
day. The demand is becoming greater
every hour, and the supply is constant
ly becoming less. The feeling Of
alarm is beginning to spread among
men who yesterday viewed the situa-
ton with disdain.

idle COAL MINERS,
The Situation as It Appears Fro-
Latest Reports,
ATTEMPT TO CAPTURE WEST VIRGINIA,
The Miners Look Upon Success in Bring
ing Out Their Brethren in that
State as an Essential Factor
in Their Cause.


PIrrsRURGH Pa, July l0.-Thc deci-
sion of the labor leaders at Friday
nights conference in this city to send
orga anizers into West Virginia and fur
nish funds to bring out the miners in
that state, practically narrows down
the strike to a fight between the
coal operators of West Virginia and
the labor unions OF the country.
The cry of union miners will now
be that with West Virginia in
line the strike will ultimately
be successful No money or effort viii
be spared it is said, to accomplish the
suspension of every mine in the state.
Special organizers will also be sent To
the mines of the New York & Cievc-
land Gas Coal Co., and every argument
used upon the men at work to induce
them to Join in the movement. Many
operators in this district are anxious
to get the miners Of the New York &
Cleveland company out and in several
instances money has been offered tC
help to pay the wages Of DeArmit's
men if they would consent to strike.
Coal is very scarce in the Pittsburgh
market, and it is impossible to buy in
carload lots. A representative OF an
/ oil-well drilling firm made application
for carload, but was refused. The
oil man said if fuel could not be pro
cured it would cause suspension Of
field work in this section.
Operators are making every effort tc
protect contracts for future delivery.
Failure to deliver on these conditions
will entail heavy losses, as thousand.
of dollars will be forfeited. A prom
inent operator SAID that the local mar
ket would be well cleaned up by the
end of the week and higher prices will
result.
Further accessions to the ranks OF
the miners have been made, At Al
lenport 200 men struck. The Pauhan-
die mine of Hanna 4 Co. is said to have
been shut down completely by the or
der Of Manager Young, About % men
We're at work in this mine Friday. Ac-
cording to the mining officials, less
than 500 men outside of the l20O en-
ployed by the De Armits in the New
York & Cleveland company, are in the
pits in this district.
District President Dolan who is just
back from two days tramp through
the field says There was not speck
Of coal mined today in the valley from
Whitsett to PittsOurgh." He declared
he had been all over the territory and
knew what he was talking about.
