RAINS IN EVIDENCE
THE IMPROVEMENT IN BUSINESS
VERY MODERATE, AND YET
QUITE DISTINCT.
1T is STILL QUANTITIES,
NUMBER OF MEN AT WORK AND
NEW ORDERS SLOWLY IN
CREASING.
LARGE CONSUMPTION is A FACTOR
Free Buying of American Securities
ia the English Market Also Has
an influence.

NEW YORK, June u.-Dunn & Co. S
weekly review of trade tomorrow will
say: The gain in business continues;
not without fluectuations, and, at the
best, moderate yet distinct 1t is still
quantities rather than prices, although
in some branches an advance in prices
appears, but, on the whole, the num-
Der of hands employed, the volume of
new orders, and the amount of work
done, are all slowly increasing. The
prospect of good crops Of wheat and
cotton helps the growing demand from
dealers, whose stocks a gradually gain
ms consumption depletes also helps,
and, in the money and exchange mar
ket, large buying of American securi-
ties has an influence.
Wheat looks well and the best trade
authorities now estimate the yield at
100000 bushels with state and rail-
road returns to support the figures. The
price recovered 11Sc after last week S

day last year The outgo is steady,
and, since March, has been 1896, 1872
bushels against &c. lis, AL last year. and
yet Western receipts have kept fair
ly ahead of the exports.
Neither cotton nor wooden mills can
expect other than a waiting business
with a change of tariff impending, but
the demand for bleached goods is
steady though moderate; for print
cloths slightly better Though quota
tons are unchanged, some large wooden
mills are preparing to increase output
and have bought heavily, sales of for
eign wool at Boston alone having reach
ed 6,810,000 pounds. A somewhat bet
ter order demand for woolens is re-
ported, especially in medium and high
priced goods. Iron furnaces in blast

that production of pig has for some

General Business Better. Than 1t

NEW YORK, June 11.-Bradstreet's
tomorrow will say: Notwithstanding
cool, wet weather, which checked the
distribution of SeasOnable goods, dis
appointment at the restriction of dis
tribution of merchandise in the spring
and early summer is giving way to
hopefulness for the fall trade. Bust
ness is better than year ago The
volume is larger and there are more
people employed than prior to the last
presidential election. The movement
Of merchandise, in the past five months,
has been disappointing, but jobbers are
beginning to report fair orders for fall
delivery. The encouraging features an
nOunced this week are the improvement
in May railroad earnings and the adj
vance in the price of Bessemer pig
although the latter is less significant
than some reports indicate. Manufac-
turerS of WoOlens are more hopeful
the outlook for higher prices stimulat-
ing speculative demand for both raw
and manufactured products. Crop
prospects, except in Oregon and
Washington, where rain is needed, con-
tinue favorable. Hot and forcing
weather with showers throughout the
Gulf states has had an excellent effect
on cotton and corn, which has Stimu-
lated demand for merchandise. This

ness on the part of prints, coal, lum-

MINING IN MONTANA.
Production of Silver Keeps Up Right
Along.

Thomas L. Greenaugh, of Missoula, Mont.
was a caller upon General Traffic Manager
Hannaford, of the Northern Pacific yesterday.
Mr.. Greenaugh is the manager of the EARLY
Morning" and the You Like" mines at Null
len Mont. There is funny little story con-
nected with the naming or the two mines.
The Morning mine used to have a different
name. Some years ago two prospectors were
seeking for traces of metal in Montana, and
one morning they came across rich outcrop-
pings Of lead and silver. They staked their
claims out and then sat down to think up
names for their new possessions.
well what shall we call them?" asked one
of the proSpectors
''Just what you like replied the other.
every WE'LL said the first. eve will call
one of them Just What and the other You
Like "
And so it was recorded. g,
The mines have been worked successfully
by the owners. Mr.. Greenaugh says that the
total output in silver is ABOUT $4,000 ounces
per month. The price of silver is about 60
cents an ounce.
eve turn out about 1000 tons of concen-
trates a month"; said the mine manager.
"From this we secure 30 per cent lead and %
per cent silver. OF course we will get richer
faster when the price of silver goes up. We
are making some money even as it is.

the Union Pacific. The new arrangement adj
mlts all of the lines mentioned above and
practically opens a new gateway. 1t admits
all lines to the South and Southeast of Ore

to the shippers throughout Oregon. The
ADMISSION or these lines to the Oregon Rail

affects materially the Northern lines.
General Passenger Agent Hurlburt of the

speaking of the new condition, said The

today on the road to prosperity, and the
opening of the mining industries in the
Western part of the state is responsible to
large extent. vast area of territory in the

under the cid arrangement, when the
Union Pacific was in control it forced all
lines conVerging at Kansas City or Omaha

Pacific Northwest AS matter of fact, the
Union Pacific, under it's own right, owned
but 100 miles of track reaching from Omaha
to Ogden but its control of the Oregon
Short line from Ogden to Huntington, and of
the Oregon Railway & Navigation company
from huntington to Portland, gave the Union
Pacific a monopoly.
1t is believed that Oregon will be adver-
tIsed by all the roads of the Northwest in
the same manner that the Southern Pacific
advertised California. Branch Offices Of the
six roads named will be opened in Port
land. The Oregon Railway & Navigation
company is already handling passengers
and freight via the Denver & Rio Grande. OF
course the Union Pacific is bound to
tain much of the joint business, but will
get it at Denver and Cheyenne instead of at
Missouri river points.
The Union Pacific has retalated by putting
on a fast special service between Cheyenne
and Sacramento for Portland via the South

the press dispatches.
