Stocks-The natural reaction from
yesterdays buoyant tendency in Wall
street was supplemented to-day by some
positive elements of depression as
consequence of which prices generally
ruled below yesterdays level all day.
The speculative world apparently took
a rather serious view of the affair at
Cardenas. In spite of all assurances
that the loss incurred was trivial from
a military standpoint, the shedding of
the first American blood had depress
ing influence which no amount of rea-
soning could destroy. There was be-
sides this an unsettling conviction felt
yesterday that the Spanish Cape Verde
fleet had certainly returned to home
waters. A reaction in Spanish fours
in London and Paris also dissipated
some of the impression that their re-
cent advance forshad0wed move to-
wards peace by Spain. The absence Of
authoritative reports from Admiral
Sampson and his fleet induced some
hesitation amongst dealers in stocks.
There was in addition a depressed mar
ket for Americans in London before

the opening here and there was free
selling OF the international stocks for
London account during the early trad
ing. 1t was not surprising in view OF
all these conditions that some of the re-
cent buyers of stocks should have been
inclined to take profit and that the
bears should be encouraged to attack
the market. Such a stubborn resist
ance was shown however. to the first
dip OF prices that extreme caution was
developed about putting out short con-
tracts The market displayed an equal
reluctance to advance with any degree
or vlgor. Covering by shorts in the
late dealings overcame a portion of the
losses, but net declines are a point or
over IN many Of the prominent stocks.
There were special stocks scattered
through the list that maintained a show
OF strength, notably Consolidated Gas,
which rose buoyantly at one time
points. The Union Pacific, DenNr &
Gulf securities, Rock Island and Cotton
OH stocks and some of the high priced
investment stocks were notably firm.
The volume of business was much re-
duced from yesterday and the market
was extremely feverish and irregular all
day

few exception displayed a heavy tone.

When Johnny Gets Els Gun.

When Johnny gets his gun, LOOK out,
There's bound TO be fuss,
For Johnny is in earnest when
He holds his blunderbuss!
His martial air is wonderful;
His smile upsets all fun,
And things assume a warike air,
When Johnny gets his CUR.
In softer moods our John is calm,
He's sportive, gay and good,
And acts with much propriety,
As freemen always should
When yachting he will never "load"
His vessel on the run,
But saves his efforts till the time.
He wants TO load his gun.
He's sturdy on the baseball field,
And football plays with vim;
In cricket, too, he doth excel
And sports aheld suit him.
But in the battle van, for right,
He'll make the foemen run;
And, oh, the triumph of that hour
When Johnny gets his gnn
In wild adventure John delights,
He loves to travel, too,
And, when exploring, always keeps
The North Pole up to view
And, as for loving Liberty,
He's freedoms honest son!
And down will go its enemies,
When Johnny gets his gun.
And war upon the Spanish Main
Is suited to his mind
He'll spring to arms at Freedoms call,
And leave all fear behind.
On Cuba's soil he'll raise the flag,
That waves meath Freedoms sun,
And Spaniards all will rue the day
That Johnny gets his gun.
Stand back Monroe once said the word
That makes the nation grand,
And Congress gives it emphasis,
A law unto the land
Stand back Stand back A million men
Shout meath the Western sun,
And, oh, the gathering of the hosts,
When Johnny gets his gun!

Dun's Weekly Review of Trade.

r. G. Dun & Company's Weekly
Review of Trade says:
Hostilities have not as yet changed
last weeks conditions. There is
much postponement of orders by men
who do not know what they are wait
ing for, and much restriction of loans
by banks which are abundantly strong.
All this checks new business, and yet
the volume of transactions through
clearing houses is larger than the
same week in 1892, with no foreign
trouble. New York clearings are
81 per cent. smaller than in 1902,
but outside clearings only 60 per
cent smaller. The railroads are do.
ing a great business, 81 per cent.
larger than in 1892 IN April earnings
thus far, and 13.e larger than last
yea-. Wheat prices advanced 21t
cents, ST cents within the past week.
Receipts of 2,746,59o bushels at the
West this week against I,552,S75 a
year ago, and averaging 100000
bushels per week for January. Febru-
airy and March, while exports amount
ing to 3,7o4,675 bushels from Attain
tic ports, against 643,I7S last year,
and 7S6,o7S from Pacific coast,
against 1904 last year, flour includ-
ed in all cases, makes exports for the
four weeks I2,o93,76S from Atlantic,
and 1850, ,o2o from Pacific ports, and
for the crop year thus far 50, ,66I, I,678
bushels, against I27,I5S,6S4 during
the same months and weeks of last
year. Corn exports for the week
were S,7S8,2So bushels, against
3,o29,o4o last year, and for four
weeks have been I2,266,6S1 bushels,
against I3,35c,2o7 last year. Con-
fusing accounts about the great indus
tries cannot cause surprise in view of
the contradictory influence of none
tary stringency curtailing many orders,
heavy orders by government in many
branches, and all prevailing confidence
that after temporary conditions have
passed, business is going to be better.
The consumption of iron is still the
greatest ever known, though many
structural and car contracts have been
deferred. Inc week has witnessed
Eastern inquiries for plate at Chicago
and general advance of So per ton,
with refusal of bids by implement
makers at Chicago for bar iron be-
cause higher prices in the future are
expected, and Eastern buying of bars
from Chicago for car building with
shade lower prices at Pittsburg for
Bessemer pig because the associated
producers hold to agreed prices, al
though middlemen are selling at lower
hgures.
The cotton manufacturer has been
helped by some government contracts
and little better outside demand,
and the temporary advance in raw
cotton to 6.44 cents, though the
price has since declined to 6.37.
Woolen manufacturers are dong
rather better, large government orders
helping some works, while other de-
mands are more encouraging. Sales
of wool are about a sixth of last years
for Aplil, half of those in 1896, and a
third of sales in 1892.
Failures for the week have been
26I in the United States, against 237
last year, and 16 in Canada, against
40 last year.
