Import decreases aside from that in wheat are found in some few makes of iron and steel some other metals and in building lumber. Compared with August, one year ago, 66 out out of 1O4 staples are higher, 2s are lower and are unchanged, so that it may be said that compared with a year ago there have been more than two advances for every decline reported.

Washington, Aug. 5.-Brigadier General w. c. Oates, who has been at his home in Alabama for some weeks awaiting orders, has been ordered to report to Major Gen. eral M. c. Butler, commanding the Second division of the Second corps, for assign ment to duty as commander of the Second brigade. General Oates tried hard to get to command a brigade of southerners. and the president promised him he would make an effort to give him the Second Alabama, Second Texas and Second Louisiana. He went to Mobile soon after he received his commission. prominent government of ficial, speaking of the matter, said today:
 "Oates will doubtless remain in the ser vice for some time. The conclusion of peace negotiations does not necessarily mean the disbandment of the volunteers

DIR. JOHN GUITERAS
Says the Yellow Fever at Santiago Will
 Become Alarming.

Philadelphia Aug. 5.-Dr. John Guiteras, the famous yellow fever expert, and one of the leading Cuban advisers in this coun- try, arrived at his home in this city from Santiago de Cuba, where he had been en- gagged in yellow fever work under the di- rection of the government. pr. Guiteras was decidedly averse to discussing the con- ditions existing in and around Santiago. He also declined to make any comments upon the efficiency alleged lack of eff ciency of the medical and hospital corps of the army.
 Concerning the yellow fever. which has attacked the troops, Dr. Guiteras said: "The yellow fever cases thus far have been of light order, and the mortality among the troops has not been heavy. The most serious cause of trouble at present is from typhoid fever and malaria Most of the men ill in the hospitals are suffering from one or the other of these diseases.
 ''As the season drags on, however, the yellow fever will become more serious, and then it will be worse than the ty phoid."
 Continuing, Dr. Guiteras said: For req sons apparent to all, I cannot discuss the affairs of the army in public. l shall make an official report of my observations direct

BIG BANK ROBBERY.
Six Thieves Loot Safe at Eicfla- d.
 Mich.

Richland, Mich. Aug. 5.-One of the most successful bank robberies ever perpetrated in Michigan was carried out by six robbers last night Some of them came from the east on hand car and evidently had con- federates with a horse and carriage. They secured about 5000 in cash from the Union bank and $4,600 in notes.
 The horse and carriage were taken into Augusta and left there. There were three explosions, which awakened many people.
 Alvin Barnes, an old man who lived near the bank, was ordered in the house with a threat that they would shoot him. George

Prospect of Conflict Between Great
 Britain and Russia.

London, Aug. 5.-There is great uneas- mess on all sides here in view of the Chi nese situation, which is regarded as bring ing an open conflict between Great Britain and Russia within measurable distance, and it is universally felt that the M IT. quis of Salisbury's invertebracy in yied- ing to Russian aggressiveness is responsi- be for the dangerous complications, which can only be overcome by the prompt and most firm intimation that Russia's open opposition to British commercial conces- sions must cease.

pRApsTREET's REvIEw

New York, Aug 5-Bradstreets tomor. row will say: The stimulating influences of the apparently near approach of peace, coupled with the generally expected bene- ficial effects it Is hoped will flow from the opening up of new markets in the lands added to the national domain, seem to in- crease trade. That the improvement, While as yet admittedly one largely of sentiment, is not entirely so confined, however, is proven by the reports of a still further in- creased distribution of staple goods in the west, northwest and southwest, where the excellent crop situation has rendered harm less supposed benumbng effects of the war. There is a cessation of drought con- ditions from the corn belt.
 Another encouraging feature of the week has been the perceptible growth in strength of the iron and steel situation, partly as the result, it is claimed, of the hoped-for average approaching of the close of hostil- tiles, but partly also as the result of an active demand on domestic and foreign account for nearly all forms of these met als. Particularly noticeable is the demand more especially in the central west for iron for agr.cultuI al imp ement manufacture and for steel rails and plates for export or for domestic shipbuilding Firmness in prC s is a feature of particular interest in view of the enormous productions of pig iron early in the year and apparently reflects the go- ing into consumption of most of this im- mense production.
 Encouraging export demand for our cereals, great staediness of prices largest recorded midsummer bank clearngs and fairly encouraging railroad earnings, not withstanding the unwillingness of farmers to accept present cereals values are addi- tional encouraging features of trade at the present time.

New York, Aug. 5.-R. G. Dunn & Co. s weekly review of trade will say tomorrow:
 Prospects of peace stimulate many kinds of business. In spite of records, the ir.- pression prevails that delay and hesitation have legitimately resulted from war and larger contracts are in fact coming for ward for iron products with a better gen. eral demand in most industries. The volume of payments through all clearing houses was the largest ever known in July being per cent. larger than in 1892 for the month and for the past week IF per cent. larger

 The beginning of gold importations pro- duced little impression owing to the ple- thoria of the money and gave more signid- icance than has been attached by the mar ket to the present outlook for an average yield of corn. This Is reflected by the de- cided strength of the securities of corn carrying railroads and the reappearance of reports concerning increase of dividends or their resumption by number of com panies. At the same time the revived ae- tivity of the rairoad list has been partly at the ekpense of the industrials.

attention to the fact that this season has been remarkably free from such hindrance. In spite of a promise of 700, 900 900 bushels of wheat this year, the price Is 21a higher for the week. The disposition of farmers to hold back their wheat for prices more like those obtainable recently accounts for receipts 36 per cent. smaller than last year, but exports, including flour, were 3,64l 647 bushels, against 2,530,726 bushels for the same week last year, and for five weeks of the crop year 12474,S39 bushels, against 9S.3,l92 bushels last year. The Vlsloie sup ply Is extremely low, but exports al the present rate throughout the year would have little lifting power if the crop IS about BOO OOO 900 bushels more than home needs for seed and food. Corn exports for the week have been only 173i,347 bushels against E. 7o5 0e0 last year, though the price has scarcely declined. Cotton Is unchanged and crop advices are so favorable that with the acreage not quite half per cent. small- CT than last year, some expect crop nearly 1000, 900 bales larger. With all commercial and foreign mill stocks 1.lOOO0O bales larger than a year ago, and American mill stocks also larger to an unknown extent, the crop really foreshadowed cannot be consumed without A revolution in the worlds demand for goods.
 Demand for Staple Cotton
 A better demand for staple cotton goods does not relieve the overproduction in print cloths, and goods are practically un- changed in price. Western stiffness in holding wool and the New England wool paper drifting this way and largely re- fused indicate another attempt to tire out the manufacturers, who are actually of fering for worsted wool to cents below asking prices and buying scarcely any. Several mills have closed for the time rather than pay the prices asked for wool
 The iron manufacture has nearly, if not quite, resumed its full production, except in the valleys where Bessemer producers are closing in turn under agreemnt to force prices upwards. While there has been large buying, one Pittsburg steel con cern, with all it's furnaces at work, taking 6O.OOO tons more, the price there does no change as yet; neither does local pig al Chicago, although, with much better buy ing, one southern concern advanced it: prices 25 cents. Low phosphorus pig ha: risen 50 cents at Philadelphia, with better demand but unchanged prices for othel grades The demand for rails includes bidi for next winter and next year, Chicago sale of 4.cOo tons for Japan and eastern

FINANCIAL REVIEW

New York, Aug. 5.-Bradstreets financial review tomorrow will say:
 Peace negotiations and the better out look for the corn crop resulting from rains at the west have brought change In spec ulative conditions. The stock market has been broader and shows the presence of in creased public participation. Prices have tended to advance and though the industri- al securities bore an important part in the weeks movements, renewed attention has been paid to the railroad share list and the granger stocks have resumed their posi- ton of leadership.
