The Driving Matinee.

The first driving matinee of the
season was held on the grounds of the
Agricultural association Thursday

and the attendance was satisfactory,
probably 300 people being on the

n taste of real oppression. Not long
ago. at Moscow. volume was published
which contained some paragraphs in
favor Of the people. and the author was
promptly arrested and the book sup
pressed. The author was tried in a
summary way. and condemned to eat his
own words. a sea fold was erected in
public square, and the imperial pro-
vost, the magistrates and the physicians
of the car were present. The book was
separated from the binding, and the
margin cut off. The author was then
served leaf by leaf by the provost. and
was obliged to swallow this rnpalat-
able stuff on pain Of the knout. As
soon as the medical gentlemen were or

as he could with safety, the unlucky
author was returned to prison. The

DUN'S REVIEW OF TRADE.

NEW YORK, June PAR. G. Dun q
Co.'S weekly review of trade will say in
to-morrow's issue:
Very little of the new business seen in
proportion to tine aggregate, has been
caused by the war. Not any, discoverabe
by ordinary tests, has been prevented by
war.
The iron industry is very dull at the
East, with complaint that prices do not
rise, but at Pittsburg and the West the
works are getting more business and are
even competing so sharply that prices
are slightly lower for bars, cut nails, steel
rails and grey forge while southern iron
is also offered lower there than at the
East The enormous demand from ag-
ricultural regions for Implements fencing,
cars, railway equipment and all sorts of
building is the noteworthy feature of
this remarkable year. Minor metals are
fairly steady with tin at 15.2 cents: lake
copper at Ills, with %, TAI tons produced
in the United States and Sass abroad in
May and lead is stronger at 3.95 cents,
with only moderate transactions.
Failures for the week have been 2S5 in
the United States against 2l6 last year,
and II in Canada against "a last year.

DRY GOODS.

New York, June 24.-The hopeful
tone is continued in the dry goods
market to-day, though there are no
phenomena which seems to point to
specifically better conditions. There
are no advances in prices and the bulk
Of the sales being made are in strict
ly summer lines, which are sold on
concessions from quoted prices. The
noteworthy exception is the demand
for fall fancy prints in dark shades,
which is we'll sustained at the prices
quoted by sellers. Reports from vari-
GUS jobbing centres show good aver
age results for this season in most
quarters. Both in jobbing and with
retailers sales have been heavy. Print
cloths are not SO firm as they were
earlier in the week. Regular sixty
four squares are still quoted at &c.

quiri, June 23.-Via Port Antonio.
June "A Before sunset last night
over 4,C10 of the 1880 troops on
board the transports went ashore.
Gen. Kent, with seven transports,
will remain west Of Santiago as a
feint until the remainder of the
troops here are landed Gen. Gar
ella arrived at camp before dark,
and 1880 of his Cubans are ex-
pected to effect juncture with
Gen. Skaters men to-day. IS
soon as the various commands were
landed yesterday they were pushed
out in the direction of Santiago.
At dark they were blvouacked and
were strung out in a column three
miles long, the front resting at
Damajayaho, and the rear of the
column within a mile of the base of
Baiquiri in the following order:
Col. Wagner, with a reconnaissance
party at Demajayaho, mile in ad-
vance of Gen. Lawtons headquar-
ters: the Twenty-second and Twen-
ty-fourth colored infantry resting
at a small creek; the Second Massa-
chusetts, the Twelfth Infantry,
First Battalion, two companies of
The Tenth Infantry and the Sec
ond Battalion of the Fourth In
fantry.
Gen. Bates men, who are on re-
serve, and Gen. Lawton's Jones
Rough Riders" dismounted, and
fragments of several regiments,
bivouacked at Baiquiri last night,
the landing proceeding until dawn.
The men slept on the ground, some
under the tent flies and some under
the starlit canopy. In the morn
ing they washed and were in good
spirits. The ony disagreeable feat
ure was the mosquitoes and land in
sects. All the men are anxious to
get at the foe, and the regiments
are to be pushed on to support Gen.
Lawton as fast as they are landed
The aggressive attitude of the
army on land has been exceedingly
gratifying.

steadily eastward is no longer
doubted here. AT the rate they are
progressing the squadron should
reach Port Said, at the entrance to
the Suez canal about Monday or
tuesday. Beyond this point It is
not believed that the squadron will
go for it is confidently felt that the
whole Spanish movement is moth
ing more than a spectacular dis
play, gotten up to meet the irresist-
ible demand of the Spanish popu-
lace, and particularly the Clerical
party, that something should be
done to save the Philippines to
Spain. There is question whether
the canal authorities will allow the
heavy Spanish armored ships to
risk the passage of the canal even
if Admiral Camara is willing to
undertake it. Their draft of water
is so great that they might easily
ground in the canal and thus OBJ
struct it to navigation indefinitely.
But even If all these expectations
are not we'll founded, the naval Off
GERS are confident of Dewey's abil-
lty to successfully resist an attack
by the Spanish squadron. Accord
ing to their calculations the splen-
did double turreted monitor Mon
terey is very near Manila under
convoy of the Brutus and her ar
rival may be expected within Awo
or three days. When she swings
into line with Dewey's squadron
there is not an ironclad in CANA
ra's force that would care to stand
before her. Then it must be re-
membered that long before the
Cadiz squadron could possibly
reach Manila bay Gen. Merritt's
troops will be in conjunction with
the insurgents in possession of all
the forts surrounding the harbor
and the Spanish guns, being mann
ed by American artillerymen, will
be expected to give better account
of themselves than they did when
trained against Dewey.

on the advance causing the stock to sag
off. The decrease in st. Paul's week

accounted for the sluggishness in the

Brooklyn Rapid Transit maintenance
of traffic gains, although now facing
new competition, gave strength to that
stock. A movement against the shorts
