HAYES WAS WOUNDED
Hut ls Out of the Hospital and Again
Ready for Duty.

Washington, July ia cablegram
from Playa del Este, Cuba, conveys
the information that Mai. Webb C.
Hayes, of the First Ohio cavalry, son
of the late President Hayes, was
wounded on Friday, July /. the first
day of the battle of Santiago. At the
request of Maj. Hayes no mention of
tie matter was made in the official dis
patches. His regiment did not partici.
pate in the engagement, being now un-
der waiting orders at Tampa. Mai.
Hayes was detached from his COM
mand and assigned to temporary duty
on Gen. Young's staff. While acting
in that capacity his horse was killed
under him and he vas wounded. That
his wound was not particularly serious
is indicated by the fact that he is out
OF the hospital and again ready for
duty.

IRON AND STEEL TRADE.
Export business VIII Not he Affected

VIII he Made.

"Iron and Steel" in a recent issue
says: A quite natural gain that has
been made is the certainty that war
will not affect our export trade in iron
or steel nor in any other commodities,
save as it may be retarded by advancing
values. The possibility that exports
might be cut off and thrown back upon
the domestic market to burden and de-
press has been a retarding influence
since war became q certainty, but aside
from the official PRONUNCIATION Of Span
ish policy that American goods not con-
traband of war would be protected in
neutral vessels methods of doing bust
ness are changing to make coniscation
impossible, whatever the Spanish policy
may be. Instead of selling pig iron to
be delivered on dock at Liverpool or
Hamburg, the American furnacemnn
sells il 10 his European customer on
dock at New York or other seaboard
port and guarantees an ocean freigh
to receiving port. The title during
transit on the high seas has thus been
transferred from the American to the
foreigner. On the other hand, the
American importer still buys his goods
deliverable at an American port. He
delays ownership till the goods are be-
yond the chance of forcible detention.
Iron and steel and their products will
continue TO go abroad. irrespective ~
