New York. July 1.-Dun's weekly re-
view of trade tomorrow viii say:
The second quarter of the year closes
with most encoura ging returns. Failures
have been a little larger than in the first
quarter of the year whereas a decrease
of So per cent might have been expected
from experience of the past ten years,
but with that allowance 4 difference of
only S3,500.e00 can be charged to war and
fears of war whereas solvent payments
through clearing houses for the quarter
were over ST., 500, 900, 600. In the very best
years defaults range from an eighth to
fifth of l per cent of such payments. and
in bad times from third to half of per
cent, but this year the proportion is less
than a fifth. The quarterly statement
given today shows an aggregate of
S3i, ,49S 074, which is smaller than in the
second quarter of year since 1890, except
ed TO firms in business, and to exchanges
through clearing houses, is also smaller
than in any year except one of the past
seven years. The remarkable decrease in
failures for small amounts, and especially
in failures outside the principal centers
of credit and trade, deserve especial at
tention.
The reports of wheat continue extra
ordinary. During the week they have
been (fiour included) 4,O06, 800 bushels from
Atlantic ports against 1854, ,173 last year.
and the Pacific exports, ,564 against
10000 last year. This makes for the
crop year, with some minor ports yet to
hear from, 217.S71 800 bushels exported
against %. .665,S SD in 1892 the year of
largest previous exports, but at the same
time 211, ,452, ,253 bushels of corn have gone
out against 76, 6,602 ,2S5 bushels in that year,
and 1851 ,412 last year, which was much
the largest on record.
1T is judged by experts that in about 80
per cent of the cotton manufactures
machines are now employed and yet the
demand for goods is streng thening. The
volume of business shown by clearing
house exchanges IS 23.4 per cent larger
than last year for the month. and 11.9
per cent larger than in 1892. while rail-
road earnings from all roads reporting for
tbs first half of the year have been
I0S per cent larger than last year. and
5.5 per cent larger than in 1892
Failures for the week have been 25i
in the United States against 241 last year
and 10 in Canada, against 80 last year

There Is very little reason TO try pre-

news SO far from Santiago has been eX-

how the traders Will regard the war tax

GOV. BLACKS MESSAGE.
New Yorl>'s Executive Calls Attention
to Failing Commerce.

The legislature of the state of New York
met and organized yesterday. The senate,
with membership of fifty, has a republi-
can majority of twenty; the assembly,
with 80 names on the roll, is republican
by eight In both houses the republican
caucus nominees were elected without any
unusual incident. The speaker of the as
sembly IS j. NJ. Z. O'Grady, who presided
during the session of 1897.
In his message to the Legislature Gov.
Black said that the state tax for the
present year is S2.67 on a thousand dol
lars. This rate produces the sum of ST.
N33, So The receipts from licenses to
sell liquor, tax on inheritance, &c, were
$S,25, 112.SI, an excess over last year of

So, $50. So The total funded debt of the
state September 30 was $685. GEO.
The commerce of New York was not in
creasing as rapidly as that of other ports.
II it were true that the commerce tribu-
tary to New York city had been checked
and discouraged by a too narrow policy
prevailing there with reference to term
inal facilities, that policy should be cor
rected. Millions of money from the gen.
eral treasury have been expended in New
York harDor with national sanction, and
millions more should be expended now
in deepening the approaches to her har-
Dor. The governor recommended that a
commission be created to examine into
the commerce of New York, the cause OF
its decline. the means of its revival, and
to report conclusions.

AGAIN BRINGS SUIT,
Mrs. Winter Files Bill for Damages
Against Richard Mansfield


Mary Sanders Winter will endeavor once
Mansfield, the actor, now playing an en-
gagement in this city, for breach of con-
tract.
Through Attorneys NJ. j. Colbert and
Charles J. Murphy, suit at law was late
yesterday filed against Mr.. Mansfield.
The plaintiffs named are Mary Sanders
Winter and Percy Winter, her hrspan
Damages in the sum of 5000 are asked.
The declaration recites that March Is,
1895, Mary Sanders Winter agreed with
Mr.. Mansfield to render him her services
as an actress for the theatrical season of
1S95-'96. She was to receive $40 per week,
it is explained. Mansfield. without cause
or justification, dismissed her from his
service, Mrs. Winter says, and refused to
pay her the sum agreed upon as salary.
Continuing, the declaration sets forth
that Mrs. Winter agreed with Mansfield
to remain in. the city of New York to seek
other employment, and to credit what she
might earn from such employment to what
Mansfield agreed to pay her, and if she
did not find other employment until the
date of the expiration of the contract to
enter Mansheld'S service when called upon
In consideration of this Mansfield it is ex-
planned, agreed to pay her $50 per week
from the Sd of December, 1895, to the 18th
of June. 1886.
In conclusion, Mrs. Winter declares that
Mansfield wholly. repudiated this latter
agreement. Therefore she files suit to re-
cover damages in the sum Of $1,000
An effort is to be made to serve the pro-
cess Of the court on Mr.. Mansfield in the
suit of law filed year ago by Ethel Doug
las, an actress, the case being similar to
that In which Mrs. Winter appears as
plaintiff. 1t will be remembered that Mr.
Mansfield very cleyerly eluded the deputy
marshal who attempted to serve the pro-
cess in the case instituted by Ethel Doug
las. The matter has been pending ever
since, awaiting the return in this city Of
Mr.. Mansfield.
