DOUBT RAISED AS TO THE LETTER.

Washington June 6.-Lieutenant Carranza
and Sefor Du Bose. who are conducting their
Spanish operations from Montreal, have succeed
ed in obtaining brief respite from expulsion
through the denial by Carranza Of the accuracy
Of certain features Of the letter attributed to
him. The British authorities acted on the as
sumption that the translation OF the Carranza
letter was correct. and that thus there was no
doubt that the Spanish officials were using
Canada as a base for hostile action against the
United States. But since question Is raised
as TO the accuracy Of the translation. no step
ia likely to be taken toward q forcible expulsion
until the translation Is stablished as correct.
The British authorities have been ready from
the outset to act any well-estabshed case
but the expulsion Of foreigner is such
serious matter that It 10 said no such step would
be proper while the evidence was open to Ques-
ton. The Carranza denial raised question OF
yeracty which can be readily settled by the pro-
duction Of the original letter This Is not IN the
possession of the State Department but 1t Is
understood to be in the hands OF the Secret
Service branch Of the Treasury When the ac-
curacy Of the translation Is established the
British authorities will act promptly.

Dun's Review of Trade,

r. G. Dun & Co.'S weekly review of
trade says: Europe will have to consider
possible American needs for money much
more anXiOusly in the future. The con-
troll Of this country over money markets
in the old world is coming to be that of
master. Our banks lend over there heav-
lily when it is the most convenient market
for them, but they draw on Europe when
ever they want money, and no longer have
occasion to limit their drafts. This coun-
try is not drawing on Europe as largely
to pay for breadstuffs as it did year ago,
and wheat exports for the week, flour
included, have been 1868, 204 bushels
from Atlantic ports, against 3,677:S6S
bushels last year, and 543,417 bushels
from Pacific ports, against 1904 1893
bushels last year, making for three weeks
lO,2O3,941 bushels from both coasts, flour
included, against 1868, 1913 bushels last
year. Prices have risen sharply, about
cents for the week, and the exports of
corn, though not as large as last year,
have been heavy in comparison with any
other year. The price is slightly advanc-
ed Reports from different cities disclose
a wonderful activity at the chief centers
Of Western trade, the dispatches from
Chicago, st. Paul and st. Louis being
especially significant. Failures for the
week have been I73 in the United States,
against 200 last year, and is in Canada,

Tidings from China and Japan.
Advices from the Orient by the En-
press of India state that China and Japan
have been visited by thunderstorms and
disastrous floods, in which many hundreds
of people have lost their lives. The re-
gion north ofsAh Shang Mountains has
been inundated for hundreds of miles by
the Yellow river Several hundred thou
sand persons have been plunged into the
deepest distress and many into absolute
penury, which local authorities are unable
to alleviate. British Consul Butler, at
Kiung-Chow, has requested the American
consul, DR.. Bedloe, at Canton, to urge
the viceroy to send soldiers to Nodoa,
near Hollow, to protect the lives and
property of American missionaries in that
district. Rev. DR.. p. w. McClintock and
Rev. w. J. Lewerett of the American
Presbyterian mission, district of Hainan,
were obliged to fly for their lives and seek
protection of the British consul at Hol-
chow. Reports of the rebellion in Hal
nan indicate renewed outbreaks of the
freed society," a band of thieves and rob
bers who have been strengthened by pl-
rates. This lawless army has committed
many depredations in the Hollow coun-
try
