DUN'S REVIEW.

New York. June 16.-R. G.. Dun &
Co.'S weekly review of trade tomorrow
will say: 1t is one of the frequent para
doXes of business that one thing which
now makes prices rise is the only thing
that clouds the future. The rise in iron
and wheat is because scarcity is feared,
but the scarcity if prolonged and real,
would much impair prosperity. In
wheat it does not seem to be real, nor
IN iron, lasting, and meanwhile other
elements of prosperity continue potent
The scarcity of iron is real in spite
of the greatest production ever known
in this or any other country, 256,O56
tons. weekly, June l, against 25O,O95
May l. For stocks were reduced TO-
092 tons in May indicating a consump-
ton of 1,9S0,SS6 tons, against 100000
tons per month last year, the greatest
ever known. Consuming demand does
not seem to diminish, and appears
greater because it falls upon works
crowded for months ahead with con-
tracts at lower prices, but some of it
is speculative, and would cease with
prospects of lower prices. With more
furnaces going into blast, 10 last
month, the production will oVertake the
demand after a time, and the largest
buyers of finished products for imple-
ments and car works and railroads are
taking nothing to cover next years
need. Pig has been irregularly strong
at the east and at Chicago, and I'M
changed at Pittsburg, while finished
products average 212 per cent higher,
plates, bars, pipe and rails sharing the
advance with demand for structural
forms and sheets beyond the capacity
of works.
Woolens gained little further ad-
VaDpa n CLAW IVOrstp6S and indigo
blues, with generally strong demand
and works well engaged ahead. But
dealers face the stubborn fact that
consumers accustomed to cheap goods
make every advance difficult and mills
appear to be buying very little in
markets, which are counting largely on
a rise in wool. Sales mostly between
traders have been in two weeks 6,247,-
700 pounds, including 1887, 300 do
nestle.
Cotton mills have been fully sus-
tanned without advance in price by
good demand. The cotton market has
not changed, doubts about the coming
yield being held in check by certainty
of large stocks on hand, and the de-
crease in acreage reported by the I'm
ancial chronicle binders faith in the
government estimate of larger re-
duction in acreage of about sc per
cent.
Shipments of boots and shoes from
Boston were over two million pairs for
the week, and for two weeks 1S6093
cases.
Wheat reports by the government
seem to mean just what anybody
wants them to mean, but the Produce
Exchange Interpretation of the June
report, 56S, 900, 900 bushels means no
greater decrease in yield than may be
beneficial both to growers and consum-
ers. Corn exports are better sustained
than wheat, 5,S12, $50 bushels in two
weeks, against 7794,251 last year, and
the price has been steady.
Failures for the week have been 1876
in the United States against 293 last
year, and IS in Canada against 20 last
year.

saying that the Boston & Montana and
Butte & Boston mining companies are

output will be nearly doubled. he says

The u. S. copper production for May
shows a slight decrease compared with
that for May. 1898, while the production
since Jan. has increased 1880 tons over
the same period year ago. This does
not indicate that the high ruling prices
of the metal have served to increase the
production to any appreciable extent.
In fact, 1t would be extremely difficult
to bring about any immediate increase
of production. Exports of copper since
Jan. l have been 1920 tons less than
in 1898.

pany will be composed of the John w.

THE MARKET ELSEWHERE.

New York, June 16.-There was a
which were marked up at the opening
today, and for which a buying demand
existed at intervals during the whole
day. The coalers were conspicuous. es-
pecially the Reading issues, and they
rose on an average of about Il points.
The Flower group also moved up
wards and gave some semblance of
strength to the general market. Aside
from this demand the market was al
most wholly neglected and in the hands
of a small number of professional trad
ers.
The utmost endeavOrs of these oper-
ators did not serve to move prices
more than a small fraction except in
few isolated cases.
The advance in the coaIers was pref
ty well held. 1t was attributed to the
return from Europe of a prominent
financier who has figured in many rail-
road reOrganiZations and to the closing
of options on Lehigh Valley by a sym
pathetic interest.
Some of the railroads displayed a
rather firm tone in sympathy with
Reading, but the movement Of prices
in them was inconsequential. The ad-
vance in the Flower stocks was not so
we'll held and some Of them were more
than lost before the day was over.

DOMINION MINE ACCIDENT.

Stock market trading seems to in
crease in narrowness daily. There
hardly was price change IN Wall
street of Importance enough to call for
comment yesterday, while Boston had
but one feature, the general list being
very quiet.
A bad accident has taken place in one
Of the Dominion Coal company's mines,
an explosion causing many deaths. The
stock fell 8, to 5294, rallying to SAX end
again yielding to So in the afternoon.
Coming at time when something of
a conflict is in progress in the market
this accident was good material for the
bears, and they sold freely. The price
held well, considering the circum-
stances.
General steadiness marked the copper
stocks, and Parrot rose IA, to 541z, hut
other than Bonanza dealings were
light. Central Massachusetts was q
better, at 1914; the bill against the Bos-
ton & Maine is filed and Maine ad-
vanced 21a more today, to 1891.

expectation of more going, but it was
not announced to date. AT the opening
in Wall street yesterday prices were
marked up in the Flower group, Brook
Ign Transit, Federal Steel and Peoples
Gas rising a large fraction. The coal
ers also forged upward under the lead
ership of Reading first preferred, which
gained IA. Sugar opened a shade
down, but quickly rallied a point. A
few of a raj GhnKuad
losses and American Car preferred
dropped IL. The bears frustrated the
attempt to advance the general mar
ket by attacking the grangers. Resist
ance was shown by the speCidlties for
a While, but heavy offerings of Sugar
and profit taking in Brooklyn Transit
and Metropolitan caused an all around
decline. Air Brake jumped points
and the coalers lost but little ground.
Prices rallied before II o'clock.
The dullness and narrOWness of the
movement in the second hours trading
hardly could have been more complete
A large number of the stocks usually
most active was not dealt in and quo
tations in others did not vary Is. Con
spicuous strength was shown by Ten
nessee Coal and by Air Brake, the lat
ter increasing its rise to is points
Bonds were stagnant outside of Read
ing As, which moved up a point on
heavy purchases The market hung
almost lifeless for long periods after
noon. Sugar dropped point and an
easier tone was manifest throughout
but prices hardened again Narrow,
dull and uninteresting, yet steady,
summarizes the story.

the Boston exchange yesterday on stocks
held in Worcester and vicinity:

to do. It is often somewhat so with Gus

there is nothing great about wheat, at

greatest thing about wheat is the trade
they made in it. OF course, if you don't

The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1899-09-26

Editor Morning News: The city fathers
of the town of Warsaw CThunderbolt)
have seen fit to levy tax on the mer-
chants of this city by demanding $500 per
annum from thoseswho accommodate them
by hauling their provisions, beer, liquors
and grain, in fact everything to their sea-
side homes, free of charge, l say this is
unjust and unfair, when the circumstances
are known They say our heavy wagons
coming out there cut up their shell road
on the bluff, which has to be kept in re-
pair, but they do not stop to think that
their heavy wagons use the streets of Sa-
vannah without paying one cent TO help
maintain them They make the excuse
that the saloons of their town, cannot
stand all the taxes, hence they must turn
elsewhere for funds. l ask the question
why don't they tax their real estate?
There are wealthy men living out there
owning real estate, who do not contribute
a dollar for the towns benefit. If they
levied a very small tax on realty. they
would have sufficient money for all pur-
poses. If they persist In taxing merchants
who accommodate them, by hauling their
necessities out free, then it is the duty
of our city Council to levy a tax on their
wagons coming into the city and l beg
that some alderman frame an ordinance to
this effect. One of the Sufferers.
