James r. Chapman. an electrical en-

SOUTH AMERICAN AFFAIRS.
Playing Their Usual Game of Revolu-
ton in Several States.

NEW YORK. Oct. ga dispatch to
the Herald from Panama says:
The Heralds correspondent in Bo-
goto sends word that section Of the
liberal party, induced by a branch Of
the conservative party, now called the
historicals, revolted in santander. The
government and a majority Of the lib
erals, however. are resolved to main
tain peace.
The government has declared the re
public under martial law. 1t will issue
new paper currency as may be re-
auired. 1t controls the railroads river
steamers and telegraph lines and is
acting with prudence and moderation.
Il had been planned by the historicals
to seize General Jose Santos. the min
lister Of war, but the attempt failed.
This may bring about the fall Of the
party and cause important political
changes and developments in the near
future.
The department Of Antioguia, Cauca
and Panama have remained quiet so
far.
Liberals in Bolivar rose in arms on
October p, under Julio Vengoechea,
and started blowing up four bridges on
the railway line between Cartagena
and Calimar, taking up rails, cutting
telegraph wires and obstructing river
navigation py sinking dredges at the
entrance.
General Rodriguez, with large force
Of men, left on the same evening on
the steamer Hercules, going up the riv-
er in pursuit of the revolutonists. He
was followed by the steamers Colom-
bia, La Faurie and Manuela Aycardi.
This was the situation when the
Spanish steamer left Cartagena on oc-
tober %. There was then considerable
excitement in Cartagena.
Official advices received by the gov
ernor here state that the national gov
ernment is organizing about 500 men to
march on santander under General HUI

IRON AND METAL
TRADE CONDITION
THE WORK OF THE wEEK
The Transaction Large in Keeping
With the General business
Prosperity,

NEW YORK, Oct 2s.-Discussing the
conditions of the iron and metal trades,
the Iron Age will today say:
There has been very active week in
some branches OF the iron trade and in
the cruder products some large trans
actions have taken place. One interest
has purchased fully $1,000 tons OF basic
pig in different parts Of the country
and has options on some additional
amounts II Is reported that, so far as
the iron purchased in Western PennsyI-
vanis is concerned, it was on the basis
OF S2l at furnace.
In bessemer pig one large consuming
interest has taken about $4,000 tons at
S23, at valley furnaces, for the first half
Of 1890, in addition to a lot of 10000 tons
referred to last week. Pittsburg re-
ports sales OF forge iron aggregating
25.O0O tons. In charcoal iron there has
beer a heavy movement also; report
has 1t that a very large block has been
taken for car-wheel purposes. and
some good business has been done in
iron for malleable purposes. with one
inquiry for 10000 tons in the western
market.
A number OF conferences have been
held by some Of the large billet pro-
ducers, but, so far as We can learn, no
definite action has been taken. Some
large trades have taken place on the
basis Of relatively low figures, but spe-
cial conditions governed these transac-
tions, so that the prices do not reflect
the market accurately. In that way, a
80, ,OOe-ton lot was placed, in addition to
the 5O,GOb-ton transaction referred to
last week
The opportunity given to the rail-
roads to come in at S33 before the price
was raised to SS5 seems to have been
very widely availed Of and in some in
stances the tonnage placed by individ-
ual roads was very large, while in 9TH
ers It was below the usual quantities.
The movement, which has now culmi-
mated, began as early as August, and a
good deal Of tonnage was placed at fig
ures running up from S28 to $29. The
total now on the books for 1900 delivery
is variously estimated at 100000 tons
to 1,5O0, O0e tons, not including from 2oO,-
900 to 100000 tons to be carried over the
current year. Among the recent sales
