DUN's REVIEW OF TRADE.
Prospects for the Heaviest Trad
Ever Transacted.

Ever Transacted.
New York, April 2l.-R. G. Dun &.
Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade will say
tomorrow:
Nothing appears in business or in
money markets to prevent continuance
of the heaviest trade ever transacted
at good profits. The payment to Spain
is supposed to have caused some rise
in foreign exchange which would
amount to nothing in any case. as bal
ances due from other countries more
than cover the payment. and advance
bills against crops to come forward in
July and later will soon be offered.
Loans on industrial securities are still
at higher rates than on railway stocks,
but on good commercial paper or rail-
road stocks money is in ample supply
and at low rates. Nor have stock oper-
ations caused any appearance of pres
sure. The financing of new corpora
tions has passed thus far with less
trouble than had been feared, though
the completion of some organizations
is hindered or has failed The usual
time for financial troubles in the spring
has passed and the usual alarm about
crops has done its work, and still in
dustries are undisturbed.
The one hindrance in stock specula-
tion is doubt about the crops, but bet
ter unofficial reports have supported in
ferences warranted by the heavy re-
CENTS from the farms and south.
Farmers do not send wheat or cotton
to market in large quantities when
crops anywhere near them are exten-
sively spoiled, Wheat receipts have
been 75l1. .343 bushels against 5,2O6, 643
last year in three weeks of April, and
the Improvement since April is worthy
of notice. Exports have fallen off,
amounting from both coasts to only
6,77i,774 bushels, flour included, in
three weeks, against 10,919,122 last
year and the price closes but 1s cent
higher than last week Corn is about
steady in price, with a decrease in ex-
ports natural at this season. Cotton
rose on Monday with the slaughter Of
Liverpool shorts and closed an eighth
higher, but without reason to expect a
short year.
Men who have held wool stiffly for
more than year are selling freely at
bottom prices, admittedly the lowest of
the year. Sales at the three chief
markets in two weeks have been 23,-
2Oi,2S5 pounds, of which 1887 ,58j were
| domestic, against 15,90s1OO pounds in
| 1892, Territory WOOL 100000 pounds,
was sold for export to England and l,
| 100000 Australian in bond, which has
been held here fifteen months, fine wool
being very high there while cross bred
| is so low that it can now be imported.
| With assurance of better prospects for
goods, woolen manufacturers are wait
! Ing for the effect of various combina-
tions. The demand is not at present
especially large, and considerable ma
chinery is idle. Cotton has advanced
an eighth but exports are small, TAX
| ing of spinners are small, and the
| prospect for the next crop are not
bad while visible stocks are remark
ably large. An advance Of 4 in some
staple goods is considered significant
and may influence other prices. Fail
| ures for the week have been 1874 in the
| United States against 204 last year
and 22 in Canada against 20 last year

New NeCkWear

There's an interesting show case,
and display fixture above, in the
front of the store. They hold a
collection of Partisan novelties in
Women's Neckwear. Light, filmy,
airy creations of Sheer Lawns,
Nets, Chiffons, Liberty Silks and
LaceS, with trimmings, shrrings,
tuckings and appliqueing. The
New York styles match beauties
with the Paris fashions and keep
one another short company. A
new assortment has lately come.
We don't think so many styles are
shown in any one store outside of
the great cities. One style is 2sc.
another is $500. That is the
range. Probably fifty prices be-
tween those ends.

Spanish Terror in Eight tathoms
of Water.

Santiago de Cuba, April 2t.--The
wreck of the Spanish torpedo boat de-
stroyer Pluton, which was sunk in the
great battle that resulted in the de-
struction of Admiral CeryeIas squad
ron, was discovered yesterday about
three miles west of Moro castle in
eight fathoms of water. 1t was found
by divers from the Yankton, who made
a thorough inspection, finding the huh
lying on the port side and with no in
dication of having been struck by a
heavy shell, as was originally reported.
The vessel, however, is badly stove
and literally riddled with siN-pound
shot. Evidently the Gloucester did her
work we'll that day, for the Pluton is
utterly ruined, and no attempt will be
made to raise her

What Makes Success.

'sWe are forever going to begin
work Tomorrow" SAID Mr.. Staybolt,
land we are never satisfied with the
job we've got, and we perform the
labor involved in it in a half hearted
manner, but We are going to work in
dead earnest when we get job to suit
US.
'sThe fact is that tomorrow, when
we get to it, will be to us as to-day is
to US now; we shan't feel any more
like work. And that another Job,
when we come in actual contact with
it and see it close at hand won't suit
us any better than the one we've got
now does.
ssThe truth is that we are cavaliers
and shy of work and trying to get
along just as easy as we can. We
hate to pitch In and go at things.
'sThe time for us to work is now
and not tomorrow, and the job for
US to collar is the one we've got.
Round that up in style, do the work
completely and thoroughly, and you'll
be astonished to find how you'll bring
it out and what chances there are in
it and everybody that knows about
your work or is in any way concerned
or affected by it, as it is done we'll or
i'll, will be delighted TO see it well
done-and pleased with the doer, and
there's money in it every time.
cit isn't the job that makes sue
cess. It's the man and don't you
forget it."

THE HATFIELDS AND McCOYS
Threaten Trouble Again Time This
LawIessness was Ended.

Trouble is again brewing between
the Hatfield Mccoy factions, caused
by the kidnapping of Bill Tom Hat
geld by some of the Mccoy sympathi-
zers. Hatfield has been serving sem
tence in the Williamson Jail, and his
sentence expired Tuesday. A short
while before he was released a party
of men representing themselves to be
officers from Logan county, called at
the jail and notified the sheriff that
Hatfield was wanted in Logan on a
charge of murder, and Hatfield was
turned over to the supposed Logan
officials. It now turns cut that there
was no charge at all against Hatfield
in Logan, but he was wanted in Ken
lucky on charge Of murder. A short
time after leaving Williamson with
their prisoner the men changed their
course and Hatfield was hurried to
Pikeville, Ky, and lodged in jail.
s'DeyilH Anse Hatfield says the kid
mapping Of his sou Bill Tom is the
last straw, and he intends to see that
the kidnappers pay the penalty. 1t
will be remembered that the kidnap-
ping Of one of the Hatfields was re-
sponsible for the killing of "Doc"
Ellis.

PENNSYLVANIA
REPUBLICANS
Indorse the Appointment of
Quay by Governor Stone.

The Boss Holds Supreme Power Over
the Organization and Has His own
Way in Everything full Ticket
Nominated and Good Place Given
Lieutenant Colonel Barnett, of the
Tenth Regiment.
HARRISBURG, Pa, August 24.-The
following ticket was nominated to-
day by the Republican State conven-
tion:
Supreme Court Judge, J. Hay
Brown, of Lancaster.
Superior Court Judge, Josiah r.
Adams, of Philadelphia.
State Treasurer, Lieut. Col James
Barnett, of the Tenth Pennsylvania
regiment.
The only dlscordant note in the con-
yention was sounded by Senator VIM.
Finn, Of Pittsburg, chairman of the
anti-Quay organization in the last leg
islature. Mr.. Finn opposed the
plank in the platform endorsing the
appointment of United States Sena-
tor Quay by Governor Stone. A roll
call was taken on the adoption of the
platform as whole, and it was adopt
ed by 1872 to 40. The anti-Quay dele
gates generally voted against the
adoption of the platform and the
nomination of Mr.. Ada ms.
Before the result of the ballot for
supreme court judge was announced,
the friends of Judge Archibald, of
Scranton, and Attorney General Pal
mer, of Wilkesbarre, moved to make
Mr.. Browns nomination unanimous,
Superior Court Judge Dinner Beeber,
of Philadelphia, was named in oppo-
sition to Mr.. Adams, and received the
votes of many anti-Quay delegates.
The nomination of Col. Barnett
was made by reclamation.
Aside from the nomination of the
ticket and the adoption of the plat
form, new rules were presented and
adopted for the government of the
State organization.
The star attraction was the pres
ence Of Senator Quay as delegate
from Beaver county. He entered the
convention hall with Chairman Elkin
just before the assemblage was called
to order. His friends instantly recog-
nized him and cheered and applauded
as he took his seat along the center
aisle. He remained until after the
meeting of the resolutions committee
and then quietly retired. Senator G.
L. Magee, of Pittsburg, was conspicu-
Gus by his absence. He is GONZALES
cent from a severe illness, and by the
advice of his physician he did not at
tend the convention.
Col. Quay started this evening with
a small party of friends on trip to
the head of the Restigouche river in
Canada, where he will spend three
weeks hunting moose and fishing for
salmon and trout.
