Hundreds of thousands of pounds III
good British gold, good German marks

into the country; but, judging from ad
vices, all this charity is merely drop in

The famine and its attendant comph

viceroy, Lord Curzon, of Kedleston, and
the government, are making ceaseless
exertions to meet the terribleemergency.

of relief to more than 100000.
In the meantime the native states are
dotted with heaps of dead and dying.

stricken territories, but who, for lack of
food and water, mostly succumb in the
attempt.

BANK ROBBERS
MAYBE CAPTURED.
Three Men Suspected of BurgIarizing the
East Brady (Pa.) Bank Placed
Under Arrest.

EAST BRADY, May Tt is believed
that the three men who robbed the East
Brady bank have been captured.
S. J. Artman, of Rimersburg, brother
in-law of ]. w. Hill, cashier of the bur-
glarized bank, notified the bank by tele.
graph that he had captured the three
men seen at East Brady, and had them
in the borough lookup at East Bethle-
hem. The names given by the men are
Michael Hagan, Patrick Hennesey and
Thomas Carter. They are rough-ap.
pearing characters, between 30 and 40
years of age. Hagan has lost his left
arm. The men, it was asserted, will be
brought here for investigation today.
1t is not yet known whether any of
the money or property has been recov-
cred. William Meter, of East Brady,
Dne of the stockholders of the First Ma

men were seen by Constable Nasbinder,
None of the money or government
bonds were recovered. How the men
carried tine 300 pounds weight of cur

DIDN'T THREATEN DISASTER
Dun's Comment ON April Faiiures-New
business Brought Out by Reduc-
tion In the Price of Iron.

NEW YORK, May 5.-R. G. Dun 8
90. IS weekly review of trade, issued to-
lay, said in part:
Failure returns for April are especial
ly valuable, because they show that
there does not exist, in the most impor-
tant branches of business, the conditions
which threaten disaster.
The reduction in prices of iron and
steel and their products has gone far
enough to bring out much new bust
ness. At the end of last week cut nails
were reduced 45c per keg, and in plates
and bars somewhat lower prices have
been reported. Prices for sheets have
not yet been named, but in pipes and
tubes there is some yielding, with larger
business in fence and other wire mate
rials since the reduction.
Not a sale of Bessemer pig is reported,
the association still asking $24.90, while
eastern pig is offered at PittsDurg be-
low s23 and local forge is lower at $50,
with eastern at $l9.75. Chicago local
coke has declined 90 cents and southern
also. Eastern markets are irregular,
with growing belief that an output ex.
ceeding consumption will reduce prices
until the demand again expands. There
are large foreign contracts for pig pend
ing and important sales of finished
products for export have been made. II
helps toward better adjustment that
coke is quoted 81 per ton lower than q
month ago, and anthracite coal has also
declined.
The close of the wool year has come
without the scarcity which some eX
pected, but with the average of quota
tons by Coates Bros. reduced i'll April
about / cent. Sales have been small
and yet in excess of purchases for con,
sumption. Manufacturers have so far
refrained as to show that they were
much better supplied, six months or 6
year ago, than dealers are willing to be
lieve. The market for goods, excepting
the most favored staples, has been 81
far unsettled and irregular as to give
small encouragement for buying WOO
at current prices. Interior holders art
still strong, hoping that the end of the
season brings the end of manufacturers
stocks.
April exports of breadstuffs have been
large, both wheat and corn SURPRISING
last years record. The price of wheat
closed as it opened, while corn declined
2 cents.
All exports from New York in fouI
weeks have been 1874 per cent, or over
$11,OOO,OO0 larger than last year, and
with the gain of $l5,000,000 in cotton
