REVIEW OF TRADE.
Trade Is Che -riul--No Perc p!ibls efIlci Of
Tho New Monetary Acl IN 6us,-
ness Cenlets,

K. G.. Dun & Co.'S Weekly Review
OF Trade" says; The new monetary act
has not affected business perceptibly
as yet. The grain movement is fading
in importance. Corn exports have been
in two weeks only 5,4Q7, ,Io2 bushels.
against 7,I26,553 last year. though prior
to March I32,oS2,02S bushels were ex-
ported, against oo,S54oS4 last year
The wheat movement is falling behind
rather less than il has been in recent
weeks, owing partly to large Pacific
shipments. Atlantic exports in two
weeks have been 3,ooo,454 bushels,
Hour included, against 622o47S last
year, and Pacific exports 2,566o77 bush
els, against I,427,376 last year. Jealous
efforts to excite new confidence in
higher prices for iron have not had the
desired effect While various markets
are called stronger, not n quotation has
advanced, but tank plates at Pittsburg
are shade lower at cents. Eastern
grey forge has sold there in considera-
bic quantity at $50. so, against S2Ioo for
local forge and Southern No. I foun-
dry is selling here at $2275, against
$23.5o for Northern. No. I Bessemer
pig is still held at $24.oo at valley mills,
though small lots are obtainable at
Pittsburg at $24,5o Many large con-
tracts are mentioned as in prospect, but
not one as closed, except a structural
contract for the government printing
office Much work is deferred because
OF the builders and machinists' strike
at Chicago and because OF doubt
whether prices can be held with the
output exceeding consumption over
1000 tons per day. Failures for the
week have been 1913 in the United
States, against I8o last year. and 20 in
Canada, against 80 last year.

THE WESTWARD.

Judge Brooks, of Sunrise City, made a pleasant call at the News office last week. Sunrise City is the metropolis of the Cook Inlet country and is situ- ated on Turnagain Arm. It has a popu- lation of about 25O whites. The Judge has resided there for about four years and during that time has made incur. sions into the surrounding wilds that have impressed him with the wonderful possibilities that the future may con- tain for that locality. He has the most accurate map of Turnagain and Knik Arms that we have yet seen. He is per sonally acquainted with every prospec- ter and every mine in that district and knows just what they are doing. He says that mining in Alaska is yet in it's infancy; that when the properties now discovered are developed the output will be something wonderful.
 The Judge is pleasant, sociable gen. tlemau and the gems of thought and in- formation just bubble out of his mouth, He came down on the Bertha and will return on the same boat. We were pleased to have him call and hope he will come again.
