Report Of Trade.

New York, May 4.-Bradstreet's re.
port for last week is:
A further subsistence Of demand and
leveling Of prices was noted in several
lines, the levsling being no doubt aided
by the unsettling effect of the rather
more than usually disturbed conditions
in labor circles. Its net result is some
thing approaching dullness in many
channels Of distribution, increased con-
servatism in making Of ventures and
a disposition to digest business already
arranged for before making new en-
gagements. That the basic conditions
Of general crops, the export demand
and the increased purchasing power Of
the people at large have not been much
reduced, but on the contrary, actually
improved seems evident from the ad-
vices received this week. Business at
wholesale is relatively quieter, which
is not unusual at this period, but more
than ordinary marked attention is be-
ing concentrated upon retail demand,
which is of course relied upon as a
measure of progress of actual consump-
ton.
Touching this public demand it may
be stated that relatively best reports
come from the Pacific coast and from
the northwest.
Flour shipments were very large.
Wheat Qncluding flour), shipments for
the week aggregate 4,537,022 bushels,
against 3,863,S63 bushels last week,
3,8S4,0s1 bushels in the same week of
1899, and 2,923,775 bushels in 1898.
For the week failures number 1853
in the United States, as compared with
1872 last week, 164 in this week year
ago and 240 in 1898. Failures for April
in the Dominion of Canada were fewer
than in April year ago, but liabilities
were nearly Is per cent heavier.

Gale In Nebraska.

Omaha, May GA special from Viii
sonville, Neb., gives the most meager de-
tails OF terrific gale accompanied by
heavy rain and hail that swept that sec
ton this evening. Much destruction is
known to have resulted, but how much
can not be told.
In the northern part of the town one
house was blown down, the occupants
escaping "A Presbyterian church was
destroyed and many barns and outbuild-
ings demolished.
In the country along the path of the
storm ruin is widespread. Several farm
houses were blown to pieces and a num-
Der of people injured. So far as is known
no one was killed.

Hon. Dan. A. Grosvenor, deputy
auditor for the war department, in
letter written from Washington, D. G.,
says,
"A1ow me to express my gratitude to
you for the benefit derived from one bottle
Of Peruna. One week has brought wonder.
ful changes and am now as well as ever.
Besides being one of the very best spring
tonics It Is an excellent catarrh remedy"
Very respectfully, Dan. A. Grosvenor.
Hal P. Denton, chief national export
exposition, Philadelphia, Pa, writes:
II was completely run down from
overwork and the responsibility natur-
ally connected with the exploitation OF
a great international exposition. My
physician recommended an extended
vacation. When life seemed almost
burden I began taking Peruna, and
with the use of the fifth bottle / found
myself in a normal condition. have
since enjoyed the best of health"
Almost everybody needs tonic in
the spring. Something to brace the
nerves, invigorate the brain, and
cleanse the blood. That Peruna will
do this is beyond all question. Every
one who has tried it has had the same
experience as Mrs. D. W. Timberlake,
of Lynchburg, Va, who, in a recent
letter, made use of the following words:
II always take dose Of Peruna after
business hours, as it is a great thing
for the nerves. There is no better
spring tonic, and l have used about all
of them"

OFFICERS At MANNA RESIGN
SIX HUNDRED SEND THEM IN.
Fred Perkins So states-General Otis
Has Their acknowledgements
Death From Disease the Reason
Complain of Inaction.

San Francisco, May 8.-Ensign Fred
Perkins, son of Senator Perkins, who
won distinction in the Philippines on the
cruise of the Bennington, confirms the
story of young officer who has returned
recently from the Philippines that there
are between 500 and CO., volunteer officers
now at front who have rendered their
designations to General Otis Only a
few of the designations have ever reached
Washington. Most Of the officers are
young men who were appointed from
civil life at the outbreak of the war and
were not trained for the trade of war.
The principal reason they give for want
ing to return home is that it means sure
death from disease to remain in .4,e
Philippines under existing conditions.
"The trouble is" said the young Off
Ger, that the boys are not permitted to
60 after the enemy and finish them, as
is generally understood to be the thing
in warfare. They have to do sort of
police duty, and that means lying in the
ain-soaked camps and only occasionally
having brush with the enemy. Death
from disease always stares them in the
face. When a man gets sick he is sent
to the hospital and gets excellent treat
ment, but when he becomes convalescent
and needs to be Quilt up he has no chance.
A run up to Kobe or Yokohama would
give him fresh air and a change and
brace him up, but he cannot get it. Ine

War Exists There.
Washington, May 6.-Judge Advocate
General Lieber has given an opinion t.
the secretary of war, to the effect ..lat
General Otis, commanding the division o
the Philippines, acted fully within hi
legal authol..y in ordering the dismisss
of Major George w. IAlrkham, Forty
ninth volunteer infantry, and three othe
oincers in execution of sentences of court
martial and convection of violation O
various articles of war. This opinion
carries with it by implication, the ide.
that state of war exists in the Phnip
pine islands, as otherwise, under the army
regulations, the general commanding il
the field would have have final jurisdic
the dismissal of an officer of the army.
