The enemy in considerable strength,
opposed Buffers and Pole -Carcw's ad-

and many other guns and pompons

firing until dark was hot and persistent.
Butler hopes that the casualties are not
to exceed fortys Pole-Carew has not

origin.

HENRY CLEWS THINKS THE PRES
ENT ACTIVITY WILL CONTINUE
FOR SOME TIME
APRIL SETTLEMENTS PASSED
Easy Money Practically Assured for
the Coming Three MOnths-Scar-
city of Good Investments
Going to Help.

NEW YORK. April 7.-(Special. )-Hen-
ry Clews says in his weekly financial re-
view:
All indications point to a continued
good active market for some time to
come. The most serious impediments
We're the April settlements These have
been safely passed, and easy money is
practically assured for the next three
or four months. The amount Of money
in circulation on April 1. according to
government returns. was $2,O21, 274 900. an
increase of $99, 427, 900 over the same Tina
last year. Nearly $4,000, 900 of this in
crease was In the month of March. a
considerable portion of which, it Is safe
to presume. was the result of the new
curreny bill, enabling national banks to
issue notes to the par value of their
bonds. A further addition to the vol
ume of currency is to be anticipated from
this measure, but there is no prospect
Of the ridiculous estimates put out by
some parties, who should know better
being realized; and our estimate of
about 800 100000 during the first year still
seems likely to be an outside figure. Con-
tinued demand from out-of-town banks
recently to retire circulation has brought
the aggregate of such deposits at the
subtreasury within 100000 of the April
limit. This is unusually early in the
month for the 100000 limit to be reach
ed, and signifies that interior institutions
see greater profit In selling their bonds
at current prices than keeping out cir
culation on the uncertainty Of having 1t
profitably employed. At present there
are no signs Of stringency in sight, and
money is as easy in the West as in the
East, in spite of great trade activity
AS just said, this Is an important factor
In the stock market for 1t permits nu-
merous large speculative operations
which had hitherto been held In check.
Another consideration not to be lost
sight of is the scarcity of good invest
ments except at prices almost prohibitive
to the present buyer. Government bonds
and gilt-edge securities are so firmly
held and at such high figures, that new
buying, whether for investment or spec
ulative purposes, Is obliged to turn to
the newer issues. Hence the preferred
stocks and low-priced bonds of reorgan-
lied railroads and some of the industrials
have been receiving increased attention
Government bonds are so high that own
ers are frequently tempted to shift their
holdings into securities that yield larger
returns, and the same applies In some
degree to other high-class Investments
Not q few shrewd capitalists are part
ing with fancy issues and taking some
OF the cheaper investments having fu-
ture. There Is still another element that
Is frequently overlooked--the unusual
large sums that must come on the mar
ket for investment during the next six

and activity in business mean not only
larger expenditures by the public and
the stimulus Of new enterprise, but also
larger sums seeking profitable invest
ment.
There Is still one more element to be
considered, and that is the attitude of
the big holders of stocks. For several
months the market has been held back
by the differences and skirmishes of con-
ficting interests. Until these were set
tied cooperation among the big leaders

MEXICO WILL LOOK ON
OTHERWISE HAS LITTLE INTER-
EST IN PRESIDENTIAL. FIGHT.

CITY OF MEXICO. April 8-The
finance committee Of congress has sub
mitted bill on the budget prepared by
Finance Minister Limantour slightly in
creasing appropriations, othe total for the
ensuing fiscal year now amounting to $751;
629, 764. In the fiscalEyear ended June last
the total receipts of the treasury were
$50, lS9, PIP. leaving a surplus Of $6639,67O.
Finance Minister Limantour Is always
conservative in his estimates. of income,
and 1t is expected that the coming fiscal
year will show a handsome surplus. His
policy of accommodating surplus against all
contingencies, and as a guarantee to hold
ers of government bonds, is praised by
the best bankers here. who consider the
financial position of the government ex-
tremely strong. In fact the government
is now authorizing some greatly needed
expenditures without abandoning the pol
icy of holding a comfortable surplus.
Commenting on the changed aspect Of
American politics, called forth by the
candidacy OF Admiral Dewey, the MeXt-
can Herald says: with the gold stand
ard settled in the United States. Mexico
has little practical concern with Ameri-
can politics. The two countries get on
very well together in their international
and commercial relations. and now that
expansion has been found to involve pro-
longed attacks of territorial and ethno-
logical Indigestion, Mexico Is not likely
to see again the specter of absorption. So
far as the presidential campaign prog
resses in the Northern republic, all Next
co will take top seat In the big con-
tinental amphitheater and watch with in
terest the campaign, which is likely to be
one of the most exciting for many years.
No presidential event In the United
States for years has caused more interest
here than the entrance Of Dewey into
the American political arena"
The weather bureau reports heavy and
exceptional rains all over Mexico, which

amined packages of Chicago lard seized
