RRADsTREET's REVIEW.

New York, May a.-Bradstreets to- morrow will say:
 Unreasonable weather has been the key of the general situation this week, dis couraging as 1t has been to retail de- partments in the cities and country dis tricts alike. and retarding the growth of most crops, but particularly corn and oats in the northern half of the South, and cotton at the South. Wthal, how ever, sunny weather, decided lack of which has so far been noted this spring, would do much to place matters com mereial and agricultural in better con dition than has heretofore existed in sea- son.
 Labor troubles have their effect in the metal business This though no adjust ment Is at present in sight, will not last forever, and of course, as in past strikes, business will be resumed with renewed impetus at it's conclusion.
 Cotton is higher in the face of large re- ceipts and reports of slow trade because the prospect as to the near months, par ticularly July is still doubtful, and ow- ing to covering by the short interest in that and the succeeding month. The crop. Is at least two weeks late. but the aver age will probably be from 5 to 10 per cent larger some of which will perhaps be lost but still leaving a comfortable mar
 
 weather succeeds shortly. As for some time past new business in iron and steel Is small, while produc- tion on orders is at the maximum. Steel billets are temporarily scarce and 50 cents higher, while Bessener pig is ruling 20 cents better. Southern iron is dull and weak and present quotations could be cut DO cents if business were offered. Finish ed products are generally strong and the mills are still crowded with business. Rail mills have seasons output guaranteed, the wire mills are pushed with orders and bar and plate production is reported sold ahead Rumors of advances to come after July 1 are heard, but nothing tam gible offers in this respect with new business in such small volume. Hardware is in good shape and May sales at Chica- go were the heaviest for any month this year.
 Wheat shipments for the week aggre- gate 4.13S.000 bushels. including flour, against 5,6OO,00O bushels in the corres- bonding week of 1900.
 From July 1 to date this season wheat exports are 194 1S7. .632 bushels against 1S2,- 926,706 last year and 213 4S9, ,240 in 1S9S-99. Corn exports for the week aggregate g. 7.34S bushels against 2.204,9O2 bushels last week.
 From July I to date this season corn exports are 165 622, ,106 bushels against 1S9.- 535,64S bushels last season and 155, ,801, ,590 bushels in 1S9S-99.

BAILEY
Of Texas Takes Dark View of the
 InsuIar Case Decision.

New York May S1.-A Washington dis patch to the Herald is as follows:
 Senator Joseph w. Bailey of Texas who Is regarded as a strong constitutional lawyer, takes decided grounds against the decision in the Porto Rican cases
 Friends of the administration are congratulating themselves too early" he said today, If they think this decision relieves them from the embarrassment of constitutional restriction in dealing with our new possessions. They will find the question of taxation one of the least among the perplexities of a colonial pol icy. The court is apt to find that the next case will not furnish it with a sub terfuge like the words The United States to which they can limit constitu- tional guarantees. They will be com pelled to meet the proposition whether Congress can enact laws for these in suiar possessions which are contrary to the express inhibitions of the constitu- tion. ..
 If the court should decide that Con gross cannot do this. the entire scheme of colonial government will fail If the cOurt snail uec1ue mat Tn dealing With those islands Congress is bound by di- rect and positive restrictions on its pow CTS then we have reached an end of the time-honored doctrine that this govern ment is one of limited and enumerated powers. and we are face to face with the proposition that the power of the American Congress over unrepresented islands is as absolute and untrammelled as the power of the British Parliament over the colonies of Great Britain.
 ''The decision standing by itself will be- come the source of endless mischief and confusion"

A Great Exhibition.

Memphis, Tenn, May 31.-(Special J. Birmingham took the Frankfurters into camp and won the second of the series of four by the narrow margin of to 8, snatching victory from the jaws of de- feat in the sixth inning, when the tally stood to 2 in favor of the locals.
 Robb was on the slab and the red-shirted hustlers did not seem to have the least trouble connecting with his slants and benders. They got six safe ones off of Tecumseh and, though scattered his three passes to first and the indifferent infield work lost the game. Bussey and Handi- boe did not play according to form and booted several at critical points in the game that were disastrous. But Bussey redeemed himself by making the star play of the day, when, in the second round, he connected with one of Wilhelm's drops and raised 1t over the left garden fence. Handiboe was on first and when they paced across the plate the 900 spectators present rose in a body and howled for the old man.
 Two clever double plays and some pretty outfield work marked the game and made it interesting, but the infieid support of neither team was anything to crow over.
 Swacina played short for Beecher. ow- ing to the fact that the latter had a lame  record of five put outs and two assists out of eight chances. Shaumeyer played the game and seems to have caught on with the fans.
 When the game opened the clouds that had been weeping intermittently all day broke and the sun tried to shine. This seemed to make everybody feel better and the leaguers lit in after the ball with a jump.
 Tn the first half the boys in the red shirts and black s9cks got one run. Veitch was given the Circuit on a series of errors and La Rocque's fly to Mo Kevitt. Memphis failed to tally. going to the bench in numerical order and the fur mace men failed to connect again till the fifth round.
 In the sixth round the visitors punched their hits an6 got the two tallies that clinched the game Leidy went out on first Gettinger hit safe to right field and took second on Grroeres tumble. La Rocque singled to center and on the short throw by Martin to the plate Get tinger scored and La Rocque followed on Culver's safe hit. Sullivan's long drive was nailed by Martin and Mauch went down on first retiring the side.
