Financial

New York, June 2S.-The Commercial Advertisers London financial cablegram says:
 The stock market today was still quiet, but there was an almost complete change in speculative sentiment-the reversal of the weakness and depression of the last few days Various factors contributed to this changed feeling. In the first place Berlin ceased the selling that has been in progress since the recent bank fail- ures Then the effects of the failure of the Seventh National Bank are regarded as pretty well discounted. Under these circumstances the bear contingent hastened to repurchase the stocks sold in the belief that prices were going to sag still further. To add to all these dull factors New York held things along by sending buying orders in Atchison, Union Pacific, while the Erie shares were se- verely bought by a big dealer.

Trade With the Philippines.

Washington, Aug. 27.- "A continued
increase in both the export and i'm
port trade OF the Philippines is shown
in comparative statement compiled
at the war department, giving the
commerce of the islands for the seven
months ending January 81, 1901,
and 1900. The total value of mer-
chandise imported during the seven
months ended January 81, 1901, was
SIT, 999, 167, as against $12, STA. 705
for the same period in 1900, and the
merchandise exported was $12, GIT,
359, as against $S. 305, $50 for the 1900
period. This shows an increase OF
AZ per cent in the value OF imports
