REVIEW OF TRADE.
Iron and Steel Higher Wheat and Corn
without Notable Change Lumber
Advanced

New York, March 2.-Bradstreet's
commercial report says: Trade re-
ports from dstributive centers at the
west continue encouraging while such
measures Of trade volume as bank
clearings and railway earnings indi-
cate a considerable gain in business
over year ago. soft spots are, Of
course, TO be found, notably in the
manufacturing branches Of the ce,-
ton and the wool trade. In the norti.
west cold weather has to certain
extent retarded spring trade prepara-
tons, but the agricultural implement
trade is reported nearly equal to .
year ago at Minneapolis.
The strength Of iron and steel this
week recalls the boom Of 1899. 1t is
probable, TOO, that the broad and
strong consumptiye demand and not
the operations Of pools or cliqyes is
responsible for the steady advances.
Practically all markets report iron
and steel higher. st. Louis alone re-
ports foundry iron consumers indif-
ferent.
The cereals are without notable
change wheat and corn being frac-
tionally lower in dull, scalping mar
ket. Corn is rather in better export
demand, but rumors of Il IDEAL" at
Chicago restrict operations some
what. Lumber is strong in price.
pending the resumption OF general
building operations. Western advices
are especially bullish. Chicago has
done the heaviest business ever re.
corded in yellow pine and white pine.
Stocks have been broken badly by
the active demand, which has adj
vanced prices 81 to $3.50 above the
list.

work as originally outlined, drawing
up the electoral law.
In the afternoon the delegates held
an informal meeting, and after some
discussion agreed to wait until con-
gress had acted on the Cuban amend
ment.
The full text of the amendment was
received by Gen. Wood Tuesday night
and was given the following morning
to Senior Tamayo. chairman of the re-
lations committee, Senior Tamayo
said at the time that the committee
had reached it's conclusions, but he
was urged TO withhold an announce
ment of those conclusions until the
proposed amendment had been CON
sdcred, in order to avoid the posi-
biity Of radical change of opinion. If
the amendment should be adopted.
Several delegates, on hearing yes
tcrday evening that congress had
adopted the amendment, said this
would not affect the attitude of the
convention, as its members would not
agree to the scheme of relations sug-
gesicd in the amendment.

CHINESE IMBROCLIO.
President Mckinley Said to Be For
Peace At Any Price.
WANTS no UNNECESSARY BLOODSHED


London, March 1.-Sir Ernest Satow
and Mr.. Conger, after consulting with
the missionaries, have decided, &C
cording to the Pekin correspondent
of the Morning Post, to reject the
Chinese proposition made on the sug-
gestion of NJ. Pichon, that they should
act as representatives Of the minis
tiers of the powers to discuss with
the Chinese plenpotentiaries the mis-
sionary question and the claims of
native converts.
''The Russians are taking advan-
tage of the existing situation and
are pressing Ii Hung Chang hard to
rush through the Manchurian con-
vention," says the Pekin correspond
ent Of the Times, wiring Wednesday.
"More than one power besides Japan
and England has demonstrated with
China against the negotiations that
are proceeding at st. Petersburg"
Commenting editorially upon its
Pekin advices, the Times says: "The
United States and Germany might
perhaps be supposed to recognize the
mischief China's policy entails, but
President Mckinley at all events
seems bent on peace at any price
No Unnecessary Bloodshed Wanted.
Washington, March Especial Com
missioner Rockhill, at Pekin, has been
instructed to make it known to the
foreign ministers that the president
strongly deprecates any action that
will tend TO delay or check the pres
ent negotiations there and especially
is he DESTROYS that there shall be no
further unnecessary bloodshed. 1t is
believed that our commissioner will
be able to secure the cooperation of
n sufficient number of the other min
listers to insure cessation of the punt
tive demands which, it is believed by
officials here, are not only unworthy
of civilized nations, but threaten to
drive the Chinese to desperation and
thereby cause renewal of armed
resistance on their part
Accuses the Quilted States.
Berlin, March The statements OF
a number of English and American
newspapers that Germany purposes
TO make new land acquisitions in
China and is constantly formulating
new demands on the Chinese govern
ment-thc most recent of which are
alleged to be the executions of addi-
tional provincial authorities for anti
European outrages--ha caused in
dgnation in Berlin, as the facts do
not seem to warrant them. Germany
has good reason to suspect" said a
high official yesterday. "that such de-
mands as are attributed to her really
emanate on the contrary from the
United States and England, both of
whom have lost missionaries and
other white citizens in the Chinese
provinces, which is also the case with
France and Italy. On the other hand,
Germany has not lost single mis-
sionary, but is backing up the de-
mands of the United States and En-
gland so as to preserve the solidarity
Of the powers at Pekin."
