the leaders. The terrible tragedy has
cast a gloom over the whole city and
will undoubtedly be felt throughout
the day, which heretofore has been so
brilliant and full of happiness for Yale
and her sons.
The full details of the terrible acci-
dent will never be known. Mr.. Hay
had rooms at the New Haven house for
commencement week. It is generally
supposed, however, that after going to
his room he went to the window for
air, and, sitting on the sill, he dozed
of, and, overbalancing, fell to the pave
ment below. a fall of fully 60 feet. The
Mr.. Hay was appointed consul to
Pretoria to succeed Consul Macrum
December 4, 1899. 1t was charged that
Macrum had shown undue favors to
the Beers. AS the representative of
the United States Consul Hay had
charge of the interests of British sub
jects in the Transvaal and was several
times the medium of communication
between the contending forces.

REPORTS ARE CHEERING.
Leading Commercial Agencies Tell
of Increased Improvement in
the Business Situation.

New York, June CIR. G. Dun & Co.'S
Weekly Review OF Trade says: "Increas-
ing distribution OF merchandise, particu-
larry in the territory beyond the Ohio river, 4.
including the far northwest, is u feature
of the general business situation, and tells
OF widespread prosperity and confidence.
The railroads are carrying more goods that
may be clasSeG as luXurieS than before.
and in spite OF Wall streets slightly higher
money market. there is no fear on this
score in any line OF legitimate trade Crop
news continues good. and there is less
trouble from disagreements with labor.
Less interruption through labor contro-
versies at machine shops makes the iron
and steel industry more fully employed
than In recent weeks. and for another week
there is assurance OF vigorous activity at
mills and furnaces. In many instances
promised deliveries cannot be made before
July ]. and urgent business that is now
offered cannot be undertaken. II Is also
noticed that much foreign business Is
available, but manufacturers refuse to
make bids. On the other hand. 1t is stated
that quiet conditions will soon be the rule,
and fires will go out for the customary
summer overhaulirg. This may be the
case at few plants. although the require
ments of railroads and other known needs
are such as to render any general suspen
sion very improbable.
Failures for the week numbered 1913
in the United States, against 179 last year.
and IA In Canada, against Is last year"
Bradstreet's says: The situation Is one
OF sustained strength In some lines, and
of further Improvement In others. The
crop situation, of course, remains the main
subject of interest and this on the whole Is
good one, although too much rain In the
South Atlantic states and too little in Tex
as. with the lack of warm weather for
corn in the northwest. have constituted ex-
cept!ons to otherwise favorable advlces.
Perhaps the most significant feature noted
for some time past is that presented this
week In regard To the prices of Il number
OF leading commodities. Cotton goods,
notably print cloths. blcachcd goods and
number of standard products have been
advanced this week. and an Increase in tho
price of raw materia! is a s much due to the
better trade adviccs at home and abroad
as to crop damage reports from the south.
Hides and leather. long threatening an ad-
vance. have at last succeeded in this re-
spect. and IN addition, corn and oats among
the cereals. lard among hog products.
cheese among dairy products, and coffee
and tin, are all higher on the week. the
only important reduction being in wheat.
due mainly to the liquidation of the July
option as much as TO continued good crop
adivices. European advlces favor the idea
that the continent of Europe will be a
heavy buyer the coming cereal year"
