NEW YORK, July u.-R. G. Dun ana
Companv,s Weekly Review of Trade to-
morrow will say:
Good news prcdominates, although I'M
favorable weather proved drawback
a. many points, and new labor disputes
arose There is less than the customar-
midsummer idleness in manufacturing
industries despite the scarcity Of fuel.
Commodity prices are fully maintained.
Railway earnings thus far available for
June average 90 per cent. larger than
last years. and POO per cent. above those
of 1900.
Statistics of pig iron production on
July 1st are somewhat surprising. Ac-
ccrding to the Iron Age, the weekly
output was at a new high record of 352, $50
tons, notwithstanding the shortage Of
fuel In steel the situation is mixed,
heavy and light falling behind orders,
while q number of rod, wire and nail
mills at Pittsburg have shut down for
the usual vacation Structural steel and
railway supplies are urgently sought. so
much new business being placed that &C
tivity is assured we'll into 1903.
New England shops are more fully en-
ga ged than at any previous time this
year. Union leather is firm, but domes-
tic buyers are taking but little hemlock,
the best inquiry being for export. Up
per leather is active at the West. a
large purchase of packer hides has
strengthened the tone at Chicago, while
Texas hides arrive moro freely.
MILLS WE'LL OCCUPIED.
Export orders for cotton goods are still
disappointing. and the home demand is
quiet, yet mills are we'll occupied. AT
the South there is a disposition to delay
spinning until the new crop begins to
move and this tendency is reported in
New England. In wooens the feature
is the recorder business in heavy weights,
quick delivery being desired
Corn has again been the prominent
feature of the markets for domestic sta
pies. Spectators at the West secured
control Of the six million bushels in the
visible supply, and compelled the short
interests to cover contracts at disas-
t1ously high prices. Farmers reserves
are evidently insignificant, Off attractive

WASHINGTON. July 1.-THE negotia-
tons now in progress at the Vatican re-
specting the Philippine f,'iars and their
lands. will not fail. OF that adninistra-
lion officials here feel certain.
Ii was realized at the beginning when
Governor Taft's instructions were franz
ed. that they represented the extreme OF
our claims and that they did not preclude
the idea OF reasonable compromise by
mutual concessions. The negotiations are
proceeding in this spirit. The United
States government Will not secure every
thing ii desired. because, even II the Pope
We're disposed TO coucede these things.
the negotiations have developed the fact
THAI although his power IS theoretically
unlimited. in actuality the internal poll
tics of the Vatican impose conditions
even upon the chief preate of the church
which must be observed.
Therefore the Immediate withdrawal of
the Spanish friars from the Philippines
is not now expected. but il is believed
that the result desired can be accomplish
cd by an arrangement for the Substitu-
ton OF friars of other nationality. and
the principal issue at present is as 10
the time when this change NAV be
brought about.

Hints to the Leader

Pray earnestly, beforehand, that this
meeting may be the means Of arousing
a deeper interest in missions. In the
meeting do all you can TO have d good
meeting Probably the reason why
some people think missionary meetings
tedious is because there is not SO much
opportunity given for general participa-
ton as at other meetings Give a bright
but brief, account Of the founding Of
the missionary work Of your denomina-
ton, the organization Of its boards. and
the work II has accomplished. Pray for
the officers Of your boards by name:
pray for your mission stations. and for
the missionaries. Then, in order that
any good resolutions may not melt
away, present some great missionary
need, and if possible make the meetings
accomplish some practical good by IN
deTtaking some work, sch as adopting
your own missionary or taking a definite
share in some mission station
