New York, June 23.-"Trade at the
East is more quiet owing to the adj
yancing season, and me bad effect OF
prolonged labor controversies is be-
ing felt in certain lines. Reports from
the interior and the far West are more
encouraging, bountiful harvests being
expected, while the light stocks car
ried over from the previous season as
sure profitable prices. The best indi-
cation OF continued prosperity is the
fact that quotations DO not recede,
even in the lines where at present
there is only moderate degree of ac-
tivity. Railway earnings thus far re-
ported for June increased 3.9 per cent

ly Review of Trade thus sums up the
business situation, and continues:
Uncertainty regarding their abil-
ity to secure pig iron at reasonable
prices is making producers of steel
cautious in accepting contracts that
call for delivery at even remote dates.
Raw material is undoubtedly in light
supply, and the anthracite coal strike
has suspended work at number of
furnaces.
Dry Goods Market Quiet.
Quiet conditions prevail in east
ern dry goods and footwear markets.
A stronger silver market has revived
purchases for export to China, al
though, like the home trade, this is
still on moderate scale. Supplement.
tai buying of woolens is also limited.
1t is noteworthy that prices in all
textile lines are firmly held, indicating
confidence on the part of sellers.
Shoeshops in New England have more
orders, yet most factories only operate
part time. and some are entirely idle.
Leather is dull and foreign dry hides
weaker.
Lack of rain in the Southwest is
the only seriously unfavorable crop
indication of the week, while excep-
tionally encouraging reports are re-
ceived from most points. Domestic
grain makes good progress, but bad
news has been received from abroad.
and the outlook is favorable for large
exports.

year, and nineteen in Canada, against

quarantine could safely be raised IN ell

The federal quarantine can only be re-
moved by the order OF DR.. Salmon, head
OF the bureau OF animal Industry or the
national department OF agriculture, and
OF course the state board has nothing
whatever TO do with this. Tho immedi-
ate danger OF infection has been remov-
ed by the killing OF the infected cattle.
but until the barns and their contents
have been disinfected by DR.. Salmon's
corps OF assistants, and this corps will
make It's appearance as quickly as pos
sible, the federal quarantine will con-
tiunue In effect.
The farms, animals and products that
are now under quarantine are in Cumbsr-
land. Lincoln. North Providence and
Smlthfeld.
The cattle commissioners and their dep
uties and the state veterinarian will
continue the supervision OF the localities
where danger is believed to exist and all
preparation has been made to cope with
the disease should there be a fresh out

rescued at S o'clock this morning.
The ferryboat Is still fast in the ice
despite the efforts OF a tug that came
up from New York and which almost be-
came wedged In the ice itself. II was
decided to leave the Rockland in charge
OF the crew, and another effort will be
made To release her on Monday morning.
In order TO reach the impriso ned pas
sengers the rescuers shot life lines from
the Tarrytown ferry wharf TO the boat
A number OF the lines missed the mark,
but after half an hours harl worl. a
sailor managed TO catch one OF them and
made II fast to a capstan.
Then a shout OF JOY went up from the
passengers. There were eight men on
board and they slid down ladders to the
rough ice. close by the port side. and
catching hold OF the lifeline. walked
along the ice toward the Tarrytown
shore.
IL was a trip that required stout
heart, because frequently air holes and
broken fee were encountered. BY jumping
from cake TO cake and skipping open
spaces. the men managed to reach Tar
rytown I'm safety.
The crew of the ferrybost dug away
the Ice with axes and picks so that a
dingy could he lowered, and I'm this the
two women passengers were landed after
much persuasion. An open course was cut
for some distance until n firm track OF
ice was found and then the women walk
ell 10 the ferry pier.
They are Miss Anna Bunsenmeyer. the
ls-yesr-old daughter or william Bunsen-
meyer OF Elmsford, and Miss Ellen
White, IL years OF age. OF South Nyack.
During all the excitement, even when the
boat seemed about 20 sink. they were
very cool and offered TO aid the crew In
any way they could.
Captain Lyons slrned over the pilot
