OF TRADE
Wall Street No Longer a Reliable
Barometer.
CROP SITUATION Is GOOD.
Many Branches Of Manufacture
working Fun Force Railway
Earnings Increase--Temporar
Losses Due 10 Floods.

New York, Oct. 1T.-R. G. Dun s
Co.'s weekly review, OF trade says:
While some contraction in trade and
industry has undoubtedly taken place
it is not In proportion to the reduction
Of 20 per cent in pig iron output or the
reaction in prices of securities, at
though in normal years these have usu,
ally proved fairly reliable barometers.
From the top point last year the sixty
leading railway shares have fallen al
most third in market value, and the
Industrial stocks have lost more than
that percentage, the leading metal prop
critics touching new low records this
week. Many branches Of manufacture
however, are working full force, with
large orders still untitled. while the
latest returns Of the crops are most
encouraging.
Labor a Disturbing Element.
Finance and labor are the disturbing
elements this year, neutralized very
largely by favorable commercial and
agricultural conditions The net result
IS q fairly well maintained volume of
trade, offset by conservatism in carry
ing out protected new undertakings and
proposed extensions of facilities. Tenn.
porary losses to business were caused
BIZ the recent foods ct the east. and
factories were rendered idle while re-
pairs were made. Prices of conmodi.
ties declined slightly during the month
of September, Dun's index number on
Oct. / being s97sTs against $os.541 o
month previous, but in the last two
weeks some recovery has occurred.
Foreign commerce expands, the Sep
teInber return comparing most favor
ably with preceding months, and fol
the last week at this city exports were
81, 200, PTS larger than d year ago, while
imports rose slightly. Railway earn
ings thus far available for October are
CD per cent larger than last year and
12.T per cent above 1901. Bank ex
changes at New York for the weeh
were 36.S per cent less than in 1902
largely because Of reduced speculation
and lower prices, while at other lead
ing cities there was d loss Of # pc
cent

M Jan. 1s.-Germanys action in
deliberately bombarding the
~ San Carlos fort at Maracaibo.
Venezuela, is condemned
unanimously by Government officials
here, although there is a reticence in the
comment pending the receipt of official
advices
The Panther was repuIsed and sent
limping away. which Is a source of sat-
isfaction. Germany is receiving little
sympathy for her defeat in this appar-
emily unwarranted aggression.
Secretary Hay early this morning went
to the White House. where he informed
the bombardment Of the fort at Mara
caibo, which had been received at the
State Department. ~@These have not been
made public. They discussed this latest
and startling development Of the Venezu-
elan situation. Hay also conferred with
Secretary Moody at the Navy Depart
ment. While 1t is said the Venezuelan
question was not responsible for the con-
ference. the situation was discussed
DEWEY MAY BE NEEDED.
The Venezuelan question Is subject OF
most serious consideration by officials
of the Navy Department. where 1t has
long been realized that Germany wa5
the country from which the United
States has most to fear. Since the ma
neuvers closed it has been learned that
the situation just before the institution
of the blockade was so serious that Ad-
miral Dewey was advised Of the crisis
that he might be in readiness for any
thing No orders to warships have been
issued as a result of this last phase OF
the Venezuelan situation. but the United
States naval force in Porto Rican wat
ers is close enough for any emergency.
The incident is regarded as strong evil
dence that Germany preferred a COM
plication and that she timed the bonn
bardment to have the most detrimental
effect on the success Of the conference
which Minister Bowen, on behalf OF
Venezuela. is coming to Washington TO
arrange with representatives of the pow
ers. simultaneously it is announced
from Berlin, whence orders for the bonn
\ hardment came, that Baron Speck van
sternberg had postponed his sailing.
which was set for January 20. This re-
moves any possibility Of a conferences
before February 1.
THE bombardment convinces many off,
