WEATHER CONDITIONS ARE GOOD
Normal Conditions Restored in Many

New York, May 14.--R. G. Dun &
day says:
Seasonable weather has restored
normal conditions in many branches
of retail trade, but the improvement
has not yet extended to wholesale job
bing or manufacturing departments,
except in special lines 1t is difficult
to nnd evidences of increased activity
in the leading industries and there
is mora idle machinery. Traffic con-
ditions are little changed, railway
earnings in the first week falling rs
per cent behind last year and the late
opening of lake navigation was fur
Their rearded by strike. While many
features of the business situation make
poor comparisons with last year, it is
worthy of note that few previous years
have made a better exhibit.
In the leading manufacturing indus
try scarcely any decline in prices &C.
CURED during the past week, but the
average has fallen considerably from
the best position of las. year, and con-
sumers are confident that further de-
lay will result in still more attractive
terms. This impression is largely due
to the recent disagreement among ore
producers, yet it is stated on very high
authority that provision has already
been made for most of the years re-
quirements. In spite of the large in
crease thus far this year in active ca
pacity, furnace stocks have decreased
from $4,000 tons on January /, to 444.-
ESQ on May l.
Western hide markets are firm and
fairly active, recent gains being fully
maintained and in many cases holders
insist on further advances. Receipts
of foreign dry hides have increased
without weakening the one or reduc-
ing the demand.
Commercial failures this week in the
United States are 236, against 2o7 last
week, 202 the previous week and 1856
the corresponding week last year. Fail
ures in Canada number % against q

The Improvement in the market fol
this week has been purely result Of
continued moderate receipts and this
demand Is not considered In shape te

market, altho there has been some Inn
provement in the foreign demand fol
American cattle.
The most marked improvement ir
the market of the week has been or
light and handy weight steers of good
quality, these have made an advance
of fully Is TO 20 cents from low time
last week, while the big weight fat
steers of fair to good quality are MOI
more than strong to 10 cents higher
Common to fair light to medium weight
steers are around 10 cents higher.
There have been but few loads OF
strictly prime strong weight beeves
here, but the proportion of fair to good
beeves weighing above 1850 lbs has
been rather large and these big cattle
are coming at time of year when big,
thick cuts OF beef are unpopular with
the consuming trade hence, 1t is that
they do not get us much improvement
In the market as do the lighter weights
of fair to good quality.
Hogs.
Active at firm prices, with light sup
plies selling a shade lower than
week ago. Receipts this week show
decided falling off from those of recent
weeks and former years, but the abb
sence of large eastern shipping de-
rnand enables the local packers to hole
down prices.
The market for the week has not
been subjected to any wide fiuctua-
lions but the average of prices for the
week has been around 500 cents low
err than the closing market of last week
and on the little strength OF yesterday
the current prices are a shade lower
than a week ago.
Sheep.

sharp decline in prices recently
brought about a better market, there
being an active general demand. To-
days small offerings We're taken at UNI

A larger proportion of the arrivals
yesterday consisted of spring lambs

The June Run of Hogs.

| Chicago, May 1.-THE Livestock
World says: Diversity OF opinion is
rampant in stock yard circles regard
| ing the size of the post-corn- planting
time run on hogs. In paclingtoWn
circles confidence is felt that heavy
run of weighty stock viii materialize
the somewhat logical contention, being
that covers, expectant that prolonga-
ton of the Asiatic war would elevate
prices have been buflish and held hogs
in feed lots. Last year it will be re-
membered porcine stock was held back
with the result that the market was
fairly inundated with unpopu ar heavy
weights during the dog days.
1t is this that gives cue &c the man
who takes issue with packingtoWn
seeys. He is of the opinion that, prof
fling by last years experience. the hog
grower unloaded prior to corn planting
time and that the June run will in con-
sequence prove Disappointing to pack
ingtown. 1t SINNERS down to whether
the country has been bullish or bearish.
If there is to be a big supply of heavy
hogs on the market next month packers
will undoubtedly avail themselves of
the opportunity TO put prices lower.
Tho Horse Market.
Trade has held up we'll this week,
notwi thstanding the existence of two
auctions daily. In fact. thee is but
little difference in market conditions
from last week. Inferior qualities sold
poorly enough last week, but they seem
even worse now.
Co. John S. Cooper, In talking of
m a rlset comb tious said:
II do not think the price quite as
strong on al grades as last week. All
horses with extra quality are selling
high and will continue to for some
time to come, but they are costing
much in the country. Eastern buyers
are complaining that they are too hlgh
here. and claim they cannot make any
money The farmer seems to be the
only one that is a sure winner. Coun-
try buyers should look we'll to quaiNy
and vaoid inferior stock. Get quality,
thin or fat. and 1t will sell for fair
nrice as there seems to be plenty OF
BUYERS to keep the market well cleaned
,yp. Horses that weigh here l2o0 IDS
up and drivers with quality are the
most sought for. but a driver must be
well broke to bring fair price a

A CHICAGO MURDER
Body Weighted Down With Scrap Of
Iron Found In the illinois & Mieh''
gan Canal. -.

Chicago Nav 14.-Weighted down by
$50 pounds of boiler pipe, the sAui'
crushed. a gag in the mouth, and sew
e~a, severe wounds. the body OF man
WAS taken from the Illinois & Michigan
canal Mt Lawndale avenue yesterday
,ftarnoon That murder had been COM
mitted was plain to the police at the
first glance, but to the identity of the
victim or his murderers they have no
clew.
Every article which might have aid
ed in tracing the victim had been
stripped from the body. Outer gar
ments, shoes, stockings ard even the
underwear We're missing. and the
sweater and overalls in which the body
was clad had no name of maker or
owner. Apparently the body had been
in the water during four months.
Malta Theory Is Suggested.
1t is the theory of the police that the
man was a foreigner ard was MUIR
dered some distance from the place
where the body was found and carried
there in a wagon. 1t also is suggested
that he was the victim of. the Malta.
The man apparently was 80 years
old. five feet ten inches TALL dark hair
and mustache, and probably was an
Italian. There was a knife wound on
the right leg above the knee and an
other behind the right e;lr. The skull
had been crushed by some heavy in
strument. Three pieces of galvanized
pipe, such as is used by steamfitters,
were fastened to the victims right arm.
The left shoulder was broken as If
from a blow aimed at his head which
he had lodged
j. b. Walsh, 2463 West Thirty-e eighth
street, with Ernest Cower, 1888 Thirty
eighth street. and Michael Clarissey,
1916 West Thirty-s sixth place, discov-
cred the body while walking on the
bank of the canal near the Kedzie av
enue bridge. Policeman Fred Rung
caused it to be removed to the county
morgue.
On Scene of Previous Murder.
The body must have been thrown
into the canal at the point where it
was found, as there is no current
which would carry it away. 1t was at
this same spot that the body of Mrs.
Mary Danelosky was found last June
by hunters The woman had been muir
dered, the police say, by her nephew
and robbed of $50 in her dwelling at
"a West Eighteenth place. The man
fed to Austria, where ne now is.
Every available detective was sent
out by Inspector LAWN yesterday to
clear up the mystery At Lawndale
avenue and all along the banks of the
canal the country is sparsely settled.
1t is mostly prairie.

TALES OF CITIES.

The Railway Exchange building just
completed in Chicago has office rooms
for 5000 persons.
Detroit is now called the Pill City.
1t Is said that 70 per cent of the pill
product of the United States is manu-
featured In that city.
Boston is called the City of Notions,
from the amount Of Yankee notions
manufactured there. The city was
first called the Hub Of the Universe by
Oliver Wendell Holmes.
The most crowded spot on the globe
at certain hours of the day is the
neighborhood Of City Hall park in
New York The Brooklyn bridge ends
there, as well as one of the elevated
roads, the subway and many lines Of

says:

tending in some lines ITO recorders from
jobbers Dry goods. shoes and gro
ceries show relatively greatest activ-
ity. Rather more Is doing In fall
goods. General industry has remained
rather quiet, aotably so In cotton
wooden and shoe manufacturing. The
iron trade is quiet as whole. with
prices easier An immense area OF fall
sown wheat has had to be abandoned
but this will probably go into other
crops. Prices show gradual drifting
downwards from the high levels OF the
early spring.
