FIRE AT ARIZONA MINE.
Hosting Plant Is Burned Probably
Causing Death Of Three
Miners.

Prescott, Ariz. June Fire at the
blackberry mine, Big Bug district, has
destroyed the hosting plant and re-
suited in the probable death of three
miners. The hoist house was located
directly over the shaft and when the
fire occurred the men were at work in
the mine and were completely cut of
by the fire. Help was summoned from
McCabe and Mayer and the fire extin-
guished. One man in his effort to go
down into the shaft fell 200 feet and
is supposed to be dead. AS no com.
munication could be had with the two
miners they are also supposed to be
dead. Rescuers have been unable to
get into the shaft ON account of the
deadly fumes, but a hose has been sent
down through which air is being
forced.

MONTH WAS DISAPPOINTING
TRADE CONDITIONS IN MAY NOT
WHOLLY SATISFACTORY.
Quiet in Most Lines Is Expected
Pending Prospects for
Growing Crops.

New York, June 4.-Bradstreet' says:
THE volume of May business both at
wholesale and retail was disappointing,
confirmation of this being found in de-
creases in bank clearings and in rail-
way earnings from year ago, while
failures were more numerous, though
less costly than in recent preceding
months, while showing increases on a
year ago. Iron and steel. bituminous
coal and cotton manufacturing are
notably quiet for this season Of the
year. There are, however, some signs
underlying confidence in future trade.
These consist of reports OF improved
inquiry for fall goods at some western,
southern and eastern points, rather
better tone In the shoe and leather in
dustry at the east, active buying at
full prices OF the new western wool clip,
and fairly satisfactory reports from the
wooden industry, notably that part
dealing with the clothing trade. Col
lections partake of trade irregularity,
but are still classable as fair. Prices Of
staples show a general sagging ten
Briefly summed up, the situation Eener-
ally centers upon the probable outturn
OF the growing crops, and until this mat
ter Is settled most authorities look for
comparative quiet in most lines. Among
the industries iron and steel and BIZ
luminous coal note specially marked
depression. Furnaces are going out of
blast, curtailment is making Roadway,
and there is disposition on the part Of
sellers to resist further price reduc-
tons.
r. G. Dun & Co.'s Weekly Review of
Trade says: Interruptions of industrial
progress by the holiday. labor conflicts
and inclement weather again produced
somewhat unsatisfactory trade situa-
ton. Yet the money market is easy
and accommodation readily obtained in
legitimate business channels. Liabili-
ties OF mercantile failures are compare
lively small, indicating that most con-
Germs have prepared for quiet season
and are able to withstand period of d.
minished sales and tardy payments
Ihls conservative attitude is the funda-
mentally strong feature of the situation,
and when business revives there will be
no pressure to dispose of heavy stocks
OF undesirable goods. More manufac-
turing plants have reduced hours or
wages, and several strikes have added
to the army Of unemployed.
Commercial failures this week In the
United States are 220, against 226 last
