PROVE A DRAWBACK.
Labor Troubles Seriously Affect Bust
ness-In Other Features Trade
Situation Improved.

New York, Aug. 6.-R. G. Dun & Co.'s
Weekly Review of Trade says: Labor
controversies are the most serious draw
backs to recovery in business, most
other important factors tending toward
Improvement. Despite some reduction
in the yield of wheat. crop prospects are
most encouraging, and the loss in guam
tity of wheat promises to be fully Offset
by higher prices, so that the agricultural
communities will be in position to pur-
chase commodities freely. Railway
earnings in July we're only "a per cent.
smaller than a year previous, and at
many cities there is evidence of return
ing confidence, with a little improve
ment in mercantile collections. But sew
eral strikes in progress and others under
consideration initiate against a re-
sumption of normal conditions in trade
and manufacture.
Failures this week in the United States
are 230, against 220 last week, 231 the
preceding week and 178 the correspond
ing week last year. Failures in Canada
number 1s, against Is last week, 20 the
preceding week and 10 last year,

crop advices, are optimistic. The iron

RIGHTS OF SHIPPERS.
Summary Of Declaration by Secretary
Hay Regarding Neutral Ma
lions During War.

Washington, Aug. 9.-"The recogni-
ton in principle of the treatment of
coal and other fuel and raw cotton as
absolutely contraband of war might
ultimately lead to total inhibition of
the sale by neutrals to the people of
belligerent states of all articles which
could be finally converted to military
uses. Such an extension of the prin-
ciple, by treating coal and other fuel
and raw cotton as absolutely contra
band of war, simply beouse they are
shipped by neutral to a non-block-
AIDED port of belligerent, would not
appear to be in accord with the rea-
sonab1e and lawful rights of a neutral
commerce"
This is summary of declaration
by Secretary Hay on the right of neu-
trail nations during war. 1t was en-
bodied in circular to American am
bassadors in Europe which was issued
from the state department June 10
last, but for some reason was withheld
from the public, although certain ship
pers who inquired at the department
after their rights were supplied with
copies. The circular is based on a
declaration by the Russian govern
ment that coal, naphtha, alcohol and
other fuel have been declared contra
band.

said, but were anxious to go.

YOUIHF VI VACCINATIONS
AND TAINTED WATER
CAUSED JOLLY TIME

COLUMBUS, Jan. 3d. Especial. )--Dis,
titled water from unsteamed whisky bar
rels with an ample amount of youthful
fancy created turmoil in the public
schools yesterday afternoon. Owing TO
the typhoid epidemic, the board of edllca.
ton commenced yesterday to provide dis
titled water for the pupils The con
tract for the distilled water was hurry
order. To fill it promptly the CRYSTAL
Ice company had to take all whisky bar
rels it could gather up at the saloons of
the city As result. most Of the barrels
secured had never been steamed since the
whisky had been empted. In consequence
there was Just the faintest taste of
whisky about the water. This was
enough for numerous boys with healthy
imaginations and desire to be ''like big
men. They got very "jolly" on the
teachers hands.
The matter came to the attention Of
Mrs Clark, state president Of the
Women's Christian Temperance union,
and she sent the alarm to the local union
members. They gave the school author
titles all kinds Of seedlings.

RUSSIA WANTS To GUT
KOREA UP WITH JAPAN

ST. PETERSBURG, Jan. 30-The
Novoe Nremya says that it is impossible
for Russia to enter into an understand
ing with Japan concerning Manchuria,
but regarding Korea Russia is willing
to give Japan full rights south of the 39th
parallel if Russia will be permitted to
control all north of that. Japan must,
however, agree not to fortify any part of
Korea. This is to be the maximum
of Russia's concession to Japan.
As the Novoe Vremya is frequently in
spired officially, it is believed that this
publication foreshadow's Russia's reply.
WASHINGTON, ID. c., Jan. 3O.-The

dispatch from Seoul today:

to desire the naturalization of Korea The
Korean emperor is confident that the

SEATTLE, Jan. 3O.-Chief Engineer
DE Launay attempted to show at the IN
quiry yesterday afternoon that the rud-
der of the Clallam was defective and was
partly responsible for the loss OF the
ship. 1t did not appear, however, that
such was the case
One of the important witnesses was
Captain Carter, formerly master of the
vessel. He took the stand, stating that
he had until recently been master OF
the Clallam. He said it had been re-
ported to him that there was a defective
headlight forward in the vessel and also
one abreast of the engine room, and that
he had ordered canvas placed over these
ports. While the Clallam did not answer
as quickly as she should. he did not
think there was anything wrong with
her rudder. The stock of the rudder was
little slack in the port, but not on the
main deck. The witness said he creased
the rudder, but not because the con-
trivance fit tightly. II have never seen
a rudder," the captain observed, that
did not touch more in one place than in
another"
Captain Carter explained that the relief
chains were attached to the rudder blade.
He said:
81 fastened the chains and they were
hauled up to the passenger deck and
made fast there and ready to be at
tached to the tackles in case they were
needed. The chains were put on in case
anything happened to the rudder or steer
ing gear. They were not put up there
to hold the rudder in case it should
drop over. They were not heavy enough
for that"
Explaining the working Of the rudder
Captain Carter declared that he never felt
any uneasiness concerning it save when
going out Of the harbor. The vessel at
times, came around slowly and he did not
consider her rudder as good as the one
she had when first in commission. "But
the ship" the witness continued, "never
