TRADE OUTLOOK BRIGHTER
Better Weather Proves StmuIant.
Dullness In Iron and Steel.


New York. May 2s.-According to the
weekly review Of r. G. Dun Il Co. re-
tail trade is stimulated by seasonable
weather. and the industrial outlook is
brighter on the whole.
Manufacturing lines report a slight
improvement at woolen mills and shoe
factories. and, while there is more idle
cotton machinery, il is worthy Of note
that the last Fall River statement
showed very little reduction in divi-
dends.
Railway earnings thus far reported
for May fall 81 per cent short of the
same time last year, but foreign com
merce at this port for the last week
shows gains Of S1,637 200 in exports
and $s49,545 in imports.
In the iron and steel industry pur-
chases are small and frequently ef-
fected at further concessions. although
it is difficult TO find definitely lower
quotations. except for pig iron. which
now averages from 50 to 81 ton
cheaper than at the corresponding date
last year.
Exports of cereals continue to make
poor comparisons with normal seasons.
Receipts of 1,3O3,9 bushels of wheat
fell short Of the 2,133 1876 bushels last
year, and exports were only 7T0,S25
bushels, flour included, against 3,S61,.
$50 in 1903. Corn arrivals at primary
markets amounted to 2,5T1,751 bush
els compared with 3,55S.375, and At
lantic coast exports were only III Asa
bushels against 1.O35,S03 year ago
Failures for the week numbered 226
in the United States against 206 last
year and II in Canada compared with
year ago.

HINTS TO PARKER.

Judge Parker, in one or all of hi.
speeches which he is to make this week
to the people of New York, New Jersey
and Connecticut, would do well TO ex.
plain TO his audiences, which will nc
doubt honor him with respectful hear
ing, how il is that, in the words of the
democratic platform, which he endorses
protection has been robbery.
He should explain TO his hearers, and
TO the far greater audience that will read
what he says TO the people in these in
dustrial states, that during the admins
trations Of the republican party, since
Abraham Lincoln was first elected 10 the
presidency to the present day, and un-
der the operation of the various tariffs,
from the Merrill tariff of 1861 to the
Dingley law under which we are now OPP
Grating the wages in this country, in the
aggregate and individually TO each
age-earner, have more than doubled,
while the cost Of the neeessaries of life,
and some Of the Injuries, is but one-half
what it was in 1861, when James Buch-
anan signed the first republican prOtec.
tive tariff law.
Judge Parker might also call attention

TO the fact that while in 1860 the mum.
Der OF persons employed in manufac-
turing in the United States was 1885,
900, in 1900 the persons so employed
numbered $4,000, or fourfold in
crease lie would do well TO call atten.
tion to the fact that these persons in
1850 received wages and salaries to the
amount of 1878. 100000, while in 1900 the
wages and salaries of those engaged in
manufacturing amounted TO S2,732,OOO,-
600. or AN increase of seven and one-half
times. This shows, then, that the wage'
earned by the American workingmaI
have almost doubled within forty years
Judge Parker might 90 a little furthc
and tell his audiences that, in 1850, III,
number of dcpositors in oT saving,
banks was 694.000. while in 1900 tn
number was 6,lO7 900. or an increase
Of nearly tenfold. while the number OF
people in the country had but little more
than doubled. lie might go even steI
further, and tell his audiences that whilt
in 1860 the deposits in the savings bank
amounted to Sl5o,OOO.OOO, yet in looi
the deposits in the savings banks Of thu
nitcd States exceeded 5000, 100000. o;
an increase amounting to twentyfotl
and these savings bank deposits, ]
might be added are mostly surplus earn
ings Of our workingmen in the factorie' |
and mills of the country.
Ii he will only give to his hearers thu
very few figures we have quoted above
and then add few sentences Of his owr
telling them how protection has been
robbery. the American voter will feel in
lebtcd TO him.
