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

New York, June 6.-Bradstreets 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
year ago. Iron and steel, bituminOus
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 classabe as fair Prices Of
staples show a general sagging ten
dency, part of which is seasonal.
Briefly summed up, the situation gener-
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
a 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 a quiet season
and are able to withstand a period of di-
minished sales and tardy payments
This 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 OF
wages, and several strikes have added
| to the army of unemployed

May Move the Town.

Within short time the residents of
Sparta may have to move their village
as it is over one of the largest bodies OF
iron ore on the range. Underlying the
entire town rich deposits of mineral
have been discovered and it is simply a
question of short time when the site
of what is now Sparta will be large
mine.
The United States Steel corporation
is said to have control of most of the
property in which ore has been found,
and, while it is not known how soon
operations will begin, it is understood
that other shafts will be sunk within a
short time. One drill is being sunk in
the middle of the street of the town
and about fifteen others at intervals OF
about 100 feet are being operated. The
deposits shown by these means have
always been of the highest grade and
in almost unlimited quantities

emit time, though it would be unwise to
attempt to forecast whether the place
will fall by storm, by the slow process
of siege, or by famine. Oyama's troops
were landed at the mouth of the Hua-
yuan river, near to Pitszewo, in the vi
cinity of which place the Japanese
have landed recently. The movements
of 1894 may be taken to indicate those
of the present time. The earlier dis
embarkation commenced on October "a
and Port Arthur was captured on No
vember Fl. The troops moved west
through the peninsula, and on Novem-
Der the walled town of Kinchou was
captured near the narrowest part Of
the isthmus, and the occupation of Ia
lienwan followed on the next day. 1t
is not permissible to doubt that the
Japanese are now engaged in like
movements.
From the first landing up to the eve
of the attack, the assailants had been
four weeks in making their prepare
tons. Whether the same rapidity eau
characterize the present operations re-
mains to be SEEN Port Arthur then
was strong, but now it is far more for
midable, and it is fair to assume that
there will be a resolute defence. 1t is
possible, therefore, that the japanese
may think it wiser to await the time
when the place may fall without a
blow. JOHN LEYLAND.

aggregate Russian empire there are
over 100000 Jews.
Though now making advance in in.
dustrial matters, Russia is distinctly
an agricultural nation, 80 per cent. OF
all her people are peasants. The peas
ant rents from the landlord, as in Ire
land; the landlord. generally an absen'
tee, squandering his wealth abroad
and letting the cultivation of the land
rest with the peasant. Russia is very
large and very poor, which facts par
TALLY explains the lack of education
among the masses. The number OF
those that cannot read and write is
shamefully high, Is per cent, and
while there exists among the better
classes realization that the nation is
kept from progress by the ignorance
of the muzhik, yet the fear that the lat
ter may prove too strong If allowed
an education has caused the ruling
conservatives to keep the school book
from him.
Though the Russian peasant of to-day
Is degraded and sQualid, his condition is
not nearly so low as it was back in the
DAYS of serfdom The rural population OF
Russia by the eighteenth century was
grouped in one common class, the serfs,
regarded as the property of the landed
proprietor of the state, and class OF
abuses which repeatedly called for re-
forms. About the middle OF the last CEN
tury. under Alexander H., a powerful
liberal reaction was inaugurated. The
year 1861 was marked by the sup
preston of serfdom; in 1864 refor-
nations were made In the courts
of justice and the jury system; in
1865 steps were taken towards provln-
cial self-government. These reforms
stirred, the apparently Indifferent, fatal
istic Russian, and there sprang up IN the
country a band of enthusiastic youth
fred with the desire to aid the submerged
majority. Russia's autocracy saw only
cause for fear in the movement and fool
ishly and cruelty set to work to stamp
out the spirit of brotherhood that was
abroad The would-be refOrmers were
arrested, put in prisons, sentenced De-
| hind closed doors to Siberian exile. Inc
nihilists now changed their tactics
