STAGNANT WEEK IN LONDON.
Ir.minence of Peace Causes Decided
 Weekend Improvement.

London, June 11-Early in the week business on the stock exchange was extremely stagnant. There was so lit- tie doing that 1t was difficult to fol- low the tendency. Paris sold steadily, especially South African mines, the continued fall of which and the un- certainty respecting New York weighed all the departments down. Some peo- ple attributed the real cause of the depression to the scare in Paris re- gardlng Morocco, causing nervous holders to throw stocks upon the mar ket.
 Towards the week end there was generally a marked Improvement on the prospective imminence of peace, the realization of which 1t was recog- nized would give an enormous stimu- Jus to trade. It was pointed out that France can provide Russia with the required funds to rehabilitate herself and pay the indemnity, and that Ja- pan, lodging the latter in London Tor while, would supply the market with means for carrying on huge opera tions.
 Notwithstanding the latter improve ment operations were limited owing to the holidays and it being the eve of the settlement The American sec ton merely reflected the New York quotations, there being an indisposi- ton to operate in either direction in view of the financial outlook in Wall street The movements were merely II, ,avorable in the case of United States Steel.

CANADA USES MANY
 AMERICAN PRODUCTS
EXPORTS TO THE DOMINION DURING THE PRESENT FISCAL YEAR BIDS FAIR TO GO ABOVE $14o,ooo,ooo.

Washington, June (Special) )-Cana- das increasing consumption of products of the United States continues to be a notable feature of American commerce. Figures just compiled by the department of commerce and labor through it's bu- reau of statistics. show that exports from the United States to the Dominion of Canada grew from $5l, ,903,579 in the ten months ending with April 1897, to S104,- 155,S93 in the ten months ending with April. 1904, and to $l14,943, ,079 in the corre- spending period of 19Oo. The increase here noted is but continuation of the growth which, with trifling exceptions, has char acterized our trade with Canada since 1870. During the period from 1855 to 1866 q reciprocity treaty was in operation be- tween the United States and Canada; from 1867 to 1897 commerce between the two countries was unaffected by special trade arrangements; from April, 1897, to August, 1898, the United States was placed at slight disadvantage as compared with the United Kingdom. products from that country entering the Dominion of Canada being admitted at a reduction of l1'2 per CtHt. dS coh- pdA Su Nith tHV du- ties charged on importations from the United States. On August l, 1898, this re- duction in favor of the United Kingdom was increased to 20 per cent, and on July 1, 1900, was still further increased to 33 1-3 per cent.
 The popularity of American goods, how ever. in conjunction with the advantages of contiguity, has served to maintain and even increase the volume of exports from the United States to Canada, despite the varying conditions to which our trade with that country has been subjected. In the fiscal year 1855 the first year of reci- procitv with Canada, our exports to that country were S27,74l sos in value: in 1866, the closing year of the reciprocity period S24,S2 $50.
 In 1897, the year which inaIgurated the polcy by which Great Britain and cer- tain of her colonies were given the bene- fit of a special reduction in duties charged upon importations into Canada. our ex- ports to that country were s6i92S,S21, and each succeeding year has shown an in- crease, the total in 1904 having been $751; 274.346. while for the present fiscal year. should May and June equal the record made by April last. the total will be in excess of s14O,000,000.
 Meantime imports into the United States from Canada have also grown, though at a much slower pace. For the fiscal year 1855 the total value of imports was s15.- 11s. 2S9; in 1875, s27.s67 6i5: ir 1895. s36.574. s27; in 1904 s51, fo6265. and for the present year. estimating May and J. re upon the

 'It was agreed between us,' he said, that 1t would be better to make the in- this is the thing to do. As 1 understand 1t the results will be made public when the secretary completes the investiga- tion''
 The officials of the department, and among them Secretary Wilson, were at first inclined to minimize the importance of the Cheatham charges They explained the system that was used in the prepa- ration and publication of the cotton re7 ports, and contended that 1t was impos- sible for any officials to commit irregular tiles. The system was designed to pre- vent Irregularities of any kind, they said, and as no one in advance of the executive meetings, when the figures were totaled, knew what the results would be. Secre- tary Wilson expressed the opinion that the charges In the present instance prob ably were no more serious than the oth- CTS presented on previous occasions.
 When MT. Cheatham submitted his proof to Secretary Wilson that official at first expressed astonishment and then alarm. and instituted a searching investi- gation. As an incident of the inquiry 1t was deemed best that MT. Holmes should be suspended in order that the depart ment might not be open to charge of whitewash in the event that the Cheat ham charges proved to be unfounded.
