EXPORT TRADE
CONTINUES GOOD
Note Moderate Improvement
During the Present Week
in Commercial Conditions
PAYMENTS MORE PROMPT
Crop Prospects in General
Are Favorable, Although
Corn Is Very Much Behind

NEW YORK, June 16.--Bradstreet,s to-
morrow will say: Distributive trade and
crop developments, while still on an ir-
regular basis. hold and have perhaps add
ed to the Improvement manifested last
week, for which warmer weather is re-
sponsible. Confidence in the future still
continues The export trade Is good
Railway earnings are large, building is
active and steel mills engaged in the
heavier forms of finished material will
nots close down this summer. The labor
situation. though disturbed somewhat, is
on the whole pleasant one. Crop pros
poets in general continue favorable, al
though corn conditions are spotted and
the plant Is very much behind.
Prices of all products still seem to
favor agricultural interests. Flour mills
are inactive, waiting receipts of new
crop wheat.
Wheat Qncluding four) exports for the
week ending June 10 are 6SS,0l7 bushels.
against 1.476.o $40 last week and 2.044,421 this
week last year. From July to date the
exports are so, ,2s7 bushels, against 49,
4s2, ,712 last year and 1856, .436 in 1903.
Business failures in the United States
for the week ending June Is number III.
against 194. last week. 1S1 In the like week
in 1904 and 165 in 1903. Canadian failures
for the week number "a, against 2o last
week and is in this week year ago.
K. &. Dun q Co.. weekly review OF
trade will say: Moderate Improvement is
noted in commercial conditions, although
progress is along conservative lines and
there is no evidence of speculative ex-
cesses. Mercantile payments are more
prompt the brighter crop outlook having
a salutary effect on all commercial opera
tions. Railway earnings thus far avail
able for June average 81 per cent higher
than last years, and foreign commerce
at this port for the last week shows gains
of 81, 1895, S12 In exports and 81, ,636,S9S in i'm
ports In every department of business
the past week makes a strikingiy favor-
able comparison with the corresponding
week of 1904, when prices were tending
downward and there was much complaint
of the early summer dullness, yet there
is no indication at the present time OF the
unreasonable enthusiasm that threatens
stability through reckless purchases In
excess of wholesome consumptive re-
uuirements. Irregularity continues in the
hide market Many divisions are nom
inal. and foreign dry hides have declined
another fraction, making a loss of full
cent from the recent top point
Failures this week numbered 22s In the
United States, against 257 last year, and
a5 in Canada. compared with l6 year
ago.

at Lombard street wharf Following so
close On the heels Of the City OF Sydney,
the Newport brought little cargo. but had
forty passengers.
According to the Newport's officers the
Panama Railroad is very much over
worked at present An enormous
amount OF freight is being received from
New York at Colon for the use of the
constructors OF the canal This freight is
given preference over through merchan-
disc. and as result shipments from New
York TO ports on the west coast are get
ting through very slowly.
The Newport called at Salina Cruz
where she took on board about twenty
people who had been lured there by the
get rich quick" literature Of the Pan

ICre seek investments nearer home.

While the Newport was at Panama a
negro laborer was killed by the train.
The other negroes, who had come on the

mourning the tragic fate of their fellow
worker The train hands Joined In the
mournful JOY, and until the dusky toilers
had had their ill OF lamentation two
liners and the Panama Railroad were tied
Up IN idle waiting.
Two deaths marred the Newports out
ward voyage. Alexander Moody and w
J. Clay, both steerage passengers bound
from this port for New York, died at p.
n. on May Is. They not only died within
q few minutes of each other, but in each
case the cause of death was pneumonia.
