rRADEsMAN's WEEKLY REVIEW.
Of New Industries and Industrial De-
 VeIOpment In the SOuth.


 Chattanooga. Tenn, May 27.-The Tradesman's Review of new industries established in the Southern States for the week ending today is herewith pre- sented, showing the new concerns that have embarked upon the sea of trade. and their apportionment to the several States In spite of the fact that the summer season approaches, usually in- dieative of a cessation of strenuous ac- tivities, the list is quite lengthy one, and many of the miscellaneous new in- dustries are not listed. The import ance of those given in the list may be appreciated by glance at the amount of capitalization, running from S3OO,- 900 to smaller figures. large propor- tion being over the $100.0O0 mark. A striking feature of the list is the va- rIety of new industries and their pecu- liar adaptation to the localities from which they are reported. Oil, lumber, coal and iron come fin for large part of the fresh development, and num- Der of notably important investment companies are in the list.

Protests Rate of EXCHANGE.

Mexico City, Special.-Precautiors
have been taken by the government
and the large banks to prevent sharp
rise in exchange as the result of the
speculative movement, believed to have
been planned to take place just as thc
new monetary system goes into effec;.
That something of the sort would be
attempted, was foreseen some months
ago. 1t is said that there has been
extensive buying of exchange at the
present low rate in the hope OF sharp
advance. One of the largest banks mas
refused to sell exchange to brokers ana
private bankers. and has merely met
the demands of commercial houses.
1t is the purpose Of the government TO
make the transition to the new syS-
tenn as early as possible.

Leans to Russia.

st. Petersburg, BY Cable.-Emperor
Williams speech at Tangier and pros.
pective developments therefrom en-
gross the attention Of the Russian
newspapers almost to the exclusion Of
peace discussion. Her treaty relations
with France and the friendly attitude
of Germany during the war place Rus
sian in an awkward position. Never
theless, the difficulties Of floating fur
ther loans in France and the absence
Of assistance on which, until recently,
Russia at least had vaguely counted,
incline the scales somewhat in favor
Of the western neighbor, whose benev-
olent neutrality and frontier pledge
enabledeRussia to place in the field a
Manchurian army so well supplied
with artillery.
"Expectedly," The Russo says, "a
grouping Of powers in Western Eu-
rope has begun, and perhaps we are
on the eve Of great developments in
international events"
The Noyoe Vremya sees in the Ger
man Emperor's supposed pleasure
trips to Jerusalem, Constantinople.
and Tangier a fixed plan to uphold
Turkey in Morocco and create Mus
sulman peril" which Is Germany's
answer to Great Britain's yellow per-
H." The paper expresses the belief
that it will result in Strengthening the
bond between Great Britain and
France, the embitterment Of the feel
ing between France and Germany,
and increased ornaments, but there is
no possibility Of war since Berlin fully
comprehends the madness Of conflict
with Great Britain and France allied.

; PEACE REPORTS QUESTIONED

Japanese Minister to Fra nee and For.
eisn Minister Del casse Agree That
No Peace Negotiations or PreIimi-
naries Are in Progress, and Declare
That Alleged Conferences Between
the Two Never Took Place.
Paris. BY Cable.-Whatever hopeful
ness the peace situation may have
had some days ago. the prospect has
now completely changed, and there is
every prospect that the war will drag
on again. Consequently. dispatches
appearing in America saying that For
eign Minister Del Casse and DR.. Nor.
tono, the Japanese minister to France,
have been comforting at the formers
house relative Of peace, are inaccu-
rate. The foregoing view Of the situa-
tion is taken by the parties immediate
ly concerned, and it is asserted with
the authority Of the foreign Office and
the Japanese legation. In view Of the
continued reports that there were indi-
cations that Minister Del Casse and
DR.. Mortono were taking an active
part in the negotiations, correspond.
ent called at the japanese legation to-
day and requested DR.. Mortono to fur
nish decisive statement which would
put at rest all misunderstanding. Ac-
cordingly, the minister gave the fol.
lowing categorical statement, which
was taken in writing and may be ac-
cepted as authoritatively clearing the
situation:
Il tell you explicitly that there are
no peace negotiations or preliminaries
for initiating peace negotiations at
this time so far as I am aware, and
believe my information to be COM
piete. am not desirous of discussing
the general question Of peace; for, ow-
ing to the complete absence Of negoti.
ations or Dreliminaries towards nego-
tiations. that question can only be
academic and without practical bear.
ing.
THE statements that have confer
red with M. Del Casse at his residence
are false and are calculated to confuse
a situation which is perfectly plain.
There is no representative of Japan
authorized at this time to discuss
peace or foreshadowing in the slight
est what conditions the Japanese gov
ernment might consider If the nego-
tiations assumed a practical stage.
On the contrary, Japan is now en-
gagged in conducting military cam
paign. and will unreservedly proceed
with that important work"
1t can be added that the introduction
OF the foregoing dispatch. as we'll as
the portion quoted. was submitted to
Dr. Mortono, who approved every
word. 1t was similarly submitted to
the Foreign Office, where it was ap-
proved throughout. Therefore the dis
patch can be accepted as being in the
highest degree authoritative.

The War in Brief.

Interest in Russia's troubles has
shifted for the moment from Manchu-
r.A, where war operations seem at a
standstill, to Russian Poland, where
the revolutionary spirit is asserting
itself in different ways.
A well-dressed man threw a bomb
into police station in a suburb of
Warsaw, wounding six policemen.
While Baron Won Nolken, Chief of Po-
lice Of Warsaw, was on his way to in
vestigate, bomb was thrown at his
carriage and he was severely injured.
The first bomb-thrower was arrested,
but the second broke away from his
captors.
The disaster threatening Russian
trade and industry has forced many
men Of the commercial classes to join
the Library movement for cessation
OF the war and for constitution. Some
OF the richest men in the Empire have
entered actively into the campaign.

cal men of the military hospital there

bombs was recently discovered on the
premises of a rich Moscow merchant.

The demand for the use Of the Polish
language in Russian Poland has devel-
oped into revolutionary movement Of
threatening dimensions.
The peasant disorders In the south
and west Of Russia continue, several
landlords having been murdered and
much property destroyed.
One OF Japan's conditions Of peace,
1t Is thought, might be the insistence
upon Q pledge from Russia that she will
build no more warships for term Of
years, it being feared that without such
. pledge Russia would take advantage
OF cessation Of hostilities to rehabili-
tate her navy.
Russia's total army strength in Man
churia is estimated at 220, GOO men.
In an interview Field Marshal Oya-
ma praises Russian officers and men as
brave and able and says he is ready to
contirSe the war as long as neces-
sary.
One hundred thousand men are ex-
pected to take part On April in the
celebration in Toxic of the capture Of

patkin in 1908 predicting war with ia
pan, but expected this to bring the
Triple Alliance and England into the
conflict.
Russian Vice-Admiral Negobatoff's
