officials prevent the public from know

People Demand information.
They also prohibit the Zemstvos
from discussing the matter at their
public meetings. Families of the re-
servists, supported by all the working
classes. have been clamoring since the
beginning of the week to learn from
the zemstvoists the meaning OF the war
measures, and also the meaning of the
promises of internal reform.
All the liquor shops are closed dur

mostly at night. The men VIII be talk

fact that since the meeting at Tsarkoe

insist that they must henceforth be re-.
lieved from police duty.

that he had been negotiating with q

Annual Inventories Interfere Slightly

New York. July 1.--R G. Dun's
weekly review of trade today says:
Seasonable merchandise has gone
into distribution freely at the retail
stores the past week, duplicate orders
fer summer lines are more numerous
With jobbng business now that the
weather has become settled and travel
ing statesmen send in substantial con-
tracts to wholesale dry goods houses
for future delivery. Manufacturing
plants are we'll employed for this time
of the year. when it is customary to
make inventories and repairs, but next
week the idleness will be further in
creased. after which a general re-
sumption of activity is anticipated.
This confidence in the future and in
the increasing promptness OF mercan-
tile collections are the best features
OF the trade situation. Least salts
factory is the speculative fever that
has appeared in grain and cotton,
prices rising more than is apparently
justified by the dispatches regarding
progress on the farms.
Merchant steel and agricultural inn
PIGMENT material are fairly strong
features of the market. A little more
stability attends the steadier position
of raw wool.
In the hide market former condi-
lions have become more pronounced,
light sides gaining strength. while
heavy skins weakened. Improvement
continues in leather trading. Sample
orders for spring footwear are unus-
ually heavy, and the outlook for future
business in boots and shoes is consid-
cred bright
Failures this week numbered 249 in
the United States, against 249 last
year and in Canada 16, compared with
IL year ago.
