New York. Nov. As-R. c. Dun &
Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade says:
Colder weather has removed one of
the drawbacks to seasonable distribu-
ton of merchandise but there is still
much complaint of traffic conditions.
Retail trade shows Improvement in
nearly all sections, and mercantile coll
lectiens are more prompt. Eastern
wool sales have attained record pro-
portions but the late fall has delayed
the demand for woolens- Primary re-
ceipts of wheat are not in keeping with
maximum crop on account of freight
delays
After much irregularity, the wheat
market shows a substantial advance for
the week. Flour output increased
some. but it is still far behind the pro-
duction a year ago, and mills find
profits curtailed by the hrmness. of raw
material. Coarse grains are less active
and huctuate within narrow margins.

peka Today.

morning at the office of President AL
ford, 617 Quincy street. There was
large attendance of stockholders in
person and by proxy.
The annual report of the president
and general manager. j. r. Afford,
showed that pending disputed stock
holdings growing out of the Devlin
failure and disputed claims against
the company the management had
proceeded along the lines the great
est economy; the expenses of the
company have now been reduced to
within one hundred dollars per
month; the production of oil during
the past year aggregated 10,743 bar
rels for which a price ranging from
81 to 80 cents per barrel has been re-
ceived; the wells are now producing
an average OF thirty-five barrels day;
the company has settled a serious

ing all current bills except for the

treasury. This amount was recently
attached by the Bank of Commerce Of

showed the following claims against

brought during the last thirty days
for the face and interest:

peared to have been borrowed by
former officers of the company for

Clear and colder weather has I'M
proved retail trade and stimulated re-
order business greatly. Industry is ac-
tive, labor scarcity IS still a feature,
iron and steel markets are advancing
and large imports are the only appar-
ent source of relief.
Wool prices are rather steadier after
the large transactions of the past two
weeks. which have lifted a load from
dealers hands and made manufactur-

prices are not being shaved.
Car congestion and backward grain
deliveries due thereto are having seri-
Gus effect On that trade.

stricted and export trade is at a stand
still. Higher prices for available sup
plies are feature. Business failures

News From Interior Far From Assur-
 inn To Cxnr.


 St. Petersburg, August 1.--2:25 p. m. The greatest excitement prevails here as a result of the startling news from sveaborg and there Is the deepest ap- prehension regarding the situation at cronstadt as there is little doubt that the rising of the garrison Of the "Csibraltar of the Baltic" was a pre- mature attempt to execute a wide spread military conspiracy which in- yolved the seizlng the fortresses of SveaborE. Cronstadt and Sevastapol as bases for the revolting Black Sea and Baltic fleets.
 munication with Cronstadt was cut during the night but no sound of fir- ing has yet been heard. Although 1t Is learned that a summons to revolt was issued there the chief point now in doubt is whether the main part of the Baltic fleet, consisting of batleship and three cruisers, which were hur- riedly sent from Reval to Helslngfors upon receipt of the news of the mutiny at SveaboFg has joined in the rebel lion. The squadron is understood to he under the personal command of Grand Duke Alexander Michaeloyich. brother-in- law of Emperor Nicholas A telegram claiming to be from the com mander of the fortress has been re- ceiyed here, hut it's meaning is not clear. The despatch says:
 ''The entire crews of four warships have mutinied.'
 Other dispatches mentioned the crews of the torpedo boat destroyers and other ships on the spot as revolt ing while another dispatch says:
 "For time with a portion of the crews locked below decks, the loyal members of the crews fired on the mu- | tineers."
 If the Royal Squadron joined the l mutineers there is little hope of re- | gaining possession of Sveabork fort | ress. where 1t Is claimed six compa- nies of loyal troops are holding out | on Commander Island against the muA tineers on Michaeleviska, artillery, en- Eineer and other Islands composing the | group on which the fortress Is built. | The commander of the artillery, Gen. eraI Agiefa, was a prisoner during the night.
 The cossacks and troops ashore al | Helsingfors have reRained entire pos | session of Skatudden Island. There is no exaggeration in saying 1 that the blow coming thus suddenly | from an unexpected quarter has caused dlsmay in the government circles and | the feeling of alarm Is increased by the | had news from the interior.

 New York. August LA cable dis patch to the Herald from Venice says:
 Henry White, American ambassador to Italy, had none too pleasant an ex- perience yesterday with Italian custom officials Elr. White had been stopping at Cortina. just across the Austrian border and left early yesterday by car riage for Pleve de Galore, Italy.
 The Italian custom house on the road is established at Chiapuzzi four miles from Cortina. On arriving there. the Italian custom officers ordered the ann bassador to take all his baggage from the carriages and open 1t for inspec- ton. MT White informed the officials who he was and said his position ex- empted him from such formality. but the officers were obdurate, and a some- what heated discussion followed.
 MT. White finally decided to tele- Ngraph to the minister of foreign af- fairs at Rome As pad luck would have 1t. the minister was absent. It appeared that the under secretary of state Signor Compile finally got wind of the ! affair He promptly wired an order to the head of the custom house as Sanvite to let the ambassador pass unmolested. The message was carried to Chiapuzzi by messenger and the in- cident terminated.
 In the meantime thus eight hours had elapsed. so the ambassador had to abandon his excursion for the day
