WEEKLY REVIEW OF TRADE
Despite Backyard Season the Situation Is Prom

and Steel Receiping Orders With Pre-
miunls for Prompt Delivery.

New York, May 17.-R, q. Dun's week
ly review OF trade win say tomorrow:
apart from the backwardness OF the
season, the business situation, on the
whole, maintains its recent favorable
aspect The most significant movement
is that in the iron and steel trade, in
which the latest reports are Of an ex-
panding demand. with premiums being
offered in some instances for prompt
delivery. So far as this great industry
is concerned. there has been a COM
plete breaking away from the hesitation
that has hitherto prevailed, and all indi-
cations now point to a period OF marked
activity There has been some Improve
ment in winter wheat prospects since
the last government report was issued.
and the present outlook for spring whest
is for a considerably larger yield than
last year. In spite Of the depressing
effect OF the cold wet weather the dry
goods trade continues satisfactory. In
Hoolens there is an active demand and
advancing values, while leather and
hides remain decidedly Arm. Copper
again manifests an advancing tendency.
An interesting development Is the re-
newed strength Of silver. which Is at
tributed In part TO the reduced produc-
ton In Mexico and to the Increased con-
sumption in India. Bank cleaFlnRs this
week gained 10 per cent over 1911 and
IA per cent over 1910 outside Of New York

A motion to close debate on the clause

defeated in the tri-district convention
here to-day. Opponents of President
John P. White declared that this fore
cast rejection of the agreement.
President White again spoke in favor
Of the tentative agreement, declaring
the heroes are not the men who ere
shouting strike, but those who are advo-
eating peace" He said that in New
York, Philadelphia, and Washington,
whenever there was talk of an investi-
cation OF coal company conditions the
sliding scale loomed on the horizon to
prevent IL, because II was claimed labor
shared in the profits of the coal COM
panies. This was one thing, he declared,
which led the miners leaders to consent
to the sliding scale.

KINGS BODY BACK
IN NATIVE LAND
Steamship DannebrOg, Bearing Re-
mains of Frederick VIM, Ar
rives in Copenhagen.
FUNERAL TO BE SIMPLE

Copenhagen, Denmark, May I7.-In a
heavy downpour OF rain, which drove in
sheets from the darkened and somber
skies, the body OF King Frederick VIII
was brought back to his native land to-
day. The mournful booming OF minute
guns from Fort Sixtus, at the harbor
mouth, announced the arrival OF the Dam
ish ship Dannebrog. which, accompanied
by warships, plowed through the bay
with her dripping colors haIf-masted.
The arrival Of the remains of the King
was the signal for a fresh outburst Of
grief
by a cold wind, hundreds Of men and
women gathered at the government quay
and stood in silence as the funeral ship
warped into her pier.
The funeral procession lay through the
principal streets of the city, all OF which
were lined with soldiers who stood with
grounded arms while the hearse passed
by The affection which the Danish
people bore for their late King was re-
fiected in the grief which showed in the
faces OF civilians and soldiers alike.
Queen Suffering shock.
Dowager Queen Louise and the other
members OF the royal party were con-
veyed to the castle in closed carriages
which followed the hearse.
Since the year 1895. when King Erik
Eiegod died in Cyprus, no Danish King
has died outside of his own land, until
F'rederick's death in Germany.
Frederick's funeral will be marked by
simplicity in accordance with late rulers
wishes. The customary memorial
wreaths of gold and silver will be omit
ted.
Dowager Queen Louise is still suffering
from the shock OF her husbands sudden
and tragic death. and continues under
the care Of physicians.

Russia, sisters of the late King Freder-
lex OF Denmark, will leave London on

POLICE SCOUT MURDER THEORY.

Certain William KoeIxeI Committed
Suicide, Despite Absence of S7OO.
The theory that William KoeIker, agent
for a Cumberland Cdd0 brewery, who
was found dead in his room in the Com
mercial Hotel April 30 last, was muir
dered and was not a suicide, as Coroner
hewitt adjudged, is secuted by the po-
lice. The murder theory is advanced by
Rockers two brothers, who declare the
man had. no reason 10 kill himself.
They base their theory on the fact
that Koelker had 500 in his possession
when he arrived in Washington, and
when he was found in his room he had
nothing. The door OF Rockers room
was locked from the inside and he had
a rubber gas tubing in his pocket.
