The Moran-Dlllon Affair
There nre a number of people who can
sec no particular excitement In a Moran
Dlllon affair. They likely will be entltlod
to another guess. Tho excitement should
bo thcro for exactly two reasons:
1. Neither Is Inclined to dog It! both nre
willing to light. ,
2. Each one carries the wallop.
Ofven this combination nnd the result Is
pretty sure to bo surrounded with flying
fur.
Dillon Is too much smaller than Moran
to have anything but an outside chance,
yet he Isn't giving nuay as much to Moran
as Charles Francis gave away to Wlllard.
Beating Him o It
My rival stood beside the tee;
I looked at Mm he looked at me;
And then before he said a word
I beat him to U with a bird,
Announcing, In an abject plight,
" rf(d not steep a wink last night,"
It Is too early now to say that Al Mamoux
will he another Mathewson, Johnson or
Alexnndcr. But the Pittsburgh youngster
surely Is on his way In that general direc
tion. Ho now hns .been In tho big league
only a. trlflo over a yar. Yet of his iO
starts ho has won 30 games and lost but 10.
Last season Mnmaux won 22 and lost 8. To
date this season he has won 8 and lost 2.
A kid pitcher working for a club that has
spent most of Its tlmo In tho second division
and that, In spite of this, can show a pitch
ing average of .7B0. Isn't very fnr from tho
roadbed that leads to eminent renown. Not

WOOL BARKED BY ENGLAND
Clips High in Far West General Busi
ness Good, Says Dun's Report
Conditions In tho local cotton yarn trade
show hut little change during tho Inst
month, ncordlng to tho weekly Philadel
phia trnde review of II. G. Dun & Co,
Prices are firm nnd steady nnd the'se con
ditions. It Is believed, will prevail for some
time, to come. The wool markets during tho
forepart of the Inst month were quiet, nnd
all attention seemed centred on the shear
ing sections, where extreme values were
asked nnd In many Instances paid. In the
Fnr West, shenrlng progressess favorably
nnd many clips nra being marketed at high
prices. Tho British Government has now
placed an embargo on all merino wools
from Australia and New Zealand.
The textile mills throughput the East aro
all running to their capacity and good busi
ness is looked for throughout the summer.
Business with the cloak and suit manu
facturers has generally been quiet; some
houseH now have their fall lines out and
expect n good season's business. Manu
facturers' of waists havo had a good sen
son, although weather conditions have af
fected sales during the Inst few weeks.
Manufacturers of men's clothing anticipate
a largo fall and winter business. Jobbers
of dry goods, etc., stnte there Is a fair de
mand and prices remain Arm.
The hardware line continues to show a
strong demand for the greater part of sea
sonable goods, and local wholesalers nre
doing n Inrge volume of business. Retail
business Is good.
Productjon of Iron rtnd steel continues
heavy, and the general situation presents
no material change over lastsweek. Labor
Is an Important factor In the production of
raw material, as 'well as finished product.
Furnaces aro operating to full capacity
and some old ones, which have not been
In use for several years, are being placed
In.operatlon. Makers of finished material
are busy and mills are booked ahead tn
many enses for the bnlanco of the yenr.
Foreign demand continues brisk nnd Inrge
orders nre reported placed In that direc
tion. Shoe dealers report active market and
purchases are in good-sized amounts.
Prices continue firm and delays are report.
ed In obtaining stock desired.
Tho last week shows a falling off In the
total value of new building operations of
t!5,825 over the preceding week, and In
dications are that there will be less dwelling
house operations the balance of this season.

USUAL LULL IN DRYGOODS
Underlying Conditions Continue Favor
able, Says Drygoods Economist
NUW YOliK, Juno 9. "The usual be-tween-seasons
period Is now very clenrly
defined ns regards certain classes of mer
chandise. The underlying conditions
throughout tho country continue highly fa
vorable," says the Drygoods Economist,
"and there Is no reason to regard tho tem
porary lull ns other than normal. Bnll
stocks In general are believed to be some
what heavy, but the present upward price
tendencies remove any ground for un
easiness on this score.
"All tho lines of dress fabrics together.
with staple cottons continue very firm.
Tho big Southern cotton mills report that
thoy are sold up until toward the end of tho
year. Prominent hrnnds of percales wero
advanced half-cent a yard this week. Job
bers report nn Increasing demand for awn
ing strips.
"Itaw wool continues firm nnd high.
Good prices wero realized at this week's
nuftlon sales In London. Tho new em
bargo on wools i from Australia to other
than British ports and to those of Great
Britain's colonies and allies, has advanced
prices for domestic wools. Yarn quota
tions continue firm, with an advancing ten
dency. "Itaw silk quotations In Yokohama, which
had receded about 16 per cent., havo fully
recovered and the other raw silk markets
aro firm. Silk manufacturers nre making
deliveries against the orders on hand."
