1KDDSTEIAL AD MOXEI SITUATION.
rsrsci.ii. telegbasi to the disfatcim
XewIoek, May 8. Special telegrams
to Bradtlrccl't as in preceding weeks, did
not show a central growth in the volume of
trade in staples, although there are in
stances where business is reported qnite ac
tive and equal to expectations, even exceed
ing records of the like week a Tear ago.
Minneapolis tells men a story, as does St.
Paul, and, somewhat modified, the like is
true of Omaha. There has been n prb
aounced gain at Chicago. Nowhere else are
announced expanding volumes of business
and records in excess or 1890.
Cold weather has interrupted buying of
somo seasonable goods, but not seriously.
"West and South the crop outlook is all that
could bo desired. Sugar is sild to be a
little late in St. Louis and spring wheat
in the Northwest, but except tho probability
of n smaller area planted to cotton this
month, all acrlcultural staplft promise
heavier yields than last ) esr.
The Uencrnl Strike Situation.
Industrial disturbances the first week in
May have been numerous and costly.
Nearly 2fi,000 coal miners struck for various
causes, nltliougli n general eight-hour de.
luaud was not made. Die building and
nil led trades have been disturbed by the
flxM'hour movement, and (he total niimbsr

oottoiis have been met on several makes
with an advance.
lirjifoncli and Wool Markets.
Boston reports an improvement In de
mand. Announcements of the suspension
of the usual flannel tales have lent strength
1 to the tone of the woolen goods market gen
erally. Wool is dull, with low grade Aus
t trallans in large supply and poor demand.
Low grade dnmestlo wool is 1 cent lower.
K Leather anil hides are dull without
i chnnge. Timber, if quite variable, is in
, disappointingly slow demand at Botton and
' Philadelphia, but in good demand at
Minneapolis and St. Louis. Tobacco is
somewhat more active and a shade higher
at Cincinnati, but is blow of sale at Phila
delphia. Live stock is firm and higher at
Kansas City. At Omaha cattle are higher
am a light supply, but hogs are 5 cents
lower.
Tin plate lis advancing in California on
the prospect for avervlarge fruit crop there.
Sugar is weak and c off on raw and re
fined, on weakness abroad. Domestic de
mand is still good, but prices promise to
favor buyers till the June fruit-canning de
mand sets in.
Business Failures and Money Markets.
Business failures in the United States
number ICG, against 190 last week, and 152
this week last year. The total from January
1 to date is 4,439, against 4,290 last year.
Money has been more sensitive during the
week, owing to continued exports of gold,
with a prospect of further disturbance in
European money marKets.owing to Russia's
demand for gold, Domestio funds are re
turning to New York with freedom, but
country collections, with exceptions, are
not made so promptly as expected.
Bank clearings at S8 cities for the week
ended May 7 amount to 51,321,138,064. a de
crease from tins week la-t vear of 17 per
ceuu .am, cities jsct iorK a total ex
cludeda gain ot 2 per cent is shown.
Gold shipments, fears of tigbt money and
uneasy conditions abroad have created a de
pressed tendency in share speculation, al
though the harmonious railroad meeting,
the punishment of rate cutting and the
adoption of plans to render the Western
railroad agreement more stringent has a
sustaining effect. Bonds are dull and
steady.
KiporU oftVhcnt nnd Flour.
Exports of wheat, nnd of flour as wheat,
from both coasts, increased again this week,
equalling (from tho Unitcl States ex
clusively) 2,273.174 bushels, nealnst 1,873,
270 bushels In tho first week of May, 1800;
J.278,000 buhcls in 1889, nnd 1,4CS,000

U, 0, Pun ft Oo,'s weekly review aayn
he strngcle to sustain liusslan seenritlas
BRalnst the disfavor ol the Jtotbiobllds. the
demand for paid by German bankers and
tho threatened withdrawal of Kussfan gold
from deposits In KncUnd, Franca and
Germany, account for niuoh of tho unusual
movement ni specie which lias heuu m
progress. The advance of half of 1 per cent
nt once in the rate charged by the Bank of
England, is rightly regarded as a notifies
tion that England means to fortify itself in
the great struggle by drawing gold from
New York.
Comes nt tho Most Convenient Time.
The sudden demand comes at the season
when this market can spare gold with less
Inconvenience than nt any other, and the
continued issues cf silver notes make the
withdrawal from circulation less felt.
Though the fact that 47 per cent of customs
receipts at New York are now in silver pa
per, it shows that the remedy cannot last
nlways.
Mar starts off with the great plunge in
speculative prices, which has for some 'Weeks
been anticipated. Wheat fell IS cents in as
many days. Sales here last. week were
65,000,000 bushels, with a net decline or t
cents, and while corn has declined 2 cents
in sympathy, and many speculators have
suffered, the sales have been but 11,000,000
bushels.
An element of great strength is the ac
cumulator evidence that the wheat pros
pect at the West is remarkably good, the
acreage having increased heavily, a third in
tTantai find II nntrtr tn WatlilhtrlAti tTUm
unusually cold weather, while injuring fruit
and vegetables at many points, does not ap
pear to have seriously affected the larger
crops, which promise exceptionally well.
Hopeful for Manufactured Products.
After such high prices as have been'
realized, farmers are widely inclined to put
in a greater acreage of wheat, oats and corn,
especially as the foreign advices foreshadow
a larger demand for wheat With such an
agricultural outlook the demand for manu
factured products of all kinds is likely to
improve, and thns the great industries will
be helped. Iron already feels the stiffening,
influencerand some kinds and grades are a
shade higher than a week ago, with a larger
bnying of pig iron at unchanged prices.
The demand for structural iron is, for the(
time, lessened by the extensive strikes in
building trades, but lor bar and plates there
is more demand. Wool is scarce, and the
manufacture not inclined to activity until
the new clip comes forward freely.
Returns from other points show a rather
quiet trade: At Boston only fair, with com
plaints in many quarters; at Philadelphia
fine wool is 2 cents lower. Collections are,
on the whole, somewhat improved, but there
is yet much complaint At Hartford trade
is picking up. and at Pittsburg light im
provement is seen m Bessemer nnd some
kinds of manufactured iron.
Business nt Western Points.
At Cleveland, trade is fairly good in hard,
ware, shoes and groceries, but light in dry
goods and clothing, and dull in iron. At
Detroit cold weather makes trade slack.
Lako freights arc lower than at the opening,
and at Milwnukee building strlkss affect
trade, but at St Paul trade is fair and crop
prospects are excellent
The extensive private advices received at
Chicsgoas to crops have tho saino.tenor.and
drygoods, trade Is better, with clothing,
aud in shoes satisfactory. Hecclpti of cured
nests and lard fall behind last year's, but
is an Increase of 25 per oent In woo and 33
per oent lu obeess and butter. Cincinnati
and Chicago report fair trado, with shoe
manufacturers busy. At Bt Louis the
promise Is excellent, nnd at Kansas City
there Is eoina Improvement, oi at Denver
also,
New Orleans reports fair trade, with cotton
lu inodprala demand! nt somewhat better

My little grandson baring been eured of an
eciema. by the UUTICDKA. Kemedies, I was pre
vailed upon by my wife and daughters to try it
myself for a distressing skin malady that has been
tne bane of my life for twenty years.
It required a good deal of persuasion to get mo
to try It for I armed that a man seventy years of
age could not bo cured by tne same remedy that a
two-t car-old child was. 1 was perfectly aston
ished at the result however. In one weet my
eruption bad nearly disappeared, nnd In two
weeks there was not a vestige of It left. A. trans
formation took place from a leprous to a fine,
hrklthy skin. My head, before 1 commenced the
use of the coticcra llsar ei", was covered with
scales and patcnes or dead skin, wblcn I could
pall oQ In pieces theslieof a dime, while from
my elbows, knees, and other parts of my body. I
conld detach strips tne size ofa half dollar. My
head had such an appearance that I avoided soci

An "Evening leader" (Grand

Serious Injury,
Brief History of a Brave Little Fel
low's Patient Suffering,
. It will be a year in November since one of
tho brightest faces among the Evening;
Leader's throng of nappy newsboys was sud
denly mlsssdfrom his regular daily visits i.t
tho counting rooms. Ills rosy cheeks and
sparkllnc eyes, full of fun and enthuilaim. In
tontitlea by the knowledge that he was earn
ing money by his own efforts, made him a con
spicuous figure among his host of little com
petitors. Uy Inquiry It was learned that the llttla busi

my reeling of gratitude and toy as I saw rat

dootor said: 'Your boy will play ball In three

oloto to my heart and watched its fulfillment.
He grew better right along, bis mental and
