Outlook Still Gloomy as Viewed by R.
G. Dun & Co., Though Failures
Are Not Numerous.
New York, June 80 R. G. Dan A
Co's. weekly review of trade will say
tomorrow :
The grant strike of coal miners has
ended at most, points, but another
threatens to interrupt business more
seriously for a time, though the num
ber of h.imU engag d is comparatively
small. Travel and traffic are well nigh
trreste I on about t wenty western roads
already, and stiik'-s are threatened on
all roads which us" Pullman cars. As
the public and tbe railroads leasing the
cars nave no pawr tn giy what
vagus s'jall be ptid at the Pullman
shopj, and the receipts of that
company from t.ie railroads do not de
pend on the running 01 leasel cars, it
is alii tilt to calculate how long so pe
culiar a strike may last, or how far it
may extend. On tbe whole, other
clu.nges for the w?ek have been lor
the better. Many manufacturing es
tablishments which were stopped by
Wjnt of fuel have resumed. Exports
of ijold have almost ceased, crop proe
psclsgrow better as the hstVest draws
nearer.
The resumption of work in mines
and mills has made good progress, but
the demand lor products is as yet
smaller and less urgent than was ex
pected, linyers apparently wait for
lows! prices of iron and steel products,
which manufacturers are Blow to give,
In vi w of the increased eost of materi
als and production. After the suspen
sion of half the working force for mora
than u month, it was expected that
,r.iers for products would ba very
large, but instead there is general
complaint of dullness and narrow de
mand, and prices for Bessemer pig and
oiue finished forms are a little weaker.
Textile manufacturers are much em
barrassed by tho near approach of
probable change in the tariff, tn- ef
feot of which cannot yet be calculated.
No correct statement or failures for
.Tune or the half year is yet possible,
but our returns show gratifying im
provement over last Vf.ar. This week
the failures have been 21 1 in the United
States against :!n7 last year and 89 in
Canada against 27 last year. Ut late
trie nnmber and importance of failures
n. .ve increased a little, as is usual at
the close of tho ha if year.

A dlspstch to the Chronicle from

a d Japan is imminent,
Washington, June 29. The latest
information reoeived at the navy de
partment about Coraan matters was
from Hear Admiral Skerrett, who,
few days ago, reported everything
o,uiot. This government is Inadequately
represented in eastern waters, should
hostilities between Japan and China
begin, tnere being only two vessels
which could be utilised to protect its
interests, One of these, tbe Monoeaoy
is now in the Yattgtai kiang rivtr, and

Baltimore is iu Corean waters, where
she was ordered at the time of the
(rouble in Corea began.
An ollio-r of the state department

was that the C'liiieso had mads a pro
position to the Japanese government
thut both countries withdraw thifir
tioops from Corean territory Simul

to accede to the pr position. While
this government c lUld not undertake
