THE SCR ANTON TRIBUNE- SATURDAY, JULY 2, 1898. -. COLONEL GUFFY VOUCHSAFES REPLY lis Makes Answer to Judge Gordon's Charge ol Perfidy. PAYS WHEN UK AGREED TO SUP TOnT GORDON HE SUPPOSED GOH DON WAS A DEMOCRAT-WHEN HE FOUND OUT HE WAS A MUGWUMP HE TOLD GORDON HE COULDN'T SUPPORT HIM-CORDON'S SMALL TRICK. Pittsburg, July 1. Democratic Na tional Committeeman Colonel J. M. Guffey, In r.eply to accusations innde by Judge Jnmcs Gay Gordon anent the Altnoiia convention, makes the follow ing statement: "I have read this morning the state rnenfof Judge James Guy Gordon, con cerning the report of the Altoona con vention. When a statement over Judge Gordon's (denature Imputes bad faith and the violation of personal pledges, It cannot he Ignored, "Judge Goidon knows when I with 'drew, niy support from him, and also why I withdrew It. AVlien J favorably nnd earnestly considered his candidacy, I suppbsed him to be a Democrat. When, 1.ho question of his Democracy VvttR raised", I made every possible ef fort, through ,hls friends nnd repre sentatives, and the chairman of the state central committee, to secure an expression from him as to his position In 1896. This effort failed, the reason for withholding such a stntcmpit.t; xi lng offered, that Judge Gordon's It'e publlcan allies bad made a request of lilm, and lie had given a promise not to do so. TJiIs was the question raised at the much-advertised New York meeting, on June 8, where It was claimed wo had agreed on Gordon. ONE THING NEEDFUL. "On the 13th of June, I advised his principal Democratic manager that no man could be supported for the head of. the ticket at the Altoona convention who had not stood by the party In 1896; that this was the one Imperative quali fication for Gordon or nny other man to secure the support of the Pennsyl vania Democracy. "On June 15, I consulted with the Democratic leaders of ten western counties, and on the following day, , over long-distance telephone, 1 advised Judge Gordon hlmselt of the deter mination that he could not be sup potted for the nomination because by his own action he had disqualified himself as a regular Democratic can didate. One week later, at the request of Gordon's leading Democratic friend, I met his principal Republican sup porter and explained to him why Gor don could not be regarded as an elig ible Democratic candidate. "These facts sufficiently reply to the asertion that 'secret and malign In fluences changed the situation on the eve of the convention In a single night. When Judge Gordon forced his candi dacy on the convention, and was over whelmingly defeated, neither corporate power nor the influence of Republican bosses had any part In it. It was due to the overwhelming eentlment of a representative Democratlo convention where Democracy was the supreme re quirement, and where no man who stabs his party in the back, either in national or municipal contests, had any standing. GORDON'S LITTLE TRICK. "When this fact was made plain, James Gay Gordon took advantage of a disagreement of the committee on resolutions to force into the conven tion, simply and solely that its action might be embarrassed, an unqualified endorsement of issues that are recog nized by all members of the party who have its real welfa'-e at heart, to have no place on this campaign. "There is no backward step on na tional issues in the platform or candi dates. The struggle this year Is on state Issues alone. It Is a battle for honest government for a great and patient people, who have been re morselessly cheated, deceived and mis governed. (Signed) James M. Guffoy. Member Democratic national com mittee for Pennsylvania. NOT TIME FOR PHACE NOW. Sagaita Bars There Can Be No Dii entilon et It Now. Madrid, July 1. Premier Sagasta, In an interview today in regard to the peace rumors, said: "They are ab surd. I am astonished that any atten tion is paid to them. There will not -be and cannot be any discussion in re gard to this matter. I affirm this ab solutely. The government cannot treat for peace now.

UNPRECEDENTED GRAIN EXPORTS Thoro Hns Never Iloforo Ileen Any thing Like It--(!onornl Condition o( limitless Is rirst-Clnsn, Despite the Wnr. New York, July 1. II. G. Dun & company's weekly review of trade will suy tomorrow: The second quarter of tho year closes with most encouraging returns. Failures have been it little larger than in tho first quarter of tho year, whereas a decrease of 6.2 per cent, might have boen expected from experience of the past ten yeurs, but with that allowance a difference of only $3,000,000 can be charged to war nnd fears of wars, whereas bolvent payments through clearing housed for the quarter were over $15,000,000,000. In tho very best years defaults range from an eighth to a fifth of 1 per cent, of such payments, and in bad turn's from a third to half of one per cent, or more, but this year the proportion is less than a fifth. The exports of wheat continue extra ordinarily. During the week they have boen, flour Included, 4,006,890 bushels from Atlantic ports against 2,064,173 last year, and Pacific exports 416,564 against 120,000 last year. This makes for the crop year, with some minor ports yet to hear from, 217,871,663 bush els of exported wheat, flour included, against 225,065,812 In 1802, the year of largest previous exports; but at the same time, 211,452, 253 bushcL? of corn have gdne out ngalnst 76,602,2S3 bush els In that year, and 17S.S17.417 last year, which was much the largest on record. The market has been a little weaker, ae is natural with abundant evidence of an enormous yield, not withstanding all reports of Injury, but cash wheat has advanced to 83. Corn has declined a fruction although the demand for export Is still beyond all precedents, and cotton is an eighth lower at 6.25, being due to the favor able reports as to the growing crop. The demand, for wool has been almost wholly confined to needs for orders in 'hand, yet there is Food reason to look for a better demand for good. as soon as the new season has opened, while with government contracts more than the usual proportion of machinery Is employed, even at this dull season. The Iron industries have some de cline in prices, in Bessemer at Pitts burg at 510.25 and in grey forgo to $9, with only $11 here, and $11.25 at Phil adelphia for No. 1 anthracite, whtlo shipments during the week have been made from Birmingham to Hamburg, Rotterdam, Great Britain, Australia and Japan, though in the aggregate not large. But contracts for 12,000 tons of steel rails have been placed at Chicago and pending contracts there for sttuctural work are estimated at 25,000 tons, while the demand for Im plement and car material Is still be yond precedent, and in general It may be Mild that the markets west of Phila delphia are rematkably strong with scarcely any indication of decline In the demand for finished products. Failures for the week have been 234 In the United States against 241 last year. BASE BALL. NATIONAL LEAGUE. Cincinnati, 4; Philadelphia, 2. Brooklyn, 8; Pittsburg, 7 (10 innings).

The course of to day's stock market was one of aimless drlftli.g until near tho close when some uppcarunco of nnlmatlon and strength developed throughout tho list. This was doubtless In largo part duo to the cov eting demand by belated shorts who did not caro to leave (heir contracts open over the three days' holiday. The buying nt tho closo lifted prices to tho top level and mndn tho net gains extending to over a point In exceptional cases. During tho earlier part of the day tho market wns nlmost entirely stagnant, many nc tlvo stocks showing not a single quota tion. It looked very much as though oven the closing up of contracts Incident to tho cvo of n three duys' suspension of finding had all been completed yesterday and there wns no disposition to venture upon frch committments on acocttnt of tho conflicting possibilities in the outlook. On the part of the bears there was lots feared tho effect of tho probable fall of Santiago, or tho occupation of MnntU. The possibility of serious harm to the crops at this critical stngo deterred op erators from ergagoments on the lonj side. Total sales were 140.SC0 shares.
