VICTORIA , n. C. , June 12. ( Toklo , Japan ,
May 31. Per Steamer Empress of China )
No event of striking Interest has occurred In
the past fortnight and none Is expected till
after the reunion of the Japanese ministry
In Toklo. The people nourish In sullen
Bllenco their discontent with the methods by
which peace has been secured , and , as a
whole , refuse to participate In any display of
gratification at the close of the war. In
many quarters doubts are expressed as to
the durability ot the settlement with Russia ,
Germany and France.
The newspapers are not permitted to speak
freely , but a majority of those who escaped
suspension hint at the probability that fresh
entanglements are presently to bo disclosed.
Government securities continue depressed and
war bonds are selling at lower figures than
before peace was declared. The best Informa
tion that can be gathered from official
sources IB distinctly reassuring up to this
present time. The foreign office affirms that
no ground for apprehension exists with regard
to either of the recently hostile European
powers. The diplomatic representatives of
those powers contradict all reports that
further trouble Is anticipated It Is bellevd
to be true that Russia goes on strengthening
the defenses at Vladlvostock. But Japan
evidently does not look upon this as a warn
ing , for she has disbanded her reserves and
Is preparing to restore her arm ) divisions to
their peace footing. Public feeling is as un
friendly to the administration as If the
empire's Interests had btn sacrificed In every
particular The acquisition of Formosa Is
taken as a matter of course , whllo the
abandonment of Manchuria Is bewailed as
\ grlevoi'sly as If the deareat hopes of the
nation had been centered wholly upon that
single strip of terrltor )
The government of Corea has fallen Into
such demoralization that no pretense of re
form is now maintained The ministers give
no heed to public business , but scheme only
to enrich themselves by negotiation with
Russia for the sale of a port on the eastern
coast , others by offering counter proposals
to European powers , which are opposed to
Russian aggrandizement , still others conniv
ing at returning the exiles who were driven
from the countr ) when China's Influence was
dethroned Count Imiouyo has not yet fou-id
a way to bring order out of the Corean
chaos and It Is reported that , sick and
weary of the struggle , he Is about to leave
the country
The Coreans will assume that Japan has
decided to abandon her task of regenerating
the wretched kingdom and nothing can pre
vent the queen from reviving the corrupt
system of former ) ears She will fc" supreme ,
for Taln-Won-Kun , who formerly held her
In check , has apparently gone Into decreptl-
tude since his grandson was banished for
plotting murder and treason. The old man's
latest exploit was a cunningly arranged flight
from his palace , with a view to Joining the
expatriated criminal , but 100 policemen
dtove htm back The Japanese legation 1 ;
now quite disregarded , owing to the im
pression that the Japanese position In Coren
will hereafter depend on Russian dictation ,
but the Japanese government denies any de
parture from the policy of preserving Coreo
against self-destiuctlon and piloting her to
ward selfgoeminent. .

LONDON , June 12 The Rome correspond
ent of the Standard telegraphs ttut It li
announced that the papal nuncios at Paris
Lisbon , Madrid and Vienna will be createc
cardinals. The news causes much Interest
In Vatican circles b ° causc It will disturb thi
equilibrium of the preponderance of Italiar
cardinals In the sacred college. The pope , It
announcing the fact , said"We hope thui
to create a position more In conformity will
papal Interests In the world and to furnlsl
the sacred college the means to successful ! ;
surmount the difficult and delicate period o
our succession "
The Chronicle's Rome correspondent say
with reference to the same subject "Mgr
Jacobin ! , the nuncio at Lisbon is regardci
with great Interest In connection with th. .
succession. More Important , however , Is th
growing possibility of a non-Italian pope Fo
cogent reasons this could only b3 an Amen
can , a Swiss or A Belgian The first , In thi
person of Cardinal Glbbans , Is the leas
unlikely. Ihe other candidates , with th
exception of Cardinal Parocchl and Cardlna
Vannutelll , are fading away The proverb wil
probably again hold good that the cardlna

WASHINGTON , June 12. The question ol
how much Injury was caused by the scv n
weather In May to peaches and apples wll
be dealt with In a special article In tht
June crop report , which will be Issued bj
the Agricultural department next week. Th <
damage was much less than was anticipated
The report will say "Tho first report o
the season relative to the condition o
peaches Is decidedly more favorable that
that received In June , 1S94. Only two state ;
of primary Importance have a low condl
tlon , namely , Ohio , 22 per cent , and Mlchl
gan , CO per cent , while Marland Is the enl ]
remaining state with a per cent less thai
70. the condition there being 63. Of thi
states of secondary commercial Importance
namely , North Carolina , Florida , Missouri
Te\as , Arkansas , Tennessee , Kentucky , In
djana and Illinois , three , Kentucky , Inllam
and Illinois have the lowest figures 35 , 2 :
an I 5 , respectively while In the others per
rentages range from 72 In Missouri to 101
In Arkansas In 1S94 thirteen out of thi
twenty-one states In the above classes ha >
percentages below 10 "
With reference to apples the report wll
say. "Tho general condition ot apples Jun
1 Is higher than on the same date In 1894
The New England states. New York , Penn

and Iowa are Important exceptions to thi
generalization , and of these New Hampihlrc

sin , Iowa and Minnesota have percentage
disappointingly low The frosts of Ma
have done much damage , although , as 1
usually the result , the orchards In favore
situations , even In district ! suffering mcil
have apparently escaped Injury , It Is to
early to determine how great the damag
from the ccld weather has been. Often tb
full effects of such spells are only realize
after the excessive dropping ot fruit 1
Juno has left orchards nearly bare. As the
conditions arc stated June 1 , however , they
Indicate , except In states above cited , a

At Minneapolis business was dull ; buyers

ders were taken for about half the oatput ,
bat it was wholly domestic. Foreigners still
stand aloof , claiming our prices are too high
IMtents were held at 15 cents to 20 c nts
higher by some parties , owing to the ad
vance In wheat The output Is llkel ) to show
in approximate decrease of 40 000 barrels
this we k on account , of dull trade. Country
mills are also running considerably lighter
Minneapolis export shipments were 3G 500
barrels , against 41 500 barrels the wt ° k be
fore. At Superlor-Duluth busln ° ss was un
satisfactory , the trade continuing to take
flour from middlemen at prices millers
rould not touch The advance In wheat de-
tro > ed the prospect of exporting freely , and
trade In thit quarter Is no belter than a
week ago Export shipments vcre 2.950 bar
rels , against 13.C43 barrels the week before
At Milwaukee the output promises to aver
age light for two or three weeks. The de
mand for flour Is mild.
At St. Louis flour was dull and not en
couraging The scarcity of cash wheat had
ts effect , and while some change for the
better crept In Friday and Saturday , holders
seemed to stiffen up with the demand and
practically no business lasulted. Firmness
among millers and holders made It hard to
do much business at New York , where buy

unbroken record of advances all along the

the upward tendency has developed so fast
without the powerful aid of heavj purchases
from the principal consumers , the railroads
The central west leads In the advance , and
the boom feeling prevailing there seems Justi
fied because there Is practical ! ) no reserve
capacity In furnace plants or steel works It
Is reall ) enl ) In Chicago that such a reserve
1oes exist anywhere west of the Alleghaii )
mountains It Iser ) different In the east ,
and , so far as pig Iron Is concerned , In the
south , and notibly In Virginia
The rise In s'eel and the difficulty In get
ting tin pUto bars Is making the domestic
manufacturers of tin plate nervous over the
danger of being forc3d to surrender a part
of their market to foreign makers The ore
market has shown some serious developments
atelv There have been some sales of lake
bessemer , with a stiffening In prices and a
icrfect slaughter of Iron and bessemer or * > s
The railroads have demanded peremptorll )
ho clearing of the docks of nonbessemet
ores , and under that pressure they have been
sold down to $1 75 at Lake Erie ports
There Is a good deal of activity In finished
