VICTORY AT MANILA PROVES A BRACER
Ocni-rnl Condition of Iliinlne * In Mn-

NEW YORK , May C. n. O. Dun & Co. '
Weekly Kevluw ot Trade will Miy tomor
row :
A state of war vraa so greatly dreaded by
thobo who have seen nothing like It for more
than thirty years that Its coming has hurt
less than Its apprehension. Especially slnco
the victory at Manila , which. Indicated the
superiority of the American navy , gun for
KUII , stocks have advanced , the average of
prices for railroads being fJ.70 per share.
The general condition of business has been
materially Improved. One day's- work by the
olllccrs and men at Manila has given many
days' work to thousands of people of whom
they knew nothing , and has placed Ameri
can Industries and Interests on a stronger
footing for any conceivable future.
The fact that gold Is now used almost
exclusively between the treasury and the
clearing house Indicates the entire freedom
from apprehension about the currency aud
public credit.
Tho' most sensational of changes , and the
most practically Important , has been the
rise In wheat 13 cents during one day's
cession , 21 4 cents from Tuesday to Thurs
day night , and 23'/5 cents for the week
throwing Into the shade all past advances
and all expectations , though reaction of
cents naturally followed on Friday.
Western receipts , after aveaglng less than
2,500,000 bushels per week for four months ,
have risen to more than 3,500,000 bushels.
Exports have not been checked by higher
prices as yet , but have caused them , amountIng -
Ing for the week to 2,094,380 bushels , flour
Included , against 1,408,107 bushels from At
lantic ports last year , and 659,848 bushels
'
against 09.608 from I'a'clflc ports.
The remarkable rise on Thursday was
largely duo to the remo\nl of duties by
Trance , and to the prohibition of exports
by HUEsln , both showing the extraordinary
needs abroad , BO that the rise of 23 % cents
for the week Is not without excuse.
.X Corn failed to advance correspondingly ,
. though the exports were 3,000,000 bushels ,
ngnnst | ) 2,275,043 bushels last year , the aggre
gate since July t having been 173,000,000
bushels , larger than ever before to date ,
although wheat exports have also been
larger than last year , far greater than In
ordinary years , and nearly the largest on
record.
Industries have received a wonderful
stimulus from the conviction that hostili
ties will not last long , and from heavy gov
ernment orders. Besides great demand for
Btcel plates and other Iron products an
ammunition , the government has ordcrc
2,200,000 yards of woolen cloth. 123,000
blankets , 1.000,000 yards of cotton cloth , am1
much provisions nnd supplies , nnd mean
while reviving confidence has multiplied
ether demands.
It Is not due to domestic demands thai
orders from the Husslan go\ernmpnt for
two big war ships have been taken by the
Tramps and orders for rails from Mexico
linvo given a good start to the rebuilt Colorado
rado works.
Kour large merchant ships have been or
dered from the Delaware works , plate mills
nro crowded , and nt the snmo time one es
tablishment far In the Interior Is bidding on
a foreign order for 5,000 tons ; while car
nnd rail works continue to receive largo or
ders , nnd demands for agricultural Imple
ments and fencing go beyond theunblljty o !
tUn wrtrks In some cases , &
Textile establishments hayljo8n recelv
Ing Inrgor orders within the last few davs
outside those from the government , so thn
the stoppage or reduction of time In four
woolen mills early In the week may have
uppn premature.
No decline whatever appears In the prices
of staple cloths or dress goods , and the
heavy auction sale of enroots was eminently
successful In clearing off at fair prices an
accumulation rc ultlnc from nn mlvnn - i
nrlcps last January which was not supported
by demand.
Wool declined about % cent In April , tak
ing the average of 100 quotations by Coitcs
Brothers , nnd the better demand for goods
lins caused more Inquiry , but thus far no
Improvement In frlces. Print cloths have
ngaln made n now low record Hi cents
but a bettor market Is seen for other cot
ton nroducts.
Vollurps for the week have bpen 238 In the
United Pntps. against 221 last year , and 25
In Canada , against 30 last year.
IT'S HE VIEW OP
Condition * Olvr Way to a
More Cheerful View.
NEW YORK. May 6. Bradstreefs tomor
row , will say :
Evidences accumulate that the corner has
been finally turned In the trade situation
nnd that circumstances which have hitherto
been regarded as disquieting have begun to
clvc way to more cheerful conditions , or nro
Beginning to be realized In n more reasonable
llpht.
llpht.While
While It Is claimed , and perhaps with jus
tice In many cases , that the changes yet
noted arc largely sentimental , and that Itttlo
that Is tanglblo Is to bn cited In the direc
tion of Improvement , It Is not to hn for
gotten that tha dullness and oven depres-
nlon ruling for some time past was likewise
largely sentimental , and. It Is now begin
ning to bo admitted by many , had oven
less of a basis to rest upon than the pres
ent unmistakable signs of Improvement ,
A new sense of national strength nnd
cnorgv seems unquestionably to have de
veloped since the news of the American vic
tory nt Manila , and the business community
goncrallv , with few exceptions , would ap
pear to have come to the conclusion that the
possible effects of the present war have al
ready been well discounted.
Among the more favorable features of the
week have been the slightly easier tone In
thn money market , and n Itttlo more dispo
sition on the part of financial Institutions
to accommodate legitimate demands of trade.
Another has been the very general foreign
rccocnltlon of tlin foreign position of wheat
supplies In the lowering , or the suspension
entlrclv , of Import wheat duties , notably In
Italy , France nnd Spain , nnd reflected In ad
vances proportionate to lha Import duty re
duction In these countries. ,
Prices , both at the seaboard and at the
Interior , have broke all records for many
years past , whlln Iho eagerness of foreign
buvers to take hold at the advance fur
nishes testimony to the fact that the pres
ent wheat corner Is not duo entirely to- the
fear of Interruptions In supplies , nor yel
to the successful projection of a wheat cor
ner , but to a considerable extent to foreign

recognition of the fact that the world's
vhcat stocks today nro smaller than they
have been for many years past , and that
some lima nuut yet clapso bcforo the ad *
mlttcdly good world's wheat crop prospects
find expression In now supplies.
Of considerable Importance In tbo dlrec-
lon of actually stimulating business In
some lines arc the largo orders received for
equipment and supplies of all sorts for
military use , notably In the lines of cotton
nnd woolen goods , shoes , projectiles and am
munition of various sorts.
It , of course , would bo useless to deny
: hat there are some unfavorable features In
vlow , notably In the cotton and woolen In
dustry. In the former print cloths have
again struck the lowest price on record ,
with a quotation of 1 G-1C cents for standard
grades , and the woolen manufacturing In
dustry la as a whole reported quite de
pressed. In contrast with these reports ,
coming chiefly from the eastern and middle
states' cities , are the salci of a considerable
quantity of raw wool , said to be for the
manufacture of goods ordered by the gov
ernment.
The wheat exports for the week reflect
the temporary check to demand caused by
sudden advances In price and show a falling
off aggregating 2.478,775 bushels , against
1,419,000 buihels last week , 1,599,000 bushels
In this week a year ago , 1,882,000 bushels In
189G nnd 2.805,000 bushels In 1895.
Corn exports nro larger In this week than
'or more than a year past , aggregating G.C1G-
000 bushels , against 4,136,000bushels last
week , 3,127,000 bushels In this week a year
ago , 1,891,000 bushels In 1898 and 934,000
bushels In 189. .
Business failures are slightly smaller this
week , aggregating for the United States
240 , against 245 last week , 228 In this week
a year ago , 267 In 1896 and 224 In 1895.

ItCVIKW OF TUB STOCK MARKET.
Lu t WCMSU'B Dnllnen * Give * Way ta
Active Speculation.
NEW YORK , May 6. Bradstrcet's Flnan-
lal Review tomorrow will say :
Last week's extreme dullness has given
place to an active speculation , the feature
of which was the renewed public buying ol
securities. The movement began on Sat
urday , when under professional leadership
.ho uiaikct showed considerable strength ,
and on Monday , when the news of Commo
dore JJewey'a victory at Manila was re
ceived , there was nn Influx of buying , both
lor long and short account.
The movement was checked on Sunday ,
more by the fact that the next day was a
holiday than by the absence of further In
formation from Manila or by the lack o' '
evidence to substantiate the belief thai
Spain had accepted the lesson of Us defeat
and was willing to end the war.
Itmay / also bo noted that professional
Interests that bought stocks heavily dur
ing the recent depreasion , either because
they were cheap or to support their owi
specialties , sold considerable amounts am
that London also marketed considerable
holdings on Tuesday.
On Wednesday London contributed to thi
renewal of the rlso by taking a rount
amount of stocks , while the local short :
covered to such an extent that the borrow
Ing demand for stocks for delivery was ma
terlally reduced , and commission houses li
most cases reported a decided accession ti
outside buying orders.
Increased activity was accompanied by ;
general advance throughout the list , th
only tangible reason , apart from the grow
Ing belief that Spain Is clearly outmatch
by our navy , being the evidence that It
Internal political and financial troubles ron
dor a further struggle on Its part absolute !
hopeless.
The fall of Spanish 4s to below 30 , th
rise of the gold premium at Madrid from 6
to 114 and the run on the Dank of Spall
and other institutions were considered
justification of this view.
Central Labor Union.
Central Labor union held a well attends
meeting last night In Labor temple , rh
chief subject under discussion was the stan
which organized labor should take with re
gard to the department store question , anne
no definite decision was had on tbo quea
tlon. Arguments were advanced In favc
ot standing by the Retailers' association 1
Its fight against department stores an
other members thought It better for th
labor unions to remain neutral on the sub

The Saints defeated the Ncbraskans this
afternoon by a regular Nebraska score ,

effective pitching on the one slda and very
bad pitching on the other. The visitors
played another poor game In the field and

The Saints again accumulated nine stolen

four hits , ono In the first , one In the fltth

them their ono run , McCaulcy's single fol
lowing Burnett's thrco-baggcr. Shugart not
