NEW YOHK , May 13. n. O. Dun & Co.'s
Weekly Hevlew ot Trade tomorrow will say :
Hostilities have lasted long enough to kill
many predictions , If but few Americans.
The European notion that the United States
would begin by having a bad half hour , the
theorists' notion that everybody knows a
great panto must follow the outbreak of
war , the commercial buyers' notion that
overbody would be ready to sell everything
cheap If war came , the notion that It would
pay to hoard money until the emergency
had passed , have all been made laughable
already. The only panic was that money
lenders wore wondering what deadly Impoa-
Klbilltles the unknown might havu In store
for them. The only hindrance of industry
has been due to waiting of buyers who
looked for lower prices.
Nbthlng disheartening can bo sc on In the
Industrial situation except tbo closing ot
eoine cotton mills owing to overproduction
und the fall of print cloths to l.STc.
Cotton has not risen nbov e C 87 cents , nnd
many stories of reduced acreage are cur
rent , ns u year ago , but they do not weigh
much In view of the actual receipts of
1,600,000 bales.
Receipts of wool have been only 4,007,000
pounds at the three chief markets for two
weeks , against 14,330,000 and 11,207,300 In
181)0 ) and 18)7 ! , but prices are somewhat
more linn , and there Is more demand for
goods apart from the largo government or
ders.
The demand for boots and shoes having
passed all recent orders , has abated , nnd
Just at tlftt faolnt where nthere Is general
change from ono season ; to another , the
actual receipts were 'i pet cent larger than
last > ear , nnd 11 per ctgit larger thun In ,
Ib'i2 , though smaller than In other years. I
Leather is rising , with no active demand ,
nnd hides at Chicago have advanced about 4
per cent In sj > lto of the fact that cattle
slaughtered at the four chief western mar
kets this year are considerably more than
in any other year , excepting IS'JS nnd 1891.
The output of pig Iron 234,103 tons
weekly , May 1 , against 233,33'J tons April 1
sh&ws practically no change , excepting the
increase ot 85D tons weekly In charcoal iron.
Deducting the unsold stocks , which In
creased In April 23.C1G tons , the apparent
consumption In that month was 32COfl tons
dully , against 32,209 tons dally during the
previous four months. This general ex
pectation of expanding demand holds prices
Hteady for nil finished products of Iron and
Btecl ; nnd with considerable sales of IJesao-
iner pig It Is 10 cents higher at Plttsburg ,
with other quotations there nnd at Chicago
and at Philadelphia practically unchanged.
Government orders are heavy and yet
cover but little of the consumption , though
they go far to cause the overcrowding of
8blp > ards and plato mills , but higher prices
for wheat have brought enormous demands
for agricultural Implements and also for
locomotives and cars , while many buildings
In western ( owns , nnd orders for many rail
roads and bridges , for canal Improvement
nt Chicago , and 25,000 tons of steel rails at
the cast , make1 up a heavy volume.
Money is easy since the policy of contrac
tion has cased , and only $1,700.000 went to
the Interior during the week , whllo the now
loans of the chief banks averaged 45 per
cunt of the total to commercial Interests ,
against 25 per cent and JO per cent last
week and two weeks ago , with rates much
lower than were qulot recently refused.
The government ! paying gold over the
counter largely because Jt needs notes
more than coin , nnd $7,000,000 in gold
have been ordered during the week , In
cluding J2,600,000 from Australia , making
J78.3C3.350 ordered , of which about $11,000-
000 has yet to come.
Failures for the first week of May repre
sent $7,798.777 , against $3,945,354 last year
and $4,138,271 In 18SG. Manufacturing , $1-
411,275 , against $1,275,316 last year. Fail
ures for the week have been 246 In the
United States , against 204 last year , and
24 In Canada , ogalnst 31 last year.
IIKVIBW OV THE STOCK MA11KET.
\Vnll Street Devotrn the Week to
IlnlllnU Speculation.
NEW YOllK , May 13. Dradstreet's Finan
cial Hovlew tomorrow will say :
In the main Wall street has devoted the
present week to an active bullish specula
tion , based on the naval victory at Manila ,
and the expectation of other successes , as
well as on the accumulated evidences of
Spain's financial and military weakness ,
and the bcllcT that a war will be soon de
cided , oven if peace is not at once as
sured.
The excited speculation in grain , and the
high quotations recorded for wheat , wcro
also bullish factors , mainly because In con
junction with the prospect ot another large
wheat crop , the prices apparently Insure a
very prosperous season to the western rail
roads.
The stock market was not , however , with
out spells ot hesitation , or even of slight
reaction. London was also a rather pro
nounced seller ot stocks on the advance ) ,
professional Interests there disposing of
considerable amounts , which were bought
on the declines In March and April. Its
offerings were , however , well taken , and

Many husbands , after paying big doctor-

have at last written to a physician of na

They have been justly indignant at the ig

The paiBBge of stock ! from itrong Into
weak hands was , however , a feature , and
Iti natural consequence was toward the end
of the week the market appeared to be over
bought , nnd bad a disposition to rest on
tbo absence of further favorable nuws , and
to wait for developments In connection with
the campaign against Cuba and Porto Hlco.
This naturally provoked some realizing by
profemlonali us welt as bearish activity by
the traders.
There was more or less pool manipulation
ecn In the market , and some of the spe
cialties were the objects of revived activity
of an artificial origin.
The waiting nnd somewhat reactionary dis
position was increased on Friday by the
news that the Spanish Capo Verde fleet had
arrived In West Indian waters , and the re
sulting anxiety ns to the result of the ex-

however , large , nnd the close was steady
and dull at a slight rally.

NEW YOIIK , May 13. Bradstreefs tomor
row will say :
The business situation gains rather than
oscs in attractiveness as the spring season
advances. While , of course , t ie very favor
able situation In cereals Is still the main
spring of the Improvement In many sec-
ions , there ore other causes to make the
outlook for business for Ute curent year a
latterlng one.
Following the rapid advances In prices of
wheat , which apparently culminated , for the
I mo being , early In the week , in a quota
tion for cash wheat unequalcd , with one
single exception , nnd that only for a vciy
short period of time , for tvtenty-flvo yeirs
past , there has come a lull nnd a reaction
rom the abnormally high prices , caused by
the squeeze in May delivery , which , how
ever , has left prices far above quotations
for nt least ten years back. Telegraphic
and cable advices to Bradstrcct's only ac
centuate the already veil known bullish
nature of the Immediate wheat situation ,
while on the other baud , ovvln ? to the gcft-
erailr admitted eood croo situation , par
ticularly In this and otner countries , the
outlook nunears to favor somewhat lower
orlces than those now ruling , for next sea
son's yield , although above tUoso ruling for
the last six years.
With the qlotlng down of Interest In
wheat there has come a partial shifting ol
speculative interest to other ( rains , par
ticularly corn and oats and many classes
of provisions , with advances in nearly all
those lines.
A rather moro confident feeling seems to
pervade the Iron trade , which Is reflected
In fractional advances for leading makes o :
Iron and steel. Features of the week are
very heavy sales of pig iron nt many mar
kets , but It 10 again claimed that stocks
have begun to accumulate at some points as
a result of the continued enormous produc
tion , which Is placed at 1,000,000 tons per
month.
Perhaps ono of the moat encouraging
features of the week , and ono espcclaly ac
ceptable because of the hitherto very de
pressed conditions prevailing , la tbo re
ported slight Improvement in inquiry and in
tone in th.6 wool market at several cen
ters.
ters.The
The price situation is still ono of grca
strength , but particularly so in food prod
ucts , which arc with few exceptions , notably
coffee and sugar , higher on the week.
Wheat exports are slightly larger than
last week , aggregating 3C&2,543 bushels
against a total last week ( corrected ) o :
2,923,775 bushels , and comparing with 2.183 , .
000 bushels In this week a year ago , 1,9.3,001
bushels In 1896 , 2.397,000 In 1895 and 2,420.-
000 bushels In 1894.
Corn exports reflect the returning of for
olgn demand from high to lower prlcei
grains In a total ot 6,077,000 bushels. Tbt
Is slightly smaller than the total a week
ago , but Is nearly twice that exported In
this week last year , and compared wlih
1.6C8.000 bushels in 1890 and 1,210,00' '
bushels In 1895.
Business failures In the United States
show a slight gain for the veek , number

PHILADELPHIA , May 13. Pugilistic history -
tory was made very rapidly at the Arena
tonight , when In one minute nnd flfty-one
seconds of combined sparring and fighting ,
Joe Goddard , the "Barrier champion , " re
tired Peter Maber , with a sort of pivot
punch which was delivered so suddenly that
hardly a spectator realized what had come
off.
off.Up
Up to the time ho received hla quietus
Mnher looked like a winner. What few
'punches had been landed were In his favor ,
s n matter of fact , QoJdard landed the
unch which proved so disastrous to Peter
hllo trying to escape from one of the Int-
er's vigorous onslaughts near the ropes.
It was evident that Goddard was In the
cttcr phjslcal condition of the t\\o. He
ookcd pounds lighter than upon the oc-
aslon of his memorable encounter with
eter before at Coney Island , and displayed
shiftiness that v\as surprising In one of
Is years.
There was the usual fiddling nt the open-
ng , and no end of feinting , both men being
pparently desirous of drawing the other
ito a lead. Mahcr took the Initiative , es-
aylng a left-hander , which fell short.
Goddard also tried the same , but his effort
ns also short. Goddard , houe\er , In-
arlably follow eel up his lefts with his right
o\\ard the body , which saved him from at
east one good stiff counter. Mahcr finally
inded with his left hard on Goddord's Jaw.
oddard swung for the body and landed , but
t did not amount to much , and a clinch fol-
owcd.
As soon as the men broke away , Maher
again took the offensive , landing with his
eng left on Goddard's face , the barrier
hamplou retaliating with the right on the
ody. Mnher rushed Goddard to the ropes ,
hero was a slight mix up.
Suddenly Goddard , who appeared to bo
rcaklng avtny , brought his right around
i a backward movement The end of his
love caught Maher on the jaw 01 about the
ace , whether on the Jnw , where Goddard
a > s It did , or on the check bone , where
lahcr says It did , will probably never bo
evcaled.
As Mahcr received the punch , ho was
artly tripped by Goddard , whoso rlsht foot
vns covering one of Maher's. Peter fell
ace forward , striking the flooi with a great
enl of force.
When Maher went down the spectators
bought It was only an ordinary knock-
own , but the referee tolled off the fateful
en seconds , and Mahcr was still on the
oor. It was fully ton seconds beyond
hnt time before ho rose to his feet.
The time of the fight was Just one minute
, nd fifty-one seconds.

and in Italy there are barricades , burning

of the people who are unable to get bread

DKNVEK. May 13. ( Special. ) Commis
sioner Horn * Leo of the State Dm can of
dines has just Issued his report for 1897.
The mlnetal Industry of Colorado Is tioatcd
jy Commlsslone r Lee In n very concise nnd
readable manner. Colorado's total pioduc-
lon of gold , silver , lcadaml _ copper for 1897
s given by counties In'claliorato jet com-
> act tables Colorado's total output of
heso four metals since their first dlscovciy
n the state up to Januaiy 1 , 1S98 , Is shown
n the same manner.
The report shows that 3.276 now specimens
lave been added to the mineral collection
n the stnto capital building , that 29,215 inun
are actively employed In mining In the state ,
exclusive of brokers , suivcjors , etc , and
that there were 110 fatal and 1C1) non-fatal
accidents In Colorado mines last year. It
also shows what recommendations were ,
made for improving nnd tendering safe the
nines.
The average rate of wages of men em
ployed In mines hi the state Is shown by a
able. It Is noticeable that the figures In
he report differ materially from oth rs that
mve been published by other apparently rc-
lable persons. For Instance , Colorado's to
tal gold output for 1S97 Is given ns only
$19,579,036 83.
Kl Paso county. Including Cripple Creek ,
Is credited with only a $10,131,855.24 output
ot gold , whllo Ollpln Is given a gold produc
tion of $2,080,471.14 , almost double that al
ow ed by most other persons. .
From the evident careful and painstaking
way In which Commissioner Lee has gath
ered his data It is probabln that his report
s the most reliable one yet published on
the mineral output ol Colorado. The figures
; lven , however , are , no doubt , on the whole ,
.00 low. The estimates have evidently been
made without counting In what gold escapes
.he accountant's eye , which , In Colorado ,
must amount lu value to several millions
ot dollars.
Commissioner Leo's estimate of the pro
duction of gold , silver , lend and copper of
Colorado by counties in 18t7 Is shown by
elaborate tables and also the total output of
.he state since the discovery of these four
metals In it forty years ago.
Summarizing , Commissioner Lee estimates
the total mineral output of Colorado up to
January 1 , 1898 , as follows :
Gold , 8,373,658 ounces , worth $173,083,523.
Silver , 339,023,940 ounces , worth $312,79-
Copper , 75,300,923 pounds , worth $9,137-

Lead , 2,010,100,092 pounds , worth $33,014-

S. W. L Keyes and A. L. Shoemaker have
discovered petroleum In the lllo Grnmlo
canon. Taos county. The point of discovery
shows a spring , from which the crude oil
flows over the sand , making a deposit closely
resembling asphaltum. The existence of pe
troleum deposits In the. territory has long
been known , and should the new discovery
move of sufficient value there Is no doubt
plenty of capital will be found for the de
velopment.
