IRON SITUATION THE CHIEF FEATURE Htilmlileiiro of Ilic Ilooni I'nllona CCNNntltlll lf IttlMll Order nnil a lleUllJlldtllH'Ilt ltcxnlt. NKW YORK, May 13. (Special.) Henry Clews, hca.l of the hanking houso of Henry Clews & Co., writes of thu situation In Wall Btrcet: rknndVhdl,en!lency h' bullish than two weeks ngo. OooI rtaoni, exist for u otr ct y moderate rcniiion. Vnlues of good properties wit.-often pretty high ami mora or less H'luWnt o no f spec lntlve necounts wus Inevitable In tno nn ience of freh stimulus to outside Inlying, llere and there securities could tie picked out which had not received their full share of the rlHe l.ut with n modification of vornb.e c.md.t.ons In ot u r jailer tl el tinue ho doing for monuis ami ibiui years to come. The worm that can be said Ih that the abnormal rush of orders, the like of which was never before experienced, has subsided, and the extreme prices which buyers paid In thilr panic-like anxiety ate now a thins of the- past. Demand Is tern vorarlly nbatlng, production Is Increasing and values must soon reach a morn ni tinii .asls, and this may not be actomp 1 she. without some Injury to the poorly inl peil nnd poorly orgnnlzed concerns which o ugl t never to have enternl the race of competl lion. This condition Is no surprise to those engaged In the Iron business; a reaction has long been foreseen and. as soon as lirlces have settled down to a lower and tnnro reasonable basis, It Is mure than lirobable that a new set of orders will be received; there liclng many enterprise h. Im provements and enlargements which hae been postponed owing to the hlnh prices of Iron. While the riudJtiHtlng process In the Iron trade may Injure those unprepared, It will result In placing that creat Imlunry on a stronger and mnro enduring mate or prosperity than Just now exists. I he I lilted Htates with Its unlimited supplies of cheap ores, lis unrivaled means of transportation and Its uneinmled skill In the art, of manu. fncturlng on a law H'lilo will lead the world In Iron manufacturing; If. Indeed, it has not already reached the pos Hon of leader. Alnudy we are successfully plac ing our Iron products, from pig Iron to locomotives, to typewriters and hundreds of other articles, In the foreign markets hitherto controlled by Knelanil and Ger many. Our success In these fields Is an assured fact; the future Is simply a matter of growth, or, to use a mjiro suitable word, expansion. In the future the Iron Industry will no longer be solely dependent upon tho (homo market, nnd the periods or excessive congeitlon which that meant will he fewer nnd fnr between, ror tho foreign markets will ofror an unlimited Held If properly culti vated to American enterprise for yenrs to come. We nre accustomed In this country i hiikIIb nf violent depression after every morlnil of unusual activity, and it will bo interesting to observe as to how far these new outlets ror our surplus win save us from the effects of oversuniilv and reaction. (leneral trade shows some signs, of less activity, but not more thnn could be reason ably expected after tho rush or the last Blx months. In the textllo trades the pace bus been a little too fast In some respects and huyers finding values unsettled arc holding ofT until their law early purchases are disposed of- In Home lines ot groceries there are sli:ns nf overbuvlnir. and similar reports are heard here and there rrom other trades. As a whole, tho business situation Is sound nnd promising. The approach of a presidential election acts as a deterrent In some quarters, much more than It really nhouhl, but theie Is every prospect ot a renewed revival of business when the elec tions have been discounted and values Ibrouirht down to n morn normal level - The Immediate future or the stock mnr ket Is somewhat problematical. There Is no reason Tor any Important declines. Tho Industrials have already dropped consider ably below top figures, whllu tint railroads nre making such excellent returns that no anxiety need bo manifested should they cease overtonnlnir tho big trains ot 1MK). On tho other hand, It would be dllllcult to force nny pronounced bull movement iTniler pres ent conditions. A good many operators nttach more importance to campaign ora tory and gold shipments thnn they deserve. hence tnese motors may uueci pruis an versely. Again, the summer season Is an jiroiichlng and a period or quiet and un certainty Is likely to prevail until the time when the crop outlook nnd presidential uncertainties are more settled than now Kor the present purchases should only bo made on good declines and profits taken on an snarp rallies.

The Parisian sensation of tho hour Is tho alleged abduction of the celebrated writer, "Gyp," whoso real namo la Comtesso Martello do Mlrabcati, a descendant of tho revolutionary Mlrabcau's Sho was found early on Sunday morning wandering about Pont do llorcy. Her clothes wcro torn and her face scratched and apparently sho did not know whero aho was. The comtcesc told the police that sho had been taken away In a carrlago by three men to nn unknown chateau and locked In a room, from which she (succeeded In escaping, with great dllllculty. Tho pollco bcllc-vo she Is tho victim of a hallucination, Tho comtesso when found hy the police. nsked whero sho was, nnd being told, re quested that sho bo driven to tho hotiso ot n friend, Ileforo complying with this re quest, however, tho rcdlce. took her before tho pollco commissary lu tho Salpetrloio quarter, to whom she made an extraordinary declaration. She salil: "On Saturday evening about 0 o'clock I was belug driven to a public meeting In tho Huo Delsa, organized In favor ot tho candlilaturo of Rene Lacolnte. At the corner of that street nnd Huo Saute the carrlago was stopped, owing to road Improvements, and a man approached and uaked mc If I really was 'Gyp.' On receiving an alurmatlvo answer ho said that M. Ilarilllcr, tho new counselor for tho Uochcfoncart quarter, awaited me a few steps away and that he had nn Important communication to make. I got out of my carriage, following the man and walking about twenty stops down the Huo d'AlycBin. Suddenly my head was covored with a sack. I felt myself lifted ami car ried to a closed carriage, which drove off at full speed. "After a long Journey tho vehlelo stopped nnd tho sack was removed. I was unablo to descend. Threo men Burrounded me. Wo wero In an open country beforo a largo glided gntoway through which wo passed. Wo penetrated an Immense park, reaching tho chateau, which In my opinion must be situated at aobtit 500 metres altitude. Tho men did not spcik, but took mo to tho Moor and locked mo In n room containing a bed. As soon ns I was alone I opened tho window and scrutinized tho country. Ro neath tho chateau flowed a river and at pome" distance away was a railway viaduct, I resolved to flee. I mado a cord of tho bed clothes nnd lot myself down Into space. Tho cord being too short, I let myself fall Into the niattresa, which previously I had thrown out of tho window. I Injured my kneo and toro my dress. I crossed the park ns quickly as possible and wandered Into unknown parts In tho suburbs of Paris," Tho prefect of pollco Immediately opened an Inquiry on receiving the com mtrsalra's report, Sho gnvo an npproxlmato description of tho three men, but slnco her first statement sho has told a varying story nnd this leadslbo authorities to bellevo sho Is under a delusion. Moreover, the cabman who U said to have driven her to tho Huo d'AlyosIa cannot bo found and no carrlago iv as Been to stop. HI t ft t I M'P PTU 1 Ull)i,'1?T UjIAIIA Lnh SllJtli iMAKIVli.

IH 5.975 CATTLK As usual on the Inst day of tho week there were no cattle hero to speak of and 110110 wanted. However, tho few loads In the yards i-old nt nominally steady prices. It was practically n holiday In the yards. , . Tho receipts of cattle this week have been the largest for any week so far this month. At the same time the market has been In remarkably good condition. Pack ers havo seemingly wanted tho cattle and they havo been nctlvo buyers every day. Tho result Is that In spite of the unusually In ran ri.cf.lnlM the market has had an HP- ward tendency and for the week It Is safe to say that values on beer steers nre Tuny Ifl'rMRc higher uml In extreme cases 15(ij20o higher. Tho Improvement has been tho most marked on the Imndy weight or light cattle, or gocd quality, while bljr heavy cattle, for tho reason that they havo been In larger supply, have shown tho least gain. Cows and heifers hnve been good sellers all the week and tho market has been high enough to suit uny one on every day of the week. The supply on most days hns been modernte, so that with tho domnnd largo tho trade has been active practically all tho week, and on most days everything In the butchers' stock lino has been sold and weighed up ut tin early hour. Stockers and feeders have been In fair demand, and as the receipts have been small tho market has been In good shnno from start to finish, that Is, In good shapo for tho sellers. The prices paid havo been strong ns compared to tho way other kinds or cattle are selling. Stock heifers, which were selling extremely high, uro not bring lug finite so much money as they were, but they aro bringing enough. HOGS There was a good, active hog mar ket at this point today, all tho offerings changing hands at nn early hour. Trndo started out a trifle easier in tone than yesterday's market, but toward the ond, under tho lnllucnco of n good demand, prices firmed up nnd closed strong. Tho general quality of tho hogs received to day was not as good as yesterday, nnrt taking that fact Into consideration, today's market was about steady. There was nothing at all fancy on tho market, so that today's top Is 10c lower than yesterday's hlch nrlce. Tho long string sold at $5.15. with n few light loads going below that figure. 1110 choicer ana nenvier nogs brought JS.H'i or better. Tho hoir market has been In excentlonnlly good shape at this point all tho week. Tho general tendency or prices nan oeen uown ward, the week closing about 7c lower than tho previous week, but when comparisons 1110 mado with other murkets It Is seen that prices hero havo been the best of any plnco on the river. Not only that, but this market has been so close to Chicago that shipments have come from Iowa towns 111 largo numoera. Jiie nemaiiu, nowevcr, hn.i been sufficient to hnndlo tho receipts in good shapo and trading on most days was very active. The week started out with tho market nearly steady, tho average price being lc under Saturday, but on Tuesday buyers took ofT 11c. On Wednes day prices began to recover and have been gradually advanced until tho close of the week when nearly halt of tho loss was mado up.

HAVANA, May 13. Reeves nnd Reynolds, tho auditors of the postal department who havo been under surveillance, havo not been sent to Jail, but arc detained In their own rooms under the charge of n detective. They will not bo allowed to communicate further with any of tho employes of tho postofflco until nftcr tho Investigation of the postal frauds has been completed. Slnco their susptnslon Reeves and Rey nolds have been communicating freely with various suspected men nnd tho division felt that It would be better to prevent any fur ther communication of this kind. Carrydon Rich was tho man who confessed to a knowledge of many of the transactions which, In the oplnon of lawyers, Implicate others bcsldis Neely. Rich was Neely's partner In a number of business enterprises In Cuba and nlbo holds power of attorney for him. It was through Rich that $5,000 of now Issuo sttmps wero recovered nnd he hns not been arrested on account of tho valuable as- slstnnco ho Is now giving In unravelling tho plot. Further ho has ngreed to glvo evi dence when Neely Is arrested. Tho amount of the defalcation so far ns discovered nt present Is $30,000 during tbo year 1900 and $C9,000 during 1899. Of this amount $5,000 has been recovered, $2,000 de posited in a bank hero In Neely's name has been attached and $0,500 ho had In his pos session when arrested. A brickyard and n cocoa grove, tho valtio of which Is undecided, tho property of Neely, have been attached. Neely's bond with tho Fidelity Deposit company amounts to $30,000, nnd tho estimated bonds of oth ers against whom evidence Is accumulating will amount to from $15,000 to $20,000. The probability Is that the government will lose $30,000 or more. It Is reported that, the local postofflco Is short somo thousands 'of dollars. NEW YORK. May 13. John D. Ltndray, counsel for Neely In tho Cuban postofllcc matter, said today Neely was willing to go to Cuba If Governor Wood desired. How ever, ho admitted that both Neely and his counsel preferred to havo tho caso tried hero, whero It would como beforo tho fed eral courts of tho southern district of New York. "Everybody knows tho condition of the courts In Cuba," explained Lindsay. MUNCIB, Ind., May 13. 0. P. W. Neely was called upon today at 'the homo of his sister and the rciortcd confession of Hlch was read to him. Mr. Noely refused abso lutely to cnako a statement .further than to say that there must be a mistake. Rich -was one of Munclc's leading young business men, a son-in-law of Joseph A. Goddard, wholesale grocer, and for several years was a traveling salesman and also waB seJrctary of tho Indiana Traveling Men's Protective association. Rich has always been nn In timate friend of Neely's and ho secured his appointment In the Cuban postal department through Neely. They wero extensively as sociated together in business enterprlsca.

NEW GOLCONDA IN SIBERIA I?.Tif iHtlini front HiikmIii, Vested with tirnnt from Cntr, II011111I for' .Vo r III eiiNtc en Slliciin. NCW YORK, May 13. New gold fields rivaling In richness thu deposits of Capo Nome will bo opened to American miners if the expectations of tho members of tho Russian expedition, which arrived Inst night on tho Campanln, on Its way to North eastern Siberia, aro fulfilled. Vladlmar Wonlarlarsky, n colonel of tho Russian Imperial guard, obtained tho con cession of tho vast Siberian tract which tho expedition Is to examine. There were moro than forty applicants for tho grant, which had been sought with eagerness since tho discovery of gold on the American side. Hy means of court lullticnce, hacked by prcFsuro from other sources, Colonel Won larlarsky carried off the prlzo. Ho formed a company In Russia, which planned tho present expedition, headed by A. Ilogdano- vltch, a Russian engineer. It Is understood that n subsidiary company has been formed In Knglnnd, but secrecy Is maintained In regard to tho English and American Inter ests. Miners who havo visited tho Siberian coast by stealth havo reported that It is practically the same as tho Nome coast, consisting of a strip of beach, behind which lies a tundra or belt of gold-bearing sand, which has been thrown up by the action or tho waves and frozen. Many companies bnvo been rormed to work dredges nnd pumps off the coast of Cape Nome In order to draw up the sand where It reaches the beach. It Is expected that the operation of thoso appliances will bo prevented by tho beach miners and thnt apparatus In which largo capital has been Invested will bo Idle unless new fields nre opened to It. If the expedition to Siberia finds what Is expects the company will In vite the pumps and dredges to crosn to tho Siberian short nnd operate these on pay ment of a royalty. Hoolcy, tho English promoter, has nothing to do with the plan. Oeorgo D. Roberts, who Is n veteran California miner, will bo a member of the exploring party.

Tho Sunday qucfltlon at tho exposition has popped up again lu n condition athletic. Many of the most Impor tant International toutests have been fixed for Sunday nnd the participation ot the American athletes Is a matter of doubt un less tho events lu which they are entered arc changed to another day.
