working. This business view, when once

t'nrovera Fraud.
Although he has been at work but a few
months Rev Father Schell, who Is now
'abated here, has unearthed a- humbei of
very unstivory frauds. Already he has
compelled several speculators to return to
ttje "buncoed" Indians their property and
tgvei them usurious Interest. One case this
Loot week in typical of the priest's methods,
jijne of tho well known speculators of the
fiJiir towns had an aooount agnlnst one of
thf- Indians for $417: how this was. secured

p psr check was given out It was for only

TWn gave a mortgage on a team of horse,
till mortgage, as all others given by In
dians, are on demand. The Indian who

fyan the one in whose debt he wan. This

the mortgaged team, compelled the red to

Father Schell was apprised of this. He
had a session with the speculatftr and gave
hjrn forty-eight hours to return the team

was returned. . The speculators are In a

NEW TORK, June 17. Summarlxrnf th
commercial situation, R. O. Dun Co. to
morrow will say:
Industry suffers from an epidemic of ul
tra conservatism, emanating- apparently
from the theory that a season of depres
sion must come every ten yrars, white tne ,
coincidence of a presidential election fur
nishes another precedent. As a result,
Stocks of merchandise havs been reduced,
railway trarrlo Is lessened, preparations for
future business are curtailed and less
money la distributed in the lorm of wages,
while those having capital to Invest con
line their attention to the highest classes
of bonds or hold back for sull lower se
curity pvice
All these faotors have combined to pro
duce a reaction entirely out of proportion
te the natural readjustment that waa
really started by abnormally high prices of
raw materials snd other excessive costs of
production resulting la accumulation of
goods that could not be aold at a profit. Re
trenchment has made considerable prog
ress, wage earners as a rule recognising
the Importance of accepting reductions In
pay. 'iljo lake strike has been adjusted,
leaving Utile friction between employer
and employe.
As tha season advances the crop outlook
Improves and there Is no fundamental
weakness In the nation's financial or com
mercial position. Evidences of contraction
In business are numerous, however, railway
earnings thus far avatluble for May show
ing a loss of 7.1 per cent, as compared with
lUoj, and bank exchanges at New York for
the laat week lost .4 per cent, yet at
other leading cities there was a small av
erage Increase of .8 per cent.
Thus far the railways have ordered little
rolling stock or supplies and the Inquiry
for structural steel Is particularly disap
pointing In view of the fact that butidlng
plans filed during May were more numer
ous than Inst year. As to vslue of con
templated work there wer notablo gains
In Brooklyn, Pittsburg Indianapolis and
Minneapolis, offset by heavy decrepses In
New York. Milwaukee, Cincinnati, New Or
leans and Detroit. Prices of minor metals
are lower and demands small except that
exports of copper continue liberal.
Considering the favorable official and
private crop reports, wheat has ruled re
markably Arm, the high price having a
natural effect on foreign demand. In fact
It was reported that exporters were re
selling wheat atDuluth. Stocks will be
low when the new crop Is harvested and
domestic consumption has absorbed offer
ings despite comparative quiet of late at
northwestern mills. Receipts at primary
markets were 1.893,190 bushels, against
1,982, (W0 In the same weeks laat year, while
exports from all ports of the United Btntfs,
flour Included, amounted to 1,871.804 bush
els, compared with 2,808,002 bushels a year
ago.
Corn has reacted somewhat from best
prices, arrivals of 4.273.(17 bushels st west
ern cities exceeding the receipts of 2.220,083

BUSINESS SHOWS IMPROVEMENT
Crops and End of Ttenp on Lakes
Amonar Vavorabl Factors.
NEW YORK, June 17. Bradstreet's, re
viewing the state of trade, will say to
morrow: Favorable features this week are the fur
ther improvement shown In leading crops
and the ending of the tie-up on th great
lakes. Wheat,- oats and cotton have Im
proved, but corn Is still backward owing
to the cool weather. General trade and
industry have remained quiet and may be
said to have "marked time." The notable
underlying future of the entire situation
Is the feeling that with an average crop
of wheat and large yields of the other ce
reals and of cotton now In prospect, a good
fall and winter business is to be looked
for.
Railway earnings reflect current quietness
In business and the decreases of per cent
of gross In May and of per cent in April
net, indicated last week, are confirmed by
fuller details. Transportation business
generally Is b-tter than In 1902. Bank cleir
Ings, a more moderate reflection of current
business, show an enlargement over last
week, but grand totals will show recessions
from a year ago, The cross current of
ebb and now noted at different cities, how
ever, may possibly be significant of a
change In the tide. Money continues easy
and stock activity Is largely professional.
Crop advices to Bradstreet's tell malnlj
of Improvement. This is most noticeable
In winter wheat, harvesting of which has
become general In the southwest and In
California. Spring wheat le also making
progress along satisfactory lines. An aver
age orop of wheat has been raised in Texas,
but the yield In California will be below
the average, owing- to damage by dry
winds. The stand of corn Is rood, but the
weather Is too cool for the best growth.
The California grrtpe and raisin crop will
be verv larar snd southern Beaches nrom-
ise a heavy yield. Eastern vegetable and
fruit crops are reported injured by back
ward weather. The southern oats crop,
now being harvested, was Injured by dry
weather in May.
Heports as to the cotton crop are almost
universally favorable, the only exception
being noted in Arkansas, where a heavy
reduction Is probable beoause of over
flowed lands. The Texas crop Is growing
finely, first bales being reported nearly a
month ahead of the usual time. The erop
in the lower Mississippi valley Is mak
ing good progress and In Georgia and Ala
bama Is reported growing finely.
The leading Industries gnrrally display
quietness. Iron and steel arc . dull and
Droductloa Is belnK curtailed, but Drli-e
weakness Is less manifest, poxsibly because
large consumers are me King inquiries and,
with a clearer crop and political outlook,
will Drobably buy liberally at th conced-
edly close prices for raw material. The
ending of the late strike has brought about
a resumption ot ore shipments down and
ot eoal up. Antnracite coal Is In exception,
ally xood demand for this time of the vear.
but bituminous Is dull and weak. The
lumber trade Is rather irregular, being

WASHINGTON, June 17.-In a cablegram
today to the State department Consul Gen
eral nummary at Tansier. Indicated that
th bandit Ralsoull. owing to' the sub
serviency of the Moorish ofTiellas, nsa ex
sggerated hie demands to a point where
th hava haonm. ridiculous. It lS QUltS
certain that this government will not com
ply with any of th demands mat reiaie
to Itself and It cannot consistently require
the sultan to do as Ralsoull asks.
It .'s admitted that if the bandit chief
means to carry out his threat the cap
tives, Ferdlcarls and Varley, are In great
peril.' Even their live, however, are not
regarded as a sufficient stake to warrant
this government in establishing the dan
gerous precedent that would follow ths
granting of the demands of Ralsoull, as
th strong temptation thus offered to th
lawless tribesmen of Morocco no foreign
ers there would be safe against kidnaping.
All that can now be done la to awa.lt th
outcome of th present negotiations, hop
ing that Ralsoull will abate his demands,
and make Mir that he learns through ths
Moorish government that his own life will
be demanded by this government If he
executes his Captives.

I THE STORY OF
Amalgamated Goppor
A PERSONAL WORD BY THOMAS W. LAWSON AND A
STATEMENT BY THE PUBLISHERS OF
(werjbodys
rXT
Tho Personal Word bytVlr. LovVson
Personally I know that one hundred millions of dollar wer
lost, thirty men committed suicide, and twenty previously reputa
ble citizens went to the peuiteutiary, directly because of Amal
gamated. It was largely because of my efforts that the foundation of
Amalgamated was successfully laid. It was created because of
my work. It was because of what I stood for, because I had tha,
public's confidence and. because my promises had been kept that,
the plain people invested two hundred million dollars of their say-,
ings, and it was because of trickery and broken promises that
the public lost the enormous sums they did. t
My motives for writing the Story of Amalgamated are mani
fold: I hare unwittingly been made the instrument by which
thousands upon thousands of investors In America and Europe
have been plundered. I wish them to know my position as to the
past, that they may acquit me of intentional wrong-doing; as to
the present, that they may know that I am doing all in my power
to right the wrongs that have been committed; and as to the
future, that they masr see how I propose to compel restitution. ;
riTOMAS W. LAWSON.
A Statement by the Publishers of
Everybody's Magazine
In the articles by Mr. Lawson, beginning in the July num
ber, under the caption of "Frenzied Finance, The Story of Amalga
mated," we have a narrative from Mr. Lawson's own lips, how, in
the last few years, he has seen millions of dollars won without
right, and thousands of men ruined. It is a story of financial
tragedy of today. '
In the great financial happenings of recent years story tellers
have given their version; political economists their theories; re
formers their pictures; and historians their tablets. For the first
time in the history of High Finance we have the Iligh Priest tell
it as it happened, and it is for Everybody's Magazine to publish
"the cold-blooded facts," for Mr. Lawson has pledged himself to
tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.
