Sustained heavy shipments through the banks , an absence of large fail ures , gratifying crop reports and strengthening demands for factory out- puts and general merchandise reflect the heavy position which trade now occupies. High cost is responsible for / a smaller outgo of breadstuffs , but for- wardings of iron and steel , mine and forest products , raw materials for early / conversion and staple wares exhibit considerable gain. There is also very heavy passenger travel and continued recovery in the earnings of Chicapo steam roads. While vessel capacity is not yet wholly employed , lake traffic is much better than ai { his time last year and rates obtained average higher.

Further developments in the promin ent industries testify to confidence in i the outlook. New plans announced in.I I clude extensive additions to capacity at Gary and Indiana Harbor. Other enterprises assure large outlays for terminals , bridges and track elevation. Building construction progresses with the fine weather and there is remark- able consumption of structural mate- rials of all kinds and increasing re- quests for lumber , brick , stone and cement. Bank clearings , $252,163,481 , exceed those of the corresponding week in 1908 by 17.6 per cent , and compare with $268,404,391 in ' 1907. Failures re ported In the Chicago district number twenty , against twenty-three last week , twenty-five in 1908 and twenty-five in 1907. Those with liabilities over $5,000 number three , against five last week , six in 1908 and five In 1907. - Dun'9 Weekly Review of Trade. . . - NEW YORK. Future trade continues good ; conn dence is unimpaired. Buyers are ar- riving in the larger markets. Cereal crop reports , despite rains in some winter wheat and corn growing sec- , tions , are encouraging. Country trade promises to be heavy on supplies in I market Industrial lines are becoming more active , calls for harvest hands absorb a large part of the floating sup ply of labor and the long-drawn out discussion regarding tariff matters promises to be soon ended. On the other hand , the general situation is not without its drawbacks. Thus cool er rainy weather has retarded retail trade over a goodly part of the coun- try , particularly in the central West , 1 South and Southwest , where floods ' - also deterred railway traffic and ha ti , , , hayealso - ' " \ \ injured crops and country trade. At " " ' the same time , clearance sales are " \ + pretty general and these tend to stim- t ? ' \ ulate business where normal weather conditions prevail. In wholesale and Jobbing lines current trade Is a mid ' summer character and re-orders are " comparatively light. Moreover , the high prices that have prevailed for raw material suggest small profits on many manufactured articles. Collec 4 tions range from poor to fair , though there are special lines which report prompt settlement. Business failures in the United States for the week ending with July 8 were 1S2 , against 213 last week , 246 the same week of 1908 , 185 in 1907 , 143 in 1906 ! ) and 166 in 1905 , , . The week's failures in Canada number 27 , vyhich ' compares with 22 last week and 39 in the like week of 1908. - Brad- i street's.

Minneapolis Journal. c STEAMERS COLLIDE ; 14 DROWN. Ore Freighter Sinks in Three Min- utes-Crashes with New Boat. Three minutes after the steel steam- ers Isaac M. : Scott and John B. Cowle had collided in Lake Superior early Monday mOIning ; , about a mile and a half off Whitefish point lighthouse , the Cowle had gone to the bottom in ' - ' fifty fathoms of water , carrying with it fourteen members of its crew. The Scott , although badly damaged about the bows , put -back to Sault Ste. Marie , where it arrived in the afternoon with part of the crew of the CowIe. A heavy fog was responsible for the collisioon. The Scott , a new boat on its maiden trip to the head of the lakes , had just passed the light at Whitefish point and straightened out its course up the lake when suddenly the John B. Cowle loomed up through the fog broadside on to the Scott and only a few feet away. The Cowle was downbound with 8,000 tons of iron ore in the hold. The ships were so close that it was said to be impossible to avoid a col lision and the Scott crashed into the side of the heavily laden CowIe. For fifteen feet the bow of the Scott pene- trated the side of the Cowle. Tons of water rushed into the great opening. , Immediately after the collision a line was thrown from the deck of the Scott to the forward deck of the Cowle and three members of the crew es caped to the deck of the upbound boat by this means. The rest of the crew who were saved jumped from the sinking steamer into the lake , some without life preservers , and were pick- ed up by the Scott and the steamer , Goodyear , which was a short distance astern of the Scott when the collision happened. Capt. Rogers , of the Cowle , was one of those who were rescued by the Goodyear. QB8 $ OF ; z " wwww The St. Paul Y. M. C. A. have open- . ed an outdoor gymnasium. The annual rowing races between Yale and Harvard on the Thames were -won by the crews of Harvard. Cornell won on the Hudson. The base ball team of the University of Wisconsin has about decided to abandon the project of visiting Japan as had been planned. . Minneapolis made it four straight over Indianapolis for the series by taking th6 last game on the home grounds in the twelfth inning , 4-3. The spring meeting of the Montreal : Jockey Club was a huge success this year. At the closing events a major- ity of the finishds were close and ex citing. The frequent rains have retarded training throughout the country , and as a result the trotters and pacers are at 'least three weeks late in their "preps" for the races. Lou Dillon is creating quite a stir on the Berlin tracks. After being in retirement for nearly four years she proves that she has lost none of her old-time speed. The record she now makes is 2:02 3-5. A novel experiment has been tried In Cincinnati. It has been demonstrated that base ball can be successfully played by electric light President Her- mann , of the National Base Ball Com- mission pronounced the attempt a suc- cess. cess.The - The New Zealand rower , R. Arnst , defeated W. Webb , in a contest on the Wanganui River , N. Z. , which victory allows him to retain the sculling cham- pionship of the world.

The Chicago Automobile Club have sustained losses amounting to $20,000' as a result of the Crown Point meet , and they have decided to drop auto races from the schedule for 1910. if the races are given they will be con- ducted on vastly different lines \ . V. I ' BIG COUNTERFEITING PLOT. Secret Service 3Ien Say Gang1 ; Has Operated for Years. Y/hat the secret officers declare is an international counterfeiting plot with agents throughout Italy and the United States was revealed the other day when operatives arrested two Italian women and two Italian men in Chicago. A fifth arrest is expected. The officers refuse to divulge the names of the prisoners. According to the secret service men the gang has been operating in this country for four years. The plant where the coun- terfeits are made is in Italy , they de- clare , and is und.er the eye of the Ital- ian police. The operatives say thou- sands of dollars of bogus $5 and $10 sil ver certificates have been passed which , were so well made that even experts had difficulty in detecting them. Se- cret Service Officer Ritchie recently lo- cated members of the gang at Warren. Mass. : , it is said , but made no arrests , hoping by fallowing them to locate the plant. The Italian police later discov- ered the plant in Italy. NAGEL OUSTS 100 EMPLOYES. Commerce and Labor Secretary B'inda " \heIU liiclliciunt. The greatest "shake-up" that has ever occurred In the personnel of the Department of Commerce and Labor in Washington took place Monday , when approximately 100 employes wero reduced and the resignation of about ten others accepted. This ac- tion was taken by Secretary Nagel as the result of an investigation into the "efficiency record" of the employes. The reductions were made it is stated , because the employes were found to have "loafed on the job , " while those allowed to resign were found to be in- efficient. The secretary's determina- tion to inject new life into his depart ment prompted the radical step. Fur- ther dismissals are to be made and w resignations asked for , it was intimat- ed , vas soon as Secretary Nagel com- pletes his examination of the efficiency report. Many of the clerks will re ceive promotions as a result of these changes. FIGHT FOB THE PENNANTS. , Standing of Clubs In the Principal Base Ball Lea "Ues. NATIONAL LEAGUE. W. L. W. L.

One of the most remarkable cele- brations in * the history of the country was that held in northern New York , where the tercentenary of the discov ery of Lake Champlain by : Samuel De Champlain , the French explorer , was fittingly observed. The Dominion of Canada was represented by several high officials ; the United States by President Taft ; New York by Gov. Hughes , Vermont by Gov. Prouty and France and Great Britain by their ambassadors . Jusserand and Hon. , James Brice. The fete commenced at Burlington , Vt. . with special religious observance. The celebration proper began at Crown Point , Monday. There are lo cated forts and redoubts which loom- ed large in the history of the French and Indian war and the American revolution. During the week at vari- ous points about Lake Champlain there were scheduled 23 pageants or ta bleau , 9 representing the history of the Iroquois confederacy down to the arrival of the French in this section . , . . . . . . . . - - - - - - - - - - of the country and IB illustrating the religious ceremonies and social cus- toms of the Iroquois and the Algon- . quins in war and peace. The most interesting and gorgeous of the page- ants were the t\ro depicting the dis - covery of the lake by Champlain and the battle between the Huron-Algon- quin allies and the fighting Iroquois in which the explorer had a hand. Canadian and American Indians , de- scendants of the warriors who fought with and against the great French ex- plorer took part in these tableaux. Great interest attached to Fort Ti- conderoga , which was captured dur- ing the revolution by Col. Ethan Allen and his Green Mountain boys. The . . fort is being reconstructed at a cost of $500,000 by Mrs. Stephen H. : P. Pell , daughter of Colonel Robert M. Thomp- son , of New York , who Is so deeply interested in the patriotic history of . the section that he is giving the monoy for the reconstruction of the fort. The west barracks were com- pleted in time for the celebration. Plattsburg's day was celebrated Wednesday. Near this city Benedict Arnold fought and lost ; the first naval action of the revolution. His flagship , the Royal Savage , has been lying ; where she sank in that fight for 133 years. The barge Revenge , one of Arnold's fleet , had been raised and was in the pageant. On Thursday the center of attraction was at Burling- ton , Vt. , where many delightful histo- rical pageants were enacted. . BLAST KILLS AT CHURCH. . Bomb : for Fireworks Display Ends Religious Fete with Tragedy. Three persons were killed and a panic among the several thousand per- sons in attendance ensued when a bomb was exploded at a celebration of the Holy Rosary Catholic Church in Kansas City. One of the parishioners constructed the bomb b'y filling a sec- tion of gas pipe and plugging up one end. The crowd witnessing the fire works surged about him when he ig nited the fuse. Pieces of pipe flew in all directions , striking the three victims and stunning two policemen. Windows in the church adjoining the lot where the celebration was held and in many houses were broken. . . . . MAY BE WAR ? Boundary Dispute BctTveen Peru and Bolivia Cause of Trouble. It is believed that war between Peru and Bolivia is imminent because of the tlisorders at La Paz following the decision handed down by Argen tina in the boundary dispute between the two other countries. The admiral ty announces that Chile will remain neutral , but is preparing to send war- ships to protect Chilean interests.

In Lincoln , Neb. , the Superior Court : handed down a decision declaring the Donohoe nonpartisan judiciary elec I tion law invalid. Te decree says : "Tho- majority of the court holding that the act is void , the judgment of the District Court is affirmed. " This means that the election of judges of the Supreme Court , District courts , re- gents of the State University , county judges , and county superintendents by use of a separate ballot , cannot take place. The old lav. will continue to , hold. The chief objection of the court was to the provision requiring that for 1,000 names to be on a petition for judge , not more than 500 of whicls could come from one county. They declared that it was a hindrance to- the free exercise of the' franchise , and was repugnant to the constitution of - the State. Four of the six members- sitting believed this provision formed the chief reason for the passage , and thus invalidated the whole act. The entire court declared the provision de- nying the right of party conventions to indorse candidates for the offices af . fected by the act was without force , and void. U. S.
