DUN'S REVIEW OF THE WEEK
The Markets All Influenced by the Prospee
of an Increase In the Currency .
TRADE REPORTS QUITE FAVORABLE
K.\ ( ; < -it | In the KCK'OIIH ' AflVuteil by tlic-
DIlNsNMppI KloodH A KitllliiKOrr
in K\portH for tlio Month
Ki\v : YOIIK , April 2 , " . [ Special Tclcccrnn
toTinBin. : : ] H. O. Dun & Co.'s wccklj
review of tnulosays :
The markets are all Influenced by tho. pros
poets of an Increase In the currency based 01
silver. Slim-has advanced about ! i cents
per ounce , wheat ! ! J.f cents per bushel , oats
3 cents , coffee and oil % u cent each , cotton
n sixteenth , pork 2T > cents pot4 barrel and
stocks have been stronger. The average of
prices for all commodities rose over I per
cent from the 10th to the JMd , but has since
declined about half as much.
Trade reports this wrck nro favorable , ex
cepting from the region affected by 4ho
almost unprecedented Moods id the Mississippi
valley. Three of the trunk lines are inter
rupted and their losses will bo considerable.
Galveston tiiulo is dull , too much rain hav
ing affected crops tinfuvorablv , but real es
tate Is very active because of the prospect of
harbor improvement.
In Florida business is very dull and no en
couraging signs are perceived.
At all northern centers of trade the situa
tion is very satisfactory , the volume ot busi
ness is larger and collections are fairly prom
inent , and while the money market is every
where fairly supplied the demand at most
points is but moderate.
At Ioston fair weather has stimulated all
"
trado. At Chicago the increase In business
extends to nearly all brandies.At St. Louis
the distribution is fairly active and the north
western cities are all rejoieljif ? in excellent
crop prospects.
The iron and coal cities , Philadelphia anil
Plttsburg , make lo.-is encouraging reports , but
there also other branches of trade are fairly
active. The iron business is more hopeful in
tone nt Philadelphia , but at Plttsburg the de
cline in prices continues and at New York
southern iron of tlio lower grades is still
pressed'for sale at * 17.
Steel mils nro weaker and ? 33 Is'quotcd , but
bar iron is active though irregular and the
demand for plates and structural iron is bet
ter.
_ Statistics showing that the accumulation of
coal in llrst bands has been reduced since
March 1 have a helpful iniluence.
No improvement is seen in the woolen man
ufacture and dearer cotton docs liot help the
mills. .
The exports of grain continue large , not
withstanding the advance in prices and fur
nish the only reasonable exi.ui.sO for that ad
vance. In any event a large surplus of wheat
will remain on hand July 1.
Cotton receipts and exports.are both falling
far behind last year's.
No rcftson is perceived beyond speculative
activity for the advance in pork or in oats ,
but the belief that the currency will bo
greatly expanded tends Just now to render all
prices somewhat llutitknis.
The minor metals are steady with moro de
mand for lead at Ki.'J5 ' and tin a shade higher
at * ! ! ) . , ) .
The leather market has shown some specu
lative activity and while boots and shoes are
as low in prices iis they were a year ago and
profits are very narrow dealings are large
and the spring trade holds out remarkably.
"
The treasury has taken in during the "past
week $1,1)00,000 ) move than it has paid out.
The impression prevails that foreign capital
is moving in this direction again and that
purchasers of securities on foreign account
exceed sales.
The exports from New York for thrco
weeks have been 31 per cent below those of
the same weeks last year , though imports
here show an increase of 2'3 per cent. These
llgures indicate a heavy excess of imports
over exports fur the month , .but there
are no present symptoms of an outgo of
specie. The business failures occurring
throughout the country during the past seven
days number 21S as compared with a total of
21-1 last week. Per the corresponding week
of bust year the figures wcro 13111.
A Montreal dispatch to the Evening Post
says :
Tlio condition of general business through -
out the dominion is not considered by hankers
to bo at all satisfactory , and if the crops this
year should prove a failure the outlook will
bo gloomy. In fact it is well known that the
Hank of Montreal , which is to Canada what
the Hank of England is to Great Britain , is
warning merchants to curtail 'their imports.
The bank statement for March just issued is
not satisfactory , showing a further .enlarge
ment of mercantile loans. In . .August , ISbS ,
the aggregate discounts of the banks
amounted to ? 1.,0 < ) ( > ,1 > UO , - including bills
taken against the currency thqii being put"
out for the purchaso'Of the harvest , while at
present these advances roach SITT.OOO.IHX ) , an
increase of § > 0onnX , ( ) , ( > , the greater part of
whirh may bo attributed to the pressure fol
d-edit and not to an enlargement of the com
merce of the country. In the sumo period
the foreign balances have been heavily drawn
upon , over and above the exchange supplied
by the export tmdc , etc , It has been
necessary sin'o August , isss , to draw upon
the foreign balances of the banks to the ex
tent of more than $10,000,000 in order to pro
vide for remittances. "

An Kvcnt of Itnra Helen ! Ilk-
In tlio I'uulllo Ocean.
Abotit four n nil it half yearn ago the
people on mi island in the southern part
of the Tonga group , lu the I'aciilo , ob
served a torrlblu commotion far out at
aoa , says tlio Now York Sun. It seemed
to them that the waters woi-o boiling ,
and that smoke wan rising front the sur-
fnoo of the ocean. Ono of the volcanic
vents at tlio bottom of the sea had spread
its molten rock anil ashes over tlio ocean
bed until the growing mass reached the
mirfauc. The eruption lasted for several
days , and wlien It finally ceased a now
island had been milled to the Tonga
group , and It now boars tbo name of
Falcon Isliind.
It was the old story , but ono that lias
seldom had eyo-wltnesses to record. In
a similar manner tlio whole of Iceland
was roared above the sea within a rccont
geological ago by matter brought from
the bowels of tbo earlh. Hundreds of
lslaiidsalong llio line of volcanic action ,
stretching far across the Pacific , came
to light In exactly the same way as Fal
con Island. Tills latest of the volcanic
islands was the product of a very mod
erate eruption , and wo can imagine what
gigantic convulsions of nature attended
tlio birth of many an Island that is a
hundredfold larger than the now Httlo
speck in tbo Tonga group.
Those islands , which were reared
above the sea only by prodigious and
probably long continued eruptions , are
likely , oven in these latter days , to bo
tbo scene of tlio most stupendous volcanic
activity. The great eruption of Skaptar
a century ago is Iraliovcd to have cov
ered a part of Iceland and the adjoining
seas with a larger mass of lava than has
poured from Vesuvius and Aetna com
bined since tlio burial of Pompeii. It
killed ono-lifth of the population , de
stroyed tlio arable lands and frightened
tbo lisli from the adjacent waters , so
that for a long time tlio people were in
danger of starvation.
The volcanic vent that gave birth to
Httlo Falcon island is right in line with
tlio great chain of volcanic islands in
the Malay Archipelago , where most of
the stupendous eruptions of modern
times have occurred. It was in Simbowa ,
a Httlo east of Java , that an explosion
occurred sixty-eight years ago , audible
for nearly 1,000 miles , and BO completely
burying a whole province that only
twenty-six persons escaped in a popula .
tion pi 12,01)0. )
In October of last year Mr. J. .T. Lis
ter visited Falcon island , then four years
old , and'ho lias just reported tbo results
of his observations to llio Royal geo-
'grapical society of London. 'Tlio line
grained dust or askes , greenish gray in
color , of which the island is composed ,
is very friable , and tlio waves , dashing
against the now obstruction in their
way , Imvo torn oil' the edges and consid
erably reduced tlio island's area. Tlio
largest amount of material is gathered
on one side of the crater , through which
tlio tide of debris poured ; and tliero u
elilT 150 fcot _ high , fronts tlio sea. In
land the cliff slopes gently down until it
reaches tbo level of tlio tongue of land ,
about a milo in length , and onlv ton or
twelve feet above high tide , wliicli forms
tlio rest of the island. It is a bare , dark
heap of ashes which tlio ocean rollers
are doing their best to bury out of sight
beneath tlio sea. As Mr. Lister walked
over the hillside tliero was a distant
odor of sulphur in the air , and the dis
tant parts of tlio island were seen
through a thin , blue lia/.o.

Small shopkeepers in London often
complain of being ruined by the monster
establishments which sell everything
and monopolize the trade formerly shared
by their minor neighbors. Tlio sumo
.complaint is raised in Paris , but tlio
Froneh government now propose to lay
additional license duties on big shops , seas
-as to restrict their operations and allow
small traders a fair chance.
