BUSINESS IN THE WEST INCREASING Unfavorable Condition * 1'rcvnll In tlie.Soutli , Jlnt the Outlook Taken Altogether l rnttcrlng Will .Strriit Kcvloir Clearing llouoo Statement ! . Nnw YOIIK , April 15.-H. G. Dun's Weekly Ilovlow says : During all this year business news has been curiously sectional. Western cities nro gaining almost without oxceptlon , doing the largest business over known and Inclined to resent the suggestion that It Is any degree below expectations. TLo south has Icon ttrugcllng with unfavorable conditions , doIng - Ing less business than a year ago , nnd look. Ing In vain for n material change. The cast has been doing n largo business , rather less than a year ago on the whole , but especially loss than innny traders expected to do this year. This , with small prollts , makes the season disappointing to many. Tbo condi tions continue nmt nro reflected In raturns this week. Yet the volume of trade In tdo whole country hai been larger than In any previous year. The Iron trade Illustrates the sltuntlou. The output of furnaces on April 1 was 1U5,40'J tons ogalnst iyI)02 ; ! ) on March 1 , and 1111'IKl n year neo , when the grout j.trluo wns In progress. The reduction of the output of pig Iron \3 \ clearly necessary slnco the consumption - sumption has been 10,000 tons weekly below the output. The production hus oncn ' , ' 00,000 tons durlnc the quarter , antl the consump tion appears to bo greater than In any other quarter. A better demand is seen for pig nnd Dlatcs nt the cast , also at Chicago , nnd the pi no trade Is reviving at Pittsburg. Coal Is unchanged and dull. Copper Is waiting for the expected com bination of foreign producers ; tin U speeu- latlvcly strong nnd lead very llrm. Wool talcs urn largo for the season , nnd , stnco January 1 , hnvo boon 5 per cent greater than lusl year , the ilomaml for dry goods having oinowhal improved nnd Is bolter than was recently expected. In men's wear goods doubt about the future taste of the public still delays orders , but n strong consumption li clcarlu'c off stocks of jobbers. No\v from the Cities. News from the cities Is rather better ns to extent , cheering from the west , but some what less satisfactory as to the south. Iron mills nt Pittsburg arc all In operation , nnd Although prices nro weakening , the glass trade is encouraging , the hardware good and lumber quiet and rolled Irou weaker. Southern tvado at Cincinnati Is not satis factory , but machinery is active nud the car riage business is n little bolter. Detroit notes n coed Jobbing and manufac turing trade m some lines , bailer than last year. Chicago's mcrchundio sales considerably exceed last year's nnU fully cquU expecta tions. Koucipts of wheat and barley are double last year's ; of Hour , corn nna cattle an Increase of one-half , of cheosc one-third , with some increase in dressed beef , oats and rye , but a decrease in wool , butter , lard and cured meat ? . Trndo in Milwaukee is good : at St. Louis Quito strong , notwitnstnnding railway wash outs. outs.At At Omnhn trade Is quite active In grocer ies , snoes and hardware and steady in dry goods. Trndo at Kansas City is quiet , the weather interrupting nna prices for catilo being iho lowest of the year. Av Minneapolis and St. Paul trade is ex cellent , especially iu lumber , and at Denver fair. Business nt little Rock is depressed. At Memphis and Nnsbvlllo trade is dull , though somewhat Improved nt Montgomery ; rather Hat al Now Orlcaus and Blackening at tibvannnh. Speculative mancots have beeu tnoro ac tive , wheat falling ! % cents , wilti soles of 01,000,001) bushels hero , and corn 1 centwhile onts nro slightly higher. vVestern receipts of wheat continuo ul the rate of 1GOU,000 ! ) bushels weekly , with exports shrinking , but western receipts of corn have boon 00,000 bushels In three days and exports 750,000. Cotton exports liavu started up again , ex ceeding Inst year's , und the prices are ad vanced : 'a ' of a cent during the week , with an enormous speculative trado. No change is scon iu pork products , colTco Is L'5 cents weaker and oil 1 cent stroncer. The llnanclnl situation is remarkably free from unfavorable signs. Collections iu nearly all parts of the country are bettor than usual.UiouuU delay is seen at some points In tbo south , nnd the money markets nro everywhere amply supplied.

WALL STICEIJT I'OU A WKI'.K. Notlilnc of u StarUliifc- Nature Ilm Intcr- f.'rcil to Inlliifiico the jtlnrkut. NEW YOIIK , April 15.-Uradstroefi Weekly Wall Street llovlew layi ; The lMlnif of the Block excbftngo lor OooJ Friday , followed a * It U by B holiday In London which extends until next Tuctday , produced tbo u unl dis position to limit BpocuUtivo transaction * a.nd pave to the week's market a rather dull lone nnd temper. Ono of the principal Hebrew festivals , occurring cnrlr In tbo week , also tended to curtail activity both hero and In the markets abroad , At this moment the action of the I ondon markets to regard to American stocks Is regarded with more tbnn ordinary attention. The general belief In Wall street circles Is that If the Improving tcr.aency , which Is shown In that quarter , and which , In the past fortnight , has re sulted In limiting purchases by foreign houiics continues after thn Easter recess It would in all probability result In n higher range of prices all around. The fact that In splto of the drawbacks to any free display of activity the foreign clement continued to buy during the present week was thcrcforo reifurdea as very significant , and aided ma- , terlally In sustaining the bullish tone , which was qulto apparent In the operations of the market. Professional Influences naturally predominated and manipulation made itself felt. The easy condition of money is Justly regarded a * a very favorable - orablo clement in the situation nnd though some attention is paid to the loss on- couraglni : crop outlooir , noltbcr that nor such occurrences as the roportca renewal of ruto cutting by the trunk line railroads scotn to cxorclsa any positive effect upon share speculation. The announcement that the Klchniond Terminal plan would bccomo operative came too late to have any decided effect. In the active operations of the market in terest was almost entirely monopolized by the anthracite coil : stocks. The trunk line stocks were dull , the only feature being a rlso in Ontario & Western "on Thursday nnd the granger shares were steady without activity. The Industrial ! furnished some In terest. National Cordage had a rapid de crease , but was milled under manipulation. riimnvliil Nntrg , Nnw VOIIK , April 15. liar silver fflc1. KANSAS UITV , Mo. , April 13. Clearings , ! li.V : > , M.

Uovolatioiis inado In evidence on the state of the British army , pivon before the committee of Itiquiry , pre sided over by Lord \Vantajo , linvo boon the sensation of tliu week. The recommenda tions which the committee rccouUy pub lished were a series of dry and formal propo sitions , Indicating nothing of the extraordi nary statements of tno leading military chiefs. The Inttov were of auuh a nature as will lead to the most active agitation in Par liament as soon as the recess is over. A group of literary members of the House of Commons have already soon War Secretary Stanhope privately and extorted from him a promise that the government shall not ob struct a full discussion and subsequent re forms. Tlio generals examined concurred in the opinion that tiioro was hardly a single infantry battalion nt homo effective. Ad jutant General Wood declared that 50 per cent of the men encamped at Aldorshot wore unlit for camp duties ; that they could not even do a day's service , on account of their youth , ana that the only practice ho dared to imt on such nion was two hours carrying the pack or sentry duty. Wholly Unprepared. Tbo auUo of Cambridge , comtnander-m- chlof , endorsed the startllm ; statement , adding that if called upon to organize two army corps on short notice the authorities could not do so , and ho did notlhimr. it possi ble to mobilize ono corps composed of twonty-flvo battailous of mlautry. Lord Wolscloy , m answer to a question whether the battalions as they now stand would bo lit for homo defense , replied : "If wo wore Invaded tomorrow they would bo llttlo better than nothing. " Ho held the volunteer force was the important factor In defense. The dulto of Connaught said : "I am per fectly certain that if the batalliono under iny command lit Portsmouth were ordered to tervlco tomorrow om.-hnlf would not bo ul- lowed to go on account , of untltuess. " The main cause of the weakness of the homo battalions Is stated to bo deportations of their best men for foreign ana colonial service. Lord Wolscloy likened the homo forces to a squeezed lemon. The duke of Connaught held that grown IPCII would not Join the service owing to the fact that wearers of the queen's uniform nro socially ostracised , and also because soldiers are wantonly bur dened with excessive sentry duty. Ho told how , having noticed tbo numerous guards cmnloyoJ at Windsor castle on sentry duty , bo hail induced tbo queen to usk the author ities to rcduco the number and otherwivu to relieve thorn , but the aiitboritlos would not absent until strong nsossura was brought to hoar. The dulto of Connaught related a number of instances showing the contempt in which the bold tors' uniform is held. In once case drummers rctuscu to drink at a steamer bar beside a sergeant and In other cases hotels closed their rooms to members of thoguatdH. In rog.ird to methods of re form , thcro was n consensus of opinion that a substantial lncrer.se of the strength of homo battalions would como I rom liberal pay nnd better pensions. Views differed on the period of service , but agreed on the need of periodic training for reserve men. H Is now proved that In the volunteers reliance , in the event of war , U placed. iiiKliuiil'n : Iiilliiuiito Over tlio Khedive. Following his diplomatic success regarding the llnnan of investiture of the kbcdlvo , Lord Salisbury has clinched bis hold on the kbodlve by Inciting him to an open quarrel with the sultan , In response to the sultan's invitation to Constantinople the khudivo In timated the recall of Mnuhtlkar Pasha , tbo porto's delegate at Cairo , was llrst ausirablo. Mouhtikar 1'nsha made the mistake of de manding a change In tha Kiryptian ministry. The English minister , Sir Evelyn Huring , thereon pot the khodlvo to wire to tbo vultan that Mouhtikar L'ashn had arrogantly Inter fered in Egyptian affairs and ought to bo withdrawn. As a further proof of his ac ceptance of English dominance the kbcdlvo will bund his brother , Mubinot All , now at school In Vienna , to lluish his education In England. Communications passing between Mr. Glaciuouu and a committee In Midlothian have elicited from Mr. Gladstone tno declara tion ho considers the Newcastle program a definite- platform for the coming elections. If dissolution bo precipitated DO will bo pre pared to go on the Hold and add ross a series of meetings. If dissolution ba deferred bo still promise * a short stumping tour.

Dillon U Still In Polltlm. The efumril to the effect that John Dillon Is about to retlro from political lifo because of A quarrel with Mr. tlcnly Is ridiculed by members of the Irish party. The dispute be tween Mr. Dillon and the board of party or ganization l tending toward a settlement. The Irish parliament committee urge Messrs. Dillon , O'Urlcn and Sexton to servo on the board , and the majority of the board to meet the wUhes of the committee. There is n prospect that the cotton lockout will bo of short duration , A number of em ploy 03 nicdgod to the lookout continuo work ing , paying n line to the federation fund for their broach of Iho pledge. Others favor the operatives' offer to arbitrate. A confcronco of employers will dectdo the question as to arbitration on Tuesday. A majority insist upon a general stoppage , nnd iho position of workers already grave , will ho aggravated. The struggle Is unparalleled In the history of the cotton lrr.de. Thcro are 11.1,000 hands now lalo nud the number will bo Increased , by including dependent trades , to 150,000. Some of the workmen are fairly prepared to face Iho lock out , while others will starve. Mr. J. 13.

This change from the orig inal plan of touching O street at Nineteenth is made iu consequence of advantages gained in prices of property , representatives of the road asserting that the saving will amount to $50,000 or more. Judge llorgelt Nearly Itcrnrrrcil. The many friorAls of Judge Horgelt will bo glnd to learn that ho has nearly recovered entirely Irotn the effects of the wounds received - coivod by him about six weeks ago and was today able to appear on the streets. U will bo remembered that the judge was llrcd at twice by a half crazed Individual In the (10- ( Hco court some six weeks ago. A plcco'of one of tbo bullets fired at hltn lodged in the brain , whcro It has remained over since. For two weeks his lifo was despaired of , but to the surprise of his phvsioiati and the mem bers of his family ho began to recover. His Improvement has boon qulto rapid , and ho will soon bo able to resume his judicial duties. Comlnctor'n 1'leco of I.licit. Joseph M. Brennan , a conductor in the em ploy of the Lincoln Street Railway company , received notice last evening that ho had fallen boir to a legacy of $40,000 m casb left him by an undo in the east. Ho loft for the cast this morning to gather in his windfall. Mr. Bronuun has been a faithful omployo of the Street Kail way company for a number of years and bis piece of good fortune is con sidered well deserved by all who know him. Lively Time In Prospect. The excise board will meet at 2 o'clocit to morrow afternoon for the purpose of ap pointing the members of the noilco force for the onsutng year ana there linvo been a score or more of very lively campaigns among as many ambitious aspirants for n place on the forco. It is understood that Mayor Weir is likely to object to flvo or six of the appoint ments , and If he docs the contest that has existed between the mayor and the other members of tbo excise board for the past year will bo continued. According to a recent decision of the supreme court the excise board has full control of all appoint ments of the police force , but the mayor has the power of removal. There will be many important changes tomorrow. AHC ! for Heavy Damages. In JuJao Tibbott's court today the case of Joseph Boll against the Burlington Hallway company occupied the attention of tholury. Bell was In January , 1892 , an employe of the defendant company , working in the yards ut Newcastle as a switchman. Ho was injured while in the discharge of his regular duties to such an extent that ho thinks that nothing short of 815.000 will cover the damage. The defendant denies all liability in the case for the reason that the plaintiff wai a member of the Burlington Volunteer Holiof depart ment and that according to the terms of his membership the company was absolved from nil liaoillty Iu case of accident. A slmillar case is pending in the supreme court of the state , in which the Burlington maKcs the : amo defense. N Arbor Diiy 1'roclainntloii , Governor Boyd will issue no Arbor day proclamation for tbo reason that the observ ance of the day is made imperative by the statutes ot Nebraska , nnd iho day is llxcd by law. A proclamation setting apart a day is' entirely superfluous. No proclamation was issued last year and the day was as widely celebrated ns ever. This year the number of trees planted will bo reported by county olllcers to the bureau of industrial statistics and for the tlrst time in tlio history of the state it will bo possible lo approximate the number of trees that have been added to tbo forest area of the state by the operations of the Arbor day law.

In spite of this fact the county Is rapidly filling up with a good class of settlors. In view of the fact that ihcro uro no gr&ln markets in tbo county and that everything the farmer ralsos must bo hauled from forty to llftv miles to North Platte to reach a market , the cost of raising corn under thcso circumstances is an important matter. Commissioner Andres addressed n numborof Inquiries to farmers of that county nud ho has received replies from every ono applied to for information. The estimates ranpo all the way from $2.70 lo f 10.80. The lowest figures are for corn raised upon homestead lands. The average of all the estimates re ceived from the ontlro county Is $5,85. ' .
