NEW YORK , June 30. U. (3. Dun & Co.'s Weekly Review of Trade wlir say : Failures for the second Quarter have been 2.0SO In number against 3,03 : , last year , liabilities $20.259 OOU against $36.602,252 last year nnd for the first half of 1899 failures were 1,852 against 6,766 last year , with lia bilities of $ l ! > ,711,000 against $71,246,783 last year. Nearly half of the Juno liabilities are duo to one failure , not strictly commercial , co'.crlng sonic banking concerns , ft promoter nnd a railway equipment company , for $ .V 138,000 , In essential features a roan nnd trust concern. With It banking failures amount to $6,436,000 for the half year , leaving for commercial failures $42,27u,053 against $04- 411,639 la t year , The demand for Iron nnd steel seems to have no limit. Scarcity of pig has ralced the prlco $1 per ton for local coke at Chicago , $1,10 to $19.75 for Bessemer at Plttsburg and $1.75 to $17.75 for grey forge nnd 75 cents to $111.75 for anthracite No. 1 at Phil adelphia , with sonic Iron selling above these nuotat'ons ' at all points for early delivery. Efforts 'o gtt foreign contracts out of the way are met by fresh orders from Europe at last week's prices. Some furnaces have started with contracts for their whole year's product , but others nro yet delayed. Prices of pig average higher than at any time slnco February , 1S90 , nnd prices of finished products ulyuw fnan slno March 1891. Orricrn Cannot lie Klllcil. Billets arc hardly obtainable , bar and plato ordera are refused quite largely becnuso works arc overcrowded , sheet mills have much stronger demand at the west , but less at the east nnd structural works report 26- 000 tons required In two new eastern con tracts. The continuing demand in spite of rising prices astonishes everybody. Coke ovens , 17,453 at work , put out for the week 181,872 tons , the heaviest week's work ever known at Connellsvllle. Tin Is stronger at 26 ccnte , but lead Is dull with hope of end to the Cororado strike. Another Industry passes all records , boot and shoe shipments from the cast , 400.Y73 cases , exceeding those of any month In many years for four weeks nnd uemands for cpecdy delivery show enormous distribution In nil directions. New orders are largo and several months ahead. Wool sales , 36,179,192 pounds , of which 29,265,800 were domestic , reveal a specula tion scarcely less obtrusive 'h n In 1897 , when 41,197,000 poumli' were sold In the same weeks , against 23,768,200 In 1892 when the mill's were well employed. Cotton mills are doing well In spite of the fall In cotton , as the demand gives them enough to do at current prices and weak spoU In the trade are defended by the agreement between Fall Hlvcr mills. Ilenvy Ueccliitu of Whent. Wheat receipts at the west In four weeks have been 21,653,356 bushels against 4,111,625 bushels last year. Beyond question the farmers and the speculators and elevator owners in farming regions believe that about SO cents here Is as much as the old wheat will fetch , although exports bave been for four weeks 8,949.838 bushels from Atlantic ports against 15,012,687 last year and 2,445- 749 from Pacific ports against 1,829i09 last year. It Is not surprising that with such receipts the price has dropped 1V4 cents and corn nrso fell 2 cents , with exports In four weeks 11,485,596 bushels against 12- 07b,703 last year. The cotton market to also weak , with heavy receipts and good crop prospects and declined a sixteenth. Failures for the week have been 181 in the United States against 254 last year nnd 22 in Canada against 15 last year. HHADSTIIEET'S REVIEW OP TRADE. Dnnlncmi Rrluk In Spite of I > ciiro sInW Influence of Hot AVcntlicr. NEW YORK , June 30. Bradstreefs to morrow will say : Though , seasonably quieter In many lines , the strength of the general business situa tion remains apparently unabated and the half year closes with the commercial and financial community manifesting a tone of cheerful confidence regarding the outlook for the lost half of 1899. In the volume of business done the first half of 1899 will rank higher than hitherto expected , and a notable rise In prices which was such a feature of the past spring hr.s done much to reconcile itraders to the admittedly small margins of profits which modern business operations tend toward making permanent. It might be odded that staple prices today are In a majority of Instances well above quotations ruling for some years past , the general level , In fact , being the highest since In 1893. In some instances of course , notably In Iron and steel , recent advances have brought the level of prices well above anything reported since 1896. though It is to be remarked that much of the business douo In that Industry this spring was at old levels , the most sanguine observers in this line having failed to accurately gauge the real proportions of the late advances. That the transportation Interests have shared to a largo degree In the business re sulting from several years of largo crops and active demand -proved - by the current go'od returns , the best probably reported so far this year , and Indicating a progressive gain over all previous records for the six months notwithstanding the steadily lowerIng - Ing of rates of transportation. There Is little in the Immediate outlook that can bo construed as unfavorable. The Iron trade , having finished the most eventful half year In Its history and moiSt of its contracts secured at the ojd low prices , faces a very good outlook for the balance of the year at prices which guarantee largo profits , providing adequate supplies of raw and partly manufactured materials can bo secured. It is not unreasonable to look for some check. In fact , to business In the metal consuming industries , owing to the scarcity jot these materials , Ono of the latest Instances - stances of this cited Is the serious delay re- ported to the shipbuilding Industry , owing to the scarcity of steel plates. The labor situation has been ono of the most satisfactory features of the half year's business , voluntary advances having raised the compensation of thousands of operatives and labor troubles being conspicuous by their absence till toward the end of the period of the review , when failure to agree on hours In the Colorado smelting Industry and In tin plato manufacturing rendered a largo number of workmen Idle , In the case of the latter Industry , however , the sunpen- filon , It Is hoped , will not exceed the usual summer shut down. In agricultural lines the outlook , though somewhat Irregular , Is In the main favor able. The smaller Yield of winter wheat i uecms at the present moment likely to be partly made up for by an Increased yield of corn , nnd spring wheat prospects , though Impaired somewhat by too much ruin , are I regarded as encouraging. Good weather throughout the country has caused a rathei- better outturn In winter wheat and the gen. cral rains throughout the south have helped the cotton croo situation , while rice and sugar have Improved. The closing week of the half year finds special strength and activity In Iron , lum- her and wool and woolen goods , the latter Industry having at latt apparently begun to share In the prevailing prosperity A fea- turo cf Interest In this connection Is the advancing prices of fine wools abroad , which seems to insure , temporarily at least a foreign market for considerable high grade domestic wool Manufactured fabrics share In this strength , but manufacturers are not credited with having large stocks of raw material. Confidence In fall trade U evl- i denced by reports coming from many markets - ! ' kets of good orders already booked , the vol. ' umo of such business already done varying > i from 10 to 30 per cent In excess of last year , which It may be recalled was quite a | satisfactory one In this respect. i Wheat. Including flour shipments for the week aggregate 3,263,093 bushels against I ' 746.718 bushels last week. 4.716.401 bushel * ' in the corresponding week of 1S9S , 2,778,848 bushels in 1897. 2.601.06 bushels In 1896 , anil 2.007,001 bushels In 1S95.

Sliei'nlntloii tn Inrne Kttrnt I'l-o- frNtlonnl Still Slum * MrriiK < l > > NEW YORK , June -llradstreet's Fi nancial Ileview tomorrow will sny Although the transactions at tlie dtock ex > change were not largo this week's market has been far from dull. Nor while the spec ulation has been to a very large extent pro fessional and manipulative In origin h.u It lacked In decided features of strength. There has , In fact , been evidences of renewed pub lic buying and the large purchases o ! Amer ican stocks In London and foreign takings In our on n market have been a notable feature. The latter , Indeed , were RUfllclent to cause a drop In exchange rates and for a time to create n bcll t that the gold export movement was at an end. This Idea was not substantiated , ax the Inducements still of fered by the Bank of England and 1'arls and Berlin markets resulted In gold ship ments this week to the amount of $6,000,000 , raising the amount since the movement be gan early in June to $18.000,000. Neither the effect of the gofd exports nor the extraordinary amount of July In terest and dividend disbursements leemed , however , to affect the money market tin- favorably The only result of unavoidable disturbance of loans Incident to the mat ter was a temporary advance In call loans rates of Thursday and Friday at the banks and as high as 10 to 12 per cent for balan-cs on the stnck exchange. The street In fact was apparently Impressed by the prospect of ease In money nnd by the accompanying outlook for an extremely large drm.tud for Incoming securities growing out of the de sire to reinvest in the July payments. It Is recognized that the actual demand from rnirroad sources hat , been to a "crt.iln ex tent anticipated. Speculative Interest , however , seemed to consider It lomethlng to discount nnd the activity of manipulative bulls may be traced not only to the fact that n considerable short account had grown up which could bo forced to cover , but to a disposition to take advantage of the pros pective increase In the public's Vartlcliutlon I in the market. i The fact that much better accounts of the progress of the crops nro now beard was naturally calculated to diminish the bearish feeling which the street had developed In the last month. The market , however , was much less effective ns a Hpccuf.Ulve factor than the prospect of Important deals in volving the Vanderbllt railroad properties Humors that something of this kind would come out had been heard for several weeks past and itwis thought that the declara tion of the semi-annual dividend by th di rectors of the Lake Shore and other 'com panies would Involve agreeable surprises. But neither of the semi-annual statements nor the dividends of the Vamlerbilt com panies bore out such anticipations and the speculation was about to fair back on the old story of a probable amalgamation of the Union Pacific with the Vanderbllt system. At this Juncture came the statement that propositions for the acquisition of the Bos ton & Albany by the New York Central had been formulated and practically agreed upon. The absence of explicit denials seemed Mg- nlllcant and gave support to the rumors of Increased dividend payments bv the Onnha and of further Important deals under Van derbllt auspices and stimulated a buying movement In that group of stocks , with rapid advances In New York Central and Its companions. London's purchases con tributed effectively to this movement , the action of the foreign market being the more significant because the Transvaal complica tions , the sensitive condition of the Berlin and London money markets and other cir cumstances resulted In heavy and dull speculative conditions abroad , apart from the American department. _ Finnic of MldNiiiiniier Ciirnlvnl. MILWAUKEE , June 30. A fitting finale to Milwaukee's great midsummer carnival was the gorgeous pageant of twenty floats which moved from the secret "den" on 'ho outskirts of the city down town and through the principal streets. The floats rivaled in richness anything ever seen In the west. The eubjccts of the floats embraced the na ture of the elements and stories of myth and fable. The figures on the floats were represented by the Turners' society of Mlf- waukee. Xeiv Trlnl for CHICAGO , June 30. The work of secur ing a new jurv to try August A. Becker for the nileged murder of his wife was begun today. Judge Stein overruled the motion to discharge the defendant because of the fault In the Judgment naming "Elizabeth Becker" Instead of "Thercse Becker" as the woman murdered. Becker believes that the blunder In the paper will eventually result In his escape. A FARMER'S STORY. I am a farmer , forty-five years old , and used to be sick most of the time. My nostrils would stop up , and there was an offensive discharge from my nose. I couldn't smell very well , and was frequently bothered with nose bleed. I felt worse when the weather was cold and damp. I called this Catarrh. I use to have sour stomach too , and I felt bloated after eating. I belched a good deal. My tongue was coated a light brown , and my mouth tasted badly in the morning. I called this Dyspepsia. And then my liver was out of order. I had a sort of a yellow look on my skin. I was so cross about the house that my wife hated to see me come home. One day I was constipated , and the next I had diar rhoea. I called this Biliousness. My kidneys were in bad shape. There were pains in the small of my back , and I had to get up often in the night to urinate , and there was a scalding pain in passing water. I called this Kidney Trouble. One day I got hold of a book that told about a medicine called Pe-ru-na , which the book said was good for Catarrh. The book also said that Catarrh got into the stomach , liver , and kidneys as well as into the head. That seemed queer to me , but I bought some Pe-ru-na , and it cured every one of my troubles. So I have come to believe from actual experience that Catarrh is what ails most folks. If such people will take Pe-ru-na they will get well , but if they keep on taking stomach medi- cinesand , liver medicines , and kidney medicines , they will remain sick. Catarrh of some sort is what ails them , and Pe-ru-na is what will cure them. Ilnmember that cholera morbus , cholera Infantum. summer complaint , bilious colic , diarrhoea and dysentery are each and all catarrh of the bowels. Catarrh U the only correct name for these affections , I'e-ru-na is an absolute specific for these ailments , which are so common In summer. Dr. Hartman , in a practice of over forty yearn , never lost a single case of cholera Infantum , dysentery , diarrhoea , or cholera morbus , and Ms only remedy was Pe-ru-na.
