O Dim fo.'a Weekly Review of Trade will aay tomor rowi Iower prlco tor railway stocks than at any time alnre- last March do not neces sarily Indicate loss of traffic or a setback In buslnew. On the. rontrary, coincident with the collapse of the stock market, there were numerous Indications that manutac turlng and transport Interest have not facilities to meet demanda. though plants and equipment are of areater efficiency than at any previous time. Distribution of merchandise Is filly main tained, preparations hrlnjr made for a heavy holiday trade, and frequent complaints of tardy dellv?rles testify to the heavy con sumption. Prospects for continued good trade sre bright because of unprecedented harvests, assuring a good demand for other products. Threatened labor controversies have been averted. In some rases wages being advanced, while a number of In creases were voluntarily given. Railways Make Money. Railway earnings'' continue to advance, the first week of November showing a rise of 4.8 per cent over 1901 and 15.2 per cent over 19)0. High temperature retards retail trade In seasonable goods. Aside from the expected decline In prices of pipes and tubes there has been no evidence of weakness, and all the recent concessions were caused by com petition of. new plants rather than dimin ished business. Many purchasers are de laying orders, however, In the hope that the market will go lower In other depart ments, but there Is ahnormnl support In the light movement of coke. Rail mills are fully booked up to next September and a Canadian road placed a large order in Uermany, while structural shapes are In great request, especially for bridges. Kastern manufacturers of footwear are offering no Inducements to buyers, and, while no actual advances In prices have cccurred, the market la decidedly strong. Western shops are also busy, deliveries In both sections coming so slowly as to cause much complaint. Sole leather Is active and firm, both domestic and export sales beinc large. Some western tanners advanced prices, which checked business. Foreign dry hides are abundant and weaker. Lim ited supplies In first hands and with Jobbers have sustained cotton goods, despite the sharp decline In the raw material. Export trade Is dull, Chinese business showing the efTort of the break in silver, but foreign orders are in the market and could be se cured by slight concessions. It Is between seasons In the market for woolen goods, though there Is some Inquiry for heavy weights for quick delivery. Clothing manufacturers report encouraging rieults in their first test of the market on spring garments. Failure for the week numbered 241 in the United States, against 216 last year, and 24 in Canada, compared with 27 a year ago. WEEKLY CLEARING HUUsK TABLE.

This Is taken to Indicate wldesprend confidence In prosperous condi tions next year. Little or no Improvement Is noted In the fuel situation, which partic ularly affects Iron and steel manufacturers, many of whom are reported discouraged by their Inability to fill orders now on their books. Tel.-grnms to Bradstreet's Indicate that the movement of winter goods, particularly clothing. Is retarded by warm weather pre vailing throughout most of the country. In the northwest, at the centrsl west and at the east the temperature has not as yet be come low enough to stimulate final dis tribution. Most wesnern centers report reasonable activity, with Jobbers and liberal spring orders being booked. A heavy vol ume of winter goods Is moving on previous orders. Collections, except where affected by weather conditions, remain exceptionally good ami a large majority of cities report payments fair to good. Furniture manufacturers are reported un able to keep up with orders snd hardware Jobbers have all they can attend to. On the Pacific coast shipments of mer chandise are very heavy and many whole salers are behind on orders. Car shortages retard shipments of lum ber. Wet weather In the northwest and west has stimulated demand for rubber goods. At the south, except In Texas, warm weather has allowed cotton to germinate and be picked, thus enlarging the sggre-g-ite out-turn of the crop quite materially. At eastern centers Jobbing business has naturally quieted somewhat. Cotton goods are firm, despite the slight weakness In the raw product, while woolen goods are quiet and prices remain Arm, and the raw prod uct Is very closely held. The lumber trade Is still quite active, not withstanding the advanced stage of the season, and the only complaint Is as to backward deliveries. Other building ma terials are quite active. The boot and shoe business Is In good shape. Leather being closely sold up. Is firmly held. At eastern markets shipments are smaller than of late and tend to de crease as the period of stock-taking ar rives. Sharp differences are noted In the Iron and steel trade, accordingly as the cruder or more highly finished forms are consid ered. Scarcity of fuel keeps many fur naces idle and pig Iron demand Is In ex cess of production. Small lots of Bessemer pig obtalnuble for prompt delivery bring as high as 824 per ton at Valley furnaces, while for next year's delivery 821.60 is paid, en advance of 85 per ton over a year ago. Structural material mills are very active, being sold five or six months ahead, and the country's roll prlductlon Is said to be practically sold up to Beptember. 1903. The cut In the price of tin plates Is said to have not brought as many orders as antici pated, and merchant pipe prices have been cut from i to 10 per cent. The hardware trade Is active and wire and nails, heretofore suffering from over production, have been heavily ordered. The flour market Is apparently In good shape. New orders are not numerous, but the mills are busily employed on old busi ness. Wheat. Including flour, exports for the week ending November 3 aggregate 4.440,160 bushels, against 5,715,655 last week, 4,983.704 this week last year and 4.062,020 In 1900. Wheat exports Bince July 1 aggregate lol, 684,652 bushels, against 117,182,318 last season and 71,465.091 In 1900.

A radical re duction of postage rates to Europe will be urged on congress at this session by the postmaster general. It is believed that the nations affected will readily agree to any plan proferred. It Is proposed to put the governments of England, Oermany and France on the same footing as Canada and Mexico. in view nf the areatly Increased volume of postal business and the number of com mercial transactions between this country and Europe, the foreign rate is held to be entirely disproportionate to the domestic rats and to serve as a detriment to tne business .Interests of the country. Mr. Pint believes a reduction In postal rates would not only prove a great benefit to business, but would so Increase tne revenue as to counter balance the loss from lower rates. This has ben the experience In the reciprocal arrangements made with Can ada and Mexico. iinn a ths assent of congress Is se cured Germany, England and France will be approached. TREATY ALMOST COMPLETED Ifo Berloaa Complications Likely Now to Arise in Panama Canal Negotiations. WASHlVfiTON. Nov. 14. Mr. Cromwell, counsel for tbe Panama Canal company. called at the State department tonay ana hart a rnnrerenre with Secretary Hay re specting the next ateps to be taken In view of Attorney General Knox s opinion on the sufficiency of the canal title to carry out tbe transfer of tue property 10 tbe United States government. The Bpooner act requires a treaty with n.umkii tn he made before the canal com pany's property Is actually purchased by the United States, DUl mis treaty i nuw ll advanced towsrd completion, so that It Is" deemed proper to consider other measures relating to the rrencn tine, ii la also understood that after a con ference with such senatorial leaders as have been In Washington recently becre. nr H.v has orettv well satisfied himself h. ir urh a thins were desirable, con gress would readily amend the ppooner act, ao as to wipe out tbe condition that a treaty must precede the purchase. In such case the canal property, having been bought, the United 8tatea govern ment would go ahead with the work of construction, leaving tho treaty negotia tions to follow. But as already Indicated, ths negotiations between Secretary Hay and Craar Concha have progreased so sat. Isfaetortly as to warrant the belief that so such recourse to further legislation will be necessary- The present status of the treaty nego tiations Is thst there Is now in the hands of Secretary Hay, who Is waiting to sub mlt It to the president, a proposal from Colombia, suggesting modincstlons of the treaty ahlch the United States originally proposed. This is being considered, point by point, and while it la not doubt 1 that it wiH not.- be- accepted as a whole, yet there Is 'said to be fair ground for com promise between the two propositions. STEALS CHINAMEN'S MONEY Hawaiian Treasurer Alleged to Have Embessled Eighteen Thosaand Dollars. WASHINGTON. Nov. 14. Official re ports on the alleged defalcations by of ficials in Hawaii were received by the sec retary of the Interior today from Gov ernor Dole. William H. Wright, the treas urer of the territory, admits he Is $17,950 short, and B. H. Wright, chief clerk of the department of public works, is charged with embezzling $8,272. Governor Dole says Secretary Cooper, who is now acting treasurer, heard through confidential sources that tbe treasurer was short and when the latter was confronted with tbe statement he denied It, but sub sequently admitted a shortage of about $18,000, giving assurances at the same time that he would make It good. Mr. Cooper on taking charge held an in vestigation, at which the treasurer failed to make good a promise to appear. The cash In the general treasury was found to be correct, but the governor reports that the Chinese fund, under special deposit In the vaults, was $17,950 short. This fund originated In deposits made by Chinese en tering Hawaii to secure their passago money on leaving the country.

INDIANS WISH TO KEEP HOME Object to Government Plan to Hove Them from Land Owned by White Men. WASHINGTON, Nov. 14. Indian bureau officials say that If any discontent exists among tbe mission Indians in the neigh borhood of Indlo, Cal., it Is the result of a misinterpretation of the government's motives in arranging to transfer the Warner's ranch Indians to a tract of land about to be bought for the purpose. The Indian bureau has received no word of any discontent existing among the In dians, except at Warner's ranch, where they are anxious to remain, though the courts have upheld tbe claims of white men tor the land. Land known as the Pala tract has been selected by a government commission for these Indians and the abstract of the title Is now on ths way here. There Is no ap prehension of serious trouble.

THREATEN RETALIATION IF NECESSARY Say Passenarers Should Pay Same Price Winter and limner nod May Force Suspension of Spe cial Convention Plans. CHICAGO, Nov. 14. It is most probable that cheap passenger rates will not be put Into effect In territory west of Chicago during 1903. A movement Is on foot to abrogate cheap rates for conventions, ex cursions and colonists. Tbe movement Is due to a determined protest made by the Canadian Pacific, the Great Northern and the Northern Pacific.- Several conferences have been held re garding the matter, but no final settlement has yet been reached. The last confer ence, held today, was attended by J. C. Stubbs of the Harrlman lines, ths vies president snd general passenger agsot of the Canadian Pacific, general passenger agents of the Northern Pacific and Great Northern, the general passenger agent of the Union Pacific and Darius Miller, vice president of the Burlington. The northern lines complain that the cheap rates granted by the western lines during the summer destroys the northern harvest of tourists and threaten, if the western lines persist in these rates, that they 'will be compelled to put on similar rates during the winter snd thereby hurt the tourist and resort traffio of the west ern lines.
