combined to cut off the run of hogs at all

very small. The big decrease in the sup

that sellers were enabled to force an ad

DUN'S REVIEW OF TRADE
Erratic Weather Tends to Make Week's
BuBicess Irregular.
OUTLOOK FOR FUTURE IS YERY BRIGHT
Larce Contracts for gammer De
livery Closed and Many Orders Are
riarrd for Fall Iron and
Steel Mills Active.
NEW YORK, Arril 21. R. O. Pun and
Company's weekly Review of Trade tomor
row will say:
Erratic weather has tended to make trnde
reports somewhat Irregular, but on the
whole the week s results were satisfactory.
Early delavs were followed by Increased
activity, particularly in what might be
leitneu r.iistrr lines.
It is noteworthy that much business for
fall delivery has appeared, and more sup
plementary spring and imtmr contracts
are being placed than Jobbers anticipated.
Meanwhile payments are also Increasingly
prompt. Industrial activity expands, Iron
furnaces an.t steel mills maintaining their
good record, textile plants securing larger
orders, and foot wear manufacturers are
able to hold full prices without curtailing
operations. Ijibor controversies are few
find cause little Inconvenience, while Immi
gration for the last week was more man
double that of the corresponding week In
Unit. Transporting Interests are able to
handle the Increased business with little
congestion, railwuv earninizs thus far re
tiorteil for Anrll evceedlntr last year s ny
12 per cent. Foreign commerce at this
ort for the last week showed a gain of
i2,oi!.S61 In value of merchandise ex
ported, and Imports were 13.415,922 larger
than In the same week In 19o4.
Higher wage scales becoming effective
on May 1 assure freedom from laoor
troubles nt blast furnaces, and there Is
little friction at the steel mills, but the
Industry will be Interrupted unless Iron
ore Is freely mined. Otherwise the Iron and
steel Industry is in splendid condition,
contract deliveries extend well Into next
year in many departments and there Is no
division that can be styled dull. Coke
output continues to surpass all records
nnd as traffic conditions are ravoraDie
the free movement threatens accumulation
so that tht.i fuel Is a little weaker. Both
anthracite and bituminous coal are active.
leather Is steady despite reports of
sales at concessions, emanating from
transactions In inferior goods, while belt
ing butts advanced sharply. Packer hides
are strong and active. Foreign dry hides
are unchanged.
Failures tills week numbered 2'i0 In the
United States, against 241 last year and 21
in Canada, compared with 12 a year ago.
Reports from the titles.
Dispatches to Dun's Review Indicate
that the drawback to trade and Industry
In the paft Week occurred In those sections
that experienced Inclement weather. This
applied chiefly to retail distribution and
agricultural work, building operations and
manufacturing progressing satisfactorily.
Philadelphia reports lumber dealers sea
sonably busy, but sufficient cars ennnot be
secured to handle shipments promptly from
southern porti. Brick nnd cement makers
report Improvement. Steel mills are fully
occupied at Pittsburg, but the window glass
output Is reduced. Inclement weather
checked retail trade at Cincinnati, but
wholesale dry goods sales for quick de
livery have been exceptionally heavy.
Business shows steady Improvement nt
Cleveland. Trade at Baltimore Is affected
by unseasonable weather anil collections
are not prompt. Spring trade at St. Jo
seoh Is satisfactory.
Trade conditions nt Chicago exhibit
further strength, sales compare favorably
with last year and collections are reason
ably prompt. Business nt St. Paul Is
favorable, payments Improve. Merchandise
movement at Minneapolis was checked by
cokr weather, but collections are reason
ably prompt. Omaha receipts of live stock
increase, but the demand is quiet. Job
bing trade nt Salt Lake City Is normal
for the season nnd somewhat better than
a year ago. San Francisco real estate Is
active, building contracts large and mrmey
abundant. St. Louis reports business In
all lines active nnd collections good. Manu
facturers nt Kansas City are busy, whole
sale trade Is brisk, but retail sales are
disappointing. Clothing manufacturers at
Iyiulsvllle have finished spring deliveries
and are starting work on fall lines.
Bank t'lrarlncVs Increase.
Rank exchanges Indicate another spurt
of activity, not only at New York, where
stock market operations swell clearings
considerably, hut at cities outsidi? New
York, where they show n, considerable In
crease. Total exchanges this week at all
leading cities In the United States are $2,
962,659.250. a gain of 70.2 per cent over Inst
year, and 4S.4 per cent over the correspond
ing week of 1903.
quarters are rather dull on account of the
partially onserveii nourjay.

SHEEP The situation in the sheep mar
ket was a good deal the sums as It was
yesterday, that Is there was a good, liberal
run, but a very large proportion of the
receipts consisted of Colorado lambs con
signed through to eastern points. The
actual offerings on the market were light,
even for a Friday, and it did not take
buyers very long to dispose of them at
prices not materially different from those
which prevailed yesterday.
The market for the week to date misht
te summed up as right around t&c lower
on shorn sheen and the common to me
dium kinds of wooled sheep, some are
putting it 15i26o lower. Good to choice
wooled sheep are anywhere from ateady or
a utile earner to urrtiac lower than last
week. On Tuesday the best wooled lambs
sold at $7 50. but since that date there has
been so little doing In the lamb department.
owing to the small offerings, that it la not
an easy matter to quote the market, but
Judging from the way buyer are talking
If there was any number of lambs on the
market they would m 11 lower In about the
nmf proportion as stieep.
It is not difficult to learn the cause for
the break In the market, as It can be seen
at once In-the more or less demoralised
condition of eastern markets, due to large

ST. PETERSBURG. April 22. 12:50 a. m.
May day demonstrations on a grand
scale throughout the empire is the program
of the socialist wing of the reform rarty,
as announced at the Pan-Russian congress
of Journalists which closed yesterday after
a protracted and stormy session.
The cot.gress Illustrated the lack of unity
in reform circles, the program as finally
adopted falling to touch many burning
nupstlons of the hour on account of the
Impossibility of harmonizing the views of
divergent elements. At the conclusion
neither side was satisfied with the program.
The moderate faction, which was In the
majority, eliminated a number of recom
mendations in deference to the wishes cf
the social democrats, while the representa
tives of the socialist press characterized
the platform generally, and especially the
plunk regarding tactics as wishy-washy and
announced that the plan of organized meet
ings and pnrades In every city and In
dustrial center of Russia on May 14, to
which they were unable to gain the con
currence of other elements, will be car
ried out regardless of the congress.
Defiance to the Poller.
The social democrats disclaimed any In
tention of rioting, but declared that If
the police attempted to break up the dem
onstrations the government would be an
swerable.
The chief accomplishment of the congress
wns Its determination to organize an as
sociation which will participate In the gen
eral work of the Reform league of all
professional classes, in which the lawyers
took the first steps nt their recent con
gress here.
Practically nil the liberal papers of Rus
sia were represented In the Journalists'
congress, among the delegates being Tollsh,
Finnish, Armenian, Georgian, Esthonlan.
Lettish, Lithuanian and Little Russian Jour
nalists. Among the speakers were M.
Milukoff, who recently made a lcrturlnfr
tour of America, and the poet, Koroenko.
The police did not Interfere.
Demands of Resolution.
The program adopted comprises vague
resolutions In favor of the nationalization
of land, some form of liberation of the
laboring classes from the industrial yoke,
and the right of various nationalists to
self-development, as far as consistent with
the existence of the empire. A long dis
cussion of tactics resulted in a declara
tion that the present system left no room
for legal methods of agitation, and the
delegates pledged themselves to the
greatest possible agitation in favor of a
legislative assembly by both legal and ex
tra legal publications. In view of alleged
attempts of the authorities to Incite the
proletariat ngainst the educated classes, the
congress demanded the right of the peo
ple to arm themselves and form local
militia for self-defense.
Among the planks excised from the plat
form was a declaration for an eight-hour
work day, which was carried by a ma
jority so narrow that It was finally de
ckled to not Include It.

BHADSTHEETS REVIEW OF TRADE
Distribution of Seasonable Goods Re
tarded by Rainy Weather.
NEW YORK, April 21,-Bradstreets to
morrow wll say:
Trade reports are irregular in character,
distribution of seasonable goods at retail
being retarded by cool or rainy weather
at the west and northwest and south,
whero truck, fruit, products and voung
cotton are reported damaged by frosts.
Industries, however, are active, Jobbing
trade at some centers l still good and re
tall business toward the latter end of the
week became more animated. Building Is
brisk, money is firmer, bank clearings hav
ing increased heavily; prices in general dis
play a downward tendency, weakness In
grain and securities being especial features.
Railway earnings are still on the up grade
and western wheat crop prospects con
tinue favorable, timely rains helping with
the wheat, though cold weather has de
layed spring wheat and oats and corn seed
ing. nue iron anti steel still continue
buoyant, demand for pig and old Iron Is
less pronounced and the markets therefore
present a quiet appearance. Inquiries for
foreign Diuets are numerous, their scarcity
here being the. Immediate feature in the
market. American houses are said to be
figuring on the construction of iron and
steel works In Japan and China. It Is
usually a quiet -season for Jobbers, but
paints, oils, lumber, plumbers' supplies and
building material are active, while agricul
tural implements are in good request. Hre
and there Industrial disturbances have
cropped up, but so far the situation In this-
respect is very satisfactory.
Coke prices have softened considerably
during the week. Anthracite roal Is active.
but the sort coal situation Is unratlsfac
tory, recent concessions In the eastern dis
tricts having placed those sections at a
disadvantage as compared with western
regions.
Unseasonable weather at the east re
tarded dry goods trade at retail, but later
on a good Easter business was done.
Wholesale trade In dry goods ha been
naturally quiet. fc
Export Inquiry for cotton Is good snd
many makers are sold ahead well Into 19u6.
The wool market Is quiet, but firm as re
gards old supply of American wool. For
eign grades are, however, In good de
mand. On the rnelfie coast the outlook seems
without a flaw. A very heavy export trade
with Aaa is looked for on the coast this
year.

Wool Market.
BO8TON. April 21. WOOL The Commer
cial Bulletin tomorrow will say of the wool
market: In sympathy with operations In
the west, this market Is even a little
stronger than a week ago, and this position
is sjstatlned by condition of goods mar
ket. Foreign wools have sold freely, but
not to the degree of last week's sales. The
rew clips which have arrived here have
been quickly bought up and a fair busi
ness has been transacted in pulled wools.
Contracting in the west continues vigor
ously at fancy prices. The tone of all
the foreign markets has still further Im
proved with fairly active trade. The ship
ments of wool from Boston to date, from
December 29, 1904, according to the same
authority, are 79,249,766 pounds, against
71.373.868 pounas ni tne same ""'-
The receints to date are 89,378.3.3 pounds

NEW TOMATOES COME TO TOWN
I'lmlv of xlee Fresh Thing Are
Offered- for the Table by
Omaha Dealers.
Some tomatoes, as large and beautiful
and loud-colored as a Turner sunset, came
to town yesterday from ojus, in tne
south, and will bu wholesaled at $6 a
crate, which Is equal to $1 a basket, for
the crates contain six of these. They are
the first really fat, old-fashioned, ripe to
matoes to come to town o far this year,
nnd are a sight well worth the price of
admission. The tomatoes so far received
have been little prematurely ripe thjngs,
which were not at all the sort one could
admire unllmitedly. The price will be a
little less within a short time, as other
date will come Into the market.
The parsley continue to be about the
brightest and crispest thing In sight. The
Jobbing price la now down to 60 cents, and
It I only a question of time when the
parsley will sell to cheaply It cannot
afford to keep lee In It barrel. Illinois 1
ending In sotno very nice spinach now,
which I arriving In very fresh condition
and 1 a credit to th boiled dinner. There
are now wax beans from Florida and
green string beans from Corpus ChrlBtl,
which is probably in Texas. The beans
are really not bad at all. The cucumber
are getting fairly cheap now and are com
ing In by regular shipment. The Cuban
pineapple continue to monopolize the fruit
market outside of the citrous cluster.
There are, however, a few cranberries left.
and it must be admitted that for so late
in th season they are very good looking
cranberries, too. Some one has been able
to rake up more of the sweet potatoes.
At one time It w said that the mildew
wa on the sweet so badly that none
could be obtained during this month for
the Omaha market, but this atatement ha
proved untrue, for a few of the almond-
eyed ipud continue to circulate Ut the
neighborhood.
