Dan & Company Weekly Re view of Trade tomorrow will Bay: There is no step backward in business, although the sea 1 son of midsummer quiet is near. Improvement continues, grad ual and prudently cautious as oeiore, aituougn in many branches evident where no signs of it appeared a few weeks ago. Business men of the highest standing in all parts of the country having gradually per ceived that the tide haB begun to rise, are regulating their contracts and investments and their plans for the future with a confidence quite unknown to them a short time ago. Great changes before the adjourn ment of Congress are hardly to be expected, but removal of un certainly is with reason expect ed to bring into operation buy ing which has been restricted for months. he main factor at this tini6 is the steadily brightening prospect for crops. Harvesting of wheat has already begun in some winter wheat States with surprisingly good results In the central region and California, so that 80)000 tons is now call ed the minimum of the latter State and the statisticians of repute calculate on 60,000,000 bushels beyond the government estimate. SpriDg wheat is do ing remarkably well with a practically unknown increase of acreage. The prices have ad vanced 1 l-2d during the week with a decrease of 1,200,000 buBhels ih Western receipts' and Atlantic exports of only 1,445,947 bushels, flour includ ed against 1,713,961 last year, but it is just the season wken ilgures have no yalue except as proving how erroneous were es timates of the crop of 1S96. Cotton was lifted an eighth without reason and has fallen back as much because every thing points to a large crop than baa been commonly ex pected. Iron and steel products aver aged a small fraction lower in published quotations, but .only because concession which are now refused" were by various authorities complacently con cealed two weeks agoi Iron is firm wi'.h a better de mand at the East and Chicago bat the impatience of valley furnaces to resume work keeps Bessemer and gray forge at last week's quotations at Pitts burg.- . 3?he best of the nefrsus a material increase In order? for plates in part for ship build ing, in bars for agricultural im plement orks, in , structural shapes for building arid bridges and in galvanized sheets. One heavy contract for 300miies 30-inch and 100 miles 10-inch pipe sought by the Australian government for the gold regions excities trader many tf he hopes in the ore producing. companies are cutting prices of Alessaba, -Bessemer, Fayal, toj $6 10, apparently in order to secure the biggest possible business for the year aa a basis for future combination. Tin has only advanced to 14c, in spite of heavy arrivals. One thousand two hundred tons of lead .have been sold, moderate quantities now bringing .$3,42. and purchases advanced Lane copper to 11 l-8c. T-here is an encouraging in crease in tue aemana icr an textile goods, even for cottons, which have so long been slow, and .though it is but moderate; there is nothing of a speculative character in the transactions and prices are firmly held. Or dera for wool have been rather better than expected from clothiers and fairly good for dress goods. Operations in spring goods are still deferred, while mills are sfciewhat bet ter employed and re buying to some extent. Mkt Of the purchases of wool ar Jfor spec ulation. Domestic wool is still held at relatively high piices at the West. Failures for the week have been 216 in the United States, against 217 last year, and 24 in Canada, against 24 last year. POSITION OF GOMEZ. New York, June 25. A ape cial to the Herald from Havana says': General Gojez is Btill west of the Jucarmioron trocha and when Garola was last heard of he was stamped near Bay amo. In the meantime in the "pacified" provinces the rebels are still in evidence. Castillo had a skixmiah with a Spanish column on June IS. The Span iards were --routed and lost thirty-three men and four offi cers. ENCYCLOPEDIC ORATORY. Austin Statesman. Mr. McKinley, in his speech at Nashville fell into the com mon error of gentlemen visiting the South to orate to its people. They come down South cram med with the State statistics', obtained from an encyclopedia, and proceed to give ua facts and figures in regard to our re sources and development. We Ihave encycloDedias, and per haps more practical informa tion than can be obtained from such books, and we know all they tell us before they come. What was the Use of Mr. Mc Kinley unloading statistics in regard to Tennessee to an au dience of Tennesseans, who knew more thanj he did about Lhem?

From Central America tames news of one of thos'e jlitiful cases that at short intervals are bfdught to tile attention of the State Department, where our great- uovernment isfc? shown to be utterly unable to help in the slightest -degree its citizens when in the depths of distress. James William Scandrett writes from Livingston, Guate mala, praying the Secretary of State for help. He says Re is an American citizen, having lived in San Francisco for i i years; and has proofs of good character. Going to Salvador to erect machinery, he has suffered the most miserable hardships through sickness wounds arid starvation. Appeal for help ''to -the American Consul were with out avail, because the official had no authority to spend money" to ship" the man to New Orleans, He says the British Consul would have sent him home had he been an Englishman, and he prays the Secretary for relief lest he die of hardships, as the Consul says there is, unfortunately, no fund at the disposal of the State Department for the re lief of destitute Americans abroad, such as the British service provides. A RUSSIAN PROTEST. London, June" 25. The St Petersburg correspondent of the Morning Post says the Novoe-Vremya has protested vigorously against the action of the United States as-to Ha waii, which, ft adds;-may soon I be followed by an attempt to annex Cuba. "Europe," says the Novbe Vremya, 'has every reason to oppose the strengthening bt the United States Jn the hew world, and must be ready to support Spain if she is threat? ened with the loss of Cuba.L i.-ie.'.
