TREND OF BUSINESS Better Conditions Prevail in Every Direction. CHOPS ARK A3 YKT tlNSKTTLKD As the learning 1'ower of th. Musses Hecoiiies Greater, on.umptlou ttrows Larger rrlces High. Mew York. June 10. Duu & Co. 'a weekly review of trade gays: "The trend of buainosa ia rising, even as it was falling just two years ago, with surprising rapidity. The gain haa gone so fur and so faat in some branches that the more conserva tive fear it may not be maintained. But the period of dullness which comes in each market after au unusual rise brings as yet nothing like a correspond ing decline. Indnstirea gain much, halt, or fall back a little and then gain once more. The demand for consump tion is steadily increasing as the em ployment and wages of the people in crease. The demand lor money in creases, oue bank reporting 39 per cent increase in the discounts for the coun try and another 23 per cent more com mercial loans than s year ago,, and all but two report some gain. . "The serious quostiou remains whether the crop will be good enough to sustain a large business. The re ports are better by far than estimates recently current Wheat rose 2o, fell back 2o with realizing, and has risen attain 8a, with a Western estimate of a crop of 80,000,000 bushels Bmaller than last year. It is pertinent to remember that official and most unofficial reports, down to a late period last fall, had the yield about 80,000,000 lower than now known to have been. Western receipts were 234,000 bushels more than last year, and in nve weeks nave teen 7,071,000 bushels against 6,900,500 last year, while Atlantio exports, flour included, 670,000 bushels smaller for the week, have been in five weeks 7,736,700 bushels against 11,945,500 last year. There is neither holding back by farmers, nor any anxious haste in pur chasing by foreigners to support the belief in a scarcity. Cotton declined an eighth of a cent. 'Iron pushed upward like the great buildings into whioh so much of it goes and the advance in finished products has become general. Of stuctural steel, 12.600.000 tons were turned out in May by the Homestead works, breaking the record, and prices rose to 1.3 cent-s for beams and 1.2 for angels. Coke producers are said to have substantially agreed upon sales by an agenoy and an advance in prices to $1.50 or higher. Chicago works are in full operation, though the. demand from agricultural implement makers lags, because the coming harvest is in doubt. Tin is weaker, with a rise in the world's supply, but copper . is stronger at $10.75 for lake, and lead at 3.3 cents. "Failures for the week were 195 for the United Status, against 216 last year, and 25 in Canada, against 40 last year." TOLD TO INSPECTORS. The OtHclal Inquiry Into the Wreck of the Collina. San Franoisco, June 10. The United States inspectors of hulls and boilers oominenced an official examina tion into the Colima disaster today. A. K. Richardson, storekeeper of the wrecked steamer, told the story of the storm, of the sinking of the ship and of the rescue of the survivors by the steamer San Juan. His testimony de veloped no new details of the ship wreck. Third officer Hansen was the next witness, and stated that when the steamer left Manzanillo May 26 tljo weather was fair, with a heavy south west swelL He said that he had super intended the loading of the cargo; that the work bad been well done, and that the cargo had not shifted. If the Co lima had not been a good boat, he thought she would not have weathered the storm as long as she did. He heard no explosion. He was in charge of the bridge when the steamer went down. He believes the wreck was dne entirely to the violenoe of the storm. The morning of the 27th she fell off into the trough of the sea and listed to star board. Three heavy seas broke over her, and after the third she listed over on her beam ends with her masts in the water, sinking five minutes later be fore the life-boats could be launched. The customs and quarantine authori ties say they will discipline the Pacific Mail officials for summarily removing the Colma's officers and seamen from the San Juan on a tug before the quar antine or customs officers boarded her. The Wild Man at Sonoma. Santa Rosa, CaL, June 10. Ben Buckley, the famous Sonoma county "wild man," is now in the Ukiah in sane asylum. For the past twenty years Buckley has been living in an open pen on the Cunningham ranch, in Blucher valley. ' He refused to leave the place even in a the worst part of the rainy season, and was content to lie in hole in the gonnd during the hardest rain storms. When the water got too deep to suit him be would bail it out with bis hat He lived mostly on canned goods, and seldom cooked anything. He imagined himself to be the president of the United States, and said he had been president since the time of Washington. The cause of his hallucination was a blow received on the head twenty years ago, while on the road home one night. He was as saulted by robbers and badly beaten. San Francisco, June 10. The pre liminary .examination of O. Win throp, secretary of the local lodge of Chosen Friends, aocused of the murder of Mrs. Jennie Matthews, was com menced today. Six-year-old Mattie Matthews today denied she had ever said that Winthrop had given her mother a pill before she became ill in the cemetery. She said he did not give her mother anything. The child's former testimony was the only founda tion tbe prosecution had. It now has no evidence. MAY BE A MASSACRE. Christians In Turkey tbe l'robable Vic tim, of a Government Order. Julfa, Persia, June 11. The Turk ish government, it is claimed, has just taken the preliminary steps In wnat may result in massacre of Nestorian Christians in the mountains of Kurdi stan. It is asserted that the govern nieut has given orders to starve the in dependent tribes of Nestorians iu the mountain region lying immediately west of Gawar, . whioh may be do scribed as lying about midway between Mosul and Lake Van, about fifty miles west of the Persian frontier. The or dors, it is stated, are that no food imp plios of any kind shall be allowed to enter the territory of the independent tribes, and measures are said to have been taken to enforce these orders to the letter. This action is apparently taken as a means of compelling the independent tribes to submit to the Turkish author itius and to pay the taxes demanded hf the government, and is regarded, as the first serious attempt that the Turks have made to extort taxes from the in dependent tribes. From the earliest time in the history of the Ottoman empire these tribes have been independent of Turkish rule. They have paid no taxes and they have acknowledged no allegiance to the Turkish government The present course of the government is taken in some quarters as an indica tion that the sultan has sot on foot a systematic persecution of Christains in all parts of the empire. Tbe sultan has plenty of opportunity for knowing that the independent Nestorians are too poor to pay taxes, and that many of them make a living by going down into the villages of the other wretchedly poor countrymen and begging. These poor creatures, aooording to the story, are to be starved because they will not share with the sultan of Turkey the scraps of bread, the refuse bits of meat, and the odds and ends which they ob tain by begging. . Their homes are in a wilderness of mountain peaks and narrow, rocky valleys, wnere noinmg will grow, except a tuft of broom-corn j here and there in the crevices of the rocks on the mountain sides and a few stocks of millet in a casual square yard of soil in the valleys. It is not difficult to forecast the probable result of the starvation of this race of beggars, should the report turn out to be oorrect Driven des perate by hunger, the peoplo will en deavor to obtain food from Gawar and other outside districts, and there will be fights with the Turkish troops; the villages will be attacked and some of the wretched people killed, and no man can prophesy where the persecution will end. . , I have just returned from a rapid journey to the Kurdish mountains for the purpose of investigating the report that fourteen villages had tieen attack ed and devastated by a raid of Kurds last week. The original rumor had it that the Kurds had massacred many Christians, and had oarried off women and girls to the mountains. After riding day and night to reach the scene of the raid, I at length arrived at the Merauiver valley; whioh lies like the bottom of a boat beneath huge moun tains covered from base to summit with almost unbroken expanses of suow. . It was in this valley that the raid took place. It is said a band of Kurds from the mountains had indeed raided four teen villages in this valloy, but the raid was directed against other Kurds, and not against Christians. . There were a few Nestorian Christians living in the valley, but they were not mo lested in any way. As this was not a race or a religious raid, it will prob ably have little interest outside of the valley. I regret to say that Mr. Paton, the British consul-general in British Per sia, is very much in disfavor with the gentlemen who are conducting the Ar menian revolutionary movements. In Bpite of the fact that Mr. Paton has been collecting evidence of the Sassonn and Moosh massacres for use of the British government, Armenians look uppn him as a spy. They may go to the length of doing him bodily harm. The closing of the caravan routes to Van has rendered more acute the suf ering from famine in the devastated districts near Van. The only hope of. relief is now -cut off. The Controversy Over Ames' Estate. Baltimore, June 11. The long-pending contrversy over the estate of the late Bishop E. R. Ames, of the Metho dist Episcopal church, has been settled. The suit brought by Mrs. Emma L. A. Weik, grand-daughter of the bishop, and administratrix of his estate, aaginst William Hiss, husband of the bishop's daughter, to recover the value of the personal property left by the bishop, has been entered iu court as "agreed and settled." Similar action has been taken with reference to five other suits growing out of the contro versy. During the recent visit to Chi cago of ex-Hovernor White, counsel for Mrs. Weik, the terms of settlement were agreed upon. . Vlctime of Chinese. London, June 11. A special from Shanghai says it is almost certain that a massacre of all the persons connected with the English, French and Ameri can missions at Cheng Tu has occurred. Neither men, women nor children have been spared, aocoding to the report It is admitted that telegrams have been intercepted by the government, .the ob ject being to conceal the news of the massacre. A French gunboat is en route to Wuen Chang to investigate the report ' Hene j A mated for the Mint Steal. Denver, June 11. James T. Heney, charged with complicity in the robbery of the United States mint at Carson, Nev., was arrested by United States Marshal Humphrey at Leadville, and brought to Denver today and remained in custody of United States Marshal Israel until this afternoon, ' when he was taken to Canyon City. Heney seemed pleased with the opportunity afforded him to meet the charge, say ing he is wrongfully charged and will be able to prove his innocence. The Baltic Canal a Bejeerae. Kiel, June 7. The steamer Palitia, with Prince Hohenlohe and other members of the council of ministers aboard, traversed the Baltic canal to day for hundred kilometers. The trial demonstrates the oomplet success of ths oanaL Another Decision by Assistant Secretary Reynolds. SOLDIERS' PENSIONABLE SIGHTS Question to Be Ascertained la Whether Kullatment Was for the War or ; the Regular Army. Washington, June 8. Another de cision has been rendered by Assistant Secretary Reynolds bearing on the date of the termination of the war and the pensionable rights of soldiers enlisting in 1864 and 1865. The oonolusion reached by Mr. Reynolds is that in all these cases tbe question to be ascertain ed is whether the enlistment of the sol diers was for service in the war of the rebellion or in the regular army. If the former, he is pensionable, . and if tbe latter, he is not. . Mr. Reynolds cites the. various orders suspending en listments for the war and those order ing tbe commencing of enlistments for the regular army. He says: "As to these volunteer enlistments in the regular army, after the cessation of armed hostiltios, it cannot be truth fully said that their enlistment was for the war of the Rebellion. " . In reference to the decision of the supreme court assigning August 20, 1866, as the end of the civil war be says: :-- "The reasons however which would Admit of this holding where the right of tbe parties in the .cases involved might be a treated by the running of the statute of limitations, cannot be accepted to establish the date of termi nation of the war of the rebellion where the questions involved are whether an enlistment was in fact for the war of the Rebellion and the ser- vioe performed thereunder in further ance of its suppression." - ' The secretary, therefore, holds that enlistments in the loyal states after April 18, 1865 when recruiting in them ceased will not be deemed en listments in or for the war of the re bellion. In the other states and terri tories and the District of Columbia, June 1, 1665, will be taken as the final date, as enlistmonts then ceased in those parts of the country, and July 1, 1865, 'will be taken as the final date of war enlistments for the navy. AN IMPORTANT QUESTION. Right o'.a. Husband to Dismiss q Iam ; age Hult Brought by l. la Wife. - San Francisco, June 8. There was filed in the superior court today a peti tion involving the right of a husband lo- dismiss ; an aottosv ior damages brought by the wife. This affects every woman in California, for a decision in favor of the petitioner means that a husband can at any time, for a consid eration, dismiss an action brought by the wife, without regard to- th justice of her cause. The case in question is the - suit of Laura D. Cunningham against the California Street Railway Company for damages on account of injuries received in a collision. At torneys for defendants have filed a pe tition, signed by A." C. Cunningham, husband of the plaintiff, -asking that the suit be dismissed. Cunningham says he has separated from his wife, but no formal agreement of separation has been made. He alleges that his wife was not so badly injured as she pretended to bo, and is attempting to blackmail the railway company. 1 Act ing under this belief, Cunningham has authorized the company to dismiss his wife's suit Heavy Travel to Alaaka. Taooma, June 8. The City of To peka sails for Alaska. tomorrow, with every berth taken, and carries the first parties of Eastern excursionists for the season. A Raymond-Whitoomb party of twenty -seven goes up on her. The Queen will leave on her first trip this season next Wednesday, with a full list of tourists. The outlook is for a very heavy Alaskan travel this sum mer, this being indicated by both the present bookings and inquiries One cause, perhaps, is the fact that rates on the steamers, the Queen excepted, are 50 per cent lower than during pre vious seasons. . Frlnea or Wales Will Surely Come. New York, June 8. A special to a morning paper from Newport- says the Prince of Wales will visit Newport the last of August as the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Ogden Goelet The Goelet villa is now being redecorated, and it is said a suite will be especially furnished for the prince. The prince has not visited this oountry for thirty -five years. It is said he will come only on the assurance of Mr. Ooelet that no fuss shall be made over his presence, and that he shall be permitted to appear at the American cup races and about Newport strictly incognito. Forest Fires In Indiana. Brazil, Ind., June 10. Forest fires are raging in the noithern part of this county and the southern part of Parke, caused by railroad men burning ties along the track. It is said that about 800 acres of timber have been consumed by the flames, while some residence property is threatened. A large num ber of men have been constantly at work fighting the fire. The shafts at the coal mines of the Superior Coal Company, tbe Isaac Mcintosh Coal Company, the Swamp Angel mine, and several others are threatened. Denver Makee aa Appropriation. Denver, June 8. Tbe Denver board of supervisors has passed an appropria tion of (50,000 for the mining and In- dnstral exposition to be held in Denver next year. A petition asking the coun ty commissioners to apropriate 100, 000 has been signed by many of the heaviest taxpayers and wealthiest men in fie city. Leases were today signed for thirty seres of private land adjoin ing tbe state and city property set apart for the site. To Frteoa for Life. Detroit, Mich., Jane 8. The Jury in the case of Mrs. Nellie Pope, charg ed with the murder of her husband, re turned a verdict of guilty this after noon. She was immediately sentenced to lift imprisonment BRTISH IN NICARAGUA. Their Occupation of Corlnto Neither Forgotten Nor forgiven. New York, June 10. The Herald's Washington correspondent says: England is reaping a sorry harvest as result cf the Coriuto affair. By lauding her marines on Nicaraguan soil to secure the payment of the indem uity for the expulsion of Consul Hatch she sowed for herself seeds of hatred in the native breast that has produced a crop of most bitter animosity, and has already affected her interests in Nica ragua, and will undoubtedly continue to do so. This is made clear in the first report on this subject, which has been reoeiv ed at the navy department from Com mander Ide, of the Alert The Nica' raguans and in fact all residents of Central America, he says, consider the United States as their natural protector and look to us for assistance when in trouble. - They have an exaggerated notion of the scope of the Monroe doe trine, as well as the sixe of the naval and military service of the United States, and believe, with the majority of Americans, that the United States oan trounce the remainder of the world if necessary. It was feared by the Nicarsgnans, Commander Ide reports, that the Brit ish intended io obtain control of the ca nal, and they declared they would rather see the canal project defeated than have it pass into British hands. CONFLICT OF AUTHORITY, California's Labor Commlaaluner and a San Francisco Follee Justice. San Franoisco, June 10. State La bor Commissioner Fitzgerald collided with Justice of the Peace Uroezinger yesterday and came out second best A. E. Moore was tried several days ago by Justice Qroezinger for refusal to pay rent for a building he occupiod. He claimed that the building was not iu good Banitary oondition, as required by law, and he whs therefore privileged to retain one month's rent A health inspector testified that the building was in proper sanitary oondition, but Moore produced a letter from Labor Commis sioner Fitzgerald, declaring that the building was unhealthy. Justioe Uroezinger refused to recognize Fitz gerald's authority in the matter and gave judgment against Moore for $160. Today Fitzgerald accompanied by an officer, entered Groeziuger'l oourt room and announoed to the astonished justioe that he had come to place him under arrest for refusing to notice Fitz gerald's statement about the unhealthy condition of the building occupied by Moore. Uroezinger ordered Fitzgerald from the room undor pain of arrest, and the labor commissioner retired. ORDER OUT OF CHAOS. Formoeait. Submit Readily to the Rule ,Hon Kong, June 10 Advices from Formosa indicate chaos is rapidly giv iiiir way to order, now that the Japan' ese troops have reached Tai Peh Fu and established headquarters at that point Tbe natives of Formosa are submitting readily to the -rule of the Japanese. The Japanese losses during the military movements in occupying the island amount to only eight nien. The Chi nese carried away millions of dollars' worth of property from the Chinese fortifioations. During the firing whioh followed the detention of the steamer carrying the ex-governor and ex-President Chang Ting, who was making an effort to es cape from the island, seven persons were killed and seventeen wounded on the steamer. The German gunboat It lis replied to the bombardment from the fortifioations on the Foromsan shore, and the native gunners doserted their positions. The forte were quick ly sileuoed. Aooording to all reports thirteen natives were killed by the oan nonade of the Itlis Cut Hhnaelf While Shaving. Ukiah, Cal., June 10. Acase which is now attracting great attention among members of the medical profession in this county is that of Frank Green.who lives at Calpella, a small hamlet six miles north of this city. Some time sinoe while shaving Green out himself slightly at the point of the chin. The razor barely penetrated the flesh, and to an ordinary man the wound would have caused ouly temporary inconveni ence. Green, however, is subject to hemorrhage diathesis from the slightest puncture, and the surgeons agree that there is a possibiltiy of the result be ing fatal. Green is a member of a family in which these results from in cised or lacerated wounds is hereditary. Immediately after the infliction of the wound Green applied the usual reme dies to stop the flow of blood, but the flow continued, and it was not until medical assistance had been summoned that the flow was stopped, and even then relief was but temporary. The wound was inflicted on the 25th of May, and it has bled intermittently ever since. According to the theory of the physicians in charge of the case there is an utter absence of fibrin in the blood of Green, and as this sub stance is necessary to coagulation it is probable that death will result Coata Rica Preparing for War. New York, June 10. A special to the World from San Jose, Costa Rica, says: Everything possible is being done to put this country in a good position for defense. Tbe topograghy is such that sn invasion by Honduras and Nicara gua combined would be diffloult If the four other Central American repub lics combine against her, it is believed she will receive Colombia's aid, with which she can bold her own. Costa Rica will make no further concessions, but will rest on President Cleveland's decision with reference to the boundary. Erin's Flag on Fourth of nly. San Francisco, Jane 10.

Unless so made and nsed as a banner, no flag of any description will bt allowed In ths exercises. THE SULTAN REFUSES Will Not Agree to Demands of tbe Powers. PROPOSED REFORMS IN ARMENIA It la Believed Ureal Britain, France and Kuasla Pave Determined to Force Turkey to Comply. Constantinople, June 6. The reply of the Turkish government to the notes of the representatives of Great Britain, Franoe and Russia, regarding the pro posed reforms in Armenia, has been delivered to the envoy. The porte's answer is not satisfactory. Turkish gov ernment does not agree to the principle of the control of the proposed reforms by the powers. After receiving the re ply, the - envoys of the three powers held a meeting, at which they decided to refer the whole matter to their re spective governments. The situation is serious, as last week the British em bassy informed the porto that Great Britain had decided not to accept any modifications of the proposition effect ing reforms in Armenia, and the rep resentatives of other powers have made the same declaration to the porto. The reply of the Turkish government causes snrprise. It is thought such answer would not be given without encourage' ment from some European power, but the presence of the British Moditorran ean squadron, consisting of seventeen ships, at Beyrout, points to an agree' ment between Great Britain, France and Russia to force Turkey to comply with the demands of the powers. Consequently, interesting news may soon be flashed from Beyrout, Syria, where it is believed the British fleet will be called upon to support the de mands of the three powers. The meas ures whioh GreataBritaiu, France and Russia insist upon as preliminary to the reform, include the appointment of high commissioner from Armenia, general amnesty and release of all po litical prisoners, the revision of certain judgments and the appointment of a commission to sit at Constantinople, charged with the application of the re forms and working in connection with the high commissioner. it is also demanded by the powers that the governor and vice-governors of Van, Erzeroum, Sivas, Bitlis, Khar toum and Trebizond be Christian or Mussulmans, aooording as the popula tion of the places is inclined. In any case, however, either the governor or vice-governor of the places named is to be a Christian, and the appointment of these officials is to be approved by the powers. Taxes are to be collected by local and not by state officials, and enough is to be retained before the money is for warded to Constantinople to provide Ivi ILrT Cost of 1 iccaxgoveruiuent, as under the present system all tax money is first sent to Constantinople, and but little of it returns to Armenia. The powers propose to compel the porte to make radical changes in the judicial system, in order to insure fair trials, the surveillance of prisons and the abolition of torture, and the police is to be composed of Turks and Chris tians equally. Finally, the Turkish government is to be compelled to strict ly enforce the law against compulsory conviction of Islamism. As already cabled, when the sultan read the note of the representative pow ers, outlining the proposed reforms, he was not unfavoralby impressed. He had several conferences with the for eign ambassadors, and the Austrian ambassador urged him to aocqniesoe to the demands of the powers. But it was added at the time that the sultan appeared to be counting upon the moral support of Emperor William of Ger many, to whom be is known to have sent an autograph letter on the sub ject AN OFFICIAL INQUIRY. The (iovernment Will Investigate the Faulty Loading o the lollma. San Francisco, June 6. The federal government is said to have decided to make a thorough investigation of the Colima disaster, which oost so many lives. It is not improbable that the state authorities may take a hand in the affair, and there is already talk of criminal proceedings. These, however, are not yet a certainty. The federal inquiry will be insti tuted by Messrs. Talbot and Hillman, the inspectors of hulls and boilers. They are watching now for the return of the steamer San Juan, which is ex pected to enter this port Friday. As soon as she arrives, the third officer, O. Hanson, and all the survivors who may be on board, will be summoned as witnesses to an investigation whioh will be instituted without delay. The in quiry, it it intended, shall be thorough in every respect. One of the first questions to be dis- oussed in the investigation is the man ner in which the ship was loaded. Charges of the most serious character have been made, and if there be any truth in them it will be discovered. The most serious allegation in this part of the affair is that the ship was negligently loaded. Against August Hpreckela. San Francisco, June 5.
