3Ianley*s Estimate. Mr. Manley, of Maine, manager of Mr. Keed’s campaign, gives out the following as his estimate of the situation: Delegates elected for Mr. Heed, 162; for Uov. McKinley, 275; for all other candidates, 217; contested and doubtful, 05; Vermont, 8. Mr. Manley refuses to put the Vermont delegation in the McKinley column, llesajs the convention in Vermont was a surprise to the friends of Mr. Keed. They had a right to expect that Vermont would join with the rest of New England ami send a delegation pledged to the support of the New England candidate. Clarkson'fi View of the Situation. Washington. May 4.—Among republicans in Washington are Mr. Fessenden, member of the republican national committee for Connecticut, and Mr. Clarkson, for Iowa. The gentlemen had conferences with Senators Quay and Allison and other friends. Mr. Clarkson was asked: “Has McKinley a majority of the delegates already, and what of the claim that he will be nominated by acclamation ?” He re-

plied :

•'He has not nearly a majority yet. nor will he, In my Jiulgtmnt, enter the convention with a majority. Indeed, he will be shorter of a majority on the tirst ballot at St. Louis *han Hlaine was In the emotional year of 1876, Grant In 1880, or Sherman In 1828, when the tatter in a Held of 14 candidates voted for on the first ballot hud .T-'O votes. He will not be nominated by acclamation, because I can say positively that Allison, Quay and *Iorton will remain In the contest, and so surely will Keed, and I Judge so will Itradley and Guilt m. Allison has not the least idea of withdrawing, nor Iowa any idea of giving up the fight. 1 believe this is true for the other candidates and their states. McKinley will fall from bo to UK) votes short of enough to nominate at the start, and the field will represent from 525 to . avot - Lly the field 1 mean Allison, Keed, Quay, Kradley, Morton and Cullom, already suggested. and such other available men as Harrison, Lincoln, Foraker, Hobart, Davis and Gen. Tracy, of New York.” Mr. Clarkson further expressed the opinion that “the field" would hold firm. Deferring to his allusion to Gen. Harrison being In the available field of candidates, Air. Clarkson said: "In one respect Harrison would give the earliest certainty of anyone who could be nominated, for the day ne should be nominated, the country would know exactly what his policy as president would be on the tariff, and exactly what It would be on finance, and this would quickly bring confidence and good times behind it."

Threatened Failure* Prevented by Activity In Retail Trade. New York, May 2.—K. G. Dun & Co., In their weekly review of trade, any: 4, As the season advances there Is more business, but advices Indicate that on the whole the prevalent feeling Is that the gain is less than there was reason to expect, wrnllo retail trade has been active enough to materially lessen stocks and obligations, nnd thus to prevent great many threatened embarrassments. It has not yet brought enough new business to mills or factories to prevent decrease of unfilled orders and closing of some works. Substantially the same state of things exists In all the great industries, notwithstanding the strong combinations in some, and evidence < f inadequate consumption appears in the fact that the general range of prices of commodities, farm and mine as well as manufactured products, is nearly one per cent, lower than it was April 1. and the lowest ever known, the decline since October, 1592, being 16.7 percent. Nor cmn this be attributed to scarcity of money, which is easier and more abundant as the liquidation of many dealers lessens outstanding obligations. Foreign operations have been of no influence in American securities, hut shipments of silver have again been large. Stocks have remained practically without change. “Speculation has raised cotton an eighth, though receipts and crop prospects still favor lower prices, and accumulated stocks of unsold goods are very large. Wheat has declined 4% cents for cash. With only two months of the crop year remaining there is little to encourage higher prices. Silk has weakened a little owing to the overloading of Japanese dealers. Wool is weak, the wool year closing with the greatest quantity of wool on hand ever carried at this syuaRon. Woolen goods have not Improved in demand, and flannels have opened 5 to 15 per cent, lower than last year. Dress goods are helped by the restriction of foreign imports, but the association reports that on the whole, wool machinery is not more than half employed. Some cotton mills have ceased production. There is fair demand for boots and shoes, though not enougli to prevent gradual exhaustion of orders unflllcd, but the only change in prices has been a slight advance in some qualities. Leather is weaker, with a very narrow demand, and quotations average a shade lower, as do prices of hides. "The volume of domestic business shown by clearings has been $154,000,000 dally In April against o« . ''0 Just year; 13G,ouO,000 in 1K>4: $181,000,000 in 1393, and 188,000,000 in 1892. These figures show a greater shrinkage than appeared in recent months, and indicate that improvement is slow. “Failures for the week have been 238 in the United States, againstt 231 last year, and 31 in Canada, against 34 last year.” ILLINOIS RLPUBLICANS.

They Nominate Tanner for Governor ami Favor McKinley for President. Springfield, ill.. May 1. U|«m tlic reassembling' of the convention yesterday the stale ticket was completed as follows; For governor, John J!. Tanner; for lieutenant governor, \Y. A.

Fifer and William Penn Nixon, and they were instructed to vote for Mnj. McKinley for president. The platform announces the fealty of tho party In Illinois to the fundamental principles of*thc party: denounces democratic maladministration as having brought dis asters Instead of the blessings which that party promised: declares the administration of President Cleveland has caused almost as much loss by depreciation of property and almost as much misery as did the clvl! war of the '60s; declares Itself unyielding In the demand for honest money, and opposes any scheme which will give this country a currency In any respect inferior to the money of the most advanced and intelligent nations of the earth; favors the use of silver as currency, but to the extent only and under such restrictions that parity with gold can be maintained; reaffirms ils faith In the principle of protection, and pronounces strongly In favor of reciprocity—the reciprocity of James G. Hlaine; opposes extension of monarchical Institutions upon any part of American soil; advocates a vigorous and dignified foreign policy, and 1 condemns that of the present administration as vasclllattng and un-American; recommends strengthening of the navy and coast defenses: expresses sympathy with the Cuban insurgents; condemns Gov. Altgeld for failing to enforce the laws In perilous times, and his management of the state Institutions as extravagant, Inefficient and pa -’tlsan, and arraigns him for his failure to keep his ante-election promises to prevent the competition of convict with free labor. The resolutions also favor the submission to the people by the next general assembly of an amendment to the constitution providing that i-.e legislature shall enact suitable laws to regulate contracts and conditions that may from time to time arise between employers and their employes.
