NEWS POSTSCRIPT. 
WAR NEWS. 
Many rumors aud contradictory assertions hate 
been current during the past weak. The most 
Important Item of news Is that which relates to 
negotiations In progress to bring about peace. 
This has been repeated wit h great persistence, 
and may have some basis In fact. The weather 
has been very unfavorable for military opera¬ 
tions on the Danube, and continued delay is re¬ 
ported from that quarter. The Russians are said 
to now have 940,000 men in position along the 
river, their lines extending from Galatz to Kala- 
fat. Besides this Immense, force they havo 60,000 
reserves, without reckoning the Roumanian army. 
The high water In the Danube will prevent their 
undertaking the passage of that river for at least 
three weeks. The heavy work or the campaign 
will thus be postponed till mid-summer, when 
the severe heat may be expected to tell fearfully 
upou the health of both armies. 
In Asia Minor the weather has Improved 
and considerable progress has been made by the 
Invading army. Kars Is completely invested, and 
two strong Russian columns are within six days’ 
march of Erzeroum, the capital of Armenia. A 
Circassian cavalry force of 4,000 was surrounded 
on Its way to Kars, and almost annihilated by 
the Russians. 
The precise positions of the Russian advanced 
corps in Asia, are stated to be the towns of Oltl 
and Klzll-Kailssaand Souganlu ML. Those points 
are far west of Kars, and Mukhtar Pasha’s posi¬ 
tion at Sevin is rendered untenable, and hts fur¬ 
ther retreat la probable, Great discouragement 
Is said to exist at Constantinople, and the utter 
weakness of their forces seems to be fully recog¬ 
nized. Thereto nodeflnlte news as to the progress 
of the Circassian revolt. The Turks claim another 
victory near Sukum-Kaleh, In which they cap¬ 
tured eight guns and compelled the Russians to 
throw 17 others Into the River Kodra. 
In the rope walk of Wall Brothers, In Brooklyn, 
was recently manufactured a Manila rope, 1,500 
fathoms, or 1J£ miles long. It Is Intended for a 
rocket line to ho tired from the seashore across 
the decks of stranded vessels. . *

^Beans and Peas.—I t is about tlio former story 
for ti. ariM, Trade la moderate with the reduced wants 
of summer, and high prices lieru tend to diminish 
the demand, Holders, however, uro not pressing 
any grades of good quality, and feel Hint they are 
masters of tlio position for the rest of the season.

Butter,—T he demand forHtato Ims been unsteady 
and prices have drooped almost dally. Creamery 
and pails aru largely In excess of trade wants. This 
class of package* have to ba used locally, os distant 
buyers who draw supplies from here object to re¬ 
turnable palls. Western bus nor ilie clear fluid it 
had bo'ore the easy rates for .Slate, but It Is not h 
satisfactory market when quality has to be sacri¬ 
ficed In order to coax a trade. The demand tnrtn- 
klnal3 good for nome shipping use. I oil the color Is 
not strong enough. This scorns a little singular. as 
other packugeshave mostly a full grass tint. Gen¬ 
eral receipts ure hd*vy-3O,0OO package* for the week
