reached a slightly greater aggregate than those for the preoedding week, New York e.xhibiting a gain of twenty -eight millions
of dollars, but the total for the rest of the country showing a
I0S.S of a little over twelro millions.
The increase at New
York, however, resulted mainly through increased activity at
the Stock Exchange.
The termination of the coke strike has
removed the apprehensions that many iron mills would have
to shut down.
Speculation in grain and petroleum was on a
smaller scale than in the previous week, and compared with
last year the dealings record a decided decline.
The business
failures for the week, as reported by Messrs. R. Q. Dun &
Co,, were 164 in the United States and
in Canada, or a total
of 201, against 210 last week, 216 the week previous and 233
lor the week of last year.
Contrasted with a year ago the week's clearings exhibit an
increase of 7-4 per cent, aU but eleven cities contributing to it.
The most important gains have been at Fort Worth, 105-5 per
cent; Dallas, 00-5; Denver, 57-2; Louisville, 33-8; Omaha,
26-9, and Peoria, 2G-5 per cent.
The exchanges at Duluth,
Los Angeles and Norfolk continue on a lower level than
during 1888 and in the present statement the losses at those
cities are respectively 52-5 per cent, 22 per cent and 13-7 per
cent. The declines elsewhere are generaUy small.

we have this week received from our varioug correspondents

During July the pre-
been excessive over the greater portion of the
and in a lesser degree in the northern portions
of the Gulf States and in Tennessee.
North Texas also experienced a heavy rainfall in the first week of the month, but
since then the weather has been generally dry and forcing.
Only in districts of Virginia, the Carolinas and Tennessee is
injury to any extent claimed on account of too much rain.
The temperature has iu the main been satisfactory.
The plant has made good progress in development almost
everywhere. In the Atlantic States the early plantings are
fully up to last year, but later sowings are from a week to ten
days behind. In Arkansas cotton is not so well advanced as a
year ago, owing to so much more rain in the current season
Elsewhere, however, it is well matured, and on the Gulf and
in Texas is stated to be in advance of last year in gro'wth.
There has been generally a steadv and in some cases rapid
improvement in condition during the month, and on the firs
of August the plant presented a strong and healthy appear
ance in by far the greater part of the South.
Cultivation has been thorough throughout the season whenever the weather would permit of it, so that the fields are
clean, except where the rains towards the close of the month
prevented field work. We have received complaints of grass
in Virginia, the Carolinas and Tennessee, but none worth reporting elsewhere.
A few bales of new cotton reached
market in July, the first Georgia bale making its appearance
at Albany on the 5th, and on the 23d the first Texas bale arrived at Houston.
Our conclusion is that there has been an improvement in
cotton during July in all States except Tennessee, and that
the greatest advance has been in Texas and Arkansas. The
conditions since the first of August have been favo.able, as a
rule, except too much rain in the Carolinas; at a few point
in Texas rain is saitl to be needed.
On the whole, there,
fore, the outlook is much more promising than at this time in
1888, and with favorable conditions from now on there is every
reason for anticipating a very good crop.

London, Saturday, AugiLst 3, 1889.
The London money market has during the past few day
had a foretaste of possible greater activity. During the week
ended Wednesday night gold amounting to £8"37,000 was withdrawn from the Bank of England, nearly all of it for France.
On Tuesday the Paris exchange upon London fell to 25 '14, and
it was feared in consequence that the drain -was about to assume formidable proportions. Indeed, it was reported that
arrangements had been made for withdrawing from the Bank
on the following day half a million sterling. On Wednesday,
however, the Paris exchange rose to 25'15, and as a result only
about a quarter of what was expected was taken out of the
Bank. On Thursday the Paris exchange rose further to 25-16,
and now it is anticipated that the drain is coming to an end

The redemption of the unconverted bonds is to begin

If
the report proves correct, there is no doubt that considerable
gold will be taken by Spam. As for the United States, you
are in a better position to judge than anybody here in London
can be whether gold will be required or not. But respecting
the Argentine Republic, it is certain that the Fmance Minister
do all that lies in his power to obtain gold.
There is little to report concerning the silver market. The
supply of the metal is very small, and consequently a slight

the Chancellor of the Exchequer introduced
for the re-coinage of light gold com?. The
measure
is to apply only to the light sovereigns

It is
estimated that the value of the light sovereigns

The two largest of our

The political apprehensions that have prevailed for
some time have quite disappeared. Everyone is now convinced
that peace is assured, at least for this year. The German
Emperor has arrived in this country. When he returns to
BerUn he will receive the Austrian Emperor, and later in the
month the Czar will paj his return visit at Berlin. At the
Mansion House banquet on Wednesday Lord SaUsbury made
a speech which has been very favorably received at home and
abroad, as he expressed his belief that peace will be maintained. The Prince of Montenegro has also made reassuring

The speculation in cotton for future de:
;Uis market
has increased some >v hat, and the general tendency of prices,
especLiUy for the next crop options has been upward, due
primarily to a gradual depletion of the sujiply of old crop
cotton and the oackwardness of the new crop. On Monday
prices were lower, owing to the favorable Agricultural Bure.iu
report received after "Change hours on Saturday. On TiiL-sday
there was a slight advant-e in respon.se to a ri.sc in Liverpool.
Large freight engagements for Liverpool were reported.
and more important advance
There was a further
on Wednesday, when the Liverpool market was again higher,
while the receipts at the ports continued light. There was,
moreover, a good di^mand for "short notice-i," for whii;h a
premium of 10 to 15 points over "regular" August was paid by
exixjrters, while spinners paid a premium of as high as 4.5
points over August for certificates representing dcsiraole cotton.
Some who at one time bought October an<l sold iJauuary
were reversing the straddle. Tliursday was the most active
in
some time, aud prices were again higher here. Liverday
pool moved up sharply, the sales there being liberal, notwithstanding the recent talk of a general short-time movement,
while there was a good demand here for spot cotton. On Friday there was a fiitther advance, due to a continued upward
movement of Liverpool prices, covering by sliorls and a good
demand for the actual cotton, as well as the scarcity and
firmness at the South. Cotton on the spot ha-s been firm" with
a steady demand both for export and cou'umption, and a
gradually diminishing supply. Middling uplaiid-s closed linn
15-160.
total sales for forw ard delivery for the week are 286,600
ba^es.
For immediate delivery the total sales foot up this week
11,423 bales, iucludmg .5,021 for export, 5,803 for consumption,

Receipts From the Plantations. The following table
indicates the actual movement each week from the plantations.
The figures do not include overland receipts nor Southern
consumption; they are simply a statement of the weekly
movement from the plantations of that part of the crop which
finally reaches the market through the outports.

The above statement shows: 1. That the total receipts from
the ])lantations since September 1, 1888, are 5,502,433 bales; in
1887-88 were 5,519,374 bales; in 1886-87 were 5,198,023 bales.

Tliat, although the receipts at the outports the past week
were 1,406 bales, the actual movement from plantations was
only 948 bales, the balance being taken from the stocks at
the interior towns. Last year the receipts from the plantations
for the same week were 15,308 bales and for 1887 they were
—
8,668 bales.
Amount of Cotton in Sight Aug. 16.—In the table below
we give the receipts from plantations in another form, and add
to them the net overland movement to Aug. 1, and also the
takings by Southern spinners to the same date, so as to give
substantially the amount of cotton now in sight.

Texas Cotton Crop. Tlie Galveston Daihj News of August
8 gave extensive reports on the cotton crop trom its various
correspondents tiu-oughout the State, which were summarized
and
—
editorially as follows:
The A'cwK presents the hist of its series of crop rejiort.' tiiis moraitiK. and
i8 pleased to call attention to the very flii: terini; pi-o.^pects for good crops
in all eoftions of the .State. The reports are almost tinanlninus la chronicllus; the host corn crop that has ever been produced iu Tex3s, while
the vicUl of other Kralu is fully up to an average. The cotton crop Is
undoubtedly a splendid one. The only complaint that is maile is danger from drouth, but as rains have occurred pretty generally throughout cast, central and southern Te.vas, with .good local rains in ether
eectioue, there is not much reason to fear disaster from that cause. Tho
reports bear dates from the 1st to the oth instant, and come from 2'JO
points in 100 counties. The conditlim of tlie cotton crop as compared
with iin average season Is shown in the following summary: 100 report
the condition as good, 70 as very good, 37 as fair, and 25 as not up to
the standard, or in bad condition, while 19 report but Uttlo cotton
planted. A noticeable fact is that almost without e.vceiitlon where the
condition of tho crop is reported as very good comparison is made wit'
the crop of 1882-83, which was the largest on record, Durlni tho past
fourdai 8 thesignal service reports rains at thefollowing stations in the
cotton belt: Galveslou, Houston, llearne, Palestine, Longview, Huutsville, Columbia, Or.inge, Brenham and Cu< ro, while the indications now
point to general ralna all over the State within a day or two.

with the trade generally rather small, though occasionally there has been tome
improvement in the demand. There has been a disposition
to sell Id flour in anticipation of larger receipts of new, and
c nc'ssions in prices have been found necessary to effect any
reduction in stocks. To-day the market was dull and rather
Flour has been more or

weak.
Wheat ha.s advanced owing to higher markets abroad, unfavorable weather in Great Britain, smaller receipts at the
West, light offi^rings here and a demand from shorts as well
as a somewhat better "spot" demand for Europe, and the
purcha-e of 150,000 bushels at St. Louis for lirazil, while
there have been reports of some transactions at Chicago and
Duluth for direct shipment to England. The Governmeut
report of the condition of spring wheat was not so favorable
as had been expected", and this fact had some effect on prices
at the opening of the week, but private rejjoris latterly have
been favorable, and though at times there have been rains in
the West which seem to have interfered with the marketing
of the crop, tlie weather has been better within the last few
days. To day tlie market opened easier with fine weather
here and abroad, but a decrease in the receipts at the West
caused a rally, and the ch sing prices were slightly higher,
little export demand.

since August 1, for each of the last throe years:
beginning to attract the attention of large wholesale buyers
for dress fabrics, white goods,
woven wash fabrics, lace curtains, etc., have already been
placed for future delivery. The Riverside & Oswego Mills
Company have made an assignment for the benefit of their
creditors and the attachments on the mils have been removed; hence the machinery is running again.

heavy worsteds, cassimeres and overcoatings. Prices
of clothing woolens are low and by no means remunerative
to the mills, but quotations are generally steady and
unchanged. Cloakings continued fairly active but selections
averaged light. Satinets were in moderate request and considerable deliveries of leading makes were made by agents on
account of back orders, but Kentucky jeans and doeskins
ruled quiet in first hands. Soft wool and worsted dress goods
were fairly active in movement and demand, and prices are
firm all along the line. For flannels, blankets, shawls and
skirts there was a light re assorting demand by wholesale
buyers, and a very fair distribution of these goods was made
by jobbers. Prices of the above goods are steady and unchanged. Carpets were in pretty good demand by jobbers and
retailers and quotations are unaltered.
FoRMON Dry Goods. Imported goods were more active in
the hands of jobbers, but business in importing circles was
hardly up to expectations. Considerable deliveries on account
of former transactions were, however, made by importers of
British and Continental dress fabrics, men's- wear woolens,
