We cannot furnish them to-day,
clearings being made up by the olearing houses at noon on
Saturday, and henoe in the above the last day of the week
has to be in all oases estimated, as we go to press Friday
night.

We present below our usual detailed

figures for the previous week, oovering the returns for the period ending with
8aturday noon, July 26, and the results for the corresponding week in 1901, 1900 and 1899 are also given. Contrasted
with the week of 1900 the total for the whole country shows
a gam of 18-0 per cent. Outside of New York the increase
over 1901 is 122 per oent.

by the St. Louis & San Francisco Railroad is an event
of considerable moment, and indicative of the great
changes going on in the railway situation in the
Southwest. The passing of the road to the San
Francisco Company comes decidedly as a surprise.
Other possible takers for the line had been suggested
almost without number, but there had been no
thought on the part of the public of the San Francisco
as a likely bidder. The San Francisco system at present
has no physical connection with the Eastern Illinois,
but that, of course, is not a matter of very great consequence, as the needed link can readily be built.

Memphis the St. Louis Memphis & Southeastern is
building a line in the interest of the St. Louis
& San Fiancisco. With the completion of this
road there would then be an entirely new route between Chicago and Memphis. The San Francisco
company has been adding greatly to its mileage within
the last few years, and the system has been thereby
transformed. It acquired the Kansas City Fort Scott
& Memphis, including the Kansas City Memphis &
Birmingham, which latter gives a line into the heart
of the South at Birmingham; also the Fort Worth &

Note.— In above stocks are included amounts reported held by the

Mr. Swank thinks it possible that the production of
the whole year 1902, notwithstanding the interruption
to furnace activity caused by the anthracite strike,
may exceed 18,000,000 tons. The number of furnaces
in blast on June 30 1902 is given as 286, this com
paring with 266 on December 31 1901 and with 259
on June 30 1901. The number idle June 30 1902 is
stated as 125, but these are mostly antiquated concerns.
Mr. Swank says 28 blast furnaces were in
course of erection on June 30 1902.
A few of these
will be completed and blown in before the close of
1902, but the majority, he thinks, will not be ready
for blast until 1903.
In addition to these new furnaces, several coke furnaces are projected and a number of old furnaces are to be rebuilt during 1902 and
1903.

What

has been said above makes it clear that large
though production has been, consumption has ran
much ahead of it. In the following table we take account of the changes in stocks so as to show the

Thus 8,851,360 tons remained for consumption and
first six months of 1902, against 7,746,504 tons in the first six months of 1901. But this
does not reveal the full measure of the difference between the two years. As a result of the situation prevailing our exports fell off and our imports largely increased.
As an indication of what has been going
on we may note that for the twelve months ending June 30 1902 we exported only 54,704 tons of
export in the

pig iron, against 255,253 tons in the corresponding
twelve months of the preceding fiscal year, while our

imports of pig iron reached 158,961 tons, against 39,325 tons. It should be added that in finished forms

The unexpected growth of population in the last
twenty, and especially in the last ten, years has also
been heightening the pressure, so that some disheartened persons have even pronounced the case hopeless,
because before any new factor in transportation can

have outgrown whatever facilities it can add.

cannot be utilized until there are through lines
instead of disjointed links. The crowding at
the Bridge is daily evidence of the fixed desire for a
continuous passage from workroom to bedroom.
Hence all bridges and tunnels must ultimately be connected. For merely getting the largest number per
hour across the river, perhaps some moving-platform
device might have a larger capacity than the Parsons
plan; but the merits of the latter are that it promises
to end concentration at the terminal, that it fits into
continuous movement and that it deals with the problem in a broad way.
For nothing can so effectually dispose of this crowd
which now converges at the bridge terminals like
streams into the neck of a funnel as to take it up at points
further back, thus virtually broadening the area of the
terminal, Bridge No. 2 emphasizes the idea of
through traffic by dispensing with terminals outright,
in which the other two bridges will probably follow
it; and one advantage of the Parsons plan is that it
proposes to abolish the present terminal station, utilizing the site for a municipal building, yet breaking
*»p the huddle at that point, leaving the bridge structure itself open to view, and giving the city an approximately dignified "bridge approach." It is now quite
evident that the city offices must ultimately be concentrated in a new and adequate building somewhere.

CAB SERVICE NOT INTER-STATE
COMMERCE.
The Court

of Appeals of this State recently ren-

dered an opinion in a case of considerable interest.
The point in dispute was the right of the State authorities to impose a franchise tax on the cab service
provided by one of our leading transportation systems.
The decision sustains the right to levy such a tax.
The reasons for this conclusion are set out quite at
length in the opinion prepared by Judge Cullen,
who notes that the importance of the question involved demanded exhaustive treatment. While the
amount of the tax in the present instance was small,
the effect of the decision would necessarily be farreaching.

reported that the surrendered Boers who have
towns and gold fields are not displaying as good a spirit as was anticipated. Especially it is said
that great animosity is shown by them towards those surrendered Boers who towards the close of the military operations took up arms for the British. Probably there is a great
deal of exaggeration in all this talk, but of course it ?g
natural that men who have been fighting for nearly three
years and find themselves almost destitute should be in a
bitter mood. As, however, they find employment they will
no doubt accept the inevitable. Meanwile, everything is
being done by the Government and the great capitalists to
aid in the development of the country in every way.
The earliest railway dividends have somewhat disappointed
the Stock Exchange. In reality they are as good as it was
reasonable to expect. The rate of distribution is somewhat
higher than at this time last year, and there Is a larger
amount carried forward to the new year. Moreover, it is
understood that no draft has had to be made upon the reserves. The accounts of the companies are not yet issued,
and therefore it is impossible to speak with any certainty;
but although the dividends are not up to the more sanguine
estimates of the Stock Exchange, they are fairly satisfactory.
For the moment it would seem that the bears are taking
advantage of every possible opportunity to knock down
prices; but in spite of that the general feeling is hopeful, and
upon the Continent there is decided evidence of a more conLastly,

IFrom our own correspondent.!

London, Saturday, July 19, 1902.
Business continues as stagnant as ever, though probably
the recovery in New York will lead to greater activity in the
American market by and by. Contrary to general expectation, there was only one small failure on the Stock Exchange
before this report was written last week. Since then four
others have followed, but with a single exception they have
been unimportant. It is believed that most of them weie
occasioned by the inability of outside Stock Exchange concerns, which had bought through the brokers to meet their
differences.
One of the failures is of a firm which was understood to have made a good deal of money during the last
three or four years. The leading partner had been in another
firm which he left about a year or two since and started for
himself. Although it is said that during last year he made
a good deal of money, his experience this year has been the
reverse. Still, the matter is of little importance outside the
Stock Exchange. It is members of the House who chit fly

In France the bill for the conversion of the three and a-half
per cents was speedily passed through the Chambers and
practically the conversion is an ensured success. The operation is of course not quite complete, but to all intents and
is carried through.
Both in France
and in Germany interest is now centered in the conversion
of the Turkish debt, which has been under consideration for
a long time past. The appointment of M. Rouvier to the
Ministership of Finance of France, it was feared for awhile
would delay the operation, but apparently he has found
others to take his place, and his plans, it is said, have been
approved by the Turkish Government. In Germany there is
a more hopeful feeling and the prospect of the harvest in Germany itself is fairly good, while it is exceedingly good in
Hungary and is reported to be decidedly good in Russia,

The general impression now is that the forced liquidation instalment on the loan. Consequently, the Bank of England

Another thing that is causing some disappointment is a

President Alexander Agassiz says in substance:
We have continued to push the openings on the conglomerate belt

Red Jacket shaft, but the charaoter of the lode
has not Improved In depth. The machinery to operate the Osoeola
amygdaloid lode Is slowly being delivered; meanwhile It has been
deemed best to discontinue underground work upon this lode.
During no year, perhaps in the history of the mine has so large an
equipment been added by the company as during the past year. The
Superior compressors have been remodeled, eleotrio pumps have been
placed in No. 7 Hecla shaft, additions to the drill shops have been
built, also a new change house for Nos. 7 and 8 Hecla shafts and a new
nianholst and Its building for the same shafts. We have extended our
railroad on the back of the lode, and have purchased two new locomotives. We have built twenty-rour houses for the men and two for
the officers. The addition to the Hecla mill is finished and the equipment for same is progressing favorably. One head is ready to go
into commission; the others will follow In rapid succession. The
house f i»r the new 60-foot sand wheel has been ereoted. The new
steel eleotrio power house to drive the mill and sand wheel has been
ereoted. and the foundations are reidy for the mala driving engln e,
which has been moved to the lake from the Heola hoisting engine
house. The new timber mill at the head of Torch Lake will sli >rtly be
at work.
At the Lake Linden smelting works five large furnace i have been
rebuilt. This change will result la considerable economy In smelting.
At the Buffalo smelting works the new electrolytic plant has been
completed and a new wharf has been built.
The results for four years have been as follows:

at St. Therese Rapids, three miles above the Chambly power house, has
also been commenced, and It is expected that will be completed
some time next winter. This development will add largely to the
water power of the company, as well as doing away with any possible
interference by frazil. Tne new central eleotrio transforming station
on Queen Street is now nearlng completion and will be the most
modern and complete station on the continent.
The Increase in the output of gas for the year has been 54,291,000
oublofeet. The use of gas for fuel purposes continues to inorease most
satisfactorily. There have been installed during the year 2,010 gas
stoves, 3,148 meters, 1,090 new services, and 69 miles of new mains
have been laid. The inorease in the eleotrio department has also been
highly satisfactory. During the year 13,918 incandescent lamps, 35
arc lamps and 79 motors (equivalent to 756 horse power) have been
added to the company's ciroults.
The contract for the oity lighting expiring In 1904, the city called

The term of eaoh olass is to be five years, exospt that upon the organization of the company the first olass shall serve until the fifth annual

The board of direotors has the power to dispose of any of the company's properly or mortgage it, and to determine if, when and to what
extent the book* or aooounts may be. opened t» the inspection of
stockholders. The direotors also have the power to vary the amount

with an issue of trust certificates of the St. Liuis&San
Francisco, such as were use! to take up the stock of the
Kansas City Fort Scott & Memphis, the common stock of
the Eastern Illinois to be exchanged on the basis of about
$100 par value for $250 in trust certificates, interest on which
Ia
will be guaranteed at the rate of 4 per cent per annum.
that event the holders of the $7,197,800 common stock of the
Eastern Illinois will receive the equivalent of a guaranty of
10 per cent on their holdings.
Arrangements for a physical connection of the properties,
we are advised, have been practically completed; presumably
by use of one of the existing lines between St. Louis and the
C. & E. I. The Bvansville & Terre Haute is not included in
the deal. Officials of the 'Frisco disclaim any knowledge of
other interests beinsr back of them in the acquisition of the
Chicago & Eastern Illinois, as has been rumored during the
week.
Denied. The Texas Railroad Commission has again declined to approve the^request for permission to lease the Paris
& Great Northern and the St. Louis San Francisco & Texas
railroads, on the ground that the lease of lines within the
State to a corporation whose lines are wholly without the
State would be unconstitutional. This is in accordance with
the opinion of Attorney General C. K. Dell, who holds that
the Act of the Legislature authorizing leases when approved
by the Commission is unconstitutional. V. 75, p. 30.

and while there have been only slight changes in prices the
tendency has been towards a lower basis. July contracts went
out without any flurry in prices, and this fact, coupled with
the advices received from Liverpool reporting a quiet and
easier market for spot cotton have had their ioflaence against
values. There has been some liquidation by speculative holders of August contracts, induced by the reports that the movement of the new crop will be early. Daring the first half of the
week fear of damage to the crop in Texas by floods and advices
received from some sections of the Atlantic 3tates, complaining of dry weather had their influence in favor of the market.
At the close, however, the rains in Texas, it is reported,
have ceased, and the indications pointed to the fall of needed
rains in the Atlantic States. Wall Street interests have been
reported moderate sellers during the week of the new-crop
deliveries, based on the generally favorable outlook for the
growing crop. Tc-day there was a slight upturn in prices on
shorts covering in anticipation of the Bureau report due on
Monday. The close was quiet but steady at a net gain in
prices for the day of 2@5 points. Cotton on the spot has been
quiet and prices have weakened slightly, closing at 3 15-16c.

progress, the plant being heavily f raited. General and heavy rains
in Texas were very beneficial in western counties, but they were not
needed elsewhere in that State. These rains have caused very rapid
growth and the plant is heavily fruited, but considerable damage by
boll weevil, boll worm and shedding is reported. Hot and Cry weather
is now needed in Texas to permit cultivation and check ravages by
Insects. Picking continues in the southern counties and has oommenoed in the oentral oountles, but has been retarded by freqient
rains.

of the crop news from both the West and Europe, and the
larger receipts, have prompted the bear interests to be more
aggressive in their operations, and there also has been moderate selling for the account of speculative holders to liquidate
their long contracts. During the latter part of the week, at
the decline in prices, exporters came into the cash market as
free buyers, and this buying had a tendency to give a slightly
better undertone to values. The reported sales to exporters
for the week, here and at outports, amounted to close to
8,500,000 bush. There has been a limited amount of No. 2
red winter wheat delivered during the week on July contracts. To-day there was a steadier market on smaller receipts and scattered buying by shorts to cover contracts.
The spot market was modeiately active and firmer.

Government Weekly Grain Report.— Mr. James Berry
Chief of the Climate and Crop Division of the U. S. Weather
Bureau, made public on Tuesday the telegraphic reports on
the grain crops in the various States for the week ending
July 28 as follows:
Weather.— Drought of considerable severity generally prevails
from Virginia and the Carollnas westward over Kentucky, Tennessee
and the northern portion of the central and east Gulf States, lnoludlng
Eastern Arkansas, Southeastern Missouri, and the southern portions
of Illinois and Indiana, while heavy and damaging rains have continued in Texas, portions of the Missouri Valley and lower Lake
region. Rains are generally badly needed in the central and southern
Rocky Mountain districts. The temperature conditions have been
highly favorable, except in New England, New York and Texas,
where it has been too cool, and in California, where excessive heat
has caused some deolduous fruit to ripen faster than it oould be
handled.

Corn.— The corn crop has experienced another week of exceptionally
favorable conditions over muoh the greater part of the principal oorn
area, the least favorable reports being received from southeastern
Missouri and Southern Illinois, where the crop is being injured by
drought. A fine yield Is promised in Kansas, Nebraska. Indiana, and
over muoh the greater part of Missouri, Illinois and Ohio. In Iowa,
where the crop has suffered muoh in previous weeks from heavy rains
and laok of cultivation, corn is improving, and in the early fields Is
earing heavily. In the Middle Atlantic states and to the southward
of the Ohio River corn has suffered muoh from drought in seotlons,
especially the early planted.
Winter Wheat.— Showers have prevented the completion of wlnterwbeat harvest in the Lake region, New England, and the northern
portion of the Middle Atlantio States, where damage to wheat in
shock is quite extensively reported; elsewhere harvesting is completed, except on the Paoiflo Coast, where it is progressing rapidly in
Oregon and has begun In Washington.
Spring Wheat.— Late spiiuj: wheat needs rain in portions of South
Dakota and rust is appearing in North Dakota; but on the who.e its
oondition Is very promising. The crop is ripening rapidly in the
northern portion, and harvesting has begun in the southern portion of
the spring-wheat region. In portions of Southeastern Minnesota
fields are too wet for the binders.
Oats.— Oat harvesting is progressing under dillloultles in the upper
Mlslssippl Valley and Lake region, where the crop Is badly lodged and
tlelds in some sections are too wet for the reapers.
Notwithstanding
these adverse conditions, the general outlook for a large yield is
favorable, especially In the Missouri and upper Ohio valleys and the
northern portion of the Middle Atlantio States.

Indian corn futures have been quiet locally, but there ha^
been a moderate amount of activity to the trading in the
Chicago market. The July contracts in the latter market
went out without any further flurry in prices, which was
taken as evidence going to cod firm the statements made by
the bull clique that the outstanding short interest made a
The movement of breadstuff's to market as indicated in the
private settlement earlier in the month. It now appears that statements below is prepared by us from figures collected

Conditions in the cotton goods division of
not improved duriDg the past week from the sellers' point of
view. The home demand, although better than at the beginning of last month, is quiet for the time of year, while
there is an atsence of business on export account except in
small quantities for the subsidiary markets. Sellers are slow
to declare open changes in quotations, but there have, nevertheless, been reductions made openly in wide sheetings and in
kid-finished cambrics, with business done quietly at lower
Erices than before in some lines of heavy cotton goods. The
ardenirg tendency recently noted in the print- oloth market
has disappeared also. The tendencies of the week have thus
been in favor of buyers. At the same time it must be noted
that the easy tone is not all-pervading. Fine yarn-finished
goods for next spring season have been liberally ordered, and
are firm in tone, while the gingham division is quite strongly
situated.
The chief feature of the week in the woolen goods
division has been the opening of men's-wear worsteds at a
general advance ranging from 2J£c. to 5c. per yard. The gen
eral jobbing trade is reported quiet.
Woolen Goods.— considerable number of sellers have
opened lines of clays, serges, cheviots, fancy worsteds, etc.,
in light-weights for men's wear for next
spring. These
show, as already noted, advances of 2>£c. to 10c. per yard,
compared with opening prices for the current fall season.
Buyers have been in attendance in goodly numbers, and a
fair amount of business has been booked for the new season.

Foreign Dry Goods.—A fair amount of business is reported in foreign dress goods, with a firm tone in the market,
Silks and ribbons have been in moderate request at firm prices.
Linens are quiet put prices maintained. Burlaps are in light
demand only and easier to buy than of late.

THE DRY GOODS TRADE.
Yoek, Friday, P.

Week. Since Jan.

The value of the New York exports since Jan. 1 to date
hpa been $7,879,977 in 1902, against $7,099,121 in 1901.
Wide sheeting, such as Pepperell, Androscoggin, Utica and
Mohawk have been reduced %q. to lc. per yard, a decline of
5 per cent, and a reduction of )^c. per yard has been made
in leading lines of kid-finished cambrics.
The response
to these lower prices has been moderate only. In heavy
brown sheetings and drills the market oontinues dull. Home
buyers confine their purchases to limited quantities with
nothing of any moment doing for export. Prices are irregular, with a general tendency in favor of buyers.
Light
weight fine yarn grey goods are quiet at previous prices.
Business has again been quiet in bleached cottons, but prices
are generally steady. Cotton flannels and blankets are unchanged. Denims are slightly easier in some quarters and
tickings are irregular.
Other coarse, colored cottons quiet
and unchanged. The demand for staple and fancy prints has
been of late ordinary character, with a steady tone. Fine
printed fabrics for next spring continue in fair demand.
Shortage of ready supplies is the chief feature in the gingham
division, with production sold ahead for a considerable time
to come. No business has been reported in regular print
cloths, unchanged at 3c. nominal, and th9 market has ruled
quiet for both narrow and wide odds.
