B a t now
trade is depressed, enterprise is dead, failures are frequent,
and yet money is so abundant as to go a-begging daily fo t
THE
F IN A N C IA L
S IT U A T IO N .
Last week we noted a disturbance in.the commercial
situation caused by important failures in the dry goods
and in the iron trades. This week confidence has been
further unsettled by extensive disasters in the leather
trade. These recurring losses and suspensions have for
the time being proved very d is q u ie tin g ' besides, the
principal disaster of the week is of a kind that tends to
disturb credits materially everywhere and make business
paper more difficult to negotiate.
It is not wise therefore to treat as of little importance
such incidents in the commercial situation. They form
a feature which has been an element of the business out
look during the last two years.
In all we have written
the presence of such a condition has never been ignored,
but assumed as a necessary part of every period of mar
ked depression and contraction in values.
W e have
insisted simply that failures do not necessarily indicate
general commercial unsoundness, and furthermore that
there is no prevailing unsoundness now and no basis for
a panic, nor plausible ground upon which to rest an
apprehension of a general disaster, On the contrary, we
have claimed and still claim that our merchants as a class
are in a far safer condition toyday than they were two
years ago, and that the commercial outlook is in all its
leading features improving constantly.
a paltry one and a half or two per cent.
In fact, there
was a sale this week o f a million Connecticut State bonds
at a price that returns to the buyer but a trifle more than
3 per cent on m oney advanced for 19 years. Furtherm ore,
every month we are adding to the volum e of our currency.
W e are retaining all the gold produced by our mines, even,
if we are not im porting any at the moment, say nearly 3
millions a m on th ;
while as to silver,
another 2 9 @ 3 0
millions of circulating m edium is annually forced upon the"
country in the shape o f silver certificates, m aking about
65 millions from these two sources alone.
That is to say,
with m oney in profusion and increasing in volum e rapidly,

[From our own correspondent.!
L ondon , Saturday, July 21,1883;
The money market during the past week has been decidedly
active, and the cause of the firmness, if not stringency, which
prevails, is difficult to account for. The foreign exchanges are
generally favorable, trade continues quiet, in consequence of
which mercantile bills remain scarce, and the autumnal demand
for coin for harvest purposes has not yet commenced, or has
certainly not yet assumed any considerable proportions. There
has, however, been some eagerness in obtaining accommodation,
and’ t i e open market rate of discount being about equivalent
to the Bank of England minimum, the Bank has acquired
some important accession of business. Evidently the supply o f
funds seeking employment has become much reduced, and it is
now perceived that a more cautious policy is necessary. The
large number of “ calls” falling due each week upon shares in
new undertakings, and the heavy amounts which have to be
paid on account of recent loans, are absorbing a very considerabli proportion of the profits^of the country, and rest is now
ja^uired.

The money lent to the Australian colonies will ultimately

benefit from those transactions. Not only is the interest on
consols, the average quotation for English wheat, the price o f
those loans accumulating, but as the loans were for the purpose
middling upland cotton, of No. 40 mule twist, fair second quality,,
chiefly of extending the railway systems and for the creation
and the Bankers’ Clearing House return, compared with th e
of necessary public works, certain and important branches of three previous years:

The agitation throughout the country with regard to the
proposed extension of the Suez Canal has been considerable,
and in consequence of the opposition which the Government
scheme has met with, ministers have been unwilling to answer
the questions which have been put to them on the subject.
Sir Rivers Wilson has been to Paris to see the Messrs, de
Lesseps for the Government, and it is understood that he has
returned without inducing those gentlemen to modify their
terms. Parisian financiers are said to have undertaken to pro
vide the money required, but at what rate of interest is not
stated. There is a feeling in this country that the manage
ment of the canal should be conducted by a commission com
posed of gentlemen selected from each nation interested in the
canal; but the French will certainly be opposed to this, as
England would have a preponderating influence. Eighty per
cent of the traffic through the canal is British, and as mercan
tile profits have now become'so reduced, this country is
greatly interested Jn diminishing expenditures wherever prac
ticable. The Manchester Ship Canal, which will be a great
undertaking, will enable Lancashire manufacturers to obtain
the raw material at a reduced cost, and cheapness of produc
tion being a great necessity when competition is so severe,
every means will be adopted to reduce charges in all direc
tions. - A monopoly so great as that which is enjoyed by M. de
Losseps, and which he exercises pretty harshly, is irritating
the manufacturing, mercantile and shipping interests here ;
but the question should be treated with calmness, as a mutu
ally satisfactory arrangement is, no doubt, possible.
The Bank of England return shows changes not very differ
ent from those which had been anticipated.
There is an
increase of nearly .6850,000 in the total of “ other securities,’
but the supply of bullion has slightly diminished and the total
is now £22,159,459, against £23,665,108 last year. The total
reserve, however, owing to a falling off in the note circulation,
has been augmented by £166,181, and amounts to £11 812 694
against £12,771,863 in 1882. The proportion of reserve to i i b i l lties has declined from 42 30 to 41-41 per cent.

which has arisen, and the anxieties which prevail, have scarcely
any influence upon the wheat trade, which is still very
slow, millers showing no disposition to purchase in excess of
their actual requirements. In a few localities, the tone is re
garded as being somewhat firmer, an occasional advance of 6d.
per quarter having been obtained ; but the improvement is so
trifling as scarcely to deserve notice, more especially as prices
are still at a low point. A telegram just received from Hun
gary states that the crops in that country promise fair average
results, especially as regards wheat, rye and oats; but that the
yield of barley will be disappointing. W ith fine weather; the
yield of produce in Europe will be fairly satisfactory— a result
which should be congratulatory, as the sowing season was very
nnpropitious, especially during the autumn and winter mouths.

The Money M arket and F in a n cia l S itu ation .— The fail
ures in the shoe and leather trade during the past week have
increased the distrustful and conservative feeling which has
been so long prevalent. But the most careful observers are
satisfied that the causes of the failures are confined mainly to
that particular line of trade, and do not extend to mercantile
credit as a whole. The general features of “ over-production,
and consequent declining prices during the last year and a
half, which are at the bottom of the recent failures, in the
leather trade, have already had their effects upon some of the
other great lines of trade, and to a large extent these branches
o f business have been re-established on a new basis of lower
prices and diminished production. To what extent the Boston
banks m ay be affected, or how much they hold of the outstand' ing paper of the various suspended firms, is, of course, only
conjecture. But the strong competition in the production of
leather and the absence of profits, for the last two years, have
been well known to them for some time, and it is presumed
they have had sufficient warning to enable them to avoid a
concentration of losses that would cripple any one of them.
In other respects the general situation has improved. The
labor strikes have not been abandoned yet, but in some lines
o f industry agreements between employers and employees
have been reached, so that many of the operatives are return
ing to work. The most important of the strikes, the tele-'
graphers’, has not been settled, it is true, but that at least has
developed no further new or disturbing features. On the
other hand, there has been a general improvement in the
crop prospects in every part of the United States and Terri
tories, from Texas to Dakota and from Oregon to the Atlantic
„seaboard.
The supplies, of money offered for both call and time on
collateral security have increased in the last week, and at
times there were no borrowers on call, even at 1% per cent
per annum, while time loans on good collaterals have been
made as low as 4 and 4 % for 60 and 90 days, and even in a
fe w cases at the latter rate for six months. There has, how
ever, been no change in the rates of discount for mer
cantile paper; on the contrary the recent failures have
•Caused a much closer scrutiny of all paper offered.
The
payment of interest on the public debt and the interest
and dividend disbursements on corporate securities have
thrown a great deal of money into the market, which in the
present distrustful state of the public mind is seeking employ
ment in loans instead of investments, as it would under a
more normal condition of affairs.
The last statement of the New York banks, like the one pre
ceding, showed a change to a more conservative condition, by
a contraction of $1,105,800 in loans, but at the same time there
was a loss of $249,600 in the surplus reserve (mainly because
o f a decrease in the amount of specie held), leaving the total
surplus, "however, at $9,389,725, against $5,381,025 at the cor
responding time a year ago.
W h ile the tendency of the rates of interest was down
ward in New York during the whole month of July,
it was upward in London, though there has been no
further hardening of rates there in the last week.
The
higher rates of interest in London than in New York have been
instrumental in sust aining the quotations for sterling ex
change«; but it is believed that «as soon as our export staples
from the new crops begin to move out in large quantities— or
as soon, at least, as bills are drawn against such shipments— a
decline in the rates for sterling will take place, possibly to a
point later in the year that will permit of an important move
ment of gold to this country. There is not at present, nor has
there been for a month past, any sufficient movement of Ameri
can securities between New York and Europe to affect either
the rates of interest or of foreign exchange.
The weekly statement of the Bank of England shows an
increase of £353,000 in bullion, and the proportion of reserve
to liabilities has risen from 44% to 44% per cent. The Bank
o f France has lost 4,025,000 francs gold and 1,300,000 francs
silver, and the Bank of Germany shows a decrease of 1,937,000
marks.

Exchange.— The foreign exchange market has been very
dull the past week. The mercantile demand for remittances has
been comparatively small. On the other hffiid, the supply of
bills has also been small, while at the same time there has been
but little forward drawing against future shipments of prod
uce, owing to the higher rates of interest prevailing abroad
than here, and on Friday, the 3d, these features caused an ad
vance o f .% cent on the pound in the posted rates for sterling*
though it is believed the advance is temporary only. On
Tuesday, the 31st, however, there was some redaction in th e
posted rates for Continental exchange, which shows that the«
tendency is downward. The rates for sterling on Friday wereas follows : On sixty days, 4 833^@4 83% ; demand, 4 87@4 87% z
cables, 4 88@4 88% ; commercial bills, 4 82@4 82%.
Quotations for foreign exchange areas follows, the highest
prices being the posted rates o f leading bankers:

State and R a ilro ad Bonds.— The market for railroad bonds has been very dull during the week, though as a rule prices
have been firmer than in previous weeks. The foreign demand
for bonds is still very small, which is probably due, in some
measure, to the higher rates for money in all the European
financial centres than here. The most important changes of
the week were a decline of 4 per cent in Rome W atertow n <fe
Ogdensburg 5s and 1% in New Y ork W est Shore & Buffalofirsts and Texas
&
Pacific, Rio
Grande
D iv., 1st
6s. The principal advances were \% in Oregon Improve
ment firsts and 1% in Elizabethtown Lexington <fe Big
Sandy firsts. Other changes have been only fractional, the
majority of which were toward higher prices, while many areunchanged in any respect.
There has been scarcely any business in State bonds, and
such changes as have taken place in quotations have been un
important.
R ailroad and M iscellaneous Stocks.— The firmer feelin g
which was noted last week in the stock market as succeeding
the extreme depression of two weeks ago was continued on
Saturday, but received a check on Monday, since which time«
the market has been feverish and the volume of business
small. Two important causes of apprehension have, how
ever, been removed in the last two or three weeks, v iz .t
F irst, the fear of very serious damage to the wheat crop in
the Northwest, and, second, the apprehension of a war between,
the roads in the trunk line pool. The disappearance of these
depressing causes, together with the increasing abundance of
money, would probably have resulted in some considerable ad
vance in prices of stocks had it not been for apprehensionsabout the effect of the failures in Boston announced Monday
afternoon. Compared with last Friday the stocks of the fa r
Northwestern roads are nearly all higher, fet. P&m y-in”
neapolis & Manitoba being exceptionally so to the extent
of 2% per cent and Omaha preferred T per cent. The
“ Pacifies,” however, Union, Central, Canadian, and Denver
& Rio Grande, are all at least a fraction lower. The South
western stocks are all lower, the largest declines being 1% on.
Texas & Pacific and 1% on Missouri Pacific.
The Van
derbilt trunk lines have been firmer, as also have the coal
stocks. Am ong the specialties there have been the following^
changes, v iz.: Richmond «fe Danville, ^ per cent higher; Rich
mond <fe W est Point V % and Long Island 2. On the other
hand, Lake Erie <fe Western is 1% lower and Peoria Decatur

In addition to the net cash receipts, as shown above, the
company holds bills receivable and contracts for lands sold
amounting to $1,369,961.
Equipment was increased during the year by the purchase
of 40 locomotive engines, 9 passenger and baggage cars, 1,131
freight cars, 24 caboose cars, 5 tool cars and 1 pile driver.
A second track was laid on the Eastern Division from East
St. Paul to Post’s, from Midvale to Oakdale, and from Elmo to
Stillwater Junction, 8 miles.
“ Of the new lines in process of construction at date of last
annual report the Norfolk branch has been completed and is inoperation, 19 91-100 miles of track having been laid and the line
equipped with depot buildings, stock yards and water stations.
Terminal facilities at Norfolk, owned jointly with the Union
Pacific Railroad Co., afford excellent means of transfer with that
road. Connection is had at this point, also, with the Sioux City
& Pacific R. R. In Wisconsin the line of the Superior Branch
was completed from a point nine miles above Superior Junction
to a connection with the Northern Pacific R. R. near Superior
City, a distance of 51 42-100 miles. For the construction of this
line the company will receive ten sections per mile of valuable
pine land under the Wisconsin legislation of 1882. On the 4th
and 5th extensions of the Northern Division, 26 miles of track
was laid and ballasted, and considerable grading and bridging
done between the end of the track and Bayfield. A line was
graded into Ashland upon a location well calculated to accom
modate the business of the mills at that place and to materially
increase the lumber traffic of the road, -The track of the Chip
pewa Falls & Northern Railway, a proprietary road, was ex
tended from'Bloomer to within less than 3 miles of Chicago
Junction on the Northern Division, a distance of 52 miles, mak
ing a total of 149 33-100 miles new track laid on all divisions
during the year. It is expected that the grade of the Northern
Division will be finished to Bayfield ready for the track by July
1, 1883, a distance of 29 miles from the end of the track as at
present laid. *
* Grading and bridging of the branch to
Ashland are finished. This line will be ready for operation by
July 15,1883. Considerable ballasting remains to be done upon
the Superior branch,”

(For the yea r en din g June 30, 1883).
A t the annual meeting of stockholders held in Rutland, Yt.
Aug. 1 the result of the ballot was the election of the Clement
ticket * Fifty-five thousand shares were voted, the Clement
ticket"receiving 86,244 votes. Following are the newly-elected
directors : John T. Coolidge, George M. Barnard and James O.
Sargent of Boston; William W ills and Bradley B. Smalley,
Burlington, V t.; John W . Stewart, Middlebury, V t.; Charles
Clement and Percival W . Clement, Rutland, V t., and George H .
Ball, Worcester, Mass.

The directors report no change in the income ot the road
during the past year. The disbursements have been increased
bv the payments for scrip of $27,486, mostly on a judgment in
February last in favor of F. Chaffee, recovered after a long liti
gation. It has been for some time and until quite recently the
practice of the Treasurer to treat the rent of the road on the
last of the month for which it was earned as cash on hand, while
as a matter of fact it was not payable until the 25th of the fol
lowing month. This system has been changed during the past
year and the earnings for June appear as “ rent due and unpaid.”
This’will account for the statement of earnings being $236,500
instead of $258,000, as heretofore.
The payment of the
iudgment and the correction of the account as above referred
to explain the necessity for passing the dividend in February
last Reports have been sent to the stockholders concerning
the irregularities of the late Treasurer, both in the overissue of
stock and the misappropriation of the money of the corporation.
From an investigation beginning on or about the first of M ay,
and continued uninterruptedly until the present time, it appears
that the amount of preferred stock in excess of the legal amount
is at this date, 2,391 shares, and of the common stock 496 shares,
aud that the deficiency in cash is $42,717. In consequence of
these deficiencies, no dividend can be made at this time. It is
hoped that there will be realized from the property of the late
Treasurer a sum sufficient to reimburse the road for the cash
deficiencies, and from him, or the parties who hold the over
issued stock, an indemnity for the same.

There are yet 3 8 ^ miles of iron on the road, but this is
being rapidly replaced by the best steel rails, and it Is esti
mated that in four years the iron can be completely replaced

count. W h en that is done the present expense of maintenance
will be decreased about $22,000 a year.

assume all debts, and to forever operate the branch so as to
protect the original stockholders against any claims that may
arise, and to pay the interest on the mortgage bonds of the
road.
“ Since 1868 the Chicago & Alton road has been paying the
Jacksonville branch a fixed rental on the gross earnings of the
road, which rental was stipulated to be not less than $240,000
per annum. Last year it amounted to $424,000, and the pros
pect for this year was even greater, as the diversions from the
main line to the branch, from Bloomington to Godfrey, were
becoming greater each year in the handling of Western
traffic. Under the new arrangement, which will probably be
perfected in the course of a few months, the percentage o f
profits from this business will be divided among all of the
stockholders, and the necessity for a direct payment in rentsla'
of half a million dollars will be obviated.”
Connecticut State B onds.— The new bonds for $1,000,000

THE CHRONICLE.
Richmond & D anville.— In regard to the report that the
Senev syndicate had obtained control of the Richmond & Dan"ville system, Mr. Calvin S. Brice, one of the members of the
new syndicate, expressed himself himself as follows .
“ The report is true that a syndicate in which I am inter
ested has bought control of the Richmond & Danville road.
W e have secured about 28,000 of the 50,000 shares of stock
issued by the Richmond & Danville Company. Our syndicate
controls, besides our new purchase, the East Tennessee Vir
ginia & Georgia Railway and the Chesapeake & York River
'lin e of steamers that ply between West Point, on the
Chesapeake, and Baltimore, and has close traffic arrange-ments with the Clyde steamers, which run between New
"York and Philadelphia to all Southern points.
Our purpose is to confine all our railroad and steamship lines under
-one management, and equip and operate. the system m the
best possible manner. W e have made a, careful inspection
-of our new purchase, and feel well satisfied with its con
dition.” * *
“ The purchase of the Richmond & Danville stock was consum
mated Friday [July 27]. Of course it is too early yet to give
more than general information regarding our plans for the
future, but we feel sure that we have a most val uable p r o p e r ty one that already does a business of nearly $10,000,000 yearly, and
certa in to earn $12,000,000 to $15,000,000 yearly in the near fu
ture. The effect of the combination will be to add $500,000 to the
n e t earnings of the East Tennessee & Georgia Railroad Company
this year, and probably more than double that to the Richmond
& Danville system. Among the members of the syndicate are
George S. Scott, of G. S. Scott & Co., New York ; William P.
Clyde, of the shipping-house of W m . P. Clyde & Co.; Geo. T.
Baker and E. D. Fahnestock, of the First National Bank of Ne w
York ; and Messrs. Samuel Thomas, Geo. I Seney and Calvin
S. Brice of the Metropolitan Bank of New York.”
Mr. George S. Scott, who holds more than one-half of the
Richmond & Danville stock, said to a Tribune reporter that Mr.
Brice’s statement was correct, but expressed surprise that it
had been made. It had been agreed by the members of the
syndicate that the real ownership should be kept,-secret until
tne present directors had resigned their offices Mr. fecott said
that the two roads would not be consolidated, but that close
relations for the interchange of traffic would be established.
Mr. Seney refused to make any statement in regard to the mat
ter. Seaboard & Roanoke— Carolina Central.— A dispatch from
Raleigh, N. C., says Judges Bond and Seymour, of the United
States Circuit Court, have filed their opinion in the fruit of Virinia B. Mathews against the Seaboard & Roanoke Railroad
ompany and others. The opinion decides all the questions
raised in favor of the defendants. It is held that Mrs. Mathews,
by and through the action of her husband, Edward Mathews,
has acquiesced in the reorganization and reconstruction of the
Carolina Central Railroad Company. It is albo held that the
act of the special session of the Legislature of 1868, which says
that any railroad company within this State shall be at liberty
to take or purchase stock in or lend money to or purchase bonds
o f this or any railroad company in this or any adjoining State,
“ is still in force and has not been repealed or declared unconsti
tutional by the Supreme Court of this State.” This was the
main point in the case, as the, majority of the stock in the Caro
lina Central Company is held by the Seaboard .& Roanoke Com
p a n y,a Virginia corporation, and by the Raleigh & Gaston
and Raleigh & Augusta Air-Line companies, railroad cor
porations existing by the laws of this State. It is said the
case wifi now be carried to the U . S, Supreme Court by the
| plaintiff.
g
Sonora.— The Mexican F in a n cier of July 7, says that
some important modifications of the concession of the Son
ora railway have been secured.
The time for the build
ing of the lines of the company from Hermosillo to
Paso del Norte, and from Hermosillo to Alamos, has been
extended to six years, giving two years for making the sur
veys and four years for completing the roads. The company is
authorized to transfer the concessions for its lines to any other
company or companies. The company is obliged, for the new
concession, to pay $80,000, to be applied to the industries of
mining and agriculture.
Toledo Cincinnati & St. Louis.— A dispatch from Dayton, O.,
July 31, stated that Grenville D. Brannan, of Boston, brought
an't on 167 mortgage coupons of the Toledo Cincinnati & St.
Louis Railroad and constituent companies, and judgment was
rendered by confession. Willard White, Vice-President of the
road, was present in court and consented to the proceedings.
The coupons produced in court were some of them issued by
the Spring Grove Avondale & Cincinnati Railroad, some by the
Toledo Delphos & Burlington Railroad, some by the Cincinnati
Northern and some directly by the Toledo Cincinnati & St.
Louis. Mr. J.A. McMahon, the attorney for Brannan, says that
a petition to put the road into the hands of a receiver will be
\ filed early in the United States Court at Cincinnati. The state
m e n t in the bill shows a bonded debt of $22,000,000, unpaid
vouchers to the amount of $400,000, $2,000,000 indebtedness
for vhhich the equipment is pledged, besides a floating debt of
$964,06^: that a large amount of right of way will be lost unless
the purchase money is soon paid, and that 500 miles of the line
is mortgaged, and the creditors threaten to foreclose. At Cbieago/Vn the Federal Court, Judge Drummond on Aug.
1 appointed Edward E. Dwight, General Manager of the road,
to be receiver. MvwDwight at once qualified, and has taken
possession of the prflmerty.

The position of mercantil» affairs improves, notwithstanding
the important failures of the week in the leather trade. The
“ strike” of the telegraph operators continues, but the service
is better than last week. Other labor troubles have been ad
justed. The failure of boot and shoe manufacturers in Mas
sachusetts caused some uneasiness, but they were felt in nar
row circles only. Crop accounts have semewhafr improved.
Several large dealers from the extreme Southwest are ia town,

The speculation in lard has been more liberal. Telegraphic
communication between this city and the Western centres has
bpen quicker and more regular. A higher range of values has

ucuvei v ao tills marker,
has been quite brisk for the week under review, and the fluctu
ations in prices were wider than usual. The opening was
depressed. Crop accounts were less unfavorable, or at least
the apprehensions o f injury from drought and vermin were
gieatly modified, and there were free deliveries on August conracts. Saturday closed easier, Monday declined 6 (5)9 points,
and Tuesday opened low er; but a large business for export
J i t s % llberal freight engagements for Russia, France
and Ragland,.together with reports of the apnoarance of boll
worms in lexas and the repeated insertion of damage to the
ciop by drought, caused a dearer closing on- Tuesday an
advance of 14@16 points on Wednesday, and a further improve
ment of 3@ 7 points on Thursday, lc was asserted that a great :
heal of speculative manipulation entered into the advance
However this may be, it is certain that the improvement on'
lhursday was greatest in August and September and followed
an easier opemng in the face or stronger Liverpool advices '
lo-day the opemng was a few points off and further declined!
hut alter wards recovered, on adverse crop reports from Mem
phis, and the close was 1 point dearer for August and sli ditly
lower otherw ise^fD otton on the spot has been active for

following table is
prepared for the purpose of indicating the actual movement each
week from the plantations. Receipts at the. outports are some
times misleading, as they are made up more largely one year
than another at the expense of the interior stocks. W e reach
therefore, a safer conclusion through a comparative statement
ilk®, the following. In reply to frequent inquiries we will add
that these figures, of course, do not include overland receipts or
Southern consumption; they are simply a statement of the
weekly movement from the plantations of that part of the crop
wHicH finally roacliBS the market through the out-ports.

Fr id a y , P. M.. Aug. 3, 1883.
Flour, though firmer early in the week, has been dull and
rather depressed as a rule of late, freshly-ground flour being
the only kind held with much firmness, though winter wheat
brands have been much more easily sustained than spring wheat
grades, which do not keep so well. The production of the
[VOL. X X X V II.
Northwestern mills is decreasing, but the slowness of trade here
tends to offset any advantage which this fact might other
wise give holders. To-day the market was dull and weak for
most grades, though winter wheat brands and newly-milled
extras were firm.
Wheat, at a decline of 1 to 2 cents, has been less active for
export, and only a moderate speculation has taken place. The
crop advices from Europe have been more favorable, and the
export demand has fallen off partly on this account. From the
Western and Northwestern sections of the wheat belt in this
country the reports, though at times somewhat conflicting,
have latterly been favorable, and it is averred that the export
able surplus will be equal to that of last year. Spring wheat
has been in demand, but the sales have been rather small,
owing to the moderate supply available. W hite has sold very
sparingly, especially No. 1.
Of No. 2 red the sales have
decreased, partly owing to the scarcity of strictly prime grade ;
it is still charged that the standard has been lowered very ma
terially. The visible supply of wheat in the country is steadily
augmenting ; at Chicago it is large, because prices are so high
that shipments eastward are in a great measure checked. . The
telegraphic communication with the West is more regular, but
there is less life in the speculation than there was a few weeks
ago. To-day the market here, in response to higher prices in
Chicago, advanced % to lc ., with a fair degree of activity.
No. 2 red sold at $1 14 for August, $1
16% for
September, $1 1 7 ^ @ $ 1 18/6 for October, $1 26@$ 1 205/s for
November and $1 2 1 % @ $ l 22% for December. No. 2 red on
the spot recovered the decline to-day, with sales at $1 l 7 /6 @
SpjL 18 in elevator.
Indian corn has been less active, both for export and on
speculation, and prices have fallen 2 to 3 cents. The decline
has been in sympathy with a depressed market in C h e ago,
where the receipts have been increasing, The advices in regard
to the growing crop have moreover been favorable. To-day,
however, the speculation in Chicago caused an advance there,
largely through the covering of the shorts, and the market
here advanced % to %C ’, No. 2 mixed sold at 60%c. for
August, 60/6@6O%c. for September, 61c. for October and 60;%
@61e. for N -vemOer. Southern white corn sold at 66c. for
common on the wharf and 73%c. for choice ; yellow Southern
sold’ at 66c. on the wharf.
Rye has sold more freely, both on the spot and for future
delivery, at steady prices ; the trade has been mainly in West
ern. Malt has been more active at about steady prices. Oats
have been quiet for options at some decline, while lots on the
spot have at times sold fairly
The crop promises to be large.
To-day, in sympathy with other cereals, the market advanced
lc ; No. 2 mixtid.Hoid at 35%@37c. for August, 35% @ 36% c. for
September and 36@36% c. for October.
White oats are the
most steadily held here, being in light supply.

wants, the recent failures in other branches of trade, and theconsequent difficulty of marketing their own notes on reasonable
terms, has effectually checked all tendency toward speculation.
Retailers from remote sections of the country are beginning to
arrive in considerable force, but the jobbing trade has not y e t
become active, although a very fair business has been done by
a few of the larger firms who cater especially for the wants o f
small out-of-town jobbers and lara-e retailers.
D omestic Cotton G oods.— The'exports of domestics for tho
week were 2,054 packages, including 780 to Great Britain, 738
to Peru, 2b6 to Brazil, 114 to Central America, &c. The export
demand was more active, and some good-sized round lots were
sold at a slight advance upon the prices obtainable before the
recent trade sale of cotton goods. Buyers for home markets
continued to ^operate lightly, and in accordance with actual
wants. Leading makes of brown and bleached goods were in
fair request and steady in price, but outside brands were rela
tively weak, and slight concessions were occasionally made in
order to influence business. Cotton flannels continued to move
freely at unchanged prices. Colored cottons ruled quiet, and
certain makes of tickings, &c., were reduced, in conformity with
the lower scale of values made at the recent trade sale. Print
cloths were quiet and easier on the basis of 3 ^ e , less & per
cent for 64x64 “ spots,” 3 ^ c . flat for 64x64 “ futures,” and
3 l-16c. for 56x60s. Prints were less active than anticipated*
but prices remained steady. Ginghams were in irregular de
mand, and some large lines were closed out by leading jobbersat very low figures.
D omestic,W oolen G oods.— There was a slight improvement
in the demand for men’s-wear woolens by jobbers and the
clothing trade, but business in this connection was by no means
active, and prices continued in buyers’ favor. Some fair orders
for spring worsted coatings were booked for future delivery at
about 5 per cent below last year’s prices. Satinets were a trifle
more active than of late, and there were moderate dealings in
Kentucky jeans and doeskins. Cloakings, Jersey cloths and
repellents were severally in fair demand, and a good business
was done in flannels and sackings ; but blankets were more or
less quiet. Worsted and all-wool dress goods met with fair
sales, and hosiery and fancy-knit woolens were moderately
active, but shirts and drawers continued sluggish.
F oreign D r y G oods.— Aside from a few specialties, as British
dress goods, velvets and velvet ribbons, etc., in which there
was a very fair movement, imported goods were rather quiet.
Silks and Continental dress fabrics were slow of sale, and linens
and white goods remained dull. Lices and embroideries were
lightly dealt in, and men’s-wear woolens were in limited request

sued by wholesale and retail buyers has been attended with
such favorable results that its continuance is' almost a matter
of course ; and if a few of the more speculatively inclined have
latterly shown rather more disposition to anticipate future-
