We have written with reference to these figures, or at least those relating to the breadstuffa exports, in a subsequent column. The July report of the National Agricultural Bureau on the cereal crops has been adversely construed, and this unfavorable interpretation used as ono of the agencies for hammering down prices on the Stock E xchange; but all things considered, we do not see how the agricultural situation could be more nearly in ac cord with the country’s requirements— in other words, the crop prospects are just about as would naturally be desired. To be sure, the Bareau reports the condition o f both winter and spring wheat low— the one 77'7 and the other only 74-1— and as these figures agree in the main with private and unofficial advices, there can be no doubt that the yield of wheat the present year will be small. But a short wheat crop at this juncture, with prices so extraordinarily low, is by no means a national calamity. Large supplies of wheat are held in reserve from previous crops, and, besides, a reduced yield now should have the effect of ensuring better prices for these supplies. In any event there is no likelihood of a dearth of wheat for export, and as much of the old supplies has not yet Deen marketed, the railroads are certain also to have a large traffic in wheat, though of course in special instances where the crop shortage is most pronounced (as for instance in Kansas) the traffic may not be as large as in 1892-93. N o one therefore need give himself much uneasiness regarding the poor prospects for wheat. On the other hand, a good corn cr >p is of very great importance, both to the railroads and to the agricultural and industrial community as a whole. C msequently it is very encourag ing to know that the outlook for that crop isatthis time in every way satisfactory, and that unless this prospect 1893. States . Iow a......................

It will be seen from the foregoing that besides the improvement in condition the Bureau also reports an increase in the acreage in corn— 3 3 per cent for the country as a whole. The Louisville & Nashville directors have this week declared the usual semi-annual dividend of two per cent, and submitted a preliminary statement of the operating results for the fiscal year euding June 30, 1893, which must be very gratifying to the security holders o f the company. The last cotton crop, as is known, was a short one, and the general industrial situ ation in the South has been by no means satisfactory, but notwithstanding these adverse influences the company is able to report an increase in gross earnings for the twelve months of $1,104,074 and an increase in net earnings of $587,493. During the same twelve months the gros3 earnings of the East Tennessee fell off about $525,000. Doubtless when the vast combination of roads embraced in the Richmond Terminal system has been reorganized and placed in sound physical aDd financial condition, increased competition from that source must be expected, and possibly the Nashville may lose some traffic on that account. The position of the company, however, as regards its income is very strong. The statement before ns shows that for the twelve months there is a surplus above charges and the 4 per cent dividends of $400,776.

J u l y 15, 1893.1 THE CHRONICLE. an obvious mistake in the matter of supporting the bullion market as well as in every other particular, and hence in stop ping purchases there is no need to antici pate more than a temporary unfavorable result, with a subsequent recovery as soon as affairs get adjusted to the new conditions. One other phase in the silver situation is used for the purpose of puzzling the public, and that is the new relation India has assumed to the metal. It is argued that as au early consequence, Europe’ s gold supply will be heavily drawn upon; that the affairs o f every financial centre in the old world will be thrown into confusion; that there will be many and important failures in London; and finally that ludia’a effort to establish gold payments will also fail. This is a long series of mishaps, hung upon the single peg that India will at once give up its love and demand for silver and transfer them to gold, and consequently will require a large gold balance to support gold payments. We have referred to this point recently, but the past week we have received and read over the full report of the committee of which Lord Hersenell was chairman. A fter reading the report we are only confirmed in our views expressed last fall* as to the ease with which the change can be made and the little friction to be produced in making it. The great calamities which are suggested like those relating to the loss the country will suffer by reason of the lower price of silver bullion are all pictures of the im agination, the most o f them conceived and shaped by those who are interested in disturbing or preventing the restoration of a healthy condition o f affairs. It is not at all unlikely among the results which a repeal of the Silver Purchase Law of 1890 will produce that we may be able to number a willingness on the part of Europe to unite upon some method for a larger use of silver in the currencies o f the world. But, as we have already said, aside from these influ ences, the events of the week have as a rule been favorable. They need not be enlarged upon here, for they have been already referred to in a previous article. It is, however, well enough to add that signs are accu mulating of an increasing interest of the public in the question of the day, and that the repeal of the ob jectionable law is becoming more and more assured. Now that the movement for repeal has gained in force it should not be allowed to lag. As we stated last week, let the communities everywhere be organized, and let them keep their representatives in both houses of Congress constantly informed of the distress their constitnencies are suffering and of the need there is for haste. Already there are undoubted signs of the com ing great change in our commercial affairs which we are to enjoy in the full when this repeal has been effected. Instead of sending our best currency out of the country faster than we were able to manufacture the worst, as we have been doing for two years now, gold is beginning to come back from many points. This movement to be sore is small, bat it is a first evidence of returning confidence in the reviving sanity of the people o f the United States. It is a mere forerunner, a tell-tale, of that flood of new capital which is sure to flow into this new country when the hope which has begun to be en tertained in our determination to have a sound cur rency. a sure measure of values, shall have become by our action an accomplished fact.

The Bureau of Statistics at Washington has issued very promptly the preliminary statement of the breadstuffs exports from the U nited States for the month of June. We need hardly say that the. figures possess very decided interest. Jane closes the Government fiscal year, and in the foreign commerce of the lata year, as well as in the change from the preceding year which has been so marked, the breadstuffs exports have played a very prominent part. The June figures being only preliminary, we cannot give as yet the exact results for the year, but the totals are certain to prove a very close approximation to the actual results, and such changes as may be found necessary by the later and final re tarns must be slight and cannot in any event have any appreciable effect on the general aggregates, especially as we are dealing with totals of very large magnitude. The first point to attract attention is the great de crease in the value of the shipments for the twelve months as compared with those of the twelve months preceding. Our readers are aware that our aggregate merchandise exports have fallen much behind those of the previous fiscal year. The tables we have now com piled show that a great part of the whole loss occurred in breadstuffs. In 1891-92 the aggregate value of the breadstuff* exports was 299 J million dollars, for 1892-93 the total is about 199J million dollars, so that the de crease is just about one hundred million dollars, which certainly is a striking and an important difference. Of course sight should not be lost of the fact that in comparing with 1891-92 we are com paring with a year of extraordinary and phe nomena! totals. When the returns for June from a few minor customs districts which are not embrac'd in the oarlv preliminary statement are re ceive'!, doubtless the value of the breadstuffs shipments for 1*92-93 will aggregate close to 200 million dollars, and that is a total of no ordinary magnitude. In 1891 (1890-91) the value of the breadstuffs exports was only 128 million dollars, in 1890 not quite 155 millions, in. 1889 1231 millions, in 1888 127 millions, in 1887 165£ millions, in 1880 1253 millions, &c. These compari sons with other years are useful iu making more ap parent the true dimensions of the late year’s export totals. As a matter of fact, excepting 1892 we would have to go back a whole decade, to 1883, to get a larger total than that for the late year. It has happened, indeed, only five times that the value of the breadstuffs exports has exceeded the two hundred million mark ; the favored and exceptional years were 1891-92 already mentioned, with exports of 299 millions, 1883 with exports of 208 millions, 1881 with exports of 270 millions, 1880 with exports of 288 millions and 1879 with exports of 210 millions. What is true of the breadstuffs export values as a whole i3 true also of the wheat aud flour exports, which indeed form the largest item in the same. For 1892-93 the value of the wheat and flour exports is 8108,533,217. This compares with 8236,761,415 for the year preceding, but with only $106,125,888 for 1891, $10.2 312,074 for 1890, $86,949,186 for 1889, $11.1,019,178 for 1888, &c., it being necessary to go back to 1883 (if the exceptional total of 1892 is disre garded) to find a total larger than that for the late year. In the case of the q u a n tity shipped, the result must be surprising to those who have not kept dose watch. THE CHUONLOLE. 82 of the statistics during the progress of the year. Of course the shipments for the late year have not equaled those of 1891-92, which, as already stated, •were phenomenal and extraordinary; hut so much has been made of the falling off from these exceptional totals, and references to Europe’ s dimin ished requirements by reason of the better crops raised in 1892 have been so frequent, that many per sons no doubt have received the impression that the outward movement of wheat has been on a small rather than on a large scale. This erroneous impression would also he encouraged by the fact that because of the low prices received the loss in values as compared with 1892 has been much larger relatively than the loss in the quan tity shipped. We find that of wheat 115,935,239 bushels were shipped for the twelve months, and of flour 16,704,213 bbls, the latter being equivalent to 75,168,958 bushels of wheat, making the grand aggregate of the wheat and flour exports 191,104,197 bushels. This is only 34 million bushels less than the amount for 1892, and with that exception is the heaviest on record— heavier even than the shipments for 1880 or 1881, years which up to 1892 stood unexcelled for their large exports. As against the 191 million bushels exports for 1892-93, the exports of flour and wheat in 1891 were only 106 million bushels, in 1890 109J million bushels and in 1889 8 8 f million bushels. It is worth noting that a steadily increased proportion of the exports is going out in the manufactured form — that is, in the shape of flour. The flour exports for 1893 were actually larger than for 1892, and in fact were decidedly the largest in the country’s history. VALUES OF EXPORTS.

LVK. Notwithstanding these very large shipments, we are holding now in this country, as is known, very heavy available supplies of wheat. Obviously, however, it cannot he claimed that these supplies have accurnu* lated because Europe has not bought very freely of our wheat, for she has— haying taken less only than the extraordinary quantity taken in the year preceding. The explanation, then, of the heavy accumulations must be sought in our enormous crops of 1891 and 1892, which it now seems to be generally admitted were underestimated by the Government authorities. A very unfavorable feature in the year's results has been the low prices realized for the exports— a fact o f course for which the large supplies, including a heavy visible stock in elevators and at storage points, are chiefly responsible. The average price of the wheat exports for the late year is less than 80 cents a bushel (79-9 cents), or lower than for any preceding year in the above table— this comparing with an average o f I I ’026 per bushel for 1891-92, thus showing a decrease of over 22 cents per bushel on the whole outward movement of the year. The average per barrel of flour for the late year is |4-o46, which compares with $4‘ 959 for 1891-92. Unfortunately the averages for the clos ing month (June) are still lower, being for wheat less than 76 cents (75-9 cents), against 91*6 cents in the corresponding m onth of 1892. The low prices now prevailing ought certainly to keep the export movement free, and thus draw down sup plies, especially as it is evident that the present year’ s crop in this country will he a small one. E n couragement for the future is also to be derived from an examination of the records showing the destination o f the late year’ s heavy shipments. T i e statistics on this point, relate as yet only to the eleven months ending May 31. It appears that the United K ingdom took more wheat even than in the year preceding, and also more flour— the shipments of wheat for the eleven months being 67,153,909 bushels against 62,237,996 bushels, and o f flour 9,722,571 barrels against 8,838,008 barrels. Reducing flour to wheat and allowing for the exports in June, the U nited Kingdom must have taken from ns daring the. twelve months in the neighborhood of 120 million bushels. W ithout undertaking.to estimate what Great Britain’ s requirements the current year will he, or her ability to procure large supplies from other sources than the United States, it is sufficient to say that crop accounts from that country are very unfavorable at present. In the rest of Europe, also, the advices speak of much poorer crops than last year, though at the moment no such shortage is look ed .for as occurred in 1891. France, in the last-mentioned year, sustained a decided crop failure, and hence in the fiscal year 1892 (or rather in the first eleven months of the same) took from us 42,038,954 bushels of wheat ; in the cor responding eleven months of the late year she took only 6,752,423 bushels of our wheat. The wheat crop in that country, therefore, the present year, and France’s probable requirements to make up any defi ciency at home, will be watched with considerable in terest. Should our corn crop prove good, as expected, our exports of that cereal would also increase; in 1892-93 our corn exports were only 45,697,271 bushels, against 75,451,849 bushels in the twelve months o f 1891-92. In one recent year (namely, 1889-90) our corn exports fell hut little short of 102 million bushels, the exact total being 101,973,717 bushels. THE CHRONICLE.

It is almost needless to say that the best and highest dividends are found in the New England section; a great change lias been going on there in the relations of the different roads to one another, and some of the roads are not paying as good dividends as in earlier periods, but on the whole dividends have been well maintained and remain high. In the annexed table, the Old Colony dividend of 4 1-12 per cent for the six months of 1893 is made up of the regular quarterly dividend of I f per cent paid in March and the per cent paid June 30, after the lease to the New Haven.

Very little fault can he found with the character o f the exhibits of railroad gross earnings for June and the first half of the current calendar year. In view of the financial disturbances, the bank and mercantile fail ures and the generally gloomy tone which pervaded business circles, the smaller grain, provisions, cotton and live stock movements, the smaller ore traffic from the Lake Superior iron mines, and the other unfavorable factors which existed, the showing is a surprisingly good one. The earnings last year, as is known, were large; the totals this year show further improvement, the gain for the month being 12,258,129, or 5'25 per cent, and for the six months $12,145,022, or 4-53 per cent. As it cannot he claimed that the roads received better rates— with the possible exception of the lines in Texas, which since the State Railroad Commission was enjoined from enforcing its tariff have fared better in this respect— the increase clearly indicates a very large volume of business. Of course some roads in both the month and the six months fall behind their figures for last year (though hardly as many as might be expected under the circum stances), bat the losses in those instances have been overbalanced -by the more numerous and very heavy gains which other roads have been able to make. The ratio of gain for June is somewhat heavier than that for the six months, and this is due in a measure to th e absence in that month of some of the special unfavor able circumstances which existed earlier in the year, and also to the increase in passenger traffic resulting from the W orld’ s Fair, which in June has been a large item on cereain roads. The following gives the com par ative results for a series of years both for the month and the six months.

But on the other hand the flour receipts were smaller than a year ago, and there was s I bo a loss on the various items of the provisions move ment— pork, cut-meats and lard— and likewise a very heavy contraction in the deliveries of live hogs. These latter deliveries were only 2,790,794 head in 1893, against 4,282,828 head in 1892 and 4,519,099 head in 1891. For the month the receipts of hogs were 516,148 head in 1893 and 701,962 head in 1892, the pro visions receipts also showing a general falling off, so that the results for June are similar to those for the six months. As in that period, too, the aggregate grain receipts are larger than last year, though in this case the gain has not come from wheat. In considering the bearing of the grain movement on railroad earnings in different parts of the country, a fact which should not be overlooked is that tbe re ceipts at tbe Western markets for tbe half-year by no means reflect the course of tbe grain movement at the seaboard. Here there has been a heavy falling off. According to the New Y ork Produce Exchange tbe seaboard receipts from January 1 to July 1 in 1893 were only 86,599,043 bushels, against 141,307,007 bushels in 1892, being a decrease of over 54 million bushels, besides which the flour deliveries were not quite up to those of a year ago. Evidently, therefore, the grain movement over the trunk lines to tidewater was on a smaller scale than last year. In cotton the falling off for the half-year reached large proportions, as would be expected from the short yield of the staple last season. A t the Southern out ports the receipts aggregate only 1,230,422 hales for the six months of 1893, against 2,001,909 bales in the six months of 1892, a decrease of over three-quarters of a million bales, and every point with only one minor exception has shared in the decrease, as may be seen from the table further below. T o this loss must be added a farther loss of 214,165 bales on the overland movement, the gross shipments overland in l893 having been 515,650 bales against 729,815 bales in 1892.

Examination of the list of roads distinguished for heavy gains in earnings shows what sections and groups make the best exhibits. The very heaviest increase for the six months is furnished by the Atchison system, and amounts to nearly two million dollars— $1,967,682. The New Y ork Central comes next with an increase of about 1-J- million dollars, and the Lake Shore stands third with an increase of a million, while the Rock Island follows close behind with an increase of $912,958. The Illinois Central has $762,732 increase, the St. Paul $625,438, the Missouri Kansas & Texas $550,115, the Louisville & Nashville $531,084, the N orfolk & Western 1492,607, the St. Louis Southwestern $465,762, the Chesapeake & Ohio $369,554, the Interna tional & Great Northern $352,491, the Great Northern $347,590 and the Missouri Pacific $320,811, besides a great many others whose increase ranges from that amount down. The list is not only extensive, but many different groups and sections, it will be ob served, are represented in it— the trunk lines, South western roads, Northwestern, Southern, M iddle West ern. As for the roads which have sustained the heav iest losses, the Northern Pacific has a decrease of about a million dollars, and the Canadian Pacific a decrease of $431,364, both roads having suffered severely early in the year from the cold weather and snows. Aside from these two roads, the only others which show as much as a hundred thousand dollars decrease are the Cleveland Cincinnati Chicago & St. Louis with a loss of $233,364, the Grand Trunk of Canada system with a loss of $200,469, the Chicago Great Western with a loss of $194,445, and the East Tennessee with a loss of $165,099.

Som e THE CHRONICLE. bO applications for loam have been made at the Bank of England, and in the open market the rate of interest has been from about 2 per cent to per cent. The rate of discount in the open market recovered to ljg per cent. The market naturally is in a very sensitive state. The Bank of England is very strong, the reserve now somewhat exceeding 20 millions sterling. The supply of money in the open market is also very large, and will be increased next week by the payment of the interest on the national debt. But in spite of all that, there will be a rapid rise in rates, if there are withdrawals for New York, as many expect; or if the troubles on the Conti nent increase. All silver securities have fallen heavily during the week. Mexican Government 6 per cents have fallen about 18. Mexi can railway securities have likewise dropped very heavily, and so have Denver railway securities. Upon the Continental Bourses the anxieties in Berlin and Paris have led to a gen eral decline, and there has been a heavy fall in American railroad secuiities. Argentine securities have also shrunk much. Partly this is due to the general uneasiness, but largely it is the result of a sharp rise in the premium on gold, which is taken to indicate that political difficulties are in creasing. The best informed here fear that President Saenz Pena will have to resign. His natural successor is VicePresident Urituru, who is closely connected with General Koca. The fear is that General Roca will thereby gain so much influence over the councils of the Government that the Radical party will rise in arms against him. Even Argentine railway stocks have fallen sharply. On the other hand, Australian Government securities have been fairly steady, but there is a further decline in Australian bank shares. A t the fortnightly settlement on the Stock Exchange, which began on Tuesday morning, the banks lent freely at from to % % per cent, and within the House the carrying-over rates were very light. The speculative account open for the rise is exceedingly small, and therefore the Stock Exchange is in a better condition to face contingencies than it usually is. At the same time the fait in many securities has been exceedingly heavy. Fortunately for the purposts of the settlement, prices were made up at noon on Tutsday, when the fall had little more than begun. There has been good rain during the week, which has de cidedly Improved the crop prospects all over.Western Europe. The wheat market, therefore, continues very quiet. Tne de cision of the Indian Government has somewhat stimulated the Lancashire cotton trade, and there are some signs of a better state of things in the iron trade; but the coal trade is very depressed. The Employers Federation is asking for a reduction of wages of as much as 25 per cent. If they per sist, it is feared that there will be a general strike. Tne following return shows the position of the Bank of Erg land, the Bank rate of discount, the price o f consols, compared with the last three years: W fl J u n e 28. i C irculation ................................

THE CHRONICLE, 10 4 There was spent during the 10 months for real estate, Dew station buildings, bridges, cars and engines, grading for new track and sidings, a total of $170,656. This will be provided for out of the special fund of $723,804, and not become a charge against earnings. Under the agreement of reorganization this fund is ap plicable, subject to the discretion of the Board, for expendi tures on account of improvements to or extensions of the rail way property from time to time. The agreement of reorgani zation further provides for the issue of $20,000,000 4 per cent 50-year bonds, secured by a mortgage on the entire property, principal and interest guaranteed by the Pennsylvania Rail road Company. “ A sufficient amount of these bonds—say $17,100,000—-with 8 percent added, are to be retained to cover the liens, subject to which the reorganized company took the property. The balance of the bonds not required for the above-mentioned purposes shall remain in the treasury of the Company, to be issued and used from time to time, as may be deemed necessary by the Board, for the purposes of improve ment and betterment of the property.” The comparative results for two years are as follows: EARN IN G S, EXPENSES AND CH A RG ES F O R T E N MONTHS.

( F o r the y e a r en d in g J un e 30, 1893. ) The pamphlet report of this company says : “ The falling off in the income of the company was caused entirely by the diminution in the receipt of hogs, which receipts have now begun substantially to resume their volume. The legal con troversies have all been cleared up. The company has en deavored to derive a profit from the 700 acres of land at Tolleston, and has made arrangements with Swift, Armour & Morris to plot the land without any expense to the company. The property has been improved at Chicago at an expense to the Chicago Company of over $280,000. The improvements consist of a large horse exchange, a new office wing to the exchange building, new machine shops, new round-house, additions to the hotel, and other betterments. These improve ments must ensure a large increase in income, and are already earning substantial profits. The complaint of the character of the switching service at the yards has been so great that a new switching system of our own has been inaugurated by the purchase of thirty switching engines. We contemplate further improvements as fast as they can be paid for from surplus earnings afterpayment of all our obligations and divi dends. The property of the Stock Yards Company is in far better physical condition than it ever has been, and the busi ness seems to be more permanently established and more profitable.” The business for the year ending June 30 shows a slight falling off on account of the poor run of hogs during the winter months. The business for June, however, shows a decided increase over 1892. The directors voted themselves $2,500 each per year. The Treasurer’s report showed : INCOME ACCOUNT.

During the second quarter the disturbed financial condition of the country reduced the rt suits of the season to figures below our average. Our net profits for the la9t six months were $317,263. For the corresponding six months of 1892 they were $338,280. The immediate out look is unpromisiug. If the present monetary stringency should long continue, our autumn profits would be as meagre as those of the spring. Our business, however, seems on the whole to improve from year to year, and we believe that the future will in the long run show increasing gains.” The following figures taken from the Treasurer’s report show the financial condition of the corporation on June 30, 1893, and the proposed distribution of profits: ( F o r the h a lf-y ea r en d in g J u n e Net earnings, after paying all taxes, salaries and expenses of every kind..........................................................................................$317,263 Interest on first preferred stock, December 31, 1892, to Juue 30, 1893............................................................................................. 65,007 $252, 255 Interest on second preferred stock from Dec. 31, 1892, to •June 30, 1893................................................................................... 77.118 Remainder for com m on stock .........................................................$175,137 Two quarterly dividends, aggregating 4*2 per c e n t....... ........... 172,309 Surplus oil spring business for com m on sto ck ............................ $2,828 Surplus reserve for com m on stock carried fo rw a rd .................. 549,248 Present surplus reserve for com m on stock................................. $552,076 Earned for the com m on stock in the spring of 1893___4*57^ per cent bala n ce sh eet ju n e Assets.

Favorable opinions o f the crop previously entertained have becom e slightly m odified, but the influence o f that feature was neutralized by reports indicating a careful feeling at Manchester and by the very marked indiffer ence of demand on part o f dom estic spinners. T he strained m onetary conditions have also served as a check upon new risks. D uring Saturday’s dealings a very good tone was pre served w ith a sm all gain m ade in value in consequence o f reports o f dry weather at the South. J On M onday the m arket opened easier under unprom ising cable dispatches, but upon tbe prom ulgation o f tbe A gricultural B u r e m report o f crop conditions, show ing a m uch low er percent age than expected, there w as a quick m ovem en t to cover short engagements and a sharp rally in price, m aking a gain for the day of 13 points. The very next d ay, how ever, the m arket took a sharp dow nw ard turn o f 15 points, because o f the in different m anner in which our G overnm ent crop report was acted upon abroad, and the receipt o f orders to sell out en gagem ents bel l here on L ive rp w l account. D arin g W ed n es d ay and yesterday trading was very limited and confined principally to local operations with flue uations in v a lu - un important. To-day the o p -m u g was lower, but upon co n tra diction o f previous favorable w eath -r reports from Texas, local shorts were led m o covering and prices hardened again . Cot ton on the spot has been quiet. M iddling uplands close at 8 l-16c. The total sales for forward delivery for the week are 603.500 bales. For im m ediate delivery the total sales foot up this w. ek 3,556 bales, including 300 for export, 1,758 for consumption -------for speculation and 1,500 on contract.

D ear S i r s : I have burl the honor to receive your letter o f the 30th of March last, asking for inform ation as to the extent o f cotton culture in China, m ore particularly as to the quantity raised duringlast season. * * ” In reply I regret to state that it is im possible to furnish you with the inform ation sought, in the absence of any published statistics by China on cotton culture and the quantity produced. I may add, h ow ever, that cotton is grow n over m ost parts of China, though o f different degrees o f fineness and length o f staple The great cotton district is the basin o f the Yangtze River, where tw o varieties, white and yellow , grow side by Bide. There is a kind o f cotton culti vated in the north o f China which is m ostly used for w adding and n ot woven into cloth. In those regions the plant does n ot often grow above ten inches, and in the plains o f the Yangtze it does n ot attain the size of the American plant. It is believed that ih ea m ou n tof cotton grown in China must he enorm ous, and used almost entirely for native consumption, although the past year shows an export o f 508,800 peeuls, against 23,000 peculs from Central China a decade ago, the hulk o f it going to Japan to supply the numerous spinning mills in that country. The im port o f foreign cotton into China in 1892 am ounted to about 111,000 peculs. While grow ing, cotton is carefully tended, thinned, hoed and w eeded until the flowers begin to appear about August. As soon as the pods begin to ripen and hurst, the cultivator collects them before they fall and carries them to his house to clean the cotton o f seeds and husks. The weather is carefully watched, fo r a dry summer or a wet autumn is alike unpropitious, and as the pods are ripeniDg from August to October it is not uncomm on fo r the crop to be partially lost. The seeds are separated by a wheel turning two rollers, and the cotton sold generally by the farm ers to the m erchants in the towns. Somo they keep for w eaving at home. * * * I remain, dear Sir, yours respectfully, Charles D e n bt .

E a s t I n d i a C r o p P r o s p e c t s . —The following is from Messrs. Lyon & Co.’s cotton report dated Bombay, June 8: The weather was unsettled when our last report was written, and, as mentioned at the time, a cyclone was reuorted to have visited Calcutta and doue much hanu there, while rain was falling on the coast, and, as anticipated, Bombay was also visited with a storm, which, how ever, only lasted about two days, and we have since had flae but oppressive weather. The rain was heavy but very irregular, and in one part o f tae island over six inches were reg ister'd , while iu other parts, ac cording to the official reports, only from two to four inches fell. The weather on the coast during the last few days has been v ery unsettled, and the m msoon current appears to be gradually increasing, and we expect further heavy raiu is likely to fall before very long now. The official forecast o f the m onsoon has been issued by the m eteorlogical reporter to the Governm ent o f ludia. a id generally speaking he antic ipates a favorable rainf all over India. Briefly stated, he anticipates an early and strong monsoon on the Bombay ooa-it. an t considers the pressure and other conditions are favorable in Beug d, and to a less extent in Burmah, where the rainfall will be normal or in slight defect. In the Northwest Provinces and Per ja b the conditions are to some ex tent unfavorable. The conditions are favorable in the Central Prov inces, North Deccan, H yd erabai ami Central lu d ia; but slightly un favorable in Raj ou tan a ; while in Southern lodta and the Carnatic the conditions are difficult to forecast, as they depend chiefly upon the frequency o f breaks iu the rains. In N or'hern India rain appears to be on the whole probable; but Madras, the D eccan and Mysore will receive at least normal rain.

N ew Y ork , Friday, P. M „ July 14,1893. Business during the past week has shown a slight increase, but still continues much smaller in volume than usual for the time of year. The daily lists have shown a considerable number of buyers arrived in the city, but the dry goods dis trict has evidently not been their objective point, and both at first hands and with jobbers spot transactions have proved limited. Salesmen on the road are doing a little better, but, as one of them reports, the trade everywhere stems to be oppressed “ by an indefinite fear that something dreadful is about to happen in commercial and financial circles.” Locally there is a perceptible brightening of tone which, ifmaintained, may be expected to exercise a good influence in the sections oppressed by these vague fears. Reports of curtailment of production in all branches of the textile industries are rife, and although in miso iustances of an exaggerated character, have a real foundation Mrlls have closed here and there from the force of circum stances peculiar to themselves in a great measure, no con certed action being in progress. The fact that the possibility ot such action is gravely considered as a factor in the situation is testimony to the unusually dull condition of trade in all its branches. There is little alteration in the character of collec tions ; they are not satisfactory, still they are no wor e than a week ago. D o m estic W o o l e n s . —The department for men’s-we: woolens and worsteds is naturally under tbe same general ir Huence as the restof the market; stilt there has beenaslightl improved business doing, buyers showing more iuterest i new spring goods. The demand comes from more disran points the nearby and local wholesale clothing trade purchas mg little. Prices for the new season are setiling down on lower basis, declines varying from 3 to 10 per cent being u ported, covering all but one or two exceptionally well ordere lines. So far low and medium grade all-wool goods hav done the best, although cotton-warp cassimeres have not bee neglected. For woolen and woisted dress goods tbe demanr as represented by new or duplicate orders, is small, current dt liveries fully meeting buyers’ requirements. In this divisio also prices are irregular. .^ M E s m o Co.T™ N G ood s .— The exports of cotton good rrom this port for the week ending July 11 were 2 20 packages, valued at $128,0.70, their destination being t o ’th points specified in the table below: Total stock (pieoes)....................... 244,000 7,000 895,000 F o r e ig n D r y G o o d s . —Importers have had little to do dur ing the week beyond attending to deliveries of current im portations on orders taken some time ago. There is little or no business doing in the shape of new orders placed by visit ing buyers, with results from the work of salesmen on the road only relatively fair. For fine worsteds for men’s wear for next year some low prices are being quoted, while for the present season neither silks nor linens are quite so strong as they were a little while ago.
