CLEARING HOUSE RETURNS.
The present statement

important centres.
The large addition at Hartford (over
is due to very heavy transactions on the part of the
State Treasury; in fact, but for these operations, which reached
& total of $1,215,026, the clearings would have faUen below
those for the previous six days. The strike among the ironmill workers is in process of settlement, several mills having
signed the agreement within the past six days, and a speedy
adjustment of all differences is now anticipated.
Comparing with 1884 the clearings at the twenty-seven cities
record a loss of 17'3per cent. Our telegraphic returns for the
five days ending June 12, published in the Chronicle of June
13, exhibited the same percentage of decline; the confirmation of which by the full week's figures is only another evidence of the value of that statement.

idle to assert that trade at the present time is otherwise than
very dull. Were such not the case, money, both here and in
America, would not be at its present unusually low figure.
Moderate sums have of late been absorbed by the colonial
loans introduced, but the amount still unemployed is far in
excess of requirements, and that is a sure test of the state of
trade at the present time. The weather has becomg very
summer-like and favorable for the country, and agricultural
prospects are better than they were. In the present low level
of prices of food products any increase in the yield of cereals
does not count for much; still it is something, and will go
toward augmenting the power of the influences at work for the
extension of trade. The Anglo-Russian political incident is
just now almost entirely ignored, a peaceful settlement being
regarded as a certainty.
Money has slightly hardened, but the improvement is
almost inappreciable, and there is still an abundance lying idle
for which no adequate employment is offering. It will require
a very decided extension of trade to have much effect upon
present plethoric balances.
Day-to-day money remains at
about 1^ to -'^ per cent and short loans are quoted at 1 per

cent.

During the six months or more that the market hits
been Imnging on the changing aspects of the West Shore— Central
imbroglio, there has been no such strength or largo transactions in the bonds accompanied by a rise in Central stock.
Now, too, the movement excites more interest from the fact
that it sprung up on an insufferably dull market, and the ordinary causes assigned for it of "a speculative move" or "covering short sales," are altogether insufficient and unsatisfactory.
Rates for call loans during the week on stock and bond collaterals have ranged at
per cent, and to-day at l@li per
cent.
Prime commercial paper is quoted at 3@4 per cent.
The Bank of England weekly statement on Thursday showed
a gain in specie of £737,117, and the percentage of reserve to
liabilities was 52^, against 51
last week; the discount
rate remains at 2 per cent.
The Bank of France gained
9,725,000 francs in gold and 3,419,000 francs in silver.
The New York Clearing House banks, in their statement of

Railroad and Miscelianeons Stocks.— A decidedly improved tone may be reported in the Stock Exchange transactions for the past week, both in the volume of business and in
the course of prices.
Though there has at no time been any
great degree of activity in the dealings, yet the market has
been lifted from the extreme stagnation of the last few weeks,
and prices have been generally strong and improving with
only occasional reactions, caused by the inevitable realizations
.which are sure to take place under the circumstances. The
rise has not been accompanied, however, by any news of
importance as to improved conditions, yet there seems to exist a
more confident feeling among dealers, and bulls have been
able to put up prices on moderate transactions.
Among the favorable features has been the fact that the
shortage in wheat would not affect the earnings of the Northwestern roads, as they depend more largely on the springwheat crop, in which there is no apparent shortage, and on
corn, oats, &c., which are promising; the grangers have
consequently been quite strong, and with the Vandcrbilta
have led the advance. Rumors are circulated of a settlement
of trunk-line troubles, but as yet nothing definite has been
accomplished, except a resolution to form a money-pool on
Eastern passenger rates.
These rumors, together with the
election of Mr. Depew to the presidency of New York Central, have helped to strengthen the Vanderbilt stocks,
as also
the large advance in AVest Shore bonds, which is not easily
accounted for except on the theory that heavy purchasers have
been taking these bonds on inside information. Pacific Mail

United States Bonds.— Government bonds have been

quite
actively dealt in the past week, with prices about steady.
The closing prices at the N. Y. Board have bsen as foUows:

general strength of the market, and it has been suspected that
the pools supporting these stocks have been willing to sec lower
prices, or at least have done little to support their favorites.
Jersey Central has been one of the strongest in the market^
and on Thursday advanced on the announcement that Baltimore
it Ohio had obtiuned from the railroad committee of the
Philadelphia Council a favorable report fortheir line through that city.
To-day, Friday, the market was active and buoyant in the
morning, the Vanderbilt stocks and West Shore bonds leading,
and after slight reactions in the middle of the day, the last
prices were strong and at or near the best fiffurcs made

There has been in the week under review a .sharp decline in
cotton for future delievery at this market, the progress of
which has, however, been attended by frequent and so.ne what
irregular fluctuations. On Saturday last there was a shtrp advance, caused by accounts, which seemed to be well authenticated, that the crop in Texas had been injured by worms. But Liverpool and Manchester refused to respond and under a pressure to sell there was a decline from the close of Saturday to
the close of Wednesday of 13@ 17 ponts for this crop and 11^'
13 points for the next. The speculative interest was at timea
strong in the winter months, with August options also freely
dealt in but at the close on "Wednesday September was a loading month. Yesterday the Liverpool report was stronger and'
Manchester showed less depression, causing a demand to cover
contracts at an advance which was not fully sustained, and ii»
the latter dealings there was a sharp decline under a fresh selling movement. To-day the market was again lower, but wa»
feverishly active, recovered part of the early decline, but
again became weak and unsettled. Cotton on the spot hasbeen active for export with a good business for home consumption, but at declining values. Quotations were reduced
l-16c. on Monday and on Wednesday.
To-day there was a.
further decline of l-16c., with more doing for home consumption, middling uplands closing at 10 7-16c,
The total sales for forward delivery for the week are 396,000
bales.
For immediate delivery the total sales foot up this w^eek
13,280 bales, including 9,660 for export, 2,620 for consumption,.
