If this anticipation be a correct forecast from the reports afloat, it clears the surroundings of much that has been heretofore disturbing. Especially does it favor the idea of steadier rates all through the West and Southwest.

The New York Central reports an increase of over a million dollars for the month $1,004,109. ©f course in this case we must suppose that the passenger traffic to the Pan-American Exposition at Buffalo is in good part responsible for the magnitude of the improvement, but this ex- — planation hardly applies in the case of the other roads included in our totals, such companies as the Erie and the Lehigh Valley never furnishing early preliminary estimates. The truth is, the improvement extends to all classes and to all sections of the country. The Great Northern certainly can not be claimed to have benefited to any appreciable extent from the Exposition, yet this system reports an even larger increase for the month than the New York Central, the gain being of roads $1,140,081, or nearly 40 per cent.

One important incident of the week was the adoption by the French Ministry of extreme measures in order to compel Turkey to comply with the demands of France for the adjustment of certain claims of her citizens, settlements of which had been promised by the Porte. A French fleet was ordered to Turkey, and on Tuesday it arrived at the Island of Mitylene for the purpose of seizing the Customs, and on Thursday the principal ports of that island were occupied. The Porte thereupon complied with the French demands to settle all monetary claims and to give complete guaranties. It is announced that the Russian Minister of Finance has approved of the St. Petersburg municipality's proposed loan of 30,000,000 roubles, and it is whioh has added $798,174 to its last expected that the loan will be placed abroad.

But very good returns come also from the Southwest, where both the cotton crop and the corn crop the present season are smaller than in 1900.

This makes $35,245,544 15 since the beginning of the year. Payments at the New York Sub- Treasury for unmatured bonds bought under the order of October 31 have amounted to $4,579,902 64. The total of payments for such bonds since April 2 is cisco $47,249,059 25.

On Thursday loans were at 4 per cent and at 3| per cent, with the bulk of the business at 4 per cent. On Friday transactions were at 4 per cent and at 3f per cent, with the majority at 4 per cent. Banks and trust companies have loaned at 3£ per cent as the minimum. Very little business is done in time money and rates, are entirely unchanged at 4£ per cent on good nrxed Stock Exchange, and 5 per cent on industrial collateral, for all periods from sixty days to six months. The transactions in commercial paper are chiefly confined to out of town, mostly at the East, and very few sales are made to local institutions. The offerings are quite moderate and not much high-grade paper seems to be made. Rates are 4^@5 per cent for sixty to ninety day endorsed bills receivable, 4f @5 per cent for prime and 5@5£ per cent for good four to six months' single names.

The foreign exchange market was week, and the offerings of impression upon during the bankers' sight drafts seemed to make only a against shipments of gold slight firm rates, these c LTeriDgs being promptly absorbed in consequence of a more or less urgent demand for the repayment of maturing sterling loans and also for remittance. One noticeable feature of the week was the liberal supply of cotton billp, which appear to be coming forward in much greater volume than has hitherto been the case. One of the largest dealers in commercial bills reported the receipt this week of about £500,000 of cotton drafts, and presumably other large dealers have received equal amounts. Notwithstanding these large supplies, however, the inquiry for them is so urgent that they are quickly absorbed and rates are well maintained. The gold which went forward to Paris this week appears to have been covered with bills upon London which, as was noted last week, will be paid on presentation with the proceeds of Paris exchange on London. The shipment of $250,000 American gold coin to the British capital was reported as a special transaction. It is presumed, however, that the draft against this export will likewise be settled with Paris exchange. The Asaay Office paid $1,261,- 945 52 for domestic bullion. Gold received at the Custom House during the week $266,158. Nominal rates for exchange are 4 84^ for sixty-day and 4 87^@4 88 for sight. Rates for actual business opened on Monday unchanged for long and for cables, compared with those at the close of last week, at 4 83£ @4 84 for the former and 4 87f@4 87 J for the latter; sight sterling was offered at one-eighth of a cent lower, at 4 87^, the bid quotation remaining unaltered at 4 87.

It was the bringing of city conhad in New York City, and particularly in the Bor- tests down to a plain appeal for proper and honrightful or TV Manhattan. This is not, to be sure, the ough est of time that a political Mr. revolution has occurred in that community. Low's plurality of 4,300 in Manhattan and the Bronx, and even Mr. Jerome's remarkable run of 17,000, fall materially short of the plurality by which Mayor Strong was elected in 1894. That candidate's victory in old New York was won by a margin of 45,000 votes. But 1894 was a year when the opposition party was everywhere victorious, largely because of dissatis faction prevalent over the hard times, the blame for which, as usual, was laid by the general public on the dominant party's shoulders. Such votes are in their nature blind, or at all events so dependent on the circumstances of the hour that they cannot be permanently relied on. In 1897, when the same conditions no longer prevailed, the combined vote of Mr. Low and General Tracy on Manhattan Island fell short more than 10,000 of the Tammany opposition. This first administration, after the manner of a well- managed corporation, ago the civic chester.

This is a movement of the most vital consequence to proper city government, and its good effects were plainly visible this week. Nobody doubts that Tuesday's Fusion victory would have been improbable if not impossible had a Federal election coincided. No one imagines, on the other hand, that the vote of Tuesday necessarily foreshadows the allotment of majorities when Congress or the Presidency are next to be passed upon in New York City.

In the "North American Review" for November Mr. 0. P.

Germany alone forms an exception to the rule, her exports of this class of articles in the fiscal year 1901 having been $120,304,000 against $107,110,000 This exceptional condition in the exports of Germany is believed to be the previous in fiscal year. chiefly due, as already stated, to the depression is known to have existed in which that country for some months, and to the efforts of German manufacturers to unload by exportation the accumulated stocks for which their home market no longer offers an attractive field. There remains only the decrease in the copper exports to consider. And here Mr. Austin reaches the most instructive part of his analysis. He speaks guardedly, saying that the reduction <f seems" to be due to causes entirely different from those found in iron and steel or mineral oil; but the figures admit of no two conclusions. There has been no appreciable decrease in price, but a great decrease and the in quantity, have followed directly from The price averaged 16 '32 cents per latter appears to the former. in the twelve months of this year, against 16*73 pound cents in the corresponding twelve On months of last year. the other hand the aggregate value of the exports was only $41,260,in period whereas the corresponding of 1900 the 376, amount was $55,772,166. Adding manufactures of copper the total for this year is $43,267,021 against $57,852,960 last year, a falling off of 25 per cent. Looking now at the quantities shipped, it is found that only 252,769,328 pounds of copper went out in 1901 of ingots, bars, plates, etc., for 1901 against 333,340,725 pounds in 1900. But Mr. Austin does not confine his study to the United States movement alone. It has been quite generally supposed copper exports mand following through passing. that the contraction in these whole fell upon the United States, from which the imports in the eight months of 1901 were only 14,124, against 20,790 tons in the eight months of 1900. Mr. Austin France, from which it appears that for the fiscal year ending June 30 1901 France actually imported more copper than in the preceding twelve months, the figures being 577,134 metric quintals, against 561,331 Germany, of course, shows a large dequintals. crease, its imports of crude copper for the same years having been 713,514 metric quintals, against 786,114 In the imports of the Netherlands there quintals. was also a small decrease, the amount for 1901 (crude copper) being 48,214, against 52,629 tons in the preceding fiscal year. Mr. Austin carries his investigation a step further and goes into an examination of the figures of production. He notes that the statistics with reference to production in [other parts of the world seem to strengthen the conclusion that European countries are purchasing elsewhere at least a part of the supplies of copper which they formerly obtained from the United States. The output of copper in Australia, which, according to Merton & Co. of London, was 8,300 tons in 1889, was, according to Rothwell, 20,750 tons in 1899; Japan in 1889 15,000 tons, in 1899 27,000 tons; Mexico in 1889 3,780 tons and in 1899 19,000 tons, while the latest information indicates that the copper mines of Chili are rapidly augmenting their output. This increase in production in other parts of the world, coupled with the enlargement of the American production from 105,774 long tons in 1889 to 259,517 tons in 1899 and 270,600 tons in 1900, seems to have caused, Mr. Austin naively remarks, a greater reduction in price in other countries than in the United States. This is proven, he goes on to show, not only by the fact that the European countries have made a less reduction in their purchases from those countries than in their imports from the United States, but also by the very remarkable fact that foreign copper is now actually invading the markets of the United States, the greatest copper-producing country of the world. In the fiscal year 1901 the imports of manufactured copper into the United States amounted to about $10,000,000 in value, and the total, including ore and regulus, was also gives figures with reference to due to a shrinkage in deupon the business depression $20,581,716, as against $15,489,603 in 1900, $6,817,which the European countries are now 056 in 1899, $3,905,011 in 1898, $1,625,506 in 1897 In the light of the figures now pre- and $801,332 in 1895. Mr. Austin's conclusion, acwas sented by Mr. Austin concerning aggregate imports of copper into Europe, this view is no longer wholly "that the reduction in copper exports is to a decreased demand abroad, tenable. He shows that the reduction in the total largely to increased production and reduced imports of the principal European countries is by no prices in the other producing countries of the world." means in proportion to the reduction in our Of course in all this he makes no reference to the exports them ; in other words, that they policy maintained by the copper producers in this to have increased their purchases from other coun- country of keeping the price of copper pegged at a tries while they have been reducing their purchases high figure; but from his comprehensive analyses it from the United States.

While Lodz has to hold its own against the sharp competition in cotton-goods coming from the districts of Wladimir, Moscow and St. Petersburg, it is nearly without any competition worth speaking of as far as the manufacture of woolen goods is concerned; for the latter the city of Lodz has secured a good reputation in respect to low price, good appearance and comparative durability, although its wares cannot be placed in the same line with the goods turned out by the mills which make a specialty of high-grade qualities.

The clouds of smoke hovering over the city and the clouds of coal dust pervading the streets, in which meat and other eatables are sold on stands, crowded on the sidewalks, are certainly not improving the air in the working men's tenement houses, in which very often the most elementary conditions of hygiene and sanitation are lacking, and that explains the high rate of mortality among the population.

The pood (37 lbs. English) of foreign cotton, almost exclusively of American origin, advanced from 3 to 4 roubles in price during the past season, and the im ports were behind those for the preceding year. Nevertheless the American cotton still represents the greater part cf the raw material consumed by the mills of Russian Poland. It is natural enough that in a city of such rapid growth as Lodz, where capital and labor are competing for first place, speedy provision should be made to care for this large mass of laboring popula tion, which forms two-thirds of the total of the inof habitants.

The Government does everything to further this attempt; outside of the cotton-ginning mill on the Imperial farm at Bairam-Ali there are seven cottonginning plants in the Province of Transcaspia; besides that the Minister of Agriculture has ordered the establishment of experimental cotton plantations in the districts of Aschabad and Merw. Generally speaking, the crop is said to be a good one, especially in the district of Ferghana, which produces about one-half of all the cotton raised in Central Asia. In some other districts, mainly in that of Chodschentsk, the locusts have almost totally destroyed the cotton plants, so that the Government had to engage a large number of field laborers to eradicate grateful for your enlightened and generous criticisms of the Ideas underlying It, I am compelled to ask you to make some corrections in the statements attributed to uie by your stenographer when reporting the discussion by which the address was followed. la the latter part of my reply to the very intelligent comments of Mr. Edward J.

What I did say was this: "Even after the Franco-Prussian war. during the distressing period which the Bank of France had advanced to the Government one billion five hundred millions of francs on somewhat indefinite conditions as to the date of repayment, and had liberally met all the demands of industry, oommeroe and finanoe throughout the whole country, there remained in its hands oniy six hundred thousand dollars' worth of doubtful bills, none of which, however, were doubtful enough to induce the censors to charge them to profit and loss, and all of which, with the exception of a few aggregating in value Such a loss on a about five thousand dollars, were ultimately paid of turn over of ten thousand millions of dollars is absolutely inappreciable; and it is fully explained by the system of lending unlimited assistance in small sums even more than In large ones, and doing bo at a small rate of interest, and on the best security possible, namely on that of the life work and the possessions of every aotlve toUer in the land." who killed a3 much as 18 tons (English weight) of locusts a day.

The above-mentioned amount of cotton was consumed in 109 spinning and 118 weaving mills. The amount of yarn thus produced reached about 15,000,000 pood, or almost 248,000,000 of roubles in value; that of the cloth woven reached about 12,000,000 pood, or about 242,000,000 roubles. The number of mill hands occupied in the spinning mills is given with 170,000 persons and that of the weaving mills with 150,000 persons. The capital invested in these textile establishments, cotton spinning and weaving, not including the working capital, is estimated at about 270,000,000 rubles.

London, Saturday, October 26, 1901. The stagnation in business this week has been aggravated by the withdrawals on the part of the great French banks of some of the money they have been employing in London, by large gold shipments to Germany, and by a fresh "break" in the West Australian market. For some time past a general strike in the coal trade in France has been threatened for the second of November. A strike of the kind would affect a large number of workpeople, and would throw out of gear manufacturers all over the country; while at this season of the year it would of course inflict suffering upon the poor; but the mere prospect of a strike, however general, would not have had the consequences that in this case have followed were it not that it has been discovered and made known by the French Government that the miners, in one district at all events, have been buying old Gras rifles which have been discarded by the army; and the state of the French law is euch that the Government is unable to prevent these purchases. The fear of armed resistance by the miners created a scare, and although it is certain that they could not hold out against the army, yet it is at least possi ble that the disturbances might spread to other districts where Socialism is strong. In consequence of this the great French banks, which have been employing vast amounts of money in London for the past couple of years, thought it necessary to prepare in time lest there should be a run on the deposits, and in consequence they have withdrawn a portion of their balances from London. The has been heightened by the large gold shipments to Germany. The general interpretation put upon these shipments is that the banks everywhere throughout the Empire fear that a great failure is impending and are taking precautions accordingly. This is contradicted by those in the best position to know, both in London and Berlin; but the fear undoubtedly exists here in London and widely in Germany. It is known that it does not pay as a mere exchange transaction to take the gold, even though it is certain that the Imperial Bank of Germany is giving the usual facilities for shipping it. Lastly, there is an unexpected and considerable "break" in the West Australian mining market. The manager of one of the principal mines has for a year past been giving most favorable reports, both of development and of the outturn. Suddenly, however, the mining engineer has written to the directors in London that the development effected does not justify the large output. Presumably the mining engineer was acquainted with the reports which the manager has been sending every fortnight for 12 months past, and it is asked in consequence how it is that he has kept silent so long or that he has now spoken out. The result is a fear that a fresh scandal will be brought to light, and there has been a general selling of West Australian mining shares of effect of this all kinds. tion in Germany pecuniary assistance to several great firms to enable them to keep their work-people employed. Daring the week ended Wednesday night gold amounting to £1,228,000 was withdrawn from the Bank of England, and every day since withdrawals have continued. Yet the effect upon the market has been surprisingly small. The Bank of England has not taken strong measures to raise rates, and money continues fairly abundant. There has been some rise, but nevertheless rates are lower than either in Paris or Berlin. Probably the directors of the Bank of England will now begin to borrow in the open market for the purpose of raising rates; and very soon it is expected that the Bank minimum will be officially raised. A rise will become imperative if the great French banks continue withdrawing the balances they have been employing here. Whether they will do so depends of course upon the action of the miners. The Government evidently thinks that there is considerable the press that military arrangements have been completed for bringing to bear upon the miners, if necessary, an overwhelming military force; and the Prime Minister on the opening day of the session announced that measures also had been taken for insuring that, if a general strike did take place, coal would be safely landed at all the ports. The fact, however, that the Government is acting so firmly may induce the miners to put off the strike. If so, confidence will soon return, and the amount of money employed here by the French banks will again be increased. On the other hand, if apprehension continues, money will be withdrawn and then the Bank of England will have to act. Respecting the gold shipments to Germany, although they are so very large, little anxiety is felt, partly because it is known that the withdrawals do not pay, and therefore it is anticipated that they will not continue for a long time; but that It largely depends upon is quite uncertain at present. whether anything serious is impending. In any event, it looks most probable just now that an advance in rates here must very soon take place. Meantime the India Council continues to sell its drafts fairly well. It offered for tender on Wednesday 50 lacs and the applications exceeded 13 crores. The whole amount offered for tender was disposed of at prices ranging from Is. 3 31-32d. to Is. 4 1 32d. per rupee.

Exchange of Common Stack. In the same Act the Legislature also granted authority to buy and cancel the common stock of the Rutland Company. The directors accordingly offered the common stockholders one share of preferred stock for ten of common. Under this offer, $2,282,000 common stock has been surrendered and canceled and $228,200 of preferred stock has been issued in exchange. There is now outstanding $211,400 of common stock, a large part of which, if in existence at all, is in the hands of holders unknown to the officers of the company. Changes in Balance Sheet. By reason of these consolidations, the mileage of the road has been increased from 136 miles to 360 miles, and its general balance sheet has been en tirely changed, the obligations of the companies which have been consolidated with the Rutland Railroad being assumed by that company, and the properties, equipment and assets also being taken over and all consolidated in one general balance sheet. The issuing of preferred stock for the Rutland common stock, and Ogdensburg & Lake Champlain common stock at the ratio of one share for ten, has operated to reduce the total capitalization of the properties by $5,079,200, and a corresponding reduction has been made in the consolidated construction account. The account of equipment, which has appeared on the balance sheets of the Rutland RR. Co. in former years, was made when the property was leased to the Central Vermont Company, to include, with the rolling stock,, rails, ties, bridges, buildings, and like property, which was charged against the Central Vermont Company. In consolidating the accounts, a careful inventory and appraisal of the present rolling stock has been made, and the rolling equipment account, as shown on the present balance sheet, gives the figures of this appraisal. The difference between the equipment account, as it appearea on the ledger, §2,749,617, and the account of rolling equipment, as appraised, $1,584,866, has been charged to profit and loss account. Rutland Transit Co.— During the season of 1900 the gross earnings of the Rutland Transit Co. were $377,534, contrasting with $352,727 in 1899, and the operating expenses for the same period were $329,916 (including $30,0 15 for extraordinary repairs to the boats); net earnings, $47,619 [against §55,812 in 1899]. The stock and bonds of this company are the property of the Rutland RR. Co.

This was done on Oct. 12, 1900, and on Dec. 15 we were able to put our hrst through traffic over it, although the ballasting was not completed until BpriDg. The unfinished condition of the road necessitate small trains, and made the operation expensive. That and the increase in the cost of coal and other supplies has largely increased the cost of conducting transportation during the past year. The traffic over the Rutland- Canadian shows a satisfactory increase, and it is believed the result will warrant the expenditure which has been made to build it. Improvements— New Equipments.— During the year, 35J^ miles of 60-pcund rails have been replaced by 80-pound steel rails (4,485 tons), costing $96,517, and three wooden bridges by steel structures costing $30,006. The development of the company's business required the purchase of additional freight cars, and 600 box cars of 60,000 pounds capacity and 250 double hopper coal cars of 80,000 pounds capacity have been added to the equipment. The total amount of the purchase was $521,422, in settlement of which the company paid cash, $76,422, and issued bonds, upon the equipment purchased, for the balance, $445,000. These bonds draw ±% per cent interest, and mature at the rate of $33,000 per year. Practically all of our equipment is now supplied with automatic couplers, and 50 per cent of the rolling stock has been equipped with air brakes. Consolidation.— Acting upon the authority granted the Rutland Railroad Company by the Legislature of Vermont at the session of 1900, the following subsidiary roads were consolidated with the Rutland; their capital stocks, being the amounts named below, were canceled, and preferred stock of the Rutland RR. to the total indicated was issued in lieu thereof, viz.

The total charges to capital aocount were $121,492, representiag the cost of loo coal cars and one steam shovel. No charges were made to oapltal account for expenditure upon roadbed or structures. The reserve accounts for replacement and for maintenance appearing in the balauoe sheet are represented by cash on hand, reserved and held sepa ately from current cash, to be used, when required, for th* purposes stated. Equipment obligations were inourred during the year (eovenng in part the eight locomotives oontraoied for in the previous year) in the sum of $104, 9y6, and equipment obligations for $107,u52 were paid and ohareed to reserve account for the replacement of roiling stook.

Contracts have been made during the year for 4 freight locomotives, 100 double- hopper coal cars and loo plain box earn, which wl'l more than make good the deflolency stated. The gradual improvements in the physical condition of the roadway and equipment oontinue to show increased operating efficiency, as will bo seen from the following statistics: The average number of oars in each freight train inoreased from 2b- 17 in 1900 to 2*12 in 1901, or 11'27 per oent. The average number of tons of freight io eaoh train, (inoluding company's material) inoreased from 334-03 in 1900 to 37092 in 1901. or 11 04 per cent. The average freight reoeipts per freight train mile, which in 1900 were $2 22, in 1901 were $2 54, an increase of 14-53 per cent. The industrial growth along the line continues. During the year 21 new industries began operation, with a capital investment aggregating $i43,5ou. while additions to and extensions of old industries increased the oapltal Investment by $3,642,000, making the total new capital invested during the year $4, 85 500.

Western Maryland RR.— Fepnrt of City Directors.— Resume of Amount Due Cily.—Tht Baltimore city directors.viz.: Robert O. Davidson, W. T. Dixon, T. It. Clendlricn, Mantles Cohen, John A. Tompkins, George R. Galther, F. A. Fumt, II. Irvine Keyser, on Oct. 31 sent to Mayor Hayes their report regarding the road, and in connection therewith furnished a ptatement of the indebtedness of the road to the city. The report recommends that the city's advances for the payment of interest and purchase of coupons, amounting to $3,920,676, be funded into a preferred stock of the railroad company, and that the interest on the advances, amounting to $3,53i,009 additional, be funded into the common stock of the company. The alternative proposition of the directors is to sell the road at public auction under the mortgage liens held by the city. The report says in part In view of the fact that the railroad company is now paying the current Interest on the several naort^aKe liens for which the city has Issued its storks and claims its ability to continue such payments in the future in view, further, of tlin close relations which have always existed between the city and the railroad company and the great Interest taken by the citizens of Baltimore in the welfare of the Western Maryland RR., your directors realize that some adjustment of the &«• cumulated indebtedness for which the city has not issued its stock may well be made at this time, more especially ae the aggn-ga T e amount of the arrearage is more than the company can be expected to meet and liquidate within any reasonable i>enod of time would recommend, therefore, that this indebtedness as Btated be funded as to the sums advanoed Into a preferred etock of the railroad company, and that the Interest on the advances made from time to time as above stated be funded into the common stock of the company. The alternative proposition to this would seem to be a public sale of the property under the mortgage liens held by the city. This might be deemed an ungracious act on the part of the city of Baltimore. It will doubtless be necessary, should this proposition to fund the arrearage meet the approval of the Mayor and City Counoil, that ; We proper authority be obtained from the next Legislature authorizing this proposed funding and issue of stock. V e believe that thus the affairs of the city in connection with the road will be placed upon a practical, business like basis, and if thlsplan be accepted, the relations between the city and the railroad company will bee me of an entirely satisfactory nature, and all agitation In regard to the sale of the property may be indefinitely deferred.

Early Killing frosts in the week prices made a moderate advance. were reported on Monday in the western section of the cotton belt, with colder weather predicted for the Atlantic States. The frost reports brought shorts into the market as moderately free buyers to cover tbeir contracts, and there also was some new buying for investment account. Over the holiday on Tuesday, however, there developed a weaker undertone. European and Southern markets appeared to be adversely influenced by a large crop estimate put out by a widely-known crop estimator, but who in the past two seasons has been radically wrong in his prognostications as to the yield of the crop. The market again turned stronger on Thursday. Liverpool advices came better than was generally expected, and it was reported that there was large speculative buying for Continental account in that market. The movement of the crop is receiving close attention from the trade. Receipts for the week have been fairly heavy. Advices from the South, however, indicate that the movement will be smaller, and this is having a favorable influence upon the situation. To-day the market opened slightly higher on stronger advices from Liverpool, reacted under more favorable crop news from Texas, but again turned steadier during the late trading, on buying by local shorts to cover contracts. The close was very steady at a net advance for the day of 1@6 points. Cotton on the spot has been quiet, closing at 7 13-IGj. for middling uplands. The rates on and off middling, as established Nov. 21, 1900, by the Revision Committee, at whioh grades other than middling may be delivered on oontract, are as follows, ..o. lie on Strlot Good Mid.

At the higher volume of business has been transacted locally, as buyers generally have been slow to follow the rise. In the meantime, however, dealers' stocks are being gradually depleted, and the undertone of the market has held firm. Minneapolis advices have reported a large business transacted in that market. Rye flour ha9 been in costs ruling only a limited better demand and firm. Buckwheat jobbing sale at steady prices. ate demand and flour has had a fair Corn meal has been in moder- firmer. Speculation in wheat for future delivery has been on a fairly extensive scale and at advancing prices. European advices have been of a much more encouraging nature, the markets abroad showing a firm undertone, with values working higher. There has been a fair amount of speculative buying in the local and Western markets for European account, but thus far the actual export business transacted in the spot market has been reported as only limited. Another favorable factor has been the strength shown by the Northwestern markets, due, it is repDrted, to an active cash demand and a comparatively light movemant of the crop. Much colder weather and enow has teen reported in the Northwestern States, and this, it was generally believed, will have a tendency to reduce the crop movement. Advices re ceived from interior points say that where farmers have liberal supplies of wheat on hand, they are using it to feed to their stock instead of carting it to market and bringing back feeding stuff?, which are selling at high prices. Reports from the winter-wheat belt state that the recent rains were beneficial, but that more moisture is needed. To-day prices advanced on rumors of large export sales at interior points, but the improvement was rot maintained. The spot markets here and at outports were more active, fair sales being made to exporters.

Kansas City has been a particularly strong market during the week, being considerably above the Chicago market, and it is reported that Peoria distillers have been buyers of corn in the Chicago market.

Home buyers have adhered to a hand-to-mouth policy in connection with brown sheetings and drills, while exporters have generally contented themselves with making bids unpractically low. Prices are without quotable change, but at the close there is slight irregularity in some quarters. The market is firm for cotton duck and barely steady for osnaburgs. In bleached cottons the conditions are unchanged from a week atjo. Only light orders are coming forward and prices are steady. Wide sheetings are in limited supply and firm. Danims continue scarce in all grades, with a moderate amount of business at firm prices. In other coarse, colored cottons there is a firm market also. Cotton flannels and blankets are very quiet. The print cloth market has been quiet and price of regulars has declined %c. wide odds are l-16c. lower. In prints all lines of staples are firm, with a good demand for forward deliveries. Fancy prints are sold up in dark work and new spring lines are not yet shown. Fine printed and wovenpatterned wash fabrics are very firm, with a heavy business done on spring account. The market for staple and dress style ginghams is also firm, with a quist business doing. Foreign Dry Goods.— There has been no new feature in the market for foreign dress goods, a quiet business being done at generally steady prices. Silks are firm but quiet.

An upward turn in cotton on Saturday and Monday last caused a slightly firmer tone in some quarters where there had been a disposition to meet buyers with small concessions, but this has since disappeared with renewed weakness in the staple. The holiday on Tuesday and the great interest taken in the elections told upon the volume of business put through and total results have been quite moderate. All danger of a strike at Fall River has been removed this week by Mr. Borden's announcement that on the 18th inst. he would reduce the wages in his mills 10 per cent, putting them back to where they were before the first of the two recent advances of 5 per cent each were given. The trade has been greatly surprised by this action, and under it the market for print cloths at Fall River has shown a decidedly weaker tone than of late. Repoits from various jobbing centres show an average amount of business in progress in both seasonable goods and specialties for spring. Woolen Goods.—There has been a slight increase in the demand for woolen and worsted trouserings and suitings this week in both heavy-weights for quick consumption and in light-weights for spring. There has not, however, been any movement of moment in connection with the supplementary business in spring lines, and this is again a disappointing feature of the situation. 301 89 44 853 516 3,951 1,362 85,306 5,492 37,699 8,856 20.004 1,739 5,657 46,040 9,081 West Indies 64 ©66% 64%©66% 67 ©68% 66%368% THE DRY GOODS TRADE.

Dlst and the most important sale of the just past was that of New York City, which municipality on October 29 disposed of four issues of largest 3$ per cent 40-year bonds, aggregating $3,600,000, to the Central Realty Bond & Trust Co. and Lewisohn Bros, of New York City at 107*21 an interest basis — of about 3*178 per cent. note the varying rates at which the bonds of this city have been placed during the current year. In January a very low rate was obtained namely, 2*937 per cent a figure that has been but rarely approached. In March the rate demanded increased to 308^ per cent, while in May 3292 per cent was the best terms which the city could obtain. It is interesting to — — In June the figures had fallen somewhat, to 3*22 per cent, only to take a jump to 3*368 percent in September. The recent sale, therefore, is 0*19 per cent better than that of the preceding sale and the best that has occurred since March. Another large issue of bonds was that put out by the city of Allegheny on October 7, when $1,098,000 3£ per cents were sold on a 3*288 per cent basis to N. W. Harris & Co., bankers, of New York and Chicago. The number of municipalities emitting bonds and the number of separate issues made during October 1901 were 144 and 172, respectively. This contrasts with 134 and 159 for September 1901 and with 121 and 148 for October 1900. In the following table we give the prices which were paid for October loans to the amount of $8,582,501, issued by 105 municipalities. The aggregate of sales which no price has been reported is $1/196,696, and the total bond sales for the month $9,779,197. In the case of each loan reference is made to the page of the Chronicle where a full account of sale is given. for October Bond Sales. Paat Location. Rate. 922.. Adrian, Mich. (2 Issu's) 3 *** 864..
