and its deductions, has been constantly cited to me as
proving first the data, and, secondly, the general application
which you make of the facts. As the article is in the mouths
of men of brains and of money, if the data given does not
fairly represent the trade, it has and is working an injury to
the business in which much money is invested, and very
many of your most intelligent readers are interested. I know
that you would not willingly do that, consequently I would
ask that I may be permitted to state a few facts which will
show you that no general conclusion can be drawn from the
returns published in the article.
The data given by you is confined to the dividends paid by
the companies named for a series of years, beginning with a
good figure and running to nil ; and, for the same years, the
prices received for beeves sold by the same companies, also
showing a gradual reduction.
In your conclusion you venture an explanation of this
reduction, which means that the vast amount of capital
invested has resulted in a sharp competition, before which
prices have receded. This means that the business is overdone, or that the supply exceeds the demand.
I insist your argument is not quite fair, because,

S. W. Fordyc* rep-irts from St. Louis
ready. All necessary ties are in track, about all ouuide spikes
driven, and all work neoewary to be done on the whole line
will be completed not later than Sept. lA.
Sufficient standard
cars and enKin>-8 will be parked at points on the line by Oct.
10 to warrant the change of gauge on that date. The crisis in
standard gnuving the road h&« been reached and paSHed, and
we are now out of all possible danger. Ou account of using
to many of our trains in construoiion. we have had to refuse
in tbe last four inonibs not lees than 5,000 cars of paying
freight, and in the last six months have hauled over 10,000
carloads of new steel, old iron, ties and timbers of the company, and have used an average of ten traina daily for the last
sixty days in moving earth out of cuu and widening banks.
We will not s|>end all the money estimated by ihe tngineers
as necessary for thia purpose, and tbeie has never been such a
demand for timber producU as now, and I estimate ttiat from
that source alone we will earn #1,000,000 the first year after

no importaoce to this news, having observed that the damage
they do is usually trifling. It may however happen that by
and by this calamity will extend, if its prevention depends
upoii the well known indolence and laziness of the fellahs.
Until now water has been more than suificient, and the
humidity which prevailed during late weeks on the Delta were
Tery advantageous to the plantations. It was estimated that
the time of seeding would be three to four weeks late but
now it is believed that it will be one or two weeks late, and
probably less, if the favorable weather continues. The present
lower stand of the Nile, however, will cause anxiety for the
next irrigations, lest, if it does not destroy expectations, it

water elevators have

repaired the fault of water, and the only question now is
•whether the same will be able to supply further needs unti^
the rising water makes its appearance in the canals.
Thus
far the condition of the plantations is entirely satisfactory,
and it is expected that we will have a very good crop of about
3,000,000 cantars, if too much water or worms, or foggy
weather, does not destroy our hopes.
In the Fayoum and Benisonif there seems to be more planted
than usual.
Those two countries will supply two or three
times more than in preceding years.
Wheat. Tills is the second season in which we have not
raised a surplus of wheat for export, and probably this year
there will not be enough for the domestic wants. Cotton is
now the preferred crop of the fellahs, which is the reason that
they neglect the cultivation of wheat.
Domestic speculators
have raised the prices of wheat, hoping to hasten the marketing
of .the crop, and notwithstanding that only a small quantity has made its appearance, the receipts are under the
average of last year.
suppose this article to be scarce.
Jieans The same facts are true of this article, the harvest
having been even poorer than wheat. Domestic wants being of
some importance, only 44,000 bags have arrived in our
market this year, against 148,000 bags during the same time
in 1885.
Corn As wheat and beans are not in sufficient quantity,
and are being sold by speculators at high prices, we cannot
expect sufficient quantities for the general home consumption.
So far these articles are in good demand. For the export of
corn several crops are raised here in the year, and hence its
production will be very important for the food of our
population.
Barley has likewise a scanty yield. There is no great import as yet, but that will be reerulated as soon as the supply
from the interior has been determined.
Some quantities
arrived from Cyprus, Syria and Odessa, and obtained good

cotton,

New

York. Friday, P. M., Sept. 3, 1896.
The past week has witnessed a very lib:'ral movement in
fall and winter goods from the hands of local j ibbers, and
reports from interior markets indicate that distributors at
most of the principal markets in the Western and South-

western States have been doing a very satisfactory business.
Southern jobbers report a fair trade for the time of year, and
distributors in the near-by States are seemingly making liberal
sales of fall goods, judging by the constant demand for
reaasortments by the latter. As regards personal selections
the demand at first bands was only moderate, because there
were comparatively few out-of-town wholesale buyers in the
market, but a very fair business was done by salesmen on the
road, and a good many re-orders were received by commission
houses and importers by mail and telegraph. The only
disturbing event of the week was the deplorable calamity at
Charleston, 8. C, which of course entirely stopped all business
with that unfortunate city. The week has presented few new
features of interest in the trade, but the general situation

continues very satisfactory. Stocks of manufactured goods
are exceptionally small as a rule, and the tone of the market
for both domestic and foreign fabrics is generally firm.
Domestic Cotton Goods. The exports of domestics from
this port for the week ending August 31 were 2,768 packages,
and the principal shipments were made as follows China,
1,444; U. S. of Colombia, 430; Great Britain, 320, and Hyti,
140.
Staple plain and colored cottons were only in moderate
demand at first hands, but a large distribution was made in
package and assorted lots by leading jobbers. Prices ruled
firm on ail makes of bleached and colored cottons, but some
large blocks of 3J^ yard brown sheetings, that have lately beea
held above their market values, were closed cut by means of
slight concessions. Print cloths were quiet in demand, but
stocks are so exceptionally small that last week's quotations
(3% for 64x64s, and 3c. for 56x608) were firmly maintained.
Stocks last Saturday and for the three previous years were
