armies.
" \Vhllo there has been a very fair nvcrago
trade during the week just closed , It has not
been overly brisk In some special lines , which
Is duo as much to the season of the year as to
nny other ono cause.
yho hardware trade has been heavy or , as
Berne dealers expressed It , "rushing. " In
this line tin pinto Is receiving the most atten
tion , nnd the market is excited. Kvcryono
appears to bo nnxlous to lay In a year's sup
ply before the new tnrllt bill goes Into effect.
y The season of the year Is arriving when the
Jobbers of dry goods look lor n lessening
rtuiuand , and thcv are beginning to feel
it now. Most merchants who
nroat any distance from the markets have
already laid iu their winter stock of Roods.
Tbo American Wool Reporter , in connection
with the trade In woolen goods , retnnrks that
during the closing week of August the ,
Jobbing trado-reachcd proportions that wore
almost phenomenal , und the opening weeks
of September witnessed a similar condltlou ,
Jobbers being taxed severely In their en
deavors to meet the demands of trade and
to hnndlo the large number of buyers who
wcro In the ninrket. It was not only un
usual , but probablv without precedent , and
Jobliers' hooks footed up totals such as sug
gested war clays , when values wens many
times greater than nt pro-sent. Trade con
tinued In heavy volume until the coming
of the September storms , when It began
"to drop ofl quickly , nnd on the coming In
of the Hebrew holidays , It got down to
moderate proportions. Taking the month.
as a whole- , jobbers cnn point with con-
Rldcrablo satisfaction to a irnind ntrgrcgato
which reaches figures that represent an ex
traordinary distribution of goods , a volume
of business that In ynrdago has probably
uovcr been exceeded. Jobbers nronowdolncr
n largo business , but it is oidvastnall fraction
f what was accomplished in the weeks re
ferred to. Trail o has taken n sort of breath
ing spell ; buyers hare placed their first or
ders , and are now awaiting the tlmo for com-
ingln on repeat orders , tollll in the holes inndo
by taking out goods which have gouo Into dual
consumption. Jobbers are putting stocks in
shape preparatory to n rcuownl of trade later
on andf arc In tho'primary markets seeking
bargains with which they can tempt buyers.
In nearly the whole range of cotton goods ,
the exceptions being few , tbo quantity of
Roods between manufacturers nnd llnal dis
tributors Is smaller thuii has been known In
years. That the consumption Is close to the
jjecls of the supply Is what gives strength
Cind tone to the market , and encouragement
to manufacturers nnd npcnts.
October has arrived without bringing nny
uecmcui.v new leaning 10 LIIU uauu m KUIJUU
procerles. The demand has not been as heavy
In nil cases ns dealers might wish to
see , but upon the -whole as heavy as they
could expect under the prevailing circum
stances. It can f-nfely bo said that there is a
Kreat general fooling of relief over the final
settlement of the tariff question , for however
operator ! ) may disagree over the provisions of
. the net nlTcctlnir various articles In the gro
cery line , the fact that danger of unexpected
legislation Is removed permits the laying of
plnns with some degree of certainty.
The lumber trade docs not appear to bo as
Srrlsk as It was a short tlmo ago , but prices
remain In Just about tbo same notch ou most
jgrqdes.
i In the way of country produce there has
not boon any very radical changes since n
week OKO. Butter nnd eggs have sold right
along at practically steady prices , the supply
and the domund keeping about equal. Poul
try weakened n little at the close of tha week ,
owlnfe to the liberal supply. The game sells
well , but is dlfllcult to handle with tUo
weather so mild.

TUB Jlr.E.l STOCKS This wasthoMaekestday
of all for bulls in Wall street. The market
opened weak with declines all through the
list. London was again : i eollcrand lioston
became a seller of Union Psiclflo. Mcitildatlon
wasBharp iinil forced. The street had rumors
of houses In troubln. but no announcements
wcra made. On the dccllno long stocks caino
out on stop orders that vroro never expected
to bo reached. The pressure was directed
mainly against such stocks ns liurllngton. St.
1'uul nnd Union 1'aolflc , Coal stocks , Indus
trial shares nnd Specialties nil suffered alike.
The declines the first hour wore sharp enough ,
but when tlio bank statement showed a dc-
croasoof ovur 82,500,000 in reserves the soiling
was redoubled. Hears jumped on every stock
which did not luxvo good support , and gave the
market a panicky appearance fora tlmo. The
half day session closed with the greatest loss
In values all round recorded in sonio time.

It i.s addressed to tbo legislature and states

The petitioners , therefore , hold that legal

ho proposes the erection of a iiiagniilfcnt

invest an average of JJ.uOO each insuchnn
enterprise nndvlthn capital of ittOO,0 , < X > thus
obtained , them is hardly a limit to the
wonders that the cxclinniro may not aocoin-
plWi. This would pivo HOO.ttW for a site ,
smother $100,000 , for n building nnil n. like
amount for Investment in so inc. enter
prise that would bo profitable to the
projectors. Some of tlio members favor
tbo scheme heartily nnd want to establish a
bank in connection with the exchange. This
plan they claim Is feasible mid , sura to bo
profitable. Aof \ \ tlio movers of tlio project
arc enthusiastic and vlll stop nt nothing
short of the fulfillment of their plans. Ouo
tbiiiR is certain , and that is that the success
ful prosecution of the plan for a prrinunciit

ing of the exchange. Jt would pivo them a
