It Is not easy to say What is the opInion of a majority of our own people-n mntt r to which the president must ICY respect. hieing largely dependent. upon strnegic considerations it is importaUt to ascertain from our military and naval oihlcers what arrargements of that nature call for ; 1)111. ) suchi advice r.eeds to be well delIberated and cannot be had in a tIny. We cannot be sure that foreign powers have no designs for getting.

Again , It Is impossible for oum' government to ascertain in a few days shiat are the capabilities of the I'huilp- Idne races for self-government , amid what can he done with Aguinnido and hIs lnsur- gent followers.

TIme worst re- ult that may be expected ( rota this eIny Is that we shall annex less territory In the east titan some rcoplo inve ( leitred , which might as easIly be an advantage as a misfortune - fortune , The next steps In the peace program must be an armistice , a general cessntl3n of fight- log anti the return of the enemy's troops to fiottin ; anti there seems to ho no reason for Supposing that Spain will interpose any dilatory action to oostpono these necessary details. Viewed from a business standpoint this new phase of nifairmi Is of Immense value' to time tall ProsPect. New elements will enter into time resources of our markets. So soon as time government. has devised a provIsIonal form of administering time late Spanish Islanils which commimnatuls public con- fitlenco there will be an Important ruslt of capital amid Poptilutioml into that territory and a valuable muhulitiomi to our maritime trade , Peace Immis comae Just at a time mo give its full effect of ettmnuitme to time autumn trmide , lIt'nceforth , time war will be a thing of the Past ; the present wIll be occupied with what oromises to prove time most re- nmmmrkabie period of industrial development over realized in our history.

NRW YORK , Aug. 14.-The New York Financier says this week : The statement of the associated banks of the city of New York for the week ending August 13 shows that the deposits end loans have reached a higher total than has been previously reported by these banks , Time chief features of the statement are the lass in cash and the continued expansion of loans which have marked the operationi of the banks for a considerable period. Do- posits. however , arc gaining at a much less rapid ratio and reseryca are decreasIng. A hardening condition of money ratea is to be expected with those conditions remaining iii force and Indeed this result baa already been observable in the last 'week. As corn- pareil with the prevIous week's totals loans have increased $9,911,400 and iIeposit $3.- 730,000. There have been losses in both legal tenders ( $3,091,800) ) anti iii specie holdIngs - Ings ( $2,763,600) ) , so that cash has decreased $5,815,400 , whIle the surplus reserve has tie- creased $6,781lflO. The operations of one bank account for over half the gain of about $10,000,000 are reportei In loans antI time growth in the deposits of two of the large banks Is nearly a million dollars more than time total gain in deposits of all time banks. Imidividual statemuents like timeso tend to confuse the average results , but In time main time statemncmmt reflects very well the changes imm time necotmnts of the remuuInhmmg bnmmks. Loans have expamulemi since July 2 by $3S- 600.000 , but depoita by only about $10,000- 000 , amid time surplus reserve is now only about half the amount reported omm that date , G2,000O00 , Carrying comparisons further back , a mtomewlmat different story Is told. Taking the statemnent of April 30 , which represents the lowest 01)1) of time period of apprehension over the uimanislm tilthlcimlties , we unit that deposits have increased $102,000,000 , but loans emily $19,000,000. A forecast of time mnommey nmarhct at thus time Is pectmiianiy dIm- cult , but time bnmmks have beemi able to comi- siderably Iimmprove timeir position as lommders by timclr operations of time last month or so. Time large tacit resources of the west make it ummusuelly problematical to estimate their thenmammds Oh time New York banks , but emi the other hammil there he every evidence of larger crops timnn were antIcIpated some time ago. flimsiness is becoimming more active nod time mlemmmnmid nmay be heavier than has been looked for. Time large debt still owing by Ituropo cannot be discarded from time rezkomming and it imas yet to be proved how badly Europe needs tills money. : ltiiii'Iiestei'I'extile Fabrics.

Receipts of sheep were aiim Very light , as will be noted above , time loss amnountimig to almost one-half , as cumapared with time week before. CA'I'TLE-Thiere were muot enough cattle hero to make mitch of a showing in tIme yards , ummd still .Omnnhma Imad moore cattle thnn sonic other markets. 'I'iio demand imp- Petired to be good for all kinds of cattle and tIme orfemings were all taken , every- tIming beimmg solti amid weighed up at mum early hour , 'rime ltrfees paid wore fully steady ammtl even strong In sonme cases. Cormmfed steers are sehilmig higher timan ' a week ago anil us night as they have been any time this year. Time demand iitts been good right ttlommg amid ehiers have been able to sectmre very satisfactory prices. Good cow stuff has also sold well , corn- fetIs sl'owhng little change In the mnatter of ValUes for the week. Good grassers have been in active ( lemumml anti values have been veIl mahmmialimed on that kimid also. Some' westermm grass 5IftYCd hcuiters sold today at $4.25. Medium to common cows have not ( lone SO well as the better grades and are miow all of 25c lower than a week ngo. ngo.The demand far feeders ha mlimown Im- provemneimt durimmg the week and yard deal- era have olt1 a good many cattle. During the early part of the week there was some falling off in values , but time market firmed up towam'tl time close. Good yearlings have brouht $4.50(14.75 this week , range feeders 3.tlO'a4.1O , amid sauth hills cattle , * 4,00(14.25. hlOGS-'rhme hog market openetl a good lOc lower this morhlmmg nud closed 10(1150 lower. As usual on such a day the trade wile rather slow , owing to time reluctance of sellers to make the concession , They had to c'omn to It. however , and em'er'timlng wait finally sold before the close. The hogs oid generally at $ : l.72tp'3.75 ( or good baths , though the top was considerably above that point. Early a few lQads changed hmtnds at 83.80 , and as high as $3.83. Yellow fever appears - pears to be at time bottom of time whole trouble. The breaking out of time disease at various volnts In time country ammd the fear that returning oldlers will spread the fever over the country , caused provislomma to break yesterday antI mnale packers an- tielpate still further declines ( or today. The fact of Its being a Saturtlity with liberal receipts was also a bear inhlumonce. 'Ftm- ( hity' decline leaves time market 2e lower than It was at the close of last week. SIIEEP-'rhero were only four loads of sheep in the yards today and one of them wtLs consigned direct to a pmtcker , Time de- rnammd was good 1mm spite of thin fgtct of its being a Saturday and time market was lOft iSe hIgher , It Is safe to say at the present time that muttomu grades of sheep are tt stromig lIe higher than a week ago.
