tullure of Hhnffer and his follower aio
foresonc conclusions,
The outlook for the sto,ck market Is some
what porplextnK. It Is certainly not so
favorable as a year riKO. We are up iiKulnat
a crop situation which, If not illseoiiraHK,
i certainly Icsh eiicriurtiKlnt; than last jca .
We are ns.iureil of Rood wheat and !iuy
rrops. The former Is especially Important,
for, owlns to the shortiiR-e In Kurope. we
are sure of n booiI export demand at satis
factory prices. This menus a birth decree
of prosperity for the wheat urowlni; i-chIoh.
good hauls for the railroads and a tuvor
able effect upon our forelun trade balanej.
This Ii thu best that can be said of tlu
crop sltuatlor 1'rolotiKed drouth In some
sections and too much rain In others luivo
henn anything? but benellclal to crops In
Kenernl. Tin- Injury to corn Is already
tamlllar. Uite corn has shown great Im
provement Murine the last three weeks and
rrop estimates are being steadily rals -d,
but It Is altogether too early yet to pliioa
any tlxed reliance on estimates of yield,
late corn being especially liable to frost
damage.
Trust nil Important If,"
.Should corn escape frost and the weather
continue favorable the remainder of Ml1?
season, wo might easily harvest a crop of
l.liiO.lW.OW) to l,D0O,W),O(iO bushels, but Ilia
frost possibility makes a very Important
"If." Fortunately, the partial loss of the
corn crop will prove In no si-nse a calamity,
but In spite of favorable offsets It will en
force economy among large numbers of
farmers and of ticccs.-lty be a check upon
blislnf ss activity. Its effects will bo le t
among merchants, by the railroads and In
the provision markets during the fall and
winter months, rather than now. Another
Important crop Is feeling adverse weather
conditions, and that Is cotton. Too much
rain In some sections and too little In other,
Tixas, which raises botween one-qtmre.
and one-third of the cotton crop, Ih suffer
ing from a severe drouth and will certain y
produce considerably lesj. cotton than last
year The loss In this state (Texas) will
lie partially offset by Inereased yield In
other states, but the cotton trade Is fully
reconciled to n smaller crop than hist yeir
by several hundred thousand bales. The
diminution of two such Important crops as
corn and cotton cannot bo conslderod an
element of prosperity even If higher prices
largely compensate therefor. The countrv
be likely to be prosperous In spots and
backward elsewhere,
Kxports to Kuropr.
A good deal of talk Is heard about our
prospective Inrgc exports to Kurope. Til's
Is likely to be true an regards foodstuffs,
which Kurope will be compelled to buy
from us, hut as regards our manufactured
products, which lutve become such an Im
portant factor In our export trade. It should
l remembered that both lCngland nud
Clermany have been going through a period
of' depression and lower prices, lessening
their purchasing poweis and placing them
In a better position for underselling us In
foreign markets. The lower level of the
foreign markets Is nlso likely to stimulate
the shipments of merchandise to thin coun
try, bonce the natural tend"ncy of our
foreign trade would be toward smaller ex
ports and larger Imports, or a gradual
reduction of the abnormal trade balance
which has been such u feature of our pros
perity during tho Inst three or four years.
Much, however, depends upon thu foreign
demand for grain and cotton.
General business continues In good condi
tion and merchants generally anticipate a
season equalling last year In volume. It
Is noticeable, however, that very few expet
to exceed last year nnd thero Is a whole
some feeling of conservatism In mercantile
circles, Hallroad prosperity seems to go on
without Interruption. Oross earnings show
steady gains In spite of the large lncroi'es
of the thre and four previous years, Th s
! chlclly tho result of batter rates and
shows the value of hnrmony to owners of
railroad securities. Ah a matter of fact
many of the roads are carrying n smaller
tonnage than last year, but they are earn
ing a fair profit as n result of reasonable
nnd Rtablo rates,
KffiM't of the Strike.
We might have had a September boom
had It not been for the a lversc effect ft
the strike and the corn damage. These de
stroyed all bullish outside tentlmeiit and
left tho market entirely dependent up u
Inside Hujipirt, which It has had In un
mistakable fashion. There Is some talk
that the big men Intend to put the market
higher. With stocks ho closely held In their
control It would be foolish to deny their
ability to do so, Hut natural conditions are
hardly In fu.-or of higher prlecH at th!
time. In addition to the reasons cited
above, tho money market Is likely to be a
serious obstacle to any bull campaign. Tho
reserve went down laHt Saturday to JlS.Ort).
000, compared with $23.(kiO,i a year hm,
and Is likely to he entirely exhausted bef. ro
the return movement begins In November
Western banks have considerable deposits
In the reserve centers, which they will soon
draw upon for crop purposes.
This week's statement will probably show
a further decline In reserves, llankts
seem perfectly confident of their ability to
take care of ordinary crop and business le
qulrements,, but any nctlvo speculation In
stocks would rapidly produce a str.ngenev
that would automatically Impede a b II
market. All discussion of gold Imports and
bond purchases Just now Is problematical.
These resources might be available nud
they might not. High prices would use up
tho available supply of funds mori rapld'y
than low price!). Taking nil the facts In'o
consideration, natural conditions are not
Just now In favor of higher prices Forced
manipulation may raise the market to a
higher level, but undir such conditions
operations should be conducted with un
usual care and wo should udvlso selling on

Tho Financier says: The cash In tho
banks last week was largely affected ny
tho ordinary sub.treatury operations as
woll an by tho Interior movement of money.
The extraordinary operations of tho ittli -treasury
consisted of thu payments lor
$1,502,200 new gold on assay olllce checks,
representing domestic bullion and deposits
nt Pacific coaBt points, and the disburse
ment of $.HS,6O0 for bonds nnd of $913,0 0
for pensions. Theso Items made n total of
$2,703,700. Tho sub-treasury received from
tho banks J1,S50,(HJ for transfer to the In
terior, leaving $913,700 net gain to the
banks on extruordlnnry operations. He
celpts by the sub-treasury fof customs. In
ternal revenue and other Items were $1S..
921.000, while the disbursements to the
banks for ordlnury purposes wero $11,305.20,',
lo'ivlng an exocos of receipts over pay
ments by tho sub-treasury of JI,82J,7iO.
Tho banks shipped to th.i Interior, chiefly
to Chicago, $5,99s,SU), exclusive of transfers,
which are Included In thu above statement,
nul tho banks received from the Interior
Pk,395.300, leaving ns the net loss to tho
tunkr. on this direct movement, $l,60l.5r0
Adding the net loss to tho banks of 13,710.
100 on sub-treasury operations, both ordi
nary nnd extraordinary, makei the total
loss nf cash by the banks for the wrek
of $5,311,000. The bank returns showed a
loss of $6,235,10il In cash. The loans wero
expanded by $7,349,200, There was a dc
crease of only $27,700 In deposits, whereas
this should have benn shown an Increaso
ot $1,111,100. The circulation gained $1,0)9,-
fO, and the loss In surplus reserve wai
11.229,175, leaving this Item at 11,919.5.6.
There was good evidence early last we k
that some of the l,of.0 ensh which hud
been sent to Philadelphia late In th- pre
vious week had been returned to this city
How much of this money came back, how
ever, It Is dlttlcult to estimate, but to the
extent that Jt was returned, the condi
tion of banks ns regards cash was Im
proved. It will be observed that the drain
of money into the treasury from the hanks
for customs nnd Internal tevenue wns nidta
large last week, nnd this nvvemciit may
continue Important In the near future. In
Mich a case a concurrent movement to the
Interior for crop purpose would very oo.i
seriously reduce the surplus re.icrvts. It
U true that the assistant treasurer hm
been given authority to buy bonds to lib
eral amounts, should they be offered, but
Judging from the comparatively small ten
ders of bond!, which were made last week
relief to the market through bond pur
chases, should relief bo needed, will lie
iiulte unaffcctlve. Any material advnn-:o
In rates for money as tho results would In
almost certain to cause such a fall In
foreign exchange rates an to bring gold
from Kurope. This would afford far more
effective relief to the market than any
other available method.

CATTLK As is generally the enso on
Saturday thero were not enough cattle
offered to mako a test of tho market. The
supply fur tho week hus nut been at all
heavy, a decrease noted as compared with
the last two w'eekB and a marked falling
oft as compared with the corresponding
week of last year. The demand has been
In good shape all tho week and as .1 re
suit price's on anything at nil desirable In
the way of killers have advanced quite
sharply.
A fair proportion of the receipts this
week wero made up of cornfed steers, for
which ,the demand wns exceptionally good.
There were. In fact, not enough cattle
to fill packers' orders and as a result thay
paid higher prices In order to get them.
For the week the advance amounts to
fully 25c. Tho commoner kinds of course
hnvo not Improved as much In nil cases,
though thu shortage In the better grades
has caused even the common kinds to sell
readily at stronger prices.
Cows and heifers have also advanced
fully 25c and In .some cases the good to
cholco kinds hnvo sold ut a greater
premium than that, dinners have not
advanced unite that much, but still they
have also steadily Improved during tho 1
week and sellers nave nan little dltllculty
in disposing of their holdings at very
satisfactory prices.
Good bulls hnvo commanded strong prices,
but the canning bulls wero Blow salo all
the week and no more than steady with
the closo of last week and Btugs of de
sirable grades aro a little higher.
Tho stocker and feeder market has not
been In very good shape this week. Tho
first of thu week speculators took hold In
good shape In anticipation of a good de
mand from the country, but the buyers
tailed tn arrive In sulllclcnt numbers to tnko
what was offered and as a result prices
hnvo eased off '1 he best heavyweight feed
ers nru not so much lower, but anything on
tho ;ommonlsh order or stockers have taken
a drop of fully 'i5e. Tho .latter part of tho
week It was very dllllcult to sell ligtit stock
ers nt uny price, us yard traders wero
carrying n good many cattlo from day to
day owing to thu light demand from tho
country.
What has been mi id of native cattlo will
apply equally wll to western rangers.
Heef steers nnd cows have advanced fully
55c for the week, while stockurs nre 25c
lower. Good range butts are strong nnd
common ones about steady. Stags tiro per
haps selling a little better where the quality
Is satisfactory and the samo Is true of veal
calves,
HOGS Thero wa not n heavy run of
hogs hero todav and tho market opened
fairly active and Atcady to strong, ns com
pared with yesterday. Tho bulk of tho
early sales wen from $6.10 to $6.15, with a
few prime loads selling from $6.15 to $6.40.
'Die light stuff sold from $6.10 down. To
ward the closo of the market packers did
not seem to bu very nnxlous for supplies
nnd ns a result thu close was slow and
weak. Sellers were holding for tho morning
bids, which made It rather inl- before tho
hogs were tlnalK disposed of.
A slight decrease Is noted In the hog re
ceipts this weel', as compared with the last
sovcral weeks and also with the corruapond
Ing week of last year. Prices have Im
proved steadily and for the v.-k tho ad
vanco nmounts to about 2oc, which carries
the market to the highest point of the year
and In fact to tho highest point since Oc
tober 30, when the avcrago cost was $6.17.

SHEEP There wero n few sheep on sale
today und they sold without dltllculty at
good steady prices The quality, as has
been the case for the last few days, wns
nothing extra, so that a test of the market
on strictly prlmu stuff has not been made.
For tho week tho supplv of sheep has
been 'nthcr llsht, as a decrease Is noted
ns compared with tho last several weeks,
and the 1 apply U only about half as largo

The demand for good to choice ewes and
wethers was nctlvo all the week and prices
are 11 little stronger thnn tney were at tho
close of last wecK. The common stufT, how
ever, packers nro not at all anxious for and
the tendency Is to discriminate ngalnst such
grades.
'lhe mnrket for lambs of good quality is
also steady for the week, but sellers have
found it difficult to dispose of the common
kinds at steady prices, as the demand for
such kinds is very limited.
Feeders have been In fairly good demand
nil the wtek and on tho better grades of
both sheep and lambc prices are a little
stronger.
