fairly satisfactory und are reported ns n rule
In excess of last .veur. Collections have been
very good until this week , when there hus
been a noticeable slowness , attributable to
the approach of harvest , when the time nnd
energy of the country nro devoted to secur
ing the crops. The outlook for n heavy fall
trade is very good indeed , nnd with n con
tinuance of the present favorable weather
the results will show up in a very dcsirablo
way.

The American Hanker states that n coun

made Its appearance in Now York. The bill
wns much soiled and badly frayed nt the
edges , On counterfeits of this issue the
words "for ten , " In the sentence , "This note
Is a legal tender for ten dollars , " are so close
together as to look like one word. In this
specimen the paper has been ingeniously torn
so as to conceal this blunder. In the woid
"this , " on the back , the "h" nnd "i" are run
together nnd look lllco un "m. " The check
letter on this bill is O.
Private advices state that the deficiency
in the French wheat crop has already led to
heavy purchases of wheat on the Pacific
coast for direct export to Trance.
A reduced crop of honey is expected in
California. There nro not hnlf so m my bees
in southern California as there were six
yonis ago nnd the supply of sago and other
honey furnishing shrubs has boon diminished

land.

Hcports from 1,313 correspondents , cover
ing the fruit-growing roglons of New Eng
land , Now York and Michigan , show nn
enormous yield of grapes in all sections , u re
markably short crop of pears of all varieties.
acin tailed crop of plums nnd n full crop of
peaches in Delaware , Michigan nnd other
sections where commercially grown , with u
limited production in the peach orchards of
southern Now England. High prices nro
considered positively certain for pears and
plums , with medium values for grapes nnd
peaches , but grapes held for the winter market -
kot will doubtless command comparatively
fancy prices. The apple crop is , on the
whole , considerably less than "oven year"
production two years niro , owing to drouth
in some sections , cold weather nt the time of
blooming , and premature dropping of the
fruit.
Coffee Is mord active , prices ruling weak.
Good Kio is not overplcnty and commands u
premium. The following important intelli
gence is contained in the Hio News of a late
date : " \Vo hear complaints ns to the un
sightly appearance of the greater part of the
coffees coming to market , but are also in
formed that it furnishes very good 'roasted,1 '
nnd , as the trade is now principally conducted
by roasters , it appears to us that appearance
Is of less importance now than specific
gravity. "
Hico is selling freely , but the supply of do
mestic rice is short , nnd three largo steamers
hnvo recently arrived at Now York laden
with rice from Japan. This year the amount
of rico imported into the United Stntes , es
pecially from Japan , is unusually lurge.
The Glcnshiel , the first ten ship via Suez
canal , has arrived after a passage of forty-
live days from Amoy. She brought a cargo
of 1 , (153 ( , ( XX ) Ibs tea , Oolongs and Japans , of
which ubout ono third the former and ono-
hnlf the Inttct have been sold previous to ar
rival by overland samples.
The coal traffic agents of the Pennsylvania ,
Uoading , Lchifih Valley , Now Jerboy Cen
tral and Now York , Lane Krio & Western
railroads at thu Long Urnuch meeting de
cided to advance thu freight rate on coal
rates from 5 to 10 cents per ton. The ques
tion of west-bound nil-rail rates was consid
ered und nn ndvunco on the basis of 5 cents
per ton to Chicago was oidored. This makes
the now rnto to HufTulo t'J.'JS per ton and to
Chicago S 1.50 per ton. These revised tariffs
will go into cftuct on September 1 , und the
usual ten days' notice will bo issued to the
trade. According to the statement made by
a participant of the meeting the ndvnnces
were unanimously endorsed and the now
rates will operate until January 1 , when an
other mooting of these officials will bo hold
to determine the advisability of a still fur
ther advance.

CIIICAOO , August 13. [ Special Telegram to
TUB HKK.J Some of the steam was let oft
to-dity nnd the wheat market luled cosier.
The opening range was tf < < $ } { c below yester
day's , closing raiiKO September starting oft
at lo nnd December nt S7c. September
worked down to SHe nnd December toiCc. .
This represented a shrinkage of le compared
with yesterday's last prices. The little longs
unloaded on a slow niarkot mid bearish room
trailers helped prices down. Hutchlnson
was by largo odds , the henvlest individual
buyer to-day as he was yesterday. Ho 1ms
become an avowed bull on the market but Is
not recorded ns predicting nil extravagant
udvanoe. The market recovered its toao
and , during the last half of the
session , better prices were obtain-
nblo for wheat. Uoforo the close
the rnngo of quotations was nearly back to
yesterday's ' figures nnd the market was
" with undertone. "
quoted "steady n good
There was n rich assortment of , news to
select from this forenoon. Most cables
quoted fine weather abroad and some of them
had easier markets and buyers holding off.
Ono represented the recent estimates of crop
damage ns absurd , A few , however , men
tioned lower prices nud most of them quoted
the foreign markets as steady , many quoUng
higher figures bid and asked. New York
waft bullish in ttio inuiii nnd that market
ruled relatively firmer than Chicago all day ,
though it was observed that New York fur
nished the boars their heaviest club , in the
absence of clearances In blackboard returns.
Even the bulls are getting anxious on the
score of export business and their
courage would bo greatly fortified
by shipment from the seaboard.
The oft-repeated statement is made that
wheat is going out and that shipments dur
ing the last week in August and all through
the month of September will bo immense ,
but that docs not fill the bill as actual move
ment. That is to say , it does not satisfy
speculative trade as well. Reports from the
northwest nro mixed. The Tribune's head
lines tins morning had something to do with
the weak opening , and u good man } ' people
on the floor hud dispatches to the effect that
the reports of damage by frost had been
exaggerated. Later advices from the most
reliable men in the elevator and grain trade
in Minneapolis and Dulutb , nnd other im
portant points in the spring wheat country ,
wore in n different key. Conservative men
are not disposed to make light of the frost or
to underestimate the dauiago , though they
are naturally reluctant to send out bulletins
ot a sensational character. Tlioy know the
damage has been done ; they are trying
now to find its extent. Not a
few of them show plainly in the
tone of their advices that they are discour
aged at the prospects. It is , nevertheless ,
true that the gravity of the situation is not
generally understood for the reason , doubt
less , that the1 great run of traders are
trained to discredit crop damage news on
general principlqs , and it takes a mass of evi
dence to convince them. The free move
ment of wheat from primary markets keeps
up , nnd the failure to iind an outlet for gram
nt the seaboard is resulting In the accumula
tion of the property at eastern points. This
pressure may be relieved in the near future.
September opened at S4c , ranged nt V.l % @
84 , ' c nnd closed at 84J c. December opened
at 87c , ranged nt S0 4(3S7c ( , nnd closed nt
80J < c. The volume of trading was not largo.
The corn market wns very dull. The
little bulls nnd little bears are doing
next to nothing , nnd the big
longs nud big shorts are resting
on their oars , neither side caring
to extend their risks nnd neither side being
willing to abandon the position taken. The
market to-day was nervous though slow nnd
and in a condition to advance sharply had
any attempt been made to buy largely or to
have declined quickly on signs of n disposi
tion to sell. It was not u good market to
cither buy or sell on. Fluctuations were
within } fo limits , prices never going over
yesterday's last range , but closings show
only a small shrinkage as compared with
yesterday. September ranged at 4-n ( it44I c
nnd October nt 44 @ 44 c.
Oats shared in the general quietude to-day ,
and price changes were few nnd unimportant
in nil futures. Cash and seller the month
were easier , while futures beyond September
wore in fair request and llnn , witu May rul
ing XQ higher. Cash buyers demanded
small commissions on No. 2 in store , which
sold ' : fc lower nt 25V o , with seller August
about steady. There was an absence of any
special speculative interest , and the market
was nt times very dull.
In provisions there was nriothor recovery
from the Yellow Jack uneasiness. Advircs
from the infected portion of Florida were
again encouraging , and in its movement the
trade was controlled inoro by ordinary influ
ences than for over a week. Light receipts
of hogs , an advance of 5@10c in the same
nnd a better disposition upon the part of cash
buyers of product to tnko hold , strengthened
the long side of the market. The opening
was a little timid , at least in pork , but as the
day advanced a strong feeling was mani
fested all around. Higher prices were the
rule , and ns compared with yesterday's ' final
quotations , pork nt 1 o'clock rested at an im
provement of l c , lard of U c , and short
ribs of 12 > < c.

Cntctoo , August 13. fSiwilnl Telegram
to Tim IluK.l The week him witnessed a
material Improvement In nornl trade , and
Increased preparations have been made for
enlargou transactions In nearly all directions.
The result of such movements has been to
Inyrcuso the demand for discounts nt the
banks , nud , although tardy movement of
wheat from the interior und the fact that
shipments at nearly all points wCro so close
up to the arrivals as to prevent the accumula
tion of stocks and accordingly lessen the de
mand for money with which to carry wheat ,
the offerings of other paper were sufllclently
heavy to give discount Institutions employ
ment for about all their loiinublo funds , and
rates have ruled firm. A few largo institu
tions nro still advancing on fancy names and
collaterals at 5 per cent , but the majority nsk

is not going to the country with the freedom
observed ut this time in former years and
will not do so until the grain crops move
moro freely tTlnn they are now doing. There
is a disposition in some quarters to create
the impression that the money market will
become uncomfortably tight during the fall
and rates rule materially higher than
those now current , but neither the
business outlook nor the volume of
money In circulation Justify such conditions
nor will high rates bcconio possible unless
there is an unlooked-for Inci ease in specula
tion and the corrosK > ndiug inflation of prices
occurred. The fact that the secretary of the
treasury is likely to buy $10,000,000 in sink-
hit ; fund bonds and will disburse thatnmount
of money in cnse the situation Justifies it is
also n guarantee against high rates. Jobbers
report an Improving demand for goods from
the interior nnd collections on maturing bills
very satisfactory.
The New York stock market was duller ,
and the evidence that the public are out of
the market and that professionals nro boomIng -
Ing it to get in n fresh supply of lambs to
shear them is moro conclusive than at
any previous time in weeks. Strong
efforts have been made to
advance "coalers" by reports of u hardening
tendency and n fi@10c advance In rates for
coal and the largo demand and steadily grow
ing tonnage of coal roads. But despite all
these ullurlng features the market showed a
tendency to drae , and although there were
frequently small spurts they proved only
temporary. Crop news from the west was
not of a character to inspiio confidence in
higher prices In "granger" stocks , and they
were the weakest on the list , and by their
'
persistent dragging caused frequent' slumps
in general market. The "Longs" who had
previously loaded up in ex pec tut Ion of u de
cided boom , became suspicious nnd unloaded ,
nnd during the closing days the market was
well filled with stock bought , in some
Instances at higher prices , und it was easier
to buy than to soil all leading securities. The
" " recorded the decline
"Grangers" largest and
were led by Chlongo , Hurlington & Quincy ,
which decreased its dividend to 1 per cent.
This is n heavy como down for a company
that has stood at the head of the western
roads for years as the largest grain carrier
and ono of the best dividend payer. The
earnings nro fair but a great army of invest
ors want to sco them materially Increased be
fore they take hold for permanent invest
ment. The market closed comparatively
easy. Thojaggrcgnto sales for the wcok oil
the Now York stock exchange were 055,371
shares.
Trading In speculative circles was more in
teresting the past week , und although the
volume failed to show n perceptible Increase
it was slightly larger than the proceeding
week. Outside orders , while not so abundant
as the commission houses would like to sec ,
were on a fairly liberal scnlo ami were us
good as can bo expected under the present
unsettled circumstances as this is a period of
the year when speculators generally rest pre
paratory to beginning the active fall und
winter campaign. The movement of grain nt
nil the leading western points has
been larger nud shipments on on equally lib
eral scale. Continued wet , unseasonable
weather in many sections lias not boon fuvor-
aolo for harvesting uud the repot ts of dum-
ngo to small grain huvo been numerous , and
the quality of now grain being marketed
shows no improvements. The reports from
abroad nro highly encouragingtotho ' 'bulls , "
crops In the United Kingdom and the leading
consuming countries on the continent being
sadly deficient. This moans that thev will
want moro of our surplus. Export purchases
were on a larger scale and shipments from
this city and the leading seaboard ports
show n good increase. Karly in the week
prices were slightly depressed , but later u
sharp rally occurred that carried prices up
moro rapidly than they had declined. Uo-
ports of an increased number of cases of yel
low fever in the south materially depressed
the market for provisions by causing a gen
eral realizing and ulso checked the consump
tion demand from those sections. The ar
rivals of hogs nt all western points were
small and the quality poor , causing a deckled
decrease In packing In the west compared
with the same time lust year.
