Rains of Last Week Have Greatly Improved
the Ooudltion of Trade.
OUTLOOK FOR FALL BETTER THAN EVER
Mnrkvtn nn a Whole llrmnln Aliciut
Steady itlth but I'imv important
C It it 11 k "
Ilrimrl.
Tho trado outlook In this locality has
shown tf wonderful Improvement during
tho past week. There Is no doubt llutt trie
dry weather wan beginning to ferloutdy af
fect trade and It would not huvc bcti long
before tho Munition would have liPt-n crit
ical, hut ns rains came ut tho proper time
business Is moving along at a Rood rapid
rate Tho outlook for future business was
never better at this season of the year,
nnd Jobbers In practically all lines nre
looking for a steady Improvement In tho
volume of trade from now on. There has
already been considerable Improvement
since the rains, tho same as there was utter
the ruins In July, only It Is. If anything
tnoro marked In this ens, Iceauio the corn
crop Is now practically .insured and mer
chants no longer fear u failure. Traveling
men who have been heurd from In tho last
few days say tho Improvement In thn feel
ing existing out through the country Is
nstonl'hlng and the size nnd nutnoer of
tho orders they nro sending In go provo
tho correctness of lhlr statementH.
Ho far as tbe markets are concerned there
Is not much to he said .uput I i.suaily
ft (inlet month In respect ti market changes
nnd as u rule nearly all lines hob' about
steady The feeling, however. Is tlrm on
most lines ami higher prices nre being pre
dicted In a number of case. rules. f.ome
thlng out of the ordinary takes plaro Job
bers say the fall nnd winter markets will
bo In u good healthy condition.
Kmt CIiiiiikch III OrorrrlcK.
With hut few exceptions, the grocery
market remains unchanged. The demand
for both Immediate use and for futures Is
exceptionally good, and It looks now as
though tho September trade would break
all previous records for that month. There
Is no change to report In the entree mar
ket, as quotations are prucllculiy where
they were a week ago Conditions are
rather unsettled, but It It thought higher
prices nre bound to rule In the near fu
ture. Sugar Is also the !nme as It wns
a week ago. Tho demand Is very heavy
for August and Jobbers still maintain that
there Is liable to be a lively and higher
market In September. '
The new crop of tea Is now on the mar
ket and opening prices nre from 215 eenti
higher than they worn a year ago. Some
of this advance Is of course due to tho
Chinese disturbances, mid should they
nrow more xerloii mid he nrhloneod the
general opinion Is that still higher prices
would no put in rorce,
California goods are being quoted a llt
tlo higher than they were a week ago. .is
It begins to look as though the pack would
not be as heavy as anticipated. Tho ud
vnnoo amounts to 10 cents pr dozen nnd
covers nearly nil lines. California dried
peucbes and apricots have now nrrlved
on the market and are In good demand at
Btontlv nrlees. Cliee e Is a little stronger
than It was n week ago nnd quotation
rango from 'A to ) or a cent nigner. rrnr
tlcally all other lines remain where they
wro a week ho
HnriUvnre Mnrket Unlet.
nuslness with hardware Jobbers Is, of
course, a little quiet tbU month, but as
compared with last year at this time thorn
Is considerable activity. There Is as gooi'
a demand for nil seasonable lines us could
bo expected and no complaints are heard
on nny score, 'ine mnrKci is prncucnuy
the same as It was n week ano. no Impor
tant changes having taken place. There
are. of course, n few minor fluctuations, but
nothing worthy "f mention.
Thero has been a chnnge, however, that
Is of Importance to dealers In glo: For
t-'omo time past lobbers have been looking
for nn mlviineii In tilato u'.uss. and It was
announced last week nnd nmounts to 10
per cent. II went Into erteei August 11
and those who urn In a position to Know
niv thai ll will iii all nrobablllt v remnln
In effect several months rind until spring
ut least. Window glass Is also In a very
strong position and an advance on that
ns well would not be surprising, at- tho
prospect for an immenso fall demand Is
very nattering.
Nit CliniiKr In Dry (iooils.
Thero has not been a change In the drv
goods market this week that Is of Interest
to dealers In this section of tho country.
The cotton market Is, of course, very un-
rettled. but very little can be tout as yui
regarding the dual outcome Manufactur
ers, us n rule, aro holding their goods at
good strong prlres and unless tho buyers
wnnt them at the prices marked they ean
let them alone. Tho volume of business In
eastern markets Is on the Increase, and a
fair amount Is being transacted ror this
tlmo or year, with tne outtooK ror tne ru
turei very encouraging.
T.ncnllv. trndo Is also verv satisfactory
Tho rains have given now life to the trade
nnd traveling men nro sending In much
moro favorable reports than they were a
week or ten dnvs ago. .lubbers aro still
rushing out fall shipments and Irivn n
good many left. Taking everything Into
consideration, tho situation with dry goods
jobbers is very gratirying.
Drugs Active nnd lllKber.
The drug market Is still In a very strong
position and a number of advances have
taken place slnco the laBt report. The vol
ume of business still continue to bo ex
ceptionally heavy for this time of year,
nnd a still greater Improvement U looked
for In tho near future. As anticipated.
morphine has ndvutirrd, the rise amounting
to 10 cents per ounce Horn opium una
nuitilnc nro belna- held verv linn at last
week's quotations Illsniuth manufacturers
havo como together at last and as n. resu't
tho market Is not In n unsettled a condi
tion ns It has been. Cossla has also been
advanced and prices rango trom II to IH
ecu's. Cocoa butter Is still .a a vcrv rtrong
position, but quotations are about the snm
ns they have been, liluo vitriol is about
the only toinortant line that has declined
and that Is being quoted slightly lower In
barrel lots.
(ood fall Trnde.
Hoot nnd shoo Jobbers rep irt trade as
moving along In nice shape Immemnto
business Is. of course, rather quiet nt pres
ent, ns retailers aro not miving ror sum
mer use onlv what little thev absolutely
must have. V.ill trade, however. N In good
shapo nnd nt the present time dealers nro
busv getting1 out the advance order, whlcn
are heavier this year than ever bt'ote. It
Is nrobablv true thnt tint as much busi
ness has, been contracted for on tho snny
territory as last year, but Jobbers have
covered more territory this year and for
that reason hnvo obtained more busines,
There Is nnthlnir new to be said regard-
bur the rubber trade, as business In nbout
the same lis It has been for some tlmo
past. Full trade Is coming along In good
shapo nnd slnco the ralnsy he outlook W
verv encouraging.
The hide mnrket Is still In rather In
shape, with tho tendencv of prices down
wnrd rather than upward.
Fruit a ml Produce.
There has beun a good demand for fruits
and vegetniiies again tins weeK. but titer
has been very llttlo change In market quo
tatloiu. California fruit is still- tho loid

Poultry Is quoted the samo as It was

NEW YORIC. Aug. lS.-Hu'. for tho in
terest nroused by an analysis of the Brook
lyn Rnpld Transit nnnual statement, pro
fessional operators would have hail llttlo
material to Influence prices. Although thn
report showed that a shndo over 1 per cent
was earned on the stock, discussion of
apeclllc Items was unfavorable. For In
stance, the high ratio of operating x
penses, gutstnndlng- loans of Jl.OO.noj, re
celvedi comment. Decided picjsure was
exerted against the stock from the outset,
nn extreme loss of 2H being made, with th
1 ib i im n-uiiceii to ic on purcnases by
the short Interest In t'onnio n,u ,. r .,1
of 2 per cent was without adequate ex
planation, but this sto-'k also recovered
somewhat In the final dealings. Tin so
movements were the chief features of tin
mnrket, Its narrowness being nccantuattnt
by the nti-noire of London operation, It be
ing a holiday there. Railway stocks were
relatively better sustained than tlm general
run of specialties. The publication of tho
second week of August earnings for many
lines showing numerous Increases acted as
a prop for this division. These stitemonts
demonstrated Hint tnnnao wns Increasing
In widely separated seet'ons. For the
southwestern quarter. Missouri IMel'lo
showed a u-aln of $7li,C0O Jn tho h.
NorioiK ,c western led with $53 070 nnd the
west was represented by a gain of ;21.72o
In Chicago Great Western.
As the tlmo approached for tlm
publication of the b.ink statement
buhlness became very restricted Th
statement met general exiiectntbiiis ,is
to the cash lo-s of $.3I1.S00. Aeenmmoda
tlons to the underwriting yndlcate In eon
ncctlim with the Hrltlsh loan accounted fo
the greater part of the Increase In lo-,n of
$i,37.fW. Depostts were reduced J3,fi'jl,fl'J
and tho general effect wns the idirlukago Pi
surplus reserves of $7.K! A replenl-'h-ment
of the banks' losses tbh week Is .x
pected to occur speedily, advices fro-n Pa.
cltle (oast points annoui.clng the receipt of
$4.600.iiig Alaskan i-old. This. It is be loved,
will be made available to the I icil banks
by government draft on tho suhlreastiry
here. In addition payments aro now blng
made on account of redemption or the old
government 3.s. Involving some $00ot),mi0.
With these things taken Into consideration
110 general uneasiness Is felt as to tho im
mediate future of the monov market
The Wall street axiom, "when geld pies
out storl-s go down," for once wns ex
ploded this week, as tli- shipment of ovr
$s000,)0 was uttended by rl-i'nir prices. Ai
the cxiiortnlion of ovi r M7,itXVvO gdd dur.
Ine tho past two weeks does not make very
serious Inroads on the country's holdings
nnd us constant accession are being re
ceived from tiaturiil sources. Wall street's
equanimity was not surprising. Where the
dectlno will be most keenly felt Is In the
reserves of the New York CItv banks. DIs.
cushIou of Its Intlueiii'o on future uvuiey
conditions had some weight on the market
vhIuks In the closing days of the week. In
consequence of th sales of Rterlln? 1)11 In
ugalnst tho gold, rates for tight drnfts re
acted 1 cent to the pound A withdraw 11
of interest allowances and a current r ue
of $4 S7' for demand muko further ship
ments unlikely
With the government s forclirn tndr
stutement faliowliib' u bulatuc in our fuor
In seven months of $.K',0'iO gold Impor
tations n the fall seem well assured
Monetary renditions abroad relaxed, tnon-'v
nnd discounts casing In London and the
continent also showing relaxation. N
change In local money rates occurred while
the rise w.vs on. Call rates touched ls4 In
anticipation of an unfavorable bank state
ment. Manipulation was a factor In effect
ing wide movements In the mercurial spe
cialties. At times the professional
operators experienced some dllllculty In
keeping special stocks within circum
scribed limits, the market becoming
broader and outside orders being executed.
Brooklyn Tr.tnsl was J fgglcd on predic
tions as to Its forthcomlns annual report
Sugar vibrated on trade and dividend pros
pects and tho coalers were affected by
vague reports. Respecting the rise In the
railroads more definite facts were cited,
liKl.idlng Improvements In the crops and
weekly earnings. Steel Issues responded to
the tenor of the trade news and the nego
tiations with labor bodies As a result of
theso various lntluences prices rose from 2
to 6 points and the general feeling beenme
more confident. In the Inst half of th
session realizations by the Interests which
wero most active In the rise and dlseiu'slon
of the Saturday bank statement produced a
general decline. Enough of the week's ud
vance. however, In the general list was re
tained to Indicate many material gains.
Prices In the bond market conformed
closely to the development In stocks. In
terest wns marked In middle-grade Issues,
Tutted Stales refunding 2s. when Issued,
iidvnnced i nnd old 4s 14fi,i In the bid
price. Tho prices declined , per cent.
Tho Financier says: Practically every
change In weekly showing of the New York
banks can be traced to gold exports. The
less In cash aggregated $.8,311,000. of which
amount $S.ic6,9Ju was specie and $231,900 legal
tenders. It ennnot be said that the shrink
age of $7.5iis.900 In the surplus reserve cor
responds with other changes In tho state
ment. Tho contraction should have been
considerably larger when the heavy de
crease In cush, together with tho decrease
of $.1,091,000 In deposits, which lessened re
serve requirements to the extent of $750,000,
Is taken Into consideration An Increase In
loans under normal conditions is accom
panied by an Increase In deposits. Tho dis
crepancy In the two Items Is attributed to
Items Incident to the Prltlsh exchequer
loan. In other words the gold wlthdrawil
from the banks for export has been entered
In the books ns a lonn. Therefore tho
specie contraction prevented an Increase tit
deposits which would havo resulted had the
loans been made by means of checks and
not by actual withdrawals of cash. It Is
evident from the decrease In deposits that
the statement would actually have dis
played 11 contraction In loans had It not
been for the gold withdrawn fr export.
It was reported .Saturday that withdrawals
of cash In connection with subscription:! to
stock of the Consolidated Has company
were henvy during the latter part of tho
week and will bo rellected In next Satur
day's statement. Considerable cash will be
dlsbutscd tills week on account of tho tc
funding of tho extended 2 per cent govern
ment bonds, which will i;o a long way to
ward replnrlug the gold lost by export.

SHHHP There were no fresh arrival of
sheep today and what few were held over
from yesterday buers did not seem to
want owing to the very weak market -In
Chlcaco.
Receipts for the week have been quite
liberal, thou c li not up to last week " ipph
by 2,919 head, but ns compared with tho
corresponding week of last jrar there Is n
gain of 22,0;t0. The ninrkct 011 l.tmbs was In
good shape all the week until Friday,
when tho big break In Chicago caused u llt
tb easier feeling here, but the week closed
with values lujibv huher than nt tho
opening of the week, and In some cases per
haps more than that. The tendetuy on
sheep, however, has been lower and tho
week closed with prices lMi86c lower than
at tho opening, ami owing to the detnornl
Ir.cd condition of the Chicago market tho
feeling here ut the close was very weak and
the market dull.
