Monstary Situation Improving and Build- ing Operations Keviving. FOURTH AYENUE PE0PEETI PICKED UP While nothing of an unusal nature In busi- ness circles transpired the past week, there was a decided improvement in neaily all lines of trade. Businoss paper was more urgent, showing a disposition to get in on tho ground floor, and bankers wero satisfied with the outcome. The Clearing House did a land office business, exchanges being next to the best of the year and more than $1,000,-00-0 in excess of the same week in 1SS9. With regard to fall prospects It can be said with- out hazard that business men havo unshaken confidence of a brisk, if not heavy, trade. Many crooked things have beenstraightoned since the year opened. Weak spots have been strengthened. Mushroom concerns have flourished and faded. No more large failures are oxpocted. Builders and architects will now push forward work in hand. A good deal of new work will be hurried In. The monetary condition is better, and that helps; iron trade difficulties have been settled and that helps also. But the great bull card is the enormous crops at homo and the small cropB abroad. What these mean for the countrv need not be pointed ont further than that they will give the rail- roads all the business tnoy can handle, tho railroads will keep the iron mills at work, and the mills will keep everything elso moving. This is likely to be a hallelujah year after all. A Fourth Avenue Deal. Among the most Important transactions in real estate during the week was the sale by Samuel W. Black & Co. of Nos. 49 and 51 Fourth avenue, two three story brick build- ings on a lot 40x54, to a prominent merchant, for $25,000. This being leasehold property ac- counts for the very moderate price. It ad- joins the handsome building lately erected by E. C. Buoh, Esq., and is occupied by Lee Yick as a laundrv and by Dr. Thompson as an office. The purchase was for investment. The Building Outlook. There has been a partial revival of the building trade. When the carpenters' strike was in its incipienoy contractors and planing mill men added a margin to their bids to cover contingencies, and par- ties who had secured permits, plans and specifications, finding tbomselves confronted with Increased cost of building, in the face of a stringent money market, with a strong probability of troubles and delays from strikes, postponed building. Consequently only buildings required for immediate occu- pancy have been erected. Many thousand dollars intended for houses, business and residence lie idle in the vaults. Capital and population, however, require a certain amount of buildmg each year, and that which is not done now must be done later on, and it is therefore predicted with confi- dence that a full revival of building activity is inevitable, sooner or later. Dimes Locked Up. As remarked some time ago, the invention of the bank, which will not open un- til five or ten dollars' worth of dimes are in- serted in it, has made a scarcity of pieces, which is making trouble among business men and the Treasury Department. It is estimated that 75 per cent of the coinage outstanding is locked up, and there is loud call for an additional supply. The Treasury officials find the labor of counting these small coins much greater than that of oounting silver dollars or paper currenoy. Business News and Gossip. Where there is a great deal of smoke there must be some Are. Thero was more tall talk yesterday about the big Smithfleld street deal. It was denied by one of the reputed purchasers. Property owners should come down from their exalted position in regard to prices or buyers should have larger pocketbooks. In either case business would improve. An important deal In real estate at Brad-doc- in which the Pennsylvania Bailroad is Interested, has been closed, but particulars could not be obtained. Tho Burrell Improvement Company sold nine lots at Kensington on Friday, at prices ranging from $680 to $255. All the city banks observed the half holi- day yesterday except the Diamond, Ex- change and Bank of Pittsburg. The Pennsylvania Water Company sap-- ?lics Wilkmsburg, Brushton, Homowood, Place, Edgewood and Swissvale. At the call yesterday S3J was bid for Man- chester; Birmingham ofiered 2 and 93 flat bid for Birmingham bonds, offered 91 flat. The London market was disturbed yester- day on account of the failure of the English Bank at Eio de en Plata. It is said liabilities are $35,000 000. Bailroad earnings Northern Pacific, sec- ond week July, decrease, $6,828; Erlanger system, first week July, Increase, $11839; iJenver and Eio Grande, second week July, increase, $18 800, Wabash, second week July, increase, $10,000, Teas Pacific, second week July, increase, $1,147.

Not a Sale to Break the Monotony and Very Few Bids. Nobody wants oil that is, no outsider. Tho Standard is tho only buyer. This makes it easy and natural to say there were no transactions last week. This condition of stagnation is ceasing to attract attention or provoke comment. Traders and producers expect it and say nothing. The latter possess the means to bring about a change, but say they cannot combine on a plan. It Is a house divided eg linst itself. The highest bid of the week was 67Jc and the lowest 66Kc Daily average runs wero 70,525; daily average shipments 68,680. Buns increased about 7,000 barrels during the week and shipments nearly 2,000.

HOME SECURITIES. FEATURES OF THE SPECULATIVE MAR- KET DURING THE WEEK. Settlement or tho Electric Difficulty Cause for Congratulation Nothing to Cast a Shadow Over the Outlook Sales and Quotations Review or the Field. The outcome of the stock market the past week was bettor than had been expected. The elimination of the Westinghouse com- plication imparted a stronger tone, and steady values were the natural sequence. Salos aggregated 1,310 shares, against about t00 the provious week. Luster led, with 368 shares, folloyircd by Hidalgo with 300, and Philadelphia Gas with There was a fair demand all through for the leaders, showing that buyers Imd not lost confidence and gi en the market the go by. Closing prices as compared with those of tho pievious Siturday show the following changes- - Switch and Signal gained K, Air- brake , Underground Cable IK, Central Traction Luster lost IK, Electric . Of tho tractions, Pleasant Valley, Second Avenue and Citizens' were nominally lower, but as final quotations wore dividend off, there was practically no change. Electric scrip advanced to 75. The market, as will be seen, ii as narrow, but nothing transpired to impair confidence or cast a shadow over tho outlook. ' Skirmisher" says in his weekly review: "Tho nrincmal events in local stock circles during the week were the adoption of tho Electric and Manufacturing Company's re- organization plan and the declaration of the regular dividend by the Pleasant Valley Passenger Bailway. "As is well known, the embarrassment of the first named interest, one of the most im- portant in Pittsburg or the country, seri- ously affected all lines of trade. To the stock markot, it was literally an 'Old Man of the Sea' acting as a foil to every forward im- pulse. It is clear, therefore, that theie-mov- of this incubus will have a stimulat- ing effect upon business by permitting other and favorable conditions to exercise their legitimate office, which is to strengthen con- fidence in the soundness of the financial situation, inspire hope of better things to come, and point out to owners of securities the necessity of keeping out of the market until the time arrives for a reaction. For a time it w as feared that compulsory liquida- tion would make a serious impression upon values. It is now thought that this danger is over. As a rule, stocks are in strong hands and will not be forced npon an un- willing maiket. "Tiie dividend of the Pleasant Valley Street Bailway gives an inadequate impres- sion of the profits of the road. The figures pla:e them at the rate of 6 per cent annu- ally, when they are really 8 or 9. It was thought best to keep the dividend down to the regular amount and augment the sur- plus, so as to maintain the company in a position to carry out its various projects for improvement. The Pleasant Valley, In point of earnings is next to tho Citizens' Traction. Noncr but good words can be spoken of the entiio rapid transit system of Pittsburg. All of the roads are running smoothlv the Duquesne showing very de- cided improvement in this respeot. Bivalry, while still acute, is less aggressive, the adoption of adequate measures to prevent accidents has strengthened the confidence of the public, and tiavel has Increased. I amasstionglyasever of the opinion that street railway stocks are a good purchase at ruling prices In saying this, I look to the future even more than to the present. The growth of the city should be kept in view in estimating the value of these securi- ties "In regard to the financial situation, there is nothing especially new to be said. While there has been some improvement in the Pittsburg market, due to a better call for commercial paper, denoting more activity ingoneial trade, conditions bearing npon the supply and distribution of money in practically unchanged. The outlook, however, is decidedly better. With Europe destitute of breadstuffs there is no danger of further gold exports exoept in the ordinary way of squaring balanoes, and they aro far more likely to be in our favor than against us. At some points the tendenoy is toward increased firmness in Interest rates as a means of discouraging outside loans pend-ingth- e marketing ol tho crops, whioh is sure to stimulate the demand tor commercial paper. Tho situation, viewed from almost any standpoint, is gratifying. Good times will come, xneyaie coming. .Every factor that enters into business is tending toward this consummation." The only transaction yesterday was 55 Pleasant Valley at 23. Final bids and ask- ing prioes for the week are appended: BANK STOCKS. Bid. Asked. Commercial Nstlonil Bank 93 City Savings . 60 ....

A Chicago authority sajs: "Just now the wants of the speculative class receive no at- tention whatever at bank, but, on the other hand, a number of reckless operators in stocks, grain or acres have been brought up with a round turn. Six per cent is rapidly becoming the rate for all classes of bank ad- vances, as very few financial institutions have funds to place on call below that fig- ure." At New York, although the supply of money is abundant and the call and short time rate low, lenders do not as yet show any special anxiety to put out time money. They prefer to loan their money at three and fourmonths rather than stxmonths.arfd while conceding a little in rates, they also are more lenient in tho matter of collateral. At New York yesterday money on call was easy, with all loans at 2 per cent, closing offered at 2 per cent. Prime mercantile paper,5g7.

Nearly All Shares Decline Large Fractions, but Before the Close Recover Most of the Losses A Very Small Business la Railroad Bonds. New York, July 18 The failure of the English Bank of the Elver Platte was an- nounced in London this morning and caused materially lower prices for all kinds of stocks there. Our market felt the effects of this decline, and while the opening prices hero were above the London equivalents, large fraotions wore knocked off most of the active shares. The opportunity to sell the market down was not to be neglected by the bears, however, and they joined with the foreign sellers in prossing the market down. The stocks which have an international market, in the main, suffered the most un- der the circumstances, but Burlington and Lackawanna led tho downward movement, the bear pressure being specially heavy on the latter on account of some supposed trouble in the coal trade. Each of theso stocks lost 1 per cent, while tho rest of the list declined only fractions if at all. The downward movement was checked before the expiration of the first half hour, however, and while there was no disposition to buy for the long account, the covering of shorts helped prices up a little, and later, when the bank statement was Issued, show- ing material gains in cash and surplus re- serve, the buying became more pronounced and the upward movement was accelerated. Prices in the last few minutes were brought up to about the level of those of the opening, and the market closed firm though quiet at the recovery. The final changes aTe insig- nificant in all cases, being generally the losses made at the opening of business only. The trading in railroad bonds went down to tho smallest proportions again the two hours of business yielding sales of only $219,000, while the fluctuations were confined to a corresponding narrow limit. No ten- dency of prices in either direction was to be deteoted. Will Return Our Gold. John M. Oakley & Co.'s correspondents wired: "Waiting is the watchword and watching Is the waiting word. This is the situation summed up, or as a broker put it the other day, 'Wo are full of hope, chuck full of hope but when it comes to business there is none ' This apathy excites the ap- prehensions of the followers of the stock market and one of our esteemed broker clients in writing us says: 'Is not the fear on the other side that wo are drifting on to a silver basis the mam cause of our loss of gold and the accumulation of silver by our banks? Will not we get securities in pay- ment of our breadstuffs instead of gold? Are not our crops overestimated and the meagre-ness- European crops exaggerated? Is not our spring wheat crop below last year m condition, and the corn crop late? If we do not got back our gold, will we not havo hard times in money?' "These are ourfrlend'sappreheuslons.held by others, probably tho majority of theso who are interested m our financial affairs, and who consider them, but wo believe that Europe will have to return to usourgold and that they will of necessity use largely our ccieals, that our crops will in all proba- bility average bettor and larger than for years, and that this growing, prosperous country of ours, with all its aggressiveness and its unbounded resources, will before long assert its inherent strength and re- sources and the foreign capitalist will surely come to a realising sense and keen appreciation of the opportunities here afforded him and return his bullion for in- vestments. In the meantime we mayseoa somewhat lower range of prices. To day's market has been like many others gone before." Homo Influences Unchanged. Henry Clews & Co. furnish the following points to Investors- - "The Stock Exchange moves along sluggishly, with Its dally salos of about 100 000 shares, ono day favoring the bulls and next the bears, but with no fixed tendency either one way or tho other. Only one thing remains fixed the predominant oonviction that stocks are intrinsically worth the price at which they aio now held. This estimate protects the market against the attacks of the room traders, but it does not elicit any outside buying. It may possi- bly prove to bo the bases of a buy- ing movement at some later stage, but at present its benefit to the mai- ket is rather negative than positive. Although the secrets of the diplomatic conferences of last week at London m-i- not bo divulged, yet Europe avill henceforth re- paid the Driebund as virtually backed, at least under certain contingencies, by the moral and physical force of Great Butain. Tins is a ch utge of profound importance in tho situation of European politics. It places Eussia and France at such an overwhelming disadvantage as to virtually bind over thoe countries to keep tho peace on penalty of utter discomfiture. Such a result would bring direct advantages to this country. AH that is needed to give full effect to tho benefits of our abundant harvest is a restor- ation of confidence in the countries with which wo have commercial Intercourse. It would mean better foreign markets and better prices for our grain, as well us for all other exportable products. Tho Finish In Gotham.

GRAIN MARKETS REVERSED. Wheat Now the Strong Point and Corn the Weak Prices Easier on Oats Provis- ions Advance and Then Go Back to the Opening Prices. CHICAGO Wheat was more active y and strong most of the session. For the first few minutes it seemed inolined to be weak, then wobbled a little, but Anally struck it3 gait and sold up Jc, and held Arm most of the day. Corn held firm for a short time and then flattened out. September closed Jc lower than on Friday. Pork, lard and ribs had an early advance and a subsequent decline, leaving them about at yesterday's closing quotations. The very general, and places very heavy, rains, together with steadier foreign markets and an active demand for export reported from New York and other seaboard citios, gave to the wheat market its stronger tone. The demand for the near months was better than it has ruled of late, more especi- ally for August and September. It was as- serted that probably 75 per cent of the re- ceipts to bo expected here for the next two months were already placed for shipment to Eastern millers and foreign countries. The opening price for December wa3 86J 66c, followed immediately by a drop to E6c. It stiffened up and reaohed 8oJo in about an hour from the start, with a strong feeling on the advance. It held up well, be- ing supported bv an active demand for cash wheat and a decided improiement in July and August, which were both in good re- quest in the pit. A sudden drop in the pneo of corn and an estimated receipt of 523 cars for Jlonday weakened wheit somewhat toward the close and December sold off to 86Vc: but the leported sales from New York of 60 boat loads and the active Inquiry for cash wheat here steadied the market and the close was firm at 6c for December and 86Vc for July. Com was steady and seemed Inclined to firmness early In the session, shorts taking hold very freely, and September opened IVic better than It closed last night, selling at 53 53Jc, but the cash demand was not so urgent, and prices were easier, owing largely to the fear that shipments made now by fake and canal cannot reach the seaboard m time to fill sales for July. Then came the estl-tima- te of 525 cars for Monday, and there was a seasoi of free selling, under whioh Sep- tember broke to 51c a deoline of ljc re- acted some, and at the close was about 52Wc. July sold at 69c, eased off to CTJc, while August fell from S5o to BlJc. Oats ruled lower mainly on the increas- ing receipts of new oats, 12 cars having been Inspected July was traded in spar- ingly and sold from Sijicto 34c. August sold from 27Jc to 27JiC, and September from 27o to2bKe. Pork was nervously strong and higher, but lard and ribs did not share in the strength in pork. Prices at the yards were 10c higher. This started shorts to covering, and Septem- ber pork sold from $11 20 to $11 30, fell to $11 i0, reacted to $11 35, then broke to $11 15, but at 12 o'clock was $11 15i!gll 20. Septem- ber lard steady at $6 556 60. while Septem- ber ribs sold at $6 70tf 75, and at 12 o'clock was $6 70 bid. The leading futures ranged as follows, as corrected by John M.

    TRADE OF THE WEEK.

    Good Prospect for a Hallelujah YearAfter All the Trouble.

    EVERYTHING POINTING THAT WAY.

    Monstary Situation Improving and Build-ing Operations Keviving.

    FOURTH AYENUE PE0PEETI PICKED UP

    While nothing of an unusal nature In busi-ness circles transpired the past week, therewas a decided improvement in neaily alllines of trade. Businoss paper was moreurgent, showing a disposition to get in ontho ground floor, and bankers wero satisfiedwith the outcome. The Clearing House dida land office business, exchanges being nextto the best of the year and more than $1,000,-00-0

    in excess of the same week in 1SS9. Withregard to fall prospects It can be said with-out hazard that business men havo unshakenconfidence of a brisk, if not heavy, trade.Many crooked things have beenstraightonedsince the year opened. Weak spots have beenstrengthened. Mushroom concerns haveflourished and faded. No more large failuresare oxpocted. Builders and architects willnow push forward work in hand. A gooddeal of new work will be hurried In. Themonetary condition is better, and thathelps; iron trade difficulties have beensettled and that helps also. But the greatbull card is the enormous crops at homo andthe small cropB abroad. What these meanfor the countrv need not be pointed ontfurther than that they will give the rail-roads all the business tnoy can handle, thorailroads will keep the iron mills at work,and the mills will keep everything elsomoving. This is likely to be a hallelujahyear after all.

    A Fourth Avenue Deal.Among the most Important transactions

    in real estate during the week was the saleby Samuel W. Black & Co. of Nos. 49 and 51Fourth avenue, two three story brick build-ings on a lot 40x54, to a prominent merchant,for $25,000. This being leasehold property ac-counts for the very moderate price. It ad-joins the handsome building lately erectedby E. C. Buoh, Esq., and is occupied by LeeYick as a laundrv and by Dr. Thompson asan office. The purchase was for investment.

    The Building Outlook.There has been a partial revival of the

    building trade. When the carpenters'strike was in its incipienoy contractors andplaning mill men added a margin to theirbids to cover contingencies, and par-ties who had secured permits, plans andspecifications, finding tbomselves confrontedwith Increased cost of building, in the faceof a stringent money market, with a strongprobability of troubles and delays fromstrikes, postponed building. Consequentlyonly buildings required for immediate occu-pancy have been erected. Many thousanddollars intended for houses, business andresidence lie idle in the vaults. Capital andpopulation, however, require a certainamount of buildmg each year, and thatwhich is not done now must be done lateron, and it is therefore predicted with confi-dence that a full revival of building activityis inevitable, sooner or later.

    Dimes Locked Up.As remarked some time ago, the invention

    of the bank, which will not open un-til five or ten dollars' worth of dimes are in-serted in it, has made a scarcity ofpieces, which is making trouble amongbusiness men and the Treasury Department.It is estimated that 75 per cent of thecoinage outstanding is locked up, and thereis loud call for an additional supply. TheTreasury officials find the labor of countingthese small coins much greater than that ofoounting silver dollars or paper currenoy.

    Business News and Gossip.Where there is a great deal of smoke there

    must be some Are. Thero was more tall talkyesterday about the big Smithfleld streetdeal. It was denied by one of the reputedpurchasers.

    Property owners should come down fromtheir exalted position in regard to prices orbuyers should have larger pocketbooks. Ineither case business would improve.

    FEATURES OF THE SPECULATIVE MAR-KET DURING THE WEEK.

    Settlement or tho Electric Difficulty Causefor Congratulation Nothing to Cast aShadow Over the Outlook Sales andQuotations Review or the Field.

    The outcome of the stock market the pastweek was bettor than had been expected.The elimination of the Westinghouse com-plication imparted a stronger tone, andsteady values were the natural sequence.Salos aggregated 1,310 shares, against aboutt00 the provious week. Luster led, with 368shares, folloyircd by Hidalgo with 300, andPhiladelphia Gas with There was a fairdemand all through for the leaders, showingthat buyers Imd not lost confidence andgi en the market the go by.

    Closing prices as compared with those oftho pievious Siturday show the followingchanges- - Switch and Signal gained K, Air-brake , Underground Cable IK, CentralTraction Luster lost IK, Electric .Of tho tractions, Pleasant Valley, SecondAvenue and Citizens' were nominally lower,but as final quotations wore dividend off,there was practically no change. Electricscrip advanced to 75. The market, as willbe seen, ii as narrow, but nothing transpiredto impair confidence or cast a shadow overtho outlook.' Skirmisher" says in his weekly review:"Tho nrincmal events in local stock circlesduring the week were the adoption of thoElectric and Manufacturing Company's re-organization plan and the declaration of theregular dividend by the Pleasant ValleyPassenger Bailway.

    "As is well known, the embarrassment ofthe first named interest, one of the most im-portant in Pittsburg or the country, seri-ously affected all lines of trade. To thestock markot, it was literally an 'Old Man ofthe Sea' acting as a foil to every forward im-pulse. It is clear, therefore, that theie-mov-

    of this incubus will have a stimulat-ing effect upon business by permitting otherand favorable conditions to exercise theirlegitimate office, which is to strengthen con-fidence in the soundness of the financialsituation, inspire hope of better things tocome, and point out to owners of securitiesthe necessity of keeping out of the marketuntil the time arrives for a reaction. For atime it w as feared that compulsory liquida-tion would make a serious impression uponvalues. It is now thought that this dangeris over. As a rule, stocks are in stronghands and will not be forced npon an un-willing maiket.

    "Tiie dividend of the Pleasant ValleyStreet Bailway gives an inadequate impres-sion of the profits of the road. The figurespla:e them at the rate of 6 per cent annu-ally, when they are really 8 or 9. It wasthought best to keep the dividend down tothe regular amount and augment the sur-plus, so as to maintain the company in aposition to carry out its various projects forimprovement. The Pleasant Valley, Inpoint of earnings is next to tho Citizens'Traction. Noncr but good words can bespoken of the entiio rapid transit system ofPittsburg. All of the roads are runningsmoothlv the Duquesne showing very de-cided improvement in this respeot. Bivalry,while still acute, is less aggressive, theadoption of adequate measures to preventaccidents has strengthened the confidenceof the public, and tiavel has Increased. Iamasstionglyasever of the opinion thatstreet railway stocks are a good purchaseat ruling prices In saying this, I look tothe future even more than to the present.The growth of the city should be kept inview in estimating the value of these securi-ties

    "In regard to the financial situation, thereis nothing especially new to be said. Whilethere has been some improvement in thePittsburg market, due to a better call forcommercial paper, denoting more activityingoneial trade, conditions bearing nponthe supply and distribution of money in

    practically unchanged. The outlook,however, is decidedly better. With Europedestitute of breadstuffs there is no danger offurther gold exports exoept in the ordinaryway of squaring balanoes, and they aro farmore likely to be in our favor than againstus. At some points the tendenoy is towardincreased firmness in Interest rates as ameans of discouraging outside loans pend-ingth- e

    marketing ol tho crops, whioh is sureto stimulate the demand tor commercialpaper. Tho situation, viewed from almostany standpoint, is gratifying. Good timeswill come, xneyaie coming. .Every factorthat enters into business is tending towardthis consummation."

    New York, July 18 The failure of theEnglish Bank of the Elver Platte was an-nounced in London this morning and causedmaterially lower prices for all kinds ofstocks there. Our market felt the effects ofthis decline, and while the opening priceshero were above the London equivalents,large fraotions wore knocked off most of theactive shares. The opportunity to sell themarket down was not to be neglected by thebears, however, and they joined with theforeign sellers in prossing the market down.The stocks which have an internationalmarket, in the main, suffered the most un-der the circumstances, but Burlington andLackawanna led tho downward movement,the bear pressure being specially heavy onthe latter on account of some supposedtrouble in the coal trade. Each of thesostocks lost 1 per cent, while tho rest of thelist declined only fractions if at all.

    The downward movement was checkedbefore the expiration of the first half hour,however, and while there was no dispositionto buy for the long account, the covering ofshorts helped prices up a little, and later,when the bank statement was Issued, show-ing material gains in cash and surplus re-serve, the buying became more pronouncedand the upward movement was accelerated.

    Prices in the last few minutes were broughtup to about the level of those of the opening,and the market closed firm though quiet atthe recovery. The final changes aTe insig-nificant in all cases, being generally thelosses made at the opening of business only.

    The trading in railroad bonds went downto tho smallest proportions again thetwo hours of business yielding sales of only$219,000, while the fluctuations were confinedto a corresponding narrow limit. No ten-dency of prices in either direction was to bedeteoted.

    Will Return Our Gold.John M. Oakley & Co.'s correspondents

    wired: "Waiting is the watchword andwatching Is the waiting word. This is thesituation summed up, or as a broker put itthe other day, 'Wo are full of hope, chuckfull of hope but when it comes to businessthere is none ' This apathy excites the ap-prehensions of the followers of the stockmarket and one of our esteemed brokerclients in writing us says: 'Is not the fear onthe other side that wo are drifting on to asilver basis the mam cause of our loss ofgold and the accumulation of silver by ourbanks? Will not we get securities in pay-ment of our breadstuffs instead ofgold? Arenot our crops overestimated and the meagre-ness-

    European crops exaggerated? Is notour spring wheat crop below last year mcondition, and the corn crop late? If we donot got back our gold, will we not havo hardtimes in money?'

    "These are ourfrlend'sappreheuslons.heldby others, probably tho majority of thesowho are interested m our financial affairs,and who consider them, but wo believe thatEurope will have to return to usourgoldand that they will of necessity use largelyour ccieals, that our crops will in all proba-bility average bettor and larger than foryears, and that this growing, prosperouscountry of ours, with all its aggressivenessand its unbounded resources, will beforelong assert its inherent strength and re-sources and the foreign capitalist willsurely come to a realising sense and keenappreciation of the opportunities hereafforded him and return his bullion for in-vestments. In the meantime we mayseoasomewhat lower range of prices. To day'smarket has been like many others gonebefore."

    Homo Influences Unchanged.Henry Clews & Co. furnish the following

    points to Investors- - "The Stock Exchangemoves along sluggishly, with Its dally salosof about 100 000 shares, ono day favoring thebulls and next the bears, but with no fixedtendency either one way or tho other. Onlyone thing remains fixed the predominantoonviction that stocks are intrinsicallyworth the price at which they aio now held.This estimate protects the market againstthe attacks of the room traders, but it doesnot elicit any outside buying. It may possi-bly prove to bo the bases of a buy-ing movement at some later stage, butat present its benefit to the mai-ket is rather negative than positive.

    Although the secrets of the diplomaticconferences of last week at London m-i- notbo divulged, yet Europe avill henceforth re-paid the Driebund as virtually backed, atleast under certain contingencies, by themoral and physical force of Great Butain.Tins is a ch utge of profound importance intho situation of European politics. It placesEussia and France at such an overwhelmingdisadvantage as to virtually bind over thoecountries to keep tho peace on penalty ofutter discomfiture. Such a result wouldbring direct advantages to this country.AH that is needed to give full effect to thobenefits of our abundant harvest is a restor-ation of confidence in the countries withwhich wo have commercial Intercourse. Itwould mean better foreign markets andbetter prices for our grain, as well us for allother exportable products.

    GRAIN MARKETS REVERSED.

    Wheat Now the Strong Point and Corn theWeak Prices Easier on Oats Provis-ions Advance and Then Go Back to theOpening Prices.

    CHICAGO Wheat was more active yand strong most of the session. For the firstfew minutes it seemed inolined to be weak,then wobbled a little, but Anally struck it3gait and sold up Jc, and held Arm most ofthe day. Corn held firm for a short timeand then flattened out. September closedJc lower than on Friday. Pork, lard andribs had an early advance and a subsequentdecline, leaving them about at yesterday'sclosing quotations.

    The very general, and places veryheavy, rains, together with steadier foreignmarkets and an active demand for exportreported from New York and other seaboardcitios, gave to the wheat market its strongertone. The demand for the near months wasbetter than it has ruled of late, more especi-ally for August and September. It was as-serted that probably 75 per cent of the re-ceipts to bo expected here for the next twomonths were already placed for shipment toEastern millers and foreign countries.

    The opening price for December wa3 86J66c, followed immediately by a drop toE6c. It stiffened up and reaohed 8oJo inabout an hour from the start, with a strongfeeling on the advance. It held up well, be-ing supported bv an active demand for cashwheat and a decided improiement in Julyand August, which were both in good re-quest in the pit. A sudden drop in the pneoof corn and an estimated receipt of 523 carsfor Jlonday weakened wheit somewhattoward the close and December sold off to86Vc: but the leported sales from New Yorkof 60 boat loads and the active Inquiry forcash wheat here steadied the market andthe close was firm at 6c for December and86Vc for July.

    Com was steady and seemed Inclined tofirmness early In the session, shorts takinghold very freely, and September opened IVicbetter than It closed last night, selling at 53

    53Jc, but the cash demand was not sourgent, and prices were easier, owing largelyto the fear that shipments made now by fakeand canal cannot reach the seaboard m timeto fill sales for July. Then came the estl-tima- te

    of525 cars for Monday, and there wasa seasoi of free selling, under whioh Sep-tember broke to 51c a deoline of ljc re-acted some, and at the close was about 52Wc.July sold at 69c, eased off to CTJc, whileAugust fell from S5o to BlJc.

    Oats ruled lower mainly on the increas-ing receipts of new oats, 12 cars having beenInspected July was traded in spar-ingly and sold from Sijicto 34c. August soldfrom 27Jc to 27JiC, and September from 27oto2bKe.

    Pork was nervously strong and higher, butlard and ribs did not share in the strengthin pork. Prices at the yards were 10c higher.This started shorts to covering, and Septem-ber pork sold from $11 20 to $11 30, fell to$11 i0, reacted to $11 35, then broke to $11 15,but at 12 o'clock was $11 15i!gll 20. Septem-ber lard steady at $6 556 60. while Septem-ber ribs sold at $6 70tf 75, and at 12 o'clockwas $6 70 bid.
