A Very Healthy Demand for Goods---Prompt Remit- tances. New York Banks Homor All De- mands for Legitimate Purposcs, No Formal Action Yet Taken Relative to Full Re- sumption. Cincinnati Banks Commence fo With- draw Their Loan Certifica.tes. Numerous Strikes Among the Philadel- phia Iron-Workers. A Decided Improvement in Internal Revenue Receipts, CHICAGO. INTERYIEWS WITIl DUSINESS-MEN, Now that the decidedly uneasy foeling which provailed in banking and business circles for a fevorish fortnight has subsided, the naturaily arising speculation is as to whother the offect of tho jar which the commercinl machinery of the Westorn motropolis and its environs, the West- orn Btates gonorally, sustained in the panic, is. atill felt. With a view to finding out whother the morchants of Ohicago, with thoir accustomed. buoysucy, had overcome the offects of they troublo which, although now Lardly montionod, was, & weck sinco, the ono absorbing topic af converantion, s TRIBUNE reporter was yosterduy detailed to makoe a vislt among the wholesale businoss-men of the city snd eliclt tholr opinions of the existing state of affairs, and views as to tho probable duration of tho effect of the pan- ic upon our commerce. Tho first warchouse vis- ited by tho roportor waa that of Messrs, Towle & Topor, wholosalo grocers. Here Lio mot MR, ROPER, who at once oxpressed his willingnoss to bo in- terviowed on the subject. The following con- ‘verdation ensued : Toporter—Mr. Roper, now that things huve quioted down gonerally and got runniog in tho old graoves, poople will want to know to what ox- tent, if any, tho trade of Chicago has suffeved and maybo still suffering from the lato un- ploasantness, Mr. Roper—Very natural indeed, and whut I know is at their sorvico. At prosent trade soems to bo steadily improving. This may ariso from the fact that the Exposition ie bringing peaplo from the surroundiug country to the city ; bat, from wlhatever source tho improvement comes, I can sy that the presont aspeot of nffairs is most satisfactory, and is much botter than what I an- ticipated ton days sgo. Last weok thore wero & couploor 8o of dull days, but I have scon it duller at the snme time of year in provious busi- 1CE8 B0RSODE. Roporter—Then you considor the presont stato of affairs quite satisfactory ? Mr. Ropor—Quito so. 1t veryseldom happons that all branches of industry are slmultsncously enjoying full swing of proeperity. Somelimes the agricultural distriots show a falling off ; at others, tho manufacturing; at othors, tho min- ing; but thetradeof Chicago is so oxtended that, when one of these fails somowhat as & gource of demand, tho others make up, This has been my oxperienco in other yeara, Reporter—Then, I supposge, tho demand from manufacturing sourcos just now s loasened ? Mr. Roper—It must bo; but the agrioultural districts aro well fixed. Thoy have good cropy, and must becomo buyers of staples to sufliciont oxtont to keop trade eatisfactory. Reportor—How was trade bofore the panio ? Mr. Roper—First-rate. Aud go it was during the panic. It was not felt by us until a weok sfter it struck Chicago. As compared with tho trade of the same timo last year, tho businoss three wooks ago was much ahend. Reporter—How is business now, as comparod with before tho trouble ? Mr. Roper—It has fallon off s littlo. Ttoporter—How are collections ? Mr. Ropor—Colloctions nro_getting hotter slowly, but I considor them much better than at one timo I feared thoy would provo, Reporter—As far as can roasounbly bo judged, what do leu think of the prospoots for this yoar's trade ? Mr. Itoper—Unless somothing happons to st things back, L thivk trade will continug good. Wiidover branches of industry may be atill hampered, agricultural Iabor is well paid, and a8 long as that is tho caso, the city must do bus- inose. If nliberal policy is pursued all round, all will b well, MR, SPRAGUE. Tho roportor noxt called upon the grocory firm of Spraguo, Waroer & Co, Hore he meb Mr. Bprague, and the following convorsation cusuad: Roportor—Aro the effoota of tho recont panio still felt in your lino of business ? Mr. Bpraguo—The volume of our trade s elightly diminished a8 compared with that boforo the criis, T'his was probubly caused by the onlling iu, during tho oxcitomont, by soveral grocory housos, of their agents, Tieporter—Did you call i your agents ? Mr. Spraguo—Wo did not, and"tho rosult fa that we are now doing, rulnz{vnl{. ‘more buslneus than those houses which did, 1'had faith that all was going to como out right, and tho rosult hins fully verified my anticipations, Reporter—IIow do you fiud the country mer- oliants bobiaving ? + Mr. Spraguo—Romittances aro coming in as woll a8 usual. Occasionally partics tako advan- tago of tho rocont condition of afuirs, but they &re tho excoption, and not the rule. ll(«p;mor—uow was business bofore the panic Mr, Bprague—Just beforo tho panio trade was Lioavier than tho yoar provious, aud the promiso thou was of a much heavior trade than was douo lat senson, Roportor—Do you think the Ixposition is Belping trado? ; Alr. Bprague—Home of the business wo ara now duing 18 duo to the show, We have sold goods to partics in the shop who wounld not probubly hiave purchusod otherwiso, Reporter—\What s tho presont prospect for your business ? Mr, Hprague—I look vory hopefully to the fu- ture, Htooits in the country are light, and, with tho amount of currenoy coming to them from salos of grain, the conntry morchauts must be- como heavy purchasors of city staples, They must Im{ grocerios, The interlor grover buyw livtle aud often; o that trouble hke that we —— havo passod through is not long folt by thom. After all, tho pauio seomed to nffeot only thoe largor institutions of the country, the banks and bankors. ‘Yho oredit of our morchauts did not suffor during tho trouble, Tioporter—TChen ¥0\I aro, quito satisfled with tho presont state of affaira and tho prospect ? Mr. Bpn\finn—l am more thean satisfied,—I am woll plonsed, MR. BANNARD, ‘Tho noxt houso vislted was also in the_whole- salo gracery lino, the establishmont of Franklin MoVeagh & Co, Horo Mr. Bannard, o momber of tho firm, knid he was rondy to supply any in- formatlon desired, rud the ru]hurlurln{’pum ) whe immedintely applied with tho cqually satlsfac- tory rosults. - Mr, Bannnrd cousforod that trada hiad got baclk just whero it would havo boon at tho present timo had no panic ocourred. Busi~ noss conld nnrlllf' bo botter thau it hns boen during tho past threo days, Ilo did not attribute this plonsant atato of affairs to tho Exposition, Ha considered it the natural courso of evonts, T'ho Jubilao bio thought did more for wholesnls businoss than tho Exposition, which was doing finml to tha rotail rathor than to the wholessle usinoss of tho city. Ho thought Chicnygo had novor bofore soen a8 good trado ne that shie was enjoying ot the commencomont of tho bank ponic. Buslness at tho prosent time ia quite ns good os ot tho emme timo lust year, and in about a weok will Dbo inuch bottor.

A walk among THE DOOT AND SIIOE MANUFAGTURERS showed that the genoral opinion of tho grocors with regard to the aspect of thinga coincides prote ty thoroughly with theira. An intorviow with the firm of O. 1I. Fargo & Co. shows how thoy look upon affairs, Roporter—How Is the boot and shoo trade pro- groesing ? Mr. Fargo—Wo nre very busy, which may partially bo due to the Exposition. All | elrcumataucos considored, thore is & yory hoalthy domand for goods.

This waa not the caso this year, Roportor—ITow do you fiud businoss as com- pared with that boing ono boford tho potio 5 Mr. Fargo—Peoplo who held off buying during tho panic scem to think all troublo is ovor, and aro buying froely. Collections are coming in es woll ag evor thoy did. One effcet of tho panic is that country morchants are buying more caro~ fully, Tho trado, nltogotbor, is in bottor shapo now than & yoar ago. A hoalthy focling of con- gorvatism i provailing which, if it Issts, will roudor tho panio & boon rathor than otherrwiso, Toportor—ilow was tho avte-panie trade na comparod with that of lagt year ? Mr. Fargo—Before tho paic trado was ahead of lnst year's, TRoportor—And now ? Mr. Fargo—Now it is no good as before the penio. Stocks gonerally are lighter than a year ngo. Colicctions just now ara fair, not what thioy woron. year inice, bus, as a wholo, the coun- try morchants aro not as much behiind as might haanticipated, becauso i1uuz before the panic col- loctions woro particulatly good. Roporlor—Whnt do you think of things gen- orally, at prosont ? Mr, Furgo—I am vory well eatisfled with tho position. Things are working iuto o vory satis- factory condition. An interview with a member of the boot and shoo manufacturing firm of C. M.

Tho offccts of the stringoncy are now being folt by tho industrial class of tho community. ‘Ihio cight-hour system i bcinfipmcflcnllycnrricd into offoct in many placos, and with the reduce tion in working-hands a reduction {n wayes keeps oven pace. Mauy firms, cspecially woolen and cotton manufacturers, have suspondod opora- tions, and tho result is that thousands of worl- men aro idle at the soason whon o straitening of their funds is felt with tho most severity. In consequence of an intimation having boen givon to tho workmon of TIHE SOUTIIWARK FOUNDRY, on Wednosday, that thero would be n reduction of 16 por cont on_laborora’ aud 20 por cont on mechanics' wages, the_wholo body of work- ingwmon in the foundry held a consultation at the 8t Philip's Litorary” Instituto.

In roply to the Commite too, Mr. Morris oxplained tho action of the firm. 1Ie snid that the iron businoss throughout the country was not in a condition to warrant a con- tinuanco' of tho old rates of pay, and that the roduction would be adhored to. Tho Committeo retirod and hold another meeting in tho boilor-room of the factory to- day, when they agreed to strike ; and the ~ 600 mon loft the tnuudrly in a body. 'The workmen claim that, 08 their lato work has been upon con- tracts for Brazil, Peru, and other foreign coun- tries naafTaotod by the lato financinl troublos, th argumonts of Morris ara without forco. Tho fooling of these workmen mn{ bo token as that of tho ontire working body in tho city.

THE IRON TRADE IN GENERAL, Tho Committeo, composed of intelligent men, woro of the opinion that einco tho wecret con- vention of foundry-owners, hold s fow weeks 8go, the employers had determined to make the panic a protoxt for a genoeral reduction of wages, and that Morris was choson as tho first to begin tho movemont.
