One effect of this storm must bo to diminish still further country travel and ibe shipments of country produce, and to make it necessary for the Chicago banks te annke still further advances to city merchants disap- pointed in collections, and to country banks that hays to carry customers who are feoding stock. The sur. Plus of loanable funds will not increase materially during this state of affairs, Rates of discount at the banks were 7410 per cent. On tho streots there was littie business done, Dates ro 7@18 por cent, New York exchange was weak, and offered af par ‘between banks for §1,000, ‘The clearings wero $2,600,000, RUSINESS CHANGE. ‘The creditors of the frm of Allen, Mackey & Cov. dealers in carpeta, are about to sell {ta stock, and re (ire it from business, Who will succeed them fa not yetdeclded, Field & Leftor hava made an offer for thetr stock at the rate of 60 cents on the dollar, ‘The creditors of Allen, Mackcy & Co, were disposed to ao- tent this proposition, but Mr, DB, P. Hutchinson subsequently offered 62}¢ conts, which wil! probably betaken. An taventory is boing mado of tho stock, and it will probably be marked at about $176,000, The eraditors will take tho cath pad for the stock and ro- leano Allen, Mackoy & Co, and Potter Palmer from alt Yabllity to them, Potter Palmer takes In acttlomont of hin claims against his parinors tho wnsottlod erollts ofthe fra, Bir, Hutchinson intends to install. bis son-in-law, Mr. F, A.

Tho National Danka do not make anything from {his loss of their notes, ‘When they retire their notes, thoy forward green- backs tothe Treasury Departinent, and the notes, as they are gathered up, are pad from this fund, If any Hotes fail to bo presented, the corresponding green- backs deposited for their redemption romrin in tho bande of the Government, ns there is no proviston for Aispoaing of thom in any other way. THE VINANCES OF THE CENTENNIAL, ‘The Philadelphia Ledger makes this calculation of the atlendanco neceasary to psy the exponses of the Centennial: If tho Centennial Exbibition costs $7,500,000, the amount claimed to complete it, in order simply to reallzo this wuin St will be necessary for 15,000,000 Poop’s to visit tt onco, at the price of ndmlswton, 600; and, a8 the thine is confined to 183 days (froin Bay 10 to Nov, 10, deducting Sundays, on which it will be clon), it will require the daily attendance of over 94,300 people, From these fgurew tho resident citizen may form nomo ides of the crowd und busuo in our ay during the six mouths succecding the 10th of DUNCAN, BNCRMAN & CoO.
