FINANCIAL ‘There was more than usual activity in Gov- ernment bonds. Transactions were confined mainly to the 4 percents. The price in Chicago was 102(@108 bid, and 1033¢ asked. ° Refund- ing certificates were 102% bid. The bond mar- ket bas been strengthened by the news that the London bankers who bought $15,000,000 of the 4 per cents have sold them und are negotiating in New York for the purchase of another round lot. As before, the London dealers want a larger allotment than the New York Syndicate are Willing to supply, but it is probable a com- promise will be agreed on. The 6s of 1881 were 10734, the 53 10354, the 4348106. > Foreign exchange was very weak, and fature exchange was unsalable. There is nothing sur- prising in the decline in rates, as these ere still higher than usual at this time of year. In Chi- cago sterling grain-bills were 48314 for sixty-day bills and 48534 for sight; and French were 52196 for sixty-day bills and 519 for sight. The actual Chicago rates for sterling were 4859{ and 4873, @4S8{. in NewYork the actual rates were 4858272456 ana 488. The posted rates for ster- ling were 487@489. French bankers’ bilis were 5IS@dITIE. - ‘The vast accumutation of idle money in Lon- ‘don is acting on’ the- price of consols. The opening price was higher at 979-16, and there ‘was an advance of 3¢, to 97 11-16. Engilsh cap- Stalists are embarrassed with their riches.

Itdid not make much difference to the mar- kets, though it was reported that the threshing of wheat is delayed by showers in. the southern part of the State. i Estimates are made to the effect that fully 2,000,000 bu wheat are yet unfilled on the June deal, and only one day left in which to square up. There will probably be lots of litigation before the Arbitration Committee of the Board of Trade and the Director i About 300,000 bu (not 800,000, as reported) wheat has been received from Milwaukee up to date. About so much was owned by parties outside the combination in that city, Another cargo or two will prodably arrive Monday. “It is stated on good authority that the Mil- waukee Inspectors make a discrimination 1 1b to the bu against wheat that has obviously been cleaned. It must weigh 57 Ibs in order to pass as No. 2, whereas wheat au naturel is only re- quired to weigh 5$Ibs. This is as it should be. | ‘The market for June wheat advanced another: 2c Saturday, making the price $1.07. There ‘Were some rumors to the effect that the firure would be marked up to $1.08 at noon, but the rumor was'-not justified by thé facts. Some thought that the liberal offers made in New York the previous day, to sell at $1.03 for duly, had something to do with keeping down the quotation here, but the surmise was probably groundless. The longs took all the svot wheat Qo. 2) offered. them at $1.07, and were willing sellers at the same fiure-to allwho wanted to buy for June. ‘The process-of filling was rather slow, but occasionally a round block was pur- chased, making the aggregate of transactions a moderately large one. The taking of yes- sel-room for over * 300,000 bu was gen- erally . regarded as an {indication — that the parties controlling the deal have | ar- ranged to ship all the wheat ont by the middle .of next month,—as intimated in these columns afew days ago. This helped to sfrengthen the market for July; it advanced 3c per bu, Some parties believed to'be outside the combination seemed to think that the wheat now in nand ‘will be sold at good prices to consumers after all. They referred tothe reports that Great Britain has some three-quarters of ‘a million acy? Jess Jand sceded to wheat than last Year, and that the weather in England hss been un- favorable to the growth of that planted, while Frage is behind the average, and Spain reports achi&ge for the worse in her prospects fora wheat ‘harvest, ‘These conditions may bring 8 better European demand for our Wheat than even that of the cereal Year now closing, and our crop certainly does not promise any better than that of 1875, ex- cept in regard to the quality of the spring part of it. Either this belief, or the design to run a corner here in July, must be the reason why the wheat in the West has peen held back so long by the owners. Other markets were moderately active in the ageregate, with a more irregular feeling. Corn was firmgr, with a good shipping demand. Oats were stronger early, but ‘reacted on larger re- | ceipts. Rye was }¢c lower, barley inactive, and flour dull. Provisions «were active in changes, ‘With not much variation in prices. Lake freigbts were more active and a ‘shade firmer, at 2@23éc for wheat to Buffalo; 18(c for ‘corn to do, and Oc for corn to Oswego, Through to New York by lake and canal was quoted at 6%c for corn and 7<c for wheat, Through to Boston nominal at 1c on corn. Rail fretghts were steady at 20 per 100 Ibs on grain to New York, but little doing at those figures, Through rates on meats to Liverpool were anor at 40@42}4c per 100 Ibs and 563(c to An- WerD. ‘ Dry goods were quoted quiet and firm. -Cot- tons continue to advance, and prices of Woolens also show a hardening tendency. “In the boot and shoe market there wereno new deyelon- ments. Business 1s quiet, as is to be expected at this time of year, but the tone of the mar- ket is exceeningly firm, and an advance may be Jooked for a little further along.

So far during the summer sea- son there has really been little in the situation to warrant packers in cntting hogs with any freedom. Batthe fact is, there isa larce amount of capital invested in packing-houses here, and if allowed to remain idle there ia a certain loss, while there is anabundance of cheap moncy afloat seeking in- vestment, and rather numerous incentives offered packers to cnt hogs providing they can, by close figuring, save themselves o small return for their labor and investment. . But there are evi- dences that the supply of the raw material ie far from short, and the- result is that, with present |- stocks of product, sve are Hable to find round lots in tore at the beginning of the new season, when the reverse should bethe case. The available sup- ply of both the raw and manufactured material appears tobe scmething of an. unknown quantity, and as packers have cut hoga rater freely lately, the amount of product on hand is sufficient to in- sare consumers that they can bay the property- cheap. ‘The manofacture continues quite general. Some mess pork is being steadily mannfactured, — about 500 bris per day, —to meet current consump- tion.
