8 FINANCIML AND COMMERG A Week’s Bull Market on the Stock Exchange. The Situation Viewed from the Standpoint of the Produce Markets. The Industrial Activity of Forty Millions of People. WALL Street, SuNDayY, Sept. 27, x31} ‘The week which closed on Saturday night was am eventiul one. For the first time since the panic @f 1873—twelve months ago—has the street wit- peased @ “bull” market lasting through an enure mx days’ operations, and leaving off with the Promise of continuance. That such should be the case now after such @ lengthened interval of un- easiness, distrust and dulness, has in Ht 9 signif- cance greater than apparent results. The HERALD 4m its daily mission as a leading journal, “holding tme mirror up to nature,” has reflected from time vo time the causes which lead us by & mere process ©f deduction to the position the market presents to-day. We have bad occasion to speak frequently @f the sveady, silent work which was going for- ward strengthening the recuperative forces of the country and inducing iresh enterprise. We have peinced out she fact that 40,000,000 people could mot remain idle all their lives, and that 4t would require more than one panic such as that of last year to break the spirit ana repress the energy of industrious, striving communities that @ot the surface of this favored land. We simply had faith, And having held it not asa prejudice put as a conviction, we are not surprised at finding it justified, Thia recovery, too, has been of that jow conservative growth that gives assurance of Ms continuance. We are NOT ON THE EVE OF A NEW SPECULATION, ‘This may be accepted as neither prophecy nor caution, but simply tact. The retarded growth of the country is reasserting its existence, and busi- Bess is reviving because consumption demands further supply. The starting point of this revival has in it everything of encouragement. Money is abundant. This is one feature, but as we have had occasion before to qnote a shrewd comment tor, ‘Money is like manure, piled up in heaps it atinks, but distributed over a large extent of territory it fructifies and does good.” This distribution we are promised by the necessities of moving the crops, and, although that movement is somewhat retarded by the biind wilfulness of ‘he farmers in holding back, the latest reports give confidence in regard to the ultimate result. & DoW appears that THE RUROPEAN YIELD has been largely exaggerated. A despatch from Odessa, under date of August 24, to the Antwerp Precurseur says:—‘‘The drought, which has con- tinued Dow for over six weeks, has completely de- astroyed the Indian corn crop, and the small lots ‘mow offered for sale are held at enormous figures. | The export of this grain has completely ceased.” Further inquiry on this head gives the following saformation :— The firm of pacencleny Estrenne, of Marseilles, fm thelr usual review of the crops, which 1s con- sidered an at in France, a8 well as in Ger- | maby and England, says:—‘‘The wheat crop of | France has been very good in 46 departments, | good 1D 37, fair in 4 and rather poor in 1 depart | ment. The rye crop was very good in 1 depart- ment, good 10 18, fair tu 21, middiing in 18 and bad | ‘aT departments. The barley crop was very good in 2 departments, good in 24, lair in 24 and oad in Sdepartments. Oats turned out very good in 3 departments, good in 14, !air in 15, middling in 17, rather fair im31 apd bad in 3 departments. Tne prospects for Indian corn are very fine in 5 depart- menis, good in 26, fair in 4, middling tu 2and pad im 1 department. As rye, barley, oats and Indian orn gre not cultivated in ail departments, the Banver of departments mentioned in connection # hose grains 1s ier than those mentioned 4m connection with eae Advices from Russia, furnished to the Vienna Neue Freie of Angust 26, state:— In the government of Kaluga the winter crop Jeoks satisfactor, In the government of Iwer ‘the winter cro uffered by she cold and could not recover. poor crop is expected. The government of Kostroma is @ little better of, though the crop is by no means satisfactory. In the western governments of Lithuania, Pskof and Monuey the crop looks barely fair, with the excep- tion of three districta, where a good crop 1s looked fer. In the government of Witepsk the hopes for ‘a good crop bad been given up last spring, Things JOok betier in the adjacent government of Smo- Jensk, where the Winter crop was damaged, but the summer crop makes up for the deficiency. From the Baltic provinces the reports are quite un- promising. In Livonia the summer crop has Sugered by the coid, and the winter crop, with perbaps the districts of Dorpat and Walk, do not ‘promise much. In Esthonia but a middiing fair erop is expected, while in Couriand a very bad crop, and even a total iailure is looked for. From Poland the news 1s aiso by no means good. In the districts of Piock, Lubiia, Kalisz, Siedlec and Piotrkow the frost nas nearly killed the entire crop, while in Lomsba @ good harvest and around Warsaw a satisfactory one are not impossibie. ‘The winter crops were retarded by the cold ana the summer crop could only ve planted at a ver; late date. In the northern part o/ Russia the coli has injured the crops in the governments of Viatka, Olonetz, Vologda, Perm and Novgorod, The crop will therefore be but middling, if not bad, except, perhaps, in Perm, where the weather was somewhat milder. From the Vaucasos re- ports are to hand stating that in the governments @f Stavropol and TereK @ good crop 1s looked for, we jor the Kuban country the opinions are di- vided. Official reports speak of a rich crop, while private advices state that there is no hope for @ nod crop. In Georgia the crop suffered from %, 1D Imgrelia and imeritia irom the rains. In the country of Tillis the summer crop has peen completely burned up by tire san, and in the vicinity of Poti, on the shores of the Black Sea, it was damaged in May by the heavy rains, The Augsburg Allgemeine Zeitung states that, “py an imperial decree (August 24), the export of | grain from Albainasa, Turkey, has been interdicted op account of the bad crop.” Later advices add that the reports of the Austrian Department corresponding to our Agri- | cultural Bureau, bave largely exaggerated the prospects of the crop in Hungary, and that in- | stead of being above an average it will tall largely | short, These concurrent advices, coming from so Many pointa, give us the assurance that, in | spite of our errors, we still and will bave a market NEW YORK HERALD, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 1874.—TRIPLE SHEET. try, although Involved in the latter, as the re- sumption of specie poyments. It is even more dif- Neult to deal with; out, like everything eine that is inevitable, it must be met and conquered. We Will have DO thorough revival until both these Problems are disposed of, We may have over dark days in the necessity of dealing with them, but, a# a recent writer has sharply put it, “There is such & force and vitality in our indus trial mechanism that it is able to recover Very swiltly. Like some forms of organ'e life, our economic system, when weak members are lopped off, quickly puts forth newer and stronger mem- bers to take their piace.

The report of the Investigating Committee of the Pennsytvania Railroad Company hes lately up- peared in a pamphlet of nearly 250 pages, and is, upon the whole, s pretty satisfactory document. Tne committee does not hesitate to condemn some of the contracts and engagements made by the di- rectors o/ the Pennsylvania road, particularly those for connections south of Baltimore, and the values set upon the stock and bonds vf various com- panies held by the Pennsylvania are also in many cases heavily scaled down, but the conclusions of the report are favorable to the general soundness of the Pennsylvania road and to the value of its stock. Almost every week now brings the intelii- gence of the sale of one or more roads in fore- closure, and with these sales and the reorganiza- tion of some roads, and the adjustment of the affairs of others by the acceptance of their funding propositions, it is found that railroad finances are graduaily getting into better sbape. Itis now a year since the panic (this had been said before), which proved so disastrous to railroad investments | }>c. of every kind swept over the country. But rail- road securities are fast regaining their former popularity, the present month showing this in a | more marked degree than any of its predecessors. GOVERNMENTS were without new features and were somewhat restricted in the dealings, although some few sales occurred in large blocks, Much interest 1s felt in the progress of the funding movement on the other side, although but litue can be learued. STATE BONDS are largely neglected, the market lor Southern securities being diminished by the confusion pre- vailing in so many of the Southern States, while tne bonds of the Northern States are mostly heki on investment account.

This is the Keynote of our whole Anancial si:uation—the corner stone of our entire | industrial economic structure. We are producers. | The world is our customer, Tle numerous reports of | extravagant European crops that might crowd us from a market have been, during the past month of | @ebatable speculation, the one weak point in the | front of rehabilitation. It does not seem to stand | the test of inquiry, and, although caution Is yet | tue true word in aii departments of trade, there w still a Jarger confidence in the knowledge that WE HAVE SOMETHING TO SELL and know a peopie who, if they do not want to Bow, will want to buy. The above is agtrictly Mnancial view of the sit- ‘mation, and, to suow how closely related are cause | and effect, we reproduce the following paragraph from a commercial and financial journal, giving | the week's situation from the standpoint of the Produce Exchange :— Good weather and a general feeting that busi- ness matters are in a sound position have con- uributed to @ more active trade in merchandise during the past week. So moch uncertainty exists respecting the probable demand and aup- ply of domestic producta, and such a wide differ- ence prevails between current prices and tose Fuling one or two years ago at the beginning of crop years, that commission houses a8 weil dealers and operators fee! uncertain of their pol tion, and this fact has imparted a feverisu tone to those branches of business, Still there is some IMprovement in this respect, a steadier aad more confident feeling having developed as the situa jee as regards each staple is more clearly under- THE DRY GOODS MARKETS refiect, although as yet only in a slight degree, the improved outlook in the export trade. Buyers, however, are still reticent and purchase only for current needs, although these are already be- ginning to show increased magnitude. There ap- pears to be an over supply of cotton goods in the market, which has worked such @ depreciation that the mill owners East bave recently taken ac- on on the subject and decided to ran only on half or three-quarters time until the surplus is ab- sorbed, This brings as face to iace with the great probiem of labor remuneration—a problem as im- j bares J il quire: deposite.. 69,210,200. 69,115,200 = Exc's of ree fog avy legal Te- quiremen 25,546,700 25,505,100 Dec.. 41,600 FOREIGN BXCHANGR was quiet and somewhat unsettled.
