Globe-Democrat: The chances are that the moon will be as well known to the inhabitants of the civilized world as the intevior of Africa is at the present time. The telescope manufactured by order of the late millionaire Lick for the university known by his name in California has enjoyed the distinction of being the largest and strongest in the world; but it is likely to undergo a co pagative eclipse. Mr, Abram Clark, who made it, hus undertaken the task of making oue yet larger and more pow- erful. Should he succoed, as he is per- foctly confident that he will, valuable additions may be expected to be made to our knowledge of the worlds by which we are surrounded. In a recent talk on the subject. Mr. Clark disclosed some faots 'y to genofal belief in regard to astronomy. It has been popu- larly supposed that we had reached the maximum of effcetive teloscopss. The big oncs, the leading astronomers told us, disclose little of the heavens’ wonders. And they pointed out that the most important discoveries of the present centuries had been made by telescopes of & medium s Hence deduction that it was useless to hother with larger lenses. Such a theory, of course, gavo us little of practical valuc to hope for from astronomy. With the telescopes now in use we could expect to dotermine more aceurately the dis- tance from the earth to the sun, or to lay bare more stars. But in discoveries of this kind the great mass of humanity uld scarcely be expected to take any very great interest. It was the verdict of most of the professionals that the Lick telescope would be a frilure, sofar as adding anything to practical knowl- edge of the heanvenly spheres was con- cernod; but in this, as in many other instances, they were mistaken, [t has alrcady been "demonstrated that, prop- erly constructed and located, a big-tele- scope is more effective than ouv of r size. It has been showngin that there is practically no to. - the wer ol a -teld scope,and that it a sufficiently pow- erful one can be made we -can bring most of the planets near enongh to ex- amine their every nook and corner. The lens of the new instrument for the university at Los Angeles is to. be forty inches in diameter, and Mr. Clark claims that he is able to make one five faet in diumeter—one which will bring the moon within a few thousand feet of the earth. It is iimrlynqueniou of time and money—mainly money—as a telescope with a five foot lens, properly mounted, would cost $1,000,000. Mr. Clark’s position is true, and there is every reason to believe that it is,astron- omy, a science which has been prac- tically at a stand for years, will take giant strides. There will be practically no limit to the discoveries it can make, and there should come from it some ractical benefits, Each year we will know more of the heavens, and of all sciences, astronomy will be changad from the slowest to the most progres- sive, ——— Harlem Bridge. Chicage Tribune: There have been two notable bridges in the political hist- ory of the state of New Yur&!—flrst.Cnyv uga and then Harlem bridge. When the anti-musonic excitement broke out in 1826 the couunties west of ‘Cayuga bridge were all carried awny by it. Later on when that ephemeral ‘party died oit, ‘all these counties beeame strongly whig, and formed what the democrats then called ‘‘the infected @iswiet,” Sosolid were they that the whigs never gave up the fight, no mat- ter what the majorities against them in the eastorn and northeastern counties might be, till they had'the returns from west of Cayugn bridge, meaning there- by the dozen odd counties west of Au- burn, This section becama as firmly re- republicanusit had boen whig, and after the passnge of the Kansns-Nebraska bill was reinforced by conntivs like 8t. Law- rence and Essex, whieh, though tiac- tured with free soilfsm, had gonerally iyen heavy democratic mujorities. The democratic strength, on ‘the otheyr hand, began inereasing und concentrat- ing around the waters of New York Bay, where the Kuropeans were dumped. The large foreigh vote,which Chancellor Kent hand pofuted out over half a century ago might in time coll- trol even national elections, was all theirs, and was relied on by them to make good the immense Amorican vote against them'in the rural districts. So Harlem bridge has come to be the point where the majorities of the two parties lock horns and strive'for the mastery, and Cayuga bridge is a mere reminis- cenco, Now it is praotically the coun- tics of New York, Kiugs, Queens, and Richmond yorsus the rest of the state, or the FKuropean colony versus the American population north of it. -~ In Chicago, A.

Corn Rather Dull—Oats Fairly Active and Firm -But Little Trading in fons—Cattie Steady —Hogs Slow. CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET. CiticaGo, Nov. 10.=[Special Telegram to Tur Bee.]—There 1s a very strong party in wheat working for a decline. It is au ag gressive party and its attitude has caused the unloading of considerable lines of “long” property which is certainly not an eloment of strength, The bear party may be said to include Jones, Kenaett, McCormack, zer, Ream, Bloom, Lynn, Reach, Lindbloom, Cu- dahy, Dunn and a diove of people aided by the tacit moral support of many of the larger commission housés which arc favoring a break on the thebry that it would put the market on a healthjer basis and induce now business. The lodal party has a strong sup- port in Pittsburg_afid some of the larger millers of the Hokthwest who are bears solely for the geason that they are desirous of getiing futuro supplics of wheat on cheap a basig. s possible. They ave loaded with high priced wheat and feel the necessity.of averaging dowi their raw materinl. New York ex- porters are to a nianidesirousof lower prices. In their assaults upon the market the bears have been obliged to put out large lines of wheat, and the cinscquence has been the creation of a danizerously large short inter- est. Should the visible decrease Monday, as is expected, insteitd- of incrrase, the bull lpaders may be' fA’ a posi “the i yhe week. 1t was the fegr of something of this sort that caused the market, to react strongly toward the close to-day, after a break of nearly 2 per cent from the opening rauge. Initial auotations were #1.15¢ for Decom- ber and $1.17 for May. The market broke off sharply to $1.15% for May, the snrinkage occurring right after the opening, From that point the market reached to $1,15) (@L1.18, settled back 1{@jc, but clung largely 40 $L.16 for a long time. _Then it took a-bhck track, but stopped -suddenly at $1.1515, ad- vanced_slowly to $1,15)¢@1.15% and than climbed rapidly to $1.16%, from which altitude it worked $L15% before 1 o'cloc De- cember averaged 1@11gc below May and was traded in sparingly. -Last weakness and last rices were not far removed from the inside. ho general movement of whoat is gotting light. At very few points do the receipts reatly exceed local milling and shipping re- Huiromouts, Tho majority of northwosteen dispatches emanate from’ bearish quarters and predict a largely increased move- ment mext week, consequeut up- on fre and dry weather. This swollon movement is about as uncertain a auantaty, however, as the export demand. We hear that it is certainly *‘going to" spring up in the immediate future. It has thus far been like the Irishman’s flea, which is never there when you try to put your hand onit. As an offset toadvices of {mpending freer farmers’ deliveries and rail movemedat from first hanas, dispatohes were received to tho effect,that elevators in the Jim river val- Tey are shutting up because there is no grain left to put.into them. Minneapolis-too wired that the sale of. a round lot of 10,000 barrels or over of flour had been made there to-day for exportation to Scotland. Old . world markets are simply steady and firm. The announcement sent out this morning that the government was going to issue a November crop report on wheat gave traders something to talk about, But the report proved to be un- founded. The government sends out No- vember bulletins, but it varely mentions wheat, and the telegraph companies were informod that the custom will not be de- parted from this year. Trading was quite spirited most of the scssion to-day, though it was largely local. The bear party was aggressive, Closing prices record an advan- tige for the bears. They mark a decline of 115@!3{c on the day, The tone of the mar- iet is that of extréme nervousness and the popular inclination is in the direction of still lowoer prices, One large firm 18 advising its country oustomers that'this is u “good mar- ket to sell wheat on if you have the wheat.” The receipts of corn were fifty-five cars less than yesterday's estimates, and the wenther was again wet-and unfavorable, too much No, 2 corn appedring on the market this year.

Commercial Bulletin: In a strong and convincing argument in favor of increased hanking capital and facilities as essential to the development of Mex- ico, the Financier of that country points out the intimate connection between the extension of banking and the advan ‘ment in general welfare and commercial rosperity in the Central and South American statés. This is a comparison to which attention may well be invited, and from which the United States no less' than Mexico, may learn & gimely lesson. The development of ban ing and the inerease in its fa- cilities have kept pace with the advancement of civilization and ¢ommereial enterprise throughout the western world, and banking capital has proved itself the most potent of Fk\necrs and civilizers and the very ife-blood of useful enterprise and great undertakings. Progress in all itsforins has been greatestin those countries in which banking facilities have been the most perfect and most extensive, and periods of industrial and commercial advancewment have been periods of growth in banking operations. In the United States during the past forty yenrs the increase of - banking facilities has been surpassed only by the growth of railroads, and has been more rapid than the increase in wealth, stewm-power, manufacturers, commerce, agrioulture or population. Realizing, as we must, the important part which the development of banking has played in the great work of subduing a con- tinent and in the development of our vast resources, it is impossible to view with complaisance any unnecessary ob- stacle to the continued increase of bank- ing at a rate of progress proportionate to the growth of 'population and the ad- vancement of the great work of indus- trial conquest and material develop- ment to which it is the handmaid. It'is uo longer true of the United States that banking capital is keeping pace with national growth in other branches. Our laws have arbitrarily _checlced the development of the national banking system after it had become so popular that state and privete banksare checked in growth by the public pref- erence for the nutional system. Until the present year the increase in bank- ing copitul had gone hand in hand with the increase 1in popu- lation and material development. It has unow been needlessly and un- wisely compelled to fall behind when its adyancement is most necessary., The growth of banking during the current yewr has been manifestly inadequate aud out of proportion to the growth of the agencies which it serves. Whether this obstacle of national progress is to be removed rests with congress. Itis in the power of that body to facilitate the extonsion of the n nal banking system: and if the arbitrary, itlogichl and indefensible ro- strictions now preventing growth are s0 modified as to permit it, new banks will spring up as rapidly as during any prior period, and will be scattered throughout the length and breadth of the land, and minister to the needs of trade and supply the means of progress from the Atlantic to the Pacific and from the Cavadian border to the Rio Grande, - ‘Wholesale Grocery Houses. Chicago News: The wholesale grocery houses in Chicago are not behind the other great business enterprises of tho city. The lines of railway carry their consignments of goods to the Pacific slope and to the Gulf of Mexico. Aside from the foreign trade which New York City can command, its houses in this line are not superior to those of Chi- cago. Thereare in the city about two dozen wholesale groceries, three of them being very extensive. Within the last fiftcen years twenty-two enter- prises of this kind have either failéa or ll:n’fl closed out their business to avoid financial embarrassment, $We are selling goods on’ a smaller margiu than ever before,” suid o mem- bevofone of the largest firms in the city. It has now come a point where a house canuot do business uuldss itis able to own its own stock. discount its paper, and control a trade that can owe 31,000,000 and still be carrvied. A man came to me the other day and said he had $100,000. He had baen earrying on a suecessful business in the country and thought he would like to establish him- self in Chicago. When he told me how much money he had I immediately ad- vised him to find two other men who could command a like mmount each, and then he might do a small busines: He replied that if he had $300,000 he would retive. Now, although that man had spent Lis life in business he had no con- ception of the veolume of trade in a large stove. There no living chance for a_man of moderate meuans to enguge in the wholesale grocery business in Chicago. The basis of profit is 8o very small that he must sell an immense amount of goods to pay his ex- penses. In order to sell goods he must have an established trade and this is not gained in a short time. To prove that all ines are now sold as close as it is possible to handle goods, a merchant comes here and says that in the matter ot teas he will deal with an_ ekclusive house. We tell him that if he brings samples of the goods sold in any exclusive house in the city we wil undersell in that line and we do it. The secret of this lies in the fact that ten is but a single arficle of trade and we buy in large quantities. The profits of our tea department pay but a small portion of the whole expénse of running the business, and therefore wa can sell cheaper than an exclusive hoase. Regarding the comparison of the wholesale houses of Chicago with those in other large cities we do not come up to New York. There the merchants have a forcign trade that makes a com- plete department. Vessels come into the port carrying the produce of forcign countries. Their return cargo is made up largely from the grocery houses of ity. . We can never get a line of o thit equals the foreign and domestic trade combi of the New Yorl house If this foreign custom jis taken out of the volume of business we carry on a morve extensive trade in Chicago. The ha changes in the business t ten years, and the transactions of the old times were simply primary The railroads have made it possible to do a _’Ixu'g'e wholesale business in Chi- cago. - oLt Lum Williams®' Great Feat.
