Business continues larger than a year ago.

New Yok, Sept. 23.—Bradstreet's report of the state of trade for the week says: De- oreased recelpts of wheat at the northwest, expectations of a further roduction and firmer Liverpool cables, served to stiffe wheat prices, and quotations are up to 1 cents, Indian corn stocks fell away last weelk and prices arg fractionally migher. Ex- ports of wheat from all United States ports this week (flour included) equal 3,711,000 bushels against 3,384,000 bushols last week, Less wheat, but’ more flour was shipped abrond this week than last—and 1,000,000 bushels less this week than in tbe like week in 1801, Week before last exports nggreguted 000 bushols, and the weelk before that 3,241.000 bushels, Available stocks of whear this week in- creased not, 4,103,000 bushets, and in the woel before 4,331,000 bushels, showing how much more rapidly stocks are accumulating than they are going avroad and into con- sumption, Total pank clearings for the week are spe- olally telographed to Bradstreevs from seventy cities, the largest number ever re- ported. The total for fifty-nine cities out of the sixty-three w the United States is $1,185,000,000 or 6.4 per cent more than last ‘week, but 11 per cent less than in the like week a year ago. ‘I'be total number of failures in business for the week s 174; one year ago for a like period the total was 250, More than four- ifths are those of concerns with a capital of 000 or less eading southern trade centers show an Irregular movement, At Charleston a fort- night's rain has checked trade, and at New Orleans merchants generally frankly admit that the movement of stupio merchandise this season has been unsatisiactory, in part owing to tho lateness of the crop. ~Rice ar- rlyals thero aro free, but there is so large a porcentago of damp goods that it has demor- allzea that market, Fair collections and moderats activity ure reported from Mem- his and & volumie of business 801 (improving sinse the chol out), 1s noted ut Nashvilie, At Atlauta there ‘s a good demand for cur- rency to move cotion, and jobbing 1s freely wotive; whilo at Birmingham, Ala., trade is fair and the outlook is favorable, collections are l;nprovud aud pig iron is 1 better de- mand, WALL STREET FOR A WEEK, Speculation No Longer Influenced by Ex- aggerated Cholora Scare New Youk, Sopt. 23.—Bradstreet's Wall streot review for the week says: The specu- lative market has regained its equilibrium and is no longer influenced by exaggerated fears of a cbolera epidemic. The subsidence of the disturbance is accompanied by the ex- bibition of a further moderate improvement in values. It is t be noted, however, that tho short interest created during the aecline bas itself supplied most of the buying power on which the appreciation is based. Othor factors have, it is true, assisted the growth of a bullish sentiment and action. The easier Loao of the loan warket nod decreas- fng prospect of close conditious 1o money has ® duo influence, though the fall of exchaugo rates Lo figures which absolutely prohibit & further drain of gold. was even more effeo- tive. The fact that large offerings of bills of exchange against European purchases of grain and cotton futures are cowing up on the market, and are respousible for the de- cliue of exchange, is regarded as siguiticant, Tt 1s ovon argued that the movewent in this conneotion may, if continued, resuit in & reversal of the process which had created so muoh alarm and bring gold from Europe to his country. Under these circumstances, not only do holders of securi: ties manifest & strong disinelina- tion to sell at present prices, but large speculative intertsts have resumed the bullish position on the market which they temporarily abandoned in consequence of the cholera secare, It does not seem that thore is as yet any marked disposition to re- sume the speculative manipulation on which the market for some tima rested. The ab- sonce of house support would negative suc- cess in sach overations. London, too, mani- fests ontire indifference and takes no part in the proceedings here. Tno market, in fact, has been altogetner & professional one and it is subject to the limitations which such conditions involve, CLEARING HOUSE STATEMENTS, Omahna Shows a Gratifying Incrense—Re- ports from Other Cltles, New Yonx, Sent. 23, —The following table compiled by Bradstreet's show bank clear- ings for the week ending September 1809, aud the percentago of increase and decrease a8 comparea with the corresponding week of 1801 ciries Rew Vork Boston Chiengo Philadelphis, St Louls.

Y., Sept. 23, 1302, —Owing to its commanding situation as ‘a railroad center, the city ot Buffalo has of late years become very popular as a convention city for meet- ings of national bodies. But neverm her history has she made proparations to receive u gatlicring of business men, the 1mportance of whose visit will have so wide and benefic- 1al an effect upov ber great destiny as will the meeting of the National Real Estate As- sociation of America, whose second annual congress will ve held'in Buflaio on October 4 to 7 lnclusive. Iivery busiuess or professional man in the United” States, who Is interested in real es- wteas an_owner, agent or dealer, will be enefited by the ‘work: that will be doue in Buffaio by this association, and 1tis, therefore, receiving very wide attention. Among the objects which’ this association hopes 1o ac- comolish, is the establishment of uniform laws toroughoutthe states for the transfer 'y of real property: for better and and more secure lezal forms to be used in the transaction of the real estate business, aud for the establishment of a con- tral budy of reference ana statistics. The association discourages wild speculation and Hetitious **booms” and encourages and aims to direct, as far as possible, the investment of money in sectious promising the greatest and safest returns, The associution is purely national in its character and is not controlled by real estate men of any section, and the usefulness of such a body cannot e overestimated. The program of the congress at Buffalo will include sn address by Hon. Chauncey M. Depew upon *Rapia Transit and Su- burban Real [state,” and addresses of equal importance and intorest will be made by ex- Giovernor Hubbard of Texas and ilon. J. Fred k C, Hou, I. C, Board of Dexter, Elmira, N. Y. ; Bowditen, Boston, Mass., ana Moore, president of the National Fire Underwriters, Delegates to this congress will find the city of Buffalo one of the most magnificent cxamples of material prosperity and Ame can civilization, They will find a city with #00.000 iuhabitants and they will learn that oue-halfl of the inhabitants of Buffalo have been added to her popuiation during the past tweive years.

They will find a water supply, which furnisues an uulimited quantity of pure water from Luke Erie to every iubub- itant. Buffalo is now the largest coal distributing Enlnlm the, world; the largest sheep war- et the largest fresh fish market, and with her suburban port of Tonawanda, the largest lumber market in the world. She is the secoud largest grain, cattle and live stock market in the world, and the value of her lake aud rail commerce places ber as the sixth lurgest commercial city on tue globe. The five cities which surpass her are Lon- don, Liverpool, New York, Hamburg and Chicago. Probubly of more general national interest 10 this real estate congress will be tho ex- teusion to Buffalo of congratulatious by every visitor upon Buffalo's acquisition of ara Falls' water power by the mou- strous tunnel just completed at an expense of maoy millions of dollars of Wall street capital, which will supply to Buffalo 120,000 horse power, for all manufacturing purposas and for electric light, at a cost of one-fovrth of steam-made power and one-half the cost of the cheapest water power elsowbere in the world, The Hon. Peter A. Porter, who Was oue of the projectors of this tunvel, will address the cougress upon the inception, history and completion of the greatest of thé world’s engineering feats, and the entire congress will agjourn 10 Niagara Falls to visit the tunnel. e — Too Much of & Risk. 1t 18 not unusual for colds contracted in the fall to havg ou all winter.
