It appeared to be taken for granted r preferred. tlon men walt for the outcome and movement of crops. But more business s being done this year than In any previous July of which there are records. The payments through clearing houses have been 5.8 per cent larger than in 1892, the year of greatest prosperity heretofore, and for the month thus far 6.6 per cent larger than last year and §.4 per cent larger than in 15%2. But these records and the others have to be judged in the light of heavy declines in prices since 1892, so that the volume of business transacted is about 20 per cent larger than the volume of payment indicates. Considering that the purchases of nearly halt the people depend on the success of agriculture and that the prosperity of the entire trans- porting interest is matorlally affected by the #ize of the crops to be moved, it may be said that 18 the reason that the promise of general prosperity this year is unusually bright. The officlal report of iron production for the first half of 1888 shows an increase of over halt a million tons compared with any previous year and what is far more important the con- sumption in manufactures appears for the half to have exceeded the output. Estimating the exports for June, only five months having been offictally reported, the consumption has been 5,948,345 tons, against 5,909,701 produced, aver- aging 51,391 tons monthly againat 954,660 tons produced.” It is well to remember that in June, when production declined because of stoppage for repairs, the decrease in unsold stocks was 4216 tons weekly. The new orders received are surprisingly large for the season, covering 6000 tons at New York for rails and 10,000 taken at Chicago, and a_noteworthy demand for struc- tural forms at Philadelphia and increasing de- mand for bars, with enough to keep the plate mills busy for a long time; a larger demand for bars at Chicago, including one order for 5000 tons implement stuff, and an excellent struc- tural demand and the heaviest demand for plates ever known at Pittsburg. Sales of Bes- semer iron have been heavy, reaching 25,000 tons at Pittsburg, without change in prices. Wheat receipts for the month thus far have been 7,309,333 bushels, against 10,652,044 last year, but prices have declined 113 cents and farmers are holding back their wheat in the hope of higher prices. The exports for the week have been 1,307 815 bushels from Atlantic ports, flour included, against last year and from Pacific ports 126,117 bushels agalnst 429,291 last year, making for the month 8,533,193 bushels against' 7,342,467 last year. The sales of wool show a remarkable in- crease in large transactions for which no prices are named, four being quoted at Boston | covering 2,600,000 pounds, and the aggregate at the three chief markets has been 7,039,300 pounds for the week and for four weeks 19,91,- 200, of which 12,511,400 were domestic, Fallures for the week have been 225 in the United States, against 236 last year, and 26 in Canada against 28 last yea: BRADSTREET'S REVIEW. NEW YORK, July 2).—Bradstreet's to-mor- row will say: While as yet showing little actual effect upon distributive trade, there is evidence that the Improved prospects for peace, with probably wider markets for American products, have given a more hopetul tinge to the trade outlook, more particularly with the East. This is reflected in active preparations by shippers and coasting trade Interests to share in the expected widening of demand from the West Indies. As for some time past, how- ever, reports of solid business returns come malinly from the Western part of the country, and In the markets of that section are re- ported signs of the ground swell of fall de- mand. Signs of cumulative improvement come from the fron and steel industry more par- ticularly from west of the Alleghenies, where slight advances in prices accompanying a good volume of domestic and export business are reported. Expected activity in shipbuilding is reflected in the demand for plates at Eastern points. A rather better tone is found in the | anthracite coal trade, in which as a result of another one of those numerous ‘‘gentlemen’s | agreements”’ prices have been advanced at the | West from previously low cut rates. The situa- | in cereals is hardly as satisfactory as could be wished, cash prices being lower for the week in the face of probably record-break- ing small world's supplies on August 1, and | good exports from this country, while futures are less depressed, but exhibit tl pressure ori expected liberal supplies at home® and heavier crops abroad. | The sugar markets remain dull and stocks | of refined In the channels of distribution are reported small.. Raw sugar, however, remains featureless, perhaps awaiting a closer approxi- mation as to the effects of recent or imminent changes in territorial authority on the sugar trade of the world. Cereal exparts still continue of a satisfactory volume. Wheat shipments for the week (flour included) aggregate 2,271,872 bushels, as against 2,303,468 bushels last week, and compared with 2,342,021 bushels in the corresponding week of last year, 2,648,768 bushels in this week of 1896, | 1,480,917 Dushels in 1385 and 2,977,967 bushels in 1894, Business fallures in the United States remain at a normal low point, aggregating for the week 189, against 188 last week, and compared with 209 in this week a year ago, 204 in 159, 221 in 1895 and 221 {n’ 1894, Business failures in Canada for the week number 34, against 17 last week, 32 a year ago, 27 in 1896, 29 in 1895 and 31 in 1894, Bt,,,, pre that corn, like the belated sinner, could be PORTLAND'S BUSINESS. altimor saved at the last hour.
