Money and the Crops. A well-known New York authority says of he money markets and crops: “An important feature which is mot eatis- factory is the occasional declines in exports, which we have repeatedly referred to. The Gecline in expc:ts of manufactures is especially regrettable, and seems likely to continue; for Europe is not in a condition to buy anything with freedom except food products which short crops abroad compel her to purchase. Inter- mational trade relations are anything but sat- §sfactory at the moment, the constant threats ©f tariff wars and retaliation being simply an expres: of economic stress. This is the Gark side of the picture contrasted with our own extraordinary prosperity, which still con- Tinues with wonderful momentum, but which has been too rapidly discounted in the stock market. The monetary situation at the moment is unfavorable, high rates seeming probable until after preparations for January disbursements, whi w be exceedingly heavy. Bahk re- serves are at & very low ebb and some sharp contraction of loans will be necessary to main- Zain the surplus above legal requirements. Gold exports at this time are unusual and of course exert an unfavorable effect, being additional proof of the changes going on in our interna- tional trade and financial relations. As large sums have been withdrawn for underwriting purposes the only relief that can come to the New York market is through forced liquida- tion and the return of funds from the interior, where money has been relatively cheaper and more abundant than here. “The effect of the corn crop damage will woon be more visibly felt in various ways. Al- ready there hes been an important decrease in corn receipts at Western vrimary markets, and the exports of corn Guring the eleven months of the current year have been only 99,600,000 bushels, against 167,900,000 bushels the same time last year—a decrease of not far from 50 per cent. Short crops of corn and cotton are not elements of prosperity, mo matter how much compensation growers may recelve in better prices, nor how much the loss may be counteracted by business activity in other dai- rections, True presperity is based on abund- snce, not scarcity. ““The reaction may not be pleasant, but it will be beneficial. Readjustment is necessary to changed conditions. The United States is £till enjoying great prosperity, particularly in certain sections; but the progressive movement $s Jess uniform than six or twelve months ago, the crest of the wave has been reached in some quarters, and recessions are due if we are to have a heaithy stock market and active and Substantial mercantile markets. There are gigns that the market leaders appreciate these facts, and that the downward tendency is be- ing assisted by manipulation. When the mar- et has been tested, the weak spots discovered #nd new blood and mew capital admitted, we may expect & recovery. But the upward turn 35 not yet in sight and stocks are likely to be @& good sale on all sharp rallies.”” Dried Fruit in New York. Mail reports from New York say: “Raisins are much higher on the coast. The *High Five,’ or California seeding combine, finally named new prices yesterday which are %c per Ib higher on seeded, 1}c higher on 2- crown and 3-crown loose Muscatels, Pigher on 4-crown loose than the former asso- ciation prices, which were withdrawn suddenly & week ago.

All hands seemed indisposed to trade and even the bears refused to press matters. Early cables were weak, but not as far depressed as had been expected. Cash business was smail. The rali- road tieups curtailed receipts, but reports had it that the cold weather was not hurting win- ter crops. The early small demanl gave way to some buying and the session was bereft of any speculative interest. May opened a shade lower to a shade higher at T9% to T9%c, touch- ing To%c. sagged off to TR@I0Yc, and closed steady, a shade lower at 79%c. Corn had much the same experience as wheat, though it was stubborn against a bearish movement.

Coarse grains were firmer on continued cold weather. The crowd was bearish and short and the bears hammered the market. Wires to Bolton, De Ruyter & Co. said: “The Cincinnati Price Current reports winter wheat having ample molsture and pro- tected by snow in most sections. The condition of the Kansas crop, however, is attracting at- tention. The plant has no snow covering, the temperature is 10 degrees below zero and the farmers are getting anxious, These unfavor- able reports started buying, which checked the decline. The Northwest reports livestock be- ing hastened to market to save feed. Spring wheat mills report a decreasing demand for flour and slow buying of wheat for export.
