Nevertheless it was clear that a number of weak accounts were shaken out. There was a rally in the ports that the frost had done little damage and at the same time Manhattan also selling ex- idend was being absorbed in small lots on rumors of closer relations with New York Cen- tral, The United States Steel shares were heavy with little or no evidence of support, but the strength of Union Pacific and St. suggestive of pool support, while the weak- ness of Chesapeake and Ohio was attributed to inside selling.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 12.—To-day's, state- ment of the treasury balances in the general fund, exclusive of the $150,000,000 gold re- serve, shows: Available cash balance, $213,655,238; gold, $126,466,651. —— % Bradstreet's on Trade. ! NEW YORK, Sept. 12—Bradstreet's will say to-morrow: Taken as a whole fall trade is still expanding in volume, because Western and Northwestern markets report unabated activity, Eastern jobbing s as active as here- tofore and the South reports more doing at nearly all centers. Frost held off until the close of the week, when a scare was worked up. Any deteroration now, however, can only be as to quality, because the crop seems secure as to quantity. Industry is active and ex- cept ip the Eastern shoe manufacturing trade, the hard coal region and iron furnace work, the latter because of the coke shortage, pres- ent outputs equal and in most cases exceed records. ' A Altogether, Government and private advices as to crops of cereals, fruits and tobacco are quite encouraging for a large yleld. Much winter wheat is below grade. The reduced movement of hogs to market is apparently based upon fewer animals on the farm. Dry weather will reduce the crop of citrus fruits in_ Florl Another notable feature is the general h exhibited by prices. The smallest stock of Wheat supplies pince 1803 is indicated both here and ‘Bxport business in wheat was Jarge early in the week, and the tendenoy of this branch of business.to expand at slight concessions is notable. The situation In wool and woolen goods is very favorable to sellers. The strength: in hides is the keynote to the leather and shoe mar- kets. Building materlal is active and lumber leads in aggressive strength. A feature in keeping *with the advancing season is the higher range of farm produce. The shortage of fuel still exasperates the ron trade, which sees tdk:f fol%‘xn flood of fron and steel growing steadily. The use of large numbers of cars to carry soft coal to the an- thracite regions agsravates the shortage of coke in the Pittsburg district. But the same complaints come from Chicago and St. Louls. Rails and structural material are still the| permanent features. Tin {s weaker, but copper is stronger in tone than last year. Wheat, including flour, exports for the weel aggregate 0,444,142 bushels, against 6,276,200 last week. Wheat exports since July 1 aggre- gate 50,101,742 bushels, against 65,841,271 last season. Business failures for the week number 197, as against 138 last week and 182 in this weelt last year. For Canada for the week, 18, aginst 14 last week. * Dun’s Review of. Trade.

Closing New York Metal Market. NEW YORK, Sept. 12.—The sharp decline in tin furnished the chief feature in to-day's metal market. The demand for tin has been rather light recently and stocks are liberal. To-day’s offerings from the Far Hast were heavier than the market could absorb without loss, and spot tin declined to $28 75@26 95. There was a decline of £1 in the London spot Provisions ruled strong under the influence Buyers are picking up everything in sight in the interior, and the market continues firm, though futires are somewhat off. : Feod, $1 o5ASH BARLEY. ed, $1 05@1 06 ; brewing and shipping grades, $110; Chevaller, $1 37%@1 47% for fair to choice, FUTURES.

NEW YORK, Sept. 12.—Call money advanced 1o 20 per cent shortly before the close of to- day’s market and the list, which had been beavy throughout, closed with marked declines. ing prices were lower though.mostly frac- tional, but the unsettled tone which character- ized the duy's comperatively moderate trans- actions was apparent from.the outset. Lon- don_came lower in the absence of New York support, though later there was considerable improvement and a better demand for inter- nationals in that market. Missouri Pacific was the chief sufferer in the early trading, selljng ff about 2 points and making no recovery. The deciine In the Grangers and Pacifics was in part due to reports of frost in the corn belt. The selling of Baitimore and Ohio was accom- paried by rcports that insiders had discounted the extra stock issue.

London Market. NEW YORK, Sept. 12.—The . Commercial Advertiser's London financial cablegram says: The markets here were quiet and frregular to-day and consols were weak. Americans were weak throughout. They began depressed and wern further affected by New Yo sales of Baltimore and Ohlo and Southern Paclfic, London was nervous over the high money rates in New York, expecting a very bad bank statement to-morrow. The close was flat. Tintos were firm at 45%-and sentiment in Parls was generally good. The Bank of England bought £5000 gold in bars and £150,000 taken for Australla. The market is beginning to talk of possible gold exports to New York. New York Money Market. NEW YORK, Sept. 12.—Money on call opened at 8. Prime 0@5% per cent. Ster- besause containing was good and falr advances were registered early. Local receipts were.improved both in quality and quantity and cables turned a trifle better. While most of the local crowd wanted early profits, it was nearly mid-ses- elon when the outside began to be affected by the advances and at that time highest prices Were reached. However, the late liquidation and predictions for warmer weather after to- night's probable frosts lopped off much of the corn gain. May was strongest and closed strong, %c up at 413c. The nearer options were supplied to the shorts in sufficient quan- tity, and with the belief that the frost scare 34 traders allowed prices to close. at barely firm figures. . September sold as. high as 60%c and closed ¥c up at 60}4c. Decem- ber closed %c higher at 437 @ddc. Wheat - made some advances early in the day in sympathy with the corn bulge, but after a fairly heavy business the pit turned heavy and the close was weak. At the out. side buying was general, under the lead of a big elevator and the commission houses. The frosts Northwest, the continuation of the small spring movement and good clearances were among the bullish incentives. After the in- itial upturn the early buyers turned quiet sellers_and the galn and more besides was ;g:.n English cables were lower but the Con- it.held firm.
