Pressed Stecl ery, but the repressive effects of situation were demonstrated by the subsidence of activity in the market, the volume of deai ings falling below half a million shares for the first time in several weeks. Late yester- day it became known that $2,500,000 in gold in transit from South Africa to London had secured for New York.

The Imperial Bank of Ger- many has over $12,000,000 gold more than a vear ago, while its discounts and advances have been reduced about $50,000,000, and its note circulation is also slightly less. The pre- sentation of checks to the Sub-Treasury for the anticipated Government interest were larger to-day than vesterday, but their effect on the money market was again counteracted by the deposit at the Sub-Treasury of $400,000 | for transfer to New Orleans. Although the applications at Washington for Government deposits are reported to have taken up all of the avallable $9,200,000 Government bonds, it is evident that none of the deposits will csme to_New York.

Offerings, however, were light. at times was very dull, but long holders sold a good deal of stuff to scalp- ers, who in turn dumped it on the bulges and There was a good cash demand, rains were predicted, and the estimated receipts for to-morrow were much curtailed from the receipts of to-day.

BOSTON, Sept. 16.—There is a quiet move- ment in wool that amounts to considerable volume when all put together. The feeling is that prices are hardening and that wool not s0ld to-day will be wanted to-morrow. Lead- ing wool dealers say they feel very comfortable about the money, that it is ecarly to sell wool and at full pricés. Fine territories are espe- clally firm, with wools of a medium grade weil held. There is a fair movement going on.

WHEAT FREIGHTS—Owing to the very lively demand for Wheat for export to Europe and South Africa, considerable chartering is being done at the moment, at rates ranging from 21s 3d to 24s for Europe, according to quality of carrier, and 25s to South Africa. | Tacoma_charters to South Africa at 30s, and | Portland to Europe at 20s 0d, are reparted. Steamers are getting the customary advance of | a couple of shillings over these rates. The | chartered wheat fleet in port has a registered tonuage of 53,066, against 91,070 tons on the same date last year; disengaged, 55,800 tons, against 15,170; on thé way to this port, 230,700 tons, against 190,570. WHEAT—The foreign markets were steady anc not materlally changed. Advices from Buda Pesth said that Hungary has raised an enormous crop this year. The world’s visible | supply, according to Bradstreet's, increased | 2,198,000 bushels, Chicago was featureless and several fractions | lower. Offerings were light and buying orders | few. The demand at St. Louis and Kansas | City was only fair. Duluth reported 500,008 bushels taken for export. The San Francisco market was rather lower on call, but firm as to cash grain, which con- | tinued in demand.

Large re- tailers report that they are buying all the fancy creamery they want under 830c, most of them quoting their purchases at 20@20%c. As a wholesale quotation 30c is the top of the mar- | ket, and has been all along. If a dealer breaks a box and sells half a dozen squares out of it or gives free delivery several miles away he charges an advance over the quotations, of course. Thers is no lack of supplies on the | market, and some dealers are overstocked. Cheese remains as quoted for a week or more, the demand and supply about balancing. Eggs rule firm and are quoted higher again. Large buyers, however, say that they are sup- plying their wants at 33c. There are a good many Western offering, but fine ranch are scarce.

Choice table Grapes continued to move off well, especially Tokay in large open boxXes. There were very few fresh Seedless received ard carrled-over stock was pot wanted, even at the bottom rate. The canners bought cholce Muscat at $15 per ton. Zinfandel Wine Grapes were in brisk demand, but only a few lots of strictly cholce brought the top quotation. The other descriptions sold slowly at low prices. The market was well supplied with orchard fruits and most descriptions were lower. Mountain Peaches were weaker, although cholce Strawberry Frees would readily bring 75e per box If obtainable. Quinces were offer ing freely, but met with very little inquiry. The canners cleaned up the river Peaches on the wharves, paying $10 per ton for cling and $5@8 for free-stones. Melons were dull under literal supplies and a light demand. Berries | showed little change. Three cars of New Orleans Bananas came in and found ready sale. Fancy Oranges and Lemons moved fairly well, but the poor grades were very full.
