MONEY AND COMERGE.
FINANCIAL.
Bckdat Bvrmwo, Oct. IS.
The financial record of the week is a gratify*
log one. Though Uio demand for money lias not
exhausted the available resources of the banks,
It Lm boon lair and steadily improving. Bank*
erotro not eager to enlarge their loans unduly
r.t this time. Packers will soon be in the market
Cor accommodation, and this activity, with (he
**Lor demands incident to the early winter, will
caako money much closer in thirty or sixty days.
Open lotus on the Board of Trade are almost
entirely in cash property. This diminishes the
usual employment of funds on 'Chance, ami
leaves a amplus in the bauds of the Board of
Trade banks. Money can be borrowed
of these institutions by strong par*
ties, with good securities, at rates ranging
from G per cout on call upwards, With the mor
oaotilo banks money is firmer ; outside loans are
tegoUatod with less readiness, and at lees lib
eral rates, end somo of these institutions hare
refused first-class outside paper. To regular
customers, the nominal rate of 10 pec coot la
■till charged. Money ou the street is firmer at
MPodB per cent. , .
The clearings of the week hare Indicated the
activity of tbo banks and the better condition of
gcooial bojiusas. They are :

As we bare explained, tho clearings are aug
mented by the cash operations of the Board of
Trade, which have largely aupejeecled the '‘dr
iving’’ of previous seasons* On the other hand,
ihe checks of real estate speculators, which
tznoonied to large suras before tiie panic, are
not now any appreciable element in the clear
ings. The balancs Is in favor of a real increase
vi tbe clearings, aud of tbe legitimate ousutess
cf the city, which is considered i»y m&n*or our
tort bankers and business meu to be better thau
before th# panic. „ . .
• New York exchange is usually made in large
Quantities at this season by the tshipinent of
Jjroouca to the East, aud is cousa
queully usually cheap. Us unprece
dented comse this weci: has been upward,
find it has risoa from 25a discount to COo premi
um, and there is talk of shipping currency to
the Bust to make exchange. No tucu step has
yet been taken. The caueo of this high price of
exchange is, of Course, understood to be the
Bi;ht shipments of gram Etintward.
Tho fi&me cause has been.at work in tho heavy
remittances which have been made to New York
in tbe last fortnight, by the Chic.igo bauke, ou
behalf of thoir country correspondents, whoso
customers, the country people, are paying thoir
debts iu money, and uot with produce.
Tbe movement of currency to tue country has
b*eu unusually light.

BOUTUEUN STATE DEUTS.
The debts of all the Stales and Territories
of the Union, it ia estimated, do not much ex
ceed 4399.090,091). A considerable amount of
this eutn was incurred by tbs loyal States to
equip troops to aid in the suppression of the
Confederacy. OX this $399,090,990 the eleven
Southern States owe ouo-half, or about $160,-
000,0091 And not a dollar of it ia war debt.
Much cf it, Indeed, was created by fraud and
B.undliag eince the war, but none for the sup
port aua maintenance of Confederate troops.
Ail that was long ago repudiated.
STATU UKBT OP VIRGINIA.
The debt of tho State of Virginia was contract
ed for luternal improvements, the chief among
them being tbo James Ilivor and Kanawha
Canale. Interest oo it was paia down to tho end
of tho Rebellion, hut it cannot any longer be
raised. Tbo default is set down to these causes:
Fast, tho destruction of a largo part or tho
State's basis of credit by emancipation and tho
YVar. Tbo annual deficit is about $939,-
bCO, and the State now proposes to declare itself
insolvent, ami to try to mako some arrange
ment with ns creditors. This seems the o.ily
thing that is practicable under the circumstan
ces, and with tho eetilcd Government tlie State
now cujova, and hoc vast resources, there can he
I tll** that the creditors iu the cud will uct
lose anything.

It is amihUko, a*ya the Ijjhtau Traveller, to

in oar older and most successful corporations
tboro are but few nbo, as you run your eye over
tho long columns of names and figures, ara act
do vn as cuing a uumbor of shares which it re

projectors aud managers ot vnose chUoUsbuicuU
pass away, and their estates are divided, the

A car-load of barley which bad been inspected
on the Central track a day or two ago as No. 3
was held out of store, and sold by sample to ono
of the best judges of barley iu Cbicago at sl.lO.
Tho selling prico of No. 8 in tbo Central was
89c. This ehowa that inspectors are cot infalli
ble, especially iu barley, which is by far tbo moat
diflicult of aU the cereals to judge correctly.
Wheat In Chicago is fearfully low—for the
farmer. It would not seem Tory bad to quote it
at 83c, if that were the price on tho farm. Dut
88c hero means not more than 600 in Nebraska,
and as low os 420 for No. 3 in Lincoln iu that
Slate. The farmers there who are obliged to
sell at that price to keep the Sheriff away Hud
that the product of a 10-aore patch only re
move? him a few inches farther from their doors.
The heats, who profess to be working iu tho
interest of the widow and orphan, will undoubt
; cdly take courage from this fact, even if they do
not Hud auy satisfaction in it. And the wheat
crop is almost tho sola dependence of the Ne
braska f&rmors this year.
The leading produce markets were moderately
active to-day; with a firmer feeling lu grain, iu
sympathy with a steadier tone East, which was a
revival of confidence shaken by the small fail
ures recently announced. The fear that they
would ho followed by larger ones is now over;
aud there Is a belter inclination to invest at tho
reduced prices winch followed tue break Iu con
fidence. The trading here was largely specula
tive, however, the shipping movement being
very slow, as 1b usual on Saturday.
Iu tue dry-goods market there was only fair
activity, few buyers being present, while the
orders received through tho mails were less
numerous than ou tho preceding days of the
week. Prices remain steady and firm for most
lines. The grocery market ruled quiet, with no
important price-changes. Sugars display a lack
of Hirougth, but other mauls articles aud moat
side-goods are held with a lair degree of firm
nest. There was a free movement iu butter
and clieedo at well-maintained prices, though
rather less fiimucss Is manifested among
holders of the former* Activity and firrauoHH are
fttlil features of the Ash raarsot. No further
changes wore repot tod. Domestic dried fruits
•i.Miiua dull, with prices unsettled, but in
iuruigu ansumnouiH ilnwe is a (rea movement at
rather firmer races. No quotable changes wore
developed in the coal, wood, and ml markels.
Tobauooa were fairly active, and wore held with
great firmness, the remloucv being to hlghoi
prices. 'lhe canned-goods trade lies not yef
lairlv opened, but there areimiicatloua cl an im
proved demand toward the last of the month.
With the exception of poaches the quuutious
are materially lower loan at this time lose year.

■pTOich of the olobb of navigation. The offering*
ftfloat wore very light. There were no now fea
tures in metal*, iron, natls, or bullding-mo
tonals. Tim wool and hop markets wore un
changed, Bioom-oorn mas active and fair.
Rceda wore quiet. Choice potatoes mot with a
fair Inquiry at rcccut priced, Poultry was dull
and weak.
Highniues wore iu moderate demand at a
nominal decline of 20, though the droproally
took placo vesterday. Other markets have eased
off, and Chicago holders have at last accepted
the inevitable. B.ilcs wore reported of 150 brie
at OSc per gallon, at which figure the market
closed steady. New York Doing quoted at $1.04.
Lake freights imo very quiet ami a shade
firmer, camera asking higher ra’e*. which snip*
per* refused to pav. Only one charter was re
ported. at 4 jtfc to carry 20,003 bo wheat to Buf
falo j but ii non a small vessel, and the market
ou large craft was nominal at 4o for wheat, end
Jvcfor corn.
Provisions were more active, and rather Irreg
ular. Cash pork was lu belter demand for ship
ment, with one or two lots wan;cd to fill con
tracts, and was quoted a shade higher. Options
in put k wore easier, the rear being 10c lower
than the reduced price of last evening, but were
froolv taken at the decline. Lard for future
was 5o per 100 lbs lower, with more activity.
Old lard Is practically out of the maikot, with
aevoral unsettled contract.* for this month,which
will probably bavo to be settled at fancy
prices. Meals were quiet and unchanged.
There is very JUtlo old product of any
kind here, the stocks being well cleaned
up, but there Is plenty of new stuff on hand,
and fair shipment* of It have been made during
(lie past week. Tito receipts of hogs continue
fair, though less numerous than early in tho
week when the market broke under the weight of
offerings. The general impression is that hogs
will be marketed quite ns faut as wanted, the
high price of product lending to reduce the Eu
ropean demand, ami as many hoge will uot be
wanted as last year, unless prices should recode
to a noi»»t where English buyers will
taka bold rooro freely thau now.

York was Armors while ocean freights wore

pectation among operators, on both sides, that
tho icceipts will show r further falling off next

of tho secsion that a prominent exporter hero

requires a good deal of courage to tako bold.

The following extiaots ate taken from th*
Lumberman's daze/te:
In the Western Stale*, the determination to
largely reduce the production seems to bo of un
mistakable UimucHs, and the operations already
laid out arc in accordance with such a policy.
In Michigan, there is mote doubt about the ex
tent of tbe cut, perhaps, than further west.
There are some peculiar features about the con
dition of tho lumbermen of that Stale, among
which may bo momtouoi the damages to stand
ing Umber by fire. Now. although there are
lumbermen who prefer to leave theirhorned tim
ber to its rote lather than spoil next year's mar
ket by making an ovor-atooic, it is unquestion
ably true Umt this fire damage will augment the
cat considerably. In Ponosylvauia too move
ment for reduction appears to bo well organized,
and likely to be effective. In Canada tho lum
bermen promise to reduce-the cut largely, and
the limber dealers give tho same assurance.
In the Michigan districts, whor* the prospects
are least positive, the coming season *ill hud a
very small—almost au insignificant—stock of
old logs to bogia upon. Where iu former years
thore have been old logs by the hundred
million, thore are now back only com
paratively email amount!, white many
siicams are Absolutely stripped of ail old stock.
Operations the coming winter in*y therefore bo
largely iuc.cased over last winters, aud still the
aggregate stock fall Khoit of previous years by
many millions. The present season has boon a
general foleaning-up time for almost all the
Michigan lumber streams, tho very light cut t>f
last winter aud the favorable running uoa-ioo
affording a most favorable opportunity fordoing
tbis. Few things are more certain than that the
market will be supplied with ail the lumber
which, from present appearances, it will need.

CATTLE—TIi* receipts for Ui* wcok have btvu
23,107, sgolnat 19,091 lost week, aud 13,873 for tUo
corresponding week last year, For the four weeks
cudiug to-day there have boon received 79,031, show
ing an increase of 90,170 as compared wHIi the cor
responding period hwt year. The arrivals during the
first half of the week were largo, but, anticipating a
diminished supply as iho Week advanced, holders
entertained firm views, and prices were pretty well
sustained. Under the unexpectedly heavy receipts of
Thursday and Friday, however, the market broke
down a hiWic, and closes dull and depressed at the
reduction, Wulle our supply has been the largest of
any week of the season, there were not enough lira
sud secoudlclass beeves to satisfy tbe wants of Kew
York, Albany, and Uostou, uud the quality of the
cattle scut to those points was of an unusually
low average. Of the 2J.U00 cattle oiVercd for sale only
uu insignificant number were good enough to com*
maud a higher figure tbau 14,75, waile by far the larger
part of the week’s hunlmwa wus accomplished at the
low range of 53.3359.7 ft. Htock cattle were In good de
mand, and Chicago butchers bought mors liberally
than uamd, but tha combined demand from times
sources did not prove smtldcnt to absorb ime-half the
coiiunou stuck rojoived from day to day, uml at the
close tbe auoumulallona amount to some 7,000 head.
Calves have been in light supply, aud sold at very full
rates, or at fJ.si'(?3.7fi lor poor to choice. To-day the
market was devmd u( aulnuvUtm, and the few sales re
ported Indicated very irregular prices. The receipts
were unusually large for utu cloeiug day, amounting to
1,700, whereon Saturday's receipts seldom exceed l,uod.
More common biuff now lies in the yards thau will
aaftlcs to meet legitimate demands for a week to come,
aud itwold the Mielute during tbtaaat tor days ptm
liberal It la fliillcull to noo totr a further depredation
iu values can bo averted.
At the recent meeting of tha railroad ofllclnla at llio
Padllo Hold iu thia city, awno change* iu livestock
freights were determined upon, but what Umiso
clungon wera ban not yet transpired. It vmh decided
to furnish no rolurn passes to mou in ouarg# uf slock.

week, and somo 33,800 more than for the correspond
ing week last.year, while for the font weeks ending to
day there Is *n Im-rcoss over last your of 83,000. That
considerable confidence Is felt in the Immediate future
of prices la pretty clearly demonstrated by the fact
that, under an average dully supply of lß,ouo hogs, the
■ggrcfl'.to decline for the week scarcely exceedslUASlo
per loti lbs. The great bulk of the 00,030 Uoga have
been ditponed of tbrougb the usual channels,—that is,
to shippers and city butchers,—the purchases of the
few packers who have been killing from time to time
throughout the summer and fall months not having
been very materially Increased' Most of tho packing,
houses have now teen put in order for tho Reason’s
work, and, as soon as tho weather will permit, it is
probable that packers will begin operations' Early In
the week the quality of (ha hogs was much above the
recent average, but tha arrivals of tho post two or
thru dayo have been less aalisfartory. To-day there
was a tack of activity. Buyers operated with little ap
parent interest, end,although prices wore lowered 10(5)

mained quiet to the close, bides at $3.00(33.75 for In

CHICAGO DRI-UOODS iURKET.
Saturday Evrxcrn, Oct. 17.
Burins Hit past three days but Uttla activity wag ap
parent In any department of the dry-good* market,
while, aside rtom a fow of the leading Huba, eittome
quietude has prevailed. Tha m*vket for cotton goods
displays some animation, and there IB a well sustained
demand for brown and bleached cotton flannels, chav
lot stripes, worsted dress goods, shawls, and hosiery,
but the aggregate distribution was undoubtedly small
er than for the corresponding three days of lust week.
The belief prevalent amongst jobbers that business
will continue steadily f ilr throughout the fall and far
into the winter Is baaed upon a knowledge of the fact
that stocks in the hands of country merchants are
much smaller (ban they bare been accustomed to carry
In past seamns,and that at most of the «mal or diitrlbot-
Ing points in the West, which look to Chicago far tneir
supplies, a fair, If not active, business Is being prose
cuted. Concerning collections, there Is no c*nso for
complaint. From thoss sections where the drought
and grasshopper* were the roost dcolmoiivo remit
tances are alittle lardy, but, as a rule, collection* are
comlugforward with commendable promptitude. No
important price changes have taken place sines our
last report, and the general market now presents a
steady lone. Carpeting* are moving with soma free
doom at unchanged price*.
