MARKETS OF THE WORLD LOCAL, STATE, EASTERN AND FOREIGN REPORTS IN OUTLINE Uermsny as a Market for Dried Frult-A Local SaltFactorv-Ptanuts, Their Growth and Marketing -Local Market Changes. Mock, and Bonds one 01 Ihe United Stales consuls iv Ger many, writing iibout that country as a market tor dried fruit, advises 10 put up the goods in neat wooden boxes, the top and bottom layers to be placed rarefullv. so as to make a good Impression when Hie box Is opened. 11,. ihinks It would be hest to ship to firms in Hamburg or Bremen who have traveling salesmen regularly vis iting Ihe Irade. so as to lessen the price to consumers. In this wav he thinks the business could be very rapidly developed. The consumption of bananas Is very rapidly mc reasing iv the United States. The imporis amount to more than 18,000, --500 bunches a year, aud cost more thnu $4.111111.000. Near Danby. San Bernardino county, on the line of the Santa Fe railroad, is one or the most remarkable deposits of rock suit In tlie world, it is almost pure chloride of sodium as It comes from the ground. A budding Is now being erected at the corner of Violet and Seventh streets, near the fiver, whore tills salt is to lie prepared for the market. It will be prepared in the most scientific manner with modern ma chinery and will add an Important manu facturing industry to those already estab lished in Los Angeles. Dun's Mercantile Agency in this city makes the following report, of business conditions for the week: General business stands about as last reported. The week fust closed was one of Indifferent distribution Willi the .loh bers as merchants are still disposed to buy cautiously. The volume of trade in relail lines con tinues to fall below expectations for this season of tlie year. Money is easy, hut. there are few calls for commercial lonns and collections do not Improve. Prices for oranges have weakened, hut are still satisfactory, it is estimated that less than 1000 carloads remain to be mar keted. The week showed a decided improvement in the real estate market, both city and Country and oil advanced another 5 cents toward the dollar mark. Failure* for the week, d; liabilities, $11. --650; nominal.assets. $4,500. Reeentlythe big peanut combine was formed at the east, comprising nearly all the large firms engaged in tlie business. It is composed of two branches, one with headquarters In Virginia, the other at Si. Louis. The Globe-Democrat of that city "commenting on ihe matter says: "A peanut field will yield from 25 to 100 bushels of peanuts 10 an acre, although special instances have been cited when the J'leld was from 166 to 200 bushels an acre. North Carolina is the peanul producing 'state of Ihe union, although Virginia. South Carolina. Georgia. Alabama and the JJouthern states In general raise good crops. California is also coming to the front as a producer of the goober. The European demand for Ihe peanut is sup plied by immense shipments from the western coast of Africa, while the peanut crops of India and Brazil hardly provide rprthe native consumption. "No part of the peanut is wasted. Every part and panicle of this little fruit, vege table, or whatever one may call It, turns out to be of some good. Aside from eating, the kernel is most profitably used in pro ducing oil, Two kinds ol' oil are derived from the peanut, the one belnsr almost equul to olive oil. and used by the French In the adulleratlon of the latter product. The second quality or oil derived from tlie peanut Is called Arachis oil, and is used in the manufacture of line soaps, oint ments and in medical preparallons. H also enters largely Into the manufacture t>f cold cream and pomades, and Is used often as a high-grade lubricating oil. The oil Is derived by pressure, and after this brOoess there remains a compressed cake. DUt of this tour different products are Tnadc. peanut grit, peanut Hour.peanul bis cuits and diabetic chocolate biscuits. These four products are of recent discovery, and their qualification as a nutritious' and cheap foodstuff bids fair to place them prominently among the foods for tlie sup ply or the masses. The German govern ment has seriously considered the ad vlsiblllty ot adopting the products of the peanut as a rood line for its soldiers and sailors. Even the shells of the peanut are used. They arc crushed anil are of service in horse bedding. A quality nf paper Is also being made out of peanut shells. So it w ill be seen that the modest little peanut Is forcing just recognition of its worth and merit. "The crop or 1595 was 2,500,000 bushels; In 1804 and ISOS the crofts were over 8.000.000 bushels; in Iso 2. 4,000,000 bushels were produced, and in ISOI Ihe banner pea nut crop or almost 5,450.000 bushelswas raised. It Is evident from the above figures that the demand for peanuts this year will not be filled, and the 1,800,000 bushels will have 10 be distributed in an equitable proportion, as otherwise many lovers of peanuts will be compelled to torego the pleasure of their periodical bag of pea nuts. "The price of goobers has been getting lower since ISS9. At present the handlers about B%cents a pound for them, al though in 1805 llu- average price was but 2% cents." rhe treasury figures for Isor, of the ma terials entering into use in the distillation <tl spirits -whisky, gin. rum. etc.- are corn. 32.iXHi.o0ii bushels; rye, 3.700.000 bushels: mall. 1.000.000 bUSliets. and molasses. 6,Chso,Ooogal lons. A bushel of grain yields iour gal lons or whisky. Five gallons of molasses yield four gallons of mm. A bulletin has been issued by the agri cultural department showing Ihe world's wheat market of 1595. A comparative statement gives the figures lor (he wheat crop since 1891, The figures for 1801 show that the total wheat crop for that year amounted to 2.424.102.000 bushels, while the crop for last year was 2,5116.049.000 bushels. This Is the largest crop for a single season within the last live years, save that of the year 1894, which reached Ihe figures of 2,690.588,000, The report shows I hat Ihe world's crop for 1895 exceeded that of 1891 by 142.0iJ0.i8W bushels, although It was less than the crop for ISO 4 by 124.000,000 bushels. It is also shown that there has been a wonderful Increase in the wheat produc tion of Russia. The crop of Russia in Europe increased from 253.000.000 bushels in IS9I to 401.000,000 In 1893. an increase of more man So per cent. and. although in ISO! and 1595, it shows a falling off from the enor mous yield of 1898, It still exceeded 4011,000 - 000 iv 1895. The total Russian yield, includ ing Trans-Coucasla and two governments of Western Siberia, exceeded In 1893 528,000 - 000 bushels, which was more than 132.000 ono over the total of the United States for the same year. The total Russian vleld for 1594 was 524,000,000. an excess over the yield of the United States for that year of 64 - 000,000 bushels, and In 1895 the total Russian product reached the figure of 474000000 bushels, which was just 7.000,000 more than the total of the United States for the some period. The figures show a decrease dur ing the three years in the Russian yield while that of the United States has'been Increasing, although the yield for 1805 In our own country Is considerably below that of 1892, and immensely inferior to the mam moth crop of 1891. The crop of Argentina, which Is always a prominent factor in the world's wheat crop, Increased from 82.000 - 0110 bushels In 1891 to 80,000.000 In 1894, but it fed back to 60,000.000 bushels last year Whether this indicates that the wheat de velopment of our South American rival is permanently arrested is very doubtful, as there are no data from which a con clusion can be reached on this subject.

The general weather conditions were, however, sea sonable and while the desiccating winds rapidly absorbed the moisture from the soil, vet Ihe conditions were favorable for the growth of crops and the rain saved the labor anil expense of Irrigating orchards.

Tho general advance was checked at the ex piration of realization orders. In which sugar bore the brunt of selling. The an nouncement of a special engagement ot 1600,001) In gold to be shipped tomorrow on Russian account was on the theory that this shipment would be the forerunner of oilier exports. The market, however, did not respond yesterday to any noteworthy extent. The shipment mentioned, together with the $800,000 forwarded yesterday. Is drawnu from financial institutions and does not count against the treasury re serve. There were purchases of an active character which gave a tlrmer tone to 1 lie marljet around midday and caused ap preciation In prices.

BoirJ ol Trade CHICAGO. April B.—Wheat was active Cfom start tn finish. The opening showed t lossof i >4<it-\<' compared with Monday's ■Insl figures, but the market gradually sold up 1% cents, eased off 1% cents, changed someand closed firm. The early ihow of weaknesswas due to rains iv the winter wheat belt and the prospect of more in the same sections, atid then cables came in easier, first Liverpool advices showing Ud decline. New York reported foreigners quite free sellers there for fu tures. Longs were inclined to realise and take profits, but the offerings were quite readily absorbed, tho buying apparently being led by a prominent operator with elevator and packing interests, and the market turned ami went sharply upward. Second cables came 1%f(1%d lower and offerings again increased, elevator Inter ests selling freely and then caused prices o react. Northwestern receipts were larger than a week ago and exceeded those of the same dale in 1895 by 140 cars. Corn moved In sympathy with wheat. The market was more active than for many days before and looked for a long time as If it Would maintain an advance of %c or so: but it cloaeilat. %c decline. Tho market for oats was active and a big business was transacted Which was of a very generalnature and scattered. A firm feeling existed shortly after the opening. Influenced by a strength In wheat.
