THE WOOL TRADE.
Magnificent Results of the Republican
J hi ill' 15111 Now Apparent.
Jchn Woiinei's circular says: It Is a long time
since wool town was as lively as it has been the
past week. All the packing, grading and scouring
mills are busy. Even Labor and Admission days
were not observed. The movement of wool la
enormous, comprising all kinds, wools selling
from be to 18c The arrivals have been very lib
eral as lots of old wools which were held in the
: country ior two or three years have been mar
keted, Ibe country is flooded with wool-buyers,
and there are sometimes three or four buyers on
: one clip of wool, so the sheepmen have a harvest,
and they are not slow in taking advantage Of the
sauie. The Eastern market is reported very
active and advancing. The woolen goods market,
although between seasons, is very lively and the
woolen-mills have to refuse orders. Hardly any
body expected such a stale of affairs, even after
the "tariff bill passed, ana with the enormous stock
of wo. 1 in bands of the mills all over the
country, everybody expected a quiet market, but
so far there has not been a lel-up and wools ad
van red from 2c to 3c per pound in the grease, or
fiom ;0c to 12c on the scoured basis since the
tariff bill went into effect. It will take very little
time b-:oi" we will have wool on an importing
basis 11 • week closes with a strong, active de
mand for . .1 Kinds of wool
The same dealer says, in his eighth semi-annual
report of .he wool situation: -*Iv March, the mar
ket opened firmly, being 25 to 30 per cent higher
than last year In anticipation of the passage of '.lv
tar ft bill, and a great amount of wool was sold at
good prices up to the first of May. During the
months of May and June things quieted down
materially, as people did not know wheu the tariff
would be "pu. in operation, and every effort was
made to pile in all the foreign wool and woo en
goods which could posslby be brought into this
country. Finally, auout the first of July, when the
tariff bill had passed the Senate and had gone to
lb- Conference committee, a speculative feeling
arose and larger salts weie made in the first three
> weeks of July than have ever been made ln tne
history of the United Mates.
• Everybody expected that after the tariff bill
had been passe 1 mere would be a quiet market.
They were agreeably di .appointed, however, as
the market kept on at a live. y rate, and Instead of
tj or Vi of domestic wool being sold 10 %or **4
61 foreign, domestic woo. came 10 tbe irct, sa.es
were reversed aud three times more domestic
wools were sold than foreign.
'•The market lias been creeping up until now it
is fr^m 50 to 60 per cent higher than it was dur
ing the free wool tariff, and if it still keeps on It
will no: be long before wool will be on an im
porting basis. here are several reasons tor this.
In the first place the foreign markets, even arter
the American support had been withdrawn, kept
str --. o-.ii.ig to the shortage of the Australian
and South American clips. The general properity
of the country, with high prices for all farm
products, is also a factor. so li is not surprising,
even with the large sticks of foreign and domestic
wool on nan -, thai-prices are firm, there be.ng a
liberal demand with an advancing tendency.
-California, Nevada and Oregon were especially
favored with good prices for wool and mutton,
when will make wool-growing one of the most
profitable businesses.
"The outlook is good for a steady market and
fall wools especially will command good prices.
Jt would not surprise me much If prices would
soon be on a par with the prices of 1892. Mutton
commands a <00.l price and stock sheep are want
ed at 1 iiher prices than in 1893, as a good many
growers who went out of business duri g the last
four years are stocking up again. The outlook is
tnat 11 wil not be long before we have a larger
clip on the Pacific Coast than we have ever had
betoie."

Explanation.
The arrow flies with tbe wind. The top flgnret
at station indicate maximum temperature for the
days: those underneath lt, If any, the amount of
rainfall, of melted snow In Inches and hundredths,
curing the past twelve hours. Isobars, or solid
lines, connect pom s of equal air pressure; iso
therms, or dotted lines, equal temperature. The
word "high" means high barometric pressure and
!s usually accompanied by fair weather: "low"
refer* to low pressure, and is u-nally preceded
and accompanied by cloud v weather and rains.
"Lows" usually first appear on tbe Washington
coast. When the pressure is high In the interior
and low along the coast, and the isobars extend
north and south along tbe coast, rain Is probable:
but when the "low-- is inclosed with Isobars of
marked curvature, rain south of Oregon Is Improb
able. With a "high" in ihe vicinity of Idaho, and
Ihe i reason falling to the California coast, warmer
neither may be expected in summer and colder
weather In winter- The reverse of these conditions
"Mil produce an opposite result.

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
NEW YORK. N. V., sept. To-day's markei
was strong almost without variation, but In an Ir
regular degree in different parts of the list. Real
izing sales at one time depresed the average
price a fraction below last night's close. In addi
tion there were some sharp declines from the best
before the close The net gains for the day all
through the list are the more noticeable in view of
these facia. There was Utile news of a special
character beyond what was confirmatory of facts
already known. Much importance continues to
be attached to the declaration 01 the extra divi
dend by St. Paul yesterday, and .he good Influ nee
of this was manifest iv the improved buying for
London account today.
Ibe coalers all showed weakness during most
of the day on account of the disappointing dull
ness which continues ln the anthracite trade.
This encouraged some of the short selling and a
sharp rise in tbe af ernoon Indicated the distress
of the shorts and rallied some of tbe other coalers.
In the b"nd market the total sates (mounted
to 14,1.0,000
There were sales of United States 2s at JJSVi
and tne coupon 5s at ll4fi/fe.
The total sales ot stocks were 620.000 shares.

REVIEW OF aHE STOCK MARKET.
NEW YORK, N. V., Sept. 10.— Bradstreet's Re
view of the stock market to-morrow will say:
The stock market continues to be active, higher
and excited. Public participation in the buying
is on a very large scale and the market bas effect
ive bull leadership. London has been a seller of
stocks, though at tbe close of the week speculative
purchases for foreign account were again noted.
The professions! element has several times en
deavored to create a reaction. Such attempts re
sulted, however, tn little beyond fractional
losses, though the market gives tool: evidence of
overbuying and of the distribution of many stocks
ln the hands of weak people or of operators whose
1 disposition is to overspeculate.
In spite of th. a there was no liquidation, and at
declines a de- ided demand for slocks asserts itself.
The principal speculative event ot the week was
the declaration of Thursday by the St. Paul Com
pany of an extra dividend of 1 per cent addition
to the usual 2 per cent semi-annual one. This
action was followed by a rise in Sl. Paul to 10l*"4,
and Burlington's price followed this example on
the next day. St. Paul's course weal far 10 over- 1
come any disappointment due to the failure of tne !
sugar company to declare either an extra dividend
or an increase on the regular rate. A leading
bullish force in the market has been the increase
of railroad earnings.
LONDON M ARKET.
NEW YORK, K. V., Sept. 10.— Evening
Post's London financial cablegram: The better
aspect of the money market helped all the stock
markets to-day. Rates tor settlement purposes
promise to be moderate. Canadian railway
showed a sharp rise, Grand Trunk guaranteed
preferences being especially strong.
Americans fluctuated during tbe day, but the
net result Is that prices are higher, Milwaukee and
St. Paul leading. These latter touched 104% at
otic time. Al 4:30 the price was 10*Vs
ln Berlin the market was firmer and in Paris it
was steady to firm.

local traders accumulated a good-sized short in

CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.
CHICAGO, 111.. Sept. 10.— Wheat was ln good
demand at the start at about Vac improvement
over yesterday's closing price for December and
lc for September. For a supposedly defunct deal
September exhibited a surprising degree of ac
tivity and climbed np to $1 within a minute or two
of the opening, when the price was 99*/2 - De "
cember was declledly erratic. From 9hy».- to
98i,4c to begin with lt rose to 93%", turned and
went back to 98*/fec- Then It dropped tog^s/gC
and roe* from ilia;, ln a cradual way 10 97**4.
Irom the latter point to 89Vtc was the work of
about twenty minutes, and those fluctuations were
all within the first two hours of the session.
The rally was caused primarily by an advance
of l^c in the price at ■ Liverpool at the opening.
Paris started 10 centimes lower, but thai- market
closed at an advance of 10 centimes while Ant
wr rp gained 25 centimes. A cablegram seated that
there were good prospects of a reduction of i
francs in the duty on French wheat. Tnis was
disputed later, but In the meantime it had caused
December to jump to 99 Vie.
Chicago received 269 cars, only 12 of them con
trary Minneapolis and Dv uth. receipts were 496
cars against 1i43 the corresponding day of the
year before. Atlantic port clearances of wheat
and flour were equal to about 800,000 bushels.
Primary market receipts were 1,538,579 bushels,
compared with 1,019, 197 bushels the simllarday
lof last year. As w>.s the case In the recent boom
] in September wheat tbe market bad 'o take a
great deal of long grain when the price approached
th- dollar mark.
At 99Vic offerings were very free, much moie
liberal than the limited demand could absorb, and
the consequence was a gradual but steady decline.
December finally sold down to 98c, where It
closed. September closed at Vie
Corn was rather easy. The market opened firm,
but tbe strength was only temporary. The fear
1 hat the Government crop figures might look high
when issued to-night caused considerable selling.
«. ats ere firm, notwithstanding the downward
tendency of corn.
The appearance of new yellow fever cases at New
Orleans made a weak provision market. Liquida
tion was tree and stop-loss orders appeared. The
decline was stopped by support by Swift and other
packers and tne close was a little over tbe bottom.
The leading futures ranged as follows: .

BRADS TK ET'S REVIEW.
NEW YORK, N. V., Sept. 10.-Bradstreel*s to
morrow will say: The . business week has beea
marked by a continuation of comparatively free
buying by jobbing and commission merchants in
anticipation of the futur- wants at almost all im
portant distributing points- At a number of cen
ters special rate excursions of merchants have
assisted the week's volume of business, notwith
standing the Intervention of a holiday. Specula
tive interest an I the strength of wool remain
features of thai market.
West er eel and iron mills are practically in
dependent . of , buyers for the remainder of the
calendar year.
i he August advance In prices for more than 100
staple, raw and manufactured articles, produc
tions, livestock, etc., amounts to 3.4 cent, fol
lowing a 3. 1 per cent advance in July. During iha
first six months of the calendar year prices re
ferred to fell away about 26 per cent. .
Exports ,of wheat (flour included as wheat)
from both coasts ot the United States aud Mon
treal show a falling off from last week, but are
still very large, asgiegallng 5.461.506 bushels.
With the exception of last week, when the total
exports agure-tatel 6,268,247, they were the
largest for any week this year, and compired with
exports in the like week a year ago of 3,799.141
--in 1895 of 1.810000: in 1894 of 2,897,000 and
1893 of 3,587,000 bushels.
'there are 173 business failures reported through
out the I nited Mates this week, against 198 last
week: 308 In the week last year; 213 two years
ago: 223 three years ago, and 309 in the like week
of September. 1893.
Th re are 32 business failures reported from the
Dominion of Canada this week, compared with
31 last week: 41 In the weekja year auo; 20 two
art ago. and as contracted with 36 in the like
week of 18 'b. ;..>-
HUN'S REV.EW OK TRADE.
NEW YORK, N.Y., Sept. 10— R. G. Dun &
Co. Weekly Review of 'trade in its issue to
morrow will say: .There ;Is 'no :• halting •in J the
advance.' Business grows .better In all ways, for
while its speculative end breaks conspicuous
gamblers fora decline, a steady iucr-ase in pro
motion, working force and tbe power of the
peo; to purchase is -.he : feature which over
shadows all others. Reports of New York trade
unions show an i ucreas- since one year ago of 34
per cent in the number of men at work and a
similar increase among men in like posit on
throughout the country would exceed 3 0,000,
while every week adds many establishments to
the active list.
The -miners' strike has disclosed such facts
and bro i hi to light such differences that work
will probably bi very soon resumed by a large
share of the men. The farmers are helped by
higher' prices ior wheat, and while Western re
ceipts do not show that they have marketed a
tenth of croi s, an assurance ot handsome profit to
come prepares hem to buy liberal. hereafter.
Because of tbis and the increase of bands a;
work, dealers throughout ths country have
stared to replenish stocks, which Is the great
fores at p.tsen: operating ln nianu actures and
trade, though distribution by retail trade has
greatly Increased. ;•.••?.'"
A gain of 12 per cent in one month in the out
put of pig iron from 165.378 tons august lto
185.507 >eptember I, with knowledge that half a
dozen other furnaces are preparing to resume and
ihe unsold slocks hay- been reduced 14,400 tons
weekly in August, Indicating a consumption of
about 190,000 tons more, explains the moderate
advance in prices of finished products Pig Iron
is a shade stronger at Chicago, but the proof that
the advance Is healthy Is found in the growing
demands of consumers, especially for bars, with
inquiries for 300.000 tons r- ported at Chicago for
structural worK, Including 1-.000 tons for santa
Fe bridges, ior all sorts of car ma eria:. including
10.000 axles, and for plates, especially for ship
yards on the lakes, so that most prices have ad
vanced $1 per ton.
Copper is steady and lead a shade stronger at
$4 16 and the production of coke has reached
124.000 tons, witn 12,717 oveus in operation.
Wheat has risen 5 cents the past week, not in a
flurry, but in answer to the daily increasing for
eign demand Though reports of the crop, now
almost wholly ' out of danger, indicate a vied
never surpassed but once, foreign accounts still
strengthen the belief that the deficiency abroad
would be about 100,000,000 bushels more than
usual, and meanwhile reports indicate ibat less
corn than wa< expected will be available for ex
port, its price has risen about a/8 °* > cent. While
wheat receipts at Chicago have been break
ing records, receipts at all the Western
points are for . the week a little
below last year's, but Atlantic exports. 9,778,138
bushels, flour included, against 4,270,765 last year
for two weeks, with 5.679.771 bushels corn,
against 3,570,704 last year, indicate a foreign de
mand apparently limited at present only to ship
room.
With enormous speculative sales of wool, which
appear to constitute most of the market at Boston,
there Is also more buying there and elsewhere by
tbe woolen mills, which are enjoying extraordi
nary demand for goods at prices averag ng not 10
per cent higher than was paid early in the year.
The average advance for the week lv sureties had
been $1 12 per share for railroads and 79: for
trusts
Failures for the week have been 215 in the
United States, against 315 last year, and 36 iv
Canada, against 47 last year. .

were 42 ships loading and en route from Austra

tons. There have been only three engagements
made to load Swans' a Coal for this i-ort during
the past six mont'.is, no-.withstanding the fr utit

shrinkage of Coal loading at foreign ports is very
significant, evidently the advanced rate 01 duty
