FINANCE AND TRADE.

ASKING news o. bank is about as
productive as trying TO pump dry cham
payne out OF the salt sea waves. In
financial matters there is no news, and
not even 8 mother-in-lsw could make
any under the present stagnancy. Ex-
change is dull, with the lOng-standing
quotations continued. Gold was still
on the descending scale, and by noon
had been down TO 1923; here brokers
offered lIl39ll2 for it. The following
we find in the New York Journal Of
Commerce: "The general markets have
shown more buoyancy within the last
few days, and vefy fair trade is in
progress In most branches for thisperiod
Of the year. The feature Of business is
the unusually brisk demand for bread
stuff5, especially wheat and flour, on eX-
port account, tased upon poor crop pros
pects abroad, which has served to adj
vance price, sharply. Wheat has
moved upward from Is to Is cents per
bushel within the past eight or nine days.
The exports are inside on large orders
from the other side, and the movement
is not confined to any one cls"3, but
extends to nearly all the shippers to
Great Britain ard the continent. FICUr
shows an advance Of fifty cents per bar
rel within the past three days, and
futures moved upward fifty cents yes
terday. This rise in breaOstutfs is con-
strued to mean a revival in general BUSH
ness later in the son, and 1t Is possible
that all the avenues of transportation
will be pressed TO their utmost capacity
forwarding western products to the sea-
board as fYst Ps they can be shipped to
Europe" 10 local securities We could
hear of nothing doirg and repeat quota
tiOns. observing that fire and police
scrip is weak. Fire and police IS;
school notes, $3.50; Shelby county
scdp, 1915; State notes, $500.
TIE COTTON MARKET operations were
almost confined to buyers and one cell
er, between whom $50 bales changed
hands, il was from low middling at 1850
TO middling at 14ic. The official quota
tons show the came figures. This is
long way from 20c for middling, but as
New York fell to 145c, and New Orleans
to l4sc, it ives es good as could be eX-
pected under the circumstances. A re.
ference to our very ussf0l table OF fu-
lures below will give prices in the even
ing, for November and December, as
low as Is 1892, while Liverpool ives

kilograms were as follows: New York
