FRIDAY, July 16-6P. M.
With one or two important exceptions trade
matters have joggec along at the same easy pace
during the past week tnat was mainta during
the several weeks INN ediately preceding. There
has been very little manifest disposition to
go beyena the limits Of actual current
wants in making purchases OF merchandise,
and strangers IN town have merely halted on their
way In quest or recreation at the various summer
resorts contiguous to this city. There has been
partial revival In the hardware business, and
trade showed some signs OF picking up. Dry goods
continue dull and unpromising. The most note
worthy event of the week. rcially considered is
the unprecedented activity and buoyancy in the
breadstuffs market, consequent upon the heavy
rains in Europe, which said 10
have greatly damaged the grain crops. The rains in
England during past few days reported by cable
10 incessan and very heavy large tracts of
country having been inundated. The excitement In the
wheat markets of both England and America has
cordingy high and prices have jumped up from day
to day at unprecedentedy rapid tie, showing an
appreciation OF 12c. l5c. per bushel during the
week aud the market closing excited and with
sul strong upward tendency. The unexpec ted turn
in the market has already caused heavy losses,
considerable sales having been arrive basis
