hogs was about equal to the excess in numbers
OF the preceding year, making the winter
cess I'm both numbers and weights OF the sum
mer packing to Offset the increased exports.
How lar this is already offset may be seen by
computing the excess of weight on the ,OOo,-
600 packed and on the 2OD,OOO head excess
packed, estimating the weights since May l..
In round numbers this would make about
one ha the excess OF exports OF i2o,OOOOOO IDS
this year over last, leaving the halance Oh tnis
excess TO be overcome by the further excess OF
this summers packing over last.
In order to use these figures 10 judge OF the
possible future course OF the market, we must
consider that the prices of this season are ma
terially below those of last, and should stimu-
late consumption upon the theory of the lower
the price the greater the dem md which should
certainly hold good this year with wheat at
the recent and even present high prices Lard
is in the neighborhood of l1zc per 10 lower
than the average OF last year ana P1Tk Sz per
Dbl, and prices were even considerably higher
than present ones when the bulk of this excess
of exports was made. Present lower prices
should therefore still further stimulate con-
week at this decline seems to anticipate this
result.
On the other hand, to offset this, disbelievers
in better market for the future claim that
the exces of exports over last year do not rep
resent foreign consumption, as a greater part
of it, if not all more than all, is still held on
the other side instead of here, and is still as
gcn part OF our snpPy S IL ~
divide, and the tendency of the market Is
difficult to discover until it becomes more
settled than now.
GRAIN AND FLOUR.
We note some improvement in corn to-day
at slight advance on quotations than has
prevailed for the past week. Wheat is lower,
and oats remain dull and nominal.
The following shows the receipts of corn at

REDUcrIoN or BANK CAPITAL.

REDUCTION or BANK CAPITAL.
The New York Trade Journal of the 18th
says:
We noticed last week the reduction in the
National Bank of Commerce. The action of
the state in the taxation of bank capital has
brought about very serious reduction, as will
be shown by the following figures. AS the
money market now stands, this reduction
will have no apparent effect, but when money
l. once more in demand the trade of New
York will be very much Inconvenience. The
following banks in New York City have re-
duced their capital within a year:
