New York, 1s.-Following is the re-
port of the condition of trade here for
the week ending to-day: General bust
ness has been good during the week and
the movement Of merchandise of all
kinds has been extensive. The number
of buyers In various markets is very
large, and there is wide spread an
ticipstion o. an active healthy trade for
the fall and winter. Money continues
easy and clearing house exchanges show
q large increase for New York over the
corresponding month of last year, while
outside Of this city, strange to say, there
is slight falling off. A more active bus
iness is done in the dry goods trade. hut
it is more with jobbers than with COM
mission houses. Buyers from large dis
tributing points south ard west are here
in force, making their fall purchases.
The small package trade Is noticably
brisk from all sections Of country. Cot
ton and wooden domestic goods are firm
IN prices and IN somewhat better demand
than last week, One condition Of this
interest is satisfactory. The market
for wheat has been quite steady,
with a slight easing off toVard the
end Of the week, and closing moderate.
Corn hes been somewhat unsettled and
prices declined. Operators seem disin-
elined to take hold. Oats have been the
leading feature of the market. August
deliveries have huctusted considerably
within the range Of &c. to &c. per bushel,
and the market closes quite strong st
something below the prices Of q week
ago. In lard and pork products cash
lard has been in very fair request for ex-
port, but the general tendency Of the
market has been downward. Prices in
all descriptions Of pork products have
somewhat declined, and the market
closes easy, with spectators not much
inclined to operate. Transactions in
cotton for the week have been dull, and
moderate in amount. Prices are quiet,
with fluctuations within the range of to
z points, the widest range being in Aug
ust deliveries. Later months have bee 4
very steady. Stocks Of wool are geT ,ar,
