Review of the Local Grain, Produce and
Provision Markets.

Review OF the Local Grain, Produce, and
Provision Markets.
NDIANAPOLIs June 81.
Rather quiet, covers the business situation.
The excitement over the break In prices of the
provision and grain markets Is gradually sub-
siding, and no general trouble is anticipated az a
result. Financially the country is In good shape
TO resist anything panicky In character. The
Boston Advertiser. a very conservative paper,
after speaking of the crop prospects,, showing
that IN the crops lies the wealth of the country,
says the prosperity of a country does not de-
pend So much upon the amount OF gold or ready
money 1t has at any gwen time. as upon the re-
served power 1t has of attracting
a sufficient amount when its serv-
tees are necessary. The struggle
for gold by the great commercial nations la in
Its nature very like the sJrnSgle for currency In
the various trade eenters In any country. Sue
cess In obtaining 1t is blt temporary incident,
ana not q permanent triumph. And this must
always be so from the very nature of the case,
go long ne money has for its chief end the object
of securing the best reward, which can only
come from the promotion of trade and the faeil-
ttating of business operations. Money is always
seeking the most profitable employment consist
ent with safety, and 1t goes where 1t is most
wanted. If the East wants the grain or the Oth-
ef commodities OF the Westit must pay for them,
and " the West wants the commodities OF the
East IL must pay for them; hut the payment in
either ease does not necessarily Involve the act
nal moven ent OF money. Trade balances only
are settled III that way. But il happens that at
the West an amount greatly in excess of what
the West wants from the East, and this leads
naturally and inevitably 10 . movement OF
money. At such limos there may be a scarcity
