FINANCE & COMMERCE.

ST.. PAUL, Sept u. While the farmers
are all engaged gathering in the abundant
harvests that have surprised the whole
country, the wholesale dealer does not ex-
pect that collections will be remarkably
good or trade active. During August and
the first half OF September the husband
man has been too busy to go to market or
to go round paying up old debts. Inc
consequence IS that collections are slow,
while trade is somewhat moderated. Every
body, however, IS satisfied with the result.
There Is all the business that can be ex-
pected, and collections are, on the whole
satisfactory. OF course the Northern
Pacific celebration occa pied the attention
of people to q considerable degree, and to
some extent inte7fered with business. Now
that this great event IS over, and the har
vest nearly completed, business will
naturally resume its old channels. Already
there are seen upon our streets buyers
from the large cities OF Montana, and even
from Washington territory. All now have
an opportunity to get to st. Paul for the
ROA ROSO u OHJAA6 SOONc'
have been fairly active during the week.
Hardware has been rather quiet. Lumber
has been improving. Drugs rather quiet.
Groceries about the same as usual, and in
fact all branches of trade are reasonably
active and fully as much so as can be ex-
pected at this season, and collections are
just about what they usually are at this
time. Flour is firm. Wheat n fair de-
mand. Oats are in good demand.
There is some call for barley. Rye
is steady. Butter is unchanged. In regard
to glass there is a good deal OF trouble to
get stocks. The manufacturers and the
blowers cannot come together, and there
seems to be no chance for the manufactur-
ers starting up, though it is fully time for
them. The stocks of glass in first hands
are necessarily very small, which makes it
almost impossible to secure certain staple
supplies. Fruits are very active. Hides
and wool are quiet and weak. Dressed
beef is easier. Provisions steady. Money
matters are without material change. OF
the two the general financial market may
be said to be a shade easier.
