OUR NEW YORK LETTER.


from our Regular Correspondent
NEW YORK, Aug. 31st, 1888.
The deadlock in the Pennsylvania
Legislature is rapidly growing I'M
bearabIe to the taxpayers of that
State, and the longer they hold out
the lower the Democrats will fall in
the estimation of their constituents.
The apportionment bill which the
| Democrats tried 10 rush through so
as to make use of their brief term of
ascendency for wholesale spoiation
will never pass, as the Republicans
are determined not to let unfair play
go through. Meanwhile the Cover
nor continues to make a pitiful I'M
manly spectacle of himself by the
mannerin which he allows himself
to be swayed by those around him.
John Kelly is keeping very quiet
on the subject of the "od ticket" In
fact the more the Tildenites boom it
the quleter he gets. This silence is
omlnous and fOretells that as soon as
the active campaign will begin. KEEL

chasm which divides the Democratic
party, and that if a bridge is to be
built to enable "the great defrauded,n
to cross 1t he and his satellites will do
their utmost to prevent it. Under
the circumstances all that the Repub-
licans have to do is to look on and
await Developments.

great aid to the Republican party.

lescence will be rapid.

dress accepting the nomination he be-

NEW YORK, September 1.-Spec-
ial kilograms to Brndstreet's this " eek
state that distinct improvement has
taken place in the fall trade movement
reported one week ago. At Mime
aDolis, st. Paul and Kansas City the
prospects are brightest for an early
and full volume of trade. While
trading has been greatly curtailed of
hate in the northwest, the harvest Of
wheat is now about completed, and
farmers in that region have newer
been better able to supply their
wants than at present. The call for
dry goods from Boston, New York
and Philadelphia is conspicuous
feature of the weeks report. and du-
plicate as well as new orders by mail
are bailding up large tota of trans
actions. In the south the most
favorable reports respecting gen
eral trade coming from Savannah.
Chicago, Louisville, Peoria, H., and
Burlington, Iowa, are enjoying q
good seasonable trade. From Chi
cago large Sums are being shipped by
the banks to the interior in response to
the liberal receipts of produce by rail
from the entire region tributary to that
city. Business is said to be steadily
improving at all of the stiles named
and the report is made that the out
look FOR the tall trade is very favor
able indeed. AT Cleveland and St.
Louis but a moderate volume of bus
mess has been transacted of late, al
though there are DO depressing influ-
ences perceptible. Pittsburgh has
been similarly affected. At Cintin-
natl, Detroit, Milwaukee. Evansville
and Topeka but moderate degree
of animation has been observed. The
wheat market has been dull and de-
pressed. This has been caused by
heavy receipts at tie west, excellent
harvesting weather and lower cables
from Europe. Corn, for similar reas-
ons, has latterly shown some weak
ness, and speculation has been re-
strleted. There is yet time for the
frost to injure tiris e-S~s.i, bur
days of weather like that Of the past
week will insure more than full
average crop, although its quality
may have to be called in question.
Provisions have been weak, after
more strength and slightly higher
prices earlier in the week. The neg
lect Of consumers as well as specula-
tors, and heavy stocks abroad, in con-
nection with continued increased re-
ceipts of hogs at the west, are respon-
sible for this.
The were 149 failures reported to
Brodstreet's during the past week, of
which 126 were in the United States
and twenty two in Canada. The to-
tai in this country is the smallest
number in any one week since Octo-
her IA, 1882, is fifty-three less than
last week, but sixteen more than in
the corresponding week in 1882, and
twenty-five more than in the like
week in 1881.
