THE COLlECTORSHlP.
General Goff at Washington in the
Interest of Pierpoint.
President Arthur's Plan Of Consolidation
Giving Him Chances Of Beng
Retained.
S,scinl Disrntch 10 The Reais,er.


WAsHIxGroX, D. C., June 24.-It was ex-
pected until late yesterday that the order
OF consolidation of internal revenue dis
tricts would be promulgated last night,
but at late hour a postponement until to.
morrow was announced, and it is said that
the order will undergo some modification
in the meantime. Gen. Nathan Goff left
for home last night, he having been here
for two days, it is said, in the interest Of
Collector Pierpoint. 1t is understood to be
the plan of President Arthur where two or
more districts are consolidated to retain
the collector who has been in office for the
Briefest Period of Time.
In view of this policy, if it is carried out
in the case of West Virginia, it is very
probable that Duyall, after the consolida-
ton of the Second district in that State
will be relieved, and Pierpoint retained, as
the collector OF the consolidated district,
with head quarters probably at Wheeling.
Another reason given for the belief that
Pierpolnt is to be retained is that he was ap-
pointed by President Garfield, and hereto
fore it has not been Mr.. Arthur's policy to
disturb officials appointed BY his predeces-
sor when it could be avoided for the reasons
given. It is asserted that Pierpoiut will be
the collector of the West Virginia Internal
! Revenue District after the scheme Of con-
solidation is perfected,

GENERAL REVIVAL
Expected to Take Place In Trade In
aFeW Weeks.
PROSPECTS OF THE CROPS GOOD.
No "Corners" in the Provision Market
Expected for Some Time to
Come - The Boys on
Change Timid.

New YORK, June 22.-The general bust.
ness situation throughout the United
States, as reported to Bradstreets, by special
kilograms from leading business centres,
presents added elements OF strength. These
may be briefly stated to be due to the COL
lapse OF the Chicago provision corner and
brighter prospects for an average crop OF
wheat in many states where it had been
supposed irreparable damage has been
done.
From many interior towns the word
comes that, while the movement of gen.
eral merchandise is only tair, the harvest
ing season has begun, the prospects for a
crop are good, and that within few weeks
the
Revival In General Trade
is, therefore, confidently expected. Pro-
visions were abnormally high, and the
legitimate home and foreign demand had
long been checked by the prices ruling at
Chicago. Wheat and corn, in sympathy
with the break in provisions, have declined,
and during the greater part OF the week
have exhibited nervous irregularity, due
to the efforts made TO sustain them, an in
creased shipping demand and rumors OF
failures of grain and produce houses East
and West.
The Foreign Grain.
The position OF the foreign grain mar.
kets does not warrant belief In an active
export demand, as supplies from other
sources are abundant, and prices here are
still relatively higher than in London.
The iron market has sustained slight
Improvement for the better brands Of pig
at several cities. Prices are unchanged,
but the demand for supplies OF raw iron
are more frequent than of late, and better
feeling is apparent among holders. An
thracite coal is still moving West IN no.
ticeably large quantities, and Is equally
conspicuous in the East for dullness.
Petroleum
is somewhat lower. on the week after
having suffered a depression. OF five to six
cents on Monday and Tuesday. There ap'
pears to be no cessation to the organized
bull and bear movement, and the alterna
ting advance and depression between 81 10
and 81 90 have as yet left no particular ad.
vantage on either side, beyond the in.
ability OF the short IN interest to break prices.
The position of refined is no more settled
than a week ago. Ocean freights on the
berth are somewhat frmer, due to there
being less available tonnage in the face OF
moderately increasing inquiry. Char.
tering has been light. The wool trade has
continued quiet, and the markets generally
have ruled weak.

CHICAGO. June 23.-The markets on
Change yesterday were as quiet as they
were up to only twenty.four hours before
excited. Even disturbing rumors have
disappeared Not a failure occurred; not
one was even talked of. Provisions, which
have led in the break neck, dOwn.hill race
during the weeks panic, continue strong
and are apparently recovering. Pork last
night was 25@30c a barrel above last
nights figures and lard 6dl0c hundred
pounds higher. Corn and wheat are a
trihe higher, but are not as strong as pro-
visions. 1t is natural that they should not
be so ready to recover. They did not
Suffer so Violently
"a pork and lard, and consequently, as is
often the case with invalids, are likely to
take longer while before recovering. No
one looks for a very great change in pres
ent prices for awhile. The Whllom dashlng ing
STYLE OF speculation, OF buying Sl,OOO 900
or 81, 900, 900 worth of grain or provisions
TO advance prices so as to sell before the
market loses the impetus it got, from the
buvipg. has evidently gone out OF vogue.
IL don't think you'll hear OF corner IN
produce for at least two years, said com.
mission man; "other corners have failed
here before, and the
Engineers efThem
been ruined, but no disaster ever caused so
much suffering among the brokers as the
last one. A man who attempted corner,
while this McGeoch lard corner is remem-
bered, would not be safe. -,
The feeling is, apparently, that 1t will
take a long while for produce speculatorss
to regain confidence in each other, ana
that during this period of suspicion there
will be no great tiuctuation IN Ptlces.

and lard is a reason why the latter may not
Weld TO depressing influences 50 quietly as
grain. but it is not even suggested that the
packer is manipulating the product, or
that he bought il with any other intention
than to distribute it through his agents
over all the world, 10 consumers.
The bulls, such OF them as are left, are
rot disposed to buy fearing that prices
may go lower.
The receipts for corn and wheat are
| lighter than for any time within iort'
night. There are indications that the

association wanted the race rowed at Hall
