The Week Opens Under Favorable Auspices
Indications of an Improvement in Trade.
INDIANAPoLIs Aug 10.
The cooler the weather seems to have given a
little more life to trade. Then the new crops are
beginning to move and there is more money in
circulation and the belief is general that trade is
to improve steadily from this on. Dry goods are
beginning to move better on several lines. A
slight advance in prices has been established.
In foreign fruits there is fair movement.
Lemons rule lower and prices are unsteady at
the reduced quotations of today. In the
produce markets a good trade is in
progress. Receipts of apples were large; prices
weaker. Young chickens drop to 10 cents per
pound. Choice butter is In good demand with
tendency to higher prices The grocery market
rules steady. Sugars not specially strong
There is frmer tone to cotfees. The figures
published by the American Grocer, showing the
relative consumption, for five years past, of tea
and coffee in this country, reveal remarkable
growth in coffee consumption and falling Off
not so great as the increase in coffee, but still
declded-in the use of tea as beverage. The
use of coffee has steadily increased from 423
216,472 pounds in the year ending June 80, 1884,
to 539 264, 406 pounds in the year ending June 30
1883. For tea the corresponding figures are 49,
13O 849 pounds, and 66, 372, 765 pounds. In other
words. we used last year an average of 81 pounds
of coffee for each man, woman child in the
United States, and about IT pounds of tea, In
1881, allowing pound of tea to make as many
cups six pounds of coffee, this Nation drank
about II per cent more tea than coffee. In 1885,
we are drinking 50 per cent. more coffee than
tea.
The local market opened steady and continued
so through the day. Dealers show considerable
interest. 1t will be noticed that there is nearly
three times the Ouantity of grain in store that
there was the corresponding period of 1884. The
Board of Trade Price Current says of wheat:

Gulf Stream and the shores of the United
States and the British Provinces. 1t is
argued that on closing the straits the
Gulf Stream would skirt the American
coast and materially change the climate
from Cape Hatteras to Newfoundland.
There is probably little doubt but what,
were this subject a little more thoroughly
studied, vast improvement could be made
in the climate of many localities in this
country. This is, comparatively speak.
ing, a new field, in which there has been
but little investigation. Yet, who knows
but that it may prove fruitful of bene'
ficent results? We know of no party so
deeply interested in the question OF
climate as man, and it is difficult to
understand why he should not have at
least some control over it-some power
which, if correctly used, would modify
its rigors and make the locality where he
may happen to be pleasant and comfort.

THE DEPTH OF IGNORANCE.

Here Is an averment which we'll illus
trates the depth of ignorance which may
exist even in the minds of cultured per.
sons. It is from the Boston Post that
we quote: EVERY month 50, 200. 900 of
gold in the public Treasury are paid out
for 80, 200, 600 of silver to lie idle in the
public Treasury"
To which the New York Sun replies:
"Isn't such ignorance something wonder
full, especially in Boston? The Treasury
buys its silver in the market, at the
market price, and has always done SO.
Whatever profit there is on its coinage
the Government makes. According to
the report of the Director of the Mint,
the purchases Of silver in the fiscal year
ending June 80, 1885, were q little less
than twenty-four millions and a quarter
of standard ounces, costing, in round
numbers, twenty.three millions and
three.quarters Of dollars; and from this
quantity of silver, more than twenty.
eight millions and a half Of standard dol.
lars were coined. That is to say, for two
millions of gold paid out monthly the
Treasury received two millions and three.
Fights of silver money. 1t is true the
silver lies idle in the Treasury. but that
is no fault of the silver. The Treasury
refuses to pay it out; that is all. In dis.
cussing these subjects it is advantageous
to know the facts and to state them with
accuracy"

CONGRESSMAN WARMER ON
SILVER.


n Che meeting of the ti.Monopoly
League at the Metropolitan Hotel, New
York City, last Wednesday evening,
Congressman Warner, of Ohio, made q
forcible speech in behalf OF silver. There
was a great body of facts and deductions,
he said, that urged the continuance OF
gold and silver as the money metals OF
the world. From the earliest periods OF
history it was the right Of the worlds
citizens to have both Of these metals for
money. Twelve years ago a change had
come and it was sought to throw out sill
yer. What had been the result through.
out the world? Prices had fallen at least
1874 per cent. Was this a change in
lands, properties, labor. or a change in
that by which they were measured ?
The change was in the measure. From
1850 to 1875 the world produced $780,.
600, 900 of gold and something over half
that sum in silver. In the MINIS of Eu-
rope there was coined more Than $780,.
600, 600 annually. During that period
wealth increased as it had never been be-
fore. Then start with 1875, when the
production of gold went down to $685..
600, 600 a year, and what addition had
there been to the worlds stock of money?
None. Europe coined nothing to speak
Of in gold, and no silver. The popula.
ton of America in that time had in.
reased more than fifteen millions. Now
the potent question was if the money
supply was shut off where was the money
to come from to supply the 100, DOC. 900
OF population a decade hence? Applause
and cries OF "G~reenbacks. u Was the
country to do without money for this in.
creased population: The result to fol.
low would be the same as would be ex.
perienced at the present time, with the
population at a known point, if the
money of the country was reduced by
$40, 600, 600.
What would be the effect of the
doing away with silver upon the
business of the country? Production
could not be carried on with falling
prices. The manufacturer would be COM.
PEELED to reduce wages and adjust every
thing to meet the reduction in prices,
and that road would eventually lead to
bankruptcy. No country could prosper
with prices continually tending down.
ward, and it was a fact that there never
had been a period OF depression that had
not been preceded by a contraction of
the volume OF money.
Referring to the Presidents message,
Mr.. Warner said that Mr.. Cleveland had
announced that So, 900, 600 of gold were
going out of the Treasury each month in
exchange for silver bullion. There was
something strange about that. Silver
bullion could be purchased by silver dol
lars just as we'll as gold dollars could buy
it. A friend had handed him q paper in
which it was announced that the silver
dollars were worth only sevcnty-nine
cents. He had asked his friend if he had
any silver dollars that he cared to sell
for eighty-nine cents. Laughter Why
did the New York papers persistently
publish so false a statement? Every
body knew that silver coins were worth
just as much everywhere in the United
States as gold coins. In conclusion Mr..
Warner prophesied that the Forty.ninth
Congress would not stop the coinage of
silver without providing a substitute.
