Ground anthracite coal has jet-like luster,

More Snap to Trade-Prospects Continue
Favorable for q Large Fall Business
INDIANAPOLIS Aug. 8.
Trade opens this week fairly active. and the
volume of business thus far this month has
shown handsome increase over that of the
corresponding period Of 1885. Especially is this
true with grocers and dry goods men. Grocers
report their trade to be in excess Of expectations
and collections quite satisfactory. Both sugars
and coffees continue in the strong position of
some time past, with a good consumptive de-
mand. Foreign fruits, as WELL are firm, and sell
ing freely for this season of the year. All along
the line dry goods are firm, with tendency to
higher rather than lower prices The produce
markets move along much in the same ruts of
some days past, with few fluctuations in
values. Provisions rule steady at the range
of prices last week. There is brisk demand,
and stocks getting well reduced. The wool
market retains its firm tone, with tendency to
pull prices Eastern papers speak of the mar
ket quiet, but fair business in progress
Prices are supported firmly, and on some grades
are showing increased strength from day to day
This is true particularly of medium wools and
they still have the preference over fine woods
with manufacturers The price of wool has ad-

is full of encouragement Already all styles Of
woollen goods are showing increased sympathy
with WOOL Stocks of goods are moderate and
prices are firm. Light weight goods have been
opened generally at last years prices, but IN
some cases an advance has been obtained. The
fear of labor troubles is felt among manufactur
ers, and should they occur, they would have
disastrous effect on both wool and wooden
goods. On the contrary, If these troubles are
avoided. and labor fairly and proftably en-
ployed, the effect will be good in all branches OF
trade. This is what we look for and what We
hope for during the coming fall and winter.
There is a big speculative feeling in the West.
Too much of it, in fact, for thus carly in the
season. If the Western holders of wool should
push prices up too high, higher than any of the
conditions warrant, they would feel obliged to
weaken, and thus would result Generalization
along the whole line. A healthy advance can be
sustained and is being sustained Fine woods
have been comparatively quiet, but are held
firm. Fine woods, it should be remembered, ruled
very low and weak before the spring clip opened.
Manufacturers who these woods stocked Up
quite freely at that time, and also bought con-
siderable of the Australian wool and Montevideo
woods. They are not therefore, in need of sup
plies just now, and are holding off in anticipa-
ton of better times later in the season. Fine
woods, however, as Arm any other kind,
the same in either case
In the local market, corn, wheat and oats are
in good request, at prices shade higher than on
Saturday. Receipts are liberal Little said
about futures. Prices to-day ranged as follows:

The London Grain Market.

LONDON, Aug. 9.-The Mark Lane Express,
in its review of the British grain trade during
the past week. says: 1.-THE weather has been un-
favorable for wheats. Prices are steady. The
sales of English wheat during the past week
were 41,173 quarters, at Bis Sd, against 3S. 07O
quarters at33s Cd during the corresponding period
last year. Oats are rather dear. Bareys are
in favor of sellers The foreign W heat trade is
devoid of feature. Corn Is. slow of sale; mixed
American on the spot is scarce and Cd dearer
Four cargoes of wheat arrived. Four cargoes
were sold, including one of Californian at 33s,
and one of Oregon at 33s, Cd. One cargo re-
manned. Trade forward suffers from apathy.
The market to-day was quiet. There was only
very small supply of English wheats, which
sold at fully the late rates. English Hour was
steady and not in favor of buyers There was
an excessive supply Of foreign and the market
for it was depressed. American mixed corn is
very scarce and brings 2ls ex ship Barley was
firm, but quiet. Oats were steady. Beans and
peas were cd learer.
