Dun's Trade Review for the Week 5ust
Ended.
New York, October 5.-R. g. Dun & com

great wheat speculation has been the ab-
sorbing feature this week for, though the
September corner came to an end with
heavy losses for sellers, It left bls market in
other operations were easHy obtained;
with December wheat $50 higher, there
came heavy selling and sharp reactious
but the state of the market IS stIl against all
reasons, as wheat sells for more at Chicago
than at Liverpool, and at one time it would
have paid to ship wheat back from Antwerp
to New York. New York sales Of wheat
amounted to los, 4S5, 900 bushels, more than.
three times the entire Visibly supply and
prices closed $50 higher than a week ago.
Corn advanced cents with sales Of 49,
900. 600 bushels and oats q fraGIOn higher
The speculative fever was felt in each
market, and pork rose 81 per barrel lard
30 cents, and hogs % cents per 100 pounds
Coffee rose cent, with sales of $4,000
bags, and oil nearly i cent with sales Of
6, TBS, 900 barrels.
In cotton there was a slight decline, with
sales Of 1856, 600 bales.
The wool market has been steadily
strengthening, with advances IN fleece and
sOmbed, but the average Of ISS qualities Is
hardly Q quarter Of cent higher than Sep
tember.
Reports from interior points are uniform
iy favorable, outside OF the 1nttuSnC5 or vel
low fever. at Louisville and some other
points considerable stringeRCy resulted from
interruption Of remittances, and self defens-
i've measure of banks, but the situation IS
considerably improved. at many western
points the tenor of reports Is generally rag
ged.
There is less complaint as to collections,
and money Is increasing in demand and the
volume of business Is charging Outside or
New York, bank clearinzs show q gam OF
1O050 per cent over last year, with q gain oil
1O036 per cent here. But they are greatly
sWeued by speculation at Chicago and other
points.
The demand for iron increases, and at
Philadelphia the advance in pig iron Is
deemed equal to about 81 per ton, while re-
markable improvement Is seen IN the mar
ket for bar iron, so long depressed. Steel
rails do not ADVANCE, but the sale of 10000
tons by eastern and 10000 tons by western
mills are reported.
/ In the boot and shoe trade reports are
/ growing more satisfactory.
The stock market has Witnessed much

which has developed since his speech IN the

arrive In Chicago about the 18th or 18th OF
October. There is nothing serious in his
present indispO sitiOn, and his c3ncsling OF
the East Saginaw date was caused simply by
a desire to husband his voice.

Guests OF Philadelphia Veterinary Eat
Horse Flesh for Dinner.
PHILADELPHIAs Pa, October S.-One day
last week Dr.. Rush S. Hindekeeper, chief OF
the veterinary school Of the university OF
Pennsylvania, and prominent figure in
Philadelphia society, gave a dinner to g
number OF friends at the Philadelphia club
FOR the last thirteen years DR.. HlndeEeepel
mas owned famous grey mare, a hunter
and 6Ue6ple chaser, named Pandora. at the
dinner last week one Of the principal dishes
on the menu card was ''hlet a Ia Pandora .;
The guests supposed that the dish was named
IN honor Of the old steeple chaser whom
they had seen take many ditch and many
fence and came up the winner of many an
exciting race. After the tffilet'' had been
eaten and pronounced very tOOthsOme by
the guests Dr.. Hindekeeper remarked that
ne was glad Ot.the guests appreciation Of
his favOrite horse, 'ifor,' . ne said, siyou have
Just eaten her."
Pandora was shot. She was 20 years old
and on account Of lameness in the feet shs
became burden to herself. Dr.. Hinde-
keeper IN speaking of the dinner at which
the Pandora was devoured said: Give
years ago one Of the biggest restaurants n
Berlin sold out and the bills for beef fur
nlshed were all presented by horse dealers.
All morse meet IS as good as beef. it Is
pity horse meat IS not eaten IN this country
A horse would not have to be worn out and
would bring a good price for meat. People
in this city eat beef great deal more unfit
for food than good horse meat. There are
125sOOO human deaths IN this country every
from tuberculosis. Nearly half of them are
the result OF eating diseased beef"

COLUMBIA, S. c., October Remarkable
weather is reported from a section of Cole
ton county, In this state fourteen miles
square. For four months following the
great earthquake of 1856, there was an al
most continued drouth, during which the
total rainfall did not exceed two inches.
Streams and springs dried up, crops and

was difficult for people to obtain good
drinking water. A little over two months

seven cons cuJiVe days there were only two
on which it didn't rain. Ali the low lands
have been turned into lakes. No crops have
been made and the people are consequently
IN a deplOrabie condition.
