of t1znty-three cal loaded solid with
| dry goods, consigned to a new firm in

other q train of sixteen cars loaded with
coffee. They are expected to make the

valued at 5000 900.
The amount of tobacco grown in Ger
many of late years has been considerable.
The effect upon American trade has been
| felt to some extent. The German pro-
duction in lSS6-S7 was 81 1897 200 pounds,
while the average production for fifteen
years has been SO 1864 900 pounds annu-
ally. Poor crop conditions in 1SS6-87
| caused falling off in production. The
Western Tobacco Journal says that to
the great body of American trade it is a
revelation that so much tobacco is grown
III Germany, and will explain the dull
ness in late years in the German export
business.
The following is clipped from the New
York Financial Chronicle: ''Too little is
really known of the supplies that Russia
can furnish. 1t appears to be certain
that everything is being done to hasten
forward exports from Russia. Whether
this isadue to fear that winter may in
terrupt navigation to the Black sea when
the Baltic ports are closed by ice, or
whether there is a desire TO influence pub
lie opinion by running up the value of the
rouble, or whether, finally, there are po-
litical or financial fears at work, there is
suspicion that the present rate of export
cannot be maintained. OF course it
is to be recollected that the Russian
peasants have long been in financial diff
ticulties, and it is natural therefore that
thew SnOul0 take ADVANTAGE good
prices to hurry their crops to market But
the fact remains, nevertheless, that
there is a suspicion that something more
is at work. 1t is noteworthy that while
the exports of Russia are not SO large,
and the finance minister is initiating the
currency on the ground of the magnitude
and prosperity of trade, numerous fail
ures are reported at St. Petersburg and
elsewhere -

| Fort WORTH, TEX, Dec. II. 1888.
| There has been no change III the condi-
| tions of trade ON this market to-day; mol
III the past week has there been any i'm
portant feature to characterize dealings
A decline of few points in cotton yes
| terday, which has not been affected to-
day, has been the only change
in quotations for the seven days
ending to-day. The receipts of
cotton have been somewhat curtailed by
bad weather and roads, but the average
each day has not been small. OF course
not half the cotton in the surrounding
| country has been placed on the market
yet, so definite estimates on the crop
cannot yet be made, but growers are free
to assert that the damage by late storms
has not been so great as was feared, and
the late pickings, though slightly off in
quality, are by no means of Door
grade.
The receipts of grain for the week have
not been heavy, marketing having been
INSTRUCTED by the same causes which OPP
Grated against the bringing in of cotton {;
and prices have undergone no important
change.
Poultry has gone up within week
but quotations now are firm.
Dealers in general merchandise say the
prices recently made on coffees, sugars
and hog products appear firm now.
Shipments from New York last week to
British markets consists of 500 cattle,
1880 quarters of beef and 23S sheep.
The exports from Ireland to Great
Britain for the week ending the Sd of
November consists of % 1852 cattle and
1851 sheep.
There has been an increase of 6l24 in
the number of postoffices in the United
States the past fiscal year-an index of
the progress of the population and devel-
opment of the country. The total num-
Der of postoffices now is 81 1916.
Says the Chicago Journal: A man
came i'll last week with a load of common
steers that looked cheap when he started
from home, but looked cheaper when
sold out and secured his account sale, -
as he had just so cents profit, remarking
as he folded the bill that he 'fwouldn t

From Minneapolis comes goodly grist
of wheat news. Inquiry among elevator
men and millers developed the fact that
country reserves were about 6 900 ZOO
bushels, as against 90 600 900 bushels q
year ago, and that half of the reserves
was of poor quality. About 500 cars
were rejected out of 900 received as being
