MONETARY DISTRIBUTION.

II rs FAULTY AND TENDS TO DrPRrss TRADE
r. @. Dun a Co.'s weekly review Of trade
says: The monetary pressure, of which so
many warnings have been given, has
operated this week 10 modify an improve
ment in general trade due to excellent crop
prospects. 1t is quite the fashion in stock
exchange circles to represent the rise in
lending rates as artificial, and intended 10
affect prices of stocks, but the truth that
speculation Of various sorts had previously
withdrawn too much money from the sup.
port Of legitimate business and productive
industry, and the tendency of apprehension
as to the future has been to cut down time
loans still farther, while many of the lenders
have preferred to place their money on call
with readily negotiable collaterals. The
treasury, meanwhile, has been collecting its
surplus revenue from the people ut large,
but dsbursing it to holders of bonds and to
lenders at monetary centers. The result has
tended for months to cause faulty distri-
button of the monetary supply.
The suspension of important mills results
| in greater caution as to loans, and quick
arrest OF purchases of materials for wool and
wool market has been completely unsettled
again, sales for the week amounting to only
| LOO, 900 lbs, all in small lots, and conces-
sions of to ? cents would be necessary TO
move large lots. At Philadelphia the mon
ey market is tight and the banks scrutinize
closely because they have little to spare. At
Boston banks supply customers but discrim-
mate very closely. Here the demand for
commercial paper is very light, and four
months paper ranges from to ! 1-2 per
cent. The money markets of interior cities
are far better supplied.
From all quarters improvement in bust.
ness is reported, excepting rs to sugar, for
which the demand has been much effected
by the operations of the trust, aud raw is
cent lower. The splendid crop prospect be-
gin to have their legitimate effect upon
prices Of breadstutis and provisions. The
speculative movement in wheat has been de-
leated by liberal receipts from the farms, and
when the farmers market freely early in the
,eason the prospect for fall trade is excellent
and monetary pressure is not usually of long
duration.
The iron aud steel business appears still
more encouraging, but the rapid increase in
iupply gives consumers more confidence in
over prices. Secretary WINDOWS conf
ience that bonds would bc offered freely in
Ease OF an advance in the rates for money
,ppears to have been justified thus far. The
offerings and purchases this week have beer
quite liberal. The Treasury neverth eless
colds g., ,0O0, 0o0 more cash than IL held last
Saturday, and, as has explained, bond pur'
:hasers do not put much money at the right
Ipot TO meet commercial needs. Happily
oreign trade at present threatens no drain.

A CRUSADE AGAINST THE LIQUOR TRADE.
A crusade was started on Saturday In Dan
bury against the liquor trade. Judge Howard
Scott on that day presented to the county
commissioners remonstrance signed by hall
hundred citizens protesting against the
granting of more than twenty saloon licenses.
There are now forty saloons doing business
in that place. The twenty objected to are
almost all situated in White street, thor
oughfare which has a most unsnviabls repu-
tation on account of its toughness. The
liquor dealers propose making a vigorous
fight and declare the whole movement was
started by John Fenton for prominent
G. A. R. man and Republican who was re-
Gently defeated for alderman, as he claimed,
by the rum interest. A hearing on the mat
tor will be granted in a few days. The Sun.
day closing law is also to be vigorously
enforced. The chief of the fire department.,
Morris Meyers, a cigar manufacturer and re-
tail dealer, was arrested Saturday charged
with keeping his store open on the previous
Sunday.
