a large demand az Cleveland and Detroit, /
strong at per cent. at Milwaukee, tight at |
Savannah and with good demand at Den
yer, but easy at Kansas City and easier, in
spite of the demand, at New Orleans. Rates
at New York have varied widely, and the
treasury has taken in during the week
about e. 900, 900 more than il has put out,
new silver notes included. Tbe demand

THE GREAT INDUSTRIES.
The great industries are doing more on
the whole than at any time in the past.
While the iron production is at the maxi
mum. ard the market at Philadelphia is
every mixed. iron seems stronger and steel
weaver. The best foundry iron ia I'M
cha ged here, at Philadelphia and Pitts-
burg, but Bessemer iron IS weak and at
PIttsburg lower, with steel rails 50 cents
lower. Disagreements in the association
are reported, and the market here Is demon
allied, with sales reported at fZ9 at the mill
In bar and plate iron large orders are less
frequent, but the mills are busy, aud small
orders are active.
COTTON LOWER.
Cotton s one-quarter Of a cent lower

and takangs by northern spinners fully up
pfi IS, because Of the advance on bread
stuffs, potatoes and dairy products, is
fraction higher than a week ago, and |
SO per cent. higher than a year ago. This
accounts IN part for the enormous volums |
of exchanges throughout the country, but |
there remains an apparent increase Of over
per cent in the volume Of business, exclu-
ave Of the difference in prices.
