cradle of gain in live stock, wool and

Boot and shoe sales are little slack. but
in dry goods and clothing last years sales
are surpassed and the payments are good
Cleveland notes larger trade than last
year, though It's seasonably quiet at pres
ent, and substantially the same is reported
from Detroitan ST. Paul. Minneapolis in
creases its weeks output of flour above
100, 900 barrels and reports strong lumber
market. Trade is good at Omaha and Den
yer, but dull and inactive at Jacksonville.
The live stock movement at Kansas City IS
large, but at low prices.
A rather better tone is reported in the
Philadelphia iron market. The shipments
for six months have been 113, POS tons, and
sales made already cover about three
months more of production.
The large consumption of copper sus-
tains the price at IL cents, and the manipu-
latious have placed tin at S2l.55, but lead is
dull at 4.52.
| Coal is lower
Wool is dull and is limited in demand. No
definite Improvement is seen in the wooden
goods market.
Little is doing at present in knit goods.
The speculative markets have been curl
ously variable. Wheat is more than 15
cent lower than week ago, notwithstand-
| ing some evidence Of injury from drought;
the stock carried over from the last crop
year is estimated as 60,000,0 00 to $1,000, 900
bushels, which, with yield even smaller
than is now expected, will more than meet
all the probable requirements. Corn has
advanced nearly = a cent higher again in
spite of the favorable crop prospects. Hogs
and pork products are weaker, and coffee
is unchanged, though the distribution is
very moderate. Raw sugar has been adj
vanced 1-16 of a cent, though refined IS
lower and the Spreclfles product is offered
below that of the trust The general aver
age of prices of commodities is nearly 1per
cent. lower than week ago and with no
set back in the crop prospects considerably
lower quotations seem probable.
The treasury has taken in 81, 100000
more than it has paid out during the past
week. although it has purchased $4,000
ounces of silver at price not much less
than 81. 10. Foreign trade continues un-
satisfactory, as respects the monetary fu-
ture, because, the merchandise exports
from New York for the first half of July
fall 90 per cent, below those of the same
markable increase in imports here, for two
weeks the gain being over 40 per cent.
The bsSineSs failures occurring through
out the country during the last seven days
number 207 as compared with total Of
1877 last week. For the corresponding weel
of last year the'tigures were POS.
THREW ASIDE HER STICK.
Mrs. S. Finke, 497 Hudson street, New
York, writes:
''Allcock's porus plasters have been ;
great comfort to me in winter. Iuse then
as chest protectors; they break up cole
in few hours if placed one on the ches
and two under the shoulder blades.
''Last winer was much crippled will
rheumatism in my knee; L had tried diff
ferent remedies without avail, then
covered the whole knee joint with two All
! cocks porus plasters and kept them on TO
four days, when l changed them. l go
better all the time, and in two weeks wa
entirely well and threw aside my stick"
