stronger. Coffee and sugar were held with.
out break, but cotton fell 5-16c on sales OF
500, 900 bales, and oil declined SIC. Ex-
ports of products from New York ior tnree
weeks Of August are % per cent smaller
than last years, and the recent changes 90
not yet suffice to bring exportaole staples
down tothe parity of foreign market
IRON Is STRONG.
The iron industry still shows strong de-
mand for finished products, with some
stiffening in prices, but the supply OF pig
iron is so large that prices are snaoeu IN
urgency to sell. The market ior wooi -
QUILL and prices a little lower, the supply OF
foreign goods offered being very large. The
demand for cotton goods has been fair, out
prices do not change. Capable observers
publish warnings that q halt is needed In
the leather and hides market, prices having
risen so far as to threaten reaction.
The reports from other cities, with very
few exceptions, indicate that larger trade
than ever before is in progress, with satis-
factory collections and bright outlook.
Crop reports are less discouraglng, though
the yield must fall below early antlcipatlons
as to grain. New Orleans reports very en-
couraging prospects as to cotton and Calves
ton as well, but jacksonville reports dull
trade and discoursging outlook. At st.
Louis business is of fair volume, but some
what affected by injury to crops
CONDITION ENCOURAGING.
At Kansas CITY trade is healthy, particu-
larly in live stock and packing. Milwaukee
reports that crops will average fairly and
Minneapolis mills have large output of
-four at advancing prices. The receipts of
grain, seeds, dressed beef and cheese at
Chicago are somewhat below last years; in
butter the decrease is 40 per cent, in hides
SO per cent, and in cattle considerable. But
there is heavy increase in hogs, gain OF
100 per cent in lard and some increase in
cured meats and wool, and sales of dry
goods and other merchandise exceed last
years. Philadelphia notes large business
in leather, but wool is quiet. In general,
the condition OF legitimate business is en-
coursging, unless monetary pressure or
labor controversies interfere. The business
failures occurring throughout the country
during the past seven days number 1872 as
compared with 1877 last week. For the cor
responding week last year the figures were

The Expo,,tiou Handbook.

The Handbook and Guide of the Pitts
burg Exposition for the current year has
just been turned out by the press of Percy
f. Smith. 1t is one of the handsomest
books of the kind ever issued in this city,

is followed by a description of the good
things in store for visitors to the Exposition
this year. Then comes mention of the
points of interes. and vast industries of
Plttsburg, a description of Allegheny and
Schenley Park, with biography and por-
trait of Robert Carnahan, and other matter
that cannot fail to be of interest
geographically the book is beauty. 1t
is profusely illustrated, printed on heavy
book paper and arranged with degree OF
taste and style that is seldom equaled.
Copies of the book can be obtained at the
office of Percy F. Smith, 80 and 55 Virgin
alley.

Do YOU want special bargain in musi-
cal instrument of any kind? If so go into
Hamilton's, Fifth avenue. When you get a
bargain there it amounts to something, as
every instrument they offer you has record
established. It's not an inducement to offer
cheap unknown goods at special prices, as
almost any price is dear for them. Time
proves all things, and especially is this SO
in pianos and organs. Their quality is
proven by their endurance. In the pianos
and organs Hamilton offers you special
inducements, and are world renowned.
Such names as Decker, Knabe, Fisher and
Estey are known the world over as leaders.
Their tone and durability is perfect. Go
into Hamilton's now and you will be sur
prised at the low prices offered.

TREATS FOR MUSIC LOVERS.
The Carnegie Library Organ In Good shape
for Future Concerts.

The Carnegie Library Organ In Good shape
for Future Concerts.
Since the fourteenth organ recital at Car
negie Hall, City Organist Wales has placed
the Roosevelt. organ in thorough aud per-
feet tune, taking advantage of the even
temperature that has prevailed for the
last ten days. The great instrument has
never been exactly adjusted in tune since it
was first used, owing to variations in heat
and cold which prevailed during the month
of February, when it was erected and tuned.
Some revoicing and toning down of the
pipes, notably in the reed stop, was also
found necessary. The organ is now In per-
feet condition, fact that will
be duly appreciated by lovers
of music. From this time forward
many novelties in vocal music and combina-
ton of the organ with orchestral instru-
ments may be expected. At the sixteenth
recital, next Saturday, the great Saxophone
quartet of the Grand Army Band will be a
portion of the programme. The fifteenth
recital will be given this afternoon, with a
programme OF very pleasing numbers. The
soprano vocalist is Miss Louise Germer, Of
Chicago, visitor in the city. Organist
Wales programme is as follows:
