II. G.. Dun's weekly review of trade says:
Foreign influences have again disturbed the
money market a little and increased the
present conservatism of feeling. Directly,
the effect here should be slight, but il Is
impossible TO say how the already strained
condition at London may be affected, and
serious pressure at London would be felt in
sales of securities here. The prospect for
"A new railroad building, and consequently
for rail production, is not helped by the
monetary situation, and stocks have been
considerably weakened. But there IS moro
active speculation in breadstuns, pork
products and cotton. which have all adj
vanced, and the outlook for farmers has
rarely been better at this season than IL Is
now. OF the great industries, nearly all
are expanding and employing labor fully
but the coke strike and other causes have
produced remarkable shrinkage I'm the
output OF iron. Wheat rose 49Ac, but re-
acted about 1c Saturday, sales for the week
being SO, 900, 600 bu. Considering that
western receipts steadily exceed last years
while the reports OF foreign scarcity are not
sustained by exports, which still fall far
behind last years, the speculation Is
venturesome. Corn has advanced 4Lc and
oats 2ISc for the week on rather larger
scales than usual. and cotton has risen &c.
But all the speculative markets have To
reckon with the possibility of scarce money
before long, as the decline from the city TO
