CONDITION OF THE CROPS.


e
Thcro Has Recn Frost. u Worry Little
Damage was Done.
W~AsurNaroN, Sept. .. - Tho following
monthly weather crop bulletin has been is
sued by the weather bureau; August WAS
warmer than usual on the Atlantic coast, In
the lower lake region, Michigan and in all
the states on the Pacific coast, but cooler
than the average temperature for August
throughout the central valleys. Frosts &C.
Cured in the extreme northwest about the
twentieth, but the wheat crop was so well
advanced that only very slight damage oc.
Cured in the extreme northern portions of
Minnesota and Moth Dakota. Frost
reached the northern boundary Of Iowa,
but reports generally indicate that no ma
terial injury resulted to the corn crop. Pre-
coding the occurrence of these frosts, warn
ings were sent out by this service to the
cranberry and tobacco regions of Wiscon-
sin, which enabled the farmers to take the
usual precautions and prevent the injury of
these crops. The reports indicate that the
frosts were quite severe In exposed local.
ties in this region. and that the cranberry
orop was injured, although doubtless much
benefit must have resulted from the frost
warnings.
The rainfall was greater than usual i'll
the interior New England and Middle At
lantic states. The rainfall was also in ex-
cess from the lake region westward to the
Pacific coast, along the northern boundary
of the United States, and in the states of
the central Mississippi valley. Portions OF
Texas and Colorado also report limited
areas of excessive rain. The corn crop is
and will probably require about two
more Of favorable weather TO place
it beyond injury from frost. or course
this does not apply to the condition of the
crop in southern Kansas, and thence east
ward to Tennessee and Kentucky, where
he crop is now we'll advanced.

THE FATE OF TRADE.
X. &. Dun & Co.'s Weekly Review of Bust
ness in the United States.

II. G. Dun & Co.'S Weekly Review of Bust
ness in the United States.
The business failures occurring through
out the country during the last seven days,
as reported to Il. G. Dun& Co, the Mercan-
tile agency, by telegraph, number, for the
United States, 204. and for Canada, 90, or a
total Of 228, as compared with a total of PIG
last week, aud 227 the week previous to the
last. For the corresponding week of last
year tho figures were 1S9, representing 1G5
failures in the United States and "a in tho
Dominion of Canada.
Referring to general business, the report
says: As much depends upon the balance
of foreign trade, it is highly important that
the imports for July exceed the exports by
only S3,S0O,0N instead of $23,000,00 0 Inst
year, and for August thus far the increase
in exports at New York is 1876 per cent.
while in imports there is a decrease of Is
per cent. Prices of all commodities have
declined LIB per cent. for the past week,
yielding a little every day, and there is
every reason to expect that exports of pro-
ducts will now be free and large. Unless
speculation lnterferes an enormous increase
In exports may reasonably be anticipated,
with a large movement of gold this way
unless foreign holders of securities prefer
to realize.
Iha speculation in grain was helped for q
day or W by the report that Russia WAS
about to impose a tax on exports Of wheat.
This was quickly denied, and the price de-
cllned, and over four cents lower for the
week. The exports of wheat for the week
are about six times those of last year,
though somewhat less than a year NC for
fiour, and much less for corn. The price
of corn declined five cents for the week.
though oats rose one cent per bushel. Crop
prospects are in all respects exceedingly
bright, and the reports of injury by frost
do not appear TO affect any considerable
proportion of the crop. There is every
reagon to suppose that the yield of wheat
will be much larger than the 544, OOO, 600
bushels estimated by the agricultural de-
