needed money. She said that she was
residing voluntarily with DR.. Seward at
Goshen and that she expected within a
short time to be completely restored to
health.

THE GRAIN TRADE. CROPS, &C.

| The Cincinnati Price Current of July SO.h
says
Rain has been deficient the past week in a
large portion of the West, and the corn crop In
| many districts. notably in Indiana and I'LL.
nois as well as more or less In other States. is
| showing the effect OF lack of moisture. Pasture
, Is also being i'm paired in many sections from
| the same cause. The corn crop as whole has
not fully maintained its average condition, but
| more of warmth and of moisture at this juno
ture would afford important relief, without
which promptly considerable area will soon
be beyo nd restoration. A good rain is now
falling in this locality, and If 1t be general it
will change the situation very favorably for
corn.
Ia other grain crops the weeks returns show
no essential change IN the average Indication.
The threshing reports of winter wheat In the
West maintain evidence OF good yield, fully
equaling and probably exceeding calculations
a month ago. The spring wheat crop in the
Northwest is in irregular condition, and al
though in many districts is especially prOmis
ing the general average promise does not ap-
pear to be higher than mouth ago.
The weeks marketing OF wheat Ia the West

sual advance In values, while the requirements

ton of evidence Of the great shortage In wheat
and rye production in Europe. will give stimu-
lus to the opposite view.
At Chicago the wheat market has had a rance
OF 43sgi12c during the week, closing a fraction
lower than a week ago.
TIE corn market at Chicago has been espe-
cially unsettled during the week, portion of
the time considerably excited-the range be-
Ing $50 for September, closing 17zc higher than
week ago. Approximations concerning the
condition of the growing crop were a factor in
speculative operations at times.
The later information in regard to crops
abroad does not change the general situation
essentially-being less favorable In regard to
R1ssia,and to some extent also as to Hungary.
but more encouraging as to France, England.
