II. G. Dun & Corpany's weekly review of
trade says:
In all aspects the business situation APP
pears more favorable than "a week ago.
There has been general, though moderate.
IMPROVEMENT In distribution; manufactures
are more fully employed, several great Ia
Dor controversies have ended. and crop re-
ports are somewhat more satisfactory.
Moderate exports and better crop reports
lead to lower prices Wheat receipts at the
West In four days of this week have been
8, 295, 500 bushels. while Atlantic exports
have been only 1,474, COS bushels, and the
price has declined almost . cents TO SOS
cents for August. The certainty that for
eign crops, however in doubt as yet, Will at
all events be much better than those OF
last year helps receipts here TO depress
prices Corn is scarce for early delivery,
and crop prospects improve, but so little
that the price is unchanged at 6313 cents,
and oats are shade stronger at 80 cents.
Accounts Of cholera in Russia have caused
heavy unloading Of pork, which has fallen
81 per barrel. and hogs "a cent, and lard a
fraction lower, while oil has also declined
a fraction. Cotton is further depressed TO
RI cents by the great accumulation of un-
sold stocks and better reports OF the COM
ing crop, but while in other speculative
markets sales have been small for the week
those of cotton reached 500, 600 bales

Cholera Is Now Epidemic at Hamburg
and Havrc.
A dispatch from Reshd. in the province
OF Ghilan states that every day hundreds
of persons are dying there from cholera.
Reshd is very unhealthy place. and SAM
tary methods are unknown. 1t lies sixteen
miles from Enzellee, its port on the
Caspian Sea, and Is the center of
the importing trade OF the province in
which II is located. Most of the imports
are from Russia. The population OF the
town is about $4,000. Following the report
from Teheran comes information of most
alarming character from Europe. United
States Consul Johnson at Hamburg reports
that he is advised officially by the govern
ment health officer Of that city OF the pres
ence of Asiatic cholera and many doaths
there, and he has accordingly refused to
issue bills of health TO departing vessels.
Consul Williams at Havre reports an cpl
demic OF Asiatic cholera at that place with
many deaths. and advises an inspection of
the fast liner La Touraine. These facts
have been promptly communicated TO the
health officers at Staten Island, and every
precaution will 30 taken by them In the
matter; especially in view OF the fact
that the epidemic has now reached two of
the NEST important ports in Europe with
which the United States has direct and
rapid communication. Although no real
fear that the cholera will reach the shores
of the United States is expressed by the
authorities Of the Treasury Department,
circulars have been issued to customs OFF,

had obtained passage on the French steamer
and among whom the scourge was liable 10
